The Report:
The Wythe Hotel, located in the ever-changing Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, was created in a factory space originally built in 1901. Now a 70-room hotel, the building still retains many of it’s former factory elements, including heavy yellow pine beams, pine ceilings, original masonry and brick walls, arched windows and cast-iron columns. In addition to serving as a hotel, the Wythe has hosted everything from business meetings, weddings, celebratory cocktail receptions, and fundraising galas, to intimate dinner parties and brunches. All of their event menus are created in-house by Reynard, Andrew Tarlow’s ground-floor restaurant, with menus featuring seasonal, locally-sourced American fare accompanied by minimally-processed wines and spirits.
Woman Getting Married Says:
Brides have reported amazing service from this Brooklyn wedding venue, and love it as a hotel as well. While their minimums are higher than other venues where you can bring in your own caterer, the good news is you get A LOT for your money which will help offset the cost. If you love this venue but have a tighter wedding budget, I would think about a Sunday wedding here in peak season months, or even a March wedding if you don’t mind less mingling in the outside space due to cold temps.
