Loft and Rooftop Wedding Venue in NYC
Say I do in a downtown loft with a garden on the roof. 419 Lafayette is a loft wedding venue in NYC located at 419 Lafayette St Floor 7, in the heart of NoHo, in downtown Manhattan.
The building is historic, the room is industrial and full of natural light, and the rooftop above it looks out over the city. Some couples book it for an intimate ceremony. Others take the whole day. What follows is roughly how that day runs, in order.
Afternoon: The Ceremony
Set the ceremony with rows facing front and an aisle down the middle, or in the round if that suits you better. Almost nothing is fixed, so the room takes the shape of your ceremony. If you want a short aisle, run it across the width of the room instead of down its length. The proportions take both. Exposed brick, hardwood floors, clean industrial lines: the shell is original to a building that has stood on Lafayette Street since the nineteenth century, and it does a good deal of the work before you hang anything on it.
Golden Hour: Cocktails on the Roof

Evening: Dinner, Speeches and the Last Song
In-house AV covers ceremony sound, speeches and music. Florals, lighting, draping and personalized signage all work against the room. So does restraint. The result can read modern and stripped back, or elegant and layered. Our production partners handle the bigger builds, and large installs come up through their own freight elevator.

Sizing the Room
Our own chefs write the menu for each event, and the bar sits with the same team, so one conversation covers the food and the drinks. The beverage program covers a full bar, wine, and a signature cocktail or two if you want the offering to say something about the couple. Browse the culinary and beverage programs.

The Neighborhood After the Reception
NoHo is a good address for a wedding in New York City and a better one for the photos. Astor Place and Bleecker Street put you on the 6, and Broadway-Lafayette adds the B, D, F and M, all a few minutes walk away. Guests coming from Brooklyn, Long Island or out of town have a straightforward trip, and there is a hotel within a short ride of the location. SoHo, Greenwich Village and Union Square are close for first-look photos and for the after-party, and the neighborhood stays open long after a Midtown ballroom has emptied out.
