The story

A gilded ballroom on Central Park South

The Plaza stands at the south-east corner of Central Park, and its celebrations have been going on for well over a century. Weddings are held in two principal rooms, the Grand Ballroom and the Terrace Room, both on the upper floors of the hotel.

The Grand Ballroom is on the third floor and covers about 4,800 square feet. It takes up to 500 guests at a seated dinner, or up to 1,000 for a standing reception. Catering is handled by CPS Events, a joint venture of Great Performances and Delaware North, which builds custom menus and set-ups for the room.
