The Lambs Inc. (the revised name) moved into a new clubhouse recently which is 3 or 4 rooms at 1674…read moreBroadway. It was decorated nicely with paintings and rare editions of books contained in a small library used also as a conference room. I was there for a Meet and Greet" Cinco Del Mayo night to consider becoming a member. The members were friendly. However, there was no restaurant on the premises. They do cater some of their events up to about 42 people. I was told you can bring your own food in if you desire to. Also, they had a beautiful bar but no liquor license or bartender. The policy was bring your own bottle and use the glassware provided and be responsible for washing whatever used which I feel creates unsanitary conditions in this day and age of viruses going around. Also, there was no check room and attendant to secure your coat (in cool and inclement weather) or valuables. There wasn't any staff present only the members. If accepted as a member after filing an application and going through a formal interview your spouse wasn't able to use your benefits. He or she would be treated as an ordinary guest. The dues are reasonable and there is an initiation fee. There were only a few young members there and mostly single senior citizens filled the rooms. I did not see any couples present. 2 small phone booths were provided to use your phone so the other members would not be disturbed. There is a small area with a beautiful pool table there for members to shoot. There is no receptionist or security upon entrance. A member would have a fob or phone app to gain entrance into the building and take the elevator to the third floor. There are weekly events scheduled, free and paid. I went for the membership interview and was denied membership. Maybe it was because I spoke my mind and asked some concerning questions since I have been a member of 2 other social clubs that offered much more to their members and their partners.

I just had my DREAM WEDDING here. It was like a fairy tale. I would give it 10 stars if I could!…read more When I first started wedding planning, I agonized, BOY did I agonize over how to have a cost effective wedding in New York. My now husband and I are in our early/mid 30's and were paying for much of it ourselves with help from our moms. So while we had plenty of help, we did not have unlimited resources. So many reviews of NYC wedding venues say, "Oh, I had my fantasy wedding here!" Of course you did. We can all have the Manhattan wedding of our dreams with hundreds of thousands of dollars. Anyways, there are many blogs about having a New York wedding on a budget. Have your wedding in the park and then go to a nice alcohol free brunch! Have a potluck in the park! Just bring cute umbrellas and galoshes if it rains, don't worry, the pictures will be SOOO CUTE! Have a wedding at the courthouse and then hire a food truck to feed all your friends, yum and sure to impress hipsters everywhere. I know, have it on a random Wednesday afternoon! I poured through countless blogs and articles about having a wedding in Manhattan on a budget....And I was just like....no. First of all, my husband and I could not be further from "shabby chic." A farm or outdoor wedding with mason jars etc etc was just not going to work for us. (Not that that is usually any cheaper, don't be fooled!) I wanted the REAL DEAL. An aisle to walk down. A place where I could have live classical music during the ceremony. Saturday night. Dinner. Dancing. A place where I didn't need a rain plan. THE WHOLE KIT AND KABOODLE. Of course, my now husband would have been totally cool with just going to the courthouse and calling it a day, but while I am no bridezilla, I was having none of that. Everywhere I turned (looking online and making inquiries etc), the prices were out of our budget, and the venue often worked with exclusive vendors, locking you in to whatever they charged. I discovered Landmark on the Park while perusing the New York Wedding Guide "Splurge vs. Save" feature on venues. The Angel Orensanz Foundation was the "splurge", Landmark being the "save". A church wedding without ACTUALLY getting married in a church? SIGN ME UP. For about five thousand dollars, I looked no further. Seriously, I called, met Darius, and gave them our deposit right then and there. I did not shop around or visit any other place. IT IS GORGEOUS! And I mean come on-the whole church but not a church thing was perfect for a non practicing catholic bride and non practicing jewish groom getting married by their gay presbyterian aunt .They will even cover the Jesus washing feet mural and Tiffany alter for you. I could have an aisle to walk down and a beautiful acoustic for live classical music, AND have the reception and ceremony be in the same place. Yes please! They run a tight ship-they pipe and drape off the main part of the cathedral where the tables are for the reception, and the ceremony is in the front of the church. Later those chairs move to the dinner tables, and the ceremony area becomes the cocktail reception, and later the dance floor. No muss, no fuss, no big break between the ceremony and reception. Tables and piano included, no extra charge. They also include chairs but we rented smaller ballroom chairs from out caterer. Darius was a dream to work with every step of the way. Friendly, helpful, positive, pro-active. We were in such good hands and I could not be happier to have found this place. He was very responsive to all of our questions whenever we had them. While it was more work for me to have a venue that was not all inclusive, it allowed me to shop around and hire the vendors we wanted, many of whom were already dear friends, or recommended by friends. All of our friends and family kept saying they weren't expecting our wedding to be so "fancy". It truly had a grand feel to it, given the sheer size and how beautiful it looks at night with candles everywhere. And right off Central Park-it felt very much like US. Very New York, and all of our friends in the city could come without schlepping to some random midwestern suburb that neither of us visit any more. The bathrooms are a little small and not fancy-I only mention this for anyone who has a crazy mother who's going to go in there and get kooky about it. Also, you only get the venue from about 5-10 PM. People were definitely NOT ready to leave by 10, everyone was having such a great time. No big deal, I'd always rather leave people wanting more than have it get sloppy, but in hindsight I would have paid 500 extra to have the space until 11. Our wedding came in at around 30K for 100+ people smack in the middle of Manhattan, with all the fixings of a traditional wedding. And it was NICE with really and truly a high end feel to it. We have Darius and Landmark on the Park to thank and we are so grateful. It was absolutely perfect and has our highest recommendation.

Where do I begin? If you're looking for an event space, look no further. Landmark is IT…read more This was the first and last place we looked at to host our 135 person wedding. We knew from the minute we talked to Darius that planning an event here would be easy as pie. He is beyond helpful and will go out of his way to ensure your event goes off without a hitch. And he is one of the most professional vendors I have ever worked with. It's refreshing when you find someone who doesn't give you a hard time and who genuinely wants to see your event be the best it can be. Then the space itself...it's impressive, to say the least. It's beyond accommodating and spacious, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how cool and unique it was. Working with a good uplighting company can enhance it even further, but even if you can't do that, the setting is so gorgeous you won't have to worry about dressing it up too much. One of the best parts is that your rental fee includes SO MUCH. Unlike other raw spaces, which charge thousands for an empty room, Landmark saves you money in the long run by providing tables, chairs, pipe and drape, even theatrical lighting. Their staff is professional and quick. We had the ceremony and the reception in the same space, and there were no issues with turnaround time. Not to mention, the location is right across the street from Central Park! You can't ask for a better setting when it comes to wedding photos. Check out some of mine :) All in all, Landmark is truly a hidden gem that should be utilized by couples looking to add a unique flair to their wedding, without breaking the bank. I owe so much to Darius and his staff. You'll have to provide the other services (catering, DJ, etc) but knowing you've at least got the space under control is one less bit of planning stress you'll have to deal with. Feel free to DM me if you want to know more!

In fact, we loved the Pratt House so much that we planned our entire wedding, which was on September 29, 2018, around the availability of the Pratt House. We were in trustworthy and professional hands with April from the day of our tour throughout the wedding planning process to the day of our wedding. April was always just a phone call or email away to answer our questions and reassure us when we became stressed. April and the rest of the team at the Pratt House truly went above and beyond to make our wedding day a special, memorable, and unique day for ourselves and our guests. On the day of our wedding, the Pratt House looked stunning and our guests couldn't stop raving about our choice of venue. I was particularly blown away, as were our guests, of the Pratt House library as a cocktail hour space (which I highly recommend). Working with the Pratt House staff and our vendors (many of whom were recommended by the Pratt House), we were able to personalize the space to fit our travel themed wedding by adding unique floral arrangements and centerpieces and add sentimental touches to the space. We were blown away by the Pratt House, as were our guests. I cannot recommend The Harold Pratt House highly enough if you are looking for a wedding venue with personality and class, where you and your guests will feel at home.

We stopped by with no schedule to see the space and asked if Olga was there just to see if she could give us more detail. When she finally came out, she had such an attitude that we were there without scheduling an appointment. My cousin apologized about 3 times for not making an appt in advance and also said if it was a problem we could come back another time. Olga said no its ok... but brought up the fact that we didn't schedule anything over and over again (while rolling eyes and having a nasty tone in her voice). She was not informative and seemed annoyed the entire time. She made us feel uncomfortable and unwelcomed. The guest there were much nicer than she was. And we were technically in a church, how are you going to be so angry and judgmental in a CHURCH?! FYI, the professional thing to do is say you're unable to show the space (though there wasn't much to see) at that time and you're sorry for mishap but you're glad to show it to us another time and offer to schedule something! OR just suck it up and be nice. NO WAY anyone of us is spending money there.

This space is bare and ready for a designer or wedding planner to come in and work their magic. I'd high recommend hugging a professional to design and customize the space as you are only renting only the venue and have to bring in everything else (furniture, decor, food, serving staff, etc.) to go in it. The place has two bathrooms, a couple different levels with stairs, a terrace with a beautiful view of the Hudson River and a back area with a couple refrigerators and plenty of space where you can store everything that shouldn't be seen by guests. There is a spot in a corner up some stairs where you can have dejay set up or you can connect your own decide to play music through Sonos. Every window you look out of provides a spectacular view of the vast city or the water. It's on the top floor of the building in the penthouse that has a guard on the first floor and two elevators. People actually inhabit the lower floors.

From the huge windows and the over-sized patio, you can catch beautiful Hudson River sunsets and glimpses of how the well-to-do live since Bono and Nicole Kidman's buildings are just a few blocks away (trust me, I spent some time wishing I had some high-powered binoculars...) We hosted a launch event for a client here, and at first glimpse were kind of in awe of and surprised by the unique quality of the site and weren't sure it was what we wanted (since we booked it sight unseen.) We worked with the venue manager Rocky (the best,) to make it our own through A/V set ups, moving furniture and all of the visual fixins provided by our event company Events By Dano (see review,) and it really ended up being a fantastic place to work with. No stuffy ballroom, no crappy, dirty, overdone nightclub space; Ramscale provides you with something different and unique. Pros: - great space with great stories and history and a one-of-a-kind view of the Village and the Hudson - amazing management by Rocky; available for anything, ready for anything and gives the best tips on good food you can order in during your event set-up. Flexible, accommodating, laid-back and friendly but professional. - the place is completely white, so it serves as a blank canvas to bring in whatever colors you need whether for a corporate event or for a wedding or other special event. Cons: - It's a few blocks from the 2 closest subway stops and it's nearly impossible to catch a cab on the West Side Hwy following. Bottom line? Not the most convenient of places as compared to a venue in Midtown. - It can be a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for.
