I really want to give a shout-out to the fabulous Ritz-Carlton Battery Park, in lower Manhattan. This property is certainly gorgeous, with views of the Hudson and Lady Liberty. But beyond that, I am consistently blown away by their impeccable service. It really is a great spot for a fabulous and quintessential New York gay wedding, large or small.
The Ritz first reached out to me last summer about training their catering staff to be sensitive to the unique needs of same-sex couples. Shortly afterwards, they let the BBC in to interview me at Rise (their 14th floor event space with amazing views - picture below). After the BBC interview, their catering staff began enrolling in our Gay Wedding Institute course. To date, three of their staff have received the GWI certification and are really excited, proud (and highly educated) advocates for their LGBT parents. Jocelyn, Melissa and Laura will all take fabulous care of you.
Now, this fall, the Ritz Battery Park and 14 Stories will be working together on our first wedding – that of two grooms who live in Atlanta and Brooklyn. We are thrilled with this partnership and even more thrilled to feel so very good about referring a property to our clients.
Check out this beautiful place!
PS - I don't get paid for any endorsements! This comes from the heart!
