The Pierre, A Taj Hotel, is a symbol of enduring romance and historical grandeur. Since the glamorous 1930s, it has been a cornerstone of New York's high society. The Pierre isn't just a building; it's a living piece of New York's history. Walking through its halls is like stepping back in time.

The Pierre is one of a kind. The venue itself is a balance of old and new, all of which comes together to create the perfect, most magical space. - Kay & Alex.

The Pierre's variety of event spaces offers a perfect setting for every part of your wedding day. Each room in The Pierre has its own story and character. "The Cotillion room located along Central Park, is utilized for the ceremony. The Regency and Pre-Function rooms, we use for the cocktail hour, and the Grand Ballroom is for the reception."

The moment we walked into The Pierre, it truly took our breath away. The exquisite details of the rotunda made it one of the most incredible rooms we had ever seen. - Kelly & Rami.

Transitioning from one space to another, guests are continuously enveloped in an atmosphere of luxury and romance. These spaces are not just venues; they're canvases on which couples can paint their dream weddings. "From your ceremony in the beloved Cotillion Room overlooking Central Park to cocktails in the Garden Foyer to dinner and dancing in the iconic Grand Ballroom, your Pierre wedding moves seamlessly from one exquisite space to the next."

With the help of our talented planner, florist, design team, and entertainers, the space was transformed and elevated into something truly unforgettable. Our ceremony felt like a scene out of a movie — with golden mirrored floors, flickering candles, and lush florals perfectly complementing our love. The reception was equally magical, with unforgettable touches: delicate flowers and crystals cascading from the ceiling, a stunning monogrammed dance floor, and the most breathtaking floral centerpieces we could have imagined. - Kelly & Rami.
