Is there anything more classically beautiful than a High Line Hotel wedding?
If you are getting married in New York, chances are you have thought long and hard about the location of your wedding. Not just the wedding venue itself, but the proximity of that venue to hotel and interesting locations for your out-of-town guests.
So many brides and grooms that get married in New York City have guests that come from out of town. While I know that is not unique to New York specifically, I find that many of my New York wedding clients think long and hard about their venue because they want to choose a location that will be especially spectacular for any guests who might be coming to New York for the first time.
Along with considering the venue, thinking about the hotel block, and coming up with things for out-of-town guests to do while they are in the city, brides and grooms who are getting married in New York often consider the neighborhood that their wedding is taking place. They want to make sure that this neighborhood is easy to get to, safe for their guests, and has a lot to do while the guests are enjoying their non-wedding time.
The High Line Hotel is located right in the center of the Chelsea gallery district. In my opinion, this is one of the most beautiful locations of New York - if not the most beautiful. Whether you are a native New Yorker, or just in town for a wedding, you could not ask for a more picturesque and centrally located spot.
The High Line Hotel is right next the High Line, which is an absolutely fantastic place to walk around and see the city. It is also super close to the West Side Highway for any guests who might be commuting in on the day of the wedding itself.
It can often be difficult to find a location large enough to host a wedding in New York City. That would never be a problem at the High Line Hotel! The High Line Hotel has over 8000 square feet of event space, which is extraordinary in a city known for tiny venues!

Whether you are having a theater style or banquet style reception, you can invite over 200 of your nearest and dearest family and friends to celebrate with you in this spectacular room.
I absolutely love the history behind this magnificent Refectory. The the High Line Hotel used to be the General Theological Seminary, founded way back in 1817. Before that, it was an apple orchard. The dormitories of this old campus are what now comprise the High Line Hotel.
The Gothic architecture of this incredible room truly has to be seen to be believed. The beamed and vaulted ceiling arches beautifully over the enormous space. The large windows allow an abundance of natural light cascade through the room. I absolutely love how the architecture stays true to its old world group, while allowing a modern sensibility to this huge space.
