About

STORYBROOK HOLLOW is an enchanting castle wedding venue plucked directly from the pages of a fairytale and brought to life in Albany, New York. This stunning Catskill Mountain location is the brainchild of owner Chad, a self-professed "part engineer, part artist, all dreamer." Chad is precisely the type of person one would expect to work in a castle, so his dreams have already come true. Now it's the turn of his clients.

Facilities and Capacity

Once upon a time, a happy couple and their loved ones entered through an enormous 30-foot wooden door to begin their biggest adventure to date. Enveloped by magic and wonder, the party guests made their way through the gorgeous stonewall interior until they reached the main dining hall. A gigantic 20-foot-tall stone fireplace confronted them once they entered, with centuries-old hand-hewn wood beams overhead helping to prop up several stunning chandeliers. STORYBROOK HOLLOW is named so for a reason, with every inch of the building having its own extraordinary story to tell. The newlywed tale can be retold inside or outside this magical kingdom, with indoor seating accommodating parties of 80 and the outdoor pavilion tent offering space for up to 150.

Services Offered

The on-site STORYBROOK HOLLOW team will work hand in hand with their clients to ensure they have a happily ever after. Wedding packages, including tables, chairs, flatware, glassware, and so much more, are on offer at STORYBROOK HOLLOW. Let them bring the fairytale to life and show that dreams do indeed come true.

The best day ever!

We had our wedding here and I couldn’t possibly go on enough about how INCREDIBLE THIS TEAM IS!!!!!!!!!!!! Chad, the owner, was so patient with me and answered all my questions. The girls on staff let me come and go for impromptu team meetings with my family in the months leading up to it. Diane, the absolute super hero of a manager, worked tirelessly with me in the days prior clarifying all the details and even rearranging all of their furniture the day before and sending me progress updates so that I didn’t have to stress it day of and I could rest easy knowing it was all perfect. The night before they welcomed us all with open arms for a rehearsal walkthrough and put up with us while we all stomped around and acting like fools trying to relearn how to walk. When the time finally came and I was a nervous wreck, they took care of me like we were family. At every single moment, I felt like the top priority for these incredible people. I was brought drinks, I was whisked away when I was overwhelmed, they helped us set everything up, take it all back down, cut and served our cake so we could get back to our day together, even kept their Valentine’s Day decorations up because I remarked back in February that it looked stunning and I’d love to have it be that way for our special day. Their hard work and dedication to what they do made our day seamless. They made the party and it felt like it was being thrown for us by life long friends. I hope you all know how grateful we are and how much we truly appreciate you!!!!!

Magical, and Spooky!

If you are looking for a MAGICAL, unique venue straight out of a fairytale, that will have people saying “HOW did you even find this place?” look no further. Storybrook Hollow is the most STUNNING venue I looked at and its was an immediate yet. It’s right in the mountains, the aesthetic is perfection, every area makes for a perfect photo. The space is generous, since they have both and upstairs and downstairs seating and the bar is absolutely beautiful. I got married here on 10/31/24 and the staff made sure to really do it up! I mean cobwebs, decor, a GIANT headless horseman outside pumpkins EVERYWHERE. I didn’t have to add much to make my Halloween wedding perfection. EVERYONE raved about how stunning it was. Not to mention, Diane and the girls were so helpful, answered ALL of my questions and were kind, efficient and professional! We had a few hiccups the day of the wedding and they really pulled together to make everything work out so a huge shoutout to them. Chad, the owner was also so patient and made sure every concern and question I had was answered. Thank you Storybrook for making my wedding the most perfect day. If you’re on the fence, don’t be. Book it now you won’t be disappointed.
