About this venue

501 Union is a space of subtle distinction and quiet refinement. The building dates back to 1916 and once served as a classic car restoration shop. It was transformed into a private events venue in 2013 and now provides a unique backdrop for Brooklyn's most stylish weddings. Paired with our exceptional service, guests can enjoy three distinct spaces within the venue: a covered atrium, an elegant cocktail lounge, and a light-filled reception hall. Locally-sourced design elements include Modo chandeliers by Jason Miller, customized Flavor Paper wallpaper, and a vaulted skylight that runs the length of the main gathering space reflect the best of old and new Brooklyn: industrial chic with a touch of modern glamour.

    AND BOOK 501 UNION RIGHT NOW!!! 501 Union was the perfect venue for our wedding. We absolutely fell in love with the space; it's beautiful even without any decorations. The package was comprehensive and way better than a lot of other venues we looked at. The value you get for this space is amazing. From the moment we first reached out, the team's communication was prompt, enthusiastic, and warm. Our venue coordinator changed during the process but the transition to our new coordinator was completely smooth and nothing was lost. Andrea and the staff were so on top of everything; they went above and beyond to ensure the space was gorgeous, clean, and perfectly set up. We were blown away by the space the day of and how accommodating the team was with all of our requests. They seriously could not have made the space any more inviting and welcoming. We are SO grateful to 501 Union for helping make our wedding day everything we dreamed of. Thank you!!!!!

    501 Union is an incredible wedding venue! We got married there in January 2025 and had an all around wonderful experience. Starting with the open house events they host (which we would highly recommend as they partner with great vendors who you may end up wanting to hire for your own event) all the way to the wedding day, the team at 501 Union supported us through every step of the journey! They were very accommodating and worked in partnership with us to create the wedding of our dreams within a budget we could manage. Our vision was one of simple elegance and the space at 501 Union helped us achieve just that, with the modern and classic design embellished with gold accents and large spaces. We would also highly recommend working with 501 Union’s in house event planning team, STARLING NYC (see review on Google). Overall, we highly recommend hosting your wedding or next big event at 501 Union! We truly felt that it was a hidden gem right in the middle of an easily accessible and vibrant neighborhood in Brooklyn!

  • Beautiful venue that is great to work with!

    501 Union was the perfect choice for us! The space is beautiful on its own and is a great canvas for adding your personal touches. We loved that there were different spaces for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception on site, making it super easy for us and our guests. Andrea and the staff at 501 Union were great to work with! It was so easy to schedule a tour when we were looking at venues and they gave us so much helpful information that made the choice an easy one. As the planning went on, Andrea was helpful in answering questions as they came up and working with us to ensure the day was perfect! Definitely recommend!

    We recently hosted our wedding at 501 Union in June 2024. The staff at 501 Union were exceptional from start to finish. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care for our wedding day made everything run smoothly. Our event manager, Abby, was always available to answer questions and provided so much guidance throughout the planning process. She was fantastic! We couldn’t be happier with our decision to host our wedding here and would highly recommend 501 Union to any couple looking for a venue that will make their wedding day magical.
