Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I got married at Inns of Aurora in June and I cannot say enough great things about the property, the staff, our contacts Lindsey and Kim, the food, and every piece of the weekend. We knew we wanted to get married in the Finger Lakes and looked at a few venues, but nothing compared to Inns. We loved the intimate nature of the property, the wedding and reception spaces, the accommodations, the convenience of Fargo across the street for the after party, and the relaxed yet elevated vibe. Lindsey and Kim were incredible to work with - we felt both understood what we were looking for and wanted to do and were a joy to work with. During the wedding weekend, Kim was absolutely amazing - anticipating our every need, offering to take our dog out during our wedding if needed, and checking in on me throughout the welcome party and reception to see if I needed anything (often already prepared with my drink of choice in hand in case I needed a refill). The food was incredible - our guests all remarked about the food and service the entire weekend. Our guests loved spending the weekend in Aurora - walking to the Village Market to grab a coffee in the morning, enjoying the spa, wineries and breweries, just enjoying time with friends on the gorgeous properties, having lunch at Fargo, etc. Overall this is a phenomenal property and venue - they deliver an exceptional level of service and I can't recommend it enough. Two vendors to call out - Metropolitan Players was the wedding band of our dreams and Laura of Laura Rose Photography was truly the best (a pleasure to work with, incredible energy on the day of, and stunning photos). We look forward to coming back to Inns for many years to come!

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.

In 2007, Miles and May Furniture Works moved their production to the first story and began renovations on the previously unoccupied building. Since 2010, the second-floor gallery space has been in use for art shows, concerts, and events.

The Cracker Factory was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the initial communication via email, which was always prompt and helpful, to the day-of execution, the staff at The Cracker Factory exceeded our expectations. Their beautiful, industrial space provided the ideal backdrop for our ceremony and reception. The team worked closely with us to develop the perfect layout, ensuring the flow of the event went smoothly. On the day, the staff assisted with vendor entry and attended to countless details to keep everything running seamlessly. We were especially impressed by the stunning vines along the side of the building, which had turned a vibrant red color for the fall, adding to the already gorgeous ambiance. Overall, The Cracker Factory was the perfect choice for our wedding, and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for a unique and well-executed event space.

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!!

We arrived the day before and she let us set up the whole barn/ space to our liking. She let us customize everything and worked with our timeline. She really went above and beyond for our 100 person wedding. Our guests say it was the most fun they have ever had. She really took care of us and i would highly recommend Izzos for your wedding... also the wine is REALLY good.

  • All-inclusive

  • Starts at $6,000

Nestled in this rich, historic landscape, Springside Inn continues to offer the best of Finger Lakes' atmosphere and hospitality. Springside Inn is located across the road from the western shore of Owasco Lake, one of the Finger Lakes. Every event held at Springside Inn is guaranteed to be as unique and unforgettable as the couple being celebrated.

I’m getting emotional just writing this, but Springside Inn truly made our wedding dreams come true. The facility itself is STUNNING and so versatile!!! We decided to have our ceremony in The Grove (beautiful outdoor area surrounded by trees) and our reception in the ballroom, but there are so many options and different ways to use the venue that no 2 weddings are alike. The rooms we got to stay in too are also absolutely gorgeous. Antique charm but state of the art amenities. I am not exaggerating when I say the food and cake were some of the best things I’ve ever eaten in my 29 years of existence. So customizable and delicious! The chef and catering staff are so nice and talented. And last by certainly NOT least…the site coordinator, Chris, is an absolute angel. As soon as we booked the venue, she guided us EVERY step of the way with planning. She is an absolute expert on all things wedding planning and ensured the day went so smoothly. She is such a calm presence and was so attentive, helpful, reassuring, and just overall one of the nicest human beings I’ve ever met!!! I feel like I will never be able to express my gratitude for her enough. Springside Inn is an absolute dream in every shape or form and I could not recommend them enough Love, Jacqui and James Married 9/28/24

As the premiere sustainable wedding venue in the Finger Lakes, we focus on creating unforgettable memories for you and your guests, AND being kind to the planet.

Our stunning countryside views and historic farm buildings offer unique opportunities to create a charming and inviting venue for an intimate gathering or lavish event only a short drive outside of Ithaca, NY. Let us capture your imagination and help make your event dream a reality!

Highly recommended ! We are so over the moon happy that we were able to celebrate our rehearsal dinner at Osmica farm for a little over 100 guests. Can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience! Our families were so impressed by the natural, rustic and inviting feel of the farm! The owners, Allie and Kurt were truly a joy to work with! They were so responsive and helped us so beautifully plan every detail of our day! They helped us with our table decorations, beautiful flower arrangements and other rentals! The list of the vendors they provided were also so nice and responsive and easy to work with. They truly made our experience completely stress free! The farm has the most stunning sunset and lots of space indoors and outdoors for kids and adults to enjoy lawn games. And the most meaningful thing is that Allie and Kurt were so friendly and introduced themselves to our guests, everyone loved them. They were available and ready to help from the first to the last minute. We will definitely visit and stay at their beautiful bed and breakfast in the future.

Inn At Taughannock Falls 

5.0

Trumansburg, NY
  • Up to 300 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $6,000

This luxury boutique hotel overlooks Cayuga Lake and is just 9 miles from Ithaca, New York, in the heart of the Finger Lakes Wine Trail. The estate combines modern accommodations, private guest houses, and a majestic Victorian Inn next to one of the tallest waterfalls in the country. The Inn at Taughannock has three on-site wedding venues, including a new one-acre wedding garden. The wedding garden, named "Enchantment", has a 100' x 60' translucent sailcloth tent, a 42' alabaster bar, and a dry-stack stone fire place that it took four masons one year to build. In addition to these marvelous features there are also three fire-pits on site, one of which is cantilevered and hangs above the outer wall over looking Cayuga Lake. Our full service event planning team is ready to provide you with a concierge style service as they help you navigate every facet of the wedding planning journey. This all inclusive venue is the perfect location for the next piece of your history.

If you're considering planning your wedding at the Inn at Taughannock Falls, do it - this place is pure magic. I am wholeheartedly convinced that there is no venue that compares to the Enchantment garden or offers the wedding planning experience that you get at the Inn. The planners are top-notch, incredibly personable, thoughtful, detail-oriented and help bring your dream wedding to life. At the Inn, customization is limitless - a blank canvas (well, if you consider a blank canvas to be gorgeous gardens, sprawling staircase, and stunning tent) awaits. We worked with Tania-lynn who was an absolute rockstar and made our wildest dreams come to life. Every 'I" was dotted and every "T" was crossed. We didn't have a worry in the world when we walked onto the grounds on our wedding day. I can't speak more highly about the experience, staff, accommodations, and wedding day (and I've been dreaming about this day since I was a little girl!). What an honor it was to have our wedding at the Inn at Taughannock Falls. Thank you to the amazing planners and staff that made our wedding day the best day of our lives.

Imagine yourself celebrating with family & friends at one of the most picturesque locations in the Finger Lakes, where exquisite catering and meticulous service combine to create magical, memorable events. Host an intimately-scaled outdoor wedding on our lushly landscaped waterfront patio with the sun setting over Seneca Lake as your backdrop. Or celebrate in sophisticated style in our elegant Harbor Ballroom. Our professional wedding consultant will make sure that no detail is overlooked and will advise on the array of delicious dining options, from plated sit-down dinners to elaborate buffets. 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.
