Barry’s attention to detail, passion for what he does, and years of experience is the reason why having your wedding at the village club will be the best decision you will ever make. From the first day we booked the venue, Barry recommended incredible vendors and made the wedding process a breeze! Barry makes himself available 24/7 to answer questions, connect you with vendors and keep you calm! Even with an incredible venue, you need a capable staff to support your wedding day. Barry’s staff at the village club is amazing! Everyone is so friendly and diligent to making everything run smoothly the day of. The food is absolutely amazing! My guests came up to me all night raving about the food and saying it was the best wedding food they have ever had. After our tasting, we knew we made the right decision choosing the village club for our special day! The village club itself has had some new renovations which we were lucky enough to have for our wedding. The ballroom is completely updated and refinished, the building repainted, the room for cocktail hour has new carpet and refinished chairs to match, and the patio overlooking the golf course has a new permanent pergola structure that opens and closes for shade with fans to keep your guests cool! The renovations to the village club are incredible and give the venue a fresh new look! Barry and Amy really run such a smooth operation the day of the wedding. From the moment we arrived, Amy told us where to go, what to do and where we had to be. Barry and Amy provided us with drinks for the bridal suite and made sure everyone was taken care of! They both kept checking on us throughout the night to make sure we were eating, drinking and having the best night ever. If you are trying to decide where to get married, please go see Barry and Amy at the Village Club at Lake Success and book your wedding with them. I promise you it will be the best night of your life and you will get the chance to work with great people who want to do everything in their power to make your day the most special day ever!

We got married 1/5/25 but had been working with Miriam for probably a year and a half before our big day. She was always so personable with us a treated us like family. Words cannot describe the love and care we felt from Jake, our maître D and Samantha, our bridal attendant, on our wedding day. We were cared for tediously and effortlessly. We felt like at ease, happy and totally relaxed. I needed Samantha and didn’t even know it, I am forever indebted to her - she could not have been more attentive and wonderful. Comforting me, assuring me, getting me where I need to be and when. So friendly, kind and amazing. Thank god for Jake. He is so special and we’re so lucky we got him as our maître D. He deems himself as a “yes man” and he is not lying. Anything you could have ever wanted from him, he’d deliver. We wanted for nothing, had wonderful direction from him all night and he took care of EVERYTHING!  The night was flawless, amazing, perfect and all we could have ever hoped for. The staff at Bourne is unmatched, we made the right choice with this venue. Guests will be in awe of the venue and talk about the food for years to come. I wish I could do it all again. Thank you Bourne mansion & staff for the best night of our lives! I don’t have all my pics back yet!

We had our wedding at The Essex Club and it was truly flawless from start to finish. The venue itself is beautiful, but what really made the experience exceptional was the level of care that went into every single detail. From the very beginning, Jessica in sales was incredible. She was organized, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure our day turned out exactly the way we envisioned it. No matter how many questions we had or how many little tweaks we wanted to make, she always handled everything with patience, kindness, and complete professionalism. She made the entire planning process feel so easy. The day-of staff was just as amazing our bridal attendant Jalissa and the maître D Rob were both attentive and on top of everything without ever being intrusive. The rest of the staff ran everything so smoothly and make sure every detail was perfect. Our guests are still talking about how delicious the food was, we went to all the show cases that we could and picked off experience, from cocktail hour all the way through dessert. Every dish was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or a better team.

Booking our wedding at Lombardi’s on the Bay has been such a wonderful experience, and so much of that is thanks to Jeannie. From the moment we first met with her, she made us feel completely comfortable and genuinely excited about planning our wedding. My fiancé and I are juggling a lot right now — planning a wedding while raising our baby — and Jeannie has made the entire process feel easy and stress-free. She took the time to answer all of our questions, explain every detail, and never once made us feel rushed or overwhelmed. What really stood out was how personal she made the experience. She truly cares about the couples she works with and made us feel like our wedding day mattered just as much to her as it does to us. Her organization, communication, and warmth made such a difference in what can sometimes feel like an overwhelming process. We left our meeting feeling so confident that we chose the right place to celebrate such an important moment in our lives.

From the moment my now-husband and I stepped foot into the Watermill, we knew it was the one. We had toured two other venues—both beautiful—but the instant I walked in, I felt in my heart and gut that this was where our fairytale wedding would come to life, and I was absolutely right. The venue is breathtaking inside and out, and the staff are some of the kindest, most genuine people we’ve ever met. Everyone treated us like family. We booked with Rob, who immediately made us feel we were in the best hands. That warmth extended to everyone—from Mary at the front desk to Maria and Lorraine, who helped coordinate every detail. Anytime we had a question, the team was quick to help and always went above and beyond. The morning of the wedding was hectic, but the moment I arrived, I was greeted by Sean, Olivia, Francesca, and Dom—and instantly felt calm. Sean, our maître d’, was exceptional. His reassuring presence made all the difference, especially when the weather threatened our outdoor ceremony. He handled everything seamlessly and kept us informed without ever making us feel rushed. His goal was to give us the best day of our lives, and he absolutely delivered. Our captain, Dom, was incredible. He anticipated every need and even packed up all our untouched reception food so we could enjoy it later. His attentiveness was unmatched. Our bridal attendants, Olivia and Francesca, were absolute angels. Olivia helped with my veil, bustled my dress in record time, kept me hydrated, and always found me with a drink in hand. She guided us with so much patience and kindness. Francesca was equally wonderful—always right there, fixing my dress, bringing water, and anticipating anything I might need. I didn’t have to lift a finger all day. Our families couldn’t stop raving about all four—Sean, Dom, Olivia, and Francesca. Everyone said it was the best service they had ever experienced at a wedding. And if the staff weren’t enough, the food and ambiance were just as incredible. Cocktail hour alone blew everyone away—Latin, Mediterranean, Italian, a bacon bar, a butcher block, and endless passed hors d’oeuvres. Dinner offered nine entrée options, and dessert included pastries and cookies at every table. Everything was phenomenal. Our guests are still talking nonstop about how perfect everything was—from the décor to the food to the outstanding service. I wish I could relive the entire day. Rob was right—at the Watermill, you are truly in the best hands!
