Felina Ridgewood hosts weddings, ceremonies, corporate events, executive meetings and private dinners, with a main ballroom, The Treasury, that takes 200 guests for a wedding and up to 250 for a corporate event. The Italian-inspired restaurant and its event spaces occupy a former neoclassical bank at 18 Prospect Street in downtown Ridgewood, New Jersey, and belong to the ByLandmark hospitality group.
Seminars and company events
The group's corporate team sells the building for company gatherings, executive meetings, networking evenings and client entertainment. The Treasury Ballroom can hold up to 250 guests for a corporate function. Smaller groups can use the Vault, a private room set inside the original bank vault, or the Boardroom, and the rooftop, La Terrazza, adds open-air dining and cocktails around a brick oven for pizza. Full buyouts of the building are offered. The website gives no detail on audio-visual equipment, so organizers should list their technical needs in the brief.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are the core of the event business. The ceremony can take place indoors in The Treasury, cocktail hour moves to The Mezzanine above the main room, and the reception returns to The Treasury, so the whole day stays in one building. Packages bundle a cocktail hour, an open bar, a seated dinner, the cake and tableware. Each couple works with a dedicated event stylist, and private suites are set aside for the couple and the wedding party to get ready. Valet parking is included, the building is fully accessible and pets are welcome for the ceremony and photos. Outside caterers can be brought in for selected events, including kosher and South Asian weddings.
Rooms and capacities
The Treasury is the main hall, under high ceilings with exposed brick. It holds up to 200 wedding guests or 250 at a corporate event, and seated dinners of 50 to 100 guests are also offered there. The Mezzanine overlooks it and takes 200 for a cocktail hour. The Vault seats 40 in a semi-private room inside the former safe. La Terrazza, the rooftop bar, suits cocktail hours and welcome parties. The Boardroom and the wedding suites complete the building, without published capacities.
Catering
Food comes from the restaurant kitchen, which serves seasonal Italian-inspired dishes, alongside an award-winning wine list, craft cocktails and small-batch spirits. Private dining menus and signature drinks are tailored for each group. Kosher and South Asian weddings may use an approved outside caterer.
History and setting
The building was a bank before it became a restaurant, and the conversion kept its neoclassical frame, high ceilings and the vault itself, now a dining room. Ridgewood is a village in Bergen County with a walkable downtown of shops and restaurants, and Prospect Street sits at its center.
Getting there
Ridgewood station, served by NJ Transit, is in the village center within walking distance of Prospect Street. Newark Liberty International Airport is the closest major airport. Guests arriving by car can use the complimentary valet.
