GREAT TIME and GREAT PLACE -- loved it

Everyone asked me how I found this place and it was so great and perfect for our party.
Excellent Wedding Venue
- An Eventective User
from Brooklyn, NY
Just had a 100 person wedding at Machines with Magnets and honestly, it couldn't have gone better. The staff was incredible to work with, the bartenders were kind and talented, the venue is gorgeous and adaptable with many different spaces for guests to inhabit. It couldn't have gone better and I can't recommend MWM highly enough!
