Words cannot express how happy I am that we got married at Cayuga Shoreline! We live 3 hours away in the Poconos but knew we wanted to get married in the Finger Lakes area. Not only is the beauty of the lake unmatched, the venue itself is so unique, modern and versatile, yet still down to earth and cozy. Our families stayed in the on-site accommodations from Wednesday-Monday which were all very comfortable and clean. The days surrounding our wedding day were so fun for everyone, between the use of the kayaks/canoes, proximity to hiking/wineries and the great food and friendly atmosphere of O'Malleys. Katy was communicative, kind, and went above and beyond to make sure our day was seamless and the service was perfection. Chef Clem was fantastic, he built a wedding menu that was customized to our tastes (Latin-inspired, with gluten free and vegetarian options), the food was incredible and it was one of the standout compliments we continue to get about our wedding! This is where you want to get married if you're not into a cookie cutter ballroom and typical wedding fare. We love that we can come back here for dinners and Sunday brunches, and plan to do so every year. Katy, Clem, and all the staff treated us like family and we are all so grateful for the incredible experience, thank you all!

We had out wedding here August 2025 and had an amazing experience with this venue! The staff was excellent and our guests kept telling us that they'd made friends with them. We had the on-site lodging for immediate family and some friends, with about 100 guests in total, most staying in the area around the venue. We fit in the reception area with tables for all, tho it was a bit of a tight fit. Nothing I haven't seen before, though. We had dancing and cocktail hour on the porch, and all our guests enjoyed time on the docks taking photos. The food and set-up/break-down was easy and I felt so supported as a stressed-out bride. We love Cayuga shoreline and I could not recommend it enough!

My husband and I were recently married at Cayuga Shoreline and our friends and family stayed in the farmhouse and cabins for the weekend. We had a wonderful experience from signing on over a year ago to the very end. We even left my mom’s cake server but the venue staff kept it safe for us until we could pick it up a week after our wedding. The Shoreline is a stunning venue in both rain and shine - we know because we experienced both on our wedding day! The place is unique in that you and your guests can enjoy laid-back lake activities one day and the next, enjoy a stunning formal wedding in the reception space. Steve is very professional, an excellent communicator (with us and with our vendors), and he’s passionate about making your special day as close to perfect as possible. Our memories at Cayuga Shoreline will stick with us forever - we feel we couldn’t have picked a better venue in the Finger Lakes!
Thank you S & B and especially, thank you Amanda and Dym!!! It’s hard to imagine what our wedding would have been like without you guys.

Cayuga Shoreline gave us the dream wedding backdrop with its lovely lake scene and excellent service. Our guests kept talking about how beautiful everything was. We also rented the on-site accommodations — the cottages, farmhouse, and bridal suite — which were all fantastic and made our wedding weekend even more special. I also want to give a special shoutout to Clem the chef who customized our wedding menu! Our menu was genuinely a 10/10 experience and unlike the typical wedding fare. Our guests are still talking about the delicious food! They also arranged for wine slushies as our welcome drink, which was a massive hit! O'Malleys, located right next door, served as an ideal spot for our afterparty. It offered a cozy, cabin-like atmosphere with a wooden flair that perfectly contrasted our reception. Plus, it was just a 10-step walk away! The venue overall was beautiful and unique and had everything we wanted.

My husband and I had our wedding here. Our day was perfect despite the weather trying it’s best to ruin it. Much of the success was due to how amazing the staff were, from setting up a indoor and outdoor ceremony options, helping us pivot depending on what the weather was doing, making sure we had everything we needed. If you’re looking for an event space I cannot recommend this venue enough!

The venue was beautiful. The staff made my day perfect. They were super helpful from last minute decorations to helping me with my train while walking down the isle. Thank you for putting up with the perfectionist in me and seeing my vision. Amazing people to work with on the best day of your life. Couldn’t of asked for a better experience.

We held our small wedding reception at Cayuga Shoreline last month and it was the best decision!! All of our family and friends couldn't stop talking about how perfect it was- the location on the water, the warm yet modern (with a touch of rustic charm) indoor space, the airy covered porch, and wonderful staff were all highlights of the perfect day.
In working with Joe and Adrianne on preparations, I can honestly say that they both provided the most exceptional service with such genuine care about us and helping me make sure the day would be as perfect as it was. They even accommodated a special batch drink request of our "family drink" for our big toast and they made sure it was perfect.
We did all of the coordination via email from out of state and it was a true pleasure meeting them in person when we arrived.
Exceptional service and a beautiful venue!!
