Weylin stands as a testament to the rich tapestry of history and elegance, having risen from the ashes of the Williamsburgh Savings Bank. With origins dating back to 1875, this iconic venue, crafted by the esteemed architect George B. Post and adorned with interiors designed by the visionary Peter B. Wright, underwent a meticulous restoration, garnering accolades for its preservation of a bygone era. The frescoed dome, intricate mosaics, wooden carvings, and period decor collectively form a masterpiece—an ideal setting not only for weddings but a diverse array of events, from galas and performances to art shows and experiential activations.

Seymour, a charismatic 19th-century socialite, revered party host, and serendipitous matchmaker who left an indelible mark on the cultural fabric of Williamsburg.
