Help with Wedding Venue Recs for Spring 2026
Hello! I’m a 2026 bride (hoping for a spring wedding but open to other seasons) looking for a venue in the NYC area—ideally in the city, but I’m also looking into the Hudson Valley, Westchester, and the Catskills.
My dream venue would be Events at Chelsea Square, but unfortunately, it’s out of our price range given our guest count (150–200 people, but likely closer to 200). I love that it has a moody, historic interior, but then also has a bright, beautiful outdoor garden. I also love the interior of The Bowery Hotel, but it's too expensive for us as well.
Ideally, I’m looking for:
- A place that’s historic or moody feeling, with an outdoor space that feels like a rustic English garden or has Tuscany winery vibes
- Good food—we want our guests to love their meal and not leave hungry
Budget: Our ideal total wedding budget (including dress, flowers, etc.) is $75k, but we could potentially stretch up to $100k.
If anyone has recommendations for venues with a similar vibe, I’d love to hear them! Thank you so much! 😊
