Abandon Brewing was absolutely perfect for our wedding. The venue was exactly what we wanted for our smaller ceremony (70 people total) with incredible Finger Lakes views and a sli...
ghtly outdoorsy vibe. Having the Farmhouse right next door for lodging and getting ready was so convenient. Their event coordinator Kerry was incredibly helpful through every step of the process and the day was a dream, even with a couple hiccups (the wind kept blowing over our floral centerpieces and so we got sidewalls for our tent at the last minute). Several of our guests commented that it was the most relaxing, chill wedding they had ever been to, which is what we were aiming for. It was so fun for guests to have the option of any beer they wanted, and the bartenders were all great. All in all, if you’re looking for a chill wedding vibe at a picturesque venue, this is the place.

We absolutely loved having our wedding at Abandon Brewing! My wife and I first went to Abandon when on our first dating anniversary and fell in love with it, so it felt like the pe...
rfect place to get married.
Kerry, the event coordinator, and the owner, AJ, were extremely kind and helpful throughout the entire planning process.
I would highly recommend this venue for any wedding. The scenery is fantastic, the beer is great, and the pavilion made for a perfect reception spot. Abandon Brewing worked great with all our other hired vendors and went above and beyond in pretty much every way to make our day perfect and easy.
Also, as an LGBTQ couple, it is worth noting that they were extremely accepting and welcoming to us. AJ even made sure to wear his Abandon Brewing pride shirt to our wedding which we totally loved!
We also stayed at the Air BNB on site the night before and night of which made everything super convenient for wedding prep, getting ready in the morning, and having a close spot to go after the long day. The Air BNB is beautiful and had everything we needed - it certainly made the weekend easier for us to stay right on site and would definitely recommend it to anyone having their wedding here.
Overall, I truly cannot say enough about Abandon Brewing. They hold a special place in our hearts. The staff went above and beyond to make our day beautiful and seamless. Special shout out to Kerry Haley for being incredibly understanding and kind when we had to make some date changes and had to do some pivoting due to unforeseen circumstances. She was there for us each step of the process and we honestly couldn't have done it without her.

er, was wonderful and so easy to work with. She had really great ideas about what things worked well for the space and was very willing to work with us with all our ideas. The pricing and timeline are very straightforward- no hidden fees or 'extras', which is very much appreciated. The staff were all friendly and very accommodating for all our guests. If you are looking for a reasonably priced, gorgeous outdoor space for your Finger Lakes wedding, I highly recommend looking at Abandon!

We honestly could not have asked for a better wedding venue. From the very beginning, communication was so easy and everyone was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. K...
erry was amazing. Organized, responsive, calming, and just genuinely wonderful to work with. AJ was also fantastic and made us feel so welcomed and taken care of the whole time.
The space itself is absolutely beautiful. The views are stunning and the whole space has such a warm, inviting feel. The on-site Airbnb was also such a huge bonus. Adorable, super spacious, and so convenient for getting ready and spending time with family and friends all weekend.
The food was another highlight. The rehearsal dinner the night before was delicious, and our guests are still talking about the cocktail hour pizzas and gorgeous charcuterie spread. Everything was fresh, beautiful, and so well done.
You can really tell how much care goes into every detail here. We felt supported the entire way through and truly got to enjoy our wedding day stress-free. Couldn’t recommend this place more.
