Bryant Park Grill

ce was quick and supportive. Thank you for making the occasion of our children's wedding the most beautiful and enjoyable event! Kathryn Bregman

que to us. Tom and his team were all stars on the night of and took care of every detail to execute a flawless event. Many of our guests have commented on the fantastic venue, the delicious food ("best wedding food I've ever had") and the service ("top-notch"). We couldn't be happier and can't wait to visit for anniversaries!

up early). She asked us to trust her and her team, and we're so glad we did. The event — from start to finish — was flawless. Our guests have bombarded us with messages about how much fun they had on Saturday, and how impressed they were with our wedding in general. We've gotten the most feedback on the food ("the best wedding food I've ever had") and the service ("top-notch"). Everyone also loved how classy and elegant the space felt. Too bad we can't get married every year! But we want to come back for our anniversary. Last but certainly not least, the event manager/day-of coordinator Tom is truly a secret (hopefully not so secret) weapon. He was such a help and made sure everything ran so incredibly smoothly on Saturday. He also has such a great energy that makes him someone you certainly want to handle complex, high stress events! We’ll always have a special place in our hearts for Bryant Park Grill!

of house was INCREDIBLE!

wedding was. The food was some of the best we have ever had at a wedding and our guests agreed. I cannot recommend this venue enough. Thank you Tom, Linda, and the entire staff at BPG!

ocktail hour and reception. We cannot recommend Bryant Park grill enough!! Thank you, Alex and Tom!

service was and delicious the food was. Would recommend this venue to anyone looking to have a classic wedding in the heart of Manhattan!

had the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding. The location and the backdrop of Bryant Park and the NYC skyline are also perfect. Highly, highly recommend.

quality and quantity of food for cocktail hour and sit down dinner. From our first trip to Bryant Park through the wedding day, the staff at the restaurant could not be more accommodating and offered suggestions as to how to enhance our vision. They worked closely and collaborated with our "day of" coordinator and our florist to create a gorgeous atmosphere. Bryant Park Grill offers a truly unique experience for guests as you feel as though you are in a beautiful park setting, but with the backdrop of the NYC skyline. I would give the highest recommendation possible- (particularly to Dominick!)!

asy to work with and made wedding planning a pleasure.

the day of, they made everything easier! We got such great feedback from our guests about how great the food was and such a unique venue! They made our wedding day beyond perfect and a day that us and our guests will never forget!

every detail. She is not only so professional but also very sweet and considerate making sure we are happy with each selection. We had the best time and so did our guests! Thank you Kristi and Tom for making our wedding party so special and the best ever!!

was still skeptical because I didn't know how involved I should be speaking with the venue, I was mostly just dealing with other vendors and probably hassled Arthur about meeting too many times :) but everything flowed perfectly and I didn't even have to think about a thing except enjoying my wedding day. We did not have our ceremony at BPG, we had cocktail hour on the roof, dinner in the tented garden, dancing and dessert inside. It's definitely a unique venue set-up to continue to move spaces and I was nervous about it, especially having the older crowd go from place to place. But I kept thinking I hate when I am interrupted during dinner to dance between appetizers and dinner, and that's why I enjoyed the Parisian set up! I had guests tell me "This is how you should have a wedding, I'm going to start telling people this is the way to do it." The food was constantly flowing at cocktail hour and the service was so good and attentive that my mom's best friend said she thought the waiter was even going to wipe her mouth after each bite! One of our hors d'oeuvres was the petite lobster roll, how good could a catering venue lobster roll be, I thought? Well, that too was delicious, the food was impeccable, even the chicken satay which is always "eh" at weddings was juicy and tasty! I asked Arthur to work with me because I wanted to choose burrata as the seated appetizer but I didn't want that to be displayed with the cheese station on the roof to over-cheese our guests, he had no problem removing it and adding something else. Overall, just to have a rooftop element and outdoor garden area in the middle of NYC is a dream. Even if it rains they can accommodate the party in a different space - venues with an ideal plan B for weather were extremely hard to find. Match the unique space with the perfect staff - there's nothing that could possible go wrong with choosing Bryant Park Grill as your wedding venue.

ything was all top-notch. I've gotten such wonderful feedback from our guests, who had the best time and just adored the atmosphere at the place. We are so happy to have chosen Bryant Park Grill, for this most important day in our daughter's life. She and her husband are thrilled to have started their married life together, at this oh-so very New York establishment. A+++ all the way, for Bryant Park Grill!!

ery step of the way and went above and beyond to ensure our vision came to life. Both offered their professional expertise and guidance when decisions were difficult to make and really helped make the entire process super fun and easy! It speaks volumes to the amount of times brides/grooms have reviewed BPG and specifically named Kristi and Tom! They are both amazing at what they do. I wouldn't have got through the planning process without them. Bryant Park lets you work with your own vendors which really helps you customize your day. It was also a stress free experience when we were dealing with the contract. Everything in the contract is up front and clear. Plus they're a restaurant so the food is exquisite. We chose to do our ceremony inside, cocktail hour on the roof (every single person we know took photos during this part of the evening and changed their profile pictures! Awesome photo opps with the Park in the background), dinner outside under the stars, and the reception back inside. Our guests stated it was THE BEST wedding they've ever been to from the food, to the flow of the night from one area to the next, to the atmosphere and staff. Definitely a wedding experience that stands out! Thank you again to the entire Bryant Park Staff. We give two thumbs up, 5 stars, raving reviews and definitely recommend having your New York City wedding at one of the most iconic places in Manhattan. Plus, it's not often you can go back to your wedding venue for anniversaries and celebrations, or a nice date night out for dinner and drinks. Truly a special experience we will treasure forever.

tion smooth and easy. We literally had the best night of our lives - the venue sets such a fun tone, and your guests will be obsessed! If I could do it all over again I would!

all came together beautifully on our big day! The professionalism and expertise of Kristi, Tom, and Renee truly made our wedding shine, allowing us to relax and be present for the best day of our lives with all of our family and friends. We continue to receive compliment after compliment on how it was such an amazing wedding! Also love how our package came with a stay at Bryant Park Hotel — Ciara was wonderful and the whole staff was friendly and warm and treated us like VIPs. We look forward to returning to Bryant Park Grill and Bryant Park Hotel for many years to come!

and guest list, we went for it! The Bryant Park Grill was truly INCREDIBLE and breathtaking! My husband and I got married at a church but we had our cocktail hour on the roof that overlooks Bryant Park and we had dinner and dancing inside of the restaurant. We had 140 guests and we fit comfortably in the restaurant area and the rooftop. Everyone wanted to dance so the dance floor was packed the entire night but it made the evening so fun to be surrounded by family and friends in an intimate setting! The pictures we took both inside and around the venue were breathtaking (Dreamlife Photography / Angelo - main photographer) and if I had the chance to do this all over again, I would choose the Bryant Park Grill over and over again! My husband and I worked with Arthur who walked us through all of the logistics, menus, tastings, etc. Arthur was our go-to person and he was extremely helpful and informative throughout the process. For the day-of, we had an amazing coordinator, Tom, who was calm, kind, and extremely professional. Tom made me feel at east throughout the entire night and I felt so comfortable letting him take control over the wedding we had planned for so long! The only wish I had was that I had met Tom earlier so I could have planned more with him prior to the day-of. However, everything went WONDERFULLY! All staff members were extremely professional and have been working there for such a long time. It was so much fun getting to visit and dine at the restaurant leading up to the big day. That's one of the benefits of getting married at a restaurant - you can go back and try to relive the magic! My husband and I had the wedding of our DREAMS at the Bryant Park Grill!! I hope you can have the same beautiful experience!

nning my wedding since I was little girl and I had a lot of questions but Kristi made those all disappear, and kept me calm during the process. As we got closer to the wedding I started to get more anxious and nervous and wanted everything to be as close to perfection as it could be. Reminding myself no matter what I’m sure something will go wrong. Well was I wrong, In came Tom and Kristi who are simply an amazing Team and in our final meeting the week of the wedding I went in feeling nervous and thinking how is everything going to flow!? The layout of our wedding was cocktail hour on the roof, dinner in the tented garden, and dancing and dessert in the main dining room. After that final meeting, I felt relaxed and calm as Kristi and Tom walked my parents and I through every detail. The day of the wedding I was hoping for things to be almost perfect when in fact the wedding was more than PERFECT. Tom and Kristi made every single request happen, and they did it flawlessly. It was simply magical and we owe it all to them and our wedding coordinator Allison. We did not have to worry about a single thing during the wedding. The food during cocktail hour, dinner and dessert was incredible. The staff was attentive and seriously five stars. The flow was timed perfectly. Every single detail was accomplished. In my opinion if you are looking to get married in New York City and want to actually feel like you are in New York City then this is the wedding venue for you. Besides Tom and Kristi being perfect, the city is your backdrop in every single part of Bryant Park Grill. Every other venue we looked at in the city was beautiful outside but inside just looked like every other ballroom or hall. We love Bryant Park Grill and we absolutely LOVE Kristi & Tom. They do not disappoint. They truly turned our dream into a reality.

dding and was very accommodating of our requests. If it wasn't for her diligence and perseverance, we wouldn't have had our dream wedding at BPG :-) Tom and the event staff were absolutely fantastic on the big day, and managed everything smoothly. We highly recommend the venue, and the wonderful service that Kristi and Tom provided us. We will have fond memories of that evening for the rest of our lives.

that our guests were raving about it weeks after the wedding. These would not be possible without the help of Kristi, our Catering Sales Manager. From the beginning, she exemplified her professionalism and expertise which made the whole planning process seamless. She was very responsive to all my questions (so many of them) and respond to them very timely (even at 2 in the morning!) which is something that is really hard to find these days even from your own wedding vendors. She also gives you her own expert opinion and had given me so many suggestions that I could not even have thought of which made our wedding even so much better. She was there to guide us all throughout the planning process, and her flexibility with our requests made the whole experience enjoyable. A week prior to our event, we also met with Tom who is the Director of Special Events at BPG. Tom is a very charming guy and was so accommodating to our requests. His execution of all-the-months-of-planning that day was phenomenal and very flawless that there was no major glitch in our event. He made us feel at ease and we felt that we could really rely on him and he was successfully able to do so. Lastly, the excellent service of the staff that night at BPG was exceptional and we are really very happy about that. If you have the chance to celebrate your wedding at Bryant Park Grill, they will definitely make your dreams a reality, and will make it even better than you’ve even dreamed of.

ginning to the end. Kristi did an amazing job in managing our timeline, managing our expectations and giving us the necessary pushes to make decisions when they needed to be made. A few days before the wedding Kristi introduced us to Tom who was going to ensure our vision came to life the day of the wedding. The moment we met Tom we fell in love with him. Tom have us the assurance we needed that everything was going to flow smoothly on our wedding day. Tom allowed one of our vendors to come in a bit earlier then time agreed upon. Tom allowed us to make a decision on where to have our cocktail hour depending on the weather the day of the wedding which are decisions that are usually made way in advance! Tom was just amazing! The Bryant Park Grill staff was accommodating to our guest, the service was phenomenal all around. Last but certainly not the least, the food!! We couldn't believe the rave reviews we received about the food! The food from cocktail hour through the reception was plentiful and delicious! I can go on an on about the Bryant Park Grill, Kristi and Tom, but to believe it you have to experience it yourself! If you want to have the best wedding ever, the Bryant Park Grill and their team will make your dreams come true!

the event, Tom was such a calming presence and it is clear that he knows exactly what he is doing and does it well. We felt so taken care of by both of them as well as all of the staff, the night was seamless and everything was executed just perfectly. The space is super elegant and looked especially beautiful at night with the large windows displaying New York City. We are still getting feedback from friends and family raving about both the cocktail hour as well as the seated dinner and delicious dessert bar. All of our guests had an incredible night and we can't express how happy we are with our decision. Thank you Bryant Park Grill for making our day amazing!

m made a perfect team that navigated us through the hustle and bustle that is a Manhattan wedding. We had countless guests come to us to tell us how this was the best wedding they've ever been to. Thank you, everyone!

e entire process was seamless. There was never a question that was not responded to within the day by Kristi. She provided guidance and support, while always being extremely approachable and kind. We all attended the tasting and that was the icing on the cake; knowing that the food and the service were both impeccable. The wedding was absolutely flawless. From the ceremony to the cocktail party, the dinner and dancing, Tom insured that every detail was attended to. We did not have to think about one aspect. He was a true professional and perfectionist on our behalf. The fact that the four of us were so pleased with the event would have been more than enough for us, but the compliments and feedback we received from so many of our guests was just wonderful. From raving over the food to loving dining and dancing under the stars, our guests had nothing but lovely and sincere comments to share. We are so grateful to Kristi and Tom for making our wedding feel like it was truly important to them.

the quality and taste of the food even said “best wedding dinner I’ve ever had”.

manding jobs and lifestyles, so the thought of an out of state wedding seemed a bit ambitious. Within the days following our engagement, I connected with Linda whose energy, excitement and enthusiasm instantly made me feel not only excited but comforted. Over the course of the next 8 months she provided me with support and resources when needed, when it came to hiring vendors and knowing what things to be mindful of; was accommodating and flexible when it came to booking our tasting so that my parents and would be able to attend with us; and was genuinely a delight to work with. In the weeks leading up to my wedding, Linda had assured me that I didn’t need a day of planner; but out of fear I hired one (more so to have a point person for everything leading up to the ceremony/reception). While the planner was lovely and an asset for the pre-wedding festivities (makeup, hair, and photos), the minute we were on site it became instantly clear that Tom had everything under control- to a level my family and I couldn’t have even expected. From the staff, to the vendors, to the movement of the ceremony into the reception, he did it all- and with ease. The day of our wedding was without a doubt, the happiest day of each of our lives. I think back on the day, and I get overwhelmed with joy and excitement thinking about how simply perfect it was, for not only us but our guests. The staff at the Bryant Park Grill provided us with everything and more- from the food, to the drinks, to the service; I can confidently say if given the chance to do it all again, I wouldn't change a thing, and would recommend the BPG to any Bride! (Married, August 2017)

y easy. The food here is incredible! We had to come back to pick something up a few weeks after the wedding and the hostess remembered us, the staff is wonderful.

wedding. They are true professionals who strove to make our event everything we could have hoped for. Other venues may have great food or great service or a great location, but Bryant Park Grill has it all. Our 175 guests raved about the exceptional food and thought the venue itself was beyond compare. Our ceremony was on the rooftop terrace, the cocktail hour, dancing and dessert were in the dining room, and the seated dinner was in the tented garden terrace. Having all three areas meant that nothing needed to be torn down and then reconfigured, which made transitioning from one part of the evening to the other seamless. We highly recommend Bryant Park Grill for anyone's special event. It is a truly beautiful, amazing venue and the food, from appetizer through dessert, was outstanding. Everyone was an absolute joy to work with and always responsive to any questions we had during the planning process.

eautiful rooftop, overlooking the park and right next to the public library, then had our cocktail hour in the patio adjacent to the restaurant, followed by our reception inside the restaurant itself. It's an absolutely beautiful space and I loved that there we three distinct spaces for each part of the wedding. It also feels like you are in the heart of the city, but also surrounded by greenery, which is hard to come by. Alex and Tom were very helpful throughout the planning process and were able to answer any questions or concerns I had. The food was fantastic, many guests told me that the steak was the best steak they've ever had at a wedding. The service was very good too and of course the space absolutely lovely. If you are looking for a NYC wedding that is elegant, romantic, and timeless, without totally breaking the bank, this is absolutely the best venue.

xceptional experience!

wedding as well as leading up to it made it a stress-free, fun, tasty day not only for us, but for all of our guests(135 total). Months later people are still telling us what a great time they had at the wedding and how wonderful everything was including the setting and food/drink. Kristi Ohlin was our point of contact from day one until we were married and the event over. Kristi was extremely responsive, patient when necessary, and gave us a push at times when decisions needed to be made. We were on a tight timeline having gotten engaged 5 months earlier, we picked BPG with just under 4 months to the wedding day. Even with the tight timeline, we were able to have a terrific wedding. The cliche holds true that planning a wedding is stressful, but Kristi made it less stressful, by always being so quick to respond and nonjudgemental. When we wanted to switch out one bread for another, she made it happen. When we wanted fingerlings instead of mashed potatoes on the menu she made it happen, and the list goes on....When we wanted to try alternative layouts for both the ceremony and reception, she produced layouts and then shared her thoughts- both pros and cons. Typically BPG puts the dance floor on the north. We wanted it in the center and it worked out great. We took her advice though not to alter the ceremony layout. We came to appreciate and value her candor and recommendations. Kristi told me that we would not have to worry about a thing once we stepped in the door of Bryant Park Grill on our wedding day. Somehow I didn't believe it because prior there were so many details my fiance and I were following up on as there is with any wedding. It was hard to imagine we wouldn't have to deal with anything that day, but Kristi was absolutely right- Kristi, Tom and the staff were on top of every detail. Kristi said by the day of the wedding her work is complete and its really up to Tom and the staff to carry out all the planning. Even so, by then she knew me and my family, so she was helpful to us on this day- making sure everyone was where they were supposed to be and when. Tom and his assistant enabled the whole event to happen without one glitch. Two things stand out: First, little did I know how much it would mean to me that Kristi put my veil on (my mom had already gone to line up). Second, Tom stood with me as I was waiting right before I walked down the aisle (as I was walking alone since my dad passed)- meaning I was not standing awkwardly/sad alone since my dad was not there. Tom gave me a sweet nod, Kristi a hug and off I went. In short, it is the personal service that really stands out. And yes, the food was fantastic, our DJ rocked, and as Kristi said: your guests will never be standing without a drink in their hand. They made it all happen, including recommending and receiving vendors(flowers/dj/cake etc...) but above and beyond it all, it was the lovely setting and the lovely people that made it a great experience and a day many will remember for a long time. I highly recommend Bryant Park Grill!

an exceeded our expectations for our wedding in August 2016, We booked the entire venue for our wedding of 100 people. We had the cocktail hour on the roof, dinner and the dessert buffet in the grill and cigars and a photo booth in the garden. Our guests cannot stop talking about how great our wedding was at the Bryant Park Grill. Kristi was great in working with us and all of our vendors. She was always professional and extremely detailed and organized. She and Tom took care of every single detail including the bride and groom cocktails, the menu, happy birthday for my nephew and the groom’s son, sparkling cider for my nephews and step son. The service was wonderful the night of the event. The event flowed perfectly from the cocktail hour to dinner and dancing to the cake. For the cocktail hour, the hor d’oeurves kept coming out and our guests never had an empty glass. The food was a delicious. We had additional desserts brought in and Tom had them set up in a beautiful display. The Bryant Park Grill has very colorful chairs and we decided to go with lots of color for our flowers to play off the chairs. Also, we had votive and hurricane candles placed all along the windows for a very romantic feeling.

he city convenient to get to and beautiful for photos. The staff also worked so well with all of vendors, it just so happened that they all had known each other and had nothing but good things to say about everyone we had chosen and vice versa. The space had a great flow from the wedding ceremony on the roof to the cocktail hour also on the roof; we had chosen against the garden because it felt too public but it never felt over crowded. The staff kept us on time and had the bridal party on a good schedule; I never questioned our decision to not have a day of coordinator. The food was great from the cocktail hour to dinner and the gorgeous dessert table everything was perfect (even better than the tasting we had). The drinks were delicious as well, we had planned to have a wedding cocktail, a French75, it was classic refreshing and perfect every time. The outside of the building and the roof twinkling with lights that evening and even with the light rain everything was just absolutely beautiful, everything you would want and expect. Thank you so much to the team at Bryant Park Grill for helping make our wedding day so special!

sti and Tom, we were blown away by the level of customer service. I live in Washington, DC, so most of my planning was done via email and phone with Kristi, who seemed to respond to all of my emails within minutes - even when she was on vacation! I am a very Type A bride, and Kristi was patient, kind, and calming, never showing annoyance with my hundreds (literally) of questions. Kristi provided guidance and input on everything from vendor options (especially helpful since I was not in NYC) to food to event flow. Our menu tasting was a wonderful event on its own, and BPG was also very accommodating of vendor walk throughs (and walkthroughs when I was visiting and just wanted to see the gorgeous venue one more time). We bought out the entire venue, and had cocktail hour on the roof, dinner in the tented garden, and dancing and dessert buffet inside the grill. It was perfection in every way. Tom, the event coordinator, was spectacular. He and Kristi are a seamless team, and went above and beyond to ensure that every special request and small detail we had was executed flawlessly - from flip flops for the dance floor to moving flower centerpieces from the garden to the grill after dinner, to the sparkler send off. We also tip our hats to the chef and staff, who created an incredible meal, great drinks (including a watermelon margarita slushy specialty cocktail), and superb customer service experience. There is literally not a single thing I would have changed about the event space, service, or planning experience. Bryant Park Grill was a dream location with a dream team. Thank you Kristi, Tom, and colleagues!

r all of their efforts as well as the other BPG team members, who made our wedding day great!

ons, I didn’t have high expectations we could make the math work. However, after first contacting and then meeting with the catering manager, Kristi Ohlin, we realized that not only could we make it work, but that we had found someone who was ready, willing and able to help us put together what I can only describe as an enchanting and magical evening with our friends and loved ones. We held our ceremony upstairs on the second floor roof garden and the reception downstairs in the main dining room. The beauty of the gardens, the flowers and great lawn of Bryant Park were an extension of the event spaces making both feel larger and grander than they would have in any other location. The food was amazing. Kristi invited us to a special menu tasting where we were able to sample several different salads, appetizers, entrees and of course, desserts, along with a variety of house wines to help us come up with the perfect combination for the evening. As our event date approached, Kristi was helpful in keeping us on track with a gentle nudge here and there when needed. She was always quick to answer any questions or concerns we had and let us plan a wedding with enough structure to keep the evening moving but without feeling like we were forced to follow a rigid or more traditional path. On the night of our wedding, Kristi, her colleague Tom Ferretti (our special on-site coordinator) and the entire Bryant Park Grill staff executed flawlessly. It’s not an exaggeration to say that watching Tom work was a bit like watching a conductor and his orchestra. Orders were taken quickly and discreetly. The food was plated and presented beautifully. Drink glasses were never empty for long. In short, we were well taken care of and all of our guests had a wonderful time. It went so well and all fell into place so seamlessly that in some ways it felt like something we had been rehearsing all our lives for, when in fact, we had no such practice or experience. Thank you Kristi, Tom, and everyone at BPG for, truly, a night to remember.

d such a smooth day. It was a DREAM. Tom and Linda were amazing to work with. They answered all of our questions and even went the extra mile to do things that we hadn't thought of. It was 1000% the most amazing day of our lives. The staff was full service so professional. They even made custom drinks for us called "The Adam" jalapeño margarita and "The Kaci" cucumber mojito. I can't say enough good things about this magnificent venue. 5 stars!!!!!

and rooftop) and various options for organizing your event depending on the season. We held our ceremony and cocktail hour in their clear-tented patio, looking out into Bryant Park (so lovely as the sun was setting), and our reception/party in the main dining room. The planning process was incredibly smooth thanks to their wonderful staff. Kristi Ohlin coordinated our event and she was amazing to work with - professional, quick to respond to questions, and so helpful with her advice. She truly cared about making our event successful and personal. Our day-of coordinator Tom was a great presence on the day of the wedding and his entire staff was excellent. Kristi and Tom coordinated with all of our vendors as well, and they made it possible for us to feel so comfortable and confident that they would take care of every detail! They were a pleasure to work with. The food was delicious and the chef was accommodating of our all of our requests, including modifying the menu to be kosher style. We loved hosting our wedding in a restaurant setting and our guests raved about the food and the fun mini dessert bar. We can't recommend Bryant Park Grill more highly for a wedding or any event. Thanks to Kristi and the entire staff for your amazing work!

The catering manager Kristi and the day of coordinator Tom are total pros and so WARM. And since I am all about feelings, I knew the moment I met them both we were in excellent hands. They both went above and beyond to provide my husband and I along with our family and friends the most special night. Besides that, the whole staff is rock-solid, the food is DELISH and the venue itself, well it's about as magical as it gets in New York City. To my fellow NYC wedding wanting brides, look no further than Bryant Park Grill. Give Kristi a call and tell them Kelly (the shine on girl sent ya) Have so much fun:) Missing my wedding already.

ion in the terrace and dancing/dessert in the restaurant space. The order of the evening and unique qualities of each room really added to the all-encompassing celebration throughout the night. We're still getting compliments at how delicious the food was. Our main courses were the filet mignon and sea bass - Everyone loved the food - kudos to BPG! Arthur Tarzy was an absolute dream come true to work with. His professionalism, sensitivity and heartfelt advice leading up to the wedding day (and on the wedding day) were incredible. While you're thinking of the perfect venue to tie the knot in, also seek out the quality of the event team you'll be working with. The entire Bryant Park Grill team did a magnificent job making our wedding day memorable, seamless and the night of our lives! We love visiting BPG and referring the venue to our friends. Absolutely worth checking out!

ort card table and sweetheart table, Bryant Park's staff went above and beyond. Peter and I did family style seating in the garden, not the typical for BPG. It was important for me to have that detail, it was executed flawlessly. Tom was our Maitre d' for the evening, he is truly best in class. He made sure that timing was correct from start to finish. Tom executed the night flawlessly. Bryant Park is truly a gem amongst all the venues to choose from in Manhattan. Peter and I hope to celebrate every wedding anniversary at the BPG, remembering our wedding reception under the stars. Thank you, BPG!

commodating and helpful to our every want and need and kept us calm throughout the whole planning process and even when an unexpected turn of events occurred on our wedding day with a last minute officiant switch - our actual officiant went into labor on our wedding day! - they were so helpful. To this day so many of my friends and family say that our wedding was the best one they ever attended and I believe them! The food was fantastic, drinks flowing profusely, and the actual venue with our flowers and color choices just came to life for an early fall night. It was a bit chilly but we do not regret the choice to hold the reception on the rooftop, it was beautiful. A lot of our friends and family had never experienced a real New York City wedding and we feel that we truly delivered on holding a contemporary and warm wedding in the heart of the city that no one will forget - we certainly won't!

nned for that night. Our cocktail hour was held in the tented garden area, which had breathtaking views of the park and city. It just felt so romantic and magical to be in the middle of Bryant Park enjoying the time with our family and friends. The whole experience was a dream come true! Everything was top class from the food to the service. BPG's chef even helped us accommodate our guests with food allergies/ sensitivities. The entire staff at BPG were absolutely wonderful, professional and the nicest people! We will be forever grateful to Tom and Linda for organizing and expertly managing every single detail that made our wedding run smoothly and a success.

em with in-house table numbers better than I could have imagined. Tom and Linda are an incredible team and were true wedding pros from coordinating the ceremony, guests arrivals, and even giving this hungry bride appetizers as we finished signing the marriage license. Our guests can't stop raving about the incredible food, venue, and service that truly made our wedding a day we will never forget.

O DIE FOR. And for a few of my guests, it was their first time in NYC and Bryant Park Grill gave them an amazing first impression. People are still talking about it four months after. Our day of man/Banquet Director, Tom Ferretti, helped us the entire night with kindness and ease. Him and his staff were never intrusive and always kind. I wish I got them name of the server who was basically assigned to serve me and my husband. He came from nowhere with a smile and kept our little champagne flukes full of Coke-a-Cola all night. :D And get the dessert buffet, no one will regret it. An amazing venue. Kind service. Excellent food. Unforgettable.

ceremony was on the rooftop, cocktail reception was in the outdoor area on the side of the restaurant and dinner and dancing inside. The food was fantastic, my guests raved about the food and the day was perfect.

e think and have been told that our reception was perfection -- my husband's mother describes the night as "magical" -- and the thanks go to the fantastic Bryant Park Grill. We worked with Linda, who was always in touch and very accommodating, and Tom, who was professional and always seemed to be steps ahead of everyone's possible needs. ALL of our guests enjoyed their meals. And we can not say enough great things about Anne-Marie Noonan, BPG's brilliant pastry chef, who made our amazing wedding cake (delicious and beautiful -- everyone is still raving about it). We truly couldn't be happier and will always be appreciative to everyone at BPG for making our day so incredible.

nsure our guests were cool and comfortable. Even though we had our ceremony on the rooftop, the cocktail hour flowed from the roof to inside (not the original plan) given the heat. The BPG had extra fans on hand, as well. The service was impeccable, food was better than expected and everything flowed beautifully. It was class all the way. And given the perfect backdrop of the city and Bryant Park, it truly was the perfect New York City wedding.

Tom manages the dining room and he was the BEST! If I could do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing!

ark Grill does tons of weddings and the sales manager as well as the restaurant staff know exactly what they are doing to make sure your event runs beautifully. My family, friends, husband & myself were blown away by the quality of the food and the great atmosphere of the venue. The rooftop ceremony & cocktail hour was a special highlight, especially because the rooftop tent overlooks the beautiful Bryant Park. My husband and I wanted a quintessential New York wedding for a reasonable price, and we were not disappointed. I cannot recommend Bryant Park enough.
