We had our wedding here on 9.22.18 and it was the best night of our lives. The Queens Museum is absolutely stunning! Both of our families are local to Queens/NYC so being able to get married here had a special meaning to us. As a same sex couple, we definitely wanted to bend traditions a little bit and pick a non-traditional wedding venue. The Queens Museum fit the bill perfectly with its soaring ceilings, beautiful artwork and, of course, the NYC Panorama. As many other reviewers have pointed out, our guests were in complete shock and awe the entire time, and so were we! DelishNY provided the catering and Emily Herbig, the catering manager and coordinator, was in what felt like nearly constant contact for over a year. 2 months before the wedding, we were thrown a curve ball by the announcement of a gigantic concert happening a stones throw away from our wedding. This caused us to completely freak out. Emily was cool, calm and collected and went above and beyond for us. She worked with the NYPD, the museum, the parks department and concert organizers to make sure our guests had zero trouble arriving and the two events co-existed beautifully. The food was also delicious and high end. There were so many options, narrowing down and choosing the final menu was a monumental task. Also, DelishNY also owns a staffing company who staffed our wedding with the most wonderful, hardworking people. The Queens Museum gave us the cosmopolitan, black tie modern wedding we've been dreaming of having. One important note on the venue if you're already considering having your event here. Lighting design is absolutely critical and will set the mood and tone for the entire affair. I've worked in production in the past so I know what professional lighting can cost and it might cause some sticker shot to you. Trust me, it's well worth the price. Use the designer that Emily recommends who has lit the space many times.

From our first contact with Emily from Delish NY, we could tell she was dedicated to working with us to ensure our ideas became reality, answering hundreds of questions throughout the process, always with super quick replies. The space is incredibly customizable, and with Emily’s help, will turn out exactly how you imagined it. On the catering side, we originally considered using an outside caterer, but that plan fell through about three months before the wedding. Luckily, Delish was available and was able to seamlessly provide our catering despite the tight timeline. We opted to serve dinner family-style, which proved to be a great way for everyone to have seconds (and thirds)! We hope to enjoy DelishNY’s amazing food again, and look forward to continuing to support our wedding venue in the future!

Two weekends ago, my wife and I were married at the Queens Museum. Upon seeing the Museum together for the first time, we fell in love with it. The modernity of the space, high ceilings, airy light, the Unisphere, the Park, the art and exhibits and warm staff allowed us to look no further for a wedding venue. Emily Herbig met with us and assured us of a great experience and on the day of our wedding, she and her staff came through. Indeed it was! Our guests raved about the Museum, the food provided by the Museum's in-house caterer, Delish NY and together with all of the vendors that we hired working together seamlessly, it was a dream wedding come true!
