The flowers and appeal of the venue is stunning in the spring and summer. For it being a small venue, there are still tons of different photo opportunities.

All of my family and friends raved about how spectacular the wedding was. Where do I start with the food...EVERYTHING was phenomenal. My only regret was I didn't go back for seconds. Harold orchestrated a dream come true wedding that flowed seamlessly. I also have to give props to Trisha.

We had our wedding at Villa Barone Manor, and it was an absolute dream from start to finish! The level of service and attention to detail was truly incredible — they thought of everything and made sure the entire night ran perfectly. The ballroom was stunning, the food was beyond amazing, and so many of our guests told us it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had. Everyone raved about how delicious everything was (especially the cake — people are still talking about it!) and how full and happy they were by the end of the night. Nick, one of the owners, was amazing to work with from the very beginning. He gave us great guidance throughout the planning process, was always professional and attentive, and on the day of the wedding he made sure everything was perfect. What stood out most was how he treated us like family — his warmth and care truly made the experience unforgettable. Another big shoutout to my bridal assistant, Luciana, who was an absolute lifesaver. She helped me with everything I needed and made sure I felt completely taken care of all night. The maître d’s were also fantastic, keeping us updated on timing and making sure every detail flowed seamlessly. We are so grateful to the entire team at Villa Barone Manor for helping make our wedding everything we dreamed of and more. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough to anyone looking for a venue that delivers exceptional service, stunning spaces, and an unforgettable experience!
