The Mansion at West Sayville

The Mansion at West Sayville

We could not be happier with our choice to have our wedding at The Mansion at West Sayville. From the day we went on our initial tour, we knew this was the place. We actually stood in the parking lot after our meeting with Bob and emailed him that we wanted to move forward. The entire planning process was simple and easy, with Bob being extremely reachable and informative. The space itself is perfect. We had about 150 guests and felt it was the perfect size. Our maitre'd Brett was amazing. He was personable and always right there when we needed him. He did a great job of keeping the day on track while also being able to step in for certain things we could not control. His calming energy also really helped with some pre wedding nerves that really kept everyone on course. We were so happy to have him with us. The main reason we loved the space was the "separate" dance floor. The dance floor space is in a "separate" room that is connected to the reception room by windows and glass doors. This made for a great option of an intimate dance floor, while also giving our guests the option to also take a real break. We luckily had amazing weather and were able to hold our ceremony outside which was exactly what we were hoping for. We had a perfect day and would recommend this space to anyone who viewed it.

Beautiful wedding venue you won't regret booking!

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!

I am leaving this review as mother of the bride. Overall, our experience was mixed. Bob was very easy to work with. The venue was beautiful. The food was all delicious. We did have a few complaints. We found Camille, the Maître d’ to be way too loud and way too visible. As soon as I walked in the door she greeted me with a bark. She was very rude and yelled at members of the bridal party and guests. She made an unnecessary announcement before the ceremony began, which was very strange. My daughter had no idea who the bridal attendant was until the reception was half way over, and then she only saw her for about two minutes. A lot of the cake was wasted and there was zero cake to bring home. We were expecting an exit station, which was announced at the reception. We brought up the cake issue, as well as the exit station issue. Bob was supposed to have a cake sent to my daughter to make up for the wasted cake. He was also supposed to do something for them to make up for the missing exit station issue and neither of those things were done.

I cannot praise this venue enough. Bob truly is the best in the business and was with us every step of the way. The day of my wedding Annmarie and Camille were ALWAYS by my side making sure I was okay, checking on my family and guest to ensure everyone had everything they needed. The entire staff went above and beyond and made our wedding a day truly spectacular.

My wife and I got married here in September 2026, and from the moment we stepped into the Mansion all they way up to our very last dance on our wedding day, we couldn't have picked the perfect venue. Although the weather was not great, and we had to move our ceremony inside, it still was a great wedding. Bob is a wonderful manager. He made the whole process easy. He was friendly, outgoing, and readily available whenever we had a question. They set everything up for us from beginning to end. The decor was perfect. The food was amazing. From the flowers to the DJ to the photographer, it exceeded our expectations. Our maitre d', Ann Marie, made sure that everything was perfect, and kept everyone in my bridal party in check. Our bridal attendant, Camille was so sweet. She made sure we had a drink in hand and that we were fed. I would highly recommend this venue for any special occasion.
