Not only is the Cracker Factory a beautiful hidden gem, but every person on the team is amazingly considerate, kind, and helpful. Ashley, Brandon, and Amanda were a joy to work with from the initial tour to all email correspondence, the day of and even when picking up our decor the day after. We stumbled on the venue in a random Google search and decided to check it out while passing through after the holidays, and were blown away by the venue's layout, architecture, interior design, and features. It was everything we wanted and more. They provided us a very detailed list of recommended vendors covering everything from furniture rentals to catering, even hotels and airbnbs in the area. Their bar service packages were expertly tailored and they even had NA beer and wine which quite a few of our guests really appreciated. Brandon and Ashley were like extra coordinators during our tea ceremony, welcome party, and wedding day. They are extremely understanding of cultural ceremonies and were happy to boil water needed for our tea ceremony and set up the necessary seating and tables for it. Brandon was so attentive to us and our whole wedding party and family. We got so many compliments on his friendliness and kindness, as well as how beautiful and unique the venue is. Ashley was so quick to respond and answer any questions we had weeks and days leading up to our wedding. When we were visiting shops and places in the Geneva area a couple days leading up to the wedding, everyone in the community gave them such high praise, telling us we were in great hands, and they couldn't have been more right. Everyone at the cracker factory is professional, kind, communicative, and fun. They helped us have an incredibly fun and stress-free wedding. We couldn't recommend this space and this team enough.

My husband and I got married at Inns of Aurora in June and I cannot say enough great things about the property, the staff, our contacts Lindsey and Kim, the food, and every piece of the weekend. We knew we wanted to get married in the Finger Lakes and looked at a few venues, but nothing compared to Inns. We loved the intimate nature of the property, the wedding and reception spaces, the accommodations, the convenience of Fargo across the street for the after party, and the relaxed yet elevated vibe. Lindsey and Kim were incredible to work with - we felt both understood what we were looking for and wanted to do and were a joy to work with. During the wedding weekend, Kim was absolutely amazing - anticipating our every need, offering to take our dog out during our wedding if needed, and checking in on me throughout the welcome party and reception to see if I needed anything (often already prepared with my drink of choice in hand in case I needed a refill). The food was incredible - our guests all remarked about the food and service the entire weekend. Our guests loved spending the weekend in Aurora - walking to the Village Market to grab a coffee in the morning, enjoying the spa, wineries and breweries, just enjoying time with friends on the gorgeous properties, having lunch at Fargo, etc. Overall this is a phenomenal property and venue - they deliver an exceptional level of service and I can't recommend it enough. Two vendors to call out - Metropolitan Players was the wedding band of our dreams and Laura of Laura Rose Photography was truly the best (a pleasure to work with, incredible energy on the day of, and stunning photos). We look forward to coming back to Inns for many years to come!

We arrived the day before and she let us set up the whole barn/ space to our liking. She let us customize everything and worked with our timeline.

I’m getting emotional just writing this, but Springside Inn truly made our wedding dreams come true. The facility itself is STUNNING and so versatile!!! We decided to have our ceremony in The Grove (beautiful outdoor area surrounded by trees) and our reception in the ballroom, but there are so many options and different ways to use the venue that no 2 weddings are alike. The rooms we got to stay in too are also absolutely gorgeous. Antique charm but state of the art amenities. I am not exaggerating when I say the food and cake were some of the best things I’ve ever eaten in my 29 years of existence. So customizable and delicious! The chef and catering staff are so nice and talented. And last by certainly NOT least…the site coordinator, Chris, is an absolute angel. As soon as we booked the venue, she guided us EVERY step of the way with planning. She is an absolute expert on all things wedding planning and ensured the day went so smoothly. She is such a calm presence and was so attentive, helpful, reassuring, and just overall one of the nicest human beings I’ve ever met!!! I feel like I will never be able to express my gratitude for her enough. Springside Inn is an absolute dream in every shape or form and I could not recommend them enough Love, Jacqui and James Married 9/28/24

We could not have asked for a better wedding experience than the one we had here! From the second we met Mandy and Greg (the owners) and then toured the property, we were hooked. They are so experienced in the wedding industry and made our vision of our big day a reality. One of the best parts of our wedding weekend was the all-inclusive nature of the property. We got access starting Friday and had the venue all the way until Sunday. This allowed us to bring our decorations and start setup without last minute stress. The night before we had our ceremony rehearsal and then held a bonfire for our guests. The morning of we used their onsite cabins to get ready, and then took some of the most breathtaking photos. You can tell just how much thought that they put into making the landscape beautiful, with endless flowers. Our guests had a wonderful experience as well, with attendants for parking and constant friendly faces directing them where to go. The site for the ceremony is just a short walk from where you park and is right on the river…. gorgeous. Our other vendors were able to communicate easily with the venue owners and it allowed for our day to go by stress-free. Day of coordination is included and truly made the experience. We met with Mandy and Greg multiple times during the planning process and it allowed us to put full faith in them. The venue is spacious which is ideal for a variety of different vendors, allowing for personalization of your day without fear that things won’t fit. Meeting Mandy and Greg was fate, and led to our day being more than we ever could have imagined. We cannot thank them enough for taking our vision and making it a reality! We can’t wait to come back for future events, both ours and others, and see the venue flourish and grow.

My wife and I had the absolute BEST wedding imaginable at the Sinclair. Every little detail was perfect. The care and attention that was paid by every single staff-person, vendor and employee was second to none. The venue is STUNNING and you can tell how much care went into making the space everything any couple would want from a wedding venue. It would be very difficult to find a venue and team that exceeds what you will get at the Sinclair. Every member of the Sinclair and Rosalies team were as communicative as possible. Anytime we reached out throughout the planning process, we got quick and thorough responses. There was no guessing about how our day would go. They perfected every detail; Our guest have been raving non-stop about the venue, food and service. Thank you thank thank you!

Osmica is a dream! Allie and Kurt are gems and helped make our wedding so very special. From the beautiful property to the fun yard games, gorgeous renovated barn and hayloft to the lovely overnight we spent at the B&B, it was an occasion we'll never forget. The space is flexible to have a ceremony indoors or out, space for live music, ample dance floor real estate, and the loft can be set up in different configurations for whatever suits the event. Allie used flowers from the property to adorn the tables while Kurt managed catering deliveries, and they were amazing with set-up, tear-down, welcoming guests, and so much more. Allie communicated with us clearly about making sure we had the proper paperwork filed for having beer and wine on-site, and details for making things run smoothly on the day-of. We booked a night at the B&B which was so fabulous - they've renovated the farm house with such charm and character, many things being up-cycled - and breakfast we had the next morning (with ingredients from the farm!) was scrumptious. We highly recommend Osmica for your wedding, or any special event!

Aside from the beauty of the lake and the hotel, this place did it all for us. Any extra things we wanted for the wedding or reception just needed to be dropped off and the event coordinators took care of the rest. The coordinator we met with was great with communication through email. We really enjoyed our dinner tasting - the food was amazing! The coordinators made the day run so smoothly. The room for the cocktail hour was set up wonderfully. Table settings are included with the package and the candles looked perfect. We felt secure in knowing we could easily move the ceremony inside with any weather concerns. The landscaping/greenery is so well taken care of, it looked fantastic for our ceremony outside on the patio. The hotel staff set up, serve, and clean up - it made for a very relaxing weekend. Our hotel room was incredible also. The hotel was generous with leaving little surprises and gifts for us when we arrived to our room. It was all worth the price.

The space is a beautiful blank canvas and the location is ideal as it’s right off East Ave and very close to hotels. Both Kin and Root, owned by Kristen, excel in quality and service. Kristen's holistic approach to food was evident, making it a highlight of our day. Honestly, the staff was just beyond incredible. They made the day by bringing positive energy and ensuring everything was perfect. Would highly recommend!!
