Beautiful building, but unfortunately the management has some very shady and unethical business practices. They took a $1000 deposit from us, and although are contractually obligat...
ed to fulfill an event for over 150 people and cannot under the current NYS Covid regulations, are refusing to give the deposit back. They are saying we missed a payment while NYS was on shut down even though they told us at that point all events were “on hold”. I would highly recommend looking elsewhere for any events and whatever you do, don’t trust the owner or management team.
Kelly and the admin side of Tonawanda Castle were great! They also did a wonderful job setting up the tables, chairs, and linens on the day of the wedding, and were flexible with t...
he wedding timeline. However, the food itself was not very tasty overall. The appetizers and default spread that they did were yummy at the start of the evening, but the actual entrees were a bit bland and none of our guests were raving about the entrees during or after the wedding. If we could do it all over again, we would go with another caterer for that reason. We initially picked this caterer because we had a limited list of caterers to choose from for our reception venue.
An incredibly beautiful venue with tons of character! All of our guests loved the size and great backgrounds for photos. The dance floor is large and there is so much space for a l...
arge party. Our wedding was in March and there was a snow storm that night so having the large venue was important!
The staff were all amazing and made sure that our special day went off without a hitch! If we had to do our wedding over again, we would choose this venue in a heart beat!
The Tonawanda Castle couldn't have been a better fit for us. From the day we toured the venue to day we picked up all of our items after the wedding, the staff could not have been...
any more helpful or supportive, The staff was incredible! Any question, no matter how many I had, was answered in a immediate fashion. Lindsay, Teena, Kelli and Rich make an amazing team as well as the entire staff. We had numerous guest reach out to us after our wedding to compliment us on the venue with the most wonderful comments about the staff. Our guests were impressed with the attentiveness of the wait staff and the quality of the entire meal and drinks. From the time our guests walked in the front door for our ceremony, they were welcomed with a drink, then enjoyed an amazing cocktail hour with great appetizers then were welcomed into the ballroom. The staff was so accommodating to our guests. Food was out of this world and the attention to detail the staff provided was outstanding. Our guests also complimented how "neat" it was to be able to explore all the rooms of The Castle, Not only did our guest have a fantastic dining experience (we received compliments such as "better meal they have ever had at a wedding") but a reception venue full of history. The Tonawanda Castle far exceeded our expectations (We have very high expectations by the way!)
The Tonawanda Castle provided us the best back drop for all our wedding photographs and video as well. The building is so rich in history, architecture and has so many little details that really made all of our memories in pictures and video make you just say WOW! The Tonawanda Castle literally made our Fairytale come true! Thank you Lindsay, Teena, Rich, Kelli and the entire staff for the best day of our lives!
The Tonawanda Castle was the best decision I could've made for my wedding. The entire staff worked alongside of me and my family despite living nearly 3000 miles away! Lindsay, Tee...
na, and Chef Rich are extremely dedicated to each client, going above and beyond the call of duty to make each client's vision come true. While my wedding was back home in Buffalo, NY as I worked in San Jose, CA, each member of the team kept me up to date on all things wedding related and were able to make my husband and my dream wedding become a reality.
Additionally, Chef Rich and his catering team at the Castle catered my bridal shower (which was off site at a winery). Their timeliness and professionalism won over the hearts of my family and myself and their food DEFINITELY won over my bridal shower guests!
If you are looking for a wedding venue, I highly recommend taking a look at this lovely historical venue. With access to all of the gorgeous rooms within the Castle's walls (3 Floors of rooms for you, your wedding party, and guests!), this venue will make an event you will never forget.
Lindsay and Teena were absolutely amazing to work with! They kept us in the loop and took care of every little thing on the day of. I never could have pictured the venue looking so...
wonderful or things running so smoothly! Plus, the food was simply out of this world!!!
Teena was great. The food was absolutely outstanding by Rich. Everything was outstanding by the Castle. The timing that we had planned out for the night was executed 100%. I litera...
lly have not one complaint or something I would’ve wanted done differently.
I cannot say enough about this place! The Tonawanda Castle was the greatest decision I made in my wedding planning aside from marrying my husband of course! The team is PHENOMENAL!...
I worked with both Jamie & Lindsay & both women were AMAZING! The castle was incredibly accommodating, they have AMAZING food!! They made you feel like you are apart of their family, we met the owner of the castle which was great! I loved that they do one wedding each day, they have ample parking, awesome food, a wonderful staff, incredible flexibility & they are all incredibly understanding! If you're looking for a venue that will deliver this is the place! I am so happy i chose this place ! They worked with me when family issues arose that effected my payment making etc I just loved the castle so much! We got to bring our own vendors, a caricature artist, do a s'mores bar, have a fog machine etc. they are just amazing <3
I cannot be happier with how my wedding turned out! The entire staff made sure my day was perfect! The food was extraordinary and completely custom to what we wanted. The venue is ...
absolutely beautiful and made for a great atmosphere.
We had our wedding reception here on 7/11/15 and we are so glad we went with this venue. Jamie made things very easy and made us feel like she was our personal wedding planner. Ric...
h's food is to die for. He met with us several times to make a custom menu to our tastes. When you meet with him he will make you feel like family. We trusted in the staff to make our day special and they came through big time. My wife and I couldn't be happier. We highly recommend the Tonawanda Castle to anyone.
The manager was very rude. When a guest at our table left in the middle of dinner to help another guest having an allergic reaction, his food got cold. We asked our server if we co...
uld have a cover for his food to maintain the little bit of warmth his food had left, and she said they were in the kitchen, gave us attitude, then walked away. We asked another server if we could get his food warmed up, and she went and got the manager, who said we were rude and attacked her staff. Then instead of getting his dinner warmed up and some new silverware, because the previous server had taken it, she argued with us about attacking her. I told her to just get his meal warmed up and some fresh silverware and we'll be good, but she insisted on standing there, telling us about the great reviews they get about their customer service and that she doesn't like being attacked. We asked her again to just warm up his meal and get him silverware and she continued to argue with us.
The Tonawanda Castle is a beautiful place to have any event. They helped to make my wedding a wonderful and beautiful experience. The staff is awesome! Super nice and super helpful...
with everything!! Great place for a wedding!! Great place for anything!! Food is excellent! Service is excellent!
We just had our 90-guest wedding at the Tonawanda Castle and they were fantastic to work with. I loved how their event planner, Jamie, worked with us throughout the entire event. S...
he helped keep things organized and well run. She was always available to answer questions by phone or email, and she met with us after-hours a few times, too. I loved the "one-stop shopping" - we had our ceremony on the 2nd floor in their beautiful chapel space, and our reception in the huge (and I mean HUGE!) banquet hall. They provided their own catering, too. Thanks to Chef Mike, the food was awesome and memorable. Even though we went with a buffet, the food was totally unique and customized to our tastes and likes. Chef Mike really put together a creative feast that seemed more elegant than a typical buffet - no grey meat in random sauces here! All of our guests enjoyed the beautiful historic setting and architecture, and some folks even told us that it was the best wedding they'd ever been to. Thanks in large part to the great team at the Castle!!
We were very pleased with the Castle. Venue is beautiful and spacious. The staff is very helpful and accommodating. Lindsay and Rich were great to work with. Food was awesome. I hi...
ghly recommend the Tonawanda Castle!
I recently had my wedding reception at the castle and they have exceeded my expectations for the wedding of my dreams. The staff was amazing- Jamie was my coordinator and was ther...
e helping me through the planning process from start to finish. The chef Rich was amazing- we got to create our own menu. We choose roasted sirloin and chicken stuffed with risotto with red peppers and asparagus and Gorgonzola mac n cheese. And the venue itself is spectacular. It is a historically breath taking place- if you are looking for something different, this is it! I would recommend this place to anyone I know.
The Tonawanda Castle is the perfect setting for a wedding. From the beautiful decor to the friendly, professional manner of Jamie and her staff, this is an excellent and unique ch...
oice. We were made to feel as if we were KIng and Queen. Chef Rich helped us personalize our menu. We got to pick every ingredient for our meal whereas most place make you pick from a predetermined menu. We had the most positive comments from our guests on the delicious food!
My wedding at Tonawanda Castle was everything I dreamed of and more. Jamie was so helpful, met with us multiple times to make sure everything was the way we wanted it, and personal...
