Our wedding was on march 17,2023! Where do I even begin!!!
The Pines Manor staff were exceptional from Day 1. Ana and Jennifer worked with me and the family in every way, shape and form! The wedding was a fairytale wedding and that isn’t easy...
with 750 guests. However, Ana and team made the importable Possible!
thank you so much for everything!
I’m going to be very honest, I didn’t want to have my wedding here only because everyone in my family does and I wanted something different but everything felt right once we met with and spoke to Camille. I felt like she genuinely cared about u...
s and did everything with our best interest mind. Everything I asked for, Camille and Mika did for me. Jhonny, Uzma, and Hadeer were awesome and a huge help on the day of. The staff definitely cares about their clients and really wants them to be happy. There were many hardships for me during my engagement period but the love and support I got from Camille was overwhelming. I can’t complain about a single thing and i’m so unbelievably appreciative of everyone there.
Postpartum Support International hosted a 3 day perinatal mental health training at The Pines Manor. Everyone we worked with did an excellent job accomodating our needs--food, audio, changing the room design all three days and providing a resp...
ite/lactaction room that had a small refrigerator for anyone needing that. Vicki, our banquet manager and Hadeer, Tommy and the banquet staff were wonderful and went out of the way to give us even better service than what I'd say we paid for. The food was fresh and good quality, bathrooms always kept clean (and we had a lot of women using them)! Price was the range we needed and I'd say we certainly got our monies worth! I highly recommend Pines Manor. It would make a great wedding venue.
Any questions?

I highly recommend you consider Pines Manor for your event, our event coordinator Ana Peralta & Maitre D Nick Fareri are truly the best in the business.
We would like to thank you again for all your help from the day we inquired about booking our wedding, and all throughout, till the end of our celebration. What a wonderful experience.. We couldn’t have asked for a better day, or a better venue...

Pines Manor was the first venue we viewed – After meeting with Camille, our Catering Manager, we left with such excitement knowing that it was the venue that we wanted to get married at. She was wonderful to work with; caring attentive, and nothing was ever too much to ask for, and questions were always answered super fast. She was there for us every step of the way, along with her event specialist, Samantha who covered all the details (hope I didn’t drive you too crazy 😊.
Pines Manor really did exceed our expectations of how the venue looked on the day, and how the day came together. Your entire staff went above and beyond to make sure that my husband & I and our guests had a top notch experience. Nick, our Maître D, did an exceptional job making sure everything was flawless - We got so many compliments on the food during the cocktail hour and reception (and let's not forget the desserts and cake!) - everything was just delicious. Kudos to your Chef!
Thank you, again, to you and your team for the most perfect day. You made the vision of our dream wedding come to life. We will definitely recommend the Pines Manor to family and friends -for all their events- for years to come!
Ana!!!!

d can honestly say they are family to us from how we are treated in there, both the staff and managers were detailed and made it look effortless in making the dream wedding for my cousin and his wife.
Thanks for the lasting memories and can’t wait for our future weddings there
My event was phenomenal, from the beautiful setup, to the great service and food.
They certainly made of my Daughter’s Sweet 16 the talk of the town. We keep getting compliments from every guest that attended our event.

I had my daughters Sweet Sixteenth at the Pines Manor recently and I have to say that I’m very pleased with the service we received. My wife handled all the particulars from booking to the logistics of the event and my first view was the night ...
of the celebration. Everything was as my wife had described and told me to expect. The staff was very professional, attentive and helpful. The room was adequately lit and all the services were on time and well coordinated. I would highly recommend without hesitation this venue for events and social gatherings.
Thank you for making my daughters special day unforgettable. Hope to see you soon!
My family and I attended a 15th birthday there this weekend. I must say if you are looking for mediocre food and horrible service this is the place for you! And you get a horrible unsympathetic manager to go too!
First, coffee was served at 11...
:15pm onlybyo be told the event was over! The dessert table wasn’t even opened for the guests because their staff and manager did not know how to time management! It is not our responsibility to manage time! They should’ve served coffee at 10 and opened the dessert table if they wanted the guests out by 11!
Next, when we asked the manager for 30 min just to do the candle ceremony and for dessert, he went on to be rude and disrespectful! He said he has a business to run and has no empathy for anyone! Mind you, this little girl lost her dad less than a year ago and her dads dying wish was for this event to happen. The manager knew the family’s situation and proceeded to tell us to “get the hell out”!!
Horrible! Just horrible! I humane! Sub-standard food and less than sub stands star manager! Think before booking this joint!!

Dear Anabela,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are very sorry we did not meet your expectations and for any inconvenience you had during your event with us. However, it’s important to know the full story of why there was a...
n issue with timing. The host signed the contract with us to start at 7pm and end at 11pm. The doors were ready to open by 6:45pm. We were then notified by a guest that the invitations the host sent out said the party will start at 8pm and end at 12. The host approached us and requested that we keep the event going for another hour if possible, at no charge. We made it clear that we can stay open until 12am, but there will be an overtime charge to cover the labor and expenses. Although we had a scheduled timeline the client had agreed on, the night of the event the host kept pushing it back and delaying our service. She had asked us to hold off on coffee until cake was cut, we decided at 10:00 to move forward and serve coffee and open the chocolate fountain even though the cake and candle lighting was being delayed.
We did everything we could to stay on time and prepare food for an additional 30 guests that showed up. After reviewing the contract and our video cameras it was clear that the first round of coffee was served at 10:08pm. We kept the party going until 11:20pm without additional charges being incurred by the host, but we had to make a tough decision and end the event if overtime was not going to be paid. If we had known 24 hours prior to the event that the invitation sent out by the host was not the same as the contract they signed, we would have adjusted the staff and the cooking time and open the doors at 8pm. To have the food ready by 7pm and then delay it, does not do justice for anyone. We spoke with the family on Monday, apologized and resolved many of the last-minute challenges. As the Director of Operation for the past 15 years, I take guests’ experience very seriously. I would like to assure you that my team and I continually strive to exceed our guests’ expectations. The more information we have the better we can accommodate the last-minute changes. I do hope you give us another chance as I know we can exceed your expectations next time. Thank you again for your valuable feedback and we hope to welcome you back. If you have any additional questions, I can always be reached by email at joe@pinesmanor.com.
Sincerely,
Joe Amore
