The Perfect Wedding Venue

Woodcliff is the most beautiful wedding venue in Rochester. The location is prime and you just can't beat the view. The event center is massive and is a blank canvas for your imagination to go wild! The wedding coordinators are top tier and are willing to accommodate and do whatever necessary to ensure that your dream wedding becomes reality. The convenience of having the hotel right there is a great perk! The communication was easy and during a stressful time of wedding planning, this aspect was extremely important. The staff are friendly and treat you with so much kindness. It was worth every single penny!!

Absolutely perfect

We chose to have our wedding reception and ceremony at the Woodcliff hotel and spa to keep everything together and as easy as possible. The entire staff at Woodcliff made our day amazing. Everyone was so nice, helpful and easy to work with. From day 1 when we went to look at the site through check out after our wedding we felt special and well taken care of. You are met with a smiling face every moment you are inside the Woodcliff. We couldnt have asked for a more perfect day and would recommend this venue to anyone!

Perfect Venue for Perfect Wedding

We are so happy that we chose The Woodcliff for our wedding. First, the entire staff was so kind, friendly, and accommodating during not only our reception but also the days leading up to it. Bri is the greatest wedding coordinator we could have hoped for. She was always available to chat and helps us navigate some last minute issues that occured days before the big day. She is thoughtful, reliable, and dependable. We owe our perfect reception to Bri because she made us feel calm and handled all of the little details. This allowed us to focus on each other and our family and friends. Our suite was AMAZING and we were more than comfortable. There aren't enough words to describe our wonderful reception experience with The Woodcliff. If you are looking for great food, beautiful photo locations, reliable/fun staff, elegant reception venue, and a reliable team. Look no further.

30 Room Block

Dan is a new Events Manager at Woodcliff and he was wonderful to deal with. Everyone enjoyed their rooms and I have not heard one complaint or negative opinion. We booked a large suite for the bridal party and it was perfect for getting ready the day of. We were even able to do onsite outsides photos which were amazing. the ceremony and reception were off site so I can not really speak to that. One guest had a wardrobe malfunction and the housekeeping staff literally sewed her into her dress and the hotel shuttle brought her to the wedding. This was so sweet and above and beyond. Our guests utilized the hotel bar as an informormal after party and many enjoyed the Sunday morning brunch.

Howerever before Dan, I would have rated the booking and set up of the room block as 2.5 stars. It was impossible to get ahold of people and if by chance you did there was no follow up. Terrible customer service before Dan, after Dan I did not worry about a thing.

Very happy we used Woodcliff and very happy Dan is working there!

Wonderful!

The Woodcliff provided a wonderful wedding experience for us! From Jenn, Daniel, Tori, Emily, and all the staff throughout our wedding we were treated like royalty! They made sure the day was beautiful and that we had everything we needed. The ballroom was beautiful as was the fall foliage. The suites we stayed in were large enough for our bridal party to get ready in comfortably! Our guests raved about the food, service, and scenery! Thank you Jen and all staff!

From the ceremony, cocktail hour to reception everything was perfect. It is obvious that Jenn enjoys her career and she does her job very well. She ensured every detail was taken care of prior to the wedding day and up to the day of the wedding. She is very organized and keeps a calm demeanor that I found very comforting. We are so pleased that we decided on Woodcliff as our venue. I have also received a lot of compliments above the venue from our guests.

Woodcliff provided a beautiful overlook view for our wedding ceremony and the ballroom was set-up perfectly for fun and mingling! The food was excellent from the salads to the meat/chicken choices and sides. Our wedding cake was one of the best we have ever tasted! Our guests all commented on how great the food and cake were. All the staff were friendly, helpful, and courteous! A special thank you to Jenn, event coordinator, and Joann, banquet manager, for our special day!
You will not be disappointed when choosing Woodcliff for your wedding venue!

Where do we start?! Woodcliff's staff and facilities surpassed any expectation we could have set for our big day's accommodations. Our wedding planner Jenn and banquet manager Emily were always calm, cool, collected, and had big smiles on their faces every time we saw them from our first tour to the actual day. Walking into the ballroom the day of literally brought me to tears. They even stayed up late the night before to tie sashes around chairs at the reception - something I asked of them very last minute. From start to finish, they executed all of our wishes flawlessly, and even provided some excellent suggestions to make the day more special. The morning of, the groomsmen got a complimentary round of golf while the bridesmaids got pampered in the beautiful Salon Elan right on the premises. I could not say enough about the entire staff's expertise in their areas. The bar and banquet staff provided outstanding service, and our guests raved about the food and cake provided by Woodcliff's chefs and bakers. Our ceremony was outside on a pretty hot day. The team did a wonderful job filling and refilling a water station outside for our guests to stay cool before the ceremony began. Everything was set up perfectly as well. Using the ballroom worked out exceptionally well for our reception, people were able to mingle on the patio and even walk down to lookout point for the evening's sunset. Our stay in the suite was perfect as well, we plan to spend many anniversaries at Woodcliff for years to come. This is such an exceptional place and now so special to us, you will not be disappointed with Woodcliff as your wedding venue if this is your choice!
