    The Aurora Gallery - First dance

    Astoria

    The Aurora Gallery is an event coordination company, NOT a specific venue; they work with multiple…read morevenues. This review is of how this event coordinator organized our wedding ceremony and reception this September, at a venue called T Studio in Astoria (you can see amy review of that venue separately). Things they organized well: * For the most part the package is reasonably priced and a lot of the things are included (e.g. DJ, photographer, staff, décor) etc. However, as we've learned later (see below), this organizer takes on more than they can logistically handle and it would have been much better if we actually organized some of these elements ourselves. * The food -the restaurant this coordinator ordered catering from was very good. * The décor was in line with what I wanted, BUT...see the list of "buts" below... Things they organized.... NOT so well: * There were multiple warning signs early on that this wedding coordinator is not very detail-oriented. Communicating with her was hard--she took a long time to reply to emails and things were disappearing in the thread. For example, she sent us our wedding contract three times, each time with errors in it. * They set up very late so there's no chance to check everything--and that's too bad. For one: THEY MESSED UP THE TABLE SEATING. I provided a correct seating chart way in advance and we only had 8 tables (!). And somehow they couldn't get that right and put the same guests at two tables, which completely messed up the whole arrangement and resulted in two of our guests actually eating dinner in a back room next to garbage cans (!) because they wanted to sit together. To make it worse, the coordinator was trying to deny it in a conversation with me later. * Multiple things that were part of our package were missing during the event, including a coffee station and a water station. I myself (as bride) had to run to the bar every time I wanted a glass of water, and towards the end of the event the guests informed me that there is no coffee! Which was in our package! They refunded us for the cost of the missing items ($125! Out of ~$14K), but well, we only had one wedding. * The bar RAN OUT OF WINE before the event ended. Already the bar under this company closes 30mins before the end of the event, and all we had on offer for wine was house red and house white. * The ceremony took place on the terrace: there was a loud air conditioning unit that practically drowned out our vows. * I wanted to add a champagne reception to our package, and at the beginning I wanted to manage it myself, but our wedding coordinator offered to take care of it for an extra charge. BIG MISTAKE. They did not get enough champagne and were serving glasses with embarrassingly tiny amounts of champagne at some point. I would have bought the bottles myself had I known in advance! * In general, the staff assistance was non-existent. My parents and multiple guests reported that the staff offered no guidance, the guests were confused as to where they were supposed to go or what to do. * We paid for "passed hors d'oevres " as part of our package, which were supposed to be distributed before the ceremony. My parents reported that a waiter showed up 2-3 times out on the terrace with a small plate of hors d'oevres which lasted for just a few people. * The décor was also included in our package including tables and altar décor. The wedding coordinator did provide a vision board and we discussed getting specific things, like fairy lights and lighting up the aisle with candles/lampions. There were neither. The coordinator said she made a budget decision to not include those -and did not inform me about it! But based on all the other fails my guess is that she simply forgot. The part that particularly irked me was: I found a Love-shaped balloon on Amazon and offered to buy it and bring it for decoration, but the wedding coordinator said she'll take care of it. You've guessed it...there was no balloon. I could have easily done that myself. * My general impression is: when you're planning a wedding, you can't possibly think of every single thing as the bride. That is why you hire a wedding organizer to take off some of the load (and pay them money for it!). Foresight and support was completely lacking from this vendor. I had to think of everything myself and spell everything out, and on occasion even the instructions I gave them were not executed correctly. From things I didn't spell out but I had hope that they will interpret them, here's one example: we provided little bottles of bubbles for guests to use during the ceremony. The event coordinator distributed the bottles on chairs for the ceremony, but provided no instructions to the guests to use them. Result: there were no bubbles during the ceremony or at any point. You just expect that an experienced wedding coordinator would know to "manage" the crowd and give out instructions. Needless to say, I cannot recommend this vendor.

    This review is so overdue!…read more We had our reception here last October. The space is huge and you are really able to transform it however you'd like although the managers do help you with some standard seating layouts. We had 120 guests and the size was just right. We had plenty of room for seating buffet tables and dance floor. They even provide a bartender for you to use that night. I'll post some pictures which tell more than I can in the writeup but it's definitely worth 5 stars, and the main reason was John. When crap went wrong he calmed us down. Took us drinks and food in the back and to our table. Reminded us to relax and enjoy. Our DJ which we brought on our own was late and I started to get worked up but John cooled me down. He also helped us plan and figure out a lot of things as we had not a clue in the world what we were doing. He made it worth every penny. They also have many vendors to recommend should you need them. We used theirs for the tables and chairs and also the waitstaff. The prices were reasonable compared to other vendors and trust me, we checked. If you're looking to do a wedding on a budget and paying for yourself, you should use the Aurora Gallery.

This is a cute tapas bar in Astoria w/chill service - you aren't rushed at all. They have a heated outdoor space but naaahhhh...it's too cold (I was shocked folks still venture to eat outside - they were setting up for an outdoor seating that was due to arrive) Y'all, I fcked up! If you pay with cash, it's 3.5% off however, b/c it was still Happy hour (M-F! Until 7PM )...still felt like a win... But now for the food and dranks..yous already know, it's probably not in order... Barrel aged Remington...(kinda like an elevated Old Fashioned) Mai Tai PA (NOT your traditional Mai Thai) Bar Dalia Punch (kinda like a strong + pretty RunPunch) Beef empanda Yuca fries (I've never been a fan BUT these were GOOD) Crispy Brussel sprouts (I am a sucka for sprouts so obviously, I HAD to get it) Calamari (this wasn't the best but then again, didn't eat it fast enough) Honey Sriracha Chicken Bites (call me a punk but this was spppiiicccccyyy even if it was tasty) Glad that I was able to go back to 'basics' w/a lil flaiiiirrrr

    I came here during happy hour on Thursday and got a few items. The music wasn't too loud for a bar…read moreand was able to have a private conversation. The cash discount basically takes out the cents for most items. I got the calamari (crispy) and Brussel sprouts (nicely charred, a little on the salty side) which were both good.

The customer service is pleasant and I didn't get any unpleasant surprises at check-in. Actually, check-in was pretty smooth. I've stayed here twice. The first time, I got a balcony room with a nice view of Manhattan. But as it's the middle of a miserable winter, I couldn't care less about a balcony. My view was not cute, but I didn't really care. The room was spacious and had a warm bed. There's a simple but effective fitness center in the basement. It has a treadmill, elliptical, free weights, as well as other stuff. If you're looking to get a workout while away from home, you can put in some decent work here. However, there is definitely some room for improvement. The room does not include a microwave, a fridge, dresser, night stand, closet, nor an iron/ironing board. You can borrow an iron + board by contacting the front desk. Since there's no fridge nor microwave, you pretty much have to order out for each meal. All in all, I enjoyed my stay. But there's is definitely room for improvement.

The bathroom was spacious. The bed was comfortable. My only complaint was that there was no furniture on the balcony. But that's literally the only thing. They brought me up a mini fridge on my request. The café downstairs was super convenient and the front desk is manned by wonderful people who are always willing to answer questions and help you.
