Unforgettable Dream Wedding at Foster's
We cannot say enough about how incredible Foster’s was for our wedding. We held our reception in the Pavilion Room, and it was absolutely perfect. The room provided ample space for all of our guests to dine comfortably and dance the night away, with high ceilings and a rustic, elegant vibe that wasn’t overly beachy—exactly what we were looking for. The two beautiful fireplaces on either side of the room added a cozy touch to the ambiance. Our ceremony took place on their gorgeous lawn, framed by a stunning tree line and a picturesque pond complete with a fountain. The arbor made for a breathtaking backdrop as we exchanged our vows under the open sky. It felt like something out of a dream. A special shout-out to Roxanne, our day-of coordinator, who truly made our day flawless. From helping us select appetizers, meals, and bar service, to setting up an ambiance that wowed both us and our guests, she was with us every step of the way. Her attention to detail and calming presence were invaluable, and she ensured that the entire day ran smoothly, handling everything we needed—and things we didn’t even realize we needed—with grace and professionalism. Speaking of food, the catering was beyond amazing. We chose the beef tenderloin with bordelaise sauce and Atlantic grilled salmon, and both were cooked to perfection. The meatball appetizers were an absolute highlight—people are still talking about them! What’s more, the food was surprisingly affordable for the high quality. Foster’s and their incredible team curated the most memorable experience of a lifetime for us. We will forever sing their praises. Thank you for making our special day everything we dreamed of and more!
Great Day
The overall quality, professionalism, and service you are getting from Foster's is unmatched. After deciding between 3 other different wedding venues, we decided on Foster's and were so glad we did! Beth and Roxanne and their staff provided such a great product, it had all our guests saying it was "one, if not the best wedding" they've ever attended. The food was first rate, and the venue itself was spacious, yet intimate enough. We're hoping to have another party there in the future. Thanks Beth and Roxanne for making it such an unforgettable day! Cheers!
Pleasure to work with
Delicious food, easy to work with and asked all the right questions. For someone who had no idea what to think or plan, Foster's was a great asset to our wedding and accommodating.
AMAZING VENUE!
There is not enough space in this review to explain just how AMAZING Fosters and its staff are. We got married here on 10/30/20 and it was absolutely perfect thanks to Garrison and Beth! Back in August we had to change our original wedding plans of getting married in PR, because we did not want our guests getting on a plane due to COVID. I called multiple venues in York and the surrounding area to see what our backup options were. I originally spoke with Beth and she could not have been nicer or more helpful! She answered all of my questions and put a hold on our date before we even came to visit. From the start they were just so friendly, easygoing, and accommodating. Once we saw the venue we knew immediately that it was perfect for us. Its cozy, charming, clean, and so spacious! Both inside and outside. We mainly worked with Garrison throughout the planning process and she was INCREDIBLE! I genuinely never felt stressed even with all of the unknowns going on in the world because I knew that she would find a way to make our day perfect! and she did! Flash forward to the day before our wedding. We were supposed to have our ceremony at the beach up the road but snow was on the forecast. Garrison and Beth didn't miss a beat!!! They gave us a ton of options and were so easy going and flexible. We wound up doing our ceremony in the York Room and it was beautiful. Our wedding day went seamlessly! We helped decorate the room the day before which was amazing. When we showed up everything looked perfect and they had a fire going inside and outside. Beth and Garrison made sure our ceremony went smoothly and that us and our guests had everything we needed throughout the night. THE FOOD. OMG. Our guests are still RAVING about how delicious the grilled lobster bake was! and the crab cakes! and the homemade onion dip! and the blueberry crumb cake!!! Everyone said that I wouldn't eat at my wedding but they were SO wrong! I had everything and can personally vouch for how delicious it was. Thank you Garrison and Beth for making our day so perfect!!!! I don't know why anyone would get married anywhere else!
