We got married at New Park about 4 months ago, and it was absolutely magical! The scenery was breathtaking—exactly what I envisioned for my “backyard, but not a backyard” wedding. Multiple guests even said it was the favorite wedding they’d ever attended! There was plenty of space to dance, but guests also had so many other fun options like cornhole, ping pong, and relaxing by the fire. The venue is truly unique, and if I could do it all over again, I wouldn’t choose anywhere else. Huge thanks to Sara and the entire New Park team for making our day unforgettable!

We had our wedding at Osmica in September 2025 and wow, it was the best decision we've ever made. Planning a wedding can be a stressful experience, especially when you're doing it remotely from North Carolina. We knew we wanted a rustic but upscale barn wedding in our hometown and found Osmica through various online searches. The property? Absolutely breathtaking. The views? Stunning. But the best part of all was Allie and Kurt. They're superheroes. They truly took so much stress off of our shoulders and we couldn’t imagine having our wedding anywhere else. Allie was instrumental in executing our vision for the weekend from our first meeting 15 months before our wedding date. She guided us through the maze of vendors, rentals, flowers, potential layouts, etc. and helped us plan our weekend schedule with great care, flexibility, and attention to detail. When it came to the wedding weekend, we hosted our rehearsal dinner and Friday evening welcome drinks at Osmica as well. Allie and Kurt provided set-up and clean-up for the dinner, creating a dreamy tablescape under the maple trees. The wedding day itself was smooth sailing and stress-free, thanks to Allie and Kurt's tireless preparation and hospitality. They communicated behind the scenes with every vendor to ensure a smooth run of show. This allowed us to be fully present on our wedding day. Allie also put together our bouquet and additional flowers on the pergola directly from the flower garden at the farm. Her creativity and artistry is seriously unmatched!! Lastly, we have to shout out the farmhouse itself. Staying on-site with our family and friends was such a special bonus for the weekend. We especially loved the homemade, farm-fresh breakfasts we shared each morning. The rooms were clean, beautiful, and filled with thoughtful amenities. It provided the perfect, peaceful space for us to get ready together on the big day. Allie and Kurt, thank you for making our wedding the best weekend of our lives.

With doors on both sides to allow for a breeze, AC and heat, as well as a stunning view of Seneca Lake, we felt comfortable being able to enjoy the outside views and inside comforts. Ann, the coordinator, was wonderful to work with. The bartenders were sociable and skillful and really interacted with our guests and they did a wonderful job with our signature cocktails. If we could do it again, we would. Flatt Rock gave us the flexibility to make the day uniquly ours and not be cookie cutter.

We could not have asked for a better wedding experience than the one we had here! From the second we met Mandy and Greg (the owners) and then toured the property, we were hooked. They are so experienced in the wedding industry and made our vision of our big day a reality. One of the best parts of our wedding weekend was the all-inclusive nature of the property. We got access starting Friday and had the venue all the way until Sunday. This allowed us to bring our decorations and start setup without last minute stress. The night before we had our ceremony rehearsal and then held a bonfire for our guests. The morning of we used their onsite cabins to get ready, and then took some of the most breathtaking photos. You can tell just how much thought that they put into making the landscape beautiful, with endless flowers. Our guests had a wonderful experience as well, with attendants for parking and constant friendly faces directing them where to go. The site for the ceremony is just a short walk from where you park and is right on the river…. gorgeous. Our other vendors were able to communicate easily with the venue owners and it allowed for our day to go by stress-free. Day of coordination is included and truly made the experience. We met with Mandy and Greg multiple times during the planning process and it allowed us to put full faith in them. The venue is spacious which is ideal for a variety of different vendors, allowing for personalization of your day without fear that things won’t fit. Meeting Mandy and Greg was fate, and led to our day being more than we ever could have imagined. We cannot thank them enough for taking our vision and making it a reality! We can’t wait to come back for future events, both ours and others, and see the venue flourish and grow.

We wanted a small, laid back wedding with our closest family and friends. Seneca Lake Brewing Co was perfect for our needs! Megan was great to work with, and made it so we could easily coordinate everything from out of state. Megan and Brad did an amazing job of managing everything so we could just enjoy our day, and they made it so much more fun! If you are looking for a beautiful space with great hosts at a reasonable price, you need to check out Seneca Lake Brewing Company!

Our wedding was in August 2020 during the pandemic. There were many questions as to what we could do, things opening and closing, and confusion all around. Katrina and Russell kept us informed, made suggestions, and made our day perfect! They had open lines of communication and helped us through an already stressful time. Our wedding was perfect, even during a pandemic. With there help it was as close to a normal wedding as one could have. We will always be grateful for there assistance and will alway recommend Wolf Oak Acres as a Premier Venue!!

My partner and I live in New York City and weren't planning on having our wedding in the finger lakes. But we were taking a vacation up there shortly after having been engaged and decided to visit the Cracker Factory for "fun" to "practice seeing venues". And then we fell in love with the space. Suddenly, we were planning a finger lakes wedding. And boy am I glad we did. The space is just perfect for an event like this. It's big, but doesn't feel it. There's room for dancing, and for having a conversation with an old friend you can actually hear. The back bar is amazing, and the outdoor deck is just the right size. And the team was incredible as well. Amy and then Ashley were responsive, understanding, and incredibly accommodating. We wanted to do things a little different from the prototypical wedding, and Ashley helped us with it all. Genuinely, there were zero hitches the whole day (not counting my wife and I getting hitched). And the price for what you get? Incredibly reasonable! (as far as weddings go). Truly, we felt like we got a steal. TL;DR If we got married ten times, we'd do all ten at the Cracker Factory. It was everything we wanted and more.

Hayloft on the Arch was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first contacted them, Alisha and the team provided clear, quick, respectful and knowledgeable communication that made the planning process super easy. The venue itself is beautifully lit, open, easily accessible, and spotlessly clean - it was the ideal backdrop for our special day. When we had some last-minute complications with our caterer, Alisha handled the situation very professionally and eased my nerves, ensuring everything went off without a hitch. This is a stunning venue with a wonderful family running it, and we didn't have to worry about a thing. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect, all thanks to the amazing team at Hayloft on the Arch.
