He worked as a home builder for 30 years, and used that experience to create his perfect family home and the stunningly charming wedding barn. Over the course of several decades and with the help of his two daughters, Gordie has finally achieved his dream.

Amazing venue!

We couldn't have asked for a better location for our wedding! Gordie was the extremely helpful and responsive throughout the whole wedding process. All of our guests kept complimenting how wonderful and beautiful the venue was. I highly recommend this venue & I am so happy that we had our wedding here. Thank you, Gordie!

Excellent and memorable wedding venue!

We are so glad we had our wedding ceremony and reception at Silver Queen Farm. We loved working with the owner, and all of our guests kept complimenting us on the barn and farm scenery. The owner was very responsive, flexible and helpful. He recommended a number of vendors that we included in the day, and they were all excellent as well. We loved that it was a working vegetable farm (you’ll find restaurants throughout Ithaca using his potatoes), and that we can come back and visit and pick strawberries when we're in town. We wanted an outdoor ceremony, and luckily the weather cooperated, but we were so glad there was an indoor ceremony option (there was rain in the forecast). We cannot recommend using Silver Queen Farm enough!

A perfect day in a perfect barn

We couldn't have asked for a better location for our wedding! Gordie was the most flexible, responsive, and respectful person I could have asked to work with. I was planning my NY wedding from CA and juggling time zones and logistics, and Gordie was always ready with a response. He made my planning so much smoother than it could have been! He even allowed my family to preview the location before we could see it for ourselves.

It was so nice knowing that I didn't have to rent tables, chairs, etc. The kitchen was perfect for our catering company (Word of Mouth is fantastic!), and our bartenders even brought in a canoe bar for our event! (Bartenders Next Door is great!). The kitchen made clean-up and return a breeze for the vendors.
Having clean, onsite restrooms that were handicap accessible was great for our guests, and the parking for cars and a motorcoach was convenient and plentiful.
In early June, everything was beautifully green, and the weather was perfect. Our guests had a blast playing yard games, dancing, and admiring the beautiful architecture of the barn.
We would choose Silver Queen Farm all over again if we had to! Thank you, Gordie!

This venue was everything we wanted and more! We didn’t have to worry about renting tables or chairs, find parking, or alcohol or noise permits etc. The venue offered its own beauty and the country backdrop was perfect for our ceremony. I definitely recommend booking the day before your wedding to give you time to set up. Gordie was super responsive leading up to the wedding and the day of. I just keep referring to the day as “perfect”, there is no other way to describe our wedding!

Gorgeous venue; outstanding value

Our wedding at Silver Queen went perfectly. The space & locale are beautiful, the owner is helpful & accomodating, and the value is nearly impossible to beat. Comparable venues we looked at sometimes costed several times more -- without the tables & chairs included at Silver Queen! There's plenty of preparatory and kitchen space, too. We got married in front of the fields, which provided a gorgeous backdrop.

Excellent experience

Gordy was simply amazing. He was so helpful and informative, very accommodating, and over all a great guy. The venue was beautiful, and even though it rained and we had to have the ceremony inside, everything came together. He had a backup plan for his backup plan and made everything flow smoothly the day of the wedding. We would definitely have another large event there in the future if we ever needed to.

The queen of all finger lakes wedding venues!

If we could do it all over again, we would keep choosing Silver Queen for our wedding venue every time! Gordie is so easy to work with - as everyone else has said. From beginning to end Gordie made everything as stress-free for us as possible with his "can do" attitude and responsiveness. The barn and surrounding landscape suited us perfectly; our family and friends continue to comment on the "positive vibe" of our wedding. We attribute a huge portion of this positivity to the space Gordie has created at Silver Queen! We are already dreaming of having an anniversary party here. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Great venue and easy to work with vendor

Silver Queen Farm was the perfect venue for my wedding. Gordie was incredibly responsive, easy to work with, and so accommodating. The barn is an extremely affordable venue, yet it is beautiful and allows for lots of flexibility in choosing your own vendors and decorations. I would highly recommend of Silver Queen Farm.

Very good service and venue

Silver Queen is an excellent wedding location. We did both our ceremony and reception there, and Gordie was very accommodating to the guest count, what we wanted, and how we wanted it done. He also gave very constructive feedback on my ideas, and let me know what would work better. Our day ended up running so smoothly and we had a great time.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
