What antun's of queens village does

Antun's of Queens Village is a privately held, family-run banquet hall and full-service catering venue founded in January 1945 and located at 96-43 Springfield Boulevard on the Queens-Nassau border in New York City. The company operates five to six elegantly appointed event spaces — including the Empire Room, Venetian Room, Palms Room, Grand Ballroom, Garden Room, and Elegant Suite — accommodating between 60 and 800 guests, plus the Montauk Liberty Gardens outdoor ceremony venue (the only outdoor garden ceremony space in Queens, capacity 10–300). It serves weddings, Sweet 16s, Quinceañeras, corporate galas and meetings, and life-event celebrations (christenings, communions, anniversaries, graduations), with a customer base drawn primarily from Queens, Brooklyn, Long Island, and the broader New York metro area.

The venue pairs physical infrastructure (free private parking for hundreds of vehicles, a state-of-the-art in-house kitchen, Bose surround sound, advanced LED ambient lighting, JBL outdoor audio) with bundled service offerings including a complimentary on-site event coordinator (Wedding Concierge), tiered bar packages, multiple menu formats (brunch, lunch, sit-down dinner, international smorgasbord buffet), and add-on enhancements such as custom cakes and ice sculptures. The company also offers 'Destinations by Antun's,' a destination wedding and honeymoon planning service operated in partnership with Travelmation covering Disney, Royal Caribbean, and Sandals, and sells food via the Toasttab online ordering platform.

The business model is one-time event contracts with quote-based pricing that varies by day of week, season, and guest count. Distribution is exclusively direct and consultative: banquet consultants take in-person appointments seven days a week, leads are captured through the website and a wedding planner questionnaire, and bookings are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Revenue concentration is split between high-volume individual/family celebrations and recurring enterprise bookings from NYC corporations, unions, and government agencies (e.g., AFLAC, EmblemHealth, Patrolmen's Benevolent Association). The company holds memberships in the National Restaurant Association, New York State Restaurant & Caterers Association, Queens County Liquor Dealers Association, and the Better Business Bureau of New York.
