Hi everyone! My professional career started out as an attorney. As much as I loved practicing law, I rarely felt fulfilled. That all changed when I decided to plan events The Box House Hotel.
I've witnessed smiles, tears (happy tears of course), laughter, immediate gratification, and pure bliss during each event. Despite all the effort I put in, I couldn't do it without my team. And due to the success of our venture at The Box House Hotel, we are now happy to bring our efforts to Williamsburg in our latest venture - VESPER!
Planning your wedding with us means that you'll have access to our incredible chefs, planners, designers, and coordinators. Together we will go above and beyond to make your night special and unique!

When we first booked Vesper for our wedding venue it was still a construction site, but Joe, Abbas, and Nick helped us see the vision of what it would become. They were extremely p...
atient with us and answered all of our questions from the first day we met them. The venue is in an amazing location, in the heart of Williamsburg, with unrivaled views of the Manhattan skyline. What really stands out to us about our experience with Vesper is the level of hospitality and service that the staff hold themselves to. The team worked with us on every detail both big and small and it made for an unforgettable night for us. Anyone looking for a unique NYC venue with views and a rooftop - this is the place!

We contracted for our daughter's wedding at Vesper in March 2025, a few months before the space was completed. Joe Torres gave us the tour and his vision of a modern, state of the ...
art and high end wedding venue with spectacular views of Manhattan became clear the second we walked into the main room, saw the grand space and were amazed by the views.
The other truly unique angle on Vesper is that they cater delicious Latin/Mediterranean fusion cuisine for their events. Our guests could not stop raving about the food from hors d'oeuvres at cocktail hour through the dinner and ending with great party bites at the after-party.
We threw a black tie 200+ person wedding, including the ceremony, at Vesper. The space is very well designed to transition from ceremony to cocktails through to the main reception and after party. Joe, Nick and the entire team approached the months long planning process as a collaborative effort where they really listened and helped us arrive at the perfect selection of hors d'oeuvres, main food selections, wines and spirits.
While the Vesper team offers full wedding planning services, we opted to bring in our own planners. A word of advice if you choose to go this route is to make sure your planners are communicating with the Vesper team throughout the process and to join the final discussion on the run of day with the planners and the Vesper team all together several days before the event. This will ensure smooth sailing on the day of. We did have a couple of hiccups mainly regarding a few aspects of bar/drink service that we are sure will be fully addressed by Vesper going forward.
The wedding was a wonderful and elegant occasion. We highly recommend Vesper for a beautiful, unique, and unforgettable experience.

In the face of sub-zero temperatures, high winds and potential for snow testing our winter wedding dreams, we are extremely grateful to The Box House Hotel, Vesper Events, and Room...
11 Productions teams for mobilizing to keep us all safe, warm, well fed, and in high spirits to celebrate this milestone in style. The Box House team, including event designers Daryna and Mariel were creative, attentive, and committed to ensuring our wedding felt like us and developed a warm, inviting, and special look for the event. I appreciated that they handled coordinating gorgeous florals with Pink Jasmine designs. Our day-of coordinator Robyn, along with the team Nick, Joe, Micaela, and Mitchell went above and beyond in ensuring our wedding day would surpass our expectations at both the hotel rooftop and eventually in their sister venue Vesper event space. Both venues promised beautiful cityscape views from 360-degree floor-to-ceiling windows, and when we ended up at Vesper due to inclement weather, the skyline on the Williamsburg waterfront at sunset during our ceremony was simply spectacular. The AV team with their partner Room 11 created a beautiful ambiance with colored lights on their beautiful wave ceiling installation, expertly coordinated with our DJ/musician hybrid team of artists. The catering was outstanding; our guests raved about our menu offerings and we very much enjoyed the tasting experience to make our selections. I was especially excited that our entire menu could be gluten-free without any extra effort, and that they could provide a naked wedding cake in addition to their dessert offerings. I chose The Box House for their all-inclusive package and minimizing the amount of different vendors I needed to work with made the process so much less stressful. We highly recommend The Box House Hotel and Vesper teams for a beautiful NYC wedding.

We chose VESPER because the moment you arrive, the views and the ceiling do the talking! Standing with our families and looking out at NYC Skyline felt like the whole day slowed do...
wn in the best way. It’s rare to find a venue that feels elevated without feeling cold, but VESPER somehow manages to feel both stunning and welcoming.
The service and hospitality were steady, calm, and genuinely kind. We had a lot of moving parts—225 guests, full ceremony, cocktail hour, reception for 200+, vendors coming in and out—and the team handled it with a quiet confidence that kept us from spiraling. Anytime a question popped up, Robyn, our included*** Day of Coordinator already had a solution! And the food... The tasting, which was held at their other venue, Box House, was one of the highlights of our entire planning season. It didn’t feel like “checking a box,” it felt like a real date night, albeit shared with some other couples which was kinda awesome because we were able to chit chat with them about their experiences—course after course, each one somehow better than the last. We still talk about the short rib and the way the staff walked us through flavors and pairings without being pretentious. If you want a wedding day that feels intentional, cared for, and genuinely enjoyable—not just pretty in photos—VESPER delivered!!!!

PLANNER POV: So this was actually the first time I have ever planned a wedding out of state I must say it was so easy and wonderful working with the team at VESPER. If you’re the k...
ind of person who cares about both aesthetics and execution, VESPER is the rare venue that delivers on both. The views are a huge part of the experience everyone kept mentioning the views especially since this wedding had a ton of out of towners and it made every moment feel so much more special without needing extra “stuff” to dress it up.
What impressed me most was how professional the team was with logistics. Load-in, setup, transitions, and timing all stayed smooth. We had pretty much every vendor possible on site, plus a tight ceremony-to-cocktail-to-reception flow, and the staff stayed proactive instead of reactive. That matters.
Hospitality was consistent all night. Guests were greeted warmly, questions were answered quickly, and nothing ever felt chaotic. Even small moments like helping guests check their coats and get settled or discreetly checking in with me about timing made a difference.
Food was a major win. Everything from welcome drinks, to cocktail hour, to the main dinner reception were incredible!! The team handled preferences and dietary needs clearly in the month's proceeding while we settled in on menu selections.
Ultimately, VESPER is a beautiful setting, but more importantly, it’s a well-run operation—exactly what you want on a wedding day.

I had my Mehndi ( pre-wedding ceremony) at VESPER and it was one of the most unforgettable nights of my life! The space is absolutely beautiful with incredible views that make you ...
feel like you’re right in the heart of New York City. At night, the skyline looked magical through the windows, it gave the whole evening such a dreamy, cinematic feel!
The atmosphere inside was just as amazing. The lighting and the ceiling design completely transformed the space. The soft glow, reflections, and modern touches created such a cool, vibrant energy that fit perfectly with the spirit of a Mehndi. It felt elegant but still full of life, which is exactly what I wanted!
Abbas and the rest of the VESPER team were phenomenal from start to finish. They understood the vision and brought it to life so seamlessly! Every detail was handled with care, from the layout to the timing, and they made sure everything flowed effortlessly so my now husband could relax and truly enjoy the night.
My friends and family are still talking about how beautiful the venue was and how stunning the views looked once the city lights came on. VESPER gave me the perfect NYC wedding experience, stylish, warm, and absolutely unforgettable! I couldn’t have asked for anything more!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Incredible night at an incredible venue
We hosted our Fire Department’s Annual Dinner Dance and Awards Night at VESPER, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better ...
experience.
I’ll admit, we were a little unsure at first since the space is brand new. But from the very beginning, the team put us at ease. They were super organized, communicative, and clearly knew what they were doing. It was clear they’d done this before, even if the venue was just opening.
The space is absolutely gorgeous. The views of the city are unbelievable, and the LED ceiling created such an amazing atmosphere. It made the whole night feel extra special.
The food was top notch. Every plate looked amazing and tasted even better. And the service was just as impressive—everyone on staff was kind, professional, and on point all night long.
If you’re thinking about booking an event at VESPER, do it. The space is stunning, the food is fantastic, and the team is rock solid. They helped us pull off an unforgettable night.
