We had our wedding at Vanderbilt Lakeside at the end of August and could not have imagined a better experience. From start to finish, working with Henrietta and Matt was truly seamless. Henrietta was responsive, organized, transparent, and made the planning process genuinely enjoyable. She also had many vendor recommendations that were incredibly helpful in bringing everything together. The venue is stunning and so versatile. We had 50 guests and highly recommend renting a tent for the deck if you're doing dinner outside. It really elevates the space and the flow of the reception. Our ceremony was in the yard, dinner on the deck, and dancing in the bar room, and it all flowed perfectly. The staff was amazing and made us feel like VIPs all night. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the food, the service, and the beauty of the venue. We loved staying on-site with our dog while family and friends stayed in downtown Hudson, and we arranged a shuttle for easy transportation. Setup and cleanup were a breeze, thanks not only to the Vanderbilt Lakeside staff but also to our wedding coordinator, which made the whole experience even smoother. We loved every minute and couldn't recommend Vanderbilt Lakeside enough. I almost wish I could keep it a secret because of how special it felt. It was worth every penny, and was truly the perfect place for us to celebrate.

She is reasonably priced and fully customizable depending on the event you are having. She can make mocktails and serve other drinks as well. She is very communicative and provides a stress free experience.

Beauty by Jhori 

5.0

Hudson, NY
  • Beauty professional
  • Starts at $500

Jhori Jurgenson is a certified makeup artist with over six years in the makeup industry. Immediately following her first month of makeup certification at the Austin School of Spa Technology in 2016, she was hired to work on the Lifetime movie ‘Derailed.’ Following her break into the film circuit, she has worked on several productions and commercial shoots, including ‘The Pretenders’ directed by James Franco, and continues to work on film productions that are filmed in the Hudson Valley.

Let’s start with booking. I had sent out several requests to make up artist in the area and Jhori was by far the easiest to book with and got back to me in a timely manner. To someone like me that speaks volumes. Moving onto my bridal trial, I scheduled it for the day of my bridal shower- a little nervous because I don’t wear professional make up, but all the while seeing Jhori‘s work on Instagram. I came to her spot with a inspo photo and she knocked it out of the park. Not that I had any hesitation with Jhori, but this just really confirmed that I made the right choice! The day of my wedding some of my bridesmaids have had previous experience with make up artist and did not love how they looked so they were a little worried. I can honestly say all seven of my bridesmaids loved how they looked on my wedding day, which was so important to me that they felt comfortable and happy with the makeup they had on and the dress they were wearing. One of my bridesmaids even later that day sent Jhori a message inquiring for her own wedding next year! Jhori is not only professional, but she is easy to talk to and makes for a fun experience while getting ready on your wedding day. I can honestly say I would recommend her to anybody looking to have make up done on their wedding day or for any special occasion. I cannot thank her enough!

The Rosery Flower Shop

Hudson, NY
  • Florist

Every couples love story is uniquely their own and for that reason we offer two different wedding services, both fully customizable to meet the needs of the couple. We create one of a kind floral arrangements inspired by the seasons and local availability. Our flower shop is bordered with a cutting garden which is utilized to provide unique accents that are custom grown for events, we also source blooms from other local farms right here in the Hudson Valley for your wedding flowers. .

Weddings are stressful, a wedding in 2020 is something of another word entirely.. I prayed that my daughter's vision for her wedding would come true, we marched with a motto that love conquers all! We hoped our vendors had the same determination and drive to get through the trials, changes and uncertainty with love and patience. In Erin from Rosery Flower Shop we found our artist, our champion of no matter where or how she would create our dream. Erin traveled for over 2 hours to our new venue, I still don’t know how they kept all those flowers looking so fresh. Of course we discussed our decor many, many times and we had photos she created for our vision board, but nothing truly prepared us for what Erin created! The flowers were magical, the colors used I didn’t know were in existence. My daughters bouquet was everything she dreamt of and more. Centerpieces were lush with gorgeous colors and painstaking creativity! Sweetheart table was an oasis of love ! Incredible, I am eternally grateful for all the hard work and love Erin showed Jackie through her flowers. 2020 just became a lot more beautiful!

Swoon Kitchenbar 

5.0

Hudson, NY
  • Caterer
  • Starts at $10,000

At Swoon Kitchenbar we believe in eating locally and seasonally as much as possible so that we can provide you with the freshest ingredients available. All of our food is sourced from local farms and growers and is organic whenever possible. Each menu we create is unique and designed specifically for your event with your wants and needs in mind.

If not for Swoon, we probably would not have had our wedding celebration, nor would it have been a memorable one. Amy from Swoon saved us-- twice! Two months before our wedding celebration, we encountered major issues with our original caterer who was lacking in transparency and responsiveness. Amy, on the other hand, was incredibly professional and communicative when we contacted her to see if Swoon could provide our food and bar services at the last minute. It was a miracle that Swoon was able to accommodate our request. I guess it was meant to be! Amy was super organized and made everything easy in the midst of us feeling frenzied from the mess that our initial caterer created. She went above and beyond throughout the process, coordinating with the equipment rental company, setting us up with a few tastings when we visited the Swoon restaurant for lunch (everything was AMAZING), and she even responded promptly while she was out of the country on vacation! Everything was upfront regarding pricing and options, and the options looked so amazing that it was hard for us to choose! On the day-of, my husband and I were luckily able to eat during our celebration (the staff so graciously prepared plates for us) and we were impressed by how beautifully prepared and displayed everything was, from the passed appetizers and pre-plated salad to the buffet style dinner and dessert. Everything was so fresh! We were most notably surprised by how juicy the meat was. It is evident that the Swoon team takes the time to carefully craft their dishes. I can remember eating dinner that night while my father-in-law was discussing brunch for the next day, which Amy also helped schedule for us (this is the second time she saved us-- exactly what happens when your in-laws are last-minute planners)! Brunch at Le Perche, Swoon’s sister restaurant, was excellent as well. Go with Swoon if you want phenomenal food and service. We couldn’t have done it without them!

Hudson, NY

Welcome to The Caboose, a stunning 3,500-square-foot space steeped in Hudson Valley history, reimagined for an open, modern feel that’s both communal and cosmopolitan. With its soaring beamed ceilings and expansive cathedral windows, The Caboose is truly the best wedding venue in Hudson, NY and the perfect spot to host your next seated event, where guests can enjoy a seasonal farm-to-table menu curated by Executive Chef Nicole LoBue. After dinner, continue the fun with dancing and drinking, or simply step outside to watch the sun set on our lush private garden filled with over 14,000 perennials. Whatever you decide, The Caboose is the space to enjoy all the modern amenities you’ve come to expect from a venue like ours — including killer sound and PA systems and aesthetic finishes like warm woods, cool marbles and stone, and hand-finished metals, all accomplished without sacrificing our commitment to being 100% carbon-neutral — because we love our planet as much as we do our guests.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Both indoor and outdoor options
  • Picturesque garden backdrop
  • Has a fun and festive vibe

Venue considerations

  • Not wheelchair accessible
  • Best for events with big guest lists
  • No on-site guest accommodations
We had a roundabout journey to The Caboose, but I couldn't be happier that it's where we landed for our wedding in September '25. From the jump, we appreciated the gorgeous space, their commitment to doing right by the planet, and the affiliation with Kitty's—some of our favorite food in Hudson. The combination of a beautiful garden and stunning indoor space made us feel like we were safe no matter the weather. Every time we visited, the garden got better. We loved how lush and colorful it was for our day. We enjoyed working with Caitlin, the venue manager. She was creative and flexible and willing to work with us to do a few things a little differently (like have the ceremony in a different spot in the garden). The food was truly incredible—we still have people raving about it! We appreciated that because we were right on the edge seasonally, we were able to choose the summer menu instead of the one for fall, which felt just right for the day's weather and feeling. Because we had our tasting in February, we weren't able to try most of the items we had, but we trusted we were in good hands—and we definitely were. The kitchen team was also incredibly accommodating with our guest's dietary restrictions—everyone felt very cared for, which is what we hoped for the most! We had live music as well as a DJ and everything sounded truly great in the space. The staff working on our day was SO kind and helpful—people made mention of how warm everyone was, too. I saw many a chitchat at the bar, just because they were so lovely! Just a note, too, that while The Caboose was pricey, we were totally amazed by the value and all that they take care of. We looked at dozens of venues—from full-service spots to DIY operations—and kept coming back to the mix of creativity, value, and quality that The Caboose offered. The fact that they take care of the food, drinks, furniture rentals, lighting, sound system, and staff—and all at such a high caliber—unheard of! We truly couldn't have done it without them.

The Hudson Milliner was a fantastic venue for our wedding. It’s a beautiful space with tons of character and charm. There is genuinely moving art everywhere and great natural light which you will want for beautiful photos. Charlotta and Shannon were extremely helpful and welcoming. They answered all of our questions and gave us the lay of the land in Hudson. We had our wedding brunch at a very nice French restaurant on their suggestion. I would 100% do it all again with The Hudson Milliner and suggest you do too.

I was really worried about being able to turn a blank space into my dream night but they made it happen easily. I'll never forget the feeling of seeing it all set up for the first time. The best part is that there are zero time restrictions on the space. Which for us, meant an after-party until 3am :)

Skylark Music 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Hudson, NY

Jesse and Justin have been playing music together since they met performing in a band at Disneyland in 2001. After moving to Beacon, NY around the same time, it made sense to start an official wedding music business to share their love of music with some of the many happy couples getting married in the Hudson Valley. One thing they love about playing music for weddings is the variety that is required of them. Every gig is different and they all happen on one of the happiest days of the clients' lives!

Awarded Best of Zola
We could not have been happier with Skylark Music they were incredible to work with! From the very beginning, Justin spent months helping us think through every detail—offering great suggestions and thoughtful input that really helped set the tone for each part of the day. For our wedding, we had the Skylark ensemble play live music during the ceremony and cocktail hour, and they were absolutely fantastic. The live jazz and covers created the perfect atmosphere—elegant but still relaxed and fun. When it was time for dinner and the reception, Justin seamlessly transitioned to his DJ setup, keeping the energy flowing with an amazing mix of songs that got everyone on the dance floor. Having both live music and a DJ through Skylark was one of the best decisions we made—it gave us the best of both worlds and made the whole evening feel special and dynamic. We can’t recommend Justin and Skylark Music enough!

Bekah was such a pleasure to work with. I really wanted a makeup artist that used cleaner products and who would be able to give me a soft almost “natural” look while staying within my budget and Bekah delivered. Not only did I LOVE how she did my and all my bridesmaids makeup, I also really enjoyed her company. Bekah was super easy to communicate with and I couldn’t recommend her enough. 10/10 for anyone getting married in the Hudson valley.

Heather is so creative, thoughtful and detail-oriented - her expertise about florals and decor setup was on full display both on the planning side as well as, of course, on the wedding day itself.

Our wedding weekend at Black Walnut Farm was nothing short of extraordinary. I had always dreamed of more than just a single day or a few hours of celebration. I imagined a full weekend surrounded by our favorite people, celebrating a love I had hoped for my entire life. Black Walnut Farm made that dream a reality in the most magical way. My fiancé and I got engaged in June 2024 and waited until August to begin planning so we could savor being engaged. Black Walnut Farm was our first venue visit. During their open house, we explored the property while enjoying signature cocktails and bites, and we immediately felt at home meeting Jim. His warmth, charisma, and genuine spirit set the tone for everything that followed. The estate is breathtaking. Acres of beauty, an enchanting forest, whimsical gardens, and a farmhouse filled with stunning, eclectic antiques. Within minutes, we knew our search was over. As we left, Jim smiled, saying he could tell we had found “the one.” The planning process was seamless and stress-free. As someone who goes with the flow, I was amazed by how organized and supportive the team was. Timelines, documents, and communication were clear and thoughtful. Sarah, co-owner and Jim’s partner, made the experience effortless. While the venue is largely a la carte, Sarah provides a curated list of trusted vendors so you never feel lost. Together, Sarah and Jim are an unmatched team. We chose the weekend package, allowing us and six guests to stay in the farmhouse from Thursday through Monday. Walking in felt like stepping into a dream. We were greeted with a handwritten card, a charcuterie board, and champagne. Fresh banana bread, muffins, and cookies were displayed, the refrigerator stocked with snacks, drinks, and s’mores essentials, and a bar cart held homemade old fashioneds. Every room included robes and fresh water by the bedside, and fireplaces were ready with stacked firewood. Our honeymoon suite was spacious and cozy, with its own fireplace, sitting area, and clawfoot tub. Black Walnut Farm even created a custom flag with our names and named a tree in our honor, a meaningful and unforgettable touch. On Friday evening, we hosted our rehearsal dinner for fifty-five guests in the barn, which perfectly blends rustic elegance with antique details and warmth. The staff’s pride and attention to detail were evident, and Jim, Sarah, or Lindsey were always nearby to ensure everything ran smoothly. After dinner, my bridesmaids and I returned to the farmhouse for a cozy night by the fire watching Father of the Bride. Our wedding day was pure magic. We got ready together in a sun-filled room, sharing laughter and happy tears. We exchanged vows in the forest, a fairytale setting. The celebration continued in the barn with cocktail hour, dinner, dancing, and dessert. Guests loved the barn loft, complete with a photo booth and a phone for leaving messages. Although the weather prevented our planned bonfire hour, Sarah and Jim graciously extended our time in the barn, ensuring the night remained just as special. This weekend was the best experience of our lives. Our friends and family still talk about how incredible it was. We are endlessly grateful to Sarah, Jim, Miss Lily, and the entire Black Walnut Farm team for creating a wedding weekend we will cherish forever.

Working with Scott and his band was the best decision we made on our wedding day. We had a very specific vision where we would have a jazz quartet during the cocktail hour and have the pianist and bassist play classical music during the cocktail hour. While this was an atypical setup (usually Cello and Piano), Scott's band was up to the challenge and they absolutely nailed it! I even got to get up and sing a Sinatra standard, and play a tune on trumpet with the cocktail band to my now wife! What great energy the group had, they welcomed me in with open arms and smiles, and we really couldn't have asked for a more perfect day!

The Garrison was the perfect venue for our winter wedding. Annie was incredible for all of the coordination, and we loved working with our day-of attendant, Fatima, who made the entire event personal, seamless and low maintenance. From the very beginning, their communication was quick, easy and incredibly helpful as we planned our big day. The views both inside and outside the venue were absolutely breathtaking. The Garrison team created an authentic and memorable experience that we will cherish forever. We couldn't have imagined getting married anywhere else and recommend them to everyone!

We absolutely loved working with Dahlia Events for our wedding. Deliece was our main point of contact, and she was truly a joy and an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. She took care of everything we needed, and so much more than we even knew to ask for. Deliece came prepared with spreadsheets, thoughtful questions, and clear guidance that helped us navigate decisions we didn’t even realize we needed to make, but that proved to be essential. Her organization and attention to detail made the entire planning process feel manageable and well-supported. She handled communication with all of our vendors seamlessly and always made us feel completely taken care of, no matter the detail. When a few hiccups came up along the way, she addressed them with such ease, professionalism, and genuine empathy that we never felt stressed or worried. Beyond her incredible competence, Deliece also brought the warmest, most positive energy, our calls were always something we genuinely looked forward to. And on the wedding day itself, nothing was missed (and I truly mean nothing). Everything ran so smoothly, allowing us to fully enjoy the day without a single concern. We cannot recommend Dahlia Events highly enough. Working with Deliece was one of the very best decisions we made for our wedding.

I can’t recommend Jena highly enough!! I first met her when she did my best friend’s makeup, and I knew right then that I wanted her to be part of my own wedding day. Her style is exactly what I was looking for; natural, soft, elevated, but most importantly, it felt like me. As someone who doesn’t typically wear a lot of makeup, I wanted to feel confident and photo-ready without feeling overdone, and Jena struck that balance perfectly. From the trial to the wedding day, Jena was warm, calming, and genuinely interested in understanding what I wanted. She asked thoughtful questions, welcomed feedback, and made sure we had a clear, comfortable plan for the morning of the wedding. She even traveled from the Hudson Valley into NYC to be with us that day, something I was so grateful for. The morning of my wedding, she felt like another friend in the room; easy to talk to, grounding, and full of positive energy. She did makeup for me, my mom, my mother-in-law, my sister, and sister-in-law, and everyone looked and felt beautiful!! Our makeup lasted from 7am through the very last dance, and I never once felt like I needed a touch-up. If you're considering Jena, truly don’t hesitate! She’s talented, kind, and committed to making you feel like the best version of yourself!!

Billiam and his team did a superb job hosting our wedding. My wife is particular about things and our wedding was no exception. Billiam was patient and professional in helping her vision become a reality. I hope I can convince someone else to get married here so I can go through the experience from the other side one day. Billiam, we are so grateful for all that you and your team did for us to make our day so special. It's clear that you have a passion for what you do and it is reflected in your work.

From the moment I met Justine, I knew Mills Memories was an awesome wedding planner. She listened to the very creative couple on their ideas and helped plan each one to make it happen. The information she shared with me as a fellow vendor was a blessing! It was only the details that mattered, direct, to the point, no fluff, beautifully outlined and easy to understand. You want someone like her to focus on essential information without all the unnecessary distractions. I appreciate this, as it's completely different and better than most planners I've worked with.
