Welcome to Gather, a charming and elegant private event venue steeped in history and restored with modern touches.

Whether you're planning a wedding, corporate event, or special celebration, Gather provides a picturesque and versatile setting to make your vision come to life. We invite you to explore the beauty and possibilities of Gather for your next event.

In May 2024, my husband and I had a civil ceremony and wanted to follow that with a large dinner for just our families to get together and celebrate us. We wanted to find a small spacious venue that would allow us to host 35 members of our family for a buffet dinner and just celebrate talk and enjoy each other‘s company. Gather exceeded all of our expectations when it comes to the actual venue. Everyone we spoke to after our wedding said how much they loved the space and all that it had to offer. The very best part of holding our celebration at Gather was working with Cara! Cara is so kind and knowledgeable, and took the time to help us decide on all the little elements that we would incorporate in our celebration that made the whole event so special. Our families noticed the exceptional service AND smile Cara had on her face when assisting and said how lucky we were to have found a venue and owner that were so great. Cara made many suggestions when it came to our set up and itinerary that we hadn’t even thought of and everything came out so nice. She also recommended Farmhouse Table catering to us after having worked with them in the past, and the two companies worked together seamlessly to make everything come together in such a great way. Clearly, I could go on and on about how wonderful of an experience we had hosting our wedding celebration at Gather!

Cobblestone Creek Country Club 

5.0

Victor, NY
  • Up to 200 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

Cobblestone Creek Country Club is a wedding venue located In Victor, New York. This elegant property offers breathtaking views of the estate's landscaped golf club, lakes, and flower-lined bridges that lead up to the grounds. From the Course to the Clubhouse, Cobblestone offers a comfortable, family-oriented atmosphere for our Members and their guests to enjoy. It’s our people who make the difference, both members and staff.

Staff: Between our tour/food tasting and our wedding day, there was a change in staff and we ultimately lost our planner and day of coordinator. The manager of the club was the most helpful and genuine person we had worked with out of all our vendors. Cheol was extremely responsive, communicative, flexible, generous, and just wanted to do anything he could to make sure our day was amazing. Day of, our bartenders and servers were amazing and ended up dancing with us at the end of the night after taking care of us all day - they were SO fun and sweet! Food/Beverages: I cannot stress this enough - the food was INCREDIBLE! We struggled with narrowing down what we wanted because everything was just too good. We went with Filet of Sirloin with a merlot shallot reduction, chicken piccata, seafood stuffed sole, and a cauliflower alfredo - all were unbelievably delicious and guests are still raving about how much they enjoyed their meals. My husband and I got the Kings Plate so we had a little of everything and it was SO good. For appetizers during cocktail hour, we had a charcuterie display, meatballs, bacon-wrapped scallops, grilled cheese shooters, fried ravioli, and a stuffed risotto ball - all were loved by guests… I don’t think anything went to waste. The servers also made sure to set aside appetizers for us while we were busy taking photos so even though we didn’t attend our cocktail hour, they made sure we got to enjoy them! Our late night snack was in-house as well, and they made mini garbage plates which were a big hit! We wanted to make sure out of state guests had a glimpse of the Rochester garbage plate experience (it also helped soak up the alcohol from the day haha) The location: We fell in love with the grounds of the venue, as it’s on gorgeous golf course with bridges, fountains, rolling hills in the background, and lots of trees, so our fall wedding would be very colorful! I so desperately wish it hadn’t been so cold and rainy on our wedding day so it could have been held outside, but they have a room on the side of the venue for indoor ceremonies. The room is a bit on the smaller side, but did fit our 100 guests. Something I would have done differently is to have gotten an aisle runner as my veil did catch on the rug a bit (but didn’t fall out!) Decorations: The venue also has an inventory of decor that you’re able to use for your wedding day, most of which is free but there is a small fee for some items. I think the only thing we needed to pay for was renting chargers which was only 50 cents/plate. They also provided all the linen at no additional cost as well as the arch for our ceremony. The staff also does an inventory drop of any decor you have for the day of where you’ll walk through your vision of the day, and they will do EVERYTHING for you! This was amazing because I had a lot of decor that I brought in with not a ton of vision, just a vibe, and they took it and ran with it beautifully! Our guests were blown away with the decor! Overall, this venue had everything we needed to have an amazing day and they were so flexible and accommodating! We were able to create our own packages and negotiate on pricing - something I wasn’t sure was allowed in the industry! Our guests are still raving about how they had such an amazing time. Cheol has been amazing and we’ve still kept in touch.

Kin Event Space 

5.0

Rochester, NY
  • Up to 130 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor

Kin is the hot spot for bashes big and small. Situated in a former shipping warehouse at the edge of Rochester’s historic NOTA district, our event space is open and modern, with intriguing hints of its industrial past. We welcome parties of all sizes, for any occasion. To accommodate all styles, the space isn’t overly “designed.” We’ve intentionally left it a blank canvas, so to speak. We offer the opportunity to customize everything on your big day from seating to sips and snacks. We work closely with the area’s leading rental companies to provide the most beautiful table settings and our bar manager will design a signature drink or pair the perfect beverage service with your meal.

We held our wedding at Kin this past October, and our experience was exceptional. Kate, our coordinator, was so fantastic—attentive and ensured the day ran seamlessly. She was so good at communicating leading up to the wedding as well. Kin isn't your typical wedding venue; they prioritize individuality, listening to your vision and bringing it to life. The space is a beautiful blank canvas and the location is ideal as it’s right off East Ave and very close to hotels. Both Kin and Root, owned by Kristen, excel in quality and service. Kristen's holistic approach to food was evident, making it a highlight of our day. Honestly, the staff was just beyond incredible. They made the day by bringing positive energy and ensuring everything was perfect. Would highly recommend!!

A professional wedding consultant guides the process every step of the way, from choosing the perfect blooms to selecting from various priced menu options. The hotels' expansive landscaped waterfront grounds and elegant interiors lend themselves to on-site ceremonies and extended celebrations making for true destination weddings.

Aside from the beauty of the lake and the hotel, this place did it all for us. Any extra things we wanted for the wedding or reception just needed to be dropped off and the event coordinators took care of the rest. The coordinator we met with was great with communication through email. We really enjoyed our dinner tasting - the food was amazing! The coordinators made the day run so smoothly. The room for the cocktail hour was set up wonderfully. Table settings are included with the package and the candles looked perfect. We felt secure in knowing we could easily move the ceremony inside with any weather concerns. The landscaping/greenery is so well taken care of, it looked fantastic for our ceremony outside on the patio. The hotel staff set up, serve, and clean up - it made for a very relaxing weekend. Our hotel room was incredible also. The hotel was generous with leaving little surprises and gifts for us when we arrived to our room. It was all worth the price.
