My husband and I are Beyond grateful for the entire staff of Villa Borghese! They went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect and magical in every way from the ceremony to the reception. Villa Borghese is beautiful and the food is delicious. They catered to us and our guests like I have ever seen before. Villa Borghese even made the planning processes so easy and stress free! Thank you to all of the staff at Villa Borghese for such a beautiful day!!

Joe was our contact at VB and he was wonderful. He was able to exceed my expectations- especially with last minute requests and room changes. All of the staff at VB are wonderful! The flexibility Joe allowed us made it easy to do business with him. The food was amazing - all of our guests raved about the food, variety, quantity, and selection. I couldnt be any happier with the decision we made to have our wedding at VB.

VB is a wonderful wedding venue in all aspects.GREAT value-the lowest price we found out of many venues close to NYC, AND much nicer than almost all other venues we visited.So much more is included VB’s package than other venues we visited, and without any hidden fees.For example, VB does not charge a service fee, cake cutting fee, etc.A wedding assistant is included in the package.She is extremely well-informed and helped us make all the decisions we needed to make.During the planning phase, we visited several times to decide on food, decoration, etc, and VB was very flexible and accommodated our schedules every time.
It is beautifully decorated and recently renovated with great places for photos. You can have your ceremony at VB for no additional cost.
Everything fell into place perfectly on our wedding day.The VB staff is very organized, attentive, friendly, and helpful. Food was delicious.We really liked the appetizers, and we would recommend the rib-eye steak, salmon, and swordfish for entrées.The included wedding cake was delicious.The Champaign and signature drinks were also very good.They let us use any part of the venue that wasn’t being used to take photos.
The only complaint is that VB requires you to use specific florists for the ceremony and the reception. VB’s packages come with reception centerpieces provided by a great florist, however you if you choose not to use the pkg centerpieces you can use any other florist.This is not the case for the ceremony, for which you could only use 1 specific florist, a different florist, who we found very difficult to work with, had unreasonable prices, would not communicate very basic facts about her pkgs, and refused to show photos of flowers we were paying exorbitant prices for.

The Villa Borghese made my wedding everything I ever dreamed it could be. I first contacted them because I was told they are willing to work with a bride on a budget and they lived up to that. The rooms were recently redone and came out beautiful. The cocktail hour room made my decision complete. Joe and his team were wonderful to work with. Any questions, thoughts, or concerns he would respond asap and was very patient. He was able to give me all the info. I needed and was very flexible with anything I needed or wanted. He gave great input and was beyond helpful during the planning process. The food is absolutely delicious, the decor is beautiful, the people are wonderful...I cannot say enough good things about our experience there. Thank you Villa Borghese and Joe for making our wedding so wonderful.

When my husband and I first started planning our wedding, we checked out many different venues in the area and none of them compare to Villa Borghese! We fell in love with the place the second we saw it! Both the outside and inside of this venue are gorgeous, and being that we had a fall wedding, the outside of the venue was very important. It poured on our wedding day, and we did not have to worry about a thing, Villa switched our ceremony location from outside to inside and we had the ceremony in the room our reception was held. The staff members who were working our wedding as well as the maître d' were all very attentive and made me feel very comfortable. One thing I will say, if you are a bride who wants to be the only one getting married at the venue the day of your wedding, this is not the place for you. They usually have 2 other weddings going on during the same day. Also, because of the fact there were multiple weddings going on, the main entrance area and all the other locations of the venue besides our room were very loud, and we had 2 drunken wedding crashers come into our reception room that I (the bride) had to tell to leave. This was one of the only issues we had that night, but if this would ruin your day, take it into consideration. Overall the place is beautiful and we are so happy that we picked this venue for our wedding!

After visiting a few other venues we knew the Villa was what we wanted. The atmosphere with all the great photo ops right on site was just what we were looking for not over the top gaudy which is not our style. Just classy. The food, service, attention to detail from begining to end was top notch. They know what their doing, leave it in their hands and you have a lot less to worry about.

Aboslutely Amazing !!!! The Villa Borghese did such a wonderful job for my special day Oct 6, 2012. I couldnt have asked for anything better! Joe and Paul Porco make a great team and made my wedding planning a breeze. They gave excellent recomendations and adviced on how to plan, and make my visions into a reality. We had our coctail hour upstairs and it was a beautiful day so we got to use the terrace outside so there was plenty of room. The reception followed into the Grand Ballroom and the new lighting matched my color scheme, it was awesome! Our Maître d' was Miguel and he was always right there, he always made sure we had a drink in our hand and that we were having fun! The food was out of this world, and the guests are still raving about it, the salmon seemed to be the favorite but i l loved the Filet mignon and the twice baked potatoes... i even aked for another one!! They had all the food out in a timely fashion so noone was rushed, and yet we had plenty of time to dance. We had 170 people at our wedding and i have yet to hear one complaint.The Viannese Hour definitly WOWed our guests, the sparklers, ice sculptures, and desserts were to die for.We had a wild group of people and the dance floor was always packed and the staff was always professional, and did a great job handling our guests.I even had a popcorn and pretzel machine delivered and the staff and the villa set it up and handed the goodies out. There was another wedding going on at the same time and that posed no problems for me, i still got to take all my pictures and never saw the other bride at all. I can not express how HAPPY i am with how my wedding turned out and I even left telling them i wanted to do it all over again!!!

My husband and I had been searching for a Wedding venue for a few months. After attending a friends 50th Birthday party at The Villa Borghese and having a blast we decided to go in for a consultation. We fell in love with the place the second we saw it! Both the outside and inside of this venue are beautiful especially after the renovation they have just done. We met with Erica who is the most sweetest person ever. After sitting down to discuss the packages we knew this would be the place were we would get married. We went ahead and placed a hold on our date which was Friday, August 31, 2012. We went home and disscussed and within a few hours called back to confirm our date. We wanted to have an outdoor wedding and this place had it all. The staff members who were working our wedding as well as the maître d' were all very nice and attentive. Erica was absolutely amazing she was extremely helpful from the minute I met her to the day of my wedding. We are so happy that we picked this venue for our wedding! Thank you so much for making our day so special and memorable! Mr. & Mrs. DeJesus!!

They were great! open bar, but the drinks were a little weak, however, i dont need a bunch of drunk people at my wedding, so it was perfect! The service was amazing, the maitre d for us was completely on top of things! He was so great! I recomend the Villa over anywhere else in the HV.

We absolutely loved Villa Borghese! We had our ceremony and reception at Villa Borghese and it was absolutely beautiful. The new renovations that were done are great and the place is a great all in one deal and one thing I really loved about this place, that I did not find other places, is that from the moment of inquiry you know how much you are going to pay including tax and everything. The staff is so nice and helpful and I highly recommend this place!

The Villa Borghese has stunning views and an outdoor ceremony area, which is what drew us to selecting them for our venue. As time passes, the event planning staff was very responsive and helpful to make sure that everything would be perfect for our big day. The waitstaff and everyone working our event were beyond amazing! They were courteous, helpful, and joined in on the fun! I absolutely recommend the Villa Borghese for an event!

The Villa Borghese team was very professional. On my wedding day on 10-07-11 I didnt worry about anything. They had everything set up when I got there. The Villa was clean and put together. They were always there to help and answer questions while planning my wedding. You get a lot of choices and there is a lot of stuff included with the packages they offer. Everyone at my wedding kept saying I cant believe how much food is here. I Reccommend the Villa Borghese to any Bride and Groom out there.
