I had my absolute dream wedding and it is all thanks to the Allegria Hotel. Especially Mary Cawley the catering manager! The Allegria was the first and only venue I looked at. What I loved about it right off the bat was that you can have everything in one place and my guests don't have to travel. Ceremony on the rooftop, cocktail hour upstairs, the reception downstairs and the guests can stay off if they wish! The planning process was so easy and honestly fun. Mary is on top of everything! She would reach out when things were coming up or due. Such as the food tasting, money payments, seating charts and more. She was super response and worked with me on certain things I have envisioned and how we could make that work. The day of she was there every step of the way. Even helped me cool off from all my dancing! haha My guests were obsessed with the venue and had such a great time. Don't think twice about booking the Allegria for your wedding!

We had a beautiful, small ~50 person luncheon wedding at the Allegria in November 2024 on Jack’s Rooftop. It was a great pleasure communicating with Mary, who stepped in and took over brilliantly toward the end of our wedding planning process. We were very lucky to have her as our catering manager and she helped us bring everything to life with a smile and the utmost professionalism. She also handled our ketubah with love and care. The Allegria is lucky to have her. Jessie, Kirk, Sam, Jai and Derek were also stars of the staff for our wedding weekend as well as the excellent catering staff who took care of our guests. We had a snafu with the lock on our suite not working the night before the wedding but it was handled as swiftly as possible by Derek and he did what was needed to make sure we were settled properly. We and my family loved the amenities breakfast the morning of the wedding - and the suite worked out well for us. The staff was great with assisting my father with a wheelchair rental delivered to the hotel. Shout out to Ruben also, while although we didn’t work with him directly, he was very attentive and whenever we ran into him, wanted to make sure we were taken care of. We have magical memories of our wedding weekend and The Allegria was the right choice for us! Thank you again :)

The Allegria Hotel was incredible in helping me plan my wedding!!! The venue, the wedding catering and events manager, the catering sales manager, catering/menu selection, food preparation, the chefs, and the banquet manager provided impeccable service along every step of the way. They moved mountains to make my wedding magical and perfect - especially, considering our wedding was planned in less than 4 weeks. With the Allegria's Dream Team of Superstars, one would think this wedding was 1.5 years in the making! In fact, every guest of my wedding was in awe of the venue's beauty, the oceanside setting, its glamour, and its impeccable service. I think it is important to note that I previously used the Allegria and its staff to host a surprise anniversary party for my parents last year and they were so perfect that I couldn't think of any other venue to host my wedding this year!

First, Randi Fox, was an angel. As our Wedding Events/Catering Manager, she was incomparably dedicated and invaluable. She was always responsive and accessible via email and phone, if not picking up right away, always calling or email me right back. She remembered every detail, was incredible attentive to all of our special circumstances, i.e. Halal specifications for the menu, consideration of my mother's limited mobility and special accommodations for her, and anticipating certain needs for me and my bridal party as well as our guests. Most importantly, she has the kindest and sweetest demeanor that was always genuine and inviting! She was an absolute pleasure to work with and made my wedding planning seem effortless.

Along the same lines, Jessie Whitman, was equally indispensable in helping me set up a wedding block of hotel rooms for my guests and in taking care of my chief guests, i.e. my in-laws. She was amazingly attentive, addressed all of my questions, was always accessible and unfalteringly responsive to my requests. Her persona exudes happiness and it was so evident in her approach to her work.

We had picture perfect day to get married on the rooftop's pool deck, overlooking the ocean. Immediately following our marriage ceremony, the cocktail hour began, which took place in the rooftop bar lounge. While my husband and I didn't get to personally experience cocktail hour ourselves (we were off with our photographer taking wedding photos on the beach during sunset!), per our guests, the cocktail hour was spectacular!!! Friends and family have continuously regaled my husband and I with stories of the how blown away they were with the quantity of food available during the cocktail hour, the presentation of the food stations and the servers, the fun mocktails, and most importantly, how mouthwateringly delicious it all was.

Of course, the cocktail hour served as a prelude to the incredible dinner and dessert courses - all compliments going to the exquisite efforts of the Allegria's chefs, Chef Frank and Chef Justin. Again, every wedding guest with whom I have spoken stated (with the highest degree of enthusiam and excitement) that they had never eaten better at a wedding! The vegetables and fruits were crisp and fresh. the entrees were prepared flawlessly and were simply scrumptious: the chateaubriand with mushrooms was delectably tender, the herb-roasted chicken piccata was perfectly seasoned and juicy, the roasted salmon impeccably flaky and light with a teriyaki sauce that had an exacting balance of savory umami and sweetness. The plates looked as delicious as they tasted. Dessert was out-of-this world with a Smores station that rocked and pastries galore!

I could not have been more thrilled with the Allegria in hosting my wedding weekend. While the venue's location directly on the boardwalk with the beautiful Atlantic Ocean is its backdrop are unbeatable on Long Island, the staff and the service were the most memorable. I cannot say enough to say how happy they made us and how stunningly they carried out my wedding. I hope to return to it again for future events!!!
