I worked together with Olga at Mountain Pearl for a styled photoshoot we did together this fall. As a wedding photographer who has shot hundreds of weddings in the area and beyond, I highly recommend them. The venue is beautiful and modern inside- a blank canvas for many different wedding styles. The outdoor area is stunning with mountain views, gorgeous blooms in season, a pond, greenhouse and tons of picturesque spots for photos! My favorite area of the venue was the greenhouse which (I think) is very unique to the area and the perfect spot for a microwedding, a ceremony or even a cocktail hour area. Mountain Pearl is a family run venue and you can tell they go above and beyond for anyone who visits. Olga and her family treated every vendor on site with such care and kindness. I can’t wait to go back for another wedding in the future! 10/10 recommend!!!

We recently held our daughters wedding in the NY Catskills, during the 2025 Fall Foliage season. Our daughter created a cohesive vision that would be embedded throughout all of the wedding events (Rehearsal Dinner; Welcome Party; Wedding Day Ceremony & Reception; After Party and finally the Farewell Brunch). Her goal was to strike that unique vibe and ensure that every guest walked away from the weekend with a long lasting memory that differentiated the experience from most traditional weddings. Coordinating a wedding in the Catskills takes a lot of planning and coordination to deliver that unique experience for guests traveling from all over the country, especially when the attention for detail is a priority. One of the best decisions we made, was to choose French Woods Farmhouse, to be the venue to start & end our wedding weekend. French Woods Farmhouse was the venue for our Welcome Party as well as for our Farewell Brunch. The Welcome Party & Farewell Brunch at French Woods Farmhouse, exceeded our expectations in kicking off the wedding weekend & wrapping it up. The property & layout was so conducive for our Welcome Party & Farewell Brunch goals, in getting our guests quickly immersed into a Catskills Wedding vibe. Some of the featured highlights included: - Full Cocktail Bar - Live Music - Curated Catered Food with Service - Random Gathering Spots for Mingling, Eating & Drinking (including tables, seating, as well as space within their newly renovated barn) - Spontaneous Lighting Elements (on driveway, pond, trees) - Continuous Video Clips, projected on to the side of the barn - Massive Fire Pits for chilling & watching the stars (this was a HUGE hit) And all showcased on a meticulously manicured property that provided our guests with epic views of clear skies, rolling hills, foliage changing landscapes & ponds, all in a secluded space from the rest of the world! All of this would not be possible without the continuous orchestration with the owners of French Woods Farmhouse (Bruce & Denise). Throughout the entire planning process, they were in constant contact with us, as well as coordinating several visits to fine tune all of the details including reviewing various property visuals, layouts & configurations. (They literally created backup layouts as well, in the event of bad weather) They also are well connected in the area, in terms of services, rentals & activities, so when it came time to finalize the many details, they made it SO easy & frictionless. It was incredibly helpful to have their help in coordinating various aspects (eg., rentals, catering, servers, restroom trailers, cleanup crews, parking). While we leveraged French Woods Farmhouse for the Welcome Party & Farewell Brunch, in hindsight we should have also considered the Rehearsal Dinner and After Party events at this venue as well! The space is very dynamic to setup differently for each event scenario. FYI… We also happen to rent the main house for 8 of us to stay for the entire weekend. The attention to detail shown throughout the entire property is impeccable & impressive. The house is WELL stocked with all your needs, anticipating all scenarios & questions one would encounter while staying at their gorgeous home & property. (We also loved the farmhouse décor) Overall cleanliness… the entire house was extremely clean upon stepping in on our first day. Its clear that they prioritize this, as if they were staying themselves.

We cannot say enough good things about this venue! Danielle (our wedding coordinator) and her team exceeded our expectations at every turn. They were intuitive - anticipating our needs often before we even asked for something - and offering suggestions on things we would not have thought of before it was too late. When we realized we had forgotten something (like batteries for the electric candles), we didn’t even have to ask. They overheard us panicking and raced to get what we needed in time for the ceremony. The event space was gorgeous and they were able to pivot when the weather turned threatening and provide our daughter with something that was even better than she had initially envisioned. There was not a single thing that we would have changed. If you are looking for a wedding venue, this all-inclusive space is more cost-effective than you might imagine because you get all your needs met at one price. If you want something more than what they offer, you can either provide it yourself or they have other low-cost add-ons, but honestly, we added very few things because what they offered was superb. They worked hand in hand with our vendors (photographer, videographer, florist, DJ) in a seamless manner, so that we didn’t have to be the go-between all the time. Weddings can be stressful, but because of Danielle and her team, our event - even with unexpected challenges - was stress-free. It was the joyous, beautiful wedding that our daughter had always dreamed of. Thank you truly doesn’t cover it!

We fell in love with Handsome Hollow the first time we stepped onto the property. We'd actually seen it covered in snow that first visit, and even then it felt magical. Kate promised us it would be just as beautiful in the spring. Funny enough, when we came back to tour with our planner, it was snowing again. Kate was great to communicate with throughout, and she and her husband Huck were a pleasure to work with from start to finish, easygoing and warm, the kind of people who put you at ease right away. Their staff went above and beyond during planning, and when rain threatened our day, they pivoted so quickly that our backup plan ended up being better than anything we could have imagined.

Wildflower on Watts is pure magic. Choosing this venue was THE best decision we made!

Bethany, the truly one-of-a-kind owner, went above and beyond from start to finish to ensure Rob and I had our absolute dream wedding. We thought it would just be “fun” to get married near our lake house, and we never expected the venue to feel this special to us! But it became so much more than we could have imagined. It beautifully combines rustic charm with modern touches and truly felt like the perfect mix of everything we wanted - almost as if it had been built just for us. The venue itself is perfect, but having Bethany with it makes the experience extraordinary. She made everything so easy and fun throughout the planning process up to the actual day. Bethany answered every single question with kindness, flexibility, and creativity, making sure no detail was overlooked. On the day itself, we felt completely at ease and able to soak in the pure bliss. Because of the gorgeous landscaping and size of the property, it feels like multiple venues in one. The spaces flow perfectly from ceremony to cocktail hour to dancing, giving every part of the day its own magic. Wildflower on Watts wowed every single one of our guests - they couldn’t stop raving about the stunning barn, the unique ceremony structure, and the way the flowers and natural surroundings created the most beautiful setting. Wildflower on Watts is simply our slice of heaven, and it was the most special backdrop to share with our closest people. If I could get married here a million times over, I would!!!

Wedding Date: 10/25/2025 When we first were looking for wedding venues, our vision was to have a wedding week where all our family and friends could feel like they were on vacation. We wanted a place that provided accommodations for our bridal party on the same property as the ceremony site and reception hall. Stonewall Estate delivered on all fronts. The Estate House, which accommodated our entire bridal party, sat at the top of the hill with breathtaking views of the hills/mountains. It also allowed the entire bridal party to bond over the course of the wedding week, and we had so many fun moments in that house. The ceremony site was beautiful with the autumn mountains as the backdrop. Although it was a bit cold, Stonewall provided a cold weather package that included hand warmers, blankets, and outdoor heaters for our guests. We also opted for the warm apple cider as a finishing touch! The reception space was a blank canvas and really allowed us to turn it into exactly what we had envisioned. The space was huge and allowed for us to accommodate a lot of guests, and incorporate so much of the furniture and decor Stonewall had to offer. The Stonewall property was more than satisfying for the wedding week, but then there’s the owners and staff who take it over the top. Melanie was so kind, helpful and supporting throughout the entire planning process. Answering our questions, providing her thoughts and ideas with regard to vendors, decor, and wedding day coordination. Stacy made sure our decor vision came to life. Steve ensured that everything, down to the tables and chairs, were exactly where they needed to be. The parking attendants, golf cart drivers, bartenders, all provided by Stonewall, were so kind and helpful on the wedding day. Suffice it to say, Stonewall Estate was the perfect place for us to spend our wedding week, and I will never forget all they did to make our wedding dreams come true. Our friends and family have not stopped raving about how much fun they had and how awesome the property is. We are seriously considering booking the property again, but this time for an anniversary vacation with our family and friends, just to relive the fun and positive vibes we had our wedding week.

Cheryl was so easy to work with. Her communication was great and timely all before my special day. I felt like I never had a worry because my questions were always answered before the day ended. During the rehearsal, she was able to answer all my questions and give some pointers, which was super helpful to make our day go smoothly. I suggest you take her advice. She showed her confidence in what she does best, which only made me feel less nervous about everything going on. She and her staff were so friendly at the rehearsal dinner, specially with the special requests I had for a few of my guests. Our wedding went on without a hiccup. Her staff decorated my tables exactly how I wanted. She met with my photographer to show the grounds for photo options. She was readily available in moments and was on point with the schedule of events on my day. The food was great and it seemed like things went seamlessly. She came to one more rescue for our friends and family. The following day, we did not anticipate so many of our friends and family wanted to leisurely join us for dinner. She was able to set us up in a space to accommodate us at the last minute. Cheryl was so easy to work with throughout the planning process. Her experience and organization is paramount. She made us feel comfortable and confident with our plans. Our family and friends had a blast at the party and the grounds that weekend. Many said they would return, including us.

Our wedding day was absolutely beautiful and everything I had ever dreamed of. I truly cannot thank the entire team at Backwoods enough for all of the hard work, dedication, and care they put into making our day so special. From the moment we arrived until the very end of the night, everything ran so smoothly. The food was absolutely delicious! Our guests are still talking about both the dinner and the passed appetizers. Every detail was thoughtfully prepared, and the staff worked tirelessly to ensure everything was perfect. I also cannot say enough wonderful things about Annie, the in-house baker. I highly recommend utilizing her for your wedding desserts! She helped create the perfect dessert selection for our special day and personalized everything to fit our wedding theme and style. Not only were the desserts beautiful, but they were absolutely delicious. A huge thank you goes to Jamie, the wedding coordinator. She truly is a blessing! She handled all of the behind-the-scenes details, kept everything organized, and made sure the entire day flowed seamlessly. Because of her, we were able to relax and truly enjoy every moment. I also highly recommend Roxanne with Unforgettable Wedding Events for your wedding coordinating and styling needs. She takes your vision and brings it to life in the most beautiful way. She made decorating so easy, stress-free, and affordable while creating a day that perfectly reflected our style and theme. The golf course itself was absolutely stunning and made the perfect backdrop for our wedding photos. Our photographer had so much fun capturing pictures throughout the property, and every location was breathtaking. Overall, our wedding day was absolutely perfect, and we couldn't have asked for a better venue or team to celebrate with.

We got married at New Park about 4 months ago, and it was absolutely magical! The scenery was breathtaking—exactly what I envisioned for my “backyard, but not a backyard” wedding. Multiple guests even said it was the favorite wedding they’d ever attended! There was plenty of space to dance, but guests also had so many other fun options like cornhole, ping pong, and relaxing by the fire. The venue is truly unique, and if I could do it all over again, I wouldn’t choose anywhere else. Huge thanks to Sara and the entire New Park team for making our day unforgettable!

TLW was the absolute best venue for our wedding. They let us bring a bouncy house obstacle course onto the property, and even had a vendor recommendation. Throughout our literal hundreds of emails back-and-forth, they were professional, friendly, and prompt in their reply. Our guests had so much fun, and TLW did a fantastic job accommodating our guests' various dietary restrictions. TLW also did a great job communicating with our other vendors. It was a dream to work with TLW - the food was delicious, all of their staff were friendly and welcoming, and the venue itself cannot be beat. The kids (and adults) had a wonderful time enjoying the goats on site, the swimming pool, and the go-karts! The go-karts are an absolute must-have add-on to any wedding, it is all anyone could talk about afterwards. It was so much fun!

My husband and I had our wedding here this June and the team at The Arnold House was so amazing to work with throughout the process. I truly do not think we would have had as great of a weekend if we had done it anywhere else. Everything felt very personally cared for, they approach everything with a 'yes' attitude (and offered comparable alternatives if option A was truly not possible), and in general they were so hospitable and communicative that we never felt nervous about their ability to execute the wedding weekend. By the time we were heading into our wedding weekend we felt nothing but excitement to experience and see everything we and the AH team had planned and to share it all with our friends and families. As a venue itself there are a myriad of options to choose from for hosting all the different parts of a full wedding weekend, and we never needed to repeat using a location over the course of the 7 different scheduled events (rehearsal dinner, welcome drinks, ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, after party, farewell brunch). It was great being able to host the majority of our guests on-site as well, and minimized the amount of coordination we needed to plan in advance for off-site guests, like hotel blocks and transportation.
