From the moment we booked our wedding at Timber Banks Clubhouse, the staff was incredibly organized and helpful. The on-site planners guided us through the entire process, ensuring every detail was accounted for. The ballroom was absolutely stunning, spacious and beautifully appointed. The food was exceptional, with each dish perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. On the day of our wedding, the staff went above and beyond to make sure everything ran seamlessly.

I will be raving about our wedding at The Lincklaen House for the rest of my life. From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect thanks in huge part to the incredible Carrie. She is truly phenomenal. Her warmth, organization, and attention to every single detail made our entire experience feel effortless. She checked in with us throughout the weekend, made sure we had everything we needed, and treated our day like it truly mattered to her. This was the first and only venue we toured and we immediately knew it was the one. The charm, the affordability, the incredible food, and the all-in-one setup made it a no-brainer. Ceremony, cocktail hour on the patio with outdoor games, dinner, and an after-party in the tavern… everything flowed so naturally and beautifully in one building. Even the air conditioning was on point, keeping everyone comfortable all day! The staff was exceptional. Audrey was amazing throughout the day, and every single team member was kind, professional, and attentive. One of the sweetest moments was when they poured apple juice into champagne glasses for the kids during the toasts, just one of many thoughtful touches that made the whole day feel magical. Our getting-ready suites were beautiful, spacious, and the perfect spot to start the day. From the small details to the big picture, the Lincklaen House made our dream wedding come true. We are so incredibly grateful and we can’t recommend them highly enough. Thank you, Carrie and the entire Lincklaen team, you gave us the best day of our lives.

If you’re considering Vanderkamp for your wedding, stop looking, you’ve found the place. From before we even arrived until the moment we left, every single person on the Vanderkamp team treated us like family, ESPECIALLY AILEEN. It wasn’t just great customer service; it was genuine care. They cared about us, our families, and our wedding just as much as we did. Knowing that allowed us to truly relax and soak in every second of the weekend. Everything ran flawlessly. There wasn’t a single hiccup. The entire day stayed on schedule, transitions were seamless, and we never once had to worry about what was happening behind the scenes because the staff had everything under control. They made what could have been a stressful day feel effortless. Our guests are still talking about the wedding. We’ve heard from countless people that it was the best wedding they’ve ever attended, and one of the biggest reasons was the incredible experience Vanderkamp created. The food was absolutely unbelievable, everyone was raving about it all weekend long. And then there’s the property itself. Calling them “cabins” doesn’t do them justice—they’re beautiful lodges with incredible attention to detail. Every building, every view, and every corner of the property feels peaceful, welcoming, and magical. There is something so special about this place that you simply have to experience for yourself. Vanderkamp gave us far more than a wedding venue—it gave us the greatest weekend of our lives and memories our families will cherish forever. In fact, before we even left, our family had already started planning a trip back because none of us wanted the weekend to end. This place will always have a piece of our hearts. Thank you to every single member of the Vanderkamp team for making our dream wedding even better than we could have imagined. We are forever grateful. We love you, Vanderkamp

If we could give it 6 stars, we would. Tucked away- seemingly in the middle of nowhere- you come onto this beautiful, well maintained resort/lodge that sits right next to the pristine salmon river (wonderful photo opportunities everywhere!). Had it not been for my husband being an avid fisherman, I would have never known this place existed. But I’m so glad I do!! The communication and transparency from our point person, Jenn, was exceptionally fantastic from start to finish. She worked with us to make sure that everything was exactly how we wanted it from the big details down to the very small ones. Our day- of coordinator, Liberty, was also amazing as was the entire staff- I would describe the entire team as a well oiled machine and we really did feel like they genuinely cared about our experience being positive. The venue is clean, new, comfortable, and elegant. The food is absolutely delicious as well and is not anywhere near the category of “typical wedding food.” Being able to have our reception there and then having the hotel attached for our guests to stay the night really took the experience to the next level and we still have guests reaching out telling us how fantastic everything was. Excellent value for the price.

We are so over the moon happy that we had our wedding at the Inns of Aurora! Highly recommended! I can write a novel about our amazing experience but will try to keep it short. The venue is so magical and by the lake! During our site visit we fell in love with the historic charm and the colorful designs and arts in each of the Inns houses and couldn’t wait to share that with our family and friends. We worked very closely with Lindsey who was so sweet and responsive and helped us with all the details such as planning our tasting, all the details about rooming, options for rehearsal and Sunday breakfast. Closer to our wedding, Kim helped us with directing the details of our wedding day, helped us with the rehearsal and worked so seamlessly with all of our vendors. Our Vendors all loved working at the Inns because everyone is so organized and friendly. We are so thankful because Lindsey and Kim, were there for us through every step of our event planning. Kim was very kind and attentive and she spent every minute from Thursday through the end of Sunday supporting us! They were truly friendly and treated us with so much love. Kim and her team made sure we stayed on time and made sure we had a chance to eat and drink during the hours of the wedding. The food was truly delicious and exceptional, during our tasting at the wedding and anytime we ate the 1833 Kitchen. Many of the rooms are overlooking the water and one last thing we loved is the special granola bar that in my opinion is one of the Inns of Aurora’s signature details. The inns of Aurora and the Spa facility will always be a special place for us and we will definitely be back. Lots of love Negar and Adam

We cannot say enough good things about this venue! Danielle (our wedding coordinator) and her team exceeded our expectations at every turn. They were intuitive - anticipating our needs often before we even asked for something - and offering suggestions on things we would not have thought of before it was too late. When we realized we had forgotten something (like batteries for the electric candles), we didn’t even have to ask. They overheard us panicking and raced to get what we needed in time for the ceremony. The event space was gorgeous and they were able to pivot when the weather turned threatening and provide our daughter with something that was even better than she had initially envisioned. There was not a single thing that we would have changed. If you are looking for a wedding venue, this all-inclusive space is more cost-effective than you might imagine because you get all your needs met at one price. If you want something more than what they offer, you can either provide it yourself or they have other low-cost add-ons, but honestly, we added very few things because what they offered was superb. They worked hand in hand with our vendors (photographer, videographer, florist, DJ) in a seamless manner, so that we didn’t have to be the go-between all the time. Weddings can be stressful, but because of Danielle and her team, our event - even with unexpected challenges - was stress-free. It was the joyous, beautiful wedding that our daughter had always dreamed of. Thank you truly doesn’t cover it!

From the moment we first spoke with John at the John Joseph Inn, my husband and I felt incredibly cared for and supported. This was the first and only venue we visited when we first started planning and we knew right away this would be the place for our wedding day. John's thoughtful and flexible communication style put us at ease throughout the entire planning process. The stunning grounds and elegant venue felt like something out of a movie - the perfect backdrop for our special day. John and his team went the extra mile to incorporate every detail that was important to us, including working with us to build a custom menu that featured chicken from our family farm and custom desserts inspired by our mothers' recipes. The ability to have welcome cocktails and a day-after brunch all on the property allowed our guests, some of whom traveled a great distance, to spend more quality time celebrating with us. We also had plenty of kids attend, and they were having the time of their lives playing in the orchard throughout the wedding weekend. We are so grateful to the John Joseph Inn for helping to make our wedding day truly unforgettable.

David and I just had our wedding here this past Saturday. I could not ask for a more perfect venue - from the scenery, the beautiful Enchantment Garden, the proximity to the Falls and downtown Ithaca, to the amazing staff, food and service, we highly recommend the Inn at Taughannock Falls for a wedding venue, as well as a place to just stay the night and have an AMAZING meal from the restaurant (which we did the Thursday night before the wedding). All of our guests loved their accommodations, and Hillside house in particular served as the best "hang out", groomsmen getting ready, and after party spot. The full kitchen came in clutch for after party snacks and getting ready food. The Victorian Inn was literally perfect for hair and makeup and the fairly new 3rd salon is the ideal set up attached to a huge balcony overlooking the lake. What really made this wedding venue was the staff though. Later into the planning process, Amanda Hickey became our planner, after our previous planner Kelsey (who was also great) left. From day one Amanda was a rockstar - she was kind, thoughtful, helpful, extremely competent and organized. I did not feel like I had to start from scratch all over again with a new planner. She picked everything right back up and was key in making our perfect wedding day become a reality! Additionally, we would like to thank Stephenie who was very helpful throughout the process (including with getting us Cornell Dairy Bar for dessert!), Chef Justin, the pastry chef, Tania-Lynn, Loma, Gillian (so helpful attending to the bride the morning of the wedding and blocking traffic at the Falls first look), Carson (our personal server through the night who was so kind!!), Chloe, and all the other banquet staff! Our food options were impeccable and, while the short rib and halibut were slightly drier than preferred, they still tasted good! The cocktail hour stations and hor d'ourves were OUTSTANDING, and I must particularly thank and call out the Inn's chef and pastry chef making gluten free versions of everything for me (from the bread course, to Lobster puff pastry, and even special muffins at the Sunday breakfast) - and they did such a good job with it!!! All in all, this place is amazing and we highly recommend people have their wedding venue here (or at least visit it!). We cannot wait to come back to visit for our anniversaries too.

We knew we wanted to get married at a Finger Lakes winery and couldn't have chosen a more beautiful place to get married than Ventosa Vineyards. The Seneca Lake views and the vineyards created the most incredible backdrop for our ceremony and photos! The staff was amazing throughout the entire process and made planning our wedding so easy. They were attentive, professional, and truly cared about making our day special. So many of our guests mentioned how blown away they were by the venue. We were told several times that it was the best wedding they've ever been too, the food was hot and one of the best meals they've ever eaten at a wedding. We are so grateful to the Ventosa team for helping create such a perfect and memorable wedding day!

I have had the pleasure of photographing many weddings with the Statler hotel over the years, and I have always been amazed at their professionalism and attention to detail. Melissa Hill is so kind, and makes sure that all of the guests at the event have the best experience possible. The hotel itself is beautiful, they serve amazing food, and the accommodations at the hotel are so high quality. This is the perfect venue to accommodate all of your guests in the heart of Cornell.

Our wedding weekend at Belhurst Castle was nothing short of magical. From the moment our guests arrived until the last shuttle departed, every detail exceeded our expectations. The rooms were absolutely beautiful—each one had its own charm and character, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how comfortable and unique their accommodations were. The castle itself is breathtaking, with stunning views of Seneca Lake that created the perfect backdrop for our wedding. What truly sets Belhurst apart, though, is its incredible staff. Every single person we interacted with was warm, professional, and genuinely invested in making our weekend unforgettable. No request was too big or too small, and they always made us feel like we were their top priority. A very special thank you to Morgan and Sharon. They were absolutely amazing throughout the entire planning process and during the wedding weekend itself. Morgan ensured our rehearsal dinner was flawless, and Sharon worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make sure our wedding day ran seamlessly. Their organization, communication, and calm demeanor allowed us to truly relax and enjoy every moment with our family and friends. We never had to worry because we knew we were in the best hands. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but Belhurst Castle made the entire experience enjoyable. Every detail—from the ceremony to the reception—was executed perfectly. Our guests are still telling us it was one of the most beautiful weddings they've ever attended. If you're considering Belhurst Castle for your wedding or even just a weekend getaway, don't hesitate. It's a stunning venue with exceptional service and a team that genuinely cares about making your experience unforgettable. Thank you to everyone at Belhurst Castle for giving us the wedding of our dreams. We'll cherish the memories we made there for the rest of our lives. Photo Credit to Dear Grace Photography
