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 are so over the moon happy that we had our wedding at the Inns of Aurora! Highly recommended! I can write a novel about our amazing experience but will try to keep it short. The venue is so magical and by the lake! During our site visit we fell in love with the historic charm and the colorful designs and arts in each of the Inns houses and couldn’t wait to share that with our family and friends. We worked very closely with Lindsey who was so sweet and responsive and helped us with all the details such as planning our tasting, all the details about rooming, options for rehearsal and Sunday breakfast. Closer to our wedding, Kim helped us with directing the details of our wedding day, helped us with the rehearsal and worked so seamlessly with all of our vendors. Our Vendors all loved working at the Inns because everyone is so organized and friendly. We are so thankful because Lindsey and Kim, were there for us through every step of our event planning. Kim was very kind and attentive and she spent every minute from Thursday through the end of Sunday supporting us! They were truly friendly and treated us with so much love. Kim and her team made sure we stayed on time and made sure we had a chance to eat and drink during the hours of the wedding. The food was truly delicious and exceptional, during our tasting at the wedding and anytime we ate the 1833 Kitchen. Many of the rooms are overlooking the water and one last thing we loved is the special granola bar that in my opinion is one of the Inns of Aurora’s signature details. The inns of Aurora and the Spa facility will always be a special place for us and we will definitely be back. Lots of love Negar and Adam

From the moment we toured the venue to the very last minute of our wedding night, the team was nothing short of exceptional. Their professionalism was evident in every interaction — they truly went above and beyond to make sure our day was seamless. We never felt like “just another couple”; instead, they made us feel like our wedding was the only one that mattered. They were there for us every single step of the way, offering helping hands, calming words, and quick solutions to any question we came across. Their attention to detail was incredible — from remembering the smallest preferences we mentioned months ago, to anticipating our needs before we even realized them.

I will be raving about our wedding at The Lincklaen House for the rest of my life. From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect thanks in huge part to the incredible Carrie. She is truly phenomenal. Her warmth, organization, and attention to every single detail made our entire experience feel effortless. She checked in with us throughout the weekend, made sure we had everything we needed, and treated our day like it truly mattered to her. This was the first and only venue we toured and we immediately knew it was the one. The charm, the affordability, the incredible food, and the all-in-one setup made it a no-brainer. Ceremony, cocktail hour on the patio with outdoor games, dinner, and an after-party in the tavern… everything flowed so naturally and beautifully in one building. Even the air conditioning was on point, keeping everyone comfortable all day! The staff was exceptional. Audrey was amazing throughout the day, and every single team member was kind, professional, and attentive. One of the sweetest moments was when they poured apple juice into champagne glasses for the kids during the toasts, just one of many thoughtful touches that made the whole day feel magical. Our getting-ready suites were beautiful, spacious, and the perfect spot to start the day. From the small details to the big picture, the Lincklaen House made our dream wedding come true. We are so incredibly grateful and we can’t recommend them highly enough. Thank you, Carrie and the entire Lincklaen team, you gave us the best day of our lives.

From the moment we first spoke with John at the John Joseph Inn, my husband and I felt incredibly cared for and supported. This was the first and only venue we visited when we first started planning and we knew right away this would be the place for our wedding day. John's thoughtful and flexible communication style put us at ease throughout the entire planning process. The stunning grounds and elegant venue felt like something out of a movie - the perfect backdrop for our special day. John and his team went the extra mile to incorporate every detail that was important to us, including working with us to build a custom menu that featured chicken from our family farm and custom desserts inspired by our mothers' recipes. The ability to have welcome cocktails and a day-after brunch all on the property allowed our guests, some of whom traveled a great distance, to spend more quality time celebrating with us. We also had plenty of kids attend, and they were having the time of their lives playing in the orchard throughout the wedding weekend. We are so grateful to the John Joseph Inn for helping to make our wedding day truly unforgettable.

David and I just had our wedding here this past Saturday. I could not ask for a more perfect venue - from the scenery, the beautiful Enchantment Garden, the proximity to the Falls and downtown Ithaca, to the amazing staff, food and service, we highly recommend the Inn at Taughannock Falls for a wedding venue, as well as a place to just stay the night and have an AMAZING meal from the restaurant (which we did the Thursday night before the wedding). All of our guests loved their accommodations, and Hillside house in particular served as the best "hang out", groomsmen getting ready, and after party spot. The full kitchen came in clutch for after party snacks and getting ready food. The Victorian Inn was literally perfect for hair and makeup and the fairly new 3rd salon is the ideal set up attached to a huge balcony overlooking the lake. What really made this wedding venue was the staff though. Later into the planning process, Amanda Hickey became our planner, after our previous planner Kelsey (who was also great) left. From day one Amanda was a rockstar - she was kind, thoughtful, helpful, extremely competent and organized. I did not feel like I had to start from scratch all over again with a new planner. She picked everything right back up and was key in making our perfect wedding day become a reality! Additionally, we would like to thank Stephenie who was very helpful throughout the process (including with getting us Cornell Dairy Bar for dessert!), Chef Justin, the pastry chef, Tania-Lynn, Loma, Gillian (so helpful attending to the bride the morning of the wedding and blocking traffic at the Falls first look), Carson (our personal server through the night who was so kind!!), Chloe, and all the other banquet staff! Our food options were impeccable and, while the short rib and halibut were slightly drier than preferred, they still tasted good! The cocktail hour stations and hor d'ourves were OUTSTANDING, and I must particularly thank and call out the Inn's chef and pastry chef making gluten free versions of everything for me (from the bread course, to Lobster puff pastry, and even special muffins at the Sunday breakfast) - and they did such a good job with it!!! All in all, this place is amazing and we highly recommend people have their wedding venue here (or at least visit it!). We cannot wait to come back to visit for our anniversaries too.
