The Brooklyn Historical Society Museum and Library

Choose the Brooklyn Historical Society Museum for your smaller, intimate wedding and experience a trip back through time, highlighting the special events of this borough. The museum is located at 128 Pierrepont St, Brooklyn, NY 11201 (phone: 718-222-4111). Sweeping views and soaring columns greet you as you enter the old building, approaching the historic Great Hall event venue. Smooth floors, ideal for danging the night away, cover the flexible event space, with room for up to to 200 guests.

The venue itself is a national historic landmark, with burnished wood trim and lovely stained glass windows that make a gorgeous backdrop for unique wedding photos. It's located in the heart of historic Brooklyn Heights steps from the Brooklyn Promenade, a building constructed in 1881 on Pierrepont Street. The event center does not offer on-site catering; instead, they have a list of preferred vendors that have a reputation for delicious food and drinks, polished service, and for being responsible and on-time.

As you prepare for your event, you may experience stress that most brides do. Tired skin and dehydration are common, and can make you feel tired and look drawn. Pamper yourself and rejuvenate with an indulgent micronutrient facial from Joanna Vargas Day Spa in Manhattan. The professional staff is certified to gently exfoliate your skin, using rich nutrient blends to penetrate deep into your tissue and restore your skin's elasticity and glow. Choose to book a package with your bridal party as a fun girls' afternoon or treat yourself to full body experience, from oxygen facial to full-body microdermabrasion, leaving your skin touchably, satiny smooth for your wedding night.
