My partner and I live in New York City and weren't planning on having our wedding in the finger lakes. But we were taking a vacation up there shortly after having been engaged and decided to visit the Cracker Factory for "fun" to "practice seeing venues". And then we fell in love with the space. Suddenly, we were planning a finger lakes wedding. And boy am I glad we did. The space is just perfect for an event like this. It's big, but doesn't feel it. There's room for dancing, and for having a conversation with an old friend you can actually hear. The back bar is amazing, and the outdoor deck is just the right size. And the team was incredible as well. Amy and then Ashley were responsive, understanding, and incredibly accommodating. We wanted to do things a little different from the prototypical wedding, and Ashley helped us with it all. Genuinely, there were zero hitches the whole day (not counting my wife and I getting hitched). And the price for what you get? Incredibly reasonable! (as far as weddings go). Truly, we felt like we got a steal. TL;DR If we got married ten times, we'd do all ten at the Cracker Factory. It was everything we wanted and more.

I attended a wedding at The Venue on Atwater and it was an absolute blast from start to finish. Getting to hang out in the bridal suite before the ceremony was such a highlight—it was spacious, gorgeous, and provided the perfect, comfortable setting for us girls to get ready and celebrate together beforehand. Once the reception kicked off, the energy never dropped. The staff kept everything running effortlessly and the space accommodated an incredible party where the dance floor stayed packed all night. It was easily one of the most fun weddings I’ve ever been to and I had the best time dancing the night away!

The Big Tree Inn absolutely exceeded my expectations for our wedding. From the start when I was just asking about options April and her team were on top of everything, very quick to respond to emails and calling back. They are so flexible, there wasn’t anything we couldn’t throw at them that they didn’t take on and absolutely dominate. The cost was such a big factor in our wedding at the Big Tree, they are so affordable and you get every cent you pay for! We originally wanted to do just our reception at the Big Tree but in the end we ended up doing the entire wedding there. April was so flexible with every little change. Words cannot express how beautiful and truly amazing our wedding was, it was everything we pictured and so much more. Big Tree Inn is the perfect place to get married and if I had to do it all over again I wouldn’t hesitate to work with the Big Tree Inn.

Every single person we interacted with was warm, professional, and genuinely invested in making our weekend unforgettable. No request was too big or too small, and they always made us feel like we were their top priority. A very special thank you to Morgan and Sharon. They were absolutely amazing throughout the entire planning process and during the wedding weekend itself. Morgan ensured our rehearsal dinner was flawless, and Sharon worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make sure our wedding day ran seamlessly. Their organization, communication, and calm demeanor allowed us to truly relax and enjoy every moment with our family and friends. We never had to worry because we knew we were in the best hands.

We knew we wanted to get married at a Finger Lakes winery and couldn't have chosen a more beautiful place to get married than Ventosa Vineyards. The Seneca Lake views and the vineyards created the most incredible backdrop for our ceremony and photos! The staff was amazing throughout the entire process and made planning our wedding so easy.
