The PERFECT wedding venue!

Drowned Lands provided the absolute perfect venue, food & drink, atmosphere and service for our wedding! We were already in love with the brewery, its beautiful scenery and excellent beers. Every visit, we talked about how it would make the perfect wedding venue. When it came time to start planning our wedding, we knew it was our first choice. After our initial consult, we didn’t even bother visiting other venues. We knew it was the one. Through the entire planning experience, they were helpful and accommodating. Their event coordinator, Cristie, made sure we had everything we needed on our wedding day. She helped make the entire experience smooth and stress-free, even when a surprise rain storm shifted our ceremony indoors 30 minutes before it was scheduled to start. We chose the family-style dinner option and there was so much delicious food. We’ve received endless praise from our guests and we can’t wait to go back post-wedding and continue to support this wonderful brewery! -Jeanette & Joe

Microwedding experience of our dreams

I truly truly could not recommend The Drowned Lands enough!!!! My husband and I planned out wedding in under 3 months, we wanted a small initte gathering of our immediate families but still wanted a wedding vibe. Cristie and the Drowned Lands team were INCREDIBLE! From start to finish, so helpful and accommodating. Our day was better than either of us could have imagined, every detail, every request, everything went off without a hitch. And the FOOD!!!! I've never had more food or a better tasting meal at a wedding, and trust me I've been to/in my fair shre of weddings, I was practically the girl from 27 dresses. The Drowned Lands was already one of our favorite breweries before and now there is no question, the best wedding venue in the hudson valley! 10/10 experience

Absolute best place! A true gem!

I don’t think words can accurately describe how amazing our wedding was at Drowned Lands. We did our entire wedding at venue - ceremony to reception and all pictures. From the moment we connected with Cristie (venue event planner) we knew we had hit the jackpot. The venue itself is stunning- the staff is incredible- and the food was amazing! There wasn’t a person at our event that didn’t comment on all the above. We were planning our wedding with short notice and you would never have known! We got married on NYE and it was everything and more. Cristie went above and beyond to make our day as magical as possible leading up to the wedding and day of. There wasn’t one thing that didn’t go according to plan. I felt like I had my own personal wedding planner - which was a gift! Cristie is a GIFT! Do yourself a favor and book any and all events here! You won’t regret it!

Amazing Wedding Experience

We got married there in October 2024 and it was nothing short of amazing.  The place was stunning and the staff was AMAZING.  Cristie was Wonderfull and helped us so much in the preparation of the day and so did the bar manager, Shannon. But where the venue shines is the day of the event.  Cristie and her team work hard to help make your day happen and it was obvious the effort they put in to make sure your day is exactly the way you want.  They went over and beyond on multiple occasions to accommodate our requests!   I highly recommend having your next event/wedding at drowned lands.

They were always available to answer questions, provide suggestions, and ease any stress, making the planning process seamless and enjoyable.

Perfect place for our welcome party!

Drowned Lands was the perfect space to host my welcome party for my wedding weekend! From the beginning they were so communicative and quick to respond to any of my questions. They even provided a suggested vendor list which made the planning so easy. The space was so beautiful, I barely did any decorations and we got lucky to have a nice summer night where my guests could enjoy the private balcony. Do yourself a favor and consider DL for your next wedding party or event!

Great Venue, great food, great drinks!

We had our welcome party here the day the night before our wedding, we had about 100 guests (so essentially was a mini wedding before the wedding)! The Drowned Lands team was incredibly responsive and accommodating. Food, service, and drinks were all excellent. The outside deck was also a big highlight. I would recommend Drowned Lands to anyone looking in the area.

Exceptional In Every Way

The Drowned Lands has been a favorite spot of my husband and me for years, so when it came time to celebrate our elopement, there was no better place to choose. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by how immaculate the venue was. We opted for a December celebration, and the natural coziness of the space — even without adding much decor — provided the perfect backdrop for our special day.

Throughout the evening, we enjoyed outstanding cocktails and beer, with the bar staff being both attentive and incredibly skilled at keeping up with the high demand. The food was fresh, plentiful, and perfectly suited to the style of party we envisioned. Everything exceeded our expectations, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the hardworking team that made it all come to life.

Drowned Lands October wedding

My husband, Lucas, and I decided to get married at Drowned Lands Brewery because we’ve gone there many times and always loved the decor/vibe of the place. We enjoy their craft beer and casual indoor/outdoor atmosphere. We originally booked in October 2023, before they had a full kitchen, and before they hired their new events director, Cristie. The year between our booking date and our wedding date was a big transition year for them as a wedding venue. As expected, there seemed to be a few growing pains while they developed their new offerings, but once we began working with Cristie she really catered to us to make sure we had the wedding we were promised in our original contract. She executed changes to their staffing and flow to ensure we had the best possible experience with no hiccups. Our wedding day was an absolute dream!! We lucked out with gorgeous late fall weather and the grounds made for amazing photos. Cristie was so professional and went above and beyond to keep everything going smoothly. The bar manager, Shannon, was also a huge help. Lucas and I were greeted with our favorite hazy IPA, and from there we were offered drinks and food from cocktail hour without even asking while we were mingling with guests. One of the most fun parts of the day was when Cristie offered my parents and I a ride on the golf cart into the ceremony. We walked down through the tap room to cheers and whistles on our way to the golf cart and when we arrived at the ceremony site our guests went crazy! The upstairs reception room is so beautiful that couples only need minimal decor to set the scene. We had just under 120 guests and were nervous about fitting everyone and ensuring there was a big enough dance floor (our top priority). The space was perfect!! We had 12 tables and the dance floor was amazing. It was such an intimate atmosphere and everyone there told us they felt comfortable and at home in the space. We got lots of comments about how good the food was. Top favorites were the mashed potatoes, brisket, and salmon. We were able to choose the beers served on tap and some signature cocktails, people raved about the seasonal Sangria. The additional space of the upstairs deck was a game changer!! It was nice to be able to get some air or take a little time away from the music. We did not do a full buyout of the venue which means that the downstairs and some outdoor areas were open to the public . This absolutely added to the magic of the day, as all the customers were respectful of our space and truly seemed to enjoy seeing the wedding. Our ceremony was held outside in front of 3 majestic trees with the sun glowing on a field in the background. Overall I absolutely recommend Drowned Lands as a wedding venue. Friendly staff, delicious food, great beer, and lovely vibes. Thank you for helping us have the best day!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
