We had our reception at the Pink Moon and it was incredible!! Rebecca was so helpful and responsive throughout the planning process and she and her team were so great day of. The space is really beautiful and just what we wanted for an intimate and lively party. It is so beautifully decorated, especially the floral mural, that it didn't really need much extra decoration from us. The sound system was great and easy to use too. The bridal party loved the suite upstairs to get ready and have a quiet moment in all the wonderful craziness. Really can't recommend the Pink Moon enough!!

After our Upper East Side ceremony, our wedding guests took the ferry to Dumbo and enjoyed the cocktail hour at Bridgepoint Rooftop. And while they loved the Dumbo Loft for our reception, I think the rooftop view was the hit of the day. This space is all marble inside and truly beautiful. Between that and the city views, we did basically zero decor for this space. There are some nice bistro lights already set up on the rooftop patio. There was plenty of space for our caterers to set up several food tables and our bartenders to set up a bar table. We brought in some hightop tables for both the indoor and outdoor spaces. There was potential for rain so we did have to book a tent at the last minute (unexpected, awful expense), but we ended up not needing it! Just be aware there is no awning or anything in the event of rain and we knew we'd have too many people for just the indoor space. The BK Venues folks were absolutely fantastic and communicative. They gave us a deal for booking both the Rooftop and Dumbo Loft! Bridgepoint Rooftop was amazing, and really added such a fun and special variety to the events of the day. Thanks BK Venues!!!

The Dumbo Loft was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the beginning, their communication was good, fast, professional, and reliable. The venue itself is beautiful on its own, with a versatile layout and a small but functional dressing room. We were able to decorate the space exactly how we wanted and choose the vendors that fit our vision. The venue was super easy to work with, and the pricing was great compared to other spaces we looked at. The location was also super easy for our guests to get to, and while the space was a bit small, it was just enough room for all we needed. Overall, we couldn't have been happier with our experience at The Dumbo Loft and highly recommend it to any couples looking for a gorgeous, flexible wedding venue.

Smack Mellon is, to put it mildly, a wonderful venue. The brick interior and high ceilings (I believe it was an old boiler room dating from DUMBO's bygone industrial days well before West Elm) provides ample room for whatever you desire. We worked closely with Jessica, who was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. She remained quite receptive to each of our many suggestions. Everyone at Smack Mellon was very accommodating, too, letting us drop off some items the day prior (this was an invaluable service amid standard pre-wedding chaos). Since the space is relatively blank, you can add to it, creating a wholly personal experience that properly reflects you and your event. And of course, there's the view of the Manhattan Bridge. If you're visiting the space, take the ferry. Easier than finding parking and nicer than the subway.

About wedding venues in Brooklyn, NY

Why Is Brooklyn the Perfect Wedding Destination?

Brooklyn gives couples those authentic industrial-chic spaces you just can't find elsewhere, with preserved timber beams and brick walls that tell the story of the borough's manufacturing past. You'll fall in love with waterfront venues like Liberty Warehouse where you can exchange vows with unobstructed views of Lady Liberty and the harbor. If you're dreaming of skyline views, Brooklyn's rooftop venues deliver 360-degree Manhattan panoramas that will leave your guests speechless. Each neighborhood brings its own character; from historic Brooklyn Heights to artistic Williamsburg; creating wedding backdrops impossible to duplicate in Manhattan. Plus your dollar stretches further here, typically giving you more space than you'd get across the East River.

What Are the Different Types of Wedding Venues in Brooklyn?

Brooklyn's venue options showcase its rich architectural heritage in ways that will make your celebration truly unique. Industrial spaces like The Green Building let you celebrate among original timber beams and factory windows for that perfect blend of history and style. If water views matter to you, Liberty Warehouse features floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the harbor and Statue of Liberty as your wedding backdrop. Looking for something elevated? The William Vale's 20th-floor space offers fully-accessible luxury with views that will take your breath away. Nature lovers can surround themselves with seasonal blooms at Brooklyn Botanic Garden's Palm House glasshouse while history buffs will appreciate Weylin's restored 1875 Gilded Age details in the former Williamsburgh Savings Bank.

How Much Does a Brooklyn Wedding Cost?

Brooklyn weddings typically run significantly higher than the national average of $6,500-$12,000. Your guest count will dramatically impact what you'll spend on your big day:

Guest CountEstimated Total Cost
50 guests$40,319
100 guests$68,404
150 guests$94,787
200 guests$118,336
250 guests$141,884
300 guests$165,433

Just for the venue alone you're looking at an average of $20,886 in Brooklyn which represents about 22% of your total wedding budget if you're hosting 150 guests. This gives you a realistic starting point when planning your Brooklyn wedding finances.

Which Brooklyn Neighborhoods Have the Best Wedding Venues?

Williamsburg offers you converted industrial spaces like MyMoon Restaurant where you can celebrate in a transformed 19th-century boiler room featuring sophisticated dining spaces with reclaimed wooden details that photographers love. DUMBO gives you those iconic cobblestone streets leading to venues with Manhattan Bridge backdrops perfect for unforgettable wedding photos. If you're planning a smaller gathering Greenpoint's Threes at Franklin and Kent provides an accessible option with intimate charm. Brooklyn Heights surrounds you with elegant venues in historic settings while Red Hook's Liberty Warehouse preserves authentic port architecture with full accessibility and those waterfront views you've been dreaming about.

What Should I Consider When Choosing a Brooklyn Wedding Venue?

When selecting your Brooklyn venue always verify the capacity limits match your guest count; this is particularly important at industrial venues with strict fire codes that won't budge no matter how much you want to squeeze in a few extra cousins. Planning to marry in September? You're not alone as it ranks as Brooklyn's most popular wedding month requiring 13-month advance bookings (417 days) for peak dates. Transportation planning becomes crucial since many Brooklyn venues have limited parking options for your guests. While many venues permit outside catering they may impose fees if you want to bring in your own alcohol so factor those potential costs into your budget.

Which Brooklyn Venues Offer Special Features?

The William Vale in Williamsburg gives you fully-accessible modern event spaces with sweeping views and personalized menus tailored to your taste. Food lovers can enjoy Michelin-starred cuisine at The River Café through four-course tasting menus served in a glass-enclosed pavilion surrounded by water views. If tech matters to your celebration 74Wythe features advanced audiovisual capabilities that support creative remote guest participation beyond basic streaming; perfect for including loved ones who can't attend in person. At Wythe Hotel you'll enjoy French-inspired cuisine from their in-house restaurant Le Crocodile bringing elevated dining to your wedding day.

When Should I Book My Brooklyn Wedding Venue?

You'll typically need to book your Brooklyn venue about 13 months before your wedding date to secure your first choice. September generates the most inquiries with prime dates often secured well over a year in advance. If you're flexible with your date winter weddings between January and March might reward you with lower venue rates and greater date availability with shorter booking windows. This seasonal flexibility could save you thousands while still giving you the Brooklyn wedding of your dreams. Just remember that popular venues book quickly regardless of season so start your venue search as early as possible.
