The Bordone was one of the only venues we considered, and as soon as we discovered it, we knew it was the one. From transparent pricing and flexibility around almost all vendors, to Kimberly's responsive and friendly attitude in working with us...

from start to finish, The Bordone was a great place to host our wedding. Our guests were dazzled by the views of the city skyline from the terrace and the city lights all around once dark fell. We also loved being able to use the upper terrace for some pre-wedding photos with our bridal party and got some truly special shots of the Queensboro Bridge, which holds special significance for us. One of the features of this space is that it's a blank canvas, but the kitchen came with a number of amenities that saved us money, and overall we found that this allowed us to control our costs and decide where to splurge versus save.

We switched our venue to The Bordone LIC after our 2020 venue fell through, and it could not have worked out better for us. The views and the space are stunning on their own, but it's also a raw space so you can bring things in to make it your ...

own. Kimberly and Mary were responsive and accommodating. We were able to go back to the venue 2 months before the wedding with our planner for a walk through which was easy to schedule. When we had questions about hanging things, everyone was responsive and clear. The venue has some of the best views of Manhattan I've ever seen, and LIC is a great little pocket of NYC many of my local and out of town guests alike had fun exploring.

If you're looking for a venue that screams "New York City", The Bordone is the one for you! It was the first venue we visited and we only had to visited a few more before we knew it was the one. Its breathtaking views of the Manhattan skyline a...

re unparalleled and makes you feel like you're right up close. Everyone I worked with (Mary, Jules, Kimberly) were all fantastic. I had to postpone by a year due to the pandemic and my new date fell in peak season so I did have to pay extra but they honored the rate from 2020, which still saved me a lot of money. On the day of the wedding, everything went so smoothly with their help and I couldn't have been happier, dancing with friends with the sparkling city lights right outside. Keep in mind that The Bordone is a raw space - I had a very specific vision for my wedding so I was looking for a blank canvas that I could decorate to my taste and the Bordone fit that bill. However, with the stunning skyline as a backdrop, you don't even really need to do much to make it an unforgettable evening!

We had the most beautiful wedding at The Bordone. We were married right before everything in New York City became locked down, and Jules and Mary at The Bordone were so generous and kind in the midst of the uncertainty. We knew as soon as we vi...

sited that it was the perfect venue for our small cocktail wedding. Because of the pandemic we had a few last minute changes to the wedding itself, and Jules was able to work closely with us and our wedding planner to help make the day as smooth and fun as possible. Thank you!

I loved The Bordone! Not only was it a stunning venue (those views cannot be beat!) but Jules, Mary, and James were a dream to work with. They were super responsive, let us explore the space multiple times, communicated with our wedding planner...
