We were at the showcase on 4/1/25. Everything was fabulous and solidified even more how happy we are that we booked with the Inn at New Hyde Park! We brought our very picky, Italian mothers with us and they were floored by everything; vendors, room, staff, food…everything was outstanding! Both moms fell in love with the cannoli girl and insisted we book her on the spot. Thank you, Lynne and your team! This showcase has made us so excited for our wedding on 4/10/26!

The Garrison was the perfect venue for our winter wedding.

From the very beginning, their communication was quick, easy and incredibly helpful as we planned our big day. The views both inside and outside the venue were absolutely breathtaking.

Thank you Barry and Amy! I cannot thank these two enough for making our wedding day the best day ever! They both went above and beyond to make our dream wedding come to life! We got married at the village club on July 12, 2024 and I could not be happier that we chose this venue! All our guests raved about the spectacular venue, amazing food and professionalism of the staff. Barry’s attention to detail, passion for what he does, and years of experience is the reason why having your wedding at the village club will be the best decision you will ever make. From the first day we booked the venue, Barry recommended incredible vendors and made the wedding process a breeze! Barry makes himself available 24/7 to answer questions, connect you with vendors and keep you calm! Even with an incredible venue, you need a capable staff to support your wedding day. Barry’s staff at the village club is amazing! Everyone is so friendly and diligent to making everything run smoothly the day of. The food is absolutely amazing! My guests came up to me all night raving about the food and saying it was the best wedding food they have ever had. After our tasting, we knew we made the right decision choosing the village club for our special day! The village club itself has had some new renovations which we were lucky enough to have for our wedding. The ballroom is completely updated and refinished, the building repainted, the room for cocktail hour has new carpet and refinished chairs to match, and the patio overlooking the golf course has a new permanent pergola structure that opens and closes for shade with fans to keep your guests cool! The renovations to the village club are incredible and give the venue a fresh new look! Barry and Amy really run such a smooth operation the day of the wedding. From the moment we arrived, Amy told us where to go, what to do and where we had to be. Barry and Amy provided us with drinks for the bridal suite and made sure everyone was taken care of! They both kept checking on us throughout the night to make sure we were eating, drinking and having the best night ever. If you are trying to decide where to get married, please go see Barry and Amy at the Village Club at Lake Success and book your wedding with them. I promise you it will be the best night of your life and you will get the chance to work with great people who want to do everything in their power to make your day the most special day ever! Barry and Amy are really the MVPs of the wedding! We love you both and can’t wait to follow along to see all the wonderful weddings you guys will have at the Village Club!

I cannot say enough good things about our experience here. From Min and Morten, to all the advisors that helped us, to all the staff who worked the venue for set up, the cooks, the servers, the bartenders, and not to mention how insanely good the food was - every single aspect of this place and the people there were truly magnificent. I was excited to marry the love of my life, sure, but after 16 years together I really viewed this as just a big party to celebrate with all the people in our lives. I expected and welcomed that view. To say it exceeded expectations is overwhelmingly unfair - it completely blew my mind how amazing the whole day was, honestly the whole weekend since there was also the rehearsal and breakfast the morning after, and I cannot express how grateful I am for how the whole experience turned out. I know I had loved the venue itself when we first visited, and that I thought the food was absolutely amazing during the food tasting, but it ended up being even more gorgeous on the day and the food for 150 people was still all so delicious that not one guest didn't mention at least one of the apps/ entree throughout the night and following day. One of my brides people who is quite the foodie snob keeps mentioning how juicy the chicken was. Seriously though, the food was just phenomenal. I never like cakes at weddings (they're always beautiful but don't taste good) and had planned on getting cake pops for my wedding, but at the food tasting I was just shocked at how amazing it was that I had to have that cake for the day. I would recommend this venue, and this staff, so whole heartedly. If any of the staff read this review, thank you all for making our special day one that will forever be a heartwarming memory.

We got married here in September 2024, and choosing this venue was truly the best decision we made. The in-house planner, Emily, handled every detail seamlessly and coordinated with all of our other vendors, making the entire process feel easy and enjoyable on our end! Stacy was our maitre d’ and we absolutely adored her—she brought the most positive, calming energy and made the day feel effortless. The food was fantastic, and they were incredibly attentive to my needs as a vegetarian, which I really appreciated. The drinks were flowing and people loved the custom cocktails. It’s been a year now, and people still tell us it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to. We couldn’t have asked for a more thoughtful team or a more perfect day. Highly, highly recommend.

We had the most amazing time at Diamond Mills Hotel! The venue is BEAUTIFUL, and the staff is wonderful to work with. My husband and I also loved exploring Saugerties! Planning a wedding in two months was challenging, but booking Diamond Mills for our wedding venue was the best decision ever! We loved working with Stephanie, Carrie, and Brianne. They are highly organized and professional. Our wedding day was truly magical! Our guests had a wonderful time! We also really appreciate how the staff working on the day of our wedding ensured that my husband and I ate well (and remembered to eat as we interacted with our guests). The food served was delicious and we loved our wedding cake! Another great thing about booking the wedding at Diamond Mills is that the hotel is attached to the wedding venue - it was very convenient for us and our guests! We received a good discount for our hotel block. The wedding package they offer at Diamond Mills Hotel is truly well-rounded! Beautiful venue with indoor and outdoor spaces, catering, open bar, wedding cake, and supportive and amazing staff to help you plan your wedding and ensure that everything runs smoothly during the day of the wedding all for a reasonable price! I used some rental decorations, and the staff made sure to carefully pack everything at the end of the night, so shipping and packing up the following day was easy! We highly recommend Diamond Mills!

The Briarcliff Manor MADE my wedding! My guests came back saying it was the best wedding they'd been to and I highly doubt it would have been that way without their incredible staff, beautiful venue, and great food! I also notably had a few crises throughout the day (by no fault of theirs or any of my other vendors) and they handled these issues with care and grace and made it so that none of my guests recognized an issue. Particularly big shout out to Kelsey, who was extremely transparent and helped us with everything big or small throughout the planning process (also a huge help on the day of); Perry, the owner, who helped with many of the bigger things along the way as well and was lovely on the day of; and Jen, the bridal attendant, who I only met for the first time on the day of, but truly proved to be my savior when things went wrong! Also highly recommend hiring Vincenza to do decor as our chuppah was even better than I imagined it being. Overall, I am absolutely thrilled with Briarcliff and would highly recommend them as a venue. They made a day that could have been really difficult into a dream come true and I could not imagine getting married anywhere else!

We also chose the premium open bar, the bartenders did an amazing job with the drinks.

From our first conversation, the team at Prospect Park Picnic House was clear about what they needed from us and what we could expect on our wedding day. The venue itself is stunning, and it delivered on every front—our guests couldn't stop talking about how gorgeous the space looked. We appreciated that they set clear guidelines to follow, which were a little frustrating but actually made the planning process smoother and helped us stay organized. They were very good at accommodating us with my service dog and a wheelchair guest we had as well. The photos from our day turned out wonderful, capturing the beauty of both the location and our celebration.

Rebecca and Yvon exceeded all our expectations and left us in awe!

The venue they provided left all our guests amazed, and the food Yvon crafted left everyone's taste buds in ecstasy. We will forever cherish the memories of our extraordinary day, and it wouldn't have been possible without the incredible service we received from these wonderful hosts. Rebecca's attentiveness and dedication matched our own, making us feel valued and cared for every step of the way.

The team was a well oiled machine, They handled every transition and any small hiccup with precision and grace. The personal attention given to the couple throughout the reception was greatly appreciated. The attention to detail day of was a wonderful contrast to their more hands-off approach to the pre-planning.

So many great things to say about this venue! *Gorgeous venue & perfect location* Every other venue we looked at had these ugly-colored, outdated carpets covering the entire reception hall. What's unique to Greentree is the beautiful large tiles and chandeliers. Not only is it breathtaking to look at, but all of your photos will sparkle and it makes for a perfect blank palette for any color scheme! The rooms are spacious enough for all of your needs, yet so intimate. Since everything is in one area, the guests are always together and it never feels like people are separated. There was plenty of room for all of our vendors to set up successfully. The location is perfect - on the water with beautiful views. We had guests from all over so New Rochelle was the perfect middle ground! Not too far from the city folks but also not too far from those living further north. *All-inclusive is the way to go* We booked Greentree the moment we got home from our initial appointment! From day 1, Kristina was BEYOND helpful with everything from wedding details, to suggestions & words of advice. We planned and pulled off an incredible, full-on wedding in only 3 months and I don't think we could have done it without Greentree. Everyone was shocked! She made everything so easy for us and low-stress. This venue has a great reputation and whenever I mentioned it, everyone was so excited and surprised I was able to book in such short timing. There are SO many benefits to an all-inclusive venue. As a bride there are a million and one things to worry about - but this venue takes care of it all. No need to worry about booking all of the details like catering and a cake decorator. Didn't need a wedding planner either because of their amazing team! The cake the baker made was STUNNING. The cocktail hour had a huge, incredible variety of food and guests were shocked to find out we still had all of our actual meal courses to follow! They were so flexible and accommodated us bringing our own cultural traditional cookies to put out as well. *Super attentive & flexible* Bradford is AMAZING and helped us with our final decisions and decor! We also received a day-of bridal attendant and maitre d' who were beyond accommodating. My bridal attendant was with me the entire night fixing my dress, holding my bouquet, asking me if I would like a drink, and helping me with anything I needed. Our maitre d' Gonzalo is a GEM. I somehow spilled an absurd amount of chocolate from the fountain smack in the middle of my dress. Gonzalo sat with me for minutes miraculously scrubbing it off until it was gone. It was an impossible task but he did not give up until the problem was fixed. He also checked in with us repeatedly throughout the night, guided us to where we had to go at certain times, and made sure we were taken care of. As all weddings, unforeseen things happen. This team is super quick on their feet! Our wedding was in October and was blue skies just about every day of the month. Of course, our weekend there was an impromptu Nor'easter. I'll admit I was bummed as I was looking forward to the gorgeous outdoor setting and photos on the water. However, when I saw how beautiful everything was inside, I was moved to tears. For a venue to successfully pull off a change like that last minute and do such a beautiful job that I was so happy & grateful to have the wedding inside, speaks volumes. It was a perfect day and I wish we could do it all over again. Thank you all SO much!!!

My wedding experience at Birch Hill was incredible, and I owe so much of that to Serena and her amazing team! We started the booking process in early March, hoping for a September/October wedding date, and thankfully found one that worked. Serena was an absolute goddess from start to finish—she gave us a thorough tour of all the location options, answered every question, and made the entire process feel effortless. We knew almost immediately that no other venue would compare! Since we were on a tight timeline, I reached out to Serena frequently with questions, and she always responded promptly and thoroughly. By our 90-day planning meeting, we were already so comfortable with everything, and Serena guided us seamlessly through food choices (of which there were so many!) and other details. Her expertise really shone through when I wasn’t sure about certain things; she made it all so simple and stress-free. On the big day, I felt so confident in Serena and her team—it was like everything was taken care of before I could even think about it. I truly felt like I had nothing to worry about and could be fully present in every moment, which made the day even more magical. They thought of every detail, big and small, allowing me to simply enjoy and soak it all in. Speaking of the food—it was hands down the best meal I’ve ever had! We chose the Cocktail Style package and went with a wide range of options, including crispy calamari with lemon-garlic aioli, French onion soup, cider bacon-wrapped chicken, pulled pork wonton bites, and mini grilled cheeses with tomato soup shooters, among others. Every single bite was phenomenal! The prime rib was cooked to perfection, and the mashed potato bar and pasta station were crowd favorites. Our guests raved about the gourmet French fry station that we had later in the night. While we handpicked the items, I genuinely believe that anything else on their menu would have been just as amazing—the quality and flavors were out of this world. At the end of the night, everything was packed up perfectly and already in my car before I even stopped partying! If I had to give any constructive feedback, it would be about the bridal suite. It was a very warm day for late September, and the air conditioning hadn’t been turned on before we arrived, so the suite was quite hot initially. Other than that, our ceremony by the pond was absolutely beautiful. While the mosquitos and some goose droppings were a minor annoyance, the setting was otherwise perfect and so romantic. All in all, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Serena’s commitment and attention to detail made our wedding truly unforgettable!

The Wythe Hotel was the perfect venue for our fall 2025 wedding. My husband and I hosted about 100 guests and wanted the evening to feel like an intimate dinner party, which turned out to be surprisingly hard to find in NYC. Most restaurants cap at around 80 people, and most traditional venues are designed for 150 or more. The Wythe struck that perfect balance. From the first time we visited, we fell in love with its aura and atmosphere — the brick walls, warm lighting, and “accessible chic” style were exactly what we were looking for. What really sealed the deal was that all catering comes from their onsite restaurant, Le Crocodile, which is exceptional. (Don’t miss the orzo cacio e pepe, the tuna tartare or the Veracruz cocktail!) Our event planner, Cassie, was amazing — organized, responsive, and clear about timelines and decisions. She made the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. The wedding day itself ran smoothly. Every member of the Wythe team was attentive, friendly, and on top of every detail. So many of our guests commented on how seamless the day felt and raved about the food and service. We can’t wait to go back to Bar Blondeau and Le Crocodile to celebrate anniversaries and future milestones. It truly was the most magical day, and we’re grateful to the Wythe team for making it so special and personal!

The Estate is such a beautiful space. When we booked about 2 years ago, we were nervous with the outdated look to it but ultimately thought the rooms were so big and would fit a big wedding. Over that time, they updated so much and it transformed the rooms it feels so open and airy in there. Jennifer was amazing throughout the whole process. She answered all of my questions so quickly. It gave me so much calm knowing I would have an answer within an hour. The day before we met with Tony who was our Maitre D. He is very obviously very experienced. He took all 1,645 bins of things I had and made sure everything was set. He made me so excited and took away my anxiety. Sweet Marylou was an angel. Marylou was our bridal attendant and oh my goodness she really made the day so lovely. She helped reapply my lipstick after dinner, fixed my bustle, made sure I ate and had a drink. We were so thankful to her. She said something my husband will never forget. “My wedding day was the absolute happiest days of my life and I am lucky enough to be a part of everyone else’s happiest day. Cherish each other” We will never forget them because they made it so wonderful. Every guest said they were never hungry or thirsty. The service was wonderful and there was not an issue in sight. We were so so pleased we chose The Estate as our venue. Thank you guys for everything!
