Larissa L. Married on 11/26/2021The perfect wedding day!
Right from the start, the Smithville Inn team was amazing to work with. Justine, Erin and the entire staff was super responsive in answering all our questions. We loved the historic vibe of the venue and the fact that there’s only one wedding per day. You can really feel the personalized attention from their entire team. We did both the ceremony and reception on site, and everything was perfect.
The Absegami room was a beautiful, intimate ceremony space that was then quickly transformed into a fun cocktail hour space. The food was incredible! Our guests raved about the food from cocktail hour through dessert. Highly recommend adding the slider station; the brisket sliders were amazing! The bartenders were great, we loved the flexibility of adding alcohol upgrades and including signature wedding drinks. For dessert, we added the milk and cookie bar which was a huge hit with our guests and made for a great favor. From start to finish, the Smithville Inn was amazing and we had the perfect wedding day. We can’t thank their team enough for making our dream wedding a reality!-

The prefect venue for our wedding
The venue was perfect, the food was prefect, the service on our day was exceptional and leading up our was great as well.
We had used a very inclusive package that allowed a ton of food from cocktail hour straight through dessert and it all tasted good.
The ladies in Banquet Department were very helpful in answering questions and helping us along the way. Overall very good experience. -

Best day ever
Prior to getting engaged,I joked around saying I want to get married at the smithville Inn because they had a French fry bar option. Well this weekend we did just that and you know we had the French fry bar! The team here was amazing,responsive and made sure every detail came to life. One thing I can say is this day exceeded anything I thought I had planned. It truly was a beautiful day and I can't say good enough things about this venue! Everything was on schedule and perfect. Any question or thought I had was addressed through out the process and it was always easy to contact Justine or Erin. It was such an amazing day and it was an absolute dream. If your thinking about booking this venue, do it!! -
