Portlock Galleries at SoNo

(I am an employee of the gallery so my review isn’t very unbiased.) Given our budget and personal history with the building (I met my husband here, my Mother-in-law attended school at the building) it was a natural choice for us to have both the wedding and reception here. It did mean that we had to keep the guest list small but doing so enabled us to spend a lot more on the food than we would have otherwise been able to do as well as to add a lot of personal touches. The building was easily accessible for my husband’s elderly grandparents and in a convenient location for all our guests. The flexibility we had to set up the building was great too. We used one gallery for a ceremony site then converted it for dancing at the conclusion of the ceremony. The other gallery was for eating/reception and the conference room was where we placed all the food. We ordered a separate bar for the lobby area and really transformed the building. It was gorgeous.
