“Just had our wedding at Black Walnut Farm in July 2026 -- it was the most joyous, happy, love filled weekend of our lives and so much of that is thanks to Sarah, Jim, our amazing coordinator Lindsey who works with the venue, Ariel, Travis, and the whole team at BWF. We had two days of events and everything went seamlessly, every detail was perfect and decorated gorgeously and with so much love and care. They paid so much attention to our vision -- even updating their late night espresso martini offering to chai espresso martinis for us! We can't imagine doing this anywhere else -- could not recommend Black Walnut Farm enough for anyone seeking a dreamy, unique wedding venue and wanting to work with an expert, compassionate, amazing team.”

The chapel offers a unique venue for important occasions, and a peaceful English garden provides s gorgeous background for photos.

“We recently got married in Peekskill and stayed at the Abbey and had our rehearsal dinner, welcome drinks, and morning after brunch there. The building and the grounds are beautiful. The food was very good and they were able to accommodate our dietary restrictions and guests needs. The rooms were nice, spacious, and very clean. Everyone had positive things to say about the events held at the space. There are two things that bring down this review. The first is that the event/sales staff is very hard to get in touch with. We left countless voicemails and sent many emails that all went unanswered. The turnover of the staff was quite high, and we never knew who we were going to be speaking with. The second major issue was that there is only one elevator and no freight elevator. The morning of our wedding the elevator was out of service. There are only 2 stories to the hotel so that is not the issue, but the wheelchair accessible room, which a guest of ours who is in a wheelchair was given, was on the second floor. Thankfully the elevator was fixed and he was able to make it to our wedding, but in the event of an emergency, we don’t know what would have happened.”

“We had the pleasure of having our daughter’s reception at the Inn. We were forced to relocate to their venue because of a gas leak at our original location. 5 hours before the wedding! The entire staff, especially Mary the manager and Matt the bartender went over and above to make sure our reception went well. Everyone enjoyed the beautiful grounds and venue space. If they can do what they did for us in 5 hours. I can only imagine what would have been with 5 months of planning! Thanks again for your attention to detail and hospitality, you saved the day….”

“I don't even have enough or the right words to describe how incredible our wedding weekend was. We got married mid May and The Arnold House exceeded our expectations. From the moment we inquired to checkout day, they went above and beyond. Everything and anything we asked for, they were able to make happen. From the Chinese tea ceremony in the main building lobby to yoga in the greenhouse to the open field for dinner to the tavern after party space, we used every space possible and it was the most incredible property to have a wedding weekend escape. The food was incredible all weekend and they made our vision of elevated dinner party come true. Highly highly recommend The Arnold House for any event.

Having everyone stay on property meant our guests felt like they were part of something special, and the ballroom itself was stunning with the perfect atmosphere for throwing a party! The food was absolutely incredible, and we loved being able to head straight to the hotel restaurant bar afterward to keep the party going.

“Magnolia was a dream for me and my husband!! I was very discouraged by the venue search and had almost given up when I stumbled across Magnolia. It looked so gorgeous I was afraid the pictures were misleading me. But while the outside doesn’t look like much when you drive up, inside it’s a fairytale world. We were in love from the moment we saw it, and all my guests were stunned. The space felt rustic and secluded—like you’re out in the woods somewhere with the sound of the river all around you. And Magnolia has built up the property with an elegance that makes it even more dreamlike. And I can’t say enough about the venue coordinator, Cheyenne! She literally worked miracles to make it possible for us to have our wedding there. This woman is sharp and incredibly knowledgeable and organized. Her recommendations and tips saved me so much. She’s super honest and upfront about things, and she does her best to take the stress and pressure of the wedding off of you. She also is very caring. Throughout the entire process, she was attentive, and I felt like she cared about me as a person, not just another client. On the day-of, she created space for my husband and I in the bustle and went out of her way to help with whatever we, or the wedding party, needed. It never felt like having a stranger around, and I knew I could trust her to handle any mishap. I highly, highly recommend her wedding planning services even if you don’t end up using the venue itself. Some tips: I personally think Magnolia works better for smaller, more intimate weddings. We had about 60 people, which filled the space nicely, but I have trouble imagining how the max amount of people (120) would fit on the dance floor. I wouldn’t recommend having a lot of vendors and tech either. I think it would clash with the space. We also really enjoyed renting out cabins for our wedding party. The rooms are nice, and it allowed us to soak in the weekend. Another great thing: the property is the perfect size for getting cool photos—small enough to walk but large enough to find lots of lovely locations. Definitely take advantage of that! I highly recommend Magnolia. I don’t know how our wedding could have been more beautiful or peaceful, and I thank all the staff at Magnolia for caring for us.”

“From the moment we toured The Madison, we knew we wanted to get married here. Aesthetically, it is perfection. We had our ceremony in the Conservatory & reception in the Grand Ballroom. Despite mixed reviews regarding communication from past brides, we were not displeased. We were not a couple who needed constant communication with the venue, which fit the standard for The Madison. The only reason we gave 4 stars, there was some turn over throughout our planning process & some replacements were better than others. I started out without concerns for the hotel blocks, but towards the final day I had some concerns & felt I was getting hard stopped quite a lot(for questions & requests that were not far fetched). However, the rooms were perfect & the staff at the counter was AMAZING. We did have a day of coordinator who helped make our vision come to life, however Charles, Maitre’d, was beyond helpful & communicative throughout the whole day! The staff were attentive, the transitions throughout the day were seamless. The guests raved about the cocktail hour & especially the dessert selection. Looking back on pictures & thinking about our day, The Madison was beyond perfect & I would do it all over again if I could.”
