    Amazing Wedding

    My son and daughter in law celebrated their wedding on 9/24/23. What an amazing night we all had. Chris and his team were great and so accommodating. Anything we wanted or needed was taken care of immediately. Thankfully, Chris was able to let us in the evening before to decorate the room how we wanted it. We had use of the bridal suite for everyone to get ready which was so great because we didn't have to worry about going from place to place for hair and makeup etc. The makeup artist and hair stylist were there setting up when we arrived at 10AM. The ceremony was there as well. The staff set up the area for the ceremony and it was perfect. After the ceremony was the cocktail hour and then to the main event. Walking into the main room, seeing all of the hard work and planning that went into this come together was just breathtaking. Everything from the lighting, to the servers, to the food was just spectacular. I would highly recommend this venue to everyone.

    Amazing Venue

    Chris Cenci and his staff at a Grand Plaza made my wedding an amazing and stress free experience. They brought my visions to reality and even better. Chris was extremely accommodating to anything we needed. From the very first day we met, all the way until after the wedding, Chris was attentive to our needs, wishes and concerns. The food from cocktail hour and dinner was great. The venue space was decorated beautifully and the staff was so accommodating to guests. I would recommend the Grand Plaza to anyone looking to host a wedding or party. I couldn’t be happier with our experience. The staff at Grand Plaza go out of their way to make sure your day is special.

    The best part of my wedding

    This venue is THE venue you need to see when booking your wedding. The pricing is more than fair for a venue of their stature and included a LOT. 3 tier cake, 3 course meal plus passed hour derves, and open bar are just a few things included in our package, and there are multiple tiers depending on your vision (and budget) for your most special day! Our contact person Chris Cenci was incredibly sweet and answered all of our questions prior to booking, and made us feel comfortable and at home in the venue. Then on the day of (as things tend to do) there were so many last minute changes with decisions being made on the fly and Chris handled everything quickly and with the utmost professionalism. The wait staff was attentive to our and our guests needs, and the food was beyond phenomenal and was a hit with our guests, and the cake was gorgeous. I really can not speak too highly of this venue, and I plan to do every big event going forward at the elegant Grand Plaza! As soon as I get some photos back from my photographer, I'll add those in too!

    Amazing time

    I have my most wonderful time here with my family and friends. I wed here and when I first came here, Chris and Allison are the most welcoming people I have ever met. They kindly explain everything and make sure that everything is perfect for my big day. Kristina is the best for staying close and keeping us fed and staying hydrated. Omg, best place for me to be a princess

    Mrs Bennett

    This place is nothing short of Amazing! The Grand Plaza and its staff are truly everything you would ask for in a venue. To the start of my Wedding planning and booking the Grand Plaza, Chris Cenci was wonderful. I didn't have the deposit needed to secure the date and Chris penciled me in with my word. He saved the date for me, no other place would ever do that, especially in wedding season. But I assured him my heart was set on the Grand Plaza and he worked with me. I felt like family from the start. I had so many ideas and emailed and called and visited Chris with everything and he paid close attention and made sure everything was brought to life! When I reached the Grand Plaza on my wedding day, i was in Awe. Tara my assistant and bartender waited on me all night. My guest were raving about her courteous ways, always asking them if they were ok and she kept the drinks flowing. The servers were kind and patient and the food was delicious! Worth every penny I spent. They cater one wedding at a time, so you get the whole venue to yourself. My guest kept guessing which room was next from the ceremony in one room to cocktail hr in another room and the Reception in the Grand Ballroom. I am so happy with choosing the Grand Plaza!

    Absolutely amazing! From start to finish the Grand Plaza was amazing when booking our wedding. Chris the manager was great to work with helping to set up the perfect day. Throughout the entire year leading up the wedding Chris worked with us in setting up everything from the ceremony, to the cocktail hour and the reception. Chris was great at answering all our questions and worked with us when setting up the ceremony space. When having to go to the venue early for our first look because of rain, Chris assured me it was not a problem and everything work out beautifully. The entire staff at the Grand Plaza was so attentive to our needs and made the day perfect. The food was great during our taste test and again during our event. The staff worked well with our venders helping to provide a smooth process throughout the day. My husband and I cannot thank the Grand Plaza enough for all they did in helping to create our special day. I recommend them for any event you are planning, as you will receive great service, wonderful food and a passionate team who knows their stuff when putting together a great party.

    The Grand Plaza was the setting for our wedding in June, 2016. The went above and beyond to help and make our day as special as can be. We had both our ceremony and reception at the hall. Chris Cenci who was our event planner really helped and create such a memorable day. He made sure everything went off without a hitch. The food was amazing, the lighting and ambiance was perfect, the setup was great. Everything about our wedding day was absolutely memorable and the Grand Plaza helped to create those memories!

    The Grand Plaza is one of Staten Island's most lavish catering facilities. The Grand Plaza hosts only one wedding at a time along with creatively planned menus to make your wedding day unique. Choose from one of the tastefully planned menus or have an executive chef plan a personalized menu. From start to finish you and your guests will be pampered the whole night through. Grand plaza is the only venue to have beautiful up lighting built right into their ceiling which offers a little something extra for your big day! The Grand Plaza offers exquisite ambiance, gourmet food and a dedication of quality that is second to none. When looking for the finest quality and service.

    They allowed me and my bridal party to get ready in the bridal suite. They food was to die for! The atmosphere was out of this world! Chris the manager was there from day one the first day when we looked at the venue to the day we got married! They truly made my day magical I will never forget my wedding day for as long as I live!

    I am pleasantly surprised with my overall experience with the Grand Plaza considering there were many times when I thought I made a mistake booking them. We initially booked them because the price was right and the service seemed great. But that service wasn't so great when it came to actually getting things done. The event planner didn't know who I was and I never had her full attention. She would say yes but then completely disregard and ignore me. I had to say something to the manager before they got their act together. Thankfully they came through on my wedding day. They brought my vision to life and executed all the details beautifully. The staff was professional, friendly, and quick. I thought the salmon was delicious but people who had the steak or chicken said it was dry. My now-husband's favorite dish is chicken marsala and he was completely let down. But the venue was great for our wedding type and size so we were happy with how everything turned out.
