Blenheim Hill Farm

On June 14, 2025 we had a wonderful wedding at Blenheim Hill Farm because of the joyful bride and groom, the families, the guests, the pretty wedding venue and outstanding independent vendors. But, BE AWARE - although Blenheim Hill Farm described its wedding package as all inclusive, declared itself transparent and responsive and called its cuisine Michelin quality, we experienced none of that. The venue underperformed. In contract discussions, Blenheim Hill Farm sold us the glamorous farm and the food/service quality. We contracted for a weekend. Friday, an intimate rehearsal dinner, Saturday, an outdoor wedding and a cocktail service in a beautiful covered pavilion both by the pond and followed by a fancy barn reception dinner, Sunday, an outdoor brunch. The pictures were so lovely! Friday at the actual rehearsal dinner, we were routed to steam trays in a hallway under the main barn and we carried our cafeteria food on trays to the cafeteria style tables. Saturday of the wedding, the wedding itself was pretty, like the pictures, but our cocktails were served in an uncovered outdoor patio with inadequate heating and a view of the barn’s outside wall. The reception dinner was served in the very pretty barn but a large number of our guests received overcooked, barely warm food on cold plates. On a gorgeous Sunday, the brunch was served indoors on the same cafeteria tables from the same hallway steam tables. The pricing of these meals, including the 20% admin fee that the venue added to everything: Rehearsal dinner $82.80/pp, Gold Reception Dinner $124.80/pp, Brunch $54/pp. The wedding day alcohol was $69.60/pp for the modest Silver Bar package so our Reception dinner and drink cost $194.40/pp. At the food tasting to select our reception meal (2 months before the wedding) the only entrees offered were chicken or salmon. Beef was available as an expensive upgrade. Blenheim Hill Farm contracted to provide transportation services, and six months later cancelled it. We had to scramble and pay 2.5 times as much to replace the service since many vendors were booked by the date BHF cancelled. Our Blenheim Hill Jefferson rental house, had electronic coded locks on the exterior and guest room doors. Blenheim Hill Farm provided us with a list of lock codes but, after our arrival/check in and without notice to us, changed the codes. Later that day, without notice, they turned off all the door codes and left us with unlocked and unlockable doors for our entire 3 days and 2 nights stay. The prorated room rate for two nights was $514.50 and included no service, no lockable doors including while we slept, small annoyances-no closets, no cellphone coverage in the town, no kitchen knives/cutting boards, closed stairways, junk furniture on the porch... Blenheim Hill Farm did not respond timely or sometimes ever to our emails. They sent us dunning notices for timely payments. They over billed us once, they calculated their 20% admin fee incorrectly to their advantage once, they converted a payment we made in error to a different item without permission. Blenheim Hill Farm’s “all inclusive” contract did not include the items that we had to ordered on their “Roadmap”, a payment portal which lists the extra items. Blenheim Hill Farm did not permit us to see the “Roadmap” until they had a signed contract and payment. Adding coffee and tea after dinner and lime and lemon slices for cocktails increased our reception dinner price to $205.70/pp.

Blenheim Hill Farm was the perfect choice of a venue for our wedding. We were so impressed with the beauty of the property, the caliber of the food, and excellent service of the staff. Having our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception, and housing for the wedding party all in one location made the whole weekend magical. We were able to spend our time enjoying the company of our family and friends and focusing on our special day rather than dealing with the logistics of transportation between different venues. Every guest we had was extremely complimentary of the whole day and all of the details. Folks who flew in from Kentucky and California or drove from Boston immediately came to us saying, “We absolutely understand why you asked us to travel here it’s perfect” and “Thank you for having your wedding here, I never would have discovered this area of the country”. Looking back our wedding weekend was everything we wanted. While there were a few small things that happened unexpectedly, they were quickly responded to by the staff. We wouldn’t have done anything differently if we were to do it all over again. Truly, we are crossing our fingers that we will be invited to a wedding at Blenheim so we have a reason to go back.

My husband and I had our wedding at Blenheim Hill Farm this past weekend 10/26/2024 and it was an absolute dream. Not only was it the dreamiest wedding because we got married in front of all of the people we love, but because of the absolutely beautiful venue and the team that brought it to life. Morten & Min, the owners were so helpful, kind and just the brightest lights from the moment we met them when we toured the venue through the planning phase and our wedding day. They clearly have a very buttoned up and efficient process, which showed the day of. Now let me talk about the rest of staff … they are AMAZING. We worked with Lawrence and Rosie the weeks leading up to our wedding and the day of and not only did they go above and beyond at their jobs, they truly seemed so happy to be there. There were a number of other team members behind the scenes that helped bring together a seamless wedding (we barely even noticed them - in a good way!) so thank you to the team. This includes the chefs cooking it up in the kitchen, while we didn’t see you … we were told by friends and family how delicious the food was / it was the best wedding food they ever had. The risotto…. Oh my was it delicious!! Another amazing benefit of Blenheim Hill Farm was their recommended babysitter, Victoria - she watched 5 of the kids who attended ceremony but not reception right on the grounds. She made arts and crafts and carved pumpkins with them! The parents and kids were very happy with her. Lastly, all we have to say is….. GET MARRIED HERE!!!!

Blenheim is a beautiful property and the perfect location for a Catskills wedding. Min and Morton are accommodating owners who made sure all of our needs were considered and facilitated. If you want to have an upscale barn wedding that is a highly memorable affair this is absolutely the venue for you! The food is amazing, the staff is on top of everything (shoutout to Rosie!), and the setting is gorgeous. We had multiple wedding events (welcome party, wedding, after party and farewell brunch) and every one was amazing!

Our wedding at Blenheim Hill was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we went on our first venue tour to wedding weekend, the staff of Blenheim Hill was communicative, professional and organized. The roadmap they use is a great resource that helps keep you organized through the wedding planning process. We loved having a full weekend at the farm. The service, hospitality, food and drinks were amazing. We dealt with a rainy wedding day and the staff worked with us to ensure a perfect ceremony and reception. We could not have asked for more!

We absolutely loved our wedding at Blenheim Hill Farms!!! It was truly spectacular. The venue is so beautiful and our guests kept commenting about how amazing the setting was. Our ceremony was in the perfect location by the pond and we had a stunning background for all of our pictures. On Friday night it rained and the venue did a great job pivoting to the indoor option for the welcome event. We still had a fantastic night on Friday. Staying at the venue in the farmhouse made everything so seamless for us and our wedding party. We also rented the Virginia Queen in town from Blenheim which was a seamless process. The food was amazing for each event - welcome event, cocktail hour, wedding dinner, brunch on Sunday and lunch getting ready on Saturday. The food was better than most weddings we have been to and our family and friends have been commenting on it after the wedding! The management at Blenheim were also fantastic. They are super organized and were great along the way and super attentive the day of the wedding. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better team to work with or better venue.

We were beyond thrilled with our experience at Blenheim Hill Farm! From the moment we reached out, they handled every detail with such care and professionalism. The venue itself is truly stunning, offering a picturesque backdrop for our special day. The staff were not only kind and attentive but also incredibly accommodating to our needs, making us feel truly special. We really appreciated having all of our events onsite, including the ability to house some of our guests onsite! I'd say the only small challenge was transportation and housing for all of our guests because there aren't many large inns nearby, but in the end it all worked out with guests staying mostly in Jefferson and nearby Airbnbs. Their commitment to excellence and ability to create a magical atmosphere made our wedding day truly unforgettable!

We really couldn’t asked for a better wedding weekend!! It was truly magic. The Blenheim team works really hard to make sure your weekend goes seamless and it really does. We had Maria as our day of coordinator and she really helped blow our expectations out of the water every step of the way. Wish we could relive it all over again!

Blenheim Hill Farm went above and beyond to make our wedding day truly unforgettable. The setting was absolutely beautiful, with the rustic charm and natural surroundings adding a magical touch to the celebration. The staff was incredibly responsive, always there to address any concerns promptly. One thing we truly appreciated was the attention to detail shown by the team. From the decor setup to the meticulous care in service, everything felt personalized and tailored to our vision. The food provided by Blenheim Hill Farm was nothing short of incredible. Our guests raved about the delicious and artfully presented dishes - especially the chicken appetizer. The menu was well thought out, offering a diverse selection that satisfied every palate. We couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out. Another aspect that stood out was the seamless coordination between the various vendors involved in our special day. It made the planning process much smoother and ensured that every element came together seamlessly. We highly recommend Blenheim Hill Farm for any couple looking for a picturesque venue with top-notch service and fabulous food. Our wedding day was truly made perfect by their dedication and professionalism.

We are incredibly grateful to Blenheim Hill Farm for making our wedding weekend absolutely perfect! From the initial planning stages to the last dance, everyone's patience, impeccable service, meticulous organization, and clear communication exceeded our expectations. The venue provided ideal accommodations and lodging for our bridal party, ensuring everyone felt comfortable and special throughout the festivities. Our guests raved about the beautiful setting and flawless execution, which made our celebration truly unforgettable. The food and drinks were amazing, adding an extra layer of delight to our special day. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! -Lacey and Fred

The team at Blenheim were incredibly helpful and a pleasure to work with from planning to execution. They really care about the couple and their guests. They have a lot of experience and are able to make suggestions and what they think would be best for you but are always open to the couples opinion and ultimate decisions. They think of everything from the little details to the big decisions so you should feel well prepared. Our guests could not stop raving about how beautiful the venue is, how professional and helpful the staff are and how delicious their food is. HIGHLY recommend!

We have very mixed feelings about our having our wedding at Blenheim. We were so excited about the venue since it's beautiful and had good reviews however after spending 2 years planning our wedding and having it there, we were left extremely frustrated and disappointed. - First, the pricing was advertised in a way to draw you in - however every little thing is an "upgrade". And expect to pay a 20% admin fee on everything. And no, this does not include gratuity. That is an entirely separate fee - one that they have an entire page on the couple's portal about - and that they will mention at any given chance is not included. They expect 5-10% of your total spend in gratuity. So at minimum, expect to pay 25-30% on top of their listed prices. And don't expect them to concede on prices for anything. We asked what the difference would be if we skipped the appetizer at dinner and their response was that it would not correlate to any savings for us. Really? Not serving a course to 132 people doesn't save you any money? For our 132 guest wedding and 90 guest rehearsal event, we ended up around $50k for venue spend alone (outside vendors separate). - Friday afternoon we showed up to the shock that they had gotten rid of the cocktail hour tent (clear topped tent, right outside reception barn doors) and moved the even to the other side of the barn without telling us. We had spent 2 years planning this and had car loads full of decor and were hit with this when we showed up. To make it worse - there was no apology. Min, one of the owners, instead tried to spin it on us and say they had "invested in the new space" and that other guests had liked it. She even said "well you toured in winter" - in fact, we had been on site 5 weeks prior for our tasting and still no one told us. We were appalled at how she responded their huge mistake. It left us in shock and frustrated just 2 hours before our entire wedding weekend was due to start. - Their communication and planning form system was extremely burdensome. When we first met they sold it to us as if we did not need a wedding planner because they have a "wedding roadmap" that walks you through everything. This is not accurate. What they have is a website and then a set of 10+ forms that take an incredible amount of time to complete. They ask you to outline the entire weekend essentially minute to minute. We also didn't get access to these forms until a month prior to our wedding. Very stressful and not helpful to us at all. - Min, one of the owners, was miserable to work with. She made us feel like we were being cheap every step of the way. Made us feel bad and told us "communication would be difficult" because we did not want to rent out the on site farmhouse. Every question we asked, made us feel we were trying to burden her staff. She really needs to work on her communication skills. Morten, her husband, is much more professional. - The pros: Maria, our day of coordinator, spent the entire day and reception trying to make up for the huge mistake about the change of cocktail hour location and poor communication from upper management. It did not go unnoticed - we can't thank her enough for her efforts. The servers, bar staff, were all wonderful. The food was delicious and the venue setting is breathtaking. We ended up having a wonderful, fun wedding. It's unfortunate that the negatives so strongly outweighed the positives.

My husband and I got married at Blenheim at the end of August. Truly, it was a magical experience—better than we could have imagined. We were initially drawn to Blenheim because they took care of so many elements in house: the catering, the drinks, lodging on site. They provide excellent recommendations for florists, music, and hair/makeup as well. We did have a coordinator, but she made a point to emphasize how organized and on top of it Blenheim was throughout the process and the event management on the day from Blenheim was spectacular (shoutout to Alison!). My partner and I always felt like our questions were met with enthusiasm and everyone worked to make the day the best it could be. The food and drinks were excellent. The venue was gorgeous. We highly recommend booking the farmhouse for the wedding party. It was convenient and fun to have your home base on site for the weekend. Planning a wedding is such a stressful event and we were so glad that we chose a venue that worked so hard to make everything as stress-free as possible. On top of it all, everyone was so nice! Figuring out lodging is a slightly more complicated component, but ultimately having the wedding be a weekend event out of the city made it that much more special. There are tons of airbnbs in the area that cater to the wedding crowd. People hiked, explored nearby towns, and got a taste of the Catskills. Cannot recommend Blenheim enough!

We can’t recommend Blenheim Hill Farm enough! We were lucky enough to have an outdoor ceremony despite spotty weather forecasts for the weekend. Alison and team had both outdoor and tented options ready at a moments notice to ensure we had the best wedding ceremony possible. Guests raved about the food and said it was some of the best wedding food they’ve ever had. The property and barn could not have been more beautiful! We are beyond happy that we had our wedding here and would recommend to everyone. We also stayed in the beautiful farm house and had rehearsal drinks in the brewery barn which were also wonderful. Everyone from the owners to the wait staff to the shuttle driver and everyone in between was welcoming and accommodating.

Seven Ponds was the absolute best place for our wedding. The location is fantastic, the views incredible, and the team is professional, detail-oriented, and fun. From the preparation to the execution day-of, their team made things as easy as possible for us to have the best wedding we could have imagined.

The venue is magical and you have the opportunity to make a 3-4days experience out of it for your family. The prep team is great, responsive, well organized and very flexible. The staff is outstanding, very friendly & warm. The food is explceptional. We had a magical wedding and we highly recommend Blenheim Hill farm

What a dream come true! My husband and I visited several wedding venues and Blenheim was a clear winner because of the team’s attention to detail, holding themselves to a high standard of excellence and of course, the STUNNING venue (your photos and video will be better than you expected). Rebecca, Maria, Morton and Min are outstanding! When the reviews said they’ll walk you through the process and will be your best friend on the big day, it’s true. I am a type A planner and expected the best of my team of vendors. And they certainly delivered; my guests raved about everything from the food to the gorgeous scenery. I loved that the venue had a farmhouse for us to stay at so I didn’t have to worry about logistics for the wedding party. We picked the platinum food package and our guests loved everything from the rehearsal dinner (I’m still dreaming about the feta watermelon salad) to the mushroom risotto. The drinks and afterparty snacks were delicious! Thank you Rebecca, Maria, Morton and Min for supporting us through the wedding planning journey and bringing our dream to life! The Blenheim team is special and you’ll walk away missing them because of how much care and support they give you.

This is an amazing place for a Wedding. We looked at multiple different venues during COVID to try to plan a wedding for 2022 and this was the only venue that brought tears to my eyes. The views at peak time in the fall are breathe taking. The photo opportunities are plentiful to get amazing shots with a lot of different backgrounds. The staff at Seven Ponds go out of their way to meet your every need, and are on top of everything. Lisa, Cassie and Maria were amazing to work with– literally brought my vision to life for our wedding. They take the time to make sure everything is perfect and reinforce that things will run smoothly. The farm house adds a lot of character and Lisa and Cassie made us and our whole crew feel very welcome from the start. The barn is rustic, yet elegant and provided a beautiful place for our reception. The food and flavors that were incorporated for our rehearsal dinner and the wedding is something you experience at a high end restaurant. Our guests still talk about how delicious the meal was and ask how we found this spectacular venue as it is like nothing they have ever experienced before. We wanted a weekend wedding in an intimate setting with family and close friends, Seven Ponds made this dynamic absolutely everything we could have dreamed of and more. We plan to visit next year on our 1 year anniversary! We highly recommend this venue to anyone who is engaged and looking for a remarkable and unforgettable wedding.

The seven ponds was a magical place that made my wife’s dream wedding come true! We had our wedding postponed from 8/14/2021 to 8/13/2022 because of Covid and we had all our vendors secured, including our venue. 3 months before our wedding date, our original venue was forced to close down and we were force to find a new venue. After nonstop of searching for a new venue for 14 days straight, we were bless to find the seven ponds. After contacting them, everything from there went so smoothly. They were so helpful in every way possible because of how little time we had left until the wedding. From the moment we contacted them to the wedding day, everything was perfect and they were so accommodating! In our opinion, the seven ponds beats any ballroom venue around the country because of how magical their property is. The seven ponds is so beautiful, relaxing, and amazing! They were at our disposal every second of the day. My wife and I are nothing but thankful, grateful, and bless to have our dream wedding at seven ponds because it was definitely a memorable moment we will never forget! Thank you so much seven ponds for making our dream wedding come true!

we got married at blenheim hill farm on 10/15/22 and it was incredible-- the temperature was a perfect mid 50s, a bit windy but sunny and every single guest was blown away by the reds, oranges, and yellows of the trees by the lake. the farm is truly perfection in the fall, and an absolutely gorgeous place to get married. maria and rebecca and the whole staff on site were truly a dream all week long. we stayed in the farmhouse starting on the wednesday before the wedding until the monday after, and we really started to feel like a little family. both maria and rebecca were so amazing to work with and made us feel at ease throughout the week, despite feeling like things were kind of falling apart (DJ got COVID, brother, sister and nephews got the flu, horrible downpour the thursday before the wedding that threatened to loom into the weekend). they're both so warm and inviting, and made it really easy for us to contact them with any questions throughout the weekend. everyone working the rehearsal and the wedding wedding itself was so friendly and warm-- special shout out to grace for making sure we had the canapes at our table when we didn't get a chance to enjoy our cocktail hour like we planned and the desserts when we didn't want to get off the dance floor to cut our cake. there were so many deeply touching moments like this throughout the weekend-- a few that really stand out: when i was feeling a bit too nervous at the rehearsal dinner so i didn't eat as much as i should have, so rebecca made me a little to go bag of tacos that she DELIVERED to the farmhouse like the truly angle she is; grace taking the instax camera around the party later in the night to take pictures of guests to put in the guest book for us when they forgot about the book (which was truly such a perfect thing to look through the next day); literally the whole staff checking in with bryan and i all night long to make sure we were properly fed, that we had drinks, that we were feeling happy and having fun; ben putting up with our rather inebriated guests for the shuttle until 3a, even when they didn't want to leave on that last trip. when our car wouldn't start when we were leaving, rebecca came right over with ben to give us a jump and hangout with us a while and let us hangout in the house even though it was well past checkout. one note: i will say that there were a few financial things that were frustrating to deal with prior to the wedding-- we had signed out contract in nov. 2020 but there were changes in policy and costs that we had not been aware of, some of which were more than double what we had contracted. we did feel like a lot of the time we kept trying to be upsold, despite having already spent a considerable amount of money-- and when declining certain aspects, were met with some resistance, or so it was perceived that way by us. nonetheless, these really did not diminish our view of the venue which is why it's still a 5 star from us-- i honestly cannot say enough good things about maria and rebecca and the on-site team. if i could afford another wedding, i would divorce husband just to remarry him at blenheim. thank you so much maria, rebecca, and the whole crew. we miss you guys! <3

Min and Mort and the staff led by Rebecca and Maria really go above and beyond to ensure you have the most perfect day. Aside from all of the normal things you expect, there really is thought in everything that they do.

The staff at Blenheim Hill is absolutely phenomenal. Min, Morten, Maria and Rebecca (as well as SO many more) were incredibly responsive, kind, and unbelievably accommodating to our requests. The wedding was a dream come true. They are experts in hospitality and party/wedding planning. Aside from the wonderful staff the venue is gorgeous in all of the seasons. They make wedding planning a dream, especially because they offer so many services so you do not need to outsource as many vendors as other venues would require you to. They are prepared for everything and anything, even one of the few venues that has a tent on standby in case of rain (most venues leave that up to the couple to rent). The food and signature cocktails were AMAZING. The short rib was out of this world (I’m not a big red meat eater). The canapés were delicious. They were so incredibly attentive , caring and genuinely excited for the bride and groom. They have a house on-site to rent which was incredibly helpful for the bridal party. We rented local air bnbs down the road (10 min away) and the rest were bigger hotels in Windham. I cannot praise the Blenheim team enough, truly. As a laid back bride but yet extremely picky, the team made everything a dream, and helped direct me on decisions I was unsure of. They took care of our immediate family with just as much importance as the Bride and Groom. Our parents were SO impressed. They also don’t have a curfew, which was amazing as some venues do. Hands down, the best night of my life so far. I cannot thank them enough, they felt like family.

Our experience with Blenheim was outstanding. The entire staff went out of their way to make sure we had the wedding of our dreams and, more importantly, that all of our family and friends felt well taken care of. Their attention to detail is unmatched and you can feel how passionate the entire team is about everything they do. They did an incredible job of balancing differing expectations between family members, communicating thoroughly, and remaining a calming and encouraging presence throughout the whole process. Blenheim is also just a spectacular place to get married! My husband grew up on a farm and loves to fish, while I love camping and hiking. The fact that we got to get married on a charming farm near our hometowns while taking breaks to fish and hike throughout the weekend was the perfect cherry on top of everything. The property is beautiful! Whether you want photos by a dreamy pond or moody photos by a graveyard or ethereal photos in the woods (all options on their property) you will not be disappointed. Not to mention, their food is fantastic. Like out of this world fantastic! I myself have celiac disease and they were so accommodating and thorough in making sure I always had enough to eat and that my family members with dietary restrictions were also taken care of. I never felt like I was missing out on anything. Everything was so delicious! We did a brunch on their property the day after the wedding too and my guests are still raving about that brunch haha. I could not recommend Blenheim Hill Farm enough as the perfect place to get married. Min, Morten, Rebecca, Maria and the rest of the team are all lovely to deal with. And if that’s not enough, you can hang with the cute animals too while you’re there!

We got married in September of this year. The farm is a perfect setting for a wedding. The staff was professional and helped make a stressful day run smoothly. The food was really good as well. The farmhouse was a great way for families to get to know one another.

Blenheim Hill Farm was absolutely perfect for our dream fall wedding.  The venue is so beautiful, and each location on the farm is tailored perfectly for every part of the event. My personal favorite part was being able to stay on site at the farmhouse to really be able to soak up every last part of my wedding. The team is also incredibly thoughtful and professional - many of our guests commented on how seamlessly the event ran and how lovely the staff were. Not to mention the delicious food and drinks! Highly recommend!

We got married on August 13th at Blenheim Hill Farm and it was a spectacular event! I imagine that everyone feels like their wedding day is perfect no matter what, but our was literally truly PERFECT! The team at Blenheim are super-pros at managing events so the first thing to know is that every single detail of your event will be well planned out and we’ll managed. They leave no stone unturned so that your day just flows seamlessly and feels very magical. The grounds, the barns, the pond, the outdoor spaces and the arch where the ceremony takes place are all stunning and very well kept. The food is both beautiful to look at and delicious! Everything was very fresh as it’s locally grown. We really enjoyed having the farmhouse to stay in and the ladies lounge for hair and makeup on the day of the event. I think the most important part of the day was the fact that Maria and the other staff genuinely cared about us and that our day go seamlessly, so in addition to doing a great job with the flow of events and exceptional service, they were also on point with little details of care needed for our family. This made the day even better. I have an elderly mother who needed extra support and the team ensured her care. I had a friend who needed to bring a support dog and she was welcomed with open arms. All of our guests were treated like VIPs and they are still raving about the day. We are so grateful we chose Blenheim for our wedding and can’t say enough good about the top notch quality of every aspect of the event! Thank you to Maria, Mort and Min for all of your support in making it a perfect day for us!

Our Wedding was 10/15/22 and it was the best day ever! From the very beginning of finding the venue and saying yes to Seven Ponds Farms, it was such an easy and stress free process. The owners Min and Mort are amazing and their staff goes above and beyond to make sure the day went without a hitch. Maria was a such a help from making sure all of our documents were correct and that all of our questions about the venue were answered in a timely manner. Our Day of Coordinators were amazing both Lisa and Cassey made sure every single aspect of the day from getting our bridal party down the aisle to working with us with the vendors. The whole Day was so smooth and stress free. The food selection was perfect and everyone raved about the menu and dessert. I could have not picked such a perfect and magical places to get married to my best friend. I hope whoever sees this review jumps at the opportunity to have their magical day at Blenheim hill or their sister farm Seven Ponds!

We had our wedding at Blenheim Hill Farm this past July, and it was truly the best. As they say, the day itself flies by, but after months of working closely with Maria, Min, Morten, and the rest of the Blenheim team, we felt confident heading into the weekend and were able to enjoy every moment of it. I would highly recommend booking the farmhouse for the weekend and hosting a welcome dinner - it gave us so much extra time with family and friends, all of whom traveled to celebrate with us. On our wedding day, the staff completely took over the management of our few outside vendors and we got to relax and soak it all up. One last thing... the FOOD! It was actually delicious. I know they say there's a low bar for quality when you're feeding 200 people, but somehow the staff pulled it off and everything was really, really excellent. Thank you to the Blenheim team for making our day so special <3

This place is truly magical. Breathtaking views and and a magical experience. Additionally,what made it more special was the staff. I can’t put into words the love and gratitude I have for Maria and Rebecca. These two women are the bread and butter in my opinion. My most memorable day in my life is because of these two and how they made my wedding the most special day ever. They are not just employees , but truly made me feel like family. I will forever cherish how wonderful they were and how professional they were as well. I highly recommend booking your event here. You will be over the moon like I was.

Everything about Blenheim is a dream, from the location, to the food, to the staff. We felt taken care of every step of the way and had a gorgeous day with family and friends. The food was spectacular and months after our guests still talk about the risotto! The farmhouse on the venue grounds is beautiful and so convenient as a place to get ready and hang out before the wedding. The staff could not have been more helpful and professional. We had to move our wedding date three times due to COVID and everyone we worked with at Blenheim was so understanding and flexible in helping us reschedule and make sure that when we ultimately had our wedding, it would be just as special as we originally imagined.

We got married in June at Blenheim Hill Farm and it was the most amazing weekend of our lives. The staff were incredible from start to finish, they were full of such great energy and gave me and my wife everything we needed. They over delivered on all areas, from the amazing food which guests still talk about to each small detail. We couldn't have imagined getting married anywhere else!!

First, I would like to exclude Rebecca and the entire kitchen/bar staff from this review. They all get five stars for the excellent service. The food was excellent. My guests said it was the best wedding food they had ever tasted! And the venue itself is beautiful -- a lot of hard work has gone into making it beautiful and I had a lot of feedback from guests about how much they loved the property. Unfortunately, that does not make up for the stress of dealing with this venue. They are inflexible and were downright unpleasant to work with. Here's the short list: - They forgot to make and serve the dessert we paid for (flourless chocolate cake) - they refused to accommodate a half hour change in ceremony start time and couldn't really give us an explanation why - They promised to bring us appetizers from the cocktail hour directly to us after the ceremony, but we never got it. So we did not get to eat any of the appetizers that were served to our guests. We heard from our guests it was delicious. - The venue coordinator came to me the day before the wedding requesting that I provide her "clarification" on the seating chart and meals for guests. Not sure why she was bothering me the day before the wedding for items I had been trying to address with her for months. - Despite paying thousands of dollars in cleaning fees there was mouse feces in the bathroom. - I got a nasty text message from the venue coordinator the day after the wedding telling me I had ruined her Memorial Day vacation because I did not inform her in time about a late checkout. She was notified but still insisted on bringing over a cleaning crew. - The venue disliked my wedding planner, and claimed she was rude and insulting to the guests and staff. That's not really their place to make judgment on my vendors which I found pretty incredible. None of my guests had an issue with her--in fact, I heard from multiple people she did a great job at running wedding efficiently and honestly it would have been absolute chaos without her there. All in all, would I get married here again? The answer is NO WAY. There are a surplus of beautiful barn venues in upstate New York where you can have a very nice wedding. Don't think you are going to save any money -- their payment structure is deceiving, with add ons, additional charges, etc etc. And on top of that, the location is a pain in the butt. Logistically, many guests had issues getting to the venue and/or finding lodging. And don't be fooled by the good reviews-- I was. I happen to know a bride who got married here who had a similar experience and many negative reviews have seemed to have vanished from this site... I really, really don't want another bride going through what I went through. So please, go pick another venue!!

The venue has a beautiful view of the lake and the surrounding mountains. All of the guests complimented us on how wonderful the wedding was. Given that they have a sister restaurant in NYC, having an in-person meeting and a tasting was very easy and convenient And a special shout out to Lisa who made the day of planning and coordinating stress-free! Thank you!

Our wedding was on Saturday, July 2nd 2022, and we had an absolute blast! The night went on without a hitch, people were praising the food and service, and we felt very taken care of – all thanks to Blenheim’s team of superheroes. Maria and Rebecca went above and beyond to ensure we had everything planned out and everything we needed, we cannot praise their level of service and care enough! They are also dog friendly, which was perfect for us since we wanted our dog, Leia, to be part of the ceremony. She was able to freely roam the grounds and enjoy the coziness of the Farmhouse all weekend. We brought in our own favors, cake, signage, candles, etc., and their team assisted us every step of the way to make sure things were laid out exactly how we imagined. Our guests were raving about the location, the service, the flow, and – unsurprisingly, if you’ve read the other reviews – the food. It could not have been a more perfect day, and we cannot thank their Blenheim team enough! The grounds were renovated in early/mid 2022, and are stunning. Pavers leading from the Farmhouse to the ceremony site, pavers leading to cocktail hour, and a new propane fire pit outside of the Brewery Barn. They have also added wall-mounted AC units in the reception barn, in case you are worried about the summer heat. The Farmhouse is kept nice and cool as well, as there is a large AC unit in the living room, plus additional wall-mounted AC units. All-in-all, we are exceedingly pleased with Blenheim and their team. From the moment we arrived on Thursday, up until our departure on Sunday, everything was perfect! Thank you for a magical weekend, Blenheim!

My wife and I had an all-around exceptional experience with Blenheim Hill Farm for our wedding two months ago. The team of people we worked with from our first meeting to the big day were kind, patient, responsive and detail-oriented in ensuring that we had the best wedding weekend possibile. Our wedding (originally scheduled for October 2020) was postponed by a year, and the Blenheim team was very transparent and communicative throughout the pandemic regarding changing plans and COVID protocols. The food, the atmosphere, the decorations and everything about the venue/property were incredible. The venue is remote, but the Blenheim team offered many helpful suggestions for local lodging, transportation options and details that we could share with our guests to ensure they knew and had all they needed. The advice, vendor lists and timeline/roadmap that the Blenheim team shared were so helpful in our planning and keeping things on track. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our terrific wedding weekend coordinators (Maria and Rebecca) were both always on hand to ensure we knew what to expect and that things ran smoothly, while also giving us space and freedom to enjoy the experience with each other and with our family, friends and guests. They truly enriched the experience for us, especially as we navigated the cold weather, the threat of rain and all of the unexpected little things that came up in the 11th hour. We could not be happier with the Blenheim Hill Farm wedding experience.

When my husband and I were touring Blenheim in 2019, we immediately fell in love with the setting, the barn, the décor, and the animals! We signed on the spot for a date 9 months away as we knew we needed to have Blenheim as our wedding venue. As a dietitian, the farm-to-table food was particularly appealing and totally amazing (guests are still talking about how delicious the food was!)! It was the perfect venue for our special day. I also need to point out that the staff at Blenheim were incredible on our wedding day. Like many other couples, we had to reschedule our wedding due to the pandemic. We were very grateful for the support and communication during that difficult time from the Blenheim staff (although we do think it could have been a bit better as it was extremely stressful and sometimes would have to email them a few times to get a response). On our wedding day, all of the staff (from the managers, to servers and bartenders) truly were so awesome and addressed our every need and made us feel cared for. My guests were extra fond of the bartenders for their great personalities and stiff pours ;) Sylwia brought us cocktails and a tasting of all of our cocktail hour food to the pond while we were taking pictures in the rowboat as she knew we would probably not be able to eat much once we got up to the tent - it turned into such a special moment for my husband and I to collect ourselves before the main event. The staff even had my sneakers ready to go in anticipation that I would need to take my heels off after our first dance, and even brought my heels back to the farm house so I would not lose them! Little things like that did not go unnoticed and truly made our experience there such a happy one. Our day was so perfect and worth the wait! We highly recommend this venue for the food, setting, and of course the staff! Thank you Blenheim for making our wedding so special!!

Here’s my honest review of Blenheim. I’ll start with the positive. I had my wedding here in Oct of 2021. The positive: The property is a very beautiful & special place. The staff “on site” is spectacular. The food is delicious. The negative: My guests left hungry....an entire bus traveling back to my hotel stopped at Wendy’s. (I was promised by the owner my guests would be full). Unless you eat like I bird, you will be starving. They will charge you for EVERY LITTLE THING. For example: 300$ fee to use their speakers (which are installed in the barn that you are renting) on the night of the rehearsal dinner. The crudités platter during cocktail hour (for 150 people) was EMBARRASSING (see photo). The are absolutely horrendous at responding to phone calls, emails, voicemails. There’s more but I don’t have the time & you should save yours by looking into other venues. Conclusion: I would not have my wedding here again. The positives did not out weight the negative. Extremely stressful process. DONT RECOMMEND.

THE GOOD Blenheim is an INCREDIBLE choice for a wedding venue. What made Blenheim truly special is the staff. They are a close-knit team and provide the deepest value to the Blenheim experience. Maria and Benjiy are consummate professionals and absolute masters of their craft. We cannot overemphasize the deep contributions they made to our wedding as managers of day-of events. They both have VERY bright futures in the hospitality industry. Lisa, Rebecca, and Sylwia (each with roles varying from day-of coordination, bartending, supervising service, etc) also made remarkable contributions and deserve special recognition. The chef and kitchen staff prepared food that was EXQUISITE. Unsung hero of the day: the young lady responsible for cleaning the farmhouse. She ensured we were able to enter the farmhouse an hour early and was extremely professional in completing her tasks. There is a long list of reasons why Blenheim is such a special place, but the quality of the staff is at the top of that list. THE BAD Due to COVID, our wedding was rescheduled nearly 11 months after the original date. We were offered a 10% discount on additional headcount for food and beverage, which was very generous. However, as our wedding approached, we noticed the updated contract didn’t include the discount. Unaware of an expiration date attached this discount, we questioned why it hadn’t been applied. We assumed we had missed a note and were prepared to concede the discount. However, we needed to do our due diligence to confirm that the error was ours. Blenheim did eventually honor the discount (which we very much appreciated), but our issue was with the final message we received on the topic. This final message from one of the owners was demeaning and unacceptable. This owner stated that, “If our onsite team of 25+ staffers found out this is how you are nickel and diming, they could become concerned that they may not even be receiving tips from you for the weekend. And that is not a cloud I want hanging over any of them.” My husband and I are both very caring people. We understand the incredible importance of tips for staff. It is a critical component of their compensation. When someone questions our ability or willingness to tip staff, it is not a comment on our financial wellbeing. It is an attack on our character. It implies greed, selfishness, and a disregard for those doing the heavy lifting (literally and figuratively) for our event. As evidenced by our actual tip to the staff, this is NOT who we are. We wanted to give this owner the benefit of the doubt and requested a phone call so we could smooth things over. At this point, we were less than a month out from the wedding date. We were denied this phone call. Instead, we received a dismissive e-mail handwaving the issue by claiming “no hard feelings.” This demonstrated the lack of intent to resolve the issue, as well as a lack of empathy for their clients. We arrived to the venue on our wedding day having been insulted by one of the owners, and our attempt to remedy the disagreement was rebuffed. This is an important experience to share with other potential clients. Among both owners, we were exceptionally pleased with the professionalism of the other owner. However, as we leave this 5-star review, please know that it is a testament specifically to the employed staff who make Blenheim such a special place.

Blenheim Hill Farm is a beautiful and idyllic venue for a wedding. The staff is professional, helpful, friendly, and fun! They made our wedding weekend flawless and all our events ran so smoothly and effortlessly. And one of our favorite things was that they are totally dog friendly. Our 3 dogs were part of the ceremony and parties. Planning a wedding during the pandemic was especially stressful but once we arrived at the farm the staff went above and beyond to make all our events from the rehearsal dinner to the after party as stress free as possible and we couldn’t have asked for a better wedding weekend!

Blenheim Hill Farm is a beautiful venue and really a wonderful place to get married. It has idyllic visuals, a warm courteous and committed staff, great locations for each wedding event, and fantastic food. Practically everything you need is there for you at the rustic farmhouse and we truly felt at home all week gearing up for the ceremony. We got a little nervous at the lack of communication in the weeks leading up to the big day but we understood that the venue was busy planning and throwing many great weddings in a very short time. It turns out our fears were unwarranted because the weekend really went off without a hitch. Well one hitch maybe. We wish we had ensured there was a stronger vegetarian option for the Welcome Dinner tacos but that was really our only complaint the whole weekend. Everyone loved the reception dinner, the cocktail hour drinks and appetizers and the reception barn was beautifully decorated and only got more lovely as the night went on. The staff was warm, responsive and really went out of their way to make us feel special. We have no regrets booking Blenheim for our wedding and would recommend it to any couple looking for a beautiful bucolic atmosphere to share with their loved ones. Thank you so much for an unforgettable weekend!

Blenheim Hill Farm is a beautifully alluring and magical place for a wedding. When my husband and I were touring, we immediately fell in love with the red barn, the charming farmhouse, and the animals. We were drawn to the farm-to-table catering, and chef Eduardo prepared masterful plates that our guests loved. It was a majestic venue that perfectly fit our happy day. In addition to the venue itself, the Blenheim staff were incredible. Like many other couples, we had to reschedule our wedding three times due to the pandemic. Blenheim staff Sylwia, Min and Morton were incredibly supportive, communicative, and flexible during rescheduling. On our special day, every staff (from the managers, to servers and bartenders) addressed our every need and made us feel so pampered and cared for. Our day was perfect - and Blenheim Hill staff went above and beyond to assure it was so. We highly recommend this venue and truly enjoyed our experience with Blenheim staff. Thank you for making our wonderful day!

First things first, Blenheim is an absolutely magical wedding venue and the staff provides an unparalleled experience! It is an incredible value and we still can't stop grinning about our special day, but also how easy the Blenheim team made things for us in planning. Seriously, we feel so lucky and grateful about how much Blenheim does for you, we were able to enjoy ourselves without stress leading up to the day and stay in the moment the day of. We received so many compliments about how our wedding was one of the best folks have ever been to, and we owe that in large part to the Blenheim team and venue! We live in California and selected Blenheim without ever having visited the farm - it was actually quite an easy decision and the pictures don't even begin to describe how beautiful the property is. It did help that my parents visited in the winter and were greeted warmly by Chef Paul, and that my wife's parents visited Min and Morton in their restaurant in NYC and hit it off. Everything about the Blenheim owners, staff, food, experience, logistics, property, farmhouse was first class and supremely professional, but also fun. The food tasting was such a special time leading up to the event and so much fun, and Min's and Chef's flexibility to accommodate some of our dietary preferences was very much appreciated. I even got to swap in sherry in my "his" cocktail! :) The food was top notch, there is no need for much additional decoration as the barn and property are stunning themselves, the farmhouse is a great place for the families to stay (we stayed there and also hosted a workout of about 50 of our guests the morning of the wedding by the lake!), and the animals added to the atmosphere we were hoping for. I would also say to get the add-ons as they are very reasonably priced and thoughtfully curated - we added a bunch of those special touches to our day like the bonfire and lawn games. Special thanks to Carol and Laura for all of the planning help, Danyelle and Fredrik who were rockstar captains for us the night before and day of, and to Min and Morton for creating such a special setting and team, providing world class hospitality, and being such hands on proprietors ensuring satisfaction at every step of the way. If there is a date at Blenheim open, you should snag it ASAP!

Everyone we worked with at Blenheim was absolutely phenomenal. Min, Morten, Carol and every other staff member was beyond professional and guided us through the overwhelming planning process. They had every aspect covered and helped make this the wedding weekend of our dreams. Every guest raved about the service, decor and of course the food which was the most important aspect for both of us. When you are deciding on a wedding venue, you are basically handing over your trust to a group of people to follow through on your dream and make it a reality. We are so glad we trusted Blenheim to make our wedding dreams come true.

What's not to love? Gorgeous setting, nice & professional people, killer food, and goats. We are two people who are often in charge of events, and it was great to have the Blenheim staff take care of everything and have it run smoothly. We were told by just about every guest it was the best wedding ever (we agree). Highly recommend!

My husband and I were married at Blenheim two weeks ago and we truly cannot say enough good things about our experience! It was an absolutely perfect wedding celebration and the incredible staff at Blenheim helped make it that way. The farm is stunning and the food is delicious but the 5 star treatment is what sets Blenheim apart from other venues. We are both still on Cloud 100! From the moment we decided to have our wedding at Blenheim, we were taken care of. There are so many decisions to make throughout the planning process, and Min, Carol and Laura helped walk us through each decision. We began working with Mina as the time grew closer to our wedding day and words cannot express how absolutely incredible she is. Mina and her team are proactive, decisive, kind, calm, thorough, knowledgable and gracious. We arrived on Wednesday before our wedding and from the moment we arrived on the property, we were greeted with fresh appetizers from the garden. This service continued throughout the weekend with freshly made muffins and other morsels of deliciousness. Mina and her team were accessible during our entire stay at Blenheim and she went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and taken care of. Any type of anxiety that I had going into the weekend was immediately put at bay when greeted by Mina. The wedding ceremony itself was beautiful - truly perfect - and the cocktail hour and reception were amazing. Needless to say, the Michelin star rated food was impeccable. Our guests had a blast and no one wanted it to end. As we relive our amazing wedding weekend through the beautiful pictures and stories, I will always be thankful for the decision we made to have our wedding at Blenheim.
