11/10 venue!

The Briarcliff Manor MADE my wedding! My guests came back saying it was the best wedding they'd been to and I highly doubt it would have been that way without their incredible staff, beautiful venue, and great food! I also notably had a few crises throughout the day (by no fault of theirs or any of my other vendors) and they handled these issues with care and grace and made it so that none of my guests recognized an issue. Particularly big shout out to Kelsey, who was extremely transparent and helped us with everything big or small throughout the planning process (also a huge help on the day of); Perry, the owner, who helped with many of the bigger things along the way as well and was lovely on the day of; and Jen, the bridal attendant, who I only met for the first time on the day of, but truly proved to be my savior when things went wrong! Also highly recommend hiring Vincenza to do decor as our chuppah was even better than I imagined it being. Overall, I am absolutely thrilled with Briarcliff and would highly recommend them as a venue. They made a day that could have been really difficult into a dream come true and I could not imagine getting married anywhere else!

Perfect Wedding

Alex, our bridal attendant, was absolutely amazing. She paid close attention to every detail and guided me throughout the entire day. Everything went smoothly from the second we stepped into the venue. We were able to stay within our budget, and everything was perfect. We are so impressed and grateful to have had our wedding at The Briarcliff Manor.

Great Venue!

The Briarcliff Manor allowed for our wedding and lead up to the day one of the most amazing times in our lives! Kelsey allowed the process of planning to be seamless, answering any questions we emailed quickly and giving appreciated feedback on any decisions we were unsure about. Alex, the bridal attendant, was attentive to our needs the day of and solved issues even before they occurred. The atmosphere was perfect, and the guests complimented the venue and service not only throughout the night but in the days and weeks that followed. My family and friends are still talking about the food! Kelsey and Alex also made sure that my husband and I had time to relax, reflect and enjoy the day as a couple, providing cocktail hour food in the bridal suite as guests were heading to the reception. This allowed us to be present with our guests and also enjoy the menu we curated. The icing on the cake was Manor itself, the photographs capturing the beauty of the estate are some of my favorites.

Wedding at the Briarcliff Manor

We hosted our Halloween wedding at the Briarcliff Manor and so many guests complimented the venue! The whole Briarcliff Manor team is easy to work with, the food is great, and the ceremony space is beautiful. So happy we decided to celebrate our special day here!

Wedding of our dreams in Westchester!

We got married at The Briarcliff Manor this September, and the day was everything we dreamed of and more! Kelsey and the entire Briarcliff Manor team were incredible to work with—always available to answer our questions and offer support leading up to the big day. We felt so well taken care of throughout the entire planning process, and that continued on our wedding day. Kelsey, Jen, and the rest of the team went above and beyond to make us feel special and completely stress-free, allowing us to truly enjoy every moment.

Our guests had nothing but wonderful things to say—from the cocktail hour food, to dinner, to our signature drinks, everyone LOVED the food and drinks. We would highly recommend The Briarcliff Manor to any couple looking for a stunning and unique venue in Westchester County. The views from the ceremony space are breathtaking, and the Manor’s timeless architecture made for incredible photos.

For couples planning to get married here, we would recommend using an outside planner or day-of coordinator rather than the recommended vendor (Emily King). Unfortunately, our experience with this vendor was not great, and the level of service provided by Emily did not match the otherwise top-tier Briarcliff Manor experience.

Thank you again to Kelsey, Perry, and the entire Briarcliff Manor team for making our wedding one of the best days of our lives. We’ll cherish the memories we made with our family and friends at your beautiful venue forever.

The wedding of our dreams

We couldn’t be more grateful to The Briarcliff Manor for making our wedding day so special. From the very beginning, the team was attentive, professional, and incredibly thoughtful. Every detail—big and small—was handled with such care, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing we were in good hands.

We are so thankful for their kindness, organization, and dedication. Our wedding was everything we hoped it would be, and that wouldn’t have been possible without two special and sweet ladies, Kelsey and Stephanie. Lastly, we also want to thank Vincenza for the beautiful decoration and flower arrangements. Highly recommend to any couple looking for a beautiful space with people who genuinely care.

Seamless, beautiful wedding at the Briarcliff!

The Briarcliff team was super professional throughout the whole process - shoutout to Kelsey, Stephanie, and Alex for really going above and beyond to help us answer questions, stay on track, and coordinate our wedding! The wedding day itself went so smoothly and they thought of all the little details that can be easily missed by people planning their own wedding. Stephanie even cleaned off a huge patch of dirt from my wedding dress, and it looked like it never got stained!

One note for future couples, some guests might forget the address and just put Briarcliff Manor in their navigator, which doesn't bring them to the right place. Would recommend emphasizing the actual venue address wherever you can.

Beautiful venue, great food, and excellent service

We were absolutely blown away by our experience at The Briarcliff Manor on our wedding day! The food, service, and setting are all incredible, and multiple guests reached out to us afterwards to say that this was the best food and service at a wedding they've been to. Kelsey and Stephanie were super helpful throughout the planning process, and Bella and the day-of team took care of everything so we could really be in the moment and enjoy the celebration. They made us feel so special and we truly can't recommend them enough!

Wonderful wedding venue / superb staff

Choosing The Briarcliff Manor was one of the best decisions we made for our big gay wedding! They were so helpful, organized and attentive. They really have the art of weddings down to a science. They think of things that we never would have thought about. At the same time, they don’t feel like a factory; everything has a personal touch and they take great care of their clients.
The in-house food for our wedding was a rave and a highlight for many of our guests. The staff kept the drinks and food flowing all night and accommodated our special requests with ease.
There are some noise ordinance rules that they have to follow for any outdoor portions of their events. Amplified live music during the ceremony was not possible. Additionally, only certain instruments are allowed. Despite this limitation, they were able to help us come up with a solution and still made our ceremony very special.
We were lucky enough to have good weather for our outdoor wedding ceremony on the lawn. The views of the Hudson River were breathtaking.
Our event coordinator, Kelsey, did a wonderful job helping us plan everything. She was super organized. We knew we were in good hands with her. Stephanie, also, was a great communicator, helping to answer our questions over email quickly and efficiently. On the day of, Jen was our bridal attendant. She took the best care of us and really allowed us to enjoy our day without a single worry.
Everything about our wedding was beautiful — the decor (provided in-house by Vincenza), the food and the atmosphere. If you’re looking for a one-stop shop for all things WEDDING, book The Briarcliff Manor for your special day!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
