We recently had our wedding at the Tioga Downs Casino & Resort and it was nothing short of amazing. We worked with Alicia & Ben throughout the year long planning process and we could not have done it without them. We were able to enjoy ourselves and have a stress free day because of how attentive and helpful Alicia, Ben and the bar & wait staff were. The food was brought out quickly and was delicious! We have received nothing but compliments from our guests on how beautiful and fun the reception was. We can't thank Tioga Downs enough for such an amazing day!!!
