We had our wedding at CV Rich Mansion on October 1st. From start to finish we were so happy with our choice! We'd been to a ton of weddings in the area and feel like we found a hidden gem in our own backyard. We booked in May 2020 and one of t...
he most important things to us was flexibility with all of the uncertainty with the pandemic. Throughout the process, we felt re-assured and comforted knowing our venue was flexible and keeping up with the latest updates. During planning, we worked mostly with Christine, who was supportive, responsive and made sure all the details were taken care of. On the day of, Michelle took over and truly handled everything so we didn't have a single worry! We had a million questions and they both handled everything we threw at them! All of our guests raved about the food and we were thrilled with how everything turned out. Shout out to Chef Rob for an awesome tasting and truly unique wedding food! All in all - this was everything we wanted in a venue: local, unique, simple space, amazing food and plenty of room for dancing! We highly recommend CV Rich and Caperberry for all catering needs!

I booked CV Rich Mansion in the middle of the Covid pandemic (summer 2020) for June 2022. Over the next 2 years, Christine was so helpful in quickly answering any and all questions. I was a very type-A bride and I am sure I was not easy to deal...
with at times, but Christine never made any question feel annoying or too small. Christine was also really accommodating with any special requests (e.g., unique signature drinks, food tweaks, etc.) Our guests RAVED about the food - multiple people told us it was the best wedding food they ever had. The venue speaks for itself. It is STUNNING both indoors and outdoors. It also feels so intimate -- like you are in a friend's home for the evening. I have absolutely no regrets about booking CV Rich mansion for my wedding and look forward to working with Caperberry hopefully in the future.

The CV Rich Mansion was the PERFECT venue for our wedding in May. The beautiful garden and patio area was worth it on its own, but the ballroom tied the whole event together. In late May the garden was blooming with white and pink flowers, and ...
the landscape was great to have our guests walk around and enjoy the scenery during the cocktail hour. The house part of the mansion also offered great space for the different food stations the Gold package came with. Christine was our event coordinator and she was very helpful in planning all the details for the event. This was only the second venue we toured and I immediately fell in love and am so happy with our decision to have our wedding reception here. We could not have asked for a more perfect venue for our perfect day.

got married on September 25, 2021 and had the most beautiful wedding at the CV Rich Mansion - the party, the food and the catering service was just phenomenal and that is due to the hard work of Caperbery Events. We loved our wedding reception ...
and it was perfect. My friends and family also LOVED our wedding and are still raving about the food and the venue three months later (people couldn't believe that they drive past it all the time and didn't know how beautiful it was!) I would definitely 1000% recommend this venue and Caperberry Events, but I caution brides that if working with Christine, she was not the most responsive and there were so many times I had all these questions of "where are the table seating plans" "when can i drop off things at the venue" "when do I finalize the menu" "when do we schedule our food tasting" and I had to be proactive with Christine and take initiative because she was too busy to do so. Both my husband and I felt often "lost" and was unsure of what came next in the wedding planning. It was challenging for me to be proactive with Christine (especially while working a full-time job) because I felt that it should have been the other way around - she should be asking me these questions and telling me when things need to be finalized and what needs to be done because she plans events all the time. I do stress that I liked Christine and thought she was very nice but would definitely recommend brides that work with Christine and use this venue will have to put the time in up front in making sure things get done.

Hello Andrea- Thank you so much for sharing your feedback with us. As for staffing, like most of the Hospitality Industry we experienced a labor shortage due to the pandemic, so everyone was wearing a lot of hats and working hard to supplement ...
as we were coming back to the world being open. However, since your wedding happened 2 months ago we are happy to say we are back to being fully staffed with new fresh talent. Thank you for your kind compliments also, happy to hear you enjoyed your beautiful day at our special venue! Best Wishes to you and Colin.

Our ceremony in the garden was beautiful and our photographers got some great shots of us on the grounds and inside the house. I loved that our guests were able to explore different rooms during the cocktail hour and everyone raved about the food. The ballroom for the reception was set up beautifully and was exactly how I had pictured it. We had 140 guests and there was more than enough room for dancing and our photo booth. I really couldn't have asked for a better experience - everything from the rehearsal the day before to us heading home at the end of the night was handled completely seamlessly. After a year+ of planning it was so nice to feel confident handing off everything to such an awesome staff. Couldn't recommend more!

Each one I personally talked to congratulated me with such enthusiasm it felt like they were an extension of the guest list. I don't remember everyone's names (they all deserve so much praise) except for Michelle, who I felt went above her duties in carrying my train and veil so it didn't get dirty, and making sure I was fed and hydrated.

isited a few venues that fit this description, but we knew CV Rich was it once we toured and met with Elisabeth. A few weeks later, the free tasting that they held for potential guests, solidified the deal. It was like a mini wedding with cocktail hour and reception. You could taste how great the food was, and see how your wedding would flow. A few months before the wedding, our original contact person, Elisabeth, had left. Unfortunately, I feel there was a bit of mismanagement with how her transition was handled. However, once we were connected with Jessica, we knew we would be fine. She picked up right where Elisabeth left off. She was cheery, professional, and attentive. These traits were showcased on our wedding day as well. She is great at her job. Our guests raved about the gorgeous venue, the delish food, and the excellent service. The food and service really elevates what already is an amazing venue option. We are so grateful that we selected CV Rich & Caperberry Events to host our most special day!!!

In the year leading up to the wedding, she was a source of help, knowledge, and comfort. On the wedding day itself, we felt lucky to be in her capable hands. Everything was smooth, and even the hiccups big (rain!) and small (bus of guests coming early!) were handled seamlessly. Our guests raved during and after the wedding about the venue and the delicious food, and our pictures (even on a rainy day) reflected the beauty of CV Rich and the amazing time we had there.

She took note of everything we wanted for the night and how we wanted it to flow and it all went perfectly. She opened the venue for us in the morning in order to spend most of the day there getting ready before we headed to the church. It felt like we were getting ready in a cozy home- very comforting feeling for the morning of your wedding. I would do it all again and pick this venue! Highly recommend!

When I got there I decided i didn’t want to be seen cocktail hour so I stayed in the bridal suit, the person assigned to me came up once. Once we were ushered into the ball room everything was so rushed to the point my dad had to say something ( my dad is a very laid back person). All throughout the night I had to ask them a bunch of stuff pertaining to my favors which weren’t out. The sparkerlers which weren’t out... where my signs were. At exactly 9pm they started to pack up the center pieces with people still there. They started rushing us out the door to the point where I misplaced the flower girls basket and the ring pillow.

All of the guests spoke about the food and how good it was and how much of it there was. The house makes for a lovely cocktail hour as there is so much space to sit or walk around without being crowded. We had tables outside but no one went out as it was so hot that day. If you book, go for the tasting they do from time to time as it will give you a good idea of the set-up and what you like or do not like. Our favorite was the BBQ station. The day of the wedding was really hot and Joanna had anticipated that it would rain or be really hot so earlier in the week, she called to talk about what we wanted to do and together we opted to do the wedding indoors. While my preference would have been those amazing gardens, it was the right call and everything was beautiful either way. The cake is amazing too - one of our favorites and again we were able to customize the cake. We have the bridal party children at the reception and Joanna helped us ensure they had food they would eat as well. I wish we had another wedding soon so I could go back to CV Rich and celebrate some more. The last piece I will share is that we were actually able to enjoy the reception as things ran so smoothly. The one issue we encountered and created (one couple was not on our list and needed seats) was handled swiftly and well. THANK YOU CAPERBERRY.

It was a chilly fall day and initially we were a little disappointed that we had to bring the ceremony inside since we had wanted to have it in the gardens outside (we decided to bring it inside after the weather report said it would be low 50’s and windy)… but it ended up being more beautiful than we could have imagined, and our guests were very happy that they were warm and comfortable! We were married in front of a window in the ballroom, where you could see the beautiful yellow leaves behind us, so we still got that fall feel we were looking for (it came out great in photos, too!). For our menu, we got the platinum package to satisfy our big Italian family, and two months later they are still raving about how much food there was and how delicious it all tasted (and they are a tough crowd to please… so that says a lot!).

It is so incredibly different from all the “wedding factory” type of venues we’ve been to—it is full of charm, history, and has an “at-home” feel that I’ve never experienced at a formal event before. I couldn’t have picked a better place for a fall wedding—it was so cozy, with tea light candles everywhere, and the foliage was visible through all the windows throughout the building. Joanna and her team were so helpful throughout the entire process, and paid attention to every detail and request we had. She was always prompt in answering our questions, and made sure that our big day had everything we wanted… including an ice luge and pumpkin beer (my favorite!)! I also loved that on 10/19, the focus was completely on us—unlike other venues, only one wedding takes place there at a time, so you are the main focus and are treated that way. We could not be happier with the day we had, and are so grateful to Joanna and the Caperberry team for giving us such an incredible memory to treasure for the rest of our lives.

After looking at other old-mansion-style venues in Westchester County, we settled on the CV Rich Mansion and Caperberry for the charm, value, and service. We especially liked the cozy feel of a cocktail hour in the library and other rooms of t...
he house before heading into the ballroom. Joanna was fantastic. While we didn't initially choose the venue because of her, she turned out to be invaluable in making sure that everything ran smoothly and was in place at the right time. She was always calm and patient, even in the middle of a flurry of activity. Joanna is a real pro, who obviously has successfully handled more weddings than she can count, but still gives each one the attention that it needs. We were also pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. We attended a tasting at the venue and enjoyed the food, but the food on our wedding day was even better than at the tasting, which was a real treat. The only area that could use some improvement is the quality of the wine that is included. We weren't happy with it at all, but they let us bring in our own wine at no cost, although they didn't reduce the total cost. Ultimately, though, it was a better value to buy wine that we liked rather than pay to upgrade with the venue. Overall, it was a terrific experience and we can't say enough good things about the venue and especially Joanna, who made sure everything went according to plan.

My husband and I were looking at a lot of venues that could accommodate a garden wedding, which we both wanted. Most were very expensive and out of our price range. Then we saw CV Rich on The Knot and had kind of forgotten about it! I'm gla...
d we rediscovered it. The grounds are beautiful. Really. They custom designed a menu that was not outrageously expensive for us, although they are a *top-tier* wedding venue. They let us bring our own cake, which is difficult at some other venues. We lucked out and our wedding day was sunny and 70 degrees, and everyone (including us) had a very, very perfect day. After the ceremony we walked in through the doors off of the covered porch and danced the night away! The staff was so wonderful and helpful, I would get married here again!

We had our wedding this past weekend at the CV Rich mansion. It was wonderful in every way and much of that is due to Joanna, Caperberry and the beautiful venue. Joanna is knowledgeable and experienced. She had the answers to all our question...
s and guided us through the planning as necessary. She made sure the wedding events went smoothly and that enabled us to relax and enjoy the ride. She also had the perfect words for me just before I was to walk down the aisle. Much appreciated! The food by Caperberry is amazing. The waitstaff is very capable. They had many of the same staff as over a year ago when we attended another wedding (at a different venue), so it certainly seems that they treat their staff well and retain good employees. And the mansion is just gorgeous. We had our ceremony outside. The gardens are lush and very well cared for. The cocktail hour was on the patio and in the rooms of the mansion. Then we moved into the ballroom for the reception. It was wonderful in every way and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend the venue to everyone!

meone who really could make everything be just right. We could not have found a better event planner or a more beautiful venue. Two couples who were at the wedding are already telling us they are thinking about the venue for their kids' weddings! The service was great - the wait staff were fabulous, they glided amongst the guests and kept the food coming at all times. And everyone raved about the food - quantity, quality, variety and flavor! We lucked out with the weather and were able to have the ceremony outside on the beautiful patio. Joanna made the switch from an indoor ceremony that morning and had everything arranged quickly and smoothly, as if we had always planned it that way! The five-room mansion is elegant but not stuffy, and worked perfectly for our smaller, more casual reception. The DJ and bar were in the sunroom at one end, and cocktail tables were set up in the tea room at the other end, so our older guests did not have to "endure" the music that the younger guests were dancing to. The passed h'ors d'ouevres and appetizer stations allowed guests to fill and refill their plates with their favorite foods, and eat outside or inside. The furniture arranged in small converstion groups in the living room and library allowed our guests to easily catch up with relatives or meet new people. The pricing plans were flexible enough to accomodate exactly the event we wanted, and very reasonable, but with no stinting on quality. Joanna's recommendations on DJ and photographer were right on target, too. We will have wonderful memories for many years to come!

We were married at the CV Rich Mansion on Friday, August 17th 2012. Our experience prior to the wedding and on the wedding day was exceptional; the venue and staff were above our expectations and did everything to make our dream day come true....
The venue is a historic Victorian mansion; with culture and personality. It is not a modern, clean and perfect venue instead it is a grand home with lots of personal character and warmth. The “imperfections” are just perfect. The upkeep on this property is exceptional; the landscaping (which is vast) is also beyond beautiful. When you enter it, you cannot help but feel as if you stepped into your own grand home. Joanna Mallone, our main contact and planner for the venue. She is a patient, meticulous, honest, sweet and caring person. She dedicates her all to her client; she made us feel as if we were the only wedding or event that she had that whole summer. She is swift on communication and had no problems answering all of our questions or catering to our many needs. The staff for the mansion are also amazing. They are all so polite and outgoing for their guests that we truly felt like royalty the day of our wedding. The food was the icing on the cake. There was not a dry chicken in sight! The groom accidentally walked into the kitchen the morning that we were getting married and he saw the chefs individually braising each chicken for our event…we figured it would be put in the oven but to cook everything individually shows that this place cares about their client. There is a large food selection that is given to you and you cannot go wrong in any choice. Our guests are still raving about the food and no one went home hungry. The drinks, again cannot remotely be terrible at this wonderful place. The bartenders were very courteous to our friends who love to drink and were bombarding them. They remembered everyone’s drinks, were heavy handed and lightened up when they needed to be. This venue is perfect for: 1. Smaller wedding parties (four bridesmaids/groomsmen max) …. If you plan on getting ready at the Mansion. 2. The couple who wants to have something different than the norm, this is not a wedding factory location. 3. The couple who wants personalized service. 4. The couple who is easy going because the staff here sure will be as easy going with you, and further go out of their way for you. 5. The couple who focuses on food, tasty food and lots of it! If we could rewind time we would relive this moment over and over. It was perfect and we would like to thank Caperberry Events and the CV Rich Mansion, most of all Joanna Mallone for being an integral part in our wedding and making it just spectacular.

We looked at a lot of reception sites, and did not want to settle for the same old look, or the 'wedding factory.' Oh, and I almost forgot the food is incredible; creative choices that are guests are still talking about. We had a wonderful experience and I would not have changed a thing about this venue.
