“The moment my husband and I walked into Timber Point, before even speaking to anyone, we knew it was the perfect spot. The beautiful property on the golf course, located right on the Great South Bay, created the ideal setting for our wedding. Lauren greeted us right away, and after booking our date we even popped a bottle of champagne to celebrate. From that day on, Lauren was incredible throughout the entire planning process. She answered every question—whether over email or in person—and always made us feel calm, confident, and cared for. Even the showcases and food tastings were wonderful experiences that made wedding planning feel exciting and special. On the day of our wedding, our maitre’d CeCe and our attendant April went above and beyond. They anticipated every need, from bringing us food and drinks all night to making sure our guests were taken care of—no request was too big or too small. Their attentiveness truly allowed us to relax and enjoy every moment. Beyond CeCe and April, the entire Timber Point staff was amazing—from the servers to the bartenders. Everything ran seamlessly, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you to everyone at Timber Point for helping make our wedding day absolutely perfect!”

“We got married 1/5/25 but had been working with Miriam for probably a year and a half before our big day. She was always so personable with us a treated us like family. Words cannot describe the love and care we felt from Jake, our maître D and Samantha, our bridal attendant, on our wedding day. We were cared for tediously and effortlessly. We felt like at ease, happy and totally relaxed. I needed Samantha and didn’t even know it, I am forever indebted to her - she could not have been more attentive and wonderful. Comforting me, assuring me, getting me where I need to be and when. So friendly, kind and amazing. Thank god for Jake. He is so special and we’re so lucky we got him as our maître D. He deems himself as a “yes man” and he is not lying. Anything you could have ever wanted from him, he’d deliver. We wanted for nothing, had wonderful direction from him all night and he took care of EVERYTHING!  The night was flawless, amazing, perfect and all we could have ever hoped for. The staff at Bourne is unmatched, we made the right choice with this venue. Guests will be in awe of the venue and talk about the food for years to come. I wish I could do it all again. Thank you Bourne mansion & staff for the best night of our lives! I don’t have all my pics back yet!”

“The Mansion at West Sayville is a gorgeous venue inside and out, and we’re so happy we chose it for our wedding. We loved the vibe from our first visit. It doesn't feel like a wedding factory, but being a Lessing's Venue you know they know what they are doing. Bob was down to earth, practical, and never tried to upsell us or pressure us into adding anything we didn’t need. Anytime I emailed Bob with a question, he responded within minutes and was always very on top of things. On the day of, everything about the wedding itself went so smoothly. Ann Marie the maitre d and Camille the bridal attendant were sweet, attentive, and so good at what they do. They set up our decor so beautifully and packed it away in an organized way at the end of the wedding. Ann Marie kept everything running smoothly, and Camille made sure we always had whatever we wanted, from food and bar drinks to our own pitcher of water when she noticed we were “the most hydrated couple she’d ever worked with” (lol). The bartender and all of our waitstaff were so attentive and wonderful too. The food was delicious and we got so many compliments about it, and about our venue in general. Our wedding day was truly unforgettable and The Mansion at West Sayville played a huge role in that!”

“From the moment my now-husband and I stepped foot into the Watermill, we knew it was the one. We had toured two other venues—both beautiful—but the instant I walked in, I felt in my heart and gut that this was where our fairytale wedding would come to life, and I was absolutely right. The venue is breathtaking inside and out, and the staff are some of the kindest, most genuine people we’ve ever met. Everyone treated us like family. We booked with Rob, who immediately made us feel we were in the best hands. That warmth extended to everyone—from Mary at the front desk to Maria and Lorraine, who helped coordinate every detail. Anytime we had a question, the team was quick to help and always went above and beyond. The morning of the wedding was hectic, but the moment I arrived, I was greeted by Sean, Olivia, Francesca, and Dom—and instantly felt calm. Sean, our maître d’, was exceptional. His reassuring presence made all the difference, especially when the weather threatened our outdoor ceremony. He handled everything seamlessly and kept us informed without ever making us feel rushed. His goal was to give us the best day of our lives, and he absolutely delivered. Our captain, Dom, was incredible. He anticipated every need and even packed up all our untouched reception food so we could enjoy it later. His attentiveness was unmatched. Our bridal attendants, Olivia and Francesca, were absolute angels. Olivia helped with my veil, bustled my dress in record time, kept me hydrated, and always found me with a drink in hand. She guided us with so much patience and kindness. Francesca was equally wonderful—always right there, fixing my dress, bringing water, and anticipating anything I might need. I didn’t have to lift a finger all day. Our families couldn’t stop raving about all four—Sean, Dom, Olivia, and Francesca. Everyone said it was the best service they had ever experienced at a wedding. And if the staff weren’t enough, the food and ambiance were just as incredible. Cocktail hour alone blew everyone away—Latin, Mediterranean, Italian, a bacon bar, a butcher block, and endless passed hors d’oeuvres. Dinner offered nine entrée options, and dessert included pastries and cookies at every table. Everything was phenomenal. Our guests are still talking nonstop about how perfect everything was—from the décor to the food to the outstanding service. I wish I could relive the entire day. Rob was right—at the Watermill, you are truly in the best hands!”
