I have been an officiant at two weddings at the City Reliquary. It is one of the greatest, most sincere, and loving places in Brooklyn to be wed. They offer a unique experience an the ability to customize your wedding in ways that larger, more costly venues aren't able to.
I highly reccommend this as a venue to be married at or to host any private party with guest lists ranging from 50-150 people.

The City Reliquary is the perfect place to have a unique, individual, off-beat wedding. It is well suited for DIY-ers and is a dream for those who would like to tailor the event to their own taste, style and budget. The space itself is a joy for both out-of-towners and native New Yorkers.

We had such a special wedding at the City Reliquary, it was a perfect venue to suit our eclectic tastes and the central Williamsburg location made it easy to organise everything for our guests. It also suited our pretty limited budget, which we allowed us to splash out more on catering and entertainment. The team there helped us along the way with providing some of their vendor contacts and working with ours, and on the night with a staff to make sure everything went smoothly. All our guests complimented the hip choice of venue and enjoyed checking out the museum.
*We spent a little extra to access the venue for a couple of hours the day before and the day of for some more set up time*
