When considering Manhattan wedding venues, many options come to mind. There are gloriously appointed ballrooms, spacious hotels, and charming catering halls. There are remodeled warehouses, penthouses, and private clubs.
Then there are the icons, the best-known wedding venues. Of those iconic Manhattan wedding locations, Gotham Hall looms large.
Gotham Hall began as the Greenwich Savings Bank headquarters around 1923. It’s now one of Manhattan’s best wedding venues, and it only takes a quick look inside Gotham Hall’s impressive interior to see why.
The granite walls and the marble floors combine with an enormous domed ceiling to create an extraordinary event space unlike and other wedding venue in Manhattan. The second your wedding guests walk through the door there is an incredible "wow" factor like no other.
Gotham Hall is also quite popular on wedding review sites such as Wedding Wire and the Knot. Past clients have called the event space "spectacular" and "superb" as well as "jaw-dropping!" It’s easy to see why. The service is unparalleled, the staff incredibly kind and helpful, and the entire venue runs events with brilliant precision.
Most wedding couples who are having all (or part) of their day at Gotham Hall want to know where we can take pictures nearby the venue. After all, being situated right in Herald Square and across from Macy's doesn't seem like initially the best location for wedding day portraits! (Especially not if you want to be alone and not surrounded by tourists!)
I love helping clients figure out where to take their pictures. It's why I have a page on my website dedicated entirely to places to take wedding pictures in NYC. Where we can go for your portraits depends on a lot of factors, including:
