Meena Lee, a luxury wedding planner, shares her expertise on choosing a wedding venue in NYC. Lee estimates she has been involved in 1,000 nuptials, and her favorite venue is the 620 Loft & Garden, which offers an intimate garden and view of St. Patrick’s Cathedral. When selecting a venue, Lee recommends deciding on guest count and budget first, then booking at least one year in advance. She also advises considering the venue’s staff, location, and backup plans for unexpected weather or other events.
