My wife and I came to them on short notice and with a lot of stress due to the time/money expenses of planning the big day. Renee was unfailingly kind, endlessly patient and always upbeat. Putting it simply, the crew at Adena are wonderful people who are very good at their job. The day itself went off without a single hiccup. Every typical issue that we encountered - such as delays on our part, or things I forgot- was handled before I even fully aware of it. They did their jobs calmly and joyfully, and helped reassure my anxious wife (and my surprisingly anxious self). The location is absolutely beautiful, maintained expertly and decorated perfectly. Our reception was elegant and rustic, with clear views of the blue sky outside making a very pretty backdrop to celebration. The Wooded Cathedral was where we had our reception, and I highly recommend it to anyone who’s dreamed of an outdoor wedding in the country. My wife and I are so happy that we switched venues to Adena. We’re thrilled that they’ve left us with these memories, and we are so happy to call the team at Adena friends. Thank you guys for helping us start a marriage on the highest possible note.

We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful place to celebrate our wedding. The entire property is absolutely stunning, from the ceremony site to the reception space. It’s a truly picturesque setting that made for the most beautiful photos and an unforgettable atmosphere. The day-of staff were friendly, helpful, and made sure everything ran seamlessly. The food was delicious, and so many of our guests complimented the meal. We had a wonderful experience and an incredibly beautiful day, and we’re so happy we chose this venue for our wedding.

The quality of their work and the value they provided was incredible - the space was grand, beautiful, and classy. The staff we worked with directly, Olivia, Alex and Natalie, were out of this world and we loved them dearly. They were so easy to communicate with leading up to our wedding, reaching out when needed and being so responsive to all of our questions.

River Stone Manor was absolutely incredible for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. The grounds were in beautiful condition, and the updated aesthetic created such a gorgeous setting for our celebration. We were married in front of the fireplace, which made for the most warm and romantic backdrop. Ashley Dariano was truly amazing to work with. She is kind, responsive, and exceptionally organized. She helped bring so many of our ideas to life and ensured everything stayed on track throughout the planning process and on the big day. We did not have a day-of planner, and our wedding still went off without a hitch, which is a huge testament to Ashley and her team. The food was spectacular, and our guests are still talking about it. The Dijon chicken was a personal favorite, and we are so glad we added the late-night French fry station. It was such a hit. We would highly recommend River Stone Manor to any couple looking for a beautiful venue, seamless execution, and an unforgettable experience

When we first booked Glen Sanders, someone told my mother that Glen Sanders runs like a well-oiled wedding machine. They were spot on. Glen Sanders knows weddings. Every vendor was thrilled to hear we were working with them. They made the entire process so easy, so clear. Maki, our bridal attendant, was INCREDIBLE. She greeted us off the bus with our champagne flutes, made sure I was hydrated all during photos, helped me with my dress, and brought me down my sneakers at the reception, among many other things. Glen Sanders also sets up all of your cocktail hour Hors d'œuvres in a separate room for you to eat before going to your reception, and it was the moment my husband and I needed to catch our breath and feel "present" for the rest of the night. People often say their wedding was a blur, but we remember every detail thanks to that moment to pause. As for the venue itself, all of our guests still talk about how great of a setup it was. We got ready on-site (groomsmen downstairs, bridesmaids upstairs, MOG got her hair done in the salon downstairs), our cocktail hour outside and on the enclosed porch, the reception in the ballroom, our after party in the basement bar (Speak-easy vibes!), and then we stayed up with close friends and siblings around the fire until the early hours before going to sleep in our rooms on-site! Glen Sanders is certainly a one-stop shop for everything, and their product is unparalleled. Thank you, GSM team, for the best night of our lives! -Elaina and Bill

Reader: If you’re in love, thinking about falling in love, or just want to be surrounded by charm, joy, and magic: BOOK YOUR WEDDING AT THE WILBURTON! Wow. Just wow. This place is utterly one of a kind. The Wilburton is perched on a hilltop with sweeping Green Mountain views. There’s historic charm, whimsical art, lush gardens, beautiful rugs. It feels like a family estate, an art museum, and a dreamy retreat all rolled into one. But what truly sets The Wilburton apart isn’t the beauty (though it is ABUNDANT). It’s the people. The team behind the Wilburton…WOW. Meesha, Tajlei, Melissa, Albert, Sarah, Lottie, Valerie, Dexter, Sam, the CHEF!, the housekeeping crew... I don’t know how else to say this. They are literal angels. A full ensemble of guardian angels disguised as event pros, who treat your guests with so much care, warmth, and intention it will leave you speechless. And Meesha…. the heartbeat of your wedding planning! She’s the Wilburton's on-site wedding planner for your entire planning process, but in reality, she goes WELL beyond that role. She is the calm in the storm, a problem solver, and deeply compassionate. She treated our family like her own. When visa issues threatened our international guests’ plans, she worked with Tajlei and Melissa to ensure flexible, stress-free housing. And when our budget felt tight, without us asking, she offered thoughtful ideas to help us save without sacrificing anything. Then there are the moments in the special details. Like when all the shuttles had left and one of our guests missed the bus. Meesha personally drove him home at 1:30am, planning to come back to finish her work. Or how she and her team were somehow everywhere at once, framing table numbers, boxing things up at the end of the night. I have no idea when she did half of it. Meesha just made it all feel seamless. And the entire team at The Wilburton follows that lead. While we were dancing at the reception, they snuck into our bridal suite, cleaned it, organized it, and left it glowing. No clue when they found the time, especially since Meesha was also capturing video snippets from the sidelines to send us. Every vendor gushed about the staff. Every guest adored them. I genuinely wanted Meesha and the team around her as guests in the wedding by the time the big day came! The team absolutely DELIVERS. Dexter’s MASSIVE bonfire on Friday night was the perfect kickoff (the bonfire is a MUST do!). Valerie’s INCREDIBLE warmth and cocktails were handcrafted magic with homegrown ingredients. Tajlei and Melissa made us feel like the property had been waiting for us all along. Even during our tasting weekend, they created an experience that felt personal, thoughtful, and joyful for all the couples. Everywhere we turned, the team added little touches: unwrapping guest blankets, grabbing Advil, offering tables and carpets, hand-delivering gift bags to rooms. There were at least a dozen things I intended to handle, only to find they’d already been done. I’ll never know the full list of behind-the-scenes magic, but I felt it all. That kind of quiet thoughtfulness made the weekend feel easy, magical, and full of love. If you’re looking for the BEST place for a wedding, reunion, event, or even a night away, do yourself a favor and book The Wilburton Inn!!!

Carmine and Theresa at Hildene, The Lincoln Family Home, were responsive and attentive throughout the entire planning process. They were always willing to show us around the property when we stopped by for a visit, which helped us feel comfortable and confident in our decision to host our wedding there. The venue itself was simply stunning - Lincoln Hall is a wonderful addition that provided an unforgettable backdrop for our special day, even when we had to move the ceremony indoors due to rain. Carmine was our rock through the planning process, and his professionalism allowed us to forgo a planner or coordinator, as we knew he had everything covered. The team pivoted flawlessly when we had to move the event inside, ensuring our wedding day was nothing short of beautiful and memorable.

My wife and I wanted an outdoor summer wedding. We live in lower Westchester county and did not find anything to our liking. We drove up to the initial visit with high hopes and we were not disappointed. It was almost instant that we loved the estate and property. This was the best decision we made. We were able to have our family stay with us which was a big plus for us to get that extra time with everyone. The list of recommendations for vendors was amazing and very detailed.
