The team worked closely with us to develop the perfect layout, ensuring the flow of the event went smoothly.

“Aside from the beauty of the lake and the hotel, this place did it all for us. Any extra things we wanted for the wedding or reception just needed to be dropped off and the event coordinators took care of the rest. The coordinator we met with was great with communication through email. We really enjoyed our dinner tasting - the food was amazing! The coordinators made the day run so smoothly. The room for the cocktail hour was set up wonderfully. Table settings are included with the package and the candles looked perfect. We felt secure in knowing we could easily move the ceremony inside with any weather concerns. The landscaping/greenery is so well taken care of, it looked fantastic for our ceremony outside on the patio. The hotel staff set up, serve, and clean up - it made for a very relaxing weekend. Our hotel room was incredible also. The hotel was generous with leaving little surprises and gifts for us when we arrived to our room. It was all worth the price.”

“We are so happy we found Flatt Rock for our June 2025 wedding. We knew we wanted a vineyard or brewery vibe, but after viewing a few other places we worried about inclement weather. Flatt Rock's View is a new building built with weddings in mind. 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.”

“I loved working at this wedding venue to film and photograph a wedding this past August 2025! The communication from the wedding day coordinator from Once was friendly, and she had great communication which made the entire event easy to shoot. The facility itself is a hidden gem, offering a beautiful setting with stunning views of Seneca Lake and the Finger Lakes region. Everything was conveniently located in one place, from the ceremony to cocktail hour and reception, making the flow of the day seamless for me as a vendor. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend Once Finger Lakes to any couple looking for a unique and memorable wedding venue. As a videographer and photographer, the lighting and having the whole event in one place were highlights making this a venue I would love to work with again. I also loved seeing guests natural smiles and reactions to seeing the cool "wine vending machines" they could use on site, and the customized drinks were also a nice addition. I could tell guests and the couple were all really enjoying the experience from the content I captured.”

“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”

“My husband Drew and I had our wedding at the Inn in June of 2026. We are over the moon with the whole experience and had the absolute best wedding day and weekend. Tania-lynn and Abigail, our wedding planners, were a tremendous help in keeping us on track and staying organized during the planning process. Abigail was an absolute rockstar on our wedding weekend, helping everything run smoothly. She did a wonderful job getting everything set up to match our vision exactly, and was incredibly organized. Everyone went above and beyond to ensure we could have the best weekend possible. Stephenie, who gave us our initial tour of the venue, the bar manager, chefs, all of the staff, bartenders (everyone was raving about Josh!), bridal attendant Gillian, everyone involved was incredibly helpful and kind. The food was excellent and our signature drinks were executed perfectly. We loved the desserts and late night bites. The bridal suite was amazing to use for everyone to get ready, the hillside suite was great for the guys to get ready and hang out in. We could not have asked for a better day!

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.

“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 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!”

“We had our wedding at Osmica in June 2026 and had a wonderful experience. Allie and Kurt have created a truly unique and special place that is so much more than a venue. The property feels both grand and regal, while also rustic and down to earth. From the gorgeous restored barn and incredible farm house, to the rolling pastures and beautiful sweeping views, it is the perfect place for an Ithaca wedding! Our ceremony was stunning, thanks to Kurt’s handmade wooden Chuppah and Allie’s gorgeous wedding florals. She did all of the florals for our wedding and we were totally blown away by their beauty! We did a one day wedding rental, including renting the whole farmhouse for getting ready (there are separate sides where the bride and groom can get ready which was great) and stayed in one of the rooms upstairs for our wedding night. The space was so beautiful, clean, comfortable, and gave us a much needed landing place before, during, and after the wedding. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but Allie was a great source of stability and consistency in the wedding planning chaos. She was professional, kind, and timely when communicating with us and with our various vendors. Over the many months of planning, Allie really listened to our preferences and priorities and worked really hard to bring our unique vision to life. From all of that hard work, our wedding was incredible! All in all, we would absolutely recommend anyone looking to get married in Ithaca to get married at Osmica. You won’t regret it!

She made us feel comfortable and welcomed from day one, and her open communication style made the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. The venue itself is stunning, with spacious indoor and outdoor areas that gave us the flexibility to create exactly the day we envisioned. What really set Megan and her team apart was how they went above and beyond for us—she even helped coordinate a special tradition with my father that made the day feel truly personal and meaningful.

“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.”

“The Big Tree Inn absolutely exceeded my expectations for our wedding. From the start when I was just asking about options April and her team were on top of everything, very quick to respond to emails and calling back. They are so flexible, there wasn’t anything we couldn’t throw at them that they didn’t take on and absolutely dominate. The cost was such a big factor in our wedding at the Big Tree, they are so affordable and you get every cent you pay for! We originally wanted to do just our reception at the Big Tree but in the end we ended up doing the entire wedding there. April was so flexible with every little change. Words cannot express how beautiful and truly amazing our wedding was, it was everything we pictured and so much more. Big Tree Inn is the perfect place to get married and if I had to do it all over again I wouldn’t hesitate to work with the Big Tree Inn.”
