If you have the means to, choose Bill Miller's as your venue! My now husband and I were treated like royalty from the first tour to our wedding day. We were never without a beverage and were well fed (almost too full!). Mary was our coordinator, and was never hard to reach. We chose this venue for a few reasons: we would have the venue for the whole day to ourselves, all-inclusive with fantastic food and great drinks, a solid indoor/rain option for the ceremony, and a coordinator was included. Bill Miller's really made our day seamless and everything was incredible. Thank you Mary and everyone at Bill Miller's for a wonderful stress-free day!

I had my wedding at Anthony’s Ocean View. It was amazing and well worth every penny. Brian and Marcello are the best! I will say, the only negative aspect is that I was under the impression that only 1 wedding happened at a time - there was another wedding happening right next to us. This impacted our music, our photos and my speech was cut off because the other weddings music was so loud that the floor vibrated and I had to ask staff to do something. Other than that, the venue was beautiful, so accommodating, and food was absolutely fantastic. Would recommend Anthony’s to anyone.

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.

The venue had a few hiccups, but overall we had a lovely reception there. The outdoor space was the highlight - truly gorgeous for photos. Communication on coordination was a bit spotty at times, but the maître d', Sergio, was a god send and stepped in to ensure things flowed smoothly. The food was phenomenal, as well! So many of our guests shared it was the best wedding food they’d ever had. We did have both our bridal attendants provided by the venue disappear on us shortly after we arrived, which was inconvenient since we would have paid for our own attendants if we knew that would be the case. While parts of the indoor space is dated, it worked out beautifully with some creative decor. When weighing everything in, the Woodwinds was a spectacular venue!

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.

I am truly sad that I won’t be communicating with the Amber room staff on a regular basis anymore as over the last 10 months of wedding planning, they have felt more like family. I know for a fact that without the staff, our day would not have nearly been as perfect as it was!

Weeks later, we're still absolutely gushing over the Mansion! It was the perfect venue for our wedding. They had it all, from phenomenal staff to luxurious facilities, not to mention the stunning views. We had the pleasure of working with Alexandra(Alex) we could not have asked for a better person! Alex knew all of our family members and bridal party’s names, and was extremely personable. She went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of all night. She brought me a snack before the ceremony and continuously brought me my water all day and night (without me asking)They truly make you feel like a VIP throughout your entire day and their top notch team(along with our caterer David Alan) ensured that everything ran smoothly behind the scenes. In the early stages of planning we worked with Jessica Hess and she is extremely helpful and communicative. The mansion truly felt like home for the day. We hosted our ceremony on the vista , cocktail hour was on the terrace, and we had dinner in the East ballroom. Guests were in awe of the estate (we also lucked out with absolutely perfect weather), and how every detail was perfectly executed. Our special day was truly a dream and felt like it was out of a movie! We could not recommend the Wadsworth Mansion enough, and can't wait to return for future celebrations. It's definitely well-worth the investment and would 10/10 recommend hosting your special day here!

The Bristol Event Center made all our NYE wedding dreams come true! The venue is absolutely gorgeous, from the floor to ceiling windows, tall ceilings, huge bars, and high-end finishes. Everything was sparkling and new. Having two spacious hospitality suites upstairs to get ready in (or to touch-up during the reception) was a huge bonus. The staff at the BEC was amazing, from our initial tour to the day of. They are experts in the hospitality industry. They got back to us quickly with any question and were extremely accommodating with all our requests. Even our vendors commented how great they were to work with! Food was very important to us and the BEC nailed it! It was difficult to narrow down our hors d'oeuvres choices because everything was so amazing at the tasting. The chef was extremely accommodating to all our requests, including a huge raw bar during cocktail hour which was the talk of the wedding. Lastly, I can’t emphasize how convenient it was for our guests to stay in the hotel next door. Our guests stayed at the DoubleTree which was a 2 minute walk, or they could take one of the shuttles that staff were running back and forth. We also had our afterparty in one of the hotel ballrooms. Staff from both the BEC and Doubletree worked together to make this seamless. It will be even more convenient now that the connected Home2Suites is open for guests! Overall, our experience with the Bristol Event Center was a 1000/10. If you’re looking for a brand-new, sparkling venue with amazing service, food, and convenience, this is your place.

This venue was amazing from start to finish. We met with Brian during the planning process and he was extremely helpful and generous the whole time. When planning, since it was both our second weddings, I said I didn’t want a hall. We saw a few places but when we stepped into The Watermill we fell in love with it!! We loved the relaxed feeling, the amazing aromas, the gorgeous gardens, the spacious feeling, the friendly staff, the endless amount of food!!!! We still have people raving about the food! We had several add ons and even the staff commented that they never saw so much food served at a wedding! When arriving we were greeted by our Maitre’d Sean and Bridal Attendant Morgan. They never left our side all night. They helped with every little detail and made sure our drinks were always full, our napkins were on our laps, made sure our kids and family were happy and that we were having a great time!! Morgan even helped my Mom with her shoe and found tape to put on it so it would stop rubbing. They were amazing! We took pictures outside before the ceremony and they brought out a ton of food for the bridal party and family! They were all starving so this was great!! There was also food and champagne in our bridal suite! We did a run through rehearsal and Sean whisked us away so we wouldn’t be seen by anyone. We had amazing weather so were able to enjoy our beautiful ceremony and cocktail hour outside. The amount of food at cocktail hour was insane! We didn’t get to walk around much as we were greeting guests but from what I saw and pictures people took, the food just didn’t stop! It was the best mix of everything and the stations were set up in such a fun way! The guests loved it. They were all full already!! But more food was waiting!! Next came the reception in the Vanderbilt Room. We had 200 people and still had plenty of space to move around. That was important to me. The bar was never packed as they had several people working it. I didn’t eat much that night but they did pack it up for me to eat later and it was delicious. Our guests could not get over the amount of choices they had for their dinner. They’ve never seen anything like that before. Everyone said it was great. We chose the Viennese hour for dessert and wow!!!! My husband and I sat at our table and enjoyed watching everyone go around picking dessert. I can’t even explain all the amazing choices they provided! It was beyond what we could have imagined!! The whole dance floor was surrounded by tables of amazing desserts!! And let’s not forget the donut wall and hot pretzels on the way out!! I cannot rave enough about The Watermill and the staff!! If you are getting married here you are in excellent hands. They are experts at what they do. From booking, to drop off, to the day of, everything was flawless and I couldn’t have asked for anything better!! It was without a doubt the best wedding!!!

Venue considerations

From our initial tour of the venue, we knew that Atlantis Banquets and Events was where we wanted to have our wedding. If you are looking for an incredibly unique experience, this is it: The venue overlooks the water so guests were able to watch the sunset over the water during cocktail hour, and then, everyone moved inside to the Long Island Aquarium where they were able to dance and dine amongst the fish tanks. The aquarium transformed that evening into what felt like an enchanting underwater forest. Atlantis has an in-house caterer, and the food was exquisite. We received comments from guests who are notoriously picky eaters, and they said this was the first wedding where they’ve been able to eat (and enjoy) the food! There was a huge team working the evening of our wedding, and they kept everything running smoothly. The staff were all incredibly professional and kind throughout the night. We worked with Joan and Bryan throughout the planning process, and they were absolutely wonderful. They were responsive, detailed, and helpful throughout the year as we planned and finalized event details. They also helped us coordinate our after party AND our hotel block (both within a few steps of the venue). I truly think Atlantis Banquets and Events, and the Long Island Aquarium, is a hidden gem of event venues on Long Island. The location is stunning and conveniently located in downtown Riverhead, the venue is so unique and beautiful, the food is delicious, and the staff is wonderful. Take a tour of the venue – You won’t regret it!

I honestly forget if I already wrote a review for The Lace Factory, but recently I was reflecting on our wedding day and a few things stuck out that had me so thankful we held our reception at The Lace Factory. From the beginning of the planning process the team is extremely clear and communicative. I love a checklist and theirs is one that ensures nothing will be forgotten. Our guests are still sharing how gorgeous the venue was, how incredible the food spread was, and one detail I was surprised by, from my cousin who has been to their fair share of large celebrations. "The food was not only delicious, but they managed to serve such a large group and the food was actually hot!" This speaks to the well-oiled machine that is The Lace Factory and it must be emphasized that this machine has heart. They accomplished another feat of having my family and I not worry about the severe allergy of my dad, as they adjusted the menu accordingly, without us having to miss out on all the options. This carried over to assist some guests who also had specific dietary needs. I realize this sounds boring, but it is wonderful to know your guests are safe and fed and focus on the celebrating! The Lace Factory is a venue that can transform your wedding into something beyond your dreams while holding true to your vision.
