Perona Farms

Perona Farms isn't just a venue; it's an experience, and a huge part of that is their exceptional staff. There's a reason they've been in business for over 100 years! The grounds themselves are gorgeous. We had our ceremony and reception at The Reserve (perfect for our 225 guests), and while the renovations are stunning – and the cocktail hour is legendary (Aperol Spritzes and Old Fashioneds on tap!) – it was the team that truly made our wedding the best day of our lives. I have to specifically call out Desirre (event coordinator), Heather (maitre d'), Cathie (suite attendant), and Ana (day-of coordinator). If you can, REQUEST THEM. These women are absolute rock stars. From the moment we arrived, we were in good hands and definitely treated like the MOST important people. Desirre worked so closely with us and our families to make sure every single detail was perfect. Heather ensured we were never without a drink or a bite to eat, waiting on us hand and foot. Cathie made our mornings stress-free and luxurious, with endless food and perfectly steamed dresses. And Ana -- literally perfect sweet, angel -- she made our vision a reality, making sure the day was exactly as we dreamed. She took the time to truly understand us as a couple. She CRUSHED my tablescapes and all my decor... like unreal she didn't even see the Pinterest boards, just knew the vibes lol. The venue itself is incredible – the outdoor spaces, the fire pits, the reception space, the food (out of this world!) – but the staff elevated it to a whole new level. My husband keeps saying we need to do it again (as guests!). We feel so incredibly fortunate to have celebrated at Perona Farms and are so sad it's over!!!!

We got married at The Refinery on 2/16/25, and we couldn’t have imagined a more perfect experience! From start to finish, the service was absolutely excellent—every single staff member was incredibly attentive, ensuring that no detail was overlooked. What impressed us the most was how the entire team went above and beyond to make sure our guests were comfortable and well taken care of. The professionalism, warmth, and dedication of the staff truly made our wedding day stress-free and unforgettable. We are so happy we chose The Refinery for our special day—10/10 would recommend to any couple looking for the perfect venue! ❤️✨

Perona Farms was everything we could dream of and more. They really know how to take care of you . We didn't have to worry about a thing setting up the venue with decor because they knew exactly what we wanted. We worked with Megan and ailish- they were a pleasure to work with and always super patient with us. Our maitre d that night was Reece who was amazing as well. That entire staff that night was amazing even my vendors said that they were incredible. We booked a stay at the DeBergh house and Wendy was amazing as well. The only thing- literally the only thing out of a billion amazing things- that I wish I could change was the construction going on that made the outside look a little less nice, but it didn't take away the fact that some said it was the greatest wedding they ever went to. Just wish we could have known this prior to booking since we booked before they decided this was going to happen but life happens and it didn't take away from the big day! seriously, thank you Perona for making our day less stressful, and everything we've ever dreamed of.

My wedding day at Perona Farms was the best day of my life! I always wondered what it would be like to be the bride for a change. I've worked at Perona Farms going on 6 years but I didn't want to get married without getting the full experience, so I did my share of searching wedding venues. I can now honestly say with certainty that Perona Farms does it differently. It is such a special experience, I'm tearing up just writing this. When touring other venues I found that Perona provided by far the best package from the service to the food to the all inclusiveness and the personal attention. I did my due diligence, but nothing else compared. When I came for my tour with Kenny and my Mom, Marley toured us around. She was so excited for me, and walking through the door, you are immediately greeted by a family member most of the time and given a drink and a snack. My mom was blown away with the cheese board we were given, and I told her "Mom, that's just how we do it!" I will be honest, I did not feel that warmth anywhere else that I had toured. I had the opportunity of working with Marley during the planning process and you can easily see she has probably planned over 1000 weddings. No question was a stupid question and bride brain is a real thing you guys so thank god I had her to help with all the details! From the moment I stepped on the property, I felt a sense of excitement while feeling calm surprisingly because I knew I was in the best hands. I rented the suites on the property and I was able to enjoy the day with my family and friends. This was probably one of my favorite moments from my wedding day. Cathy was my suite attendant and she made sure I was drinking a mimosa and not stressing about a thing. Cathy has a calming aura about her and my entire bridal party felt that. My coordinators were Ana and Maya. They took care of all the details regarding my decor, first look, ceremony etc. They could not have done a better job in easing my mind that everything was being taken care of. I really was assured they've got it all under control, and they certainly did! Arriving at the venue after pictures and before the ceremony I saw the space decorated with my decor for the first time and I was in awe of how beautiful everything looked even having to retouch my makeup because I cried. The nerves set in right before walking down the aisle and Rob, Perona's marketing manager, calmed me down. I don't know if I would have made it down the aisle without his words of encouragement and the glass of water he gave me since I was moments away from passing out! Brendan was my maitre-d' and he was great! He and his team made sure the evening went smoothly. He made sure the timing was perfect and that Kenny and I were always smiling and having a blast while simultaneously doing a phenomenal job taking care of all my family and friends! This review would not be complete without mentioning THE DELICIOUS FOOD!!! My family had never been to an event at Perona Farms and they were just blown away by the abundance of food at cocktail hour, the lobster tail first course, the fresh scallops and everything else that I have been coming home raving about for years. I could go on and on...Did I mention we are Italian!! I am so happy my family had the opportunity to experience first hand what I get to see everyday. I just wish I could relive this day over and over, it really flies by. I want to thank the entire staff and Family of Perona Farms. It is no wonder you have upheld your reputation for 107 years as a family owned and operated business. They don't let one minor detail fall through the cracks. It is an honor to be a part of the team and family. Being on the other side as an event coordinator has even more of a special meaning to me now!

We had an incredible time at our wedding in The Refinery on 11/17/24. Everything was stunning and seamless, and we really appreciated the attention to detail. We loved all that The Refinery has to offer—the Archive suites, Atrium, cocktail space, stunning backdrops for photos, and industrial chic ballroom—which is why we chose that venue in the first place. But to see it on the day of the wedding was truly magical. Marley was our coordinator up until our wedding day, and she was such a great help. She answered all of our questions and made sure the planning process went smoothly. Day-of, our coordinator, Maya, was just as helpful, keeping everyone on schedule and keeping me (the bride!) calm. Heather, our Maitre D, took over after the ceremony and made us feel so relaxed and special. She kept our drinks coming and even reminded us to eat after we made our rounds with guests. Heather was so caring and on top of making sure the reception ran nicely. Rewinding a bit, one of my favorite moments was when, mid bridal prep, I randomly said to the room that I wasn't really hungry for lunch but could go for some mozzarella and strawberries—and Fern, our suite attendant, proceeded to show up with (you guessed it!) slices of mozzarella and strawberries! It was a small gesture but spoke to how attentive the staff was. (I didn’t even know Fern was listening!) I also want to note how amazing it felt to leave Perona Farms that night knowing all we had to do was show up the next day for our bins of decor. We didn’t have to worry at all about cleanup! This venue is a beautiful and structured—well-oiled-machine type of structured—place to have a wedding…and the food!!! The food was incredible. People are still raving about cocktail hour—and the reception meals were delicious. We truly can’t thank the staff enough, and we’ll remember this day (and venue) forever!

Perfect Wedding at Perona Farms - The Reserve On November 6, 2024, Perona Farms helped make our wedding dreams come true! From the moment we toured the venue, owner Bryant went above and beyond to ensure we understood all the services and amenities. His professionalism and kindness set the tone for an unforgettable experience. The staff—Brie, Kathy, and Brenden—were absolutely amazing. Their attention to detail and impeccable customer service made us feel truly cared for every step of the way. And the food and drinks? Delicious! The seasonal menu was a hit, with every dish perfectly prepared. If you're a bride and groom looking for a magical, stress-free celebration, I highly recommend Perona Farms. It will exceed every expectation! Wishing all couples a blissful wedding day, The Washington's

We were truly amazed by the beautiful venue and incredible team at Perona Farms. When I arrived for our venue tour and was welcomed with specially made snacks, I knew we had found something special. From every phone call and email to our in-person interactions, we always felt positively supported. Although I initially regretted not choosing venues closer to NYC, all those worries vanished once we experienced the hospitality at Perona Farms. On our wedding day, we were pleasantly surprised when the owner, Bryant Avondoglio, personally came up to congratulate us! This venue was absolutely perfect for us. After both of us swore off ever hosting a party again, my husband suggested hosting a baby shower or birthday party at Perona Farms!

Perona Farms will give you the wedding of your dreams, and more. The team worked tirelessly to ensure that our wedding was better than we could have ever imagined. Megan was our designated Perona Farms coordinator. She was extremely responsive, and so incredibly personable as she walked us through the venue-specific planning. The grounds are stunning, and even though we had a rainy day, our small guest count allowed our Barn ceremony to take place on the back covered porch – this was a gamechanger, and we are so grateful to have been provided this option. Our day-of coordinators and suite attendant were spectacular – there was no reason to think of anything on the wedding day, and their #1 priority was to keep the day running smoothly while you and your spouse have the most amazing day. The food is delicious, and there is no shortage of included food options. The drinks were delicious (and I highly recommend their mocktails!). I wish I could continue to relive this day, and thank Perona for making this the best day ever.

We got married in Reserve at Perona Farms last month. The staffs are very accommodating and the venue is stunning!! The cocktail hour was amazing and food was delicious, all our guests love it! Tammi is awesome!! She is very attentive and made our day so memorable. Desirre and Heather helped us tremendously. They made our dream come true. We just want to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We highly recommend Perona Farms!

We had our wedding at the Barn at Perona Farms. All I can say is wow. From the amazing staff to the venue to the food, Perona is the best place to have your wedding. All though it was a cloudy rainy day, Perona just knew what to do. They made my wedding day amazing. We had Auggie as our event coordinator and from start to finish he was amazing. He even checked in on us on our wedding day. We had Brie and Brenden helping us out all day long and they were absolutely amazing and so helpful. Brie killed it by setting up our decor and making our dream wedding come true. Brie also kept me calm and even gave me her jacket in between pictures outside. Brenden always made sure we were doing well and got us anything we needed. We also had Tammy checking in on us from the start of the day in our suites. Tammy also kept me calm getting me anything I needed and bringing the energy. Let me just talk about the food. The best food hands down. Everyone was raving over it and that sushi tower was amazing. The amount of food you get is incredible and it’s even more delicious. I am truly happy with this venue and all I can say is I was able to have such an amazing time and I can truly say I had my dream wedding thanks to Perona Farms. Please check this venue out. You will not be disappointed.

We got married in Aug 2023 in the Barn and could not have asked for a more incredible experience. From the first tour to our wedding day, the Perona Farms staff went above and beyond for us. Our event manager was so attentive and responsive during the planning process and our day of staff blew us away. Jenny made sure we had everything we needed while we got ready and Brendan took care of us during entire cocktail hour and reception. Overall the venues are beautiful, the staff is so accommodating and professional, and the food is fantastic. Would recommend Perona Farms to anyone looking for a venue - they won’t let you down!

I got married at Perona Farms on 9/2/23 at the Reserve. From beginning to end, our experience with Perona Farms was exceptional. Upon our first tour, we fell in love with the space. - Starting with the ceremony space, we cannot tell you how much stress and anxiety it saved us to not have to worry about the weather because of the retractable roof. -The room has enough character to work without many florals or you can go all out and make it your own. -The grounds in general were gorgeous, there were so many amazing spots to take pictures without having to go far. They also shuttle you around the day of your wedding so you really are not doing a ton of walking (which is a super nice detail) -The outdoor cocktail hour space was incredible, it felt like we were in another country and our guests loved the ability to go in and out all night. -The actual reserve is beautiful. It isn’t your typical ballroom, which is exactly what we were going for. Again, the room on its own is stunning. Ok, now onto service: -We worked with Marley from beginning to end, who was just so accommodating and helpful. My family had A LOT of requests and Marley made sure they were met, and we were happy. She was a big part of why we were so happy with our experience. -In general, the service was impeccable. We and our families were taken care of from the moment we stepped into the venue to the second we left. We couldn’t have asked for anything more and it was better than I could have imagined. - We chose to get ready at the carriage house and it was a huge part of why our day was so magical and stress free. Every little detail was taken care of from an amazing breakfast and lunch, to having steamers and supplies readily available for us, and an easy space for our hair and makeup people to work in. Everyone loved it and having that part of the day be sooooooo stress free made everything that much better. - Our ceremony coordinators were Kim and Tammy and I don’t even have the words to describe how kind and thoughtful they were and how special they made our day. I cried when I said goodbye to Kim because of how amazing she was and made us feel. - Our maitre d was Brendan and took care of us, from beginning to end. We opted to have a private cocktail hour (which was the best decision). He gave us the space and privacy to enjoy it but made sure we had everything we needed, he continued to do so the whole night and there was never a time we needed anything. THE FOOD. HOLY SHIT. I will start by saying this, I come from an Italian family with very high standards and they were all RAVING about the food. -Our food at the suites was fantastic and again, Marley and crew were beyond accommodating to our preferences. - People are still talking about our cocktail hour. We added on a few stations and made a few substitutions, but again, Marley made this easy and made sure we had exactly what we wanted. - The dinner portion was incredible and they made sure we loved every single option we ordered our guests. -My husband and I are both vegetarians and they truly catered to us and gave us everything we could ever want. This was hands down the best day of our lives and that is because of the impeccable professionalism and service that Perona offers. Our day was better than me or my husband could have ever imagined and it is all thanks to Marley, Kim, Tammy, Brendan and the incredibly talented and thoughtful team they have on their hands!
