The Prospect Park Boathouse was our absolute dream venue and the perfect setting for our big day! We had been torn between having a wedding more in nature or more in the city, and the Boathouse was the perfect blend between the two. Although the food wasn't our top priority, it ended up being a highlight of the day (especially the bacon wrapped dates). Throughout planning, Elena was very communicative and quick to respond to any email or question we had. Many of our guests commented on how elegant and classic New York the Boathouse was as a venue, and that's exactly what made us fall in love with it in the first place. We're also very excited that they recently opened a cafe out of the Boathouse during the day as well so that we can go back and relive our special day over and over again. A big thank you to Elena and the rest of the Purslane team for making our special day absolutely perfect!

We worked with Tucker and she made sure the evens was everything we could have dreamed of. The staff is amazing and makes you feel at home, and the food is UNREAL. Seriously, if not for your wedding, just go for dinner, it is out of this world!

We got married at the Picnic House in April 2024 and had a great experience! It's a beautiful space that you can do a lot with. We really appreciated both having both the flexibility of choosing amongst a variety of vendors, as well as the assurance that given their experience with the venue that they'd be easy to work with day of (which was true- we had a very smooth wedding day!). We really appreciated working with Caity, who was very responsive over email and quick to pick up the phone. Our only struggle was in acquiring our parking passes (that was really the mail's fault) and in getting some answers early on regarding external alcohol policies. And I would say be very careful in selecting your caterer, since they'll make or break your experience. But overall I would absolutely recommend the Picnic House to anyone! The price really can't be beat for what you're getting.

I cannot recommend the Amber Room enough. Everyone there is truly amazing and the food was delicious! From the planning process all the way through to the day of the wedding, we were supported and felt like a priority. Katie was amazing and so helpful through the planning process and significantly reduced our stress! All of our requests were accommodated and executed to perfection. Our banquet manager, Ashley, who ran the rehearsal and made sure the wedding day went smoothly, was also amazing. Ashley has a wonderful personality and made sure everything was perfect for us. All of the staff on the day of the wedding were friendly, helpful, and professional. I am truly sad that I won’t be communicating with the Amber room staff on a regular basis anymore as over the last 10 months of wedding planning, they have felt more like family. I know for a fact that without the staff, our day would not have nearly been as perfect as it was!

We love the city, but really need more time in nature. We assume most New Yorkers would agree. We created this space to allow our community a quiet space among plants, birds, insects, and urban wildlife. Carroll Hall is a warehouse space, garden, lounge, a skylit indoor room, catering kitchen, and discreet wooden “treehouse.” Discovery, wonder, and the unexpected are big themes. Whether an eccentric insect or vignette through a wall opening, we revel in curiosity. Ultimately, the garden is the heart of Carroll Hall; the promise of a quiet moment outside is our grounding force. See the COVID precautions we are taking in the rooms section.
