No really I was watching like...umm I think one of college buddies got married there. For real, is this a spoof of a real place cause I swear Ive been there
@@weik-2936 Yes! Last year the pink soap in the girls bathroom at my school got left in the dispenser so long it smelled like a mixture of vile chemicals and vomit, like someone tried to clean up vomit with awful smelling cleaning supplies and the 2 smells just combined. Keep in mind that this soap kinda smells like cherries when it's fresh. Huge transformation. Sorry for the rant about soap.
I’m gonna take a wild guess and say that Cosmo and Olympia are from Astoria, NY. They have to say queens or it’s too specific. They have a son Spiro who’s a disappointment and their daughter Eugenia is a hostess there.
So ...I actually got married at this place. It's called Villa Russo and it was great and affordable. But they weren't wrong about most of the stuff here.
however some places have it like some beaches where the bathrooms don't have a door or urinals so close together it's disturbing. But the bathroom part where there are no curtain or doors is wrong where someone just walks into the bathroom and sees you using the bathroom
You should go to my skating rink. It use to have no doors, and we would have to get our friends to block the bathroom stall for us incase anyone came in. We also had to do all of this on skates. Now, the skating rink has curtains.
Shout out to this skit!!! It was hilarious!! So glad they called out ridiculous wedding venues! I laughed so hard my breathing pattern was interrupted for a while. Should win an Emmy!!
Yeah, it's a wedding venue alright. See all that noise in the video? That's from having the ISO cranked way up because the lighting sucks. I'll bet it was intentional. SNL, your little gag didn't go unnoticed.
Exactly. Just did a wedding at a Catholic church yesterday. Had to crank it all the way up to 5000 because it might as well have been a cave with an overhead window. Then the reception venue looked like a place you'd go build a Frankenstein. Hurt my stomach laughing when I saw this last night.
@@manuginobilisbaldspot424 Wedding photographer in the hizzy! Shout out to all my homies brave enough to make a living at it! I'd try it if not for the potential wrath of Bridezilla! I'd also probably switch to Nikon for the better dynamic range.
For reference, this is a parody of the Grand Prospect Hall commercials and the final shot of the "pavilion" is actually of the Villa Russo Catering which I've been to and is very nice.
The place they used for this is real, it's called Villa Russo. It's in Richmond Hill, Queens on Lefferts Boulevard (last stop on the A train). It's walking distance from my house. I had my parents' 25th anniversary there. The room looks exactly like that with the windows and the scones and the balloon suck the ceiling and that's definitely the entrance. Squeaky green beans too.
The loose outlet!!!!! As a musician having played for wedding receptions... nothing worse for guitar or keyboard speaker.... loose outlets. On another note... everything they mentioned I’ve seen a hundred times...
A man isn't complete until he's married.Then he's finished. Married guys live longer. They just die a slow death. I'm my wife's third husband. Her first husband died from eating poisoned mushrooms. Her second husband died from blunt trauma to the head because he refused to eat his mushrooms.
I don’t remember being there specifically but somehow I remember this venue
The Grand Prospect Hall....Brooklyn
I think that it is Villa Russos in Queens
No really I was watching like...umm I think one of college buddies got married there.
For real, is this a spoof of a real place cause I swear Ive been there
Unfortunately, there are a lot of places like that that promise you the world for a price then don't deliver.
Ted Doumazios lmfao yes and the owners are Greek, I think
*“Pink soap that hates your hand”* this is too true
Or smells like vomit
and it's got that acrid solvent smell too!
Weik-293 omfg that *SMELL*
The soap at my school wants to kill me but only after it burns my finger prints
@@weik-2936 Yes!

"Loose outlet, you plug in your phone it gonna fall right out"
@DATING HARLEY QUINN It's a real thing. Like, old houses from the '50s to the '70s have really loose outlets, half of which don't work.
Omg, I have a travel adapter like that!!! It hates all plugs and wants to spit them out. I'm gonna skeet shoot it tomorrow. 😁
@@modemmack You a true 'merican
@@bransoncarson329 No, you got me wrong. I wasn't gonna "skeet" it with a gun. 😁🍆
Hahaha, Aidy's voice is so wonderful in this skit--had me in stitches!
Aidy is money in every sketch
I’m gonna take a wild guess and say that Cosmo and Olympia are from Astoria, NY. They have to say queens or it’s too specific. They have a son Spiro who’s a disappointment and their daughter Eugenia is a hostess there.
Ted Dernekxis 🤣🤣🤣 close enough but there are actually from Brooklyn!! 👍
"Bar Moffshis"
That's what I'm calling it from now on.
"And I'm gonnal slap my daughter in front of your family, free of charge" 😂
That was the best part 😂
That line killed me!
Don Cheadle did soo many costume changes in three minutes, holy shit the prop team rules.
he just took his jacket off for the dj part.
Pretty sure that was a pre-filmed bit so it wasn't live?
@@chloecarter-daves1528 live.
@@smokejc huh interesting. Usually these commercial spoofs are prerecorded.
@@chloecarter-daves1528 I think you're pre-recorded.
Just two immigrants who’ve achieved the American dream. Having a generic wedding venue that is classified as a Church for tax purposes.
As a wedding videographer in Southern California...
Yup.
I was just gonna say, I'm a wedding videographer and this is way too accurate.
Anyone in NYC can see this is a parody of the Grand Prospect Hall commercial 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🏾
Dw Rem I SCROLLED FAR FOR THIS ONE!!! “We make, your drimms, come trrue!”
I was just thinking that.
Even down to the music. I love when SNL does NY specific humor that others can relate to
Chris Cruz Hahahaha exactly hahahaha
stillatin me too!
I'm a wedding photographer I found this hilarious, Why are the outlets always loose, I've had to gaffer tape plugs in before!
I mean, there's definitely a joke in there somewhere about the outlet, many different plugs, and being loose.
Lol he's acting like a guy who's acting but can't act 😂😂👌👌
The range!
you're very intelligent
Absolute genius
Someone tell Harvard to get this guy a full ride
HE'S THAT GOOD!
Probably one of the best honest commercials skits talking about what to expect at a modern special occasion nowadays.
Except this place was in Brooklyn.
So ...I actually got married at this place. It's called Villa Russo and it was great and affordable. But they weren't wrong about most of the stuff here.
I KNEW IT WAS VILLA RUSSO 😂 wow Queens Legends
“At dey bar mofits” stop it!! This cracked me up!
"PINK SOAP THAT HATES YOU HANDS" i thought i was the ONLY one!
and smells like puke
@DATING HARLEY QUINN our public bathroom soap slips right off your hands and smells like pink cherrie bubblegum or something. hahah
"This place has EVERYTHING"🤣
J Roman Esquire
Dan Cortese??
Human Squatty Potties
I was just thinking that
Stefon would be proud.
Pink soap that hates your hands... so every public bathrooms soap lol too true
and makes your hands smell like vomit, seriously wtf is that about?
The only good soap is a foam soap but it doesn’t seem to make your hands clean enough tho
At least it feels like that
Weik-293
I think they just go behind a random factory, get pink toxic waste and pour it in a soap bottles.
Kate & Aidy make a great duo!
I've been to a couple weddings here. They forgot to mention that someone's car alarm will go off halfway through the reception.
The folks at The Grand Prospect Hall in Brooklyn must've loved this!
The grand prospect hall, is that you?
We make all of your dreams come true!
Come trrrrrrrue
🤣🤣🤣👍
The bathroom carpet had me 😂😂😂😂😂
I once lived in an apartment that had bathroom and kitchen carpet. 😳
My grandmas old house definitely had that bathroom carpet, so that hit home 😭
Kitchen carpet had me dead lol
I always wonder but what's this violently pink soap even made off?
Benzaiten distilled contempt
Teflon.
death
Acid. And hate.
Don Cheadle is the best host this season so far. Change my mind.
Won't 'cause you're right!😁
I say Macavoy, Cheadle is 1b
Seemed pretty robotic to me
Steve Carrell
He was boring and the sketches were below average
🤣🤣🤣 lmao !! Love it.
If you haven’t actually seen the real commercial you’ll laugh even more !!
The Grand Prospect Hall !!
I do like peeing with a bathroom curtain protecting my dignity.
however some places have it like some beaches where the bathrooms don't have a door or urinals so close together it's disturbing. But the bathroom part where there are no curtain or doors is wrong where someone just walks into the bathroom and sees you using the bathroom
You should go to my skating rink. It use to have no doors, and we would have to get our friends to block the bathroom stall for us incase anyone came in. We also had to do all of this on skates. Now, the skating rink has curtains.
"We make your dreams come true at the Grand Prospect Hall!"
was all I could think of

I need me some kitchen carpets.
Hippoge when I first moved into my house there was bathroom carpeting wall-to-wall-yes even in the toilet and shower area. So fucking gross!
😂😂
@@spotteddog1716 oh god
R Mcnary Ew! 😂
@R Mcnary Maybe that house was a wedding venue before you bought it.
"The squeakiest green beans you'll ever bite in your life!" I love that they used that as a joke...
And they've been kissed by a mouse! Can't beat that.
Dooooon!!! You are sooo funny-
How does he act like someone who doesn’t know how to act so wellll 😂😂😂😂
“....Real Housewife fashion show....” 😂😂 that deserved more laughs!
Okay, but this is literally where I had my middle school prom 😂😂😂
High school for me.
So this is a honest trailer of wedding venues
A free balloon stuck to the ceiling! lol XD
what was that accent? it kept going and returning
Laila K I don’t know, but judging from their last name, maybe Greek?
Italiano-Greek-New York-Jersey
@@eduardovillagomez3675 I assume that's what they were going for... Was not anything like a Greek accent though lol
Jersey/Mediterranean.. It's kindova ting
Their surname is definitely Greek...
Yes!! It's been awhile since they've done vintage-feeling sketches like this! Love it
The grand prospect hall- WE MAKE YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE
don cheadle is a natural. they should have him on more omg im dying hes reaching kyle mooney levels of awkward.
Sounds like Stefon
This place has everything...
Roman J Israel, Esquire

Maybe this is where Seth and Stefon got married
0:42 That's exactly the kind of outlets a friend of mine has in his house.

we makeeah weldingg loookuah likkuah weddling
I was just saying the same thing
And if the police show up : "We a church, okay?!!" 😂😂
Though we all live in different states, we’ve all been to this venue 😂.
This is exactly what ads for small NYC businesses are like. Usually you see them for funeral homes and car dealerships
they born in 2005-its weird to think that people born in 2005 are going to be 14 this year
The pink soap. I can smell it right now.
"Lose outlets, you plug in your phone and it wall fall out." xD
If you’re Greek, from Queens of like me BOTH you grew up going to places like this 8 times a year.
this actually exists in eastern europe in the 90s
WELL THERE'S A LOT OF EASTERN EUROPE IN QUEENS.
"WE MAKE YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE!!"
Watching this satire as the real Grand Prospect Hall gets demolished ... all the bittersweet feelings.

Reminds me of Antons out in Queens, has a similar kind of field. It's across the street from an old taxi stand also lol
“And if the police show up we a church” oooh let that one sink in
Anyone who lives outside NYC, Google "The Grand Prospect Hall commercial". You're welcome.
I’m from Queens and this is so accurate! Lol 😂
Omg I remember this commercial lol
The loose outlet!!!!! As a musician having played for wedding receptions... nothing worse for guitar or keyboard speaker.... loose outlets.
On another note... everything they mentioned I’ve seen a hundred times...
Kudos to a breathless Cheadle changing costumes twice in 5 minutes
with every sentence the imagery in my head brightened, I haven’t gone to a lot of weddings yet I know it so well
_"Guaranteed to blind and confuse your grandma"_
The best part was 'loose outlet...you plug in your phone...it immediately fall out...'
I went to a wedding there in ‘04. I swear to god it was the exact place. It smelled like mildew and cheap perfume.
I love Aidy so much!
"...baramossfiss" LOLLLL!!
*Grand Prospect Hall has left the chat*
The grand prospect hall we make your dreams come true. Late night commercial.
Gah, this had me in stitches ... so funny.
Lmaooo I been to too many of these wedding venues 😂😂
Hilarious! Kate and Aidy are so talented!
I know this is a parody and yet we've all been to a place like this.
So true about these venues hahaha
Kate channels Christopher Walken as The Continental? 😂😂😂
flat steak on liquid potato covered in the squeakiest green beans you'll ever bite in your life
Again, I hope Kate gets married here so they can laugh a little bit.
Don is hilarious!!
“They’ll make your dreams come true!”
A man isn't complete until he's married.Then he's finished. Married guys live longer. They just die a slow death. I'm my wife's third husband. Her first husband died from eating poisoned mushrooms. Her second husband died from blunt trauma to the head because he refused to eat his mushrooms.
Jack pine Savage and as your’re typing this she is standing right behind you... nice knowing ya! Lol
Lmao
I take it you're the wise one who eats his mushrooms then secretly throws them up when his wife's not looking, as all good husbands do?
Believe it’s based on Grand Prospect Hall in Brooklyn. They had iconic low budget commercials for years
Wow Don Cheadle is so multi-talented
This skit gives off old snl vibes
Yoooo I'm crying, my cousin had his wedding reception at the place they took all at these photos at
*bara mahvits*
I've ALWAYS wanted to go to an event at one of these. Also, I want her dress so hard.
This is classic SNL! I'm just dead.
Kate and aidy are killin it every week not enough credit so talented
Cheadle was a great host too
Great episode
No I’m actually weak. My aunt had a wedding at a venue in queens & it’s everything they’re describing
“Pink soap that hates your hands” 😂
I gotta say, Kate makes a great looking dude.
@1:30 this is Kate’s signature move and it gets me every time no matter what character
Omg its crazy how much she looks like Christopher Walken.... lmao!!
That whole clip was Funny as hell, Priceless....👏🏿.....🤙🏿
I actually had to pause the video because laughing so hard and didn’t want to miss any of it.
Cheadle is hilarious 😆 I😂
