Choosing a wedding venue is one of the biggest decisions you'll make during the planning process and I can confidently say, choosing Swan Lake Caterers was the best decision we made. I’m so excited to write this review so other couples can have a similarly incredible experience! I looked everywhere around the tri-state area from Jersey, to Connecticut, all the boroughs (including Staten Island!!) to all over Long Island. Swan Lake Caterers was actually the first venue I visited, and I fell in love instantly. But, like many brides, I was indecisive. I kept searching, trying to be sure… and after every other tour, I kept coming back to Swan Lake in my heart, I had a feeling it was the one! And it absolutely was. The entire day was seamless, magical, and full of joy. One of the most touching things someone said to me was from my sister. She told me, “So many brides can’t enjoy their wedding day because there’s so much going on but we could see in your face how carefree and happy you were. You were truly having fun” This was in large part due to Swan Lake Caterers allowing me to focus on my husband, family and friends. They gave us peace of mind, beautiful surroundings, and the freedom to be fully present in every moment. The food was out of this world, our guests are still talking about it! Sophia and Charlie really catered to what we wanted and to our guests’ dietary needs! Including three of our vegan family members. The venue itself was picture perfect. It was elegant, romantic, and timeless! One of my guests said it looked like it was out of a Disney movie. Elena, our maitre-d worked with me in the months leading up to the wedding to make sure the decor and vibe was everything we wanted. She knocked it out of the park! Even though it was a little chilly, and started to drizzle, Sophia was in contact with us in the week leading up to it, to make sure everyone was comfortable temperature wise. They were so unimaginably attentive to us! The day of, Elena made sure that even without a rehearsal everything went off without a hitch. Speaking of attentiveness, Jill, my bridal attendant, was simply amazing. She made sure we had drinks in our hand, food on our plates, helped me fix the train on my dress a million and one times. I’m pretty sure they helped one of my guests fix a ripped dress? Seriously. People said it was one of the best weddings they’ve been to! If you're thinking about getting married here, stop thinking and just say YES. I can’t express how incredibly grateful I am to Swan Lake Caterers and would love it for every other couple (and their guests) to have a similar experience!

We got married at sea cliff on 3/21. We loved that the venue was different from the run of the mill ballroom we kept seeing when we were looking for a space. The windows overlooking the water, the outdoor cocktail hour space, the details in the architecture - it’s all beautiful and magical. The bride/groom suites and bathrooms were just redone and were perfect. We had so many people tell us that the cocktail hour and dinner were the best they’ve had at a wedding. Ian is absolutely amazing at what he does and handled every detail. He made sure that I didn’t have to worry or think about a thing the day of. They were detail oriented and thoughtful in decorating the space for us. The whole staff were so welcoming and friendly throughout. Choosing Sea Cliff was the best decision we could have made and we’re so thankful for their team, who made our day absolutely perfect. 1000% recommend.

We had the most amazing wedding at The Mansion at Oyster Bay in October 2024! We had our full wedding (ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, afterparty) all at the mansion and the day was flawless and our guests can't say enough about how amazing everything was! The food, drinks and atmosphere were all amazing and the staff was so kind, attentive and warm, not only to just us as the couple, but to all of our guests. The team at the mansion was very communicative throughout the entire wedding planning process, and on the day of they knew exactly how we wanted the day to run and they pulled it off without any hiccups or problems! Our wedding was outside and it was a gorgeous day, but I also would have been happy if we needed to do the ceremony inside because the decor is so stunning. All of my pictures look amazing because the mansion is such a stunning backdrop. I highly recommend you have your wedding here!!

They will make the day go by so stress-free and help you structure everything ahead of time that you will be able to fully enjoy yourself without a worry. Next, the venue effortlessly balances elegance and class without feeling stuffy or dated. I’m almost sad that our wedding took place in the evening because the grounds are so beautiful and well-maintained I wanted all the guests to appreciate it as well.
