From the moment we arrived at Crest Hollow Country Club, we knew our wedding day was in the best hands possible. The entire staff — from the coordinators to the servers, bartenders, and attendants — worked seamlessly to ensure every detail was flawless. The services was beyond our expectations. They were professional, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. Every request, big or small, was met with a smile and handled with such care that we never once had to worry about a thing. The staff anticipated our needs before we even voiced them, allowing us to simply enjoy the day. The service was impeccable — drinks were always full, plates were served with grace, and the timing of every part of the evening flowed effortlessly. Our guests are still raving about how friendly, accommodating, and efficient everyone was. “A special shout-out to Kim, our amazing attendant, who seemed to anticipate every need before we even asked! She quickly found nail glue for the bride at a crucial moment, tracked down batteries to keep the bubble machine going, and even came to the rescue with supplies to clean my husband’s jacket. Her calm efficiency and kindness made our day run so much smoother — we are truly grateful for her thoughtful, above-and-beyond service.” We are truly grateful to the Crest Hollow team for making our wedding day not only beautiful but stress-free. Their professionalism, warmth, and dedication left a lasting impression on us and everyone who attended. Thank you for helping create memories we will cherish forever!

The venue was beautiful and we loved everything.. the band, string lights, passed food, and overall inside/outside ambiance. There were a few areas that could be improved—coordination between the venue and beach ceremony location wasn’t as smooth as we’d hoped, and the bridal suite could benefit from a full-length mirror. Ceremony area also felt a bit rushed, as the candles were not lit for the ceremony and we noticed chair flowers not used/missing after the fact. Everything still looked beautiful despite these hiccups, the evening itself was truly special. It’s def a lovely venue! A wedding planner may extend extra help if that’s the route you want to go. I def recommend this venue for anyone who really wants a cool beachy vibe spot!

Our wedding turned out to be incredibly beautiful, thanks to a unique venue and execution by its staff. However, that perfect day was almost derailed by the unacceptable pressure campaign to change ceremony locations due to concerns over furniture getting wet. We wanted this review to capture our nearly 20 months of planning with the TWA Hotel. PLANNING PROS: -Variety of spaces -Responsiveness -Flexibility for storing supplies CONS: -No FAQ document -Frustrating room block system -Forgotten menu tasting notification -Lack of communication and contradictory info from the Paris Cafe for rehearsal dinner THE WEDDING PROS: -Organized and accommodating staff -The food, especially the pastrami station and red velvet cake for dessert CONS: -Wrong display with typo on Solaris board in the Sunken Lounge -Our tiered wedding cake wasn’t cut and served even tho there clearly wasn’t enough sheet cake to pass around -The weather “policy”: We were told that we could make a final decision on an outdoor ceremony up until the morning of our wedding, and our point of contact reassured us of this during our final walkthru 2 weeks out. Our contract also secured the Sunken Lounge as the backup option if we chose to move indoors. However, in the final days and hours before our wedding, we were pressured to move our ceremony indoors, despite nearly all weather reports showing clear skies for our 5-6pm ceremony and rain only after 9pm. Our point of contact started questioning our outdoor plans 4-5 days before the wedding, and even met with us multiple times - first in the lobby while we were dropping off supplies 2 days before our wedding, again when we were checking in the next day, and yet again when we were at the pool before our rehearsal dinner, where we had to brush off our guests in order to have a serious meeting. Each time, they told us we needed to make a "final call" now, not the morning-of as we had been told before. After listing their reasons to move the ceremony indoors (which included threatening to release the Sunken Lounge from our backup option, despite what our contract said), the point of contact mentioned that the head manager was concerned about the rain damaging the leather chairs, and then proposed a “solution” of having the ceremony outside, but not setting up any chairs so that our guests would stand for the entire ceremony. It was clear to us that the real reason why we were being pressured was that the manager didn’t want their leather chairs to get wet! We asserted that, unless we were explicitly told we couldn't have our ceremony outside, we would stick with the outdoor option. The morning of our wedding, our day-of coordinator informed us that the venue was insisting they now had a “50% chance of rain policy”, giving them the “right” to change ceremony locations. We immediately forwarded reports from 10 weather sites that all had a chance of rain between 5-7pm at 0-30%. We finally saw chairs being set up outside in the mid-afternoon, and when our ceremony got underway, the clouds parted ways and the sun started shining. CONCLUSION: The TWA Hotel is such a special place to celebrate your wedding! Before you sign the contract, however, understand that you’ll have to stay on top of the planning process, and in cases like ours, fight for what you envision. Make sure the contract spells out any and all promises — there were items that we made sure they honored as it was clear the hotel’s policies had changed since the signing.

My husband and I got married at Stewart Manor Country Club on 12/6/24, and all I can say is the whole experience with them was a dream. From the day we stepped in to tour and spoke with Lisa and John, we felt like family. We felt like they couldn’t wait to help us celebrate our special day. From planning, to communication, they were the best. Nothing ever felt stressful, and I believe that’s all because of how well organized they are. The team here does everything in their power to make sure your day is everything you have ever wanted. Fast forward to wedding day- with James as our maitre d/bridal attendant/what felt like our very own personal assistant for the day; our day was seamless from top to bottom. And the food? All of our guests have not stopped commenting how great it all was. It was the most memorable, best day ever. And we believe it all started at the hands of the team and the beauty of the environment at Stewart Manor Country Club! Thanks John, Lisa, James and the entire staff!

GCH was the most amazing venue. I’ve been to a majority of the venues on Long Island but this one took the cake. The food was OUTSTANDING (everyone raves about it), the people (especially Paul) were so unbelievably helpful and amazing. My bridal attendant Nang was WOW. She held my train everywhere while we were walking and fluffed it to help the photographers, she always had water for me and the groom, she carried my lipsticks and had me reapplying, she bustled my dress so easily so we didn’t have to bother my mom, she got mine and my husbands afterparty outfits ready for us so we didn’t have to go upstairs… the list goes on and on. If you want a venue that makes your life super easy leading up to the wedding and the day of the wedding and one that your guests will rave about for literally months this is the place.
