Milk & Roses

“A little expensive but worth it for the backyard ambience”

“Hear me out. I don't think this crowd thinks this way but every time I tell someone we had ours at a restaurant folks outside of NYC seem to generally forget that hosting a wedding isn't limited to church, barn, or city hall. Personally, I've never been to a wedding where I actually remember the food or the meal. I love food, I'm just much too amped up on love and champagne and dancing, so when it was my turn I wanted to outsource what I could to someone that knew what they were doing. We did the entire thing at Milk & Roses in Brooklyn. It minimized any traveling between ceremony and reception locations and they could take care of all the drinks and food so we could just pay them and move on with our life. It also allowed us to take pictures around the area relatively quickly and easily so we had more time to party. They have a beautiful garden area where we had the entire ceremony and then they flipped it into the reception. It was smooth as hell. We met with them twice to get clarity on run of events, layout, a loose plan b for rain, and confirm whether we wanted buffet style or served. It kind of makes it a one and done thing.”
