    Great experience from the hospitality to the quality of food

    Absolutely loved Current. It looks out at the Hudson River and we had a beautiful sunset.
    The staff was incredible leading up to the event: friendly, accommodating, and organized. At the event all of the servers and bartenders were friendly, proactive, and took great care of our guests. In the space, the ceiling lighting offered colorful changes to match the ambiance, with no extra lighting required.
    We never expected to have chosen a venue where guests raved about the food so much. They really offer a lot at cocktail hour, then guests were even more surprised to an excellent sit down dinner. Later in the night, they accommodated a special request soup that’s traditional for Colombian weddings, and their suggested tequila cart was a big hit.
    On top of that, this place was really well-priced for what they offer, especially given that food, tables, linens, etc are all included. Could not recommend more!

    An unforgettable wedding!

    We are so, so happy that we chose Current for our wedding! The venue was gorgeous with beautiful views, the food and drinks are incredible (seriously, we are *still* getting compliments from our guests), and the staff is top-notch. Our guests also loved the location, being in the heart of Chelsea.


    From start to finish, the Pier 60 team made the process easy for us — Chynna was extremely accommodating and our event manager, Stephanie, was very responsive and helpful throughout the entire process. The actual wedding day went so smoothly thanks to the amazing staff. They were so on top of it, anticipating my every need and making the day run seamlessly, on-time, and stress-free. For the level of service and the quality of food, drinks, and experience, Pier 60/Current is a pretty unbeatable value — especially in NYC.

    Best experience having our wedding at the Lighthouse!

    We got married at the Lighthouse in September 2025, and had the absolute BEST experience! From the start of the process working with Chynna to secure a date, to the day of coordination with Katie and Chynna, we could not have asked for better support and professionalism. The day itself was flawless, from the food to the flow of the party. It was everything we wanted and more, and we would not have changed a thing!

    Best venue ever!

    We got married at Current in early June 2025 and I could not have imagined having a better experience or wedding. From the initial conversations with Samantha F to the final touches we made with our coordinator (Samantha G!) , we were constantly impressed with their communication, willingness to answer any question and professionalism. We chose the venue for the location, included items (food, alcohol, bridal suite, event planner, bridal tenant AND mother of the bride tenant (important!!!!), linens, chairs, tables, so many to list) and vibe of the room. As a very minimalist bride, I wanted somewhere that didn't require a lot of decoration but still felt modern and classy and this was perfect! The ceiling lights and water views were stunning. The food was incredible (guests say best wedding food ever - as all the reviews say) and the service was just absolutely top notch. Every single one of my questions was answered through the process super quickly and all the staff go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and plan the wedding of your dreams.

    Best venue EVER!!!

    I feel so lucky to have been able to have my wedding at Pier Sixty - it was truly perfect. The food is some of the best food we’ve ever had, and the selection list is unreal. The staff and all the vendors were beyond helpful, so nice, and worked with us to ensure our vision came to life. The venue is also so gorgeous with floor to ceiling windows bringing an outside / inside feel. Everything was really just so great and I couldn’t be more thankful for The Pier Sixty Collection!!!

    Don’t Look Anywhere Else

    Seriously, there is no where else to look in NYC for your wedding venue. Thank you to the entire Pier Sixty team for all of your guidance, help, and support leading up to our wedding. We are beyond thrilled we chose Pier Sixty as our venue, and I can truly say there is no one better to work with than this team. They helped make the day and night run so smoothly, and it was better than our wildest expectations.

    We can't get over the level of attention, care, and detail Pier Sixty provided us. We're still in awe of the service we were given - Samantha, Joseph, and Smile were beyond incredible. They were always there every second to help with anything we may need.

    All we wanted was a room filled with our friends & family so we could celebrate with the people that matter most, and all of their help allowed us to put our focus on that rather than figuring out the details for the night. And the room sparkles at night in a way we hadn’t seen during all of our visits during the day - it felt like you’re floating on water with the incredible skyline & twinkling lights around you. I don't know how they do it - how they manage to know every trick in the game, serve food & drinks so elegantly & deliciously for such a huge crowd, and jump in with a solution to anything that was thrown their way.

    The attention to detail this team brings to these events is limitless, and we are so appreciative for all of the time they spent with us both on the day of our wedding and leading up to this point. They truly think of it all.

    Wedding - The Lighthouse at Pier 61 - January 2025

    There are not enough words in the English language to describe how special the Pier Sixty Collection – particularly The Lighthouse at Pier 61 – was for our wedding. We could not recommend it any higher!

    From the moment we stepped foot in the location to view it, we knew it was the perfect place to get married and it lived up to (and exceeded) the reputation and expectation. The staff was extremely helpful with everything from getting the contract signed, answering questions and providing guidance. As you can imagine, there are a million questions, and the team was super responsive and experienced.

    We really enjoyed that the venue had a dedicated list of experienced vendors. We chose all our vendors off the list, and it made the wedding planning process so much more straight forward. They were all experienced and intimate with the location, thus streamlining all conversations.
    The tasting programing was truly a special night – they made it feel like a mini wedding. One of the best parts of the Pier Sixty Collection is the food and drink options. We were simply floored with the quality of the food and drinks. It is difficult to cook in large volumes, but the food tasted as if you were at a Michelin starred restaurant. A big hit with our guests.

    The space itself is awe inspiring over the Hudson River. It is large, open and makes you feel welcomed. We got married at night under the city lights and it was spectacular. We did both the ceremony and reception at The Lighthouse and it was a perfect view.

    We could not be more grateful to our venue planner, Katie Sparks. She started working with us two months prior to the wedding day. She was on top of everything from planning, to questions, to ensuring that the day went off without a hitch. Our sales rep, Chynna Hill, also stayed involved throughout the process and through the wedding. On the day of, we also were provided with a bridal attendant who was fantastic. The amount of event staff that puts together your event is amazing – it keeps the party moving and fun. The team is very special.

    In summary, our experience was world-class from start to finish. Everything went so smoothly! It was a magical night.

    If you have the opportunity to get married or have an event at The Lighthouse – please do it!

    Incredible staff, amazing food, and perfect venues

    I had two great experiences with The Pier Sixty Collection. Both my wedding at Current and my work’s holiday party at Pier Sixty. The events were both unforgettable, and the staff was truly outstanding. I had the pleasure of working with Marlon, who was our wedding coordinator and worked our holiday party and I can’t speak highly enough of him. He goes above and beyond to ensure everything runs smoothly. Marlon does an incredible job of making sure guests are happy and the event flows seamlessly—he’s truly one of the best.

    Secondarily, the food is amazing. Friends and family still talk about the food that was served at our wedding months later!

    All in all, this is an amazing collection of venues with great staff and I hope to happily attend/host many more events here.

    No place like this one!

    We have nothing but glowing reviews for the entire team at Pier Sixty. From the initial steps with Gregg (and then Sam), to the final weeks of planning with Katie, we felt so comfortable and as stress free as possible. We looked at plenty of venues both in and around the tristate area, but it was a no-brainer where we should celebrate our marriage once we saw what the Current had to offer. The guests have been raving about the service, particularly the food, being amazing. Our bartenders were fabulous, and there were never any lines at the bars. The professionalism is unmatched. The entire team kept us on schedule and handled any issues (of which to my knowledge there were zero). They really prioritized myself and my now husband as being the guests of honor, and we never had to lift a finger or worry. Look no further!

    Great Venue

    I could not have picked a more exquisite place to have my wedding.  Current did an excellent job in decorating the venue from the lighting, to the service received in the bridal suite and the warm vibes and attentive service my guest and I received.
    Everyone who attended had nothing but great things to say.  It was well worth the money and time I spent organizing my wedding.  Not to mention the staff were all very professional and catered to all my needs and requests. I could not have picked a better venue.  
    I would highly recommend Chelsea Piers for future events!

    Amazing venue! Would do it all again!

    We got married at The Pier Sixty's Current in February and loved every aspect. We are so grateful for the exceptional work of Tanya, Greg, and all of the staff at Current for their meticulous attention to detail. Their expertise, dedication, and passion for their craft were simply outstanding, and they went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was attended to and executed flawlessly. We cannot recommend them highly enough to anyone planning their special day.

    Above & Beyond!!!

    I got married at the Lighthouse on 10/1/2021 and truly can’t get over what an amazing experience it was!! It was my perfect day. I never dreamed I could get married such a place, and it still seems unreal. After look at venue all over the tri state areas including East Long Island, I decided I wanted a full service venue. From my very first point of contact with Pier Sixty, they have been the ultimate professionals. Superb communication, upfront & transparent about pricing, thorough, attention to detail. I have to mention how thoughtful and accommodating they were during COVID. We did not have to postpone our wedding, but when I was concerned I may have to, Gregg always reassured me that I shouldn’t stress and they would accommodate any changes that needed to be made. That really put me at ease. The tasting even for future couples was genius!! Working with Marlon as our event coordinator was perfect. He’s so personable, candid, thoughtful, & professional. He was a calming presence on the wedding day and took care of so many things behind the scenes. The food at our wedding was a true highlight!! The quality and quantity of food included in the “base price” is very impressive!! We heard from so many people this was the best food they every had at a wedding. That meant a lot to me! The service was outstanding. They don’t cut corners. The bars were well stocked & never had a long line. The Lighthouse is such a beautiful venue with the sunset ceremony and open windows for cocktail hour. It was so dreamy. All the little details of the night I just can’t get over!! Having our own mini cocktail hour in the bridal suite to allow us to eat prior to greeting our guests! The way the seamlessly transform the space through the night. The bridal attendant was amazing. The parting gift of little chocolates to our guests. All the little things leave a lasting impression. I could go on!!! Anyway, if you’re even remotely considering one of the Pier Sixty venues… don’t even think about it any longer!! It’s an iconic venue and we had so many guests excited to even have the opportunity to attend an event here. What a night!!!

    So pleased with Current!!

    We got married on October 30th at Current and could not have been more thrilled with this venue! Gregg and Marlon worked with us to create the most seamless wedding-planning experience and event weekend - the teams here have the ability to both instill confidence that they can do this in their sleep while still making our wedding feel personalized and about us, not just something they've done a thousand times before. Our guests raved about the room, the food, and the service and we couldn't agree more. When pictures ran long, Marlon snuck me in via the kitchen so the guests wouldn't see my dress ahead of time :) Specific tip: definitely get the intermezzo, they are such a unique and impressive addition to the dance floor. Thanks to the whole team at Current / Chelsea Piers!!

    We had a wonderful wedding at Current! The staff was super professional and attentive. The food was simply phenomenal. The event coordination was perfect. Everything ran extremely smooth. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Everyone we met and spoke to at the venue was professional, helpful, accommodating and knowledgeable! From the sales representative to the wedding coordinator to the wait staff - simply perfect. Highly highly recommend!

    Our Fairytale Wedding

    Everything about the Lighthouse at Pier 61 was truly magical. Dreaming of a fairytale wedding, my fiancé and I fell in love with the lighthouse the moment we walked in. Gregory, the senior catering sales manager helped my dreams come true! We had to postpone our wedding twice, but Gregg was very professional, responsive and helpful throughout the whole process during the pandemic. Madeline was our amazing event manager who listened to our needs, organized everything in perfect detail. We were truly blown away with the beautiful setup and service. The staff made our guests feel welcomed and the food was exceptional. Look no further, the Pier sixty team goes above and beyond to shower you with a day to remember forever!

    Best Venue and Best Staff & Service

    Current is the best!!!!!!!! From my first meeting with Greg to our perfect wedding evening with Marlon, everything was perfect. Marlon was our day of coordinator and everyone needs to request to work with Marlon. We worked with Marlon closely for 6 weeks and he was beyond friendly, flexible, accommodating and tried to meet all our needs and requests. The day of he was there for every moment and question. Best food, service and venue!

    Amazing food, service, and venue!

    We had our June 2019 wedding at the Lighthouse and it could not have been a more beautiful day! The staff was helpful from beginning to end and all of our guests raved about the incredible food and amazing service! More than one person said that their glass was never empty and they couldn’t believe how nice and helpful the servers were. Every single thing that we ate that day was delicious, flavorful, and presented beautifully. The views were incredible and the event space was perfect. We are beyond happy with our wedding day at the Lighthouse and highly recommend the venue!

    Wedding Dreams Came True!

    From start to finish the Pier Sixty LLC. Group has been nothing short of extraordinary. My first call with Samantha Frederick, at The Lighthouse, I had been at a point of pure frustration. After at least 25 visits, calls, and quotes with venues throughout Long Island, Brooklyn, Westchester, Upstate, and Manhattan we finally stumbled upon The Lighthouse. It had been mine and my husband’s dream to get married on the water. I asked Samantha for pricing, which she openly gave. She was very straight forward and incredibly knowledgeable. Gave us all the pricing with no hidden fees and she told me to come in to see the venue. Unfortunately, I had to apologize and told her we couldn’t afford the venue and there was no point for us to come in. I knew we would fall in love and didn’t want to waste her time. Yet, she assured me Pier Sixty would work with me and she meant EVERY word. I got my Friday night (by preference) gorgeous August wedding.
    From the second we booked she had been my go-to person. She answered all 7,000,000 of my ridiculous questions and even gave suggestions after hearing my vision. She is down-to-earth, with a bubbly personality and an absolute PLEASURE to work with. When the time came to meet our event manager, she paired us up with Richard Martin. It was like one blessing to the next. He helped with our menu, setting up our décor, storing our stuff, came fully prepared with our menu to the group tasting. Richard is extremely professional and organized. He worked alongside our Day of Planner to ensure our day was exactly how we wanted. We couldn’t have asked for better treatment throughout. Thank you so much to Samantha, Richard, and the rest of the Pier Sixty team!!

    Phenomenal Wedding/Experience at Stunning Venue

    This venue is absolutely fantastic! I could not recommend it enough. Our wedding was this past weekend (May 18, 2019); everything ran smoothly and was perfect. The weather was beautiful, which only enhanced the already stunning venue. There are not very many venues like this in NYC and it truly is a gem. The food was delicious – our guests keep raving about it. We did go with a few enhancements (intermezzo, pretzel umbrella, snack cart) which I would definitely recommend since they were all a hit however, additional food is not necessary since they do give you plenty. I loved the option to have butlered desserts and so did our guests so everyone could stay out on the dance floor and have different options. The staff was wonderful! Everyone I encountered that night went above and beyond for us and added to the great experience. Our sales associate, Greg, and day-of coordinator, Rich, were magnificent. They both helped us create our perfect wedding celebration and were main drivers in our flawless and successful event. I am beyond happy with the outcome and it is worth every penny.

    Absolutely loved the venue!

    The venue was beyond gorgeous and the staff was super accommodating, responsive, friendly and helpful. I asked a million questions in the beginning before I got connected with our venue coordinator and Samantha would always reply so quickly. Once we got our venue coordinator we met with him a bunch of times and he truly was on the ball and we knew we were in good hands. The only unexpected part was the call 2 days before the wedding to say our venue coordinator was no longer with the company and I was being assigned a new one. As one can imagine this is a heavy shock for a bride 48 hours before her big day but I put my faith is our newly assigned coordinator (who we met during the rehearsal) and I’m glad to share that she made everything work out perfectly. While I was somewhat nervous at the start, after meeting her I knew we were in good hands. She didn’t let anything slip through the cracks and she enabled us to have a smooth and relaxing evening while she took care of everything behind the scenes.

    A year of planning later, and I can honestly say without a doubt, the lighthouse not only lived up to my high expectations, but blew them out of the water. There are no words. We worked with Bob who was responsive, professional, honest and just down right a wonderful person. We had a few specific requests and Bob didn’t even hesitate for a second before making them happen. When we arrived on our wedding day, bob was there with his team to greet us and make sure we had anything and everything we needed. I had a personal assistant to help me throughout the night who was so sweet. My husband just keeps saying he can’t believe the level of service we received and it’s just so nice that everything came together so perfectly. Oh and of course, the venue looked absolutely stunning. Our guests just keep saying how wonderful the food was (the quantity and more importantly the quality) and how wonderful the staff was. All I can say is that truly, everything was perfect!

    The Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers is a picture perfect venue. Their Event Team let by the amazing Bob McSweeney, is a group of kind and extremely talented professionals, who are very easy to work. They answered any questions we had within a few hours, made sure every detail we asked for was set, and helped us create a perfectly seamless wedding that we could have only dreamed of…I will always think of The Lighthouse for any event that we might hold in the future. We couldn’t have loved the venue more!

    The entire Abigail Kirsch and The Lighthouse staff went above and beyond what we imagined. From the service, coordination, organization, set-up, menu, cuisine, drinks, and everything else, we were impressed by the planning leading up to the wedding day and execution on the wedding day. I will mention, they don't have your typical tasting, but they were willing to accommodate us to taste their food - schedule permitting. You will sit down with one of their seasoned professionals in putting together a menu that works for you. There are so many options that there's something for all couples.
    Tanya, our wedding coordinator, was very helpful and responsive from the day we started coordinating two months before the wedding day. Tanya coordinated everything with our vendors and responded to their needs accordingly.
    On the wedding day, Tanya was a maestro leading the orchestra. She solved all the small and major problems that arose, made our bridal party and family feel so welcomed and comfortable, and she did it all with ease - nothing fazed her.
    The value for what you get at Abigail Kirsch and The Lighthouse is amazing. The venue is beautiful at sunset and night. The food is delicious and there's so much of it! From cocktail hour to the butler-passed desserts, everything was flavorful and well-executed. Our guests keep mentioning that it is the best food they've had in a long time. The service was impeccable and we always had someone attending to us and our guests.
    Overall, we could not have had a better experience. Tanya, Abigail Kirsch, and The Lighthouse made our dream wedding come true.

    My now-husband and I got married at Current at Chelsea Piers after falling in love with Abigail Kirsch catering. We had about 185 guests for a ceremony, cocktails, dinner, and dancing. We could not be more thrilled with how our wedding went.

    Our event manager, Madeline, was so professional, kind, and responsive. She has incredible attention to detail and worked closely with our wedding planner to make sure the night was absolutely perfect. The two of them seamlessly handled all the moving parts, kept the events on schedule, and took care of any problems before we even knew they were happening. We also had a wonderful bridal attendant, Mina, who made sure we were fed and watered during the very hectic night.

    And of course, the Abigail Kirsch catering was excellent. I have an intolerance to gluten, and the staff worked with me to create an entirely gluten-free menu. Our guests absolutely raved about the food, and all said they never would have guessed there was no gluten involved!

    All of the staff working the event were absolutely on top of their game, from the bar staff to the servers, ensuring our guests had the best possible time. We are so happy with how our wedding went thanks to their professionalism.

    We celebrated our daughter and new son-in-law’s wedding on August 19th, at The Lighthouse and were lucky to be able to work with Madeline, our Event Manager. She was the consummate professional and a complete pleasure to work with. Every detail was managed flawlessly. From the moment we were introduced to Madeline, we knew we were in great hands. She was incredibly organized, helpful, and responsive. Madeline listened to our ideas and wishes and made sure that everything ran like clockwork. Having an event manager, who possesses the ability to make the day of your wedding stress-free, is a true talent.
    The Lighthouse was the perfect venue to have a wedding. The entire staff was incredibly attentive and everyone worked so hard to make the celebration perfect. There was no stone left unturned. Every detail was discussed, and executed to perfection. From the food, to the views, to the transformation of each space of the venue, everything was done with the highest level of professionalism.
    It was a night to remember, and we are so happy that we decided to have the wedding at The Lighthouse. Thank you for helping to make the wedding something we, and our guests, will remember forever!

Our guests are still talking about how great the food was, it blew our mind! The day of staff was perfection, always available and helpful. I can honestly say, I was a true guest at my own wedding. Madeline handled EVERYTHING. I could not recommend The Lighthouse more!!!

    The Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers was an absolutely perfect venue for our wedding. The staff was exceptional, especially our wedding coordinator, who was a rock star. She went above and beyond to make the night flow perfectly. The staff working the event were incredibly professional and just great. The food was excellent -- far and away the best food we (and all of our guests) have ever had at a wedding. The space was fantastic, with incredible views. I highly, highly recommend this venue and would love to do something there again.

    My husband and I got married at Current in December 2016. From start to finish the staff was professional, organized and most importantly fun to work with! We were blown away with their attention to detail and their flexibility in making everything just the way we wanted it. Our family and friends could not stop raving about the service, the ambiance and the Abigail Kirsch catering -- which is simply top notch.

    The lighthouse at Chelsea Piers truly made a fantastic wedding for us! They were extremely organized. The second I met with my planner, Bob, I felt truly comfortable that the event would be everything we wanted and would go very smoothly! I wouldn't have changed a thing about the day, they made it perfect!

    We got married at The Lighthouse on July 8th and it was a dream come true! We couldn't have imagined a more perfect venue!! I am still in awe at how wonderful they were to work with! They were so responsible and attentive throughout the entire planning process. Our day of planner, Madeline, was on top of every little detail from beginning to end. She made the day of our wedding completely seamless and stress-free! Everyone just got to relax and enjoy themselves. The venue looked stunning and the food was beyond delicious!! We received glowing reviews from every guest in attendance! The Lighthouse made our day everything we dreamed it would be and more!!

    We got married at the Lighthouse this past weekend, and I can't articulate how perfect and amazing everything was. Since it is an expensive venue, we were going in with already high expectations, and I can honestly say that they exceeded anything I could have ever imagined. The food is to die for, and the service they provide is worth every penny. From the event manager you are given, the servers and staff, and the Bride's personal attendant, we never felt more accommodated than that night. We've had countless guests tell us it was the most beautiful wedding they've ever been to (and that was on a rainy day!) and many people commented on how their glasses were always full, never needing to go to a bar. I worked with Lauren in booking the space and questions along the way, and Rich Martin was my event manager. Both of them were so helpful and professional and went out of their way to make our vision into a reality. My family and I also had some very specific requests for the flow of the evening, from the band, and for the ceremony, and Rich made sure things went off without a hitch. It was more fun and more beautiful than I could have possibly imagined. You absolutely will not regret booking this venue - wish we could do it all over again!!

    We had our September 25th ceremony and reception at The Lighthouse. We absolutely LOVED everything about The Lighthouse: the setting, the food, the service - everything was top notch and we were made to feel like guests at our own wedding. From my groom having a fresh cold beer always available to my lovely attendant tying my belt on my dress without me even noticing, everything was perfect. We had Bob as our event manager and I trusted him 100%. He made us and our families feel completely at ease and relaxed since day one. The Lighthouse and Bob are A+ hosts. Couldn't be more happy with our wedding day thanks to them.

    The most amazing wedding venue ever. We got married here this past weekend and it was unbelievable. The food was amazing. The service was incredible. Everything was perfect. Bob was our event manager and literally killed it. They really know what they are doing there. The compliments from our guests just keep coming. Cannot even find the words to describe how amazing everything was. Wish I could do it all again next weekend!!!!

    We just had our wedding ceremony and reception at the Lighthouse in October and it was spectacular. The venue is completely amazing - you have floor to ceiling windows that overlook the Hudson River and NJ in the background. We had our wedding ceremony during dusk, which made for an amazing sunset backdrop during our ceremony. It was magical in every sense of the word.

    We had an amazing experience coordinating our wedding with Abigail Kirsch/The Lighthouse staff. Our wedding was a bit complicated; as an Indian wedding there were a number of nuances involved, such as the horse procession outside before the ceremony, an elaborate setup for the ceremony, an intermediary send off on a carriage, and a lot of dietary restrictions for our guests. The staff handled every in stride and did a fabulous job. Our event manager, Richard, was fantastic and really assuaged any fears or nervousness that we had for the day. Under Richard's direction, the whole night turned out spectacular and could not have been more perfect. At the end of the night, the dance floor was still packed, so we were able to coordinate with Richard to extend our time at the venue.

    Many of our guests have told us that this was the best wedding they've ever been to. Having the wedding at the Lighthouse was the best decision we ever made.

    After seeing an article about our venue potentially closing (which it has now), we had to scramble a month before our wedding to find an alternative venue which was definitely not an easy task in NYC. Looking back at it all now, it was DEFINITELY a blessing in disguise because we came across Pier Sixty which was hands down the most perfect venue for our fairy tale wedding. I honestly didn't even consider Pier Sixty 14 months or so out before our wedding date, knowing it was completely out of our budget. In a desperate attempt to contact over 50 venues last minute, stumbling across Pier Sixty was just meant to be. It was oddly available all day on our wedding weekend and could accommodate our wedding party size. They were willing to work with our strained budget (due to the old venue) and with all our vendors already booked for the day.

    Jayme and Richard were absolutely wonderful and extremely professional to work with. They totally exceeded our expectations and really turned an extremely stressful month into the most magical day I could've imagined. All of our guests raved about the food, especially the cocktail hour. Although they don't offer tastings as their catering is done by Abigail Kirsch, they were true to their word and the food was excellent! Service was top notch and the venue was absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for giving us our fairy tale wedding!!

    I absolutely love Current and the people who made my dream wedding a reality. First of all, our event manager, David, did everything to make sure things run smoothly and flawlessly. Kudos! We really gave our heart felt gratitude to David and my attendant. I can only imagine what they did to make sure the wedding was perfect. All of ours guests were raving about the food and the service. In fact, my boss told me that he wanted his son to get married at the Current.

    The Lighthouse was the perfect venue for our daughter's wedding. We had the advantage of being inside as well as outside, surrounded by the stunning water view and fresh air on a beautiful, sunny Sunday afternoon.
    Our banquet manager and the staff were very helpful in planning and executing a beautiful flow of the afternoon's events: ceremony, reception, etc. Our guests didn't want to leave and are still raving about the special feeling of our special day.

    What a space for a wedding! From beginning to end, the people at the Lighthouse knew what they were doing. The food was great, the organization was smooth, and the service was seamless. Paul, our event manager, was on top of everything, from the planning to being the emcee in his tux. We know this is a high-end venue, but we feel we got more than we paid for. Great food, great space, great people, great operation all around.

    The Lighthouse is an utterly spectacular venue. The view alone is worth it, but then you add in the exceptional service and delicious food, it makes it a simply magical experience.

    We were married at The Lighthouse in April, and as soon as we walked in we knew it was the venue for us. The place is absolutely gorgeous - with hardwood floors and floor to ceiling windows looking out at the water. The staff was always incredibly helpful and kind. They went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect leading up to and on the day of our wedding. Bob managed every aspect of our day, and he did not skip a beat.

    I couldn't imagine having our wedding anywhere else. The ambiance and the food were extremely important to us, and they were perfect on both counts. I can't even begin to describe how breathtaking the view is. I would highly recommend The Lighthouse to anyone.

    The Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers did a wonderful job at my daughters wedding. The service and food were amazing. The wedding was really spectacular.

    Bob is the best! He made sure that our wedding reception was flawless, and it really was perfect. We ran into a small issue, our groom's cake got lost because it was delivered to a different location. Bob made a few calls and found it and the cake was ready to be displayed on time. Bob and Pier Sixty are also very accommodating. We had a very large paper flower installation which Bob stored for a couple of days locked away at the venue and oversaw its setup on the day of. The venue was flexible with our menu choices, as we brought in some of our own traditional foods which the chef displayed and arranged for the cocktail hour. All the guests we spoke to said our wedding was the best wedding they've ever been to and a big part of it was Bob and this beautiful venue. Every single aspect of our wedding at Pier Sixty was perfect

    My husband and I had our wedding at Pier Sixty on 10/04/14. We could not be happier with this venue--it was the most magical night and everything was flawless! Our dedicated event planner, Rich, was an absolutely delight to work with. No detail went unnoticed and their staff cannot be compared to anything I've ever experienced! They were so attentive and did everything they could to make sure we had the day of our dreams! Each and every one of our guests raved about the food, atmosphere and view. I would recommend Pier Sixty to every single bride considering it!

    This Abigail Kirsch venue provided a magical laminated space in NYC that made the party feel like we were on a cruise ship. Greg and Bob were a pleasure to work with. Bob helped put together the most delicious menu and orchestrated the perfect event. He never left our side the entire evening. The service was exceptional and so appreciate and thank them for the most memorable and beautiful wedding evening.

    We recently had our daughter's wedding reception at The Lighthouse. It was perfect! We couldn't be more pleased. Paul got us through without a hitch - he was amazing. Our guests continue to rave not only about the beautiful location, but the food, service and flawless evening. Many have called to say "it was the best wedding they had ever been to!" We were able to enjoy ourselves as each and every detail was taken care of by the friendly, courteous and professional staff. Thank you all for a perfect event.

    I could NOT be more thrilled with this venue! Everyone loved it and David, our event manager, was amazing! I felt completely taken care of, listened to, and comforted. They really know what they are doing from the flow of the day to the food. Every last detail was taken care of. My bridal attendant was fantastic and I was never without a drink or food in my hand.Overall it was an amazing experience!

    My event planner was Paul and he was always available to me, diligent, flexible and prompt. My whole wedding went very smoothly because he was so on top of things. He used my DIY pieces beautifully and set it all up on his own. He was very kind and helpful to all my guests and we received rave reviews about our party. He, as well as all the helpful staff, truly added to the joyful spirit of our wedding day.

    We were married on the 8th of February and had our reception at the Lighthouse. I must say: the event was truly fairytale-like. We initially worked with Ashley for dates and contracts and the like; she was a total pleasure. We were then assigned Bob as our event coordinator; he was so personable, professional, and made sure that the event went off smoothly. What the space itself will look like is totally up to you. We worked with one of their preferred floral designers, Botanical Design, and Brian and Vince brought my vision to life. We opted for the pin lights above each table to showcase our incredible arrangements and had tea lights hung from the ceilings throughout the venue; the whole effect was magical. The food was delicious- EVERYONE has raved about it since the wedding. (We thought the raw bar was a "must" and our guests agreed!) Honestly, the team as a whole went above and beyond; we were assigned Gabrielle to help us with small details throughout the day, and she assisted us with everything from the bustle on my dress to making sure we had a stocked bridal suite- and she did it all with a sweet smile. The only thing I'd change about the whole experience and the whole night would be being able to do it all over again!

    Felt like a guest at our own wedding! Absolutely outstanding service. I love that they encouraged us to take 2 minutes to be alone together, appreciate the moment. Our wedding day went by so quickly and that time together was so important. It also gave us a chance to eat the delicious food! We had some special touches we wanted to include and the team at The Lighthouse incorporated them into the flow of the evening seamlessly. It was just beyond our expectations! One of our guests said he's going to encourage his daughter to have her reception there!
    Abigail Kirsch manages the catering for this venue. Our guests LOVED the food, including the wedding cake. Everything was managed impeccably. We couldn't have asked for more.

    We recently had our August 2013 wedding at Pier 60. We had a very large wedding of nearly 600 guests. Pier 60 and its staff were simply amazing. If you going to have a large party or wedding with a clean, modern feel, this is definitely a place to consider.
    We worked with Greg while signing the contract and up until the two months before the wedding. He was responsive, professional, and eager to help.
    In the last two months before the wedding, we worked with Bob as our dedicated event coordinator. Bob was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and efficient. He was also always aware of our budget constraints. He also played an active role in coordinating details with our florist, including table cloths, floor plan setup, etc.
    Given the size of the wedding, we were nervous about how hectic everything would get on the big day. On the day of the wedding, however, Bob made sure that my wife and I felt like guests at the wedding. I barely had to make a single decision. The transition from ceremony, to cocktail hour, and to dinner was seamless. Our guests all complimented us on how smoothly everything went.
    THE SPACE:
    For some time, my wife and I had some hesitation about choosing Pier 60. At first glance, the venue appears to be very plain and business-like. But after working with our florist, and without going outside our budget, we were able to turn the venue into something modern, classy, and wedding-like. Although pricey, I highly recommend using the pinspots on all the tables.
    THE FOOD:
    We were disappointed to find out that Abigail Kirsch does not offer food tastings. We chose our menu by looking at photos and with our event coordinator’s help. While this may dissuade some couples from this venue, we recommend that you trust the venue’s chef. The cocktail stations and hors' d'oeuvres were delicious. The main course (filet mignon and fish) was also very good. Even with 600 guests, the steak was served warm and cooked to perfection.

    We had a friday night winter wedding and were looking for a location that had a gorgeous view and a unique NYC vibe. We did our reception at The Lighthouse in February and couldn't be happier!

    Both Greg (sales) and Bob (our in house planner) made the selection and planning process stress free, and went out of their way to simplify our lives in those last days when the planning process turned into a whirlwind.

    The location is gorgeous, our guests have said many times that this is the most beautiful wedding they have ever attended, and the food was delicious. Even our cake, which came with the venue, was both yummy and beautiful.

    I would definitely recommend the lighthouse, it is totally worth the spend. I wish I had an excuse to have an event here again.

    There aren't enough amazing things to say about The Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers. From the service to the food to the ambiance, you can NOT go wrong booking this venue for your wedding day. We looked at several venues in the city and found flaws with each (from awkward layouts to TERRIBLE service). My husband and I were sold once we met Greg and did a walk through of the space. Greg was extremely attentive and made our decision to book the Lighthouse a no brainer. Greg always responded quickly via email or phone even after we set the date. We were then placed in the hands of Bob, our event manager. My family still talks about how incredible Bob is. He was a pleasure to work with! He always responded very promptly to all of my questions and concerns, which is comforting when you are getting closer to the big day and have so much on your plate. He guided us through selecting our menu and helped us with any food requests we had (from Kosher to special meals needed due to allergies). The day of we felt even more blessed to have him. He helped to accommodate us when we arrived late to our cocktail hour. We noticed that the lighting wasn't placed in a hallway like we requested and fixed it immediately. He made sure that we always had our drinks refilled and something to eat. Bob was the reason our wedding day was picture perfect. Just a quick note, our guests all said that this was the best wedding food they've ever tasted and were amazed by the views. I would HIGHLY recommend to all of my friends and family. BEST decision we've ever made!

    I would give this venue 10 stars if I was able to! I can't say enough praise! I originally had a concern as to how all three events were to take place in the same room (ceremony, cocktail hour & reception). No matter how many times me event planner, Paul, explained it, I still couldn't quite grasp it. I was worried my guests were going to be bumped into while the staff changed everything over, but no one even NOTICED the staff moving anything around! They were quick, quite and very effective. The layout was fantastic, and Paul made everything very simple. I trusted him to do his job and he did it wonderfully!

    I am so thankful and thrilled that we had our reception at the Lighthouse. I honestly love that place and I hope people getting married at least consider it. Initially I thought it would be way beyond our budget, but, since just about everything is included and they don't nickel and dime you if you have a small request here and there, it actually was a good value for the amazing quality they provide. Of course, if you have the means, the sky is the limit with what they can offer, but their basic options are in fact luxurious. Our event manager was Bob McSweeney, and he spend HOURS talking with us about every detail. He is kind, knowledgeable, down-to-earth, and very understanding of family dynamics and anxious brides!!! The food and the setting are beautiful, and the service was seamless. All the guests were thrilled with the appearance and quality of the food--not to mention the amount. My only regret is that the party had to come to an end! It was a magical experience.

    I got married on a Saturday night at the Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers. The service there was amazing and they took care of everything. Our event manager Bob was our angel without him we would have been clueless but he kept everything running smoothly and made sure we even ate. The food was delicious and everyone keeps raving to me about the venue!

    Initally, we were not sure whether to choose The Lighthouse (primarily because Abigail Kirsch venues do not do tastings) but we are very glad we did. The venue is such a professionally run operation. From our planning meetings to the day of the wedding, they think of and attend to every detail so you can really enjoy your day. Also, the food was amazing (even our finicky guests were impressed). I would recommend The Lighthouse to anyone planning a wedding.

    I would choose the Lighthouse and Rich Martin all over again if I could. Rich and his team helped our wedding run without a hitch.

    We had an afternoon reception and the weather and the view of the Hudson could not have been more perfect. The bridal party arrived late following the ceremony, and Rich extended cocktail hour and made sure to put aside plenty of goodies for us to eat. Abigail Kirsch is known for her food, and our guests were definitely very happy with the endless cocktail hour and extra desserts. My only food related complaint was that the branzino entree was pretty lacking.

    From the day we signed our contract to settling accounts afterwards, the Lighthouse has been a pleasure to work with. Rich did an amazing job coordinating all the vendors, family, bridal party, etc. He made sure to pack up everything we brought and even found my baby niece's missing shoe. We had an amazing time at our wedding and only wish it could have been longer.

    Pros: Rich Martin, professional, beautiful views, good value, delicious food
    Cons: no tastings allowed, parking is extra

    My husband and i just had my wedding at The lighthouse, Pier 61. All the guests loved the venue, delicious & abundant food, and said the wedding flowed very well, thanks to our wedding coordinator, Richard Martin. He was provided to us a month before our wedding. He was very professional, detailed-oriented, responsive, sweet & knew what he was doing. He also worked well w/ our vendors & really delivered on our wedding day. Richard was so good, he was on schedule, almost to the tee, according to the schedule that we created. My husband & i got to eat & enjoy ourselves. i got a bridal assistant, so she tended to my needs. All the guests said they had a great time. We both love the way our wedding turned out. I highly recommend them.

    We had a wonderful experience with the Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers. Having your wedding there is not cheap, but it was honestly worth every penny. All of our friends and family said it was the best wedding -- or indeed, any event -- they had ever been to (and I think they were being serious).

    The venue is beautiful -- on the Hudson River, with a view to the Jersey skyline (which is prettier than I might have thought) and even down to the Statue of Liberty. The big draw for us was that the space is indoors but there are large garage type doors that can open up for an outdoor feel. It was too windy and rainy on my wedding day for them to open the doors, but to be honest the venue was so gorgeous that I did not even mind (people can still get out onto the deck via regular doors). The space itself has an unfinished/industrial yet elegant look that we really liked.

    The food is great. There are no tastings, but there are so many choices that had us drooling just reading the descriptions. They show you pictures of all the food so you can see exactly what it will look like before making up your mind. The sheer amount of food bordered on ridiculous (in a good way). The beef entree was the best beef I have had in years. Just some of the many many delicious things we ate were: lobster and corn salad with a corn souffle, bbq chicken macaroni bites, mojito granita intermezzos, chocolate covered bacon...I need to stop now because I am getting too hungry.

    The best part though was our banquet manager, Bob. He was fantastic. He kept the night running smoothly. He also made sure that my husband and I had time to eat and were well looked after (someone else mentioned the private plate of cocktail munchies for the bride and groom and this is indeed awesome). It basically felt like we didn't have to worry about anything, as if we had hired a wedding planner (which we hadn't).

    They do have a relatively small list of required florists, but I think actually that is a smart move because they then ensure that people are working there who are very familiar with the space. Also, it makes your planning easier. Aside from that they were very flexible and bent over backwards to meet our every request.

    You won't regret going with them! They do a great job.

    A terrific venue for a wedding!

    Due to mobility issues for several family members, we needed an "all-in-one" venue for our daughter's wedding that could stage the ceremony (with a large chuppah), reception and dinner/dancing. Imagine our delight when we came across The Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers! They did a magnificent job working collaboratively with us in the lead up to the wedding, and the execution of the wedding itself was perfection. Every guest commented on the delicious cuisine (a rarity at weddings) and the impeccable service. Brian Wellman, our event manager, was lovely to work with and so patient with the anxious bridal family.

    They are the place to go if you want to be taken care of on the day of your wedding and not worry about the small details; they have a wedding organizer who takes care of everything on the day of and even makes sure that a plate of appetizers is ready for the bride and groom write after the ceremony. I actually ate at my own wedding! And hands down, most of the guests said it was the best food they'd ever eaten at a wedding.

    We had originally booked our reception at another venue, but when they were unable to reopen after Sandy, we were scrambling to find another option. We were so relieved to find that Pier Sixty still had availability on our date. It was like falling up--our reception was even better than we could have imagined!

    Pier Sixty's location on the Hudson River wowed our guests! The food from Abigail Kirsch was delicious and beautifully presented (we only wish we could have done a tasting). Above all, the service was fantastic. Our banquet manager Paul answered all our questions during planning and took great care of us on the big day. We could enjoy ourselves and spend time with our guests during the reception, confident that we were in good hands and the event would run smoothly. I don't know if I'll ever be planning an event for 200 guests again, but if I do, Pier Sixty would be on the top of my list!

    We had an absolutely gorgeous wedding at The Lighthouse. All of the food and service is exactly what we had hoped it would be --- amazing! The quality of the food and presentation is absolutely amazing, Abigail Kirsch is awesome!

    We had some different requests for decor that we worked with our florist (Superior) to execute, and they did an amazing job. The Lighthouse also accommodated a couple of our different requests, which we were so happy about since we weren't sure about how flexible they could be at first!

    People still tell us how amazing our wedding was, and it is definitely due to the quality of everything at The Lighthouse.

    Breathtaking views and incredible food

    I can't not begin to describe how gorgeous and contemporary this venue was. My husband and I really wanted to have our wedding in a New York landmark and Chelsea piers is one of the most recognizable landmarks in new york. Besides the stunning views of the Hudson, my guests still can not stop talking about the food catered by Abigails Kirsch. I would have my wedding here over and over again!

    My wedding was my second event at The lighthouse. My birthday party being the first. Everything was wonderful from beginning to end. The guests are still raving about the food. I had my cake done by an outside vendor. My family is from the South and are very picky about red velvet . My event planer was perfect, professional , knowledgeable and flexible. He worked well with my wedding planner and my mother. My only complaint is that the day went too fast. I'll definitely will hold future events at this venue.

    The Lighthouse

    The venue itself is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views, phenomenal food, and an exceptionally well-organized staff. The sales and planning teams were fantastic to work with, going above and beyond to cover every detail.

    However, there were some significant shortcomings with the bridal attendant and family attendant. Both were frequently missing throughout the night, leaving me unsure of their whereabouts. Despite informing my bridal attendant about my fainting disorder and the need for her to stay nearby, she was often nowhere to be found. This was incredibly disappointing and surprising, given the venue's professionalism in every other aspect.

    Overall, I absolutely loved the venue and would still recommend it. Just be sure to communicate your expectations clearly regarding bridal and family attendants to avoid similar issues

    Wonderful venue in many ways. We are foodies and catering by Abigail Kirsch went above and beyond our expectations. The food was shockingly good for a wedding and they were even able to arrange for a gluten free tier of cake.

    We LOVED our in house event planner, Jeffrey Stillwell. He was on top of things, accessible, wonderful in every way. He is the reason why our big day went so smoothly. He really did a wonderful job of taking care of us so we didn't have to worry about a thing on our wedding night.

    The reason why the venue does not get full five star marks is because (1) it is, despite everything, a bit of a wedding factory, with pros and cons (very experienced, but slightly impersonal) and (2) the sales rep we met with initially, Greg, was pretty unresponsive and even rude at times. It may have been an isolated case (given that I see some positive mentions of him by name in other reviews), but we just didn't have a good experience with him at all. Still, it didn't in the end affect our experience at the wedding.

    Overall, though.... Thank you, Jeffrey, for making our day wonderful. I hope you get your day, too.

    The Lighthouse is an AMAZING venue, and we are so happy we had our wedding there! It is gorgeous, and they plus Abigail Kirsch really know how to run the show. Unfortunately, we ran into some trouble with our banquet manager. He was impossible to reach and quite unprofessional. It's too bad, because we really loved everyone else we met there. He pulled through on the day of the wedding, though. We still definitely recommend the Lighthouse, because the majority of the people are great. The food by Abagail Kirsch is sooo good, and the service is impeccable. They really think of all the little details here and allow you to enjoy your day.

    Beautiful venue that employees thieves.

    All of the brides and her familys belongings were stolen from this venue. Buyer Beware. They do not care. It is a risk to have your wedding here.
