My fiancé and I are getting married at The Abbey Inn & Spa this fall. All I can say is this venue is absolutely FLAWLESS!! What makes it so flawless is how they kept the history of Peekskill tide in throughout the entire venue. Hands-down to Eileen who is the wedding coordinator at The Abbey Inn & Spa. From the moment we met her there was a connection. Any questions I had she answered with extreme confidence. She tells you how it is and I absolutely love that! She is always checking in especially with COVID-19 pandemic. Eileen is truly first in class. You will not want to look at another venue after you see The Abbey! ❤️

We could structure our day however we wanted knowing that we had no restrictions other than what time the reception had to end. Marina's love and attachment to Rokeby shone through and transferred to us. The view cannot be beat, the grounds are gorgeous and the porch is the perfect location for cocktail hour.

Fortune Valley Manor is one of a kind!! This place is an absolute dream wedding venue. Once we saw the property for the first time, we knew no other venue would compare. If you’re looking for a rustic yet still elegant indoor/outdoor space, we highly recommend this venue. The owners Kerri & Frank are the most genuine, kind people out there. They go above and beyond to give their couples everything and anything they want for their special day. We were not familiar with the area and Kerri helped us so much by connecting us to local vendors, and every vendor we chose went above and beyond for us as well. We could not imagine having our wedding anywhere else! Before we met Kerri, we thought we could plan a wedding on our own. We were so wrong. Frequent meetings with Kerri kept us on track and were essential for planning purposes. Kerri and Frank did everything to make the wedding day run as smoothly as possible, from planning to set up to keeping our timeline. We loved having all the events at the same location from ceremony to reception to after party. Chef Charlie and the catering was fantastic, a month after our wedding and our guests are still talking about it. We couldn’t have asked for a better day and we owe it all to Fortune Valley Manor.

I simply cannot say enough in praise of il Tulipano. In July 2024 we held our wedding, and we could not have asked or prayed for better than what we were given! We first met Chef Mario in early 2023 while we were researching venues and cost. We toured approximately 8 -10 venues, and we corresponded with several venues online. But our hearts and minds could not stop thinking about il Tulipano. We were in love with Chef Mario’s passion for what he does and infectious personality. He truly is the best! Not only was the venue a great price, but we felt honored to be a part of the il Tulipano family! We couldn’t have chosen a better venue for our wedding! The setting was stunning, the food incredibly delicious, and the team went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect! Our guest was blown away at how beautiful everything was. Chef Mario and his staff never hesitated to provide guidance, help and support before and during our wedding. Appetizers were so good that they were mistaken for the dinner but were surpassed by the actual main entree. The dessert room was the showstopper! Staff that treated us like family–Joellen, Mike, and Sunday were unbeatable! --and the warmth of Chef Mario made all the difference in an event that shone from the top management down to everyone involved in making our day so special, memorable, and beautiful. If you’re looking for a dream venue that delivers on ambience, service, cost and a personal touch, look no further! il Tulipano is bound to impress you and your guests. The most remarkable moment in life is when you meet the person who makes you complete. Thank you, Chef Mario, and il Tulipano!!

We were so lucky to celebrate our wedding at A Private Estate, and it truly exceeded all of our expectations. When we were searching for a venue, we visited A Private Estate in the depth of winter during a snowstorm, but even then, we immediately knew it was the perfect place for us. Ripley, the owner, was friendly and direct, and it was clear she genuinely cared about making sure people had an amazing experience. The property was beautifully maintained, and the convenience of having the Carriage House accommodation along with the barn for the reception made it a much better value than most other venues we considered. We chose to have our ceremony outside, overlooking the Hudson River, which created a breathtaking and peaceful setting for our vows. The manor house made for a stunning backdrop for our family photos, adding a touch of elegance to the day. We held our reception in the barn, which we highly recommend to other couples. The rustic charm of the space, combined with the elegance of the estate, created the perfect atmosphere for our celebration. Our mid-August wedding was made even more memorable by the beauty and ambiance of the setting. The property manager, Jack, went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect. Not only did he assist us with practical matters, like putting up blinds in the Carriage House to help our family members' kids sleep, but he also saved the day when a special bottle of wine we had intended to keep was accidentally thrown out by the caterers. Jack took it upon himself to dig it up and return it to us—an act of kindness we won’t forget. We are incredibly grateful for the hospitality and attention to detail from both Jack and Ripley. If you're looking for a venue that combines beauty with exceptional service, we wholeheartedly recommend A Private Estate.

The coordinators were wonderful in helping us set up and organize everything. If I had one piece of constructive feedback, it would just be that the head coordinator, Lindsay, was sometimes tricky to get in contact with via telephone for things like making our deposit and final payment for the venue.

This past August, my daughter Sheraden chose to get married in the vibrant city of New York. For us, it was a destination wedding, as we live just outside another great city, Toronto, Canada. After visiting several venues, we decided on Bryant Park Grill—a special place for our family, as it was a memorable stop during our first trip to NYC when Sheraden was just 11 years old. Clearly, the city left a lasting impression, as it has become a favorite destination for her over the years. Planning a wedding from a distance is no small feat, especially for us, as we have a background in event decorating and are typically very hands-on. From our very first meeting with Kristi Ohlin, the Catering Sales Manager, we knew we were in good hands. The team at Bryant Park Grill has an incredible depth of experience in hosting events, which became evident throughout the entire process. To say they are experienced is an understatement. Kristi and her team kept us on track from start to finish and recommended outstanding vendors, many of whom we chose to work with. While we brought our own creative touches—including some sizable props—we entrusted the team at Bryant Park Grill to execute our vision seamlessly. Coordinating wedding décor and logistics in a bustling city like New York is no easy task, but Kristi and her colleague, Diane Giovannone, went above and beyond to ensure everything came together perfectly. Their ability to understand and bring our ideas to life, even without our direct involvement on the day, was nothing short of extraordinary. The result? A wedding that exceeded our expectations in every way. The venue’s attention to detail, professionalism, and dedication to creating a flawless experience made for a truly magical day. Bryant Park Grill is a 5-star, white-glove service establishment that operates like a well-oiled machine. And the food—oh, the food! It was exceptional, surpassing our high expectations and delighting all of our guests. We cannot thank Kristi, Diane, and the entire Bryant Park Grill team enough for making our daughter’s wedding the most epic and memorable event of our lives. Many of our family and friends remarked that it was one of the best weddings they had ever attended. With heartfelt appreciation and love, Tanja & Dean Link, Angie & Beni Colalillo, and the Bride & Groom, Sheraden & Alessio

If you have visited the Foundry, you know how amazing and beautiful it is, but what you don’t know before you work with them is how responsive and helpful they are once you have committed to them. We had about 130 guests and used the main room for the ceremony, the greenhouse room and space outside for the cocktail hour, the courtyard for the reception dinner, the main room again for the dancing, and the greenhouse room again for the after party (11 to midnight). We also rented the Du Val suite for getting ready, and it was a superb space for the groom’s party and extended family to get ready and hang out and also has the most beautiful garden with city views. Our wedding was absolutely amazing and vindicated our immediate love for the Foundry that we developed the first time we toured it, and the Foundry staff are extremely helpful and kind.
