Lush Garden Venue for Whimsical Weddings
My husband and I threw our 10 year anniversary party at Meadowlark and it couldn't have been better! Jennifer, the planner at Meadowlark, was wonderful to work with and made the entire planning and day of experience as easy as possible. She helped coordinate with the caterer, rental and tent companies and knew exactly what tent and rentals work for the property. We had 150 guests, including 60 children and the venue was perfect. Not only was it beautiful, but it had enough space for a giant tent / lawn furniture and the kids to dance, run around and play lawn games. Was the perfect venue for our celebration!

Five stars doesn’t feel like enough. We got married here on August 29th, and from our very first visit to the last song of the night, Jennifer and her team made our whole experience as easy and fun as possible. This venue is a true dream setting, and blows any other venue in the North Fork out of the water!

My husband and I were fortunate enough to host our wedding reception at Meadowlark this fall. A little older than the average newlyweds, and with extremely busy careers, we made th...
e absolute best choice and have zero regrets. As wine lovers who live in NY, we thought a winery on Long Island would be close enough to home and most inclusive of our close friends and family.
I knew I didn't want to host a reception at a stuffy catering hall that churns out cookie cutter weddings like a factory. Meadowlark is unique in every way-- gorgeous and classy, and there's even a wine cellar for the after party. Literally every corner of the property is perfect for wedding photos. We visited on July 4th and had the best time and were immediately sold. No other winery on LI comes close. Take my word for it, because I've visited them all.
Location and aesthetics aside, Jennifer was outstanding in every way. We didn't hire a planner or day of coordinator and she filled both roles seamlessly. Over the past six or so months, Jennifer got to know us personally and brought all of my random Pinterest posts to life while sparing me the need to make a ton of minute decisions. From the serpentine table layout, linens, catering choices and coordination of vendors, she was meticulous and it showed. The trust my husband and I have for her was invaluable to us, especially considering our busy lives. Jennifer's vendor recommendations were also spot on. No exaggeration, every vendor who's worked with Meadowlark raved about Jennifer as if they'd known her their whole lives.
The day of was perfect. Nothing was overlooked or felt stressful; we fully trusted Jennifer's coordination and management of everything and she really delivered. While Meadowlark is a stunning property and I'd choose it over and over again if I could, Jennifer is truly what makes it an exceptional wedding venue.

til we found Meadowlark North Fork.
From the very first conversation with Lauren and Jennifer, I knew this was the place. Even before touring the venue, they made us feel completely at ease. They were kind, responsive, supportive, and most importantly genuine. Throughout the entire planning process, they were an incredible blessing to us.
They went above and beyond, helping us with vendor recommendations, reviewing contracts, and always offering honest, thoughtful advice. All while making planning FUN. I truly felt like they had our best interest at heart every step of the way. That kind of support is invaluable during what can be a very stressful time.
Even though our wedding was very small, they treated it with so much care and importance. It never felt like “less than” in their eyes. That meant the world to us.
As for the venue itself, it’s absolutely stunning. The wine bar and The Perch are beautifully designed with a simple yet elegant aesthetic, and the surrounding grounds are serene and timeless. It was everything I dreamed of.
In the end, while the space is breathtaking, it was Jennifer and Lauren who made our decision so easy. They are the reason we chose Meadowlark, and we are forever grateful.
If you're considering this venue, do it. We can’t recommend it enough. Thank you for EVERYTHING Lauren & Jennifer! <3

ard wedding can be intimidating, but these ladies were so knowledgeable about what we needed, had amazing contacts and vendor suggestions, were always quick to respond, but most importantly, were beyond fun to work with. The planning process felt easy and stress-free thanks to their organization, and our wedding day ran flawlessly because of them. We couldn’t recommend Meadowlark—and Jennifer and Lauren—more highly! I would do anything to go back to that beautiful day!

the venue.
I chose to work with their in-house planners, collaborating with Jennifer and Lauren throughout the entire process was seamless. They always took my thoughts into account—whether it was a small detail like which coupe to serve martinis in, or bigger considerations like budget and timeline. Most importantly, they made the process fun. Their vibes were always positive. Planning a wedding can be incredibly stressful, but working with Meadowlark made everything so much easier. They helped me every step of the way. The day of, I was able to truly enjoy, stress-free, knowing I was in the best hands.
Besides the fact that their team is amazing, the grounds are simply stunning. The moment I first visited the venue, I instantly fell in love. It was the first and only place I needed to see before deciding to have our wedding there.
Still in awe of the best day ever at this place! <3

ery, the elegance of modern design, and the whimsical feel of a garden all in one. It’s truly a dream setting.
What made our experience unforgettable, however, were the amazing venue coordinators, Lauren and Jennifer. From the very beginning, they were by our side, helping us plan every single detail of our wedding over the past year. They truly listened to us, what mattered most, what we envisioned, what reflected us as a couple, and then worked with us to bring it all to life.
And when it rained on our big day (yes, it rained on our outdoor wedding), it honestly didn’t make a bit of difference. Lauren and Jennifer had brainstormed a rain plan (months before, just in case) that still allowed us to have our original vision. They handled everything the day of with such grace that our day felt just as magical and perfect as we had ever imagined. The atmosphere was intimate, beautiful, and full of joy, rain and all.
We are so grateful to the Meadowlark team for helping us create a wedding that was not only seamless and beautiful but also deeply personal. If you're looking for a venue that blends natural beauty with expert guidance and heartfelt care, Meadowlark North Fork is everything and more.

e space offers a classy, modern and serene feel. The moment we met Lauren we also knew instantly that we wanted her help with our wedding planning. We cannot rave enough about the amazing on-site event coordinators, Lauren and Jennifer! They always had excellent communication, offered great recommendations, helped resolve any problems, and continually had a positive attitude. These women are truly so dedicated and hardworking, we could not have asked for better!
One of our favorite parts of Meadowlark was the ceremony garden. On the day of our wedding it was raining at the planned ceremony time however, Lauren/Jennifer were very flexible and willing to change plans last minute in order to help us have our dream garden ceremony. They helped to facilitate a reverse cocktail hour so that we may wait for the rain to pass. Amazingly, the rain subsided and some glimmers of sunlight came through just in time for us to have our ceremony in the garden.
My husband and I had the most magical day and it would not have been possible without the amazing team at Meadowlark. We are forever grateful and cannot thank them enough!!! Meadowlark will always hold a very special place in our hearts.

Look no further - Meadowlark is the best wedding venue on the North Fork, hands down. We stumbled into the newly renovated venue last summer (2023) for a wine tasting, and I immedi...
ately fell in love with the aesthetic and vibe of the venue. Everything at the venue is so thoughtfully done, from the landscaping and gardens, to the modern rustic event spaces of the tasting room, perch, and cellar. When I thought of the aesthetic of our wedding, Meadowlark basically had it down. Conveniently, Lauren, the amazing and super cool venue manager, was on site that day and was able to give us a tour on the spot. We immediately connected with her and knew that it was the right venue (and right person) - we pretty much booked it right then and there. Lauren is so organized and has this "no BS" attitude while still bringing a sense of humor, warmth, kindness, and confidence to every situation that makes you feel totally taken care of in her hands. The night before our wedding, our planner ended up getting delayed due to weather, so Lauren took it into her own hands and ran our entire ceremony rehearsal. We had the most beautiful wedding day and couldn't have done it without Lauren and her team. We are endlessly grateful for their support and will be coming back in the years to come to share a glass of wine with people we now think of as friends. Thank you, thank you, thank you a million times over!

My (now) husband and I immediately fell in love with the Meadowlark upon arriving for the first time. I was completely obsessed with how the venue stylistically set itself apart fr...
om all the other venues by its’ design. It is the most classic, modern, and elegant of the options in the area. The grounds are kept immaculately and strike the perfect balance of being neutral and unique. We received endless compliments so save yourself the research and check it out in person!
That said, none of the above would matter without Lauren, the Meadowlark’s Hospitality and Events Director. She immediately put us both at such ease, during EVERY STEP of the planning process. Lauren instantly understood my vision/goals and was seemingly a mind reader. I cannot express how far she went above and beyond to help us make our dream day come true. As stressful as wedding planning can be, my husband and I looked forward to our meetings with Lauren because we always left them feeling more assured and confident. We never really had to explain ourselves, she really just hurled herself into every facial expression I made, even during the big day. I can’t say enough nice things here without starting to sound obsessed, but really, she is the best!!

We had the perfect summer wedding at Meadowlark! We had a small wedding with 60 guest out in the garden space. Cocktail hour was in the tasting room and on the lawn. The reception...
was in the perch room and on the tented deck. It was a perfect combination of indoor and outdoor space. Lauren and her team were wonderful to plan with. They were always available to us, helped coordinate with all the vendors, and ensured that everything went off seamlessly. We could not have asked for a more beautiful venue. The photos with the vineyards and wild grasses are stunning. We had such a great time and can't recommend Meadowlark enough.

Their support and execution were flawless, they helped us whenever we got stuck, they asked us questions we would have forgotten to ask ourselves, and Lauren's depth of experience handling large complex events gave us comfort that she and her team were on top of every detail. They accommodated all of our preferred vendors, and provided recommendations when we needed them. They helped us from beginning to end with grace and good humor. I recommend Meadowlark for any event large or small.

Posting here to express how grateful we are to the Meadowlark team and Lauren Conklin in particular for making our dream wedding come true!
Every detail that I cooked-up came to ...
life and my friends and family were raving about the beautiful space - especially the barrel room afterparty.
Lauren was instrumental to our joy and the ease we felt start to finish. The day truly would not have been a success without her. Through vendor miscommunication, negotiations, load-in details, rain delays, sound outages and more Lauren stayed calm, collected, and per usual as sweet as can be.
I adored Meadowlark and Lauren from our very first visit in the wine bar, and loved it through my first look with my husband, which took place in the very same space.
Thank you to Meadowlark for allowing us to have the rustic, disco, diva, charming, holy cannoli wedding we've always wanted. You'll forever be part of our love story.
And again - Lauren, you're forever part of our crew, and we cannot thank you enough for keeping us sane, keeping our planner sane (who adores you), and keeping everyone else on team Pirolo Wedding together ... every.single.vendor. has spoken so highly of you. You're our MVP. Much love! Sonia & Nick

The Meadowlark team, and John and Nicole in particular, absolutely saved our wedding. Our original venue canceled on us about five weeks before our wedding date (long story, not th...
eir fault!) and we were scrambling to find somewhere to get married. John reached out to our original venue to see if Macari could help, and even though they weren't even planning to open Meadowlark for a few weeks after our date, they offered to rush their timeline so they could host our wedding. They were SO communicative, helpful, and organized (they gave us the most detailed run-of-show template I’ve ever seen), and worked seamlessly with our other vendors. This team did everything they could for us, including inviting us to take our first-look photos at Macari’s flagship location (which we had in no way rented out that day). Every time we met with the Macari team, multiple staff were on hand to make sure they got all the details right. The venue was beautiful, the facilities were gorgeous and sparkling clean, the staff were delightful, and the wine was delicious and reasonably priced (plus, no bottle minimum is a big perk compared to other North Fork vineyards). It was a perfect experience. We cannot recommend Meadowlark enough!!!
