Hi everyone,
After thinking about it, our 150+ person brunch wedding is probably not going to happen. We are thinking of switching gears to a 50-60 person wedding, and both my partner and I really enjoy the Goat. Has anyone attended a wedding there? Have you got married there? Yay? Nay? Any other restaurants you can think of (we have also contacted Edna).

Can they hold 60 people with social distancing?
Like, normal pack em in line sardines days, sure, easy.
It is September 2021.. so.. hopefully social distancing will be a lot more relaxed. In any event, they have confirmed they can host it so I assume they are following current social distancing standards.
I don't mean to be a pessimist, but even our public health officials, who generally try not to necessarily induce fear or pessimism, think we are in this for 1-3 years...I guess I'm saying don't put any big deposits right now...
Or just high grade the guest list down to the 10-15 must haves.
Social distancing still in place next year then invite just them, if not in place invite the whole list! That would make for an interesting “save the date” for those on the B list...
That’s exactly why we switched. It’s easier to downgrade at a restaurant instead of a venue where we had to cater/ rent equipment/ etc.
Not super helpful, but East Coast Pop Up Weddings did some weddings there in April 2019, you can scroll back on their instagram and see pictures. Plus if you want someone to deal with most things for you she seems like a lovely human to work with.
That is helpful, thanks!!
Can vouch that East Coast Pop Up weddings is amazing - and I think they do wedding packages up to 50 people now. I didn’t get married at the Goat (which looked amazing), but I got married in the event at the Seaport Market and it was excellent. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a stress free way to plan/host a small wedding.
Had ours at Pippa (now Lot 6).... one of the coolest intimate venues in the city ! Highly recommend :)
You’ve all convinced me! I will send them an email haha
The atrium is dope. It’s pretty pricy on the weekends tho.
Edit: by pricy I mean it’s expensive to book out for a weeding on the weekend, in general it’s average prices.
I mean, everything wedding is expensive unfortunately. But with a smaller guest list, I think it'll be manageable.
I’ve attended reception style gatherings upstairs which is where I assume your be having it, but either up or downstairs is gorgeous. We had a great time and the food is unreal there. Service was on point too. Would definitely recommend!
That’s exactly what we want to hear 😂 thank you!

I went to a wedding at Lot 6 and it was great!
We’ve heard such great things but we are vegetarians and they aren’t so veggie friendly :((
