Best Place to Tie the Knot: Marvimon

We’ve all been there: hot Scottish boyfriend needs a green card and you’ve always wanted a European passport; or, your waif-y girlfriend has systemic candida and could suck some serious marrow out of your SAG health insurance. All signs point to happily ever after, so you throw both caution and commitment-phobia to the wind and decide to tie the knot.

You’ve got money, you’ve got style and you’ve got a Jewish mother on your back, which means Vegas is out, and there’s a reception to plan. Where shall you do the deed?

Marvimon’s your obvious choice, and not just because it’s Eastside convenient. Built in the ’20s as an automobile showroom, the 7,000-square-foot space at the northern edge of Chinatown has since been gutted, made over and reinvented as a hip, hot, happening multiuse loft, available for parties, exhibitions and events. (It also houses its owners.) The space is gorgeous, with epically high ceilings, exposed-brick walls, elegant lighting, a massive bistro kitchen and a spacious courtyard complete with happy green grass and a dazzling view of the downtown skyline. Don’t forget the skylights and the bumpin’ sound system for your nephew’s band’s rollicking version of “Hava Nagila.” With room for 300 folks to stand and 150 to sit, there’s plenty of space for those long-forgotten cousins your mother insists upon inviting for no other reason than to gloat about how thin her daughter is.
