“The Cracker Factory was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the initial communication via email, which was always prompt and helpful, to the day-of execution, the staff at The Cracker Factory exceeded our expectations. Their beautiful, industrial space provided the ideal backdrop for our ceremony and reception. The team worked closely with us to develop the perfect layout, ensuring the flow of the event went smoothly. On the day, the staff assisted with vendor entry and attended to countless details to keep everything running seamlessly. We were especially impressed by the stunning vines along the side of the building, which had turned a vibrant red color for the fall, adding to the already gorgeous ambiance.

“Defiance Hall is a remarkable setting for a special event. Having attended a Scottish dinner there, I was amazed at the meticulous renovations that have gone into preserving and repurposing this spacious historic building, once a 1820's sawmill located between Forts Crown Point and Ticonderoga. The attention to detail and quality of the work and interior furnishings are impressive while rustic and comfortable, not to mention the fact that War Cannon Spirits produces fine small batch whiskeys and bourbons in their nearby distillery! Having worked with the owner to help organize the Burns Night dinner, I can also say that the crew is easy and pleasant to work with.

“The Garrison itself is absolutely stunning - even more beautiful in person - and the staff was warm, attentive, and professional throughout. Our guests are still raving about the food, and the entire space came together perfectly for both the ceremony and reception. What really made the day seamless, though, was the team that supported us. Annie, our day-of coordinator, was an absolute godsend. We were juggling unpredictable weather, miscommunications, and a whole lot of last-minute uncertainty, and she handled it all with such calm, measured grace. She kept things on track and gave us the gift of peace of mind - we truly couldn’t have done it without her. Fatima, my bridal assistant, was my right hand from the moment I arrived. She anticipated every need before I even had to ask - always three steps ahead, always composed, always kind. I felt fully taken care of, which is exactly what every bride hopes for. We’re so grateful to the entire team - thank you for making our wedding day so beautiful and so easy to enjoy.”

“Sound River Studios was the perfect venue. From our first visit we were amazed at how personable and committed to making our day special the team was. While most venues unlocked the doors and let us take a quick look, Una spent the better part of an hour giving us a full tour, showing us photos of countless possible setups, and answering any and every question we could think of. Throughout the planning process Una was always ready to help, not to mention tell us a great story. Nikola was also gracious enough to host us for a great tasting of the wine offerings from the family vineyard. The view of the city speaks for itself, but the space is also beautiful and very flexible. We were able to bring in a variety of outside vendors to transform the space in a way that fit our vision and felt very personal. SRS was easy to work with and the day of ran very smoothly, even with a variety of vendors. We couldn't be more happy with our experience. Highly recommend!”

“We knew when we walked in that this was going to be it. From day 1 I felt like we were in the best hands and we absolutely were, Stonebridge was a literal dream. Our wedding day was best day and night ever, and Stonebridge was to thank for that and more. Everything was beyond perfect. The venue is beautiful from its floor to ceiling windows in the reception room, to big bar in the cocktail hour room, and huge and stunning bridal suite. We had 262 attend and with utilizing inside and outside for cocktail hour we all fit comfortably. Not crowded at all once they open the reception room up. The grounds are gorgeous with a well-manicured green, trees, flowers, bridge for first look and waterfall. The way they set up all of our signs, Jenga guest book, memory table, escort cards, cigar bar, other photos and decor was better than I even imagined. The food was AMAZING. Cocktail hour stations, pass-arounds, salads, main courses were delicious and had gotten great feedback even from foodie guests. There is also sooo much to choose from. We received so many compliments from guests about how good everything was. Just have to say again we had some VERY critical foodie guests and literally everyone loved it. From the very start, Diana, our event coordinator was a GEM to work with. Never pushy and always honest throughout the process, responsive and patient with me especially two weeks leading up to the wedding when I had questions multiple times a day. Terrance, the maitre’d, is THE BEST. He ran the wedding like clockwork even with our large amount of guests we were on schedule from morning until the end. He goes above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect for you, on schedule, and that your drink and plates are never empty, pulling us away to have a moment to ourselves or wherever we needed to be at multiple points of the evening. He makes you feel that your wedding is as special and important to him as it is to you. My bridal attendants were also lovely. I don’t like when people are doing stuff for me in general and I’m an easy going do things myself person but they were literally there every second for anything I needed. Stonebridge is ON IT ALL, they know EXACTLY what they are doing! I would choose Stonebridge again and again and will continue to rave and beam about them 5ever.”

We exchanged our personal vows before the ceremony, which took place outside in front of a beatiful waterfall. The setting was absolutely beautiful and created the perfect backdrop for our special day. Cindy and the entire 650 crew were phenomenal! Their attention to detail and commitment to making our day perfect was evident in everything they did. I wish I had more time to give each of them a hug for their incredible work!

“Nancy, I can’t even begin to express how grateful we are for how hard you and your team worked to make our day absolutely perfect. It was everything and more. The team and LHF/LOM went above and beyond. Despite some hiccups in communication and me getting frantic, you made sure to stay connected with the team to ensure our day was how we wanted it to be! Alyssa was absolutely phenomenal. Her attentiveness to details ensuring that everything was placed specifically how we wanted it. Her calm presence helped calm my anxiety and made the day truly a joy. She was ready for whatever to make sure we were satisfied!! She made sure to get ahold of everyone between the staff there, my photographer, and florist. She was GREAT! Tracy was a CAKE LIFE SAVER! Our cake stand was too small and she went out of her way to make sure we had something to put our cake on, which turned out to be a personal item from home! Tracy was so kind she even sat and played with our 17 month old while the groom had something to do. The staff at the restaurant that worked endlessly serving our food and cleaning things up - please thank them all for us as their work did not go unnoticed! Lastly, please thank Bryan for his awesome bartending skills and leniency with the bar! I had just missed the open bar closing at 8 (it was 8:05) and my aunt wanted to take a shot in honor of my deceased mom. Bryan without hesitation poured us our drinks. Bryan always had a smile on his face and a great attitude. I’ve never in my life seen an owner out there working alongside his employees for such an event! Great job Bryan! Gareth and I are two very humble people. For some our wedding may have seemed like a small, quickly planned wedding but to us it was everything and more. It all came together perfectly! The fresh greenery, the florals, the candles etc. We truly felt so spoiled by all of the littlest things that everyone did that day. Now we have a place to celebrate our anniversary every year, listening to a live band, watching fireworks, or picking flowers at the farm. We hope the success of the restaurant remains so he has a spot to take me out for our anniversary dinners! I have no doubts about its success. It is such a unique spot that I think will continue to flourish. We thank you all again SO SO much and we can’t wait to see the video footage from our special day! Gareth & Elizabeth Allen”

“We had our wedding reception at Doublé and it was hands down the best decision we made for our big day. We wanted something that felt like us, not a stuffy ballroom, but somewhere with real energy and character. Doublé delivered on every level. The space looked incredible, the cocktails were flowing, and the food had our guests talking all night. The staff treated us like family from the very first conversation to the last song of the night. If you're a couple looking for a Brooklyn venue that breaks the mold, stop searching. This is it.

“We got married 1/5/25 but had been working with Miriam for probably a year and a half before our big day. She was always so personable with us a treated us like family. Words cannot describe the love and care we felt from Jake, our maître D and Samantha, our bridal attendant, on our wedding day. We were cared for tediously and effortlessly. We felt like at ease, happy and totally relaxed. I needed Samantha and didn’t even know it, I am forever indebted to her - she could not have been more attentive and wonderful. Comforting me, assuring me, getting me where I need to be and when. So friendly, kind and amazing. Thank god for Jake. He is so special and we’re so lucky we got him as our maître D. He deems himself as a “yes man” and he is not lying. Anything you could have ever wanted from him, he’d deliver. We wanted for nothing, had wonderful direction from him all night and he took care of EVERYTHING!  The night was flawless, amazing, perfect and all we could have ever hoped for. The staff at Bourne is unmatched, we made the right choice with this venue. Guests will be in awe of the venue and talk about the food for years to come. I wish I could do it all again. Thank you Bourne mansion & staff for the best night of our lives! I don’t have all my pics back yet!”

“My husband and I met in a wedding band so we have been to more than 400 weddings, almost all of which were extremely high end, so we knew exactly what we wanted and had very high expectations (on much less of a budget than the weddings we play)! We are so thrilled to have chosen this venue for our wedding because they knocked it out of the park! My family is not from the NY area and they were blown away by the building, the amount and quality of food, the service, etc. My husband’s family IS from the NY area so they expected great things, and the MOB delivered. Emily was so amazing through the entire process, answering my incessant emails and questions quickly and kindly. Mike we got into contact with the week of the wedding and everything ran smoothly. They were patient while we figured out how to make my husband’s vision of a large king’s table for us and our large bridal party happen, and facilitated all of the coordinating. I still had my own month of coordinator, but they take care of so much there, she was able to focus on more minute details because they had everything handled. We did not use any of their recommended vendors. We had a friday wedding to ensure we were the only ones getting married there that day. Bridal and groom’s suite were excellent. Timeline followed to a tee. Could not be happier! And a little hint to future couples: don’t listen to people who say Lessings is bad because they do so many weddings; they are so good at weddings because they do them all the time. Take it from someone who has seen it all, you DO NOT want to go to a place that doesn’t really do weddings. And lastly, so many of the most expensive places we have played are very similar to the mid-tier places we play. Don’t worry if your wedding isn’t at the Pierre, it is upsettingly similar to have it elsewhere.”

The food was amazing- we got so many compliments on it. The venue itself is so pretty that you don’t really need a ton of decor.
