Villa Venezia

are getting married- babe I'm canceling all the other showings. And the decision was made:) Margherita was great; very attentive and honest, she was a pleasure to work with- Madison was also great, at the rehearsal getting everyone together and making it so easy. The day of our wedding was beautiful- the grounds were so pretty- initially I wanted to have the ceremony under the willow tree but so happy we decided to do it on the concrete section they have.....The food was - OH MY GOSH - delicious! Everyone still talks about it! If you are on the fence on where to celebrate your big day with your friends and family; the Villa Venezia is the place to do it! You can literally have any kind of decor you want and this venue will still be incredible. So a huge thank you to Margherita and the staff for making our day so perfect, beautiful and special! Love P. & J.

of our wedding. They made the process smooth and flawless for us. We were so happy with how wonderful our wedding was thanks to the Villa V. team. A very special recognition to Margherita as well who went above and beyond for me. Thank you so much!! I highly recommend the Villa Venezia, you will not be disappointed. Our wedding is one for the fairy tale books.

there is simply not one negative thing I could say. Day of the wedding was a dream. My guest were at awe on how accommodating the servers were and how freaking amazing the food taste. Almost all of my guest came up to me and said this was the best wedding they have ever been to. They made my day!

ely stunning and gorgeous for photography. Even though our ceremony was at our church the majority of our pictures were taken at Villa Venezia. Margherita was soooo helpful and understanding throughout the entire process. From the moment we met her we knew she would be so easy to work with and was very down to earth, which helped make the planning process that much less stressful and enjoyable. She really catered to us our day of by even helping make sure she prepared plates for us to make sure we ate at cocktail hour and dinner which was so helpful since there is only so much time in the day to do everything and socialize with guests. The tasting was out of this world and the food was absolutely incredible, prior to our wedding people who had been were raving about the food. The cocktail hour had so many stations and choices for everyone (and setup and presentation was AWESOME) and buffet style dinner was also perfect with a large variety and super delicious. Also they recommended the bakery we used Pastry Garden which everyone raved about the cake as well, and cakes from there and a few other bakeries were included in the package which was fantastic. Honestly I am sooooo happy we chose to have our wedding at Villa Venezia and so many of our guests told us it was the best wedding they've ever been to with the venue, food, and DJ we chose. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND VILLA VENEZIA !!!

rry in the back of my mind. We have had so many compliments about of venue from our guest. Ranging from the beautiful layout of the ceremony space, to amazing food at Cocktail hour, and who could forget about the beyond perfect service during the reception. All my girls and I got ready at Villa and when we arrived there that morning everything was fully in order and champagne was in hand. I don't think I could even begin to thank Margherita and her staff for all the attention to detail they gave to make our day 100% perfect. After we had gotten home the following day that one thing that my husband and I kept saying is that we hope one of our friends or relatives gets married there now just so we can be a guest!

the food tasting, the rehearsal, the entire day/night of the wedding, & even the day after so we could pick up what was left behind the night before. We can't thank her enough for all her effort & taking care of us on our big day. The venue is beyond words as well as their food. They provided so much food & everyone loved it. They are very accommodating & we'd do it all again at the same place!!

ur wedding day was everything we wanted. The wedding guest all raved about how amazing the food was and how elegant the venue is. My husband and I cannot say thank you enough to the amazing staff at the Villa Venezia!!!

ly stumbled upon Villa Venezia. Afterward, we went to see it and fell in love. Franco and Margherita listened to our concerns about being on budget and were supportive the entire way. They were never pushy or forced us into things we didn't like or need. Now that the financial part is out of the way, let's talk about the venue itself. It is breathtaking and stunning. It does not look like the typical venue and its not. The decor is beautiful. And the food... Oh my word. Guests are still talking about their meals and our cocktail hour. It was an amazing night and I still think back at how lucky we were to find this place. I highly recommend Villa Venezia.

love with this venue after looking at the pictures on their website. When my husband and I went for a visit we didn’t even get through the doors and knew this was the place where we were going to get married. We worked with Madison throughout the whole planning process and I can’t say enough good things about how caring, professional, attentive, and overall fantastic she was. On the day of the wedding I can’t even begin to explain how fantastic Franco, Madison, and the entire staff were. When I first walked in to get ready before the ceremony, everything was set up and I was blown off my feet. The whole place was absolutely breathtaking and looked so much more beautiful than I could have ever imaged. All of the food during our cocktail hour and dinners were mouth watering. We had around 250 guests and every single one has continued to rave about how fantastic the food was and how there was no way anyone should have left hungry. We added pizza as a to-go station for the guests as they were leaving for the night and that was just the icing on the cake. Our guests were floored at how fantastic the Villa Venezia was with how beautiful each room was, from the bathrooms to the bridal suites, and how great the service was. I honestly cannot say enough good things about how phenomenal this place is and how beautiful our night was. I could not have asked for a more perfect day and everyone at the venue went above and beyond to make our dream wedding a reality. I cannot thank them enough for everything they did for us. They have our utmost respect and I would highly recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat. Keep up the great work and thank you for making our wedding day a day that we will always remember! - Christopher & Jaclene Poley

. The room was breathtaking. Madison was our event coordinator. She was amazing from the first time we even spoke. When we had our initial meeting with her we just loved her. She was so sweet, professional and so accommodating. The shower couldn't have been any more beautiful. The food was excellent and the service was phenomenal. Madison and the staff at Villa Venezia truly made my sister's bridal shower absolutely everything we hoped for. Thank you for making her day so special.

and very pleasant with the services. How the cocktail hour was full of delicious food and drinks. Food was delicious. Yes it was. If I had to do my wedding again , I will definitely would be here in Villa Venezia. Thank you to the owner and his assistants for taking care of every detail , having patient and making sure everything was in order. Thanks a million for everything on my wedding day. Great staff, great food, perfect venue. Love it. From, Mr. and Mrs. Powell, May 20, 2017

ery happy with the care I've received.

riends and family. When you take one step inside the Villa Venezia you will understand how beautiful and breathtaking this place truly is. The decor on the inside and outside creates a beautiful ambiance for a wedding day. The white floors and elegant chandeliers create a very peaceful and romantic feel. We got married outside and could not have dreamed of a more beautiful day. A lot of our pictures were taken outside also and the well manicured lawn and giant willow tree make for the perfect back drop. Margherita was our “go to girl” from the very beginning. She was always there to answer any questions, provide recommendations to us throughout our planning process, and calm any nerves about decisions. She recommended a lot of our vendors to us and we were not disappointed in any of the choices we made. Madison was also SUPER helpful and patient with all our questions and concerns. These two ladies make a great team! The food at this venue is the absolute best in the Hudson Valley. Our guests are still talking three months later about how it was the best wedding food they have ever had. We have been to quite a few weddings at other venues in the area and they don’t even come close in taste compared to the Villa Venezia. The cocktail hour was one of a kind. One of the best parts about choosing this venue is that they make you feel connected, welcomed, and one of a kind on your special day. All the team members at this venue went out of their way to help out and ensure that our wedding day went smoothly. From the moment you arrive til you leave the staff members will take care of you and your guests. We didn’t have to worry about anything the day of our wedding. We would absolutely recommend the Villa Venezia to anyone looking for a venue for their wedding day. We promise you will not be disappointed. A huge thank you to Franco, Margherita, Madison, and all the other staff at the Villa Venezia, xoxo Danielle and John Ingrassia

argherita, she made us feel like family. The staff was emensly professional, personalable, and adapted to our needs. Margherita and Madison made sure we had the best time and were very attentive. The food was amazing, and I just can't say enough about how stunning the venue is! We got married on 10-22-16 which turned out to be a rainy and very cold day. They were able to make the ceremony indoors on short notice and it turned out even more beautiful than I could have imagined. I truly felt like a princess walking down the isle. Food was the most important to us, and this place did not disappoint! Even weeks after the wedding we have friends and family telling us not just how much food there was, but how Good it was. Everyone had an amazing time! If I could do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing!!

dy before photos. We were greeted with a friendly staff upon walking and who were just as excited as we were! Having their ceremony under the willow tree made it truly memorable! The event coordinators were with us every step of the day. We utilized the larger ballroom and having the dance floor in the center of the ballroom made it impossible for guests to stay seated. The food was amazing! They were able to make a vegan dish for my sister and all the other choices were amazing. I had the sliced chateaubriand which practically melted in your mouth! Nobody left that wedding hungry, but if they did, there was fresh baked cookies and coffee for take out. It was the perfect end to the night. Villa Venezia knows how to throw an amazing wedding!

. It can make any occasion feel glamorous. The staff was very attentive and made us feel like family. While doing photos outside, the staff brought out food so none of us missed out on cocktail hour. Margherita made sure our family was happy. She was so wonderful from lining us up for the ceremony to packing up our signs and candles at the end of the night. For any engaged couples, I fully recommend having your wedding at Villa Venezia! I can't wait til another family member or friend gets engaged, I would love to be a guest here again!!

l day, Villa Venezia! We will try our best to keep this short even though we could write an endless amount singing the praises of Franco Fidanza and his staff… There are a few key elements that set this venue in its own lane: their food, the interior of the building, the grounds, their impeccable attention to detail, the family like bond between the management and staff and the professionalism and high quality service that was extended to our guests. Did we mention the food?! It’s been two weeks and we still have guests begging us to just have a simple back yard party as long as Villa Venezia can cater it!! We personally eat wedding dinners almost every weekend of wedding season and we’ve never come across a spread that is as abundant or as high quality as Franco’s. The cocktail hour alone could have sufficed for the entire night! We had a few dietary restrictions and the chef, Mike made certain to go above and beyond our expectations making sure every single thing that was sent out of his kitchen was perfection. If someone told us that a wedding venue could be crisp, clean, and modern - yet homey and welcoming, we wouldn’t believe them until we walked into Villa Venezia. It is elegant and timeless. With the rooms they have to offer, there are so many choices on what you could do with that space no matter what you envision on your wedding day. Same with the grounds! You can have your ceremony on site either on their brand new stone patio or under their romantic Willow Tree. Everything is so well manicured and no matter what time of year it is they always have different flowers bloomed! You’re minutes from huge hotels and the local major highways yet you feel tucked away in your own private world. Now Madison… She is the best – now let us repeat – THE BEST Maitre D’ imaginable. She is so sweet, courteous, and just lovely. Her attention to every detail was amazing to say the least. With our experience, you can imagine how neurotic we were with the planning process. Madison never missed a beat. Even though it’s a big plus that they only have one wedding going on per day, she made it feel like we were the only wedding that entire year. Everything was centered around us and what we envisioned for our fairy tale wedding. No matter how many times we emailed, she would respond within hours and would be so eager to help us. No other venue offers the same intimate interactions we experienced at Villa Venezia. The day of our wedding literally EVERYTHING was perfect.. every single detail. If anything happened to go wrong that day, we couldn’t even tell you because we didn’t notice and we knew that the staff had it covered. To Franco, Madison, and each and every staff member: Thank you for making our dreams come true!!! And thank you so much for treating our family and friends like guests in your own home. Xoxo Mr. & Mrs. Bernstein

ts are still telling me that my wedding was the best they have ever been to. Thank you Villa Venezia !!!

o pleasant and friendly. We fell in love with the chandelier room from the moment we saw it!! We are so glad we chose it because everyone can't stop talking about how beautiful Villa Venezia is! We can't wait to plan our next celebration in the gorgeous chandelier room.

was very professional and accommodating to all the guests. I would highly recommend this place for your future events. I want to thank the whole staff of Villa Venezia for helping to make my daughters sweet 16 a wonderful experience.

There is no venue that compares, trust me i had two years to research! The owner Franco takes pride in his business and it shows! He worked with our budget, our vision, and even was present along with Margherita on the day of our wedding to make sure we had everything the way we wanted! Where else do you get that?! If you are reading this review, your search should stop here! Villa Venezia is truly one of kind! My husband and I are so happy and grateful to have had such an amazing wedding experience! We will be back there again in our future for sure!

t amazing wedding at THE ONE AND ONLY, Villa Venezia!!! We couldn't wait to post our review!!! THANK YOU VILLA VENEZIA!!!!!!!! Here's some background: We researched over 20 venues, including Westchester, New Jersey and New York (both NYC and upstate). Name a top wedding venue in the area, we either visited onsite or did our extensive homework online. A step further, my wife and I are both 30 years old, dating for 10 years. :) FRANCO, Margerita and the entire Villa Venezia staff- THANK YOU - especially from us, as well as every single one of our guests. From the initial planning processes all the way to our wedding after party, what a fantastic and beautiful experience! This venue is absolutely STUNNING. The FOOD - oh madone, melted in your mouth, DELICIOUS. Cocktail hour, dinner, dessert - our guests CANNOT stop ranting and raving about the food!!! The venue grounds are BEAUTIFUL. The foyers, ballrooms, bathrooms, bridal suites, everything is just stunning. We cannot say enough great things about Villa Venezia. Franco is a man of his word. I hope to keep in touch with them over the years. Truly, an unforgettable day. With no exaggeration, the past few days, our cell phones have been non-stop with random texts and calls about our wedding - EVERYONE had the most amazing time!!!! WE WANT TO GET MARRIED AGAIN!!!!!! We cannot stop talking about our wedding!!!!!!!! This venue took such good care of us. We enjoyed EVERY SECOND of our wedding day - and Villa Venezia made this a reality for us. Thank you, thank you, thank you so very much. You have our utmost recommendation!!!!!! Keep on rocking and best of luck and good fortune to everyone at the Villa Venezia! NEXT UP: THE HONEY MOON!!!!!! With Love, Joseph & Krystal

re of everything we asked and much more. Despite being one of the most beautiful venues we have seen the food was beyond restaurant quality. The entire staff worked throughout the night to make sure our guests wanted for nothing. We have not stopped hearing praises from our guests. If you are considering any event the Villa Venezia should be at the top of your list!!!

detail. We were sold; that was it for us; no more venue search! Our Wedding at The Villa Venezia, was truly one of a kind. As one guest exclaimed, it was beautiful, classy and elegant! We had an onsite wedding on August 15, 2015, and four months later, our friends and family are still ranting and raving about the quality of service and the delectable food. We are from the Caribbean, and the staff allowed us to bring the alcoholic beverages we needed to serve our guests, and to create our signature drink. We had the best team of professionals to work with, ever! They were instrumental in helping us execute the wedding day we dreamt of. My friends couldn't believe how calm and stress free I was during the entire planning process and on my wedding day. Thank you Villa Venezia for a job well done! Martina and Alex were phenomenal; Martina was at my side throughout the event and catered to our every need. You and the entire staff truly exceeded our expectations! We are very pleased with our experience at Villa Venezia. Again, a heartfelt "thank You!"

attentive to my needs throughout planning my wedding, up to the big day. They were quick to respond with any questions or concerns I had, and the service on my wedding day was great! If there were any problems, I had no clue about it BRIDES THAT IS HOW IT SHOULD BE!!! There professionalism is the best I have experienced. We had an onsite wedding, and it made me speechless it was so beautiful! I can't say enough about this place. My family and friends are still talking about the food, service, and what a beautiful wedding it was. Thank you Villa Venezia for making my wedding day a dream come true!

white glass surrounding, breathtaking lighting fixtures, and up-lighting which can be set to almost any color for an unforgettable ambiance. The new addition to the building is bright and just as amazing as the rest of the venue space. The most impressive and appreciated thing about this venue was the service and treatment by Villa Venezia’s owner and staff. During the planning process we had so many questions and ideas about our wedding day. Franco and his staff answered our questions and did everything possible to make our day special. They were so flexible and so easy to work with! The day of our wedding at Villa Venezia went off without a hitch. When we saw the ceremony, cocktail, and reception areas we were overwhelmed with how awesome everything looked. We tried to think of every detail and the venue was the main component. The food was never ending and so good! We had so many options to choose from in order to build the perfect menu for both the cocktail hour and reception. Each dish tasted better than the next. Throughout the entire night Franco, Martina, and Alex were asking if there was anything we needed in addition to insuring that our guests were enjoying themselves. Our guests are still texting, emailing, and calling us saying that they have never been to a wedding like ours. The beautiful venue, spectacular service, delicious food, and the owner’s and staff’s flexibility to add all of our personal touches led to the wedding event that we had always dreamed of!! Thank you Villa Venezia for a day that we will always remember!

ect. The venue is well-kept and the service was amazing!

building we knew we had found the right place. The lobby, cocktail area, and ballroom are simply stunning. I really enjoyed working with Margherita and Martina. Martina was amazing at the tasting and was able to answer any questions we had about the menu. I was also very happy when Margherita joined the team. She was extremely helpful and on point with every detail. She didn't overlook any details and any concern I had she addressed immediately. The food at the Villa and the assortment of food is outstanding. My guests were amazed by the cocktail hour. The main course was just as delicious! Also the setup of the ballroom is great because it allows for all of your guests to see what is going on. The projection screens allowed us to make the wedding our own. The size of the ballroom allowed my guests to dance the night away. The pacing of the night was also wonderful. The duet course was on the table when the guests walked in so they could eat and get right to dancing. The night of the wedding Martina was phenomenal. She was consistently taking care of the bridal party bringing over drinks and food. From the moment we arrived to the end of the night I never had to worry about food or drinks. It was a night that I will never forget. My guests continue to tell me that it was the best wedding they had ever attended. The beauty of the place, the quality and quantity of food, the amazing waiters and bartenders, and the quality staff made it a day to remember. Also the grounds outside were beautiful for pictures. Thank you very much Alex, Franco, Martina, and Margherita for making my wedding the best day ever!!!

king and all of my guests talked about it and were in such awe during cocktail hour. Franco & Margherita are amazing to deal with and Alex and Martina never stopped for a second to make sure we were 100% happy with everything (No matter how annoying I got) The food...just wow. I don't think that words could describe how delicious their food is here. I wish that I could eat there every week. (They really should open a restaurant haha) We went for a food tasting a couple months ago and it was really good. But somehow it was 100 times better the day of!! (which we thought it would be the opposite bc of the mass amounts they would have to make.) It is now 11 days after our wedding and guests are STILL talking about how amazing the food was. Everything was so Tender, flavorful, fresh, beautifully plated... just plain heaven in your mouth. I highly recommend anyone looking for a venue to go with Villa Venezia! they truly go above & beyond with every single thing that they do and they make sure every single detail of the venue, food, and bride & grooms wants are nothing less than Perfect!

office persons of my name and event details. I had many calls that were never returned. The venue, as a reception site was nice. There is an eyesore to the right of the facility. I wanted to have an outdoors wedding and while it does have grounds that could be landscaped to be nice and presentable, it was not at the time of my visit. The menu is a tad pricey if you're looking for a bargain. At the time when I visited (Spring 2014) the prices per person were upward of about $110.

edding and all of our vendors were top notch and worked exceptionally well together. The food was fantastic and the entire staff was on top of everything. The bartenders and the wait staff were awesome! I personally want to thank Sher Singh for her top notch professionalism. She made sure that every detail was taken care of and truly made our day special. Franco, Paula and their staff wanted to make sure that our day would be perfect and it was. They pay attention to detail and it was clear that they are professional and want to make sure that their clients are happy! We had the best team of vendors: DJ's Victor and Jay Vargas, Lisa Zaro, Tecache Photography and MSV Entertainment, The Pastry Garden, and Flowers by David Anthony. I want to thank you all for an amazing day and you all work amazingly well together. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! for making May 2, 2015 the best day of my life!

The food was outrageous and the presentation was outstanding. All of our 240 guests were extremely impressed and raved about the set up and meal, which is an accomplishment since most of the guests that attended are in the food industry and are extremely judgmental. Going to the Villa Venezia was the best decision my husband and I ever made for our wedding. The lack of stress knowing that we did not have to worry about anything involving the venue helped to make our day enjoyable as well as memorable. I cannot thank the staff at the Villa enough and if I had to, I would choose them again to host such a special event. I recommend the Villa Venezia to anyone planning their wedding.

h all our of questions, no matter how trivial. The food was delicious; all of our guests raved about the food (and are still raving a month later). The staff was so attentive to us the night of our wedding; we felt like royalty. The bar tenders were top notch; I've never been to a wedding where people commented on the bar tenders, but our guests did. It's been a month and we're still receiving positive reviews about our reception. We really cannot say enough about the wonderful time we had.

oncierge for the night and she was great. I couldn't have been happier with my wedding and I highly recommend this venue.

ng to the see the venue they were very warm, gracious and welcoming. We new this was the venue for us! Their attention to detail was impeccable and responded to every email in a timely fashion. The food... what can we say?! Delicious!!! We were blown away at our tasting and even more so during our reception. Our guests raved about our cocktail hour and the amount of food which was served. Villa Venezia had our signature drink and even offered to create a duet entree for Michael and I as we loved all the entrees and couldn't decide on just one for us. We are so happy we chose the Villa Venezia for our special day, this will forever be a day we will remember and would highly recommend this venue.

uickly they were able to do so. They worked hand in hand with all of our selected vendors and made things seamless both before, during and after the wedding! We felt like we truly had an incredible team in our corner with all their support throughout the planning process. The food was unbelievable! Based on the amazing tasting experience, we couldn’t imagine the food being any better the day of the wedding but we were pleasantly surprised when they exceeded, by far, our expectations! We still have family and friends raving about the food and quality of service. The day of the wedding, Franco and staff treated us like royalty. They guided us through every moment of the night and everything flowed seamlessly. The Villa Venezia is a beautiful venue with wonderful staff, outstanding food, reasonable pricing and a passion to exceed your expectations. We are so proud of the experience we had with Franco and his team at the Villa Venezia that we would recommend the venue to all future brides and grooms! We definitely plan on having more events there!

ke us happy and help us in any way they could through the planning. They were very patient and genuinely cared about our wedding. Including the kitchen and the food...we were completely blown away! I have never been to a venue in the Hudson Valley where the food was not only edible but consistently delicious! We received the same quality food the night of our wedding with 200 people as we did at our private tasting, and all of the guests were raving about it! I have been to plenty of weddings and venues in the Hudson Valley and I can safely say that Villa Venezia completely blows the rest of them out of the water. It is not like the rest of the wedding "factories". They made us feel special and that our wedding was just as important to them as it was to us. I cannot say enough positive things. And all of our guests were just as happy and could not stop talking about this new gem of a venue! Thank you again to the Villa Venezia family!! :) -Mr. And Mrs. Warren Stanton Jr.

the service. For a new hall, the owner had our best interest to create the perfect night for us and exquisite setting. The mirrors, chandeliers, beautiful white and black and white floors and damask wallpaper was stunning. All our pictures are amazing due to that particular background. We are proud and pleased beyond on how the event turned out. They are truly on the right path!! We hope you choose this venue, too, to enjoy it as much as we had. We unfortunately didn't have the opportunity to have the ceremony on its new construction but they worked with us and it was better than we could've imagined.

but gasp with how stunning everything is. Villa Venezia embodies elegance, class and perfection. The attention to detail is amazing, every single feature of Villa Venezia is simply stunning. On top of it being aesthetically gorgeous, the food is beyond amazing-every single one of our guests raved about how delicious all the food was, from the cocktail hour to the reception. Amazing food!! The staff at Villa Venezia are the greatest people to work with, talk about accommodating and flexible, they made sure everything was exactly how we envisioned and then some!! They really made us feel so special during the whole wedding process. You definitely get the personal care and attention when working with employees at Villa Venezia. We had the most wonderful experience working with everyone at Villa Venezia!!! We highly recommend booking Villa Venezia as your wedding venue, you will be so glad you did!! We have been to plenty of weddings all over the county and absolutely no venue in the area even comes to close to Villa Venezia !!!
