I have never seen employees as disgraceful as those who run this establishment. I attended a…read morebirthday party which had an approved dj until midnight and at around 10pm the man who works this westwood post DRUNKENLY freaked out at those who were throwing the party (my friend, her sister and her mother- all extremely respectful women) they tried to keep calm and explain to him that they had paid a lot of money for the hall and dj until midnight but he continued to get aggressive and screamed in their faces to a point where they felt unsafe. It was an extremely bad situation. Please do not waste your money or time planning a party here. They take your money and say ok to all of your requests to get you there so that you have to pay the final fees. It's deplorable and I am sad that it is part of beautiful Westwood.

Do not waste your time or money! I'd give this negative stars if I could. After my friend was…read morepromised that she could host her bday party WITH A DJ until at least midnight, some rude and unprofessional man told her the music was too loud and essentially asked her to shut the party down. He began verbally attacking both her and her sister, BOTH WOMEN. After several back and forth "discussions", the party still went on but my friend's bday was ruined. I am disgusted with this place's lack of professionalism, inability to keep their word, and their disgraceful choice of employees. How are you complaining about noise when your establishment is meant to hold parties?! Save yourself from unwanted stress and choose a different location!

I went to a wedding here a few weekends ago and it was hands down one of the most impressive…read morereceptions I've ever attended! The venue is beautiful adorned with ornate crown moldings, glistening marble floors and large crystal chandeliers. It is a large facility with multiple different rooms. The couple we were celebrating got married in a grand ballroom with a large staircase. The staff was friendly and accommodating. After the ceremony, we segued to cocktail hour across the hall. There were several bars for guests to choose from, however the drinks were very weak (I tipped my bartender with each drink I ordered). The cocktail hour was INSANE with every single hor'dovour more spectacular than the next, including: a sushi bar, pasta station, several charcuterie boards/antipastos, raw bar, etc. There was even a leaning Tower of Pisa made from Parmesan reggiano cheese. You could have made a meal out of all of the options! The bride told me after the fact that this was an option for the reception.... WOW. The staff were very attentive, sweet and friendly. The ballroom for the reception was massive with multiple neatly set tables, a wide dance floor and high ceilings. We had a three course meal that was delicious, warm and timely! For dessert there was a Viennese table with every single cake or "sweet treat" that you could fathom. I highly recommend this venue if you are planning on having a large ceremony. This may seem like a small detail for some people... but the bathrooms were stocked with many feminine hygiene/beauty products which was a plus and there were many beautiful places to take pictures with friends/partners!

We scheduled our wedding reception here and despite a signed $3200 contract they reneged and…read morecancelled on us, claiming they double-booked and the other party booked first. This organization is guilty of breaching our contract. Despite deposits on wedding invitations, parking lot, and the like, we now have to find a new venue 5 months before our wedding. The ineptitude and lack of remorse, as well as dodging our calls to make this right is incredibly unprofessional and we will not be working with this organization in Ridgewood ever again. I would not recommend this organization to schedule an event. Be wary.

The Woman's Club is such a charming and beautiful place! i came here for a wedding and felt like it…read morecould have been in someone's home, but nicer and with a more historical feel. While the building looks small, it has ample room inside for mingling, dancing, having a ceremony, and even enjoying a cocktail (or two). In addition, the front garden is lovely for taking pictures and there's a lower floor that's nice to lounge in. Overall, i'd recommend this place for cute and intimate gatherings. *Tip: Finding parking is difficult, but we were directed to park about a block away beside a church. There also appears to be limited street parking on neighboring streets.
