Awesome Wedding Venue!

After looking around upstate New York for a wedding venue, we found the Lincklaen House and booked a tasting session. We took a tour of the place and loved the aesthetic of the venue and sat down for dinner. We were pretty much already sold at this point as the place checked out and the price was right. The bar for food wasn’t too high - we were hoping it was good. Turns out that the food was really great – and we’re NYC foodies. We don’t say this lightly. With the food being very good, we signed on and put down our deposit, which was extremely fair. Liz was our event coordinator and I have to say, she was incredible. She was hyperresponsive, detail-oriented, and answered all of our questions. She helped us workout the timeline of the day to make sure we were able to do everything we wanted. My wife and I run a creative studio in NYC, so we’re extremely detail-oriented. Liz ran with all our ideas, a few being a bit different/extreme, but she never red-flagged us! A big draw was the hotel booking. We would probably do this differently knowing what we know now, but they let us assign guests to each room. It was a pain on our part, but they followed our plan to the T and this was really appreciated. We had a ton of family traveling from NJ and farther away, so this was important to us. We did the rehearsal dinner there the evening before. It also went very smooth. Food was great as expected! The wedding day went EXTREMELY smoothly. The staff and servers were truly awesome. Everyone I came across was extremely kind and helpful. Liz was there the whole time running around, ensuring everything went according to plan. The wedding day dinner was just like the tasting. You never know, right? Cooking for 2 people vs 90 is a big difference. The steak was incredible! After dinner, we walked around for the first time, everything was setup perfectly - photobooth up and running in a great spot. The bar was great. Truly everything was magical and amazing. I cannot stress enough, Liz was extremely responsive. We have well over 100 emails back and forth within 8 months. We did a few video call meetings as we got closer. I know she communicated with the vendors as well. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Liz and the Lincklaen. You truly made the day perfect. I cannot recommend this venue enough.

Amazing Venue!

We absolutely loved having our wedding at Lincklaen House! Carrie was so wonderful to work with and made the entire planning process so easy. The venue is beautiful and the food was delicious. We couldn't believe how much we got for the value too! I would highly recommend this venue for weddings or really any other event you're looking to host!

Perfect Experience

We had a perfect experience hosting our ceremony and reception at LH. I could not have imagined a better location.

First of all, Carrie was outstanding during the planning process. Wedding planning can be stressful and LH made everything so easy. I don't think they said no to any of our special requests and always got back to us immediately, even when our wedding was a year and a half away.

The pricing is very fair and transparent. I kept expecting a catch or hidden fee and there were none. I'm honestly still shocked at how low the final price was, especially for such amazing venue.

They went above and beyond to take care of so many last minute emergencies and issues. We originally planned to only have our reception there, but our ceremony location didn't have AC and the temperature was looking to be in the mid 90s that weekend. I called Carrie with less than 36 hours notice to ask about moving the ceremony to LH and her immediate response was "Of course, not a problem."

We basically showed up the day before with a bunch of boxes and they took care of the rest. I'm a Type A over-planner, but felt comfortable letting them handle everything and we had a wonderful, low-stress wedding.

It's a beautiful venue that doesn't need decorations and has a lot of good photo opportunities. Our guests loved the food and open bar and we got a lot of compliments on it. It was wonderful having everything in one place and not having to coordinate different vendors or arrange transportation between a hotel, ceremony, and reception (or even the salon across the street).

If you're looking for a beautiful, low-stress experience, you should absolutely book LH!
