Yes, Hudson House hosts your ceremony and reception on the same waterfront property in Port Liberté, so nobody has to travel. You can marry outdoors on the grounds by the Hudson River, or indoors in the Grand Ballroom, which holds up to 400, or the Hudson Room, which holds up to 225 and has a private terrace. On-site ceremonies start at $15 per person and include chair setup, a wedding attendant, and fruit-infused water and prosecco for guests. Ceremony-only events aren't offered.

Catering and the bar at Hudson House are handled in-house, with Felina Steak running the kitchen and scratch-made menus that include cultural, vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options. Outside caterers are allowed for select events, such as Kosher and Indian weddings, through a trusted partner list. Your DJ has to come from the venue's preferred list, and any other vendor you bring needs a Certificate of Insurance. Cakes come from bakery partners Palermo's, Calandra's and Vincenzo Salvatore Cakes.

Wedding packages at Hudson House in Jersey City start at $254 per person. Your rate depends on the day of the week, the time of year and the time of day: May, June, September and October are peak months, while January through March is off-peak and adds Winter Weddings extras at no added cost. Saturday daytime weddings usually get the best pricing, with a shorter event. There's a food and beverage minimum set by the day and the space, and you'll guarantee it in your contract. On top of the package, plan for a 24% administrative fee and 6.625% NJ sales tax. Guests 13–20 are $10 less than adults, kids 5–12 are $65 and kids 4 and under are free.

Amplified music is indoors only.

Hudson House sits right at the water's edge in Port Liberté, with views of Freedom Tower, the Statue of Liberty and the Brooklyn, Manhattan and Verrazano bridges. Your ceremony and reception happen on the same property, and an Event Stylist is your single point of contact from your tour through your wedding day. Your wedding party gets the Hudson House Wedding Suite and can arrive two hours early, with photos on the Stork Club rooftop. Every guest gets complimentary valet, and pets are welcome for outdoor photos and the ceremony.
