Where to even begin to give my praises about Hotel Monaco and their event staff - not only was our night absolutely perfect but the entire process leading up to the day was seamless and stress free! You are provided a coordinator (ours was Lindsey!), who provided support (planning, advice, organization, instant communication, etc.) that went above and beyond my expectations. There is nothing quite as valuable as knowing before hand that your big day is taken care of and you can enjoy your day without a worry. Additionally, every guest raved about the food and drinks. The venue being at a hotel is obviously beyond convenient, did not need to set up/pay for extra transportation and we were treated like royalty all weekend long at the hotel! Stunning photos all around the hotel, rooftop, and downtown are just an added bonus. I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience!

We had our wedding in January 2022 at the Kelly ballroom. It met and exceeded all our expectations! The space was beautiful and clean and well organized. No detail was missed. They helped set up what we couldn’t and had everything beautiful and perfect when we walked in. The food was AMAZING! Our guests were impressed with all the food! Our bartenders were quick and so friendly. They worked well collaboratively with our photographer and DJ. They truly made such a stressful day into an easy, flowing, smooth, beautiful day!! I’d recommend over and over again. The Kelly ballroom and that day will forever be an extremely special memory for our family!

I cannot recommend Nick's Place highly enough - seriously, if you're planning ANY event in the Erie area, PLEASE consider it. I had been to a couple weddings there before, and both couples raved about the staff, but you can't truly know how incredibly wonderful and helpful they are until you book with them yourself! Truly the best service, and such a gorgeous venue. I was slightly hesitant to tour because I didn't want our wedding to blend in with our other friends' who got married there, but with our vision and special touches, and Katie and her team's guidance and execution, every wedding is so uniquely yours we couldn't be happier with how everything went. I'm certain I will miss something amazing here because there was SO much, but these top three stand out for me: 1. The food was excellent. Many guests have texted me saying they're still thinking about it a week later. Also, we have multiple guests with allergies. We fully expected those guests to just not put those items on their plates and eat the rest. Nick's said, we can do better than that and made special dishes for five or so guests (like salmon and sweet potato for my mom, mashed potatoes pulled aside before garlic was added, and green beans plated before mushrooms added, and storing and delivering special gluten free desserts for guests needing them). They were SO considerate in making sure every guest got the full experience of our wedding and enjoyed every bite. 2. The above-and-beyond hospitality went so far beyond food, too. One guest was on crutches and in pain and the Nick's team brought her ice for her injury. My family was coming from out of state and allowed them to stay in the Inn four nights, compared to the normal 1-2 nights. By the way, the Inn team is incredible too! Every time we walked by the desk they asked how we were doing and if they could get us anything. They checked on us in our rooms getting ready, and in the kitchen while having meals with our family. The whole wedding and extended weekend, both teams not only made sure my husband and I had everything we needed at all times, but also every wedding party member, and all our parents/grandparents. Truly incredible service. 3. Finally, the planning and coordination services that is included in the booking is invaluable! Other venues charge so much for that, or you have to find your own external person. Katie met with us for hours in advance to look at our Pinterest board, talk through our ceremony readings, talk about our families, and find ways to honor everyone and every tradition, with decor that reflects our style. Big bonus: being able to borrow some of their decor is huge for budget- AND environmentally-conscious newlyweds like us. AND, being able to trust their team to set up our dream decor and not have to worry about taking off extra time from work and adding extra stress to our plates to set it all up ourselves day-before (and tear it all down after the wedding) allowed us to be present with family and enjoy each other's company. I've heard from so many newlyweds and to-bes about how their wedding was more stressful than enjoyable, and that was NOT our situation at all. It truly was the Best Day Ever, like Katie said every time we spoke. I cannot imagine a better venue and team and I'm so glad we got to celebrate the start of our forever here. THANK YOU KATIE, SARAH, AND THE ENTIRE NICK'S PLACE TEAM!!! You are truly the best!!!!

She was responsive, organized, and genuinely kind throughout the entire planning process, which took so much stress off our shoulders. The space itself is stunning with high-quality details everywhere you look, but what really made our day special was having Theresa as our wedding coordinator.

I knew that we wanted a rustic wedding, but I did not like the idea of a barn wedding. I wanted something more elegant but still relaxed. My fiancé (now husband) came across the Yellow House online and set up a tour. It is absolutely stunning - built in 1857 and wonderfully maintained. My husband and I live in Cleveland, and do not a connection to Erie, but the two-hour distance was no problem for our guests, and Erie vendors are very inexpensive to work with - added bonus! I think our entire wedding would cost triple if we tried in Cleveland, but there is nothing like the Yellow House in our area. I would definitely recommend the Yellow House to anyone looking for a truly unique venue.

Knotted Pines was the perfect venue for our wedding. Wedding venues are incredibly expensive these days, and the value we received for the price was unmatched by anywhere else we looked. The family that owns Knotted Pines were very accommodating, down to earth, and very kind in all of our interactions. They went above and beyond to ensure that we had what we needed. As for the venue itself? Gorgeous. Our wedding was in June and while we knew that Western PA is always lush and green at that time of year, Knotted Pines was absolutely stunning. Friends and colleagues who weren't able to attend saw our pictures and said that it looked like an actual fairy tale. The photos really speak for themselves! We wanted a slightly unconventional wedding (including camping out with our close friends after the reception), but we also wanted everyone to feel comfortable and welcomed. Knotted Pine was perfect! Even without decor, the venue is beautiful and provides a gorgeous setting of natural beauty and intimacy. Add a little bit of decoration to make it your own, and you'll have your dream venue. Knotted Pines has the resources needed for a wedding, including plentiful bathrooms, a quiet room for children (or a stressed out bride!), and is handicap accessible. They will work with you to create the wedding that *you* want. For us, it was the wedding of our dreams and it was an absolutely perfect day. (Photos by Adam Michaels Studio)
