Love Owera!!
BEST TEAM & VENUE - cannot recommend Owera enough!!
Wedding Date: September 11, 2021 (during height of Delta surge)
My husband proposed the night before Thanksgiving, Nov 2020. We didn't want a really long engagement, but knew finding a venue for fall 2021 would be nearly impossible with so many 2020 weddings being rescheduled. We looked at four venues and Owera was the only place with a Saturday available (plus, I was going for a rustic + elegant vibe and the barns I saw were too rustic). From how well the grounds were kept to the professional staff to the vineyard/tent setting, it was everything we didn't know we were dreaming of!
And then, we actually planned and hosted the wedding. Jordan, our coordinator, was INCREDIBLE!! She walked me through timelines, shared checklists, and keep us apprised of all the changing covid guidelines. She was my partner in crime and recommended so many other vendors in the area, was transparent about who was easy to work with, and how to think about certain elements of the process (especially in the strange covid world). In late August, the Delta variant was running rampant and our guests were worried about how we were keeping everyone safe. NY hadn't instituted any restrictions at that point, but we decided to have everyone get tested - vaccinated or not - to ensure 130+ guests coming together was as safe as could be (we had plenty of guests decline our event due to not feeling comfortable, but many were able to make it).
Our wedding day was perfect, Jordan & the Owera team were outstanding (even when one of my bridesmaids got stung by a bee before the ceremony - they ran out to get benedryl cream!), and couldn't have imagined celebrating anywhere else. I am very type-A, but was incredibly calm leading up to the wedding - mostly because the Owera team is so terrific. HIGHLY recommend Owera for an upstate/central NY wedding, they take amazing care of each couple!
Oh WOW Owera!
When the time came for us to ultimately decide to postpone our big day Jordan and the rest of the Owera team were extremely accommodating. They picked up our 10/10/2020 plans and put them down on 10/9/2021. We were so relieved after hearing all of the horror stories of what couples postponing went through that all of our vendors were truly accommodating, flexible and helpful when it came to this difficult decision.
Because life is weird and because we postponed we ended up accepting jobs in another state and moving in August of 2021 effectively making our commute to our own wedding in October 7 hours. We were stressed about moving, starting new jobs, the wedding we had spent two years planning, and everything in between. Jordan and the team at Owera made sure our day was exactly what we envisioned down to the string lights I pined over and requested way back in 2019. I couldn't have asked for a better venue.
The tent was perfect, even in October (I had been nervous it would be cold and it wasn't at all!) and actually helped a lot of our guests feel more comfortable due to COVID- the terrace served as a great outdoor space for people who felt more comfortable out doors. The venue was clean and stuck to regulations set by the county making us and our guests feel safe enough to relax and really enjoy ourselves!
Our "guest book" was Owera wine bottles at each table used as theh table numbers that we plan to drink on each corresponding wedding anniversary. When we cheers our glasses each year and sip our Owera wine we will think fondly of our day and we are so grateful.
