I cannot go on about how great Emma (owner) and her staff are. Emma started helping us from day 1 (a year before our wedding) with everything we needed (Florist, Baker, DJ (DJ was booked unfortunately, who to contact for a marriage license, etc.) We were given discounts on rooms for who ever was coming for the wedding, so family/Friends started to arrive Thursday. Friday we had our rehearsal and dinner with the wedding party. All our other friends enjoyed a great meal at the bar while playing trivia and doing karaoke. The next day, (day of the wedding) all our guests were met with smiles by Emma's staff. All the decorating done, and the venue looked absolutely beautiful. I highly recommend the Shamrock House for any of your future events. Everyone had rooms they loved. Emma's staff set us up in the back for a bonfire. Friends in that stayed in the house to the left were able to sit on their porch and order pizza (it was an early wedding). I could go on and on, but the main point is. The shamrock House in East Durham NY is the greatest for any event. Jeanne P.S. As I went to attach photos, I forgot to mention the beautiful back ground for out door photos.

My husband and I got married on October 3, 2015 and had our reception at the Shamrock House. The reception was incredible. Larry & Emma went out of their way to exceed all of our expectations. From the very beginning of planning, they were attentive, helpful and always available. Their attention to detail throughout the whole process was overwhelming and so appreciated. The day of the reception everything was so organized and went so smoothly. The food was incredible and the portions were generous. The bartenders and the servers were so friendly and great. We had a lot of people from out of town, and some local people (including ourselves) that stayed overnight. The rooms were nice, clean and affordable. The Shamrock House served breakfast in the morning that was delicious and the perfect way to end our wedding weekend and say goodbye to our family and friends. We had the best experience and we couldn't have asked for anything more. Our friends and family still tell us what a great time they had and what a great place the Shamrock House is.

My husband and I had our wedding reception at the Shamrock House in October of 2014. We could not have asked for a better experience, the owners worked with us and were very flexible in everything we wanted. Our guests enjoyed the food and beverages, as we all danced the night away, having a blast! My husband and I were very pleased with the overall experience and price of our wedding, and feel like we could not have asked for anything better! We would definitely recommend the Shamrock House to others for an awesome wedding reception! Thank you to Larry and Emma, as well as John and Suzanne for helping us to ensure an enjoyable wedding reception!
