Awarded Best of Zola
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!

The Cracker Factory was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the initial communication via email, which was always prompt and helpful, to the day-of execution, the staff at The Cracker Factory exceeded our expectations. Their beautiful, industrial space provided the ideal backdrop for our ceremony and reception. The team worked closely with us to develop the perfect layout, ensuring the flow of the event went smoothly. On the day, the staff assisted with vendor entry and attended to countless details to keep everything running seamlessly. We were especially impressed by the stunning vines along the side of the building, which had turned a vibrant red color for the fall, adding to the already gorgeous ambiance. Overall, The Cracker Factory was the perfect choice for our wedding, and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for a unique and well-executed event space.
