Stokesay Castle

he day and was perfect as well. All the food was amazing, people are still talking about how delicious the risotto bar was and the sea bass, and it now Wednesday!! Decor was great and my vision just came to life. if there were any issues, i didn't even know. My husband and I were fed and given drinks and everything was taken care of for us, there was no hassle. I was so happy with using Stokesay's Castle, we will definitely, be back for dinner soon, and will plan another event again! Everything was PERFECT!!!!

the staff was wonderful. We absolutely love Alexis. She was amazing. We would definitely recommend this venue to anyone looking for a lovely place to get married. They are reasonably priced too!

e amazing. She made sure that everything was perfect and it was. My family was able to have the time of their lives because everything was taken care of!! Thank you all so much !!!

ave us many good ideas & suggestions, but didn't push her opinions. It was definitely all about the bride & groom!! All e-mails & phone calls were returned and handled promptly pre wedding. On the wedding day, everything from the time we arrived at the castle to have the girls hair done, to having to switch from outside ceremony to inside because of snow, to the entire reception, it was the day my daughter dreamed of. She was a princess in her castle. Becky, our server while in the brides rooms was so sweet and made sure we had everything we needed. The bartenders were friendly and on the ball as were all of the servers for the evening. The food was delicious and we had so many compliments. The bartender said to me near the end of the evening, " You look like you are having a great time." I said I am, because I don't have to worry about a thing!!! If you want an elegant, fun place to have a reception, this is the place!!! Thank you again to all of you!!!

terpieces I made she had them set up perfectly day of! She was so wonderful and made the process so much easier! She joined after we had already started our planning process with Stokesay and she jumped in and made the transition seamless! Besides how awesome she is, the venue itself is stunning! We had so many different places to take photos, there were adorable rooms for me and the bridesmaids to get ready in as well as a place for the men to get ready. The food was AMAZING! We had a buffet and I could see people going back for thirds! The venue was very flexible and was so easy to work with, I highly recommend!

ur rehearsal dinner there and the buffet was to die for!! If I could do it all over again, I would!!

verything and my wife and I didn't have to lift a finger. I can't tell you how many of our guests came up to us to compliment how everything went. It truly was a magical day in a castle.

ly how we wanted it. I had no stress at all going into the day because I knew that Stokesay would follow through on everything we had planned, which they did. The food was also incredible- we had over 200 people and the food came out on time and tasted just like it did when we had our tasting- I got more compliments than I could count on how great the food was!

trusted my judgement and after looking at a few venues, Stokesay castle was the wedding venue we chose. We could not be happier. Our team of Emily and Alissa, who coordinate weddings, did an amazing job along with Jordan our banquet captain. Everyone was friendly and fun throughout the planning process and listened to some our unique yet workable ideas such as a late night boneless buffalo wing bar which I personally wanted yet never experienced at a wedding. Another point worth mentioning is that small details are not overlooked at this venue. My one concern was that my pasta bar may take extra time and drag dinner out and that I may be waiting in line a long time for food. As soon as the toasts and blessing were finished, my wife and I were immediately asked what we wanted on our pasta and the order was put in for us so we could enjoy time together without standing in line. I thought this was a great touch that I didn't even think of. I also enjoyed the flexibility as our DJs had the party rocking and we needed more time. The staff gave me plenty of options for the bar to go overtime and ways to fit my budget. This allowed us to enjoy the party for another hour. Post wedding, our guests would not stop complimenting the dinner service; especially the pasta station and wing bar. While I did not have my ceremony here, there is a beautiful area for that too. In closing, I would not have changed a thing and even requested the names of the entire staff who worked my wedding to thank them. Big shout out to Terri, Kurt, Amy, Joy, Jay, Jillian and Ian. Thanks for making our day a day we will always remember!

r. She's quick to respond and had an answer for every concern. The entire day ran smoothly, and she was there every step of the way from our booking of the venue to the ceremony. I can not praise her enough. All of the staff was friendly and helpful. It was a stress free day and the most amazing day of my life. I would highly recommend this Venue to anyone. I seriously can not say enough about how happy we were! :)

ny! Our day couldn't have gone any better, it was truly perfect in every way. Stokesay was extremely accommodating and the food was top notch! Our guests were wowed by the beauty of the castle and the delicious food. We highly recommend Stokesay Castle for your perfect fairly tale wedding! Thanks again Emily and Alyssa! Couldn't have done without either of you!

azing job with our decorations. Not to mention that she is so friendly and basically one of the nicest people you could meet. All of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue was. Many of them said it was the best wedding they had ever been to. It was the perfect combination of time spent outdoors and indoors. My bridal party and I got ready (hair, makeup, and dress) in the bridal suite and it was perfect. There was a very friendly server bringing us mimosas and snacks all morning as we prepped. My husband and his groomsmen rented the Board room, and he said it was equally awesome. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone.

nt out & purchased us the rest of our favors & made them look just as beautiful as our original favors. Everything I dreamt of for my reception was met & so much more. The staff made sure we ate the food & cake we picked out, as well as drinks. They were always making sure we were enjoying ourselves. My new husband & I both said that we would do the whole day all over again & not change a single thing. We LOVED everything about our reception at Stokesay Castle.

on when we were there. When we got engaged, Stokesay was one of the top venues on our lists because we both thought it was perfect. When we toured the venue with Lauren, she was thorough, detailed, and really helped us create a visual in our minds of the perfect wedding. The date we wanted was available and we were pretty much sold at that point. Throughout the entire planning process, which was just under six months, Lauren and Stephanie were extremely helpful, thorough, accommodating, and responsive. It is apparent that they are experts at what they do: they shared wonderful ideas & suggestions and were very receptive to whatever thoughts we had throughout the process...and on top of that, they couldn't have been nicer. We were thrilled with using the venue for our rehearsal dinner, as well. It really set the tone for those people closest to us, and helped build the excitement even before the wedding day. Our wedding day was nothing short of perfect. As "cutesy" as that may sound, that is the only word that fits. The staff was so helpful and checked on us consistently to make sure everyone was doing okay and to see if we needed anything. They worked so well with all of the vendors, all of whom also had great things to say about Stokesay, too. We are really incredibly lucky that this beautiful venue was available for us on the day we had chosen. We wound up leaving some things at Stokesay accidentally and they followed up with us continuously to make sure that we were available to pick everything up - and when we got there, they took time to talk to us, connect with us, and hear our thoughts about our special day. We will absolutely go back to Stokesay for future celebrations and dinners and it will always hold a special place in my heart.

everything went off without a hitch. We got our hair and makeup done in the bridal suite upstairs and were immediately taken care of with champagne, coffee, fruit and cheese all morning. The boys were across the venue in the grooms suite enjoying some beer, scotch and snacks. We had an indoor ceremony that went perfectly, and was well coordinated by the staff. Afterwards we enjoyed our cocktail hour and dinner, and everything was delicious. Our cupcakes were incredible. We gave the pastry chef the loose instructions of "cherry blossoms" and he ran with it. Our cupcakes each featured branches and hand-painted cherry blossoms. They were so beautiful. We were so well taken care of and everything was perfect. I can't recommend this venue enough!

I had total confidence that everything was being done exactly how we wanted it.

had our own personal server while doing photos bringing us hors'deavers and drinks. On top of everything the food was absolutely to die for. our Rennaisance themed wedding went off without a hitch.

the giant carved knight, everything gives off a particular medieval, classy vibe that you can't help but enjoy. I'll get right down to the important part - the food. Stokesay has some of the best food you'll ever eat in a restaurant. During our planning phase we had the opportunity to try the majority of their menu items..literally every one of them was good. You can't go wrong - but the steaks were my choice, either the filet mignon or the shoulder filet. Both were excellent, as were all the sides that went with them. I can't possibly give more praise to the chefs. As far as the wedding goes - most everything went smoothly. Our wedding was the weekend after Hurricane Sandy - luckily, Stokesay had no issues and we were fully up and running. The event director, Stephanie Tusky, is a joy to work with. Very friendly and helpful, which is great during a time as stressful as wedding planning (with the added bonus of a hurricane tossed in). Our wedding coordinator changed in the midst of our planning process; this was not ideal. However, through coordination with Larissa and Stephanie, ultimately we were able to get all of the kinks worked out, and they were willing to be more flexible than normal thanks to the circumstances, which we certainly appreciated. All in all, Stokesay is a great place, whether you're looking for a fancy dinner, drinks at the Knights Pub, or a wedding venue. An easy five stars.

g of our meals and signature drinks. We also were in frequent contact with the wedding coordinator, Larissa, who was extremely responsive and accomodating. The day ran very smoothly and everything was just as we expected. The guests had a wonderful time and we received so many compliments on the staff and setting of the reception. The castle itself is beautiful, with great locations for pictures. The reception ballroom was decorated just how we wanted and the staff was wonderful setting it all up. It was a super experience from start to finish. We felt so happy and at ease through the whole process. We are grateful to Stokesay for all they did for us!

ng that would look great in photos. Stokesay exceeded our expectations on all three counts. Larissa and Stephanie were extremely helpful and responsive throughout the planning process. They even went above and beyond, to help advocate for me when I was having trouble with a hotel in town where we had a block of rooms reserved. On the day of the wedding, I arrived with my bridal party at 11am and had a wonderful, care-free time until the reception ended at 10pm. They took care of all the set-up details, ensured that the day went according to schedule (coordinating with other vendors), and made sure there was always someone checking in with us and catering to our every need.Overall it was a fantastic experience and we would highly recommend Stokesay Castle to other couples!
