“I truly can't say enough good things about our experience at The Vineyards at Aquebogue. From our very first tour, we were blown away, not just by how beautiful the venue is, but by the exceptional service we received from Kate and Emily. Kate alone made such an incredible impression during that first visit that we immediately knew this was the place for us. Throughout the entire planning process, both Kate and Emily went above and beyond. They were always accommodating, responsive, and genuinely kind. No question was too small, and no request was ever a problem. Their professionalism and warmth made what could have been a stressful experience feel effortless. On the day of our wedding, they made sure everything ran perfectly. We were able to truly relax and enjoy every moment, knowing they had everything under control. The venue looked absolutely stunning, the service was impeccable and our guests are still raving about how amazing it was! Thanks to The Vineyards at Aquebogue and their outstanding team, our wedding day was everything we dreamed of and more. We couldn’t have imagined getting married anywhere else. If you're looking for a breathtaking venue with a team that genuinely cares, look no further.”

“We wanted a Brooklyn wedding. Our dream was to celebrate with our family and friends in a venue that reflected the borough we love so much. But with a guest list of 140 people, we weren’t sure our dream was realistic. Thanks to Brooklyn Winery, we got to live our dream and show our guests a spectacularly good time! From the very beginning, the folks at Winery impressed us. Everyone was the perfect combination of professional and fun. Caity, the wedding sales manager, gave us our first tour. She is just a delight. The perfect person for the job. She gave us a crystal-clear overview of everything that Winery offers; no obfuscations, nothing hidden; it was so refreshing. As we chatted, we began to picture what our wedding at Winery could look like, and Caity helped us feel excited about the possibilities and confident in our decision to go with their Reserve Package. From there, we worked with Greg as our Event Manager. 10/10, 5 stars, two thumbs up… Greg deserves them all. He is such a big reason why our wedding was a success. Organized, responsive, thoughtful, flexible, and fun — Greg is everything we could have asked for and more. Seriously, the guy would even respond to every single one of my dumb questions I'd send at like 10 pm. One particular moment I need to highlight came when deciding between Winery’s vintage or bone white china. I was leaning towards bone white. Greg (politely) advocated for the vintage, and I’m so glad he did. Because he had taken the time to truly know us as a couple, he was able to steer us towards the right decision. And boy was he right. My wife was absolutely enchanted by the vintage under the candlelight on our incredible night. When you are fortunate enough to work with someone who knows what they’re doing and clearly cares, it’s such a relief! There’s simply no way we can thank Greg enough for everything he did for us. As a venue, if I had to pick one word to describe Brooklyn Winery, I’d say charming. Brooklyn Winery is so charming! And you can't help but smile when you're in such a charming space. I could see our parents and my sisters being taken aback by it, and that meant the world. And with Winery, that charm comes standard. When they say inclusive, they mean inclusive. We didn’t need to bring in tables, chairs, silverware, etc. We even got compliments on the decor decisions, with friends pointing out the magnificent tables, the vintage china I mentioned, the lovely candles, and spectacular greenery on the walls. I had to tell them — Winery did that for us! From what I could tell, Brooklyn Winery also makes life easy for outside vendors. In particular, I think the space maximizes whatever a florist brings in. In our case, I felt the venue elevated the flowers just as much as the flowers elevated the venue. Finally, I have to mention the food. An absolutely absurd number of guests have messaged us specifically to praise the food. No mention of how good I looked in a tux—just texts drooling over the butternut squash cannelloni or pimento grilled cheeses. We did hope for this reaction! We essentially bragged about the food in advance because we were so confident Winery would deliver. And they did. My wife and I give Brooklyn Winery our highest recommendation. We were thrilled with every aspect of the process and overjoyed with the result. It’s the second-best decision we’ve ever made, after deciding to say “I do,” of course!”

“One reason we chose City Winery was they are an all inclusive venue. They provide everything, set up and take down. All I had to do was drop things off and pick things up afterwards. They truly were such a big help. The other reason we chose City Winery was because it is the most stunning venue ever. The industrial/winery theme was exactly what my husband and I were looking for on our wedding day. We had our ceremony by the water, and our cocktail hour in the Courtyard. We got so many compliments on the beauty of the venue and how great all the food was. We could go on and on about all the great things City Winery has to offer. Definitely the best choice to choose them as your wedding venue.”

“Fortune Valley Manor was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the beginning, the team's communication was detailed, fast, and extremely organized. The gorgeous barn and property were exactly what we were looking for to blend our Tamil Brahmin (Hindu) wedding traditions with an Upstate New York barn feel. The wedding planning process was thorough, and Kerri and her team made sure our special day went smoothly, even studying our customs ahead of time.

“Full stop, you need to have your wedding at Bad Seed. Not only is it a stunning location with a perfect mix of indoor and outdoor space (get married/take photos in a literal apple orchard, and party it up inside a modern-with-tons-of-charm taproom) but Devin and his team were incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process. They answered our questions quickly, and were extremely flexible and helpful the week of our wedding. We were able to bring up boxes earlier in the week, set up the day before our wedding, and had private access to the grounds/taproom on our wedding day. As a queer couple, we also loved that Bad Seed partners with Big Gay Hudson Valley year-round, so we already knew they would be a queer-affirming space and our wedding day was no different. Everyone we spoke to / worked with helped make our wedding a magical experience.”

“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.”

“I don’t even know where to begin. At the beginning of our wedding journey, finding a venue was the hardest thing we could’ve done. My husband and I had a specific vision in mind and had an incredibly difficult time finding a place that we loved that was also within our budget. We’re from the LI area but knew we wished to get married upstate. We must have visited at least 10 venues. Then on our way home from one, my husband found Stablegate on a whim. We looked everything over and it had the barn that I wanted, and the catering included that my husband wanted and I said “if we visit and we like it, I’m putting a deposit down the next day.” And that’s exactly what we did. Birch Hill is an incredible family owned company with so many aspects attached to it, it was hard not to fall in the second we saw it. Over 2.5 years, I never once regretted that decision and once the wedding day came and went I knew it was the right choice for us. The food is amazing and a ton of different options (including catering to my vegan guests), the staff are incredible, and the vibes are immaculate. Our wedding coordinator Jared was really the star of the show. He was super accommodating to all of our needs, organized, and just all in all a ridiculously sweet and funny guy. When our wedding day ended up getting rained out, he came up with backup plans right on the spot that honestly fit our vibe so much more than our original plan and I really truly have Jared to thank for that. Jared treated us like we were old friends that he was just helping throughout the day. He is someone I will truly forever be the most grateful for to have on my wedding day. I have heard so many horror stories about venues, and I can honestly say this is not one of them. Stablegate Barn and the Birch Hill Catering Company have my highest recommendation. And if you need a coordinator, ask for Jared. Really truly from the bottom of my heart, thank you for an amazing wedding day.”

“My fiance' and I committed to Dutch Harvest Farm when it was nothing but a drawing on a page and acres of land covered by trees and tall grass. Many people thought we were crazy for signing a contract without seeing the finished product, but they hadn't met Laura. Laura is communicative, excited, caring and thoughtful. Our experience with her thus far has been nothing but positive, and that is difficult to say when you had to cancel your initial wedding due to COVID-19. She has helped us navigate the complex situation and continues to keep us informed even throughout the madness. Although we have not had our wedding just yet, we are ecstatic for our day at DHF and can't wait to share the venue we have seen come to fruition with as many friends and family as we can! Thank you Laura! <3”

“Magnanini is the most beautiful place to have your wedding! The day my husband and I toured it to check out venues, we were in awe of how lovely the grounds are. The price point was very reasonable too, especially compared to some other Hudson valley wineries. Courtney was very helpful during the planning process and helped us write our initial day-of timeline a few months before the big day. Having her and seeing she knew exactly what she was doing decreased my planning anxiety so much! My girls and I got ready in their cabin in the morning, then my husband and I got to stay there that night (included). Courtney made sure we were doing well all morning, even while she was setting up the whole reception for us. They have several options for where you’d like your ceremony, all so lovely. We chose the garden. The one thing I’ll say we wouldn’t have added on was the wine tasting during cocktail hour, our guests didn’t know about it so no one really used it. The food was amazing, bartenders were great, and everything turned out the way we planned. If you’re looking for a romantic winery setting, Magnanini is the place to go!”
