Once was fantastic. They took care of all the details and set everything up perfectly as I had pictured it. Yvonne was the sweetest to work with and was so patient to help make my vision come to life. The day was perfect and the night even better. Great food for cocktail hour and venue is modern and amazing deck space overlooking the lake. Couldn’t have asked for a better location or people to work with to make it the most magical day! Thank you!

We had our wedding reception at Once and cannot speak more highly of the team there! The owner was always quick to answer our countless questions via email or a phone call. We live 6 hours away from the venue, so this was invaluable to us. The bar service Once provided was fantastic, and our specialty cocktail was a hit! We really lucked out with the weather, so the tent overlooking the lake was the most beautiful setting for the night. They also made all vendor communication seamless, and allowed all of our key vendors to come see the space, answer questions about power, noise ordinances, etc. Overall, I think the value Once provides is extremely hard to find in the Finger Lake region. The team there is top notch, and we are so happy we went with Once to host our reception.

We hosted a rehearsal dinner and welcome drinks for our son and daughter-in-law at ONCE Finger Lakes. The evening was perfect! The venue and views were beautiful, the staff did a fantastic job, and everyone enjoyed the food and the experience of tasting several fine wines from the Finger Lakes region. Many thanks to Antonio, Yvonne and their team for helping us plan our special event. They went above and beyond to create the personalized experience we were looking for. Everyone raved about the food prepared by Chef Samantha. We highly recommend ONCE Finger Lakes for your special event!

Antonio and his staff at ONCE Finger Lakes were simply outstanding. The tented area was perfect for our event. We had a beautiful view of Seneca Lake, were sheltered from the sun, and enjoyed a nice summer breeze. The service he and Yvonne provided was exceptional. His attention to detail prior to and day of the event made the event so much better. Literally all of my guests commented how nice it was. Thank you Antonio!
