Ozlem and her fabulous staff went above and beyond with planning, assisting, and creating the most incredible space for my daughter’s Surprise Bridal Shower! This space is spectacular with a rustic yet elegant feel in the heart of SoHo. Technology for featured music and film were in place, along with the assistance of her tech specialist. The staff helped us enormously with the set up as I was just owing out of the hospital and cancelling the shower was never an option! Ozlem stepped in as if she had known me for years and I will never forget her enthusiasm, support, and genuine kindness. I’m delighted to call her my fiend now! My daughter and her fiancé are delighted to be able to refer customers and clients to this wonderful space in the near future! Bravo, Ozlem!!

About New York

New York – it’s the City that Never Sleeps; the Big Apple! New York is a place where you can get a bagel at 3 A.M. or a delicious slice of pizza at 9 A.M. It is a place of class and couture; certainly, it is the perfect place for a cocktail party!

New York is one of the most populous places in the United States. It’s best to get around via public transportation or a private car service. It’s always crowded in New York, so plan ahead when being on time is necessary. Walking is a major form of transportation here, so always have a pair of comfortable shoes when traveling to the Big Apple.

New York is made up of five boroughs. Each is a place with its own culture. Be prepared to eat some of the most creative and diverse culinary dishes when here. You’ll easily find dishes with international inspiration.

Cocktail Party Options in New York

A cocktail party venue in New York will need things like great food and decor. Depending on the venue and theme, you may need other items as well.

  • Catering
    When hosting a cocktail party, one of the most important ingredients for a successful event is food. You may wish to offer simple appetizers or provide a full meal. No matter what type of food you wish to serve, New York is home to a wealth of catering companies that offer full-service. Not only will they cook and deliver delicious cuisine, but they’ll also handle the bar and service at your cocktail party.

  • Private Car Service
    Although many visitors to the city take advantage of public transportation, when hosting an event, it is important to make sure all your VIPs arrive in a timely manner. This is where hiring a private car service can be handy. Most private car services will not only offer airport pick-up service, but they will be available for the night of your party.

  • Event Planners
    Because so many come to New York to host an event, the city is home to many reputable event planners who know how to plan a fantastic party! These individuals will happily not only plan every detail of the party, but most established event planning professionals in NYC have long-term relationships with vendors across the Big Apple. These event planners will get the best food, decor, and more for your upcoming cocktail party.

Cocktail Party Companies in New York

You’ll want to book a fabulous cocktail party venue. And when you do, call on local companies to make the space welcoming and spectacular at the same time.

  • Cocktail Caterers
    Not only is Cocktail Caterers an established catering company, but they also specialize in food design! If you’re looking for the perfect company to produce tasty and eye-popping food, look no further than Cocktail Caterers. Kurt Kretzschmar and Michael Watts opened the company in 2007 and take care to buy local and support area businesses as they create.

  • Precision Cars NYC
    Getting your VIPs to the party and safely back to their accommodations requires the assistance of a private car service. Precision Cars NYC is a business with nearly two decades of experience. All drivers are committed to professionalism and safety. Airport pick-up and drop-off are also available.

Pros and Cons of Cocktail Parties in New York

Have you narrowed down the choices for the perfect New York cocktail party venue? Take a quick look at the pros and cons as you finalize the decision.

Advantages

  • Food choices
    The culture of NYC is influenced by so many influences from traditional Italian dishes to Middle Eastern fare to Hispanic cuisine. When booking a cocktail party venue in New York City, you’ll have a wealth of talented chefs from which to choose the perfect victuals for your soiree.

  • Always something to do
    While event planners organize your event, you’ll be free to visit some of the amazing places only in New York City. Of course, if there’s something your party needs last minute, in New York, you’re more likely to find a business open to fill that particular need.

  • Great place for networking
    If your cocktail party is also a bit of a business opportunity, hosting the event in New York is a smart business move. Many successful businesses in a wide variety of fields (tech, finance, the arts) call NYC home. A cocktail party in the Big Apple is a great way to meet some up and coming - or established - entrepreneurs.

Disadvantages

  • An uptick in crime
    Most of the Big Apple is safe. Like all major cities, there are “pockets” where crime is a constant worry; those living in NYC will also tell you to simply make smart decisions (don’t walk in Central Park alone after dark). While it’s unlikely you’ll experience any crime during your stay in the Big Apple, it pays to be smart and watch one’s surroundings at all times.

  • NYC is very crowded
    The Big Apple is home to over 8 million people, so you can always expect crowds wherever you go. There’s even an etiquette to using sidewalks in the City; stay on the right – just as you would if driving a car. Expect delays when using public transportation, even taxis. Always plan to leave early in order to make events on time.

  • Traffic is always congested
    Some are tempted to rent a car while in the Big Apple. However, traffic is always congested in the city, and getting around in an unfamiliar area can be hectic at best. A private car service with experienced drivers is a much better way to navigate the city.

Famous Locations in New York City

  • Times Square
    Times Square is the home to the NYE annual bash and the dropping of the ball to ring in the new year. It is also home to NBC studios, as well as great shopping opportunities. Times Square is a place to visit and take memorable pictures.

  • The Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island
    The Statue of Liberty was a gift from our ally France; those coming into Ellis Island were always greeted by Lady Liberty as they neared a New World. One can climb the stairs inside the statue for some awesome views of the city; Ellis Island is open to tourists.

  • Wall Street
    Wall Street is more than just a place where the stock market is housed; it’s a part of the greater financial district of the Big Apple. Most of the fiduciary enterprises are located on Wall Street.
