Looking to get married in NYC? Then don’t you dare overlook Staten Island. Owing to the coastal real estate, spectacular views of the Manhattan skyline, and increased elbow room, there are tons of great places to get married in the city’s least populated borough. From elegant ballrooms to seaside ceremonies, we’ve gathered up the best of Staten Island wedding venues.
Grand Oaks Country Club
Have too many friends and family for your own good? The Grand Oaks Country Club might be the wedding venue for you. In addition to serving up beautiful grounds and experienced service, the Country Club can accommodate up to 1,500 guests for your reception. Create your perfect wedding by combining one of their several wedding packages with a choice of their indoor and outdoor venues.
Capacity: 1,500
Bonus: Although the grounds are beautiful in any season, the grand oak trees surrounding the property look especially fantastic in the fall.

Located within the Hilton Garden Inn at the center of Staten Island, Nicotra’s Ballroom is a well-established New York City wedding venue.

The Historic Old Bermuda Inn
Originally a parsonage for St. Luke’s Church, the Historic Old Bermuda Inn has been restored to an elegant Victorian bed and breakfast and event venue.
