Celebrate Your Perfect Day:  Multicultural Weddings at

The Glasshouse

Here comes your big day—and there’s only one place to spend it.


At The Glasshouse, we believe every wedding should be as unique as the love story it celebrates. With a venue that transforms into any setting your heart desires, we’ve hosted some truly spectacular weddings that reflect a wide range of traditions and personal styles.


From lavish cultural celebrations to intimate non-religious ceremonies, The Glasshouse is the perfect backdrop where any type of wedding can unfold beautifully.


Let’s take a look at three distinct weddings we’ve hosted, showing just how versatile our venue really is.


Indian Wedding for 400 Guests

For this stunning Indian wedding, The Glasshouse became a vibrant celebration of culture and tradition. With 400 guests in attendance, the event required a large space to handle both the ceremony and reception without feeling cramped.


One of the most unique features of the day was the Baraat, a groom’s procession full of energy, music, and joy, which we could accommodate effortlessly with our expansive indoor and outdoor spaces.


When it comes to catering, The Glasshouse offers flexibility, unlike many other venues in NYC. We don’t have an exclusive caterer, which allowed the couple to bring in a caterer specializing in Indian cuisine, creating a truly authentic experience for their guests.


The event was a spectacular mix of tradition, love, and celebration, leaving the couple and their guests in awe of the space. As one family member shared:

“I had the opportunity to catch up with both the families over the weekend and they both shared with me how thrilled they were with all aspects of the wedding. Thank you all for making it happen. I look forward to working with all of you again in the near future.”

Wedding for 700 Guests

A wedding for 700 guests? No problem at The Glasshouse!


This Orthodox Jewish wedding was one of the largest events we’ve hosted, requiring separate spaces for the Bedeken (the veiling of the bride) and Tisch (the groom’s table). With the flexibility of our venue layout, we were able to create intimate settings for these important cultural moments while still having plenty of room for a large reception afterward.


Our open catering policy was a major draw for this couple as well, with the option to use a kosher caterer from our preferred vendor list or bring in their own trusted vendor.


The day was filled with love, tradition, and incredible food, making it a truly memorable celebration. As one guest reflected:

“Please know how much we appreciate all the effort from everyone to make our wedding event beyond special and a most memorable wedding! We felt supported all along the way and I know everyone did their absolute best to ensure a most professional production.”


Non-Religious Wedding for 200 Guests

Not every wedding at The Glasshouse is steeped in religious or cultural traditions. We also specialize in elegant, non-religious ceremonies that are all about the couple and their personal style.


One recent wedding had 200 guests and featured a ceremony on-site, making it a convenient and intimate setting for the couple and their loved ones.


The couple wanted a chic, minimalist atmosphere, and our partial venue rental allowed them to design a custom space that suited their vision without feeling overwhelming.


The Glasshouse’s sleek, modern architecture and breathtaking skyline views served as the perfect backdrop for their celebration, and our event team made sure every detail was perfect. As the bride’s parents shared:

“I just wanted to drop a note of thanks to all of you for a fantastic rehearsal dinner/welcome reception for our daughter’s wedding. Everything was executed with perfection! Many guests were in NYC for the first time and were amazed by everything that evening! Thanks so much for helping to add to the magic of the whole weekend.”
