Ainslie is a stunning Italian restaurant venue in Brooklyn, NY, that hosts unforgettable weddings and other special events. Found in the heart of the vibrant city, it is a stone's throw away from exceptional overnight accommodations. It is also easily accessible to the International Airports for loved ones coming from abroad. The building itself dates back to the 1870s, when it was inhabited by warehouse and factory operations. It has since been transformed into an electric yet rustic setting to host your celebrations.
With 10,000 square feet of event space and a multi-level dining experience that hosts up to 150 guests. This converted warehouse setting exudes history and charm, complete with industrial style elements like a retractable roof with glass panelling for plenty of natural lighting if it is kept closed. On the first floor is an enchanting beer garden and bar with chic decor and modern amenities to set the stage for an unforgettable event. The second floor is home to the living room, which welcomes the right amount of comfort and exclusivity. With a full bar, plush seating, and romantic chandelier lighting, it is perfect for events of up to 65 seated. During the evening, you and your partner can step out onto the rooftop with breathtaking views of the city skyline for a quiet moment together. Or host an intimate open-air celebration in this iconic setting, with space for up to 60 seated guests can enjoy a drink of their choice under the stars.
Their dedicated team will be there every step of the way to ensure your wedding is everything you have ever dreamed of. As an authentic Italian restaurant, you can enjoy delicious wood-fired pizzas and mouth-watering cuisine, with customizable menu options to suit your style and tastes. Chef John DeLucie and Erasmo 'Mino' Lassandro, the powerhouses of the culinary team, will work with you to craft a delightful dining experience. Reach out to Ainslie today to get started.
