ng, treat you and all your guests so well. From the moment we looked at Villa Barone Hilltop Manor, Nick made us feel like family. He guided us through all of our planning from choosing a delious & outstanding menu to showing us the gorgeous outside ceremony space. Rob the maitred', as well as the rest of the staff went above and beyond. When we couldnt have our ceremory outside, due to the weather, they transtormed a space inside in the matter of ahalf an hour to accommodate 140 people comfortably and was just as beautiful. Nobody left without being amazed. This was the first venue we looked at when we started planning and just fell in love and knew this was the place we wanted to have our wedding.

staff was impeccable—professional, attentive, and genuinely caring throughout the entire planning process. Nick and Vinny make you feel like family. They were always so happy to talk and meet with us and are professionals in the wedding world. Melissa and Michael were there for our every need that night, we’re so grateful. They made us feel like we were their top priority every step of the way. The decorations were beyond our expectations. Every detail was stunning and thoughtfully planned, and it truly made our wedding day feel magical. The food… wow! Our guests are still raving about it. The dishes were not only delicious but also beautifully presented. The chef and catering team really made sure everything was flawless. If you’re looking for a wedding venue that truly cares and delivers excellence in every aspect, Villa Barone is the place to go. We will be forever grateful for their dedication and commitment to making our day so special! It’s one we’ll never forget.

staff went above and beyond to accommodate all our needs, ensuring that every detail was attended to with care and precision. Brianna, my bridal attendant was amazing. She stayed with me throughout the night and helped me with whatever I needed. Rob, our maitre d, was extremely attentive and ensured our night was absolutely perfect. One of the highlights of our experience was the incredible food provided by the venue. The menu was not only delicious but also beautifully presented, adding an extra touch of elegance to our special day. In addition, the venue's picturesque setting provided a stunning backdrop for our ceremony and photos, creating lasting memories that we will cherish forever. Our wedding will be one for the books!

ng with us. They answered all of our questions patiently and truly work with you. They are a well oiled machine and are the best in the business. They make your day flawless and they do everything to help you and to make sure your day is extra special. There are not enough things I can say about Villla Barone, other than they go above and beyond. No venue is like them. Our guests were raving about our wedding, most said it was the best wedding they ever been to- the quality of the staff was outstanding, the food was delicious, and the entire place was pristine! 1000% recommend Villa Barone Hilltop Manor.

, the overall service, the main event in the ballroom and everything in between. Everything was perfect and you made us feel so comfortable on our wedding day! Everyone is still raving how amazing it was and how delicious the food was! A special thank you to all three of you (and Rob) who went above and beyond to make us truly feel like family and we cannot thank you enough. We are so happy to have celebrated our special day with you! 😁

want to especially thank the staff: Melissa for the organization aspects before the day of the event; Jackie & Mike for their patience and professionality during the event.

e met with Nicky to tour the venue he was able to help us envision our wedding at the Villa Barone and every aspect of the day that we wants. Being from out of town we were definitely worried about any little details that could slip away from us with being so far away. We even considered getting a wedding planner but ultimately did not and I am so happy we did not spend money on a planner! Nicky and his team were always available to answer all of our questions leading up to the wedding. They were always quick to respond and provided us with tons of vendor recommendations. On the day of the wedding the staff was beyond amazing. There was never a moment of doubt from any of the staff and you could tell this wasn’t their first time doing this. Our guests were also amazed with the flow of the event and seamless transition to each part of our wedding. Every time we returned to our seats we had another drink waiting for us. It was like the staff could read our mind and we never had to ask for anything. All of our guests were blown away from the amount and quality of food. We had so many guests rave about the waiters walking around after the entrees were served with the entrees for the guests to have seconds or try another entree (this also sold my husband on the Villa Barone during our tour). The wedding cake was not only beautiful but so also delicious!! We decided on vanilla cake with chocolate mousse and Oreos - it was such a fun combination! We also had our after party at the Villa Barone and it was so fun! The room was beautifully decorated and our guests loved the option to dance or hang out by the bar and chat. The DJ created such a great vibe for our late night party and played such fun music. The buffet (boneless wings, sliders, fries) all tasted so good! Our guests could not stop eating (even though they were so full). Overall I cannot recommend the Villa Barone enough as a wedding venue! The staff made us feel so special on our wedding day and their attention to detail was beyond what we could have imagined. The amount of compliments we received from our guests was overwhelming and showed that not only did we believe our wedding day was amazing but our guests also felt all the amazing aspects of our day. It was truly the most amazing day and we are so thankful to the Villa Barone and their incredible staff!! If you are considering having your wedding here - DO IT!! You will not regret it and will so happy with your decision!!!

ge and BEAUTIFUL. I was pretty much sold when I saw the Tivoli room, but once Nicky showed us the outdoor ceremony space on the stairs with the fountain in the background, it literally took my breath away. The venue is impeccably maintained and constantly being updated, nothing in the place looks stale. It’s a family business and you can tell they all take pride in it. They even purchased a lakefront property down the street so that their clients have a beautiful backdrop for photos. They walk you through the whole planning process, providing us with DJ’s, photographers & florists that they frequently work with so narrowing that down was a breeze. Vinny was always quick to answer my menial questions any time of day and that put my mind at ease. Vinny kept me sane. After our ceremony they moved us away from the crowd so we could take a break and eat in peace before cocktail hour. Their food is beyond amazing. By the time we got to the reception we were actually full. They have their own pastry chefs and dessert was to die for. You MUST do the Viennese hour. The maître d’ Robert and bridal attendant Sophia were by our sides all night for anything we needed. We didn’t need to do any thinking throughout the night because they were there ushering us through. Robert directed us around like he was marshalling a plane, literally guiding our every step for the ceremony, reception entrance and Viennese entrance. Honestly, you don’t need to worry about anything with VBHM, there is no other place like it. My husband and I had no idea what we were doing, but they turned our dream into our day.

band and I walked through the doors we fell in love with the venue. Vinny and Nicky treated us like family from start to finish, always there making sure everything went as planned. The entire staff including chefs and Maitre D were all AMAZING, they made sure we were well taken care of.. literally made us feel like Royalties. The food was outstanding - we still have guest talking about how delicious the food was, and let's not forget how big the portions were. But OMG the Venetian Table 100% recommended.. our guest including my husband and I were blown away by it. Till this day, we still have guest telling us "It was the best wedding they've been to" - this couldn't of happened without the help of the entire staff, Nicky and Vinny. We just want to say THANK YOU! Words cannot express our gratitude. Love, Kassandra & Peter

en in love with this venue the first time I went to see it and I could not have envisioned my wedding going any better. Vinny and Nick were very knowledgeable about the best way to execute what I wanted for my wedding and I am very greatful for their suggestions and professionalism. We had so many compliments from guests on the quality of the food, the service, and the ambiance of the ball room. Our Maitre de was wonderful and kept us informed on the series of events throughout the night. I’d highly recommend Villa barone as a top choice for anyone looking for an outstanding wedding venue.

resses worked with attention to detail in every aspect of the reception from the moment the limo pulled in to the venue until the bride and groom departed. I received many amazing comments from our guests related to the venue, the quality of the food and the service provided

about our vision and he made it possible! I had particular requests that I wanted to make our day unique and John was very flexible and accommodating. Throughout the process we were able to get in touch with him quickly and easily and ask any questions we needed. We loved the lake side property for our first look which added even more depth and scenery to our wedding pictures. It was great that it was so close to the venue and made transportation very easy. We were able to get to the venue a couple hours before our ceremony to take pictures with our family and Villa Barone was extremely accommodating. They had waters, drinks and an antipasto board in the bridal suite for our wedding party to snack on in between pictures and the ceremony. We worked with Vinny during the day of the wedding and couldn't have been happier. John and Vinny coordinated all of our special requests and made the day seamless. We LOVED our day of matradee, Robert and bridal attendant Brianna. They were so helpful in every way! Whether it was sticking to our timeline, helping with the wedding dress bustle, giving family members leftovers at the end of the night and everything in between. Our guest LOVED the venue and the food! Every single guest came up to us or texted us after the wedding saying how impressed they were with the venue and the abundance of food. We chose the 2nd food package and were blown away by how much food came with it for the per plate cost. (Definitely the lowest price we came across!) Guests were talking about the dessert hour for days and LOVED it! We were able to request special dishes during cocktail hour and the sit down dinner. We were so so happy with the day of the wedding, the rehearsal, the walkthroughs and the planning process. Villa Barone is extremely professional and accommodating and gives the absolute MOST for the LOWEST cost we saw. We are forever grateful to have had our wedding there and will forever recommend it to all!

ne went above and beyond to make sure that we and our guests had an experience that we will never forget. If you want the Wedding Day of your dreams, you WILL find it at Villa Barone Hilltop Manor.

nny treated us like we were family. The attention to detail, elegance, and perfection given by the Villa Barone made the most important day of our lives truly unforgettable. All of the staff are wonderful and truly ensure that each event is absolutely perfect. All of our guests still talk about how our wedding was the best wedding they’ve ever been to. The decor, atmosphere, and ambiance of the venue is truly breathtaking. The food was absolutely delicious and extravagant- not a single one of our guests left hungry! We highly recommend the Villa Barone to anyone considering having an event here. Thank you to Vinny and his family for helping us live our fairytale wedding.

person that said goodbye to us that night raved about the beautiful time they had and, most importantly, how stuffed they were - Villa doesn’t mess around!!! We worked with Nick throughout planning and he was so beyond hands-on and meticulous I can’t even explain how at ease it made me feel not having to worry about anything. The second we met him we were sold. The staff was just excellent, from waitstaff, to Rob our maitre’d and Sophie my bridal attendant. They are all so professional but also super friendly you feel like you’ve known them forever. My family used to go to the Villa Barone in Pelham Bay so we knew from the start we were in good hands - they’re the real deals. The venue is gorgeous and the grounds are PERFECT for photos, it looks like you’re at an Italian villa. We can’t wait to go back for another event and actually be able to enjoy the food!!! 1000/10. Don’t even think twice!

everyone was over the top amazing to work with. Villa Barone was absolutely amazing from the owners, to the maitre d, bridal attendant, secretary Melissa who answered my calls and emails and gave me detailed responses to my 100 questions. Day of coordinator is not needed with these highly experienced professionals. The set up my decorations beautifully and packaged it up nicely for pick up. The whole day was beyond seamless and perfect and the entire year of planning they were great with communication and planning.

rofessional banquet managers I have ever experienced. They have you, as a bride, at the center of their work. They took my vision and turned it into a reality, more than I ever could have imagined. Every one of my ideas, big or small, was taken so seriously and with such care; and even if I thought it couldn’t work, they made it work, and to the highest standard. My bridal attendant, Rachel, was simply perfect. She was so attentive on our wedding day, making sure we were happy and perfectly taken care of throughout the day. They’re not kidding when they say your wedding goes by in a flash, you get pulled in a ton of different directions, or you don’t have the chance to eat. Respectfully and with so much care, Rachel pulled us away to make sure we ate, were present, and that we had the best time. Which brings me to the food! Amazing. The Villa Barone Hilltop Manor has the best food I have ever had at any wedding, period. The cocktail hour was endless, dinner was superb, and the Viennese was magical. I would recommend the Villa Barone Hilltop Manor to anyone getting married, or having any event. It really is the perfect place.

ery helpful and made us feel like family. Made me want to get married all over again.

off without a hitch and we have gotten so many calls and texts raving about the wedding! The food and drinks were endless! The staff makes you feel like family and we’re so attentive and personable since the day we booked our wedding. Thank you soooo much Vinny, Johnny, Ashley and the entire villa barone staff!! The bartenders and waiters as well so beyond sweet and personable. We can’t say enough good things, do yourself a favor and book your wedding with them they will not disappoint!

n stars, we would! From the first moment we met with Vinny to tour the venue we were treated like family. When we arrived on the day of the wedding, not a detail was missed. The entire staff was amazing, and Luigi, Vico, and Rachael were exceptional. Everything was so well organized and timed to perfection. The food was outstanding, and we are still getting calls from family and friends raving about the food and the venue. I can’t tell you how many times we have been told “it’s the best wedding we have ever been to”. Our daughter and son in law truly had a magical and perfect wedding thanks to everyone at this amazing and stunning venue, we thank you all from the bottom of our hearts!!! Nancy & Al LaMarca

the food, the attention to every detail....absolutely fantastic. Alexis assisted the wedding couple and was always there to help them. She was amazing! Luigi ran the room...again top notch. The venue looked beautiful and my daughter had the wedding of her dreams. You can not go wrong booking this venue. Fabulous!

From our first meeting/tour, Vinny welcomed us and made us feel like family. It felt like home. The entire staff was extremely attentive and so much fun to be around. The inside and outside of Villa Barone is just breath taking. The food was amazing and the Viennese hour, OUT OF THIS WORLD. It is 1000000% a must have. We have not stopped talking about the day. It was absolutely perfect. We cannot recommend this place enough. The amount of phone calls and texts that we received after the wedding from family and friends telling us how beautiful it was and how much fun they had was endless. This venue will no doubt blow your mind and make your special day unforgettable. We love you Vinny and the Villa Barone family!!!! - Nicole & Christopher Carducci

went above and beyond. As did their wonderful staff. Photos at the lake house and at the Villa Barone Hilltop were breath taking. The food was superb and never ending from the cocktail hour to the amazing Viennese hour. The service and attention to every detail FLAWLESS! We all felt like royalty.

ely perfectly. The food, the dancing, the photo locations, the showmanship, the energy, everything was done flawlessly. This team knows weddings like none other and are organized and pristine. We knew when we got engaged that the expertise of VBHM was unparalleled and they threw us the most incredible Italiam wedding of our dreams.

ke family. Amazing venue, amazing food, and amazing staff.

irst-look pictures at, and the absolute best value around for a wedding venue. I was treated like an absolute princess the entire night. The staff were phenomenal and they genuinely wanted me to have the best night of my life (and I did)! They kept the night flowing smoothly and allowed me opportunities to talk with my guests but kept me on track with my schedule. No matter the request, big or small, they made it happen. My bridal attendant and maitre d both went above and beyond to make sure the night went smoothly. They dealt with any hiccups professionally and with quick attention to make sure I didn't have to disrupt my night. I felt safe and so taken care of by the staff. Next, the food was amazing!! By far the best wedding food I've ever had. And the desserts, oh my goodness, absolutely fabulous! I received numerous positive reviews about the desserts and displays that came with it. But the best part for me was actually the cake! It was delicious, moist, and so flavorful. It looked gorgeous and tasted even better. We loved that we got to customize it completely to our liking! I cannot thank The Villa Barone for everything they did for me that day, it was a night I will never forget! And neither will my guests!!!

through those doors we were treated like family! I will forever love and be grateful to Vinny. He was with me every step of the way to help me achieve my goal of having a CRAZY club wedding. The lake front property is GORGEOUS. From the moment we walked in, we were treated like royalty. Rob, Nick and Luciana were with me every step of the way. They made sure we had drinks and food at every moment. They planned everything so well to make sure we were taken care off. Let’s talk about the food…..PHENOMENAL. My guests are still texting us about how much food there was and HOW AMAZING IT WAS. They made us try everything they had and it was the BEST food I have ever had at a wedding. I have gone to a lot of weddings but never one where all the food was great. The entrees were delicious! Nothing was bad or just OK. The cake was the BEST cake ever. I had so many guests text me saying this was the best cake at a wedding they ever had and I 100% agree. I have never had such a good wedding cake. The venue is absolutely stunning. None of the other venues we went too made us feel like family like the Villa Barone did. Vinny, Nicky, Rob, Luciana and ALL the Villa Barone team, I want to thank you for making my wedding perfect and my dream wedding come to life. You will all have a special place in my heart forever!!! Can’t wait to have my future parties with you all ❤️ PS Vinny- I’m going to miss contacting you with all my crazy wedding ideas 😂😂😂

organized venue by far. The food was fantastic and everyone still talks about their venetian hour, INCREDIBLE! Also, thank you Danielle who was always be my side, making sure myself and my husband were always satisfied. She had such a great personality, and such a great person. amazing experience all around and they made it magical for both of us as well as our guest.
