About

On WeddingWire since 2013

The Skylark is a rooftop wedding venue located in New York City. This one-of-a-kind wedding destination offers sweeping views of Midtown Manhattan and showcases iconic landmarks such as The Empire State Building and Times Square. Perched high above the Hudson River, this cocktail lounge exudes style and sophistication for events held throughout the year. The venue’s experienced staff provide attentive service throughout the happy couple’s planning experience and wedding day.

The Skylark features both indoor and outdoor event spaces, and couples can utilize multiple areas for their event. The Main Lounge is the largest function room and boasts floor-to-ceiling windows that highlight the city views. This space is ideal for summer as well as winter weddings as it provides the outdoor vibe while being enclosed. During the warmer months, the Roof Deck is available as an outdoor space for al fresco cocktail hour. The Living and Pool Rooms can accommodate wedding parties as they get ready for their big day.

This venue is suitable for weddings of 80 guests for seated dining or up to 150 with a cocktail-inspired reception. When you book your celebration here, you will have access to a suite where you and your wedding party can get ready for the festivities. The event spaces are equipped with amenities such as a high-quality sound system for your entertainment. You can also customize your own dining experience as catering services are provided by Abigail Kirsch.

The perfect NYC wedding venue

The staff at the Skylark, along with the incredible views, made our wedding night more amazing than we could have imagined. Peter, the on-site coordinator, was amazing and made sure all of our concerns were addressed before and during the wedding. The bartenders worked quickly to limit any delays at the bar and were very friendly and respectful to all of our guests. The servers, bridal assistant, and hostess were also very professional and helped the entire evening exceed our expectations!

Even Better Than A Dream

From the moment we set foot in The Skylark, we knew we had found the perfect place for our special day. We wanted to focus on having a big party to celebrate our love. Our experience at this remarkable venue surpassed all expectations and created memories that will last a lifetime.

The staff at The Skylark were nothing short of exceptional. From the very first inquiry to the final farewell, they demonstrated an unparalleled level of professionalism, warmth, and attentiveness that made us feel like royalty. Their expertise and experience were evident as they seamlessly guided us through the entire planning process, taking into account every detail and ensuring that our vision became a reality. Laura was a godsend and extremely responsive. Peter, our day of coordinator, was simply exceptional. He had everything organized and I did not even worry about a thing (as it should be!).

We are still getting rave reviews about the entire venue and especially the amazing food and drinks. We chose a cocktail reception and while initially we were worried it would be confusing or awkward for our guests who are used to super-traditional receptions; it was not! It was perfect, everyone loved it and there was a TON of food. I had to turn food away!

I cannot say enough about how amazing everything was. If you are searching for a place that will leave you and your guests in awe, and memories that will be cherished forever, look no further than The Skylark. Trust us, your special day will be nothing short of magical.

Your stomach will drop

I only toured this venue as a potential spot for my 2022 wedding because that was all I could handle. I am giving this venue five stars because they were very responsive and professional. It really is an awesome venue, but once you step out on the rooftop, your heart could plummet into your stomach. The views are absolutely incredible, but the only thing stopping you from falling down thirty/thirty-two floors to the ground is one thickness of glass secured to posts. When I went out on the rooftop I clung to the side of the building for the whole tour. I loved the venue, but I realized I couldn't warm up to the idea of putting my guests on the edge of the building. I'm sure it passes code, but to my understanding, I would not put myself or my guests through that feeling. Again, this is an awesome venue, probably one of the coolest I could have asked for myself. The team is very responsive and professional, and when I toured the venue I met a couple who had their wedding the night before. They only had rave reviews of the venue. It is truly my loss that I won't choose this venue in the end. It's not for everybody.
