The Only Venue You Should Look At For Your Wedding

Where do I begin? From the service, food, and space, The Inn on Broadway excelled in all areas. We worked with Abbye, Baille and Hannah to plan the event and had nothing but positive experiences with all of them. They are buttoned-up professionals who know how to plan a wedding. I had a million questions and changes to details throughout the planning process and all of my emails were answered same day, and most of the time, same hour! The entire staff at the Inn on Broadway catered to all of my guests' needs. Everyone keeps raving about the service and food. We particularly enjoyed Chris' expertise on all things food/beverage (and he's great with kids!)
Call me crazy, but I wish I could do it all over again - even the planning. They made it easy and stress-free. You will NOT regret having your wedding here.

All about the details!

We got married at the Inn on Broadway October of 2021 and wouldn't change a thing. We began our planning process in August of 2020, we were undecided on who's hometown we wanted to get married in. Over the course of several weeks we easily saw over 15 venue's between Rochester and Buffalo.

Abbye and her team at the Inn on Broadway were so patient with us as we compared venues and asked numerous questions. We visited the Inn many times before making our decision, the staff their always gave us a warm welcome making us feel at home. We brought our parents along for our final tour and decided to end our evening at Tournedos, the quality of food was amazing and we could see it representing us on our big day. Food was a very important part of our big day, throughout the planning process Abbye worked with culinary team to accommodate our vision and find solutions to our dietary restrictions. Our guests were truly amazed with the quality of food from the hors d'oeuvres, dinner, dessert, and not to mention our farewell brunch.

As a bride with a hectic schedule Abbye was so accommodating. She always responded quickly and made time to meet with us. She remembered all of the small details we discussed in our meetings and executed them. Her attention to detail was so reassuring, when it came to the day of, we weren't anxious about the setup of ballroom at all. Abbye was certain to ask all of the questions in advance and really took the time to get to know us as a couple and our vision. We were so excited to see the ballroom and the reception, as soon as we walked in it was instant tears of joy. We loved and appreciated every small detail that went into creating our perfect reception.

It's been over 4 month and we are still so grateful for Abbye and the team at the Inn on Broadway for our perfect day.

Beautiful Wedding Location With Dedicated Staff

My husband and I pursued the Inn on Broadway as the location for our wedding because we wanted a classy venue that was unique. We chose the Inn on Broadway because of their dedicated staff and their commitment to being there for us throughout the wedding planning process. We loved the warm feeling at the Inn and the hospitality we received. We loved having everything in one location, the ceremony, the reception, and the ability to walk upstairs to your room. Abbye and her team made our requests a reality and were so on top of everything. I knew I could trust the wedding in their hands. After all of the decisions were made, my husband and I were able to enjoy our day. The food was incredible and I know our guests enjoyed everything so much. The desserts were perfection and presented so sweetly. I wish I could do it all over again and relive those memories. I'm grateful our venue is also an Inn and has the restaurant so we can relive our wedding again on our anniversary. Thank you Abbye, Lynn, and the staff for making our wedding so beautiful.

The perfect day

he IOB was exactly what we were looking for in a venue- a classic look with everything all in one! We had our ceremony in the ballroom with beautiful curtains to separate the room and it was wonderful to have fantastic food from Tournedos, a beautiful cake from the bakery and the hotel rooms all right there! The day was a dream come true and exceeded our expectations. Abbye was a great wedding coordinator who kept in touch throughout the pandemic during our planning process and helped to make sure everything went smoothly when some of our rooms booked got mixed up. Our wedding was PERFECT! Heartfelt thanks to everyone who made everything happen at the Inn on Broadway- we are so grateful!

The Inn on Broadway Helped Make Our Day Perfect

From excellent service, to delicious food, to great attention to detail, the Inn on Broadway exceeded our expectations at every level! The Inn coordinated with all of our vendors to create a hassle free day for us. Abbye did a great job of helping us plan, organize, and execute on our vision for the day. The staff covered every detail we requested and went out of the way to make sure our guests were taken care of, including special requests. The Inn was flexible in putting together a customized package that accommodated our preferences. We could not be happier with how our wedding day went and that is a credit to all the hard work that Abbye and her team put into our event. Run, don't walk, to reserve the Inn on Broadway for your Rochester wedding!

Fabulous Venue!

We held our rehearsal dinner (for 30) followed by a welcome drinks party for all of our guests the evening before our son's wedding. Abbye Schmitz, the event coordinator, was extremely helpful in helping us make decisions and was always responsive to all my questions. The rest of the staff was lovely and efficient. The L-shaped ballroom was perfect for our events. The space was beautiful, and the lantern decor we added made the space and table look elegant and cozy. The food was great -steak lovers were thrilled!--and beautifully presented. Dinner was an excellent value, and there were options for different dinner packages. The displays of spiced nuts and popcorn and cheese platters we added for the drinks portion were beautifully presented. Our event was a great success. Everyone loved this beautiful, restored, historic, venue.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
