Thanks to the Colgate Inn for an Amazing Day!

Going with the Colgate Inn for our wedding reception was the best decision we could have made. From the service to the food to the bridal suite, everything was wonderful and exceeded our high expectations. We received so many compliments from our guests about how much they loved the Inn, and several guests mentioned that they wanted to come back to visit even though they don’t live anywhere close to the area. We don’t live in the area but have family nearby and will definitely be back plenty of times in the future.

Jana and her staff really took great care of us. They were accommodating of our requests and worked with us extensively to make sure that the whole weekend would go smoothly. We also used the Inn for our rehearsal dinner the night before our wedding, and went to the Tavern for brunch the day after the wedding, as well as for drinks the night before our wedding, and had a great experience with everything.

Thanks to Jana and everyone at the Colgate Inn for everything!!! We couldn’t have asked for a better weekend and can’t recommend the Colgate Inn highly enough!

Great catering service. Thank you, Jana!

I am so happy that I chose to have the Colgate Inn cater my wedding, and even happier that JANA was the person who helped me through the entire process. I was planning everything from overseas and had very limited time in the area in the year leading up to the big day. Jana always found a way to fit me in and was incredibly helpful, informative, and quick in answering the million emails I sent her. She went above and beyond with details I hadn’t even thought of and that she really didn’t even need to help me with! The day of the wedding, she and her team made sure everything ran smoothly. Plus, the food was great! What else could you ask for?

Jana and her staff at the Colgate Inn were absolutely amazing. They were available 24/7 throughout the entire planning process and were by our sides for the weekend as well. Jana is the most caring, organized and wonderful vendor to work with - we HIGHLY recommend using her and her staff for lodging, catering, planning... really anything you need - they do it and do it perfectly.
