“Saybrook Point Resort & Marina truly became the wedding venue of our dreams. From the moment we arrived, we could feel how special and full of charm this place is. The views are stunning, the team is attentive, and every single detail felt effortless from start to finish. Abby and Meredith were incredible — they worked flawlessly with our planner, Nicole from Pretty Peony Planning, and together they made everything look seamless. We booked the guest houses for our wedding parties to get ready, and it was one of the best choices we made. The private, cozy, and beautiful spaces made the morning feel joyful, calm, and personal. It felt like home — but with more space and more luxury. It felt like we were getting ready in a real life dollhouse! Being just steps away from the venue while still having our own space was the perfect way to start the day. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the food, the setting and how flawlessly everything ran. The service was amazing (no one had to wait long for a drink!) and every detail was handled with care. If you’re looking for a picturesque location, exceptional service, delicious food and a team who truly knows how to create a magical wedding experience, Saybrook Point is it. We could not imagine a better place to begin our forever — and we can’t wait to come back and celebrate our anniversaries by the marina!”

“I just got married at this venue on 8/31/25. I was the second wedding after all the renovations made, and I had the absolute pleasure of working with Mirian and Meg. If i can rate them & their staff alone it would be 10 stars. They were so attentive, helpful, professional, and kind. They didn’t only treat me (the bride) or the groom this way, they treated everyone with the utmost respect and amazing service. Sofia was in my care, who was the sweetest person and did everything for me that day. Meg was my maître d and she was so attentive and fun to be around. She pulled strings to make sure i got the most insane pictures and i couldn’t be more grateful that i had someone as great as her attending to me and my new husband! Mirian was the head person in charge before the wedding and she made everything so easy! She dealt with my vendors and made everything possible. she made sure my vision came to life and i really appreciate everything she did for me and my fiance as she made it possible. We met with her two weeks before the wedding, she helped me organize everything and even gave me very cute last minute ideas!! Meg and Mirian were the best two people to deal with i recommend anyone getting married here to push for them for their wedding day too. You know you have amazing staff too when your whole wedding and wedding party know them by name and mention that they loved them. The food was TO DIE FOR!! at one point after pictures, meg and sofia made sure me and my husband sat down for a moment to eat, which was super helpful and thoughtful. The food was amazing, everyone complimented it. Everyone raved about how good the meat carving station, seafood and pasta stations were. Everyone raved about the entrees and dessert as well. I cannot wait to go back and visit this place. It was so special, the vibe, overlooking the water. it made my fairytale wedding come to life. It wasn’t only the venue, it was definitely the people who worked there. Mirian and Meg, thank you so very much for making my wedding so memorable for me, my husband, and our whole family.”

“We got married at the Elm City Club in early November and only have amazing things to say about the experience! Every aspect of the wedding planning execution went super smoothly working with Sandra and her team, and our guests all loved the beauty of the venue, food, and atmosphere. Would absolutely recommend for anyone planning a small to medium sized wedding in Connecticut! Be sure to book way in advance though since it fills up very fast. Pros: -Venue is gorgeous and has a tremendous amount of personality. In our opinion this is the best place to have a wedding in Downtown New Haven, way better than doing a wedding in a hotel. It even has the option of coming pre-decorated if you'd like. -Sandra and her team are extremely professional responsive. Sandra has great attention to detail and helped us plan every bit of the wedding day which helped to put our minds at ease. The club staff all did an incredible job the day of and were very professional as well. -Food was outstanding. Chicken marsala and swordfish were cooked to perfection and the dessert table was a smash hit! (One of our guests gasped when she heard there was a dessert room) -Pricing is very reasonable, especially for Connecticut! There is a lot of flexibility with pricing tiers for food drink.”

“Nuzzo’s was everything we could have dreamed of and more. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful. It’s full of twinkly lights, gorgeous mirrors, and so many thoughtful personal touches that make it feel magical. Every single one of our guests commented on how beautiful it was, and everyone had an amazing time. We had a fire pit with s’mores, cornhole, visited the animals, and there was always something fun for everyone to enjoy. The biggest reason our day was so perfect, though, was Audra. When I say she took care of everything, I truly mean everything. At one point my dress was so tight that I couldn’t bend over to change into my reception shoes, and Audra literally helped put my shoes and socks on for me. That’s the kind of person she is. She made the entire day flow flawlessly, even with the rain. She was by our side all day and night, making sure we never had to worry about a single thing. She genuinely rooted for us, kept us calm, and made sure we were actually able to enjoy our wedding day instead of stressing. She is incredibly communicative, organized, and truly an expert at what she does. No matter what came up, she always had a solution and a positive way of looking at it. She kept everyone on track; our bridal party, our families, and all of our vendors. While I only know Audra through Nuzzo’s, I can honestly say she is an amazing person who truly cares about every couple she works with. Her staff was just as incredible. You can tell Audra surrounds herself with wonderful people. I didn’t catch our bartenders’ names, but they were so kind, friendly, and helpful all night. Karyn was another standout. She kept everything moving smoothly, checked on us throughout the day, and was so incredibly kind and encouraging. What an amazing group of people. I truly could not have asked for a better wedding day, and I couldn’t recommend Nuzzo’s more. If you’re looking for a beautiful venue with a team that genuinely cares about making your day perfect, this is it.”

“There cannot be a better place to get married in New England. The inn is breathtaking with beautiful views of the sound and perfectly manicured gardens. The inn itself is perfectly New England. Just do yourself a favor and visit. But there are beautiful venues in many places. The hosts and staff made our wedding perfect. They will move mountains to support you, are incredibly honest and a dream to coordinate with. They truly make you feel like you are being hosted my family. Particularly if you are looking to bring in outside catering, choosing the Owenego will be the best wedding decision you make.”

“We got married 9/5/26 at the Lake House and it was an amazing experience start to finish. From our first meeting with the owner Paul, to email communication, meetings with Carole, everything was exceptional. They really went above and beyond for our day. They are a great team and made it easy and stress-free. The venue is so beautiful on its own, you don't have to add much! The food was incredible, the views outside were amazing and the service was top-notch. They worked closely with us to pick our menu, linens, drinks, you name it. The day of went smoothly, as Paul himself continuously checked in on us and our guests throughout the night. We gave Carole our signage and other decor and she made everything look beautiful. Our guests have had nothing but great things to say. We would highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend the Lake House and their team for a wedding or other event. We have not a single complaint, everything was flawless! We will miss working alongside such a great team! We'll always be grateful for them.”

The entire staff at Great River was amazing, so helpful, and kind. The food was delicious. All of our guests loved the venue. The French fry bar at the end of the night was a hit! From the first meeting, to the day after picking up our wedding supplies, everything was so easy and seamless. The staff at Great River decorated and set everything up with no questions asked on our side! We had complete faith that they would set everything up perfectly and they did.

From the moment we first reached out, Marla and the team were excellent communicators, always staying on top of every detail and being incredibly flexible as we planned our special day. The space was transformed from a restaurant and ski lodge into a lovely ceremony space and magical reception area. The decor outside our wedding space was decked out for Christmas, which went perfectly with our rustic winter theme and made our photographs look fantastic.

“The Barns at Wesleyan Hills was an exceptional wedding venue that exceeded our expectations. Their communication throughout the 4-year planning process was always quick, helpful, and informative, which made the entire experience seamless. The quality of their work and overall value was truly remarkable - the venue was beautifully decorated in a dark, romantic style that was well worth the investment. Our day-of coordinator, Sean, was wonderful and so helpful in ensuring we were taken care of on our special day. The only slight downside was that Sean wasn't involved in the full 4-year planning process, so he didn't have the complete picture of our vision. Overall, we highly recommend The Barns at Wesleyan Hills for any couple looking for a rustic, romantic wedding venue with a fantastic team to support them.”

“My husband and I had our wedding reception at the Grand Oak Villa on 11/17/23 and could not have asked for a better experience. From the start of our wedding planning experience, Angela and Tarin were absolutely amazing. They made my husband and I feel so welcome and treated us like family from the very beginning. About eight months before the wedding I tore my ACL and had surgery and Tarin even checked in with me to see how the surgery went and wish me well. As we got closer to the wedding, the girls made sure that everything went off without a hitch. They checked with us about our other vendors, gave us some advice, and helped us double and triple check all of our information right up to the day of the wedding. They reduced our wedding planning stresses by so much!!! The venue was absolutely gorgeous the day of our wedding, the food was beyond delicious, and all of the staff were so kind and friendly. Our personal server, Diana, was truly the star of the show on wedding day. She checked in with us at the exact right time, every time. She never made us feel like she was interrupting, but she was always there right when we needed her. And our drinks were never empty! We truly cannot say enough good things about the Grand Oak Villa and the lovely staff there. They really felt like family. Every single one of our guests remarked that the food was incredible, drinks were made perfectly, and the staff was so kind. Angela even personally greeted our parents the night of the wedding. I’d give this place ten stars if I could!”
