Wedding Venues in Buffalo

The wild flowers with the sunflower combo make the perfect back splash for beautiful wedding pictures. The pond and the gazebo make beautiful spaces for pictures as well. We had a wedding with 80 guest and still had so much room for the dance floor as well as appetizer/food tables (if doing a buffet style). The small bar area is nice if a bartender is on sight as well.

Everything about Ravenwood was exceptional. We really enjoyed their group tasting event for all 2025 couples in January. It was a great way to sample so many of their dishes but also to see the room decorated in multiple styles to help get a better visual of how a wedding would look in that space. They also have plenty of table decor options to choose from already on site (candle votives, table numbers, miscellaneous boxes). The outdoor patio is always well kept with the most beautiful flowers and the ballroom looked perfect with our pre-planned set-up. On the day of the wedding, the hand-passed appetizers were a huge hit (buffalo chicken wontons, coconut shrimp, sausage stuffed mushrooms). The entrees came out very quickly and were all served at perfect temperature per our guests. They were able to make modifications very easily for our guests with dietary restrictions. The bar staff were so friendly and took care of guests quickly, resulting in there rarely being a line at the bar. Bridgette deserves her own review for just how incredible she is at her job. From the beginning she had excellent communication and was flexible with our meetings, given we were planning out of state. She provided helpful insight during our initial planning meeting for room layout options, wedding timeline, and other things to think about during the early planning phases (personalized decor, photo booth, etc). She is extremely organized and provided us with our own detailed organizer to fill out to stay on track with all of the different planning phases. During our final meeting, I had come with a list of questions to discuss. By the end of running through her list, Bridgette had answered all the questions before I even asked - she truly thinks of everything! On the wedding day, she arrived at the venue the same time as the bridal party to start setting up. Throughout the night, she coordinated with the other vendors seamlessly to ensure we remained on time. She was very thoughtful to check in throughout the night just to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. She was such a pleasure to work with!

Everything was exceptional from the 1st phone call, to meeting with our event specialist, leading up to our event date. The package we chose had many options to create the perfect combination for the menu we wanted. Our event was the 1st of its kind for Salvatore's, a Surprise Birthday party, turned Surprise Wedding! Our event specialist Jess K., was so thrilled to be part of planning our event, and the ideas we had. Everything was perfect! Jess went above and beyond to make our crazy idea into the most perfect day we could have ever imagined. No ask was to small.

My wedding day was perfect and everything I dreamed it would be. Laura did a wonderful job as a wedding coordinator. She was very professional, friendly, helpful and quick to respond. I would highly recommend this venue.

From the second we walked through the door, me and my husband knew that “this was it”. We had toured 6-7 venues before we saw Samuel’s and once we walked in, we never looked back. The Venue was so easy to work with! They were willing to try and accommodate everything, there was no question or idea that was off limits. Other Venues had answered our ideas with way too many “no’s”/“no you can’t do that”/“no we can’t do that”. Samuels was always willing to work with us to make our dream wedding come true. The staff we worked with was also awesome. Mark- has a passion for making your wedding day great and he KNOWS how to host a good party, he’s been doing it for a very long time. The food was amazing!!! We were a little worried since they didn’t do a food tasting but they told us they knew what they were doing and their food was good. Yes, they do know what they’re doing and yes, the food for 235 people was phenomenal. The pricing was very straight forward, they don’t “nickel and dime” you. Even their cheapest packages have all the things that you would pay extra for at other venues. It also made things much easier that they supply food and bar, so that’s not an extra stress to coordinate for your wedding day. I loved it so much, I hope to one day attend somebody else’s wedding at Samuel’s so that I can “live it again”. We have no regrets at all!

Thank you so much to RMSC for the wedding of our dreams! And shout out to Danielle for keeping a tight ship sailing on! Many of our guests have reached out to let us know it was the best wedding they've ever been to and we are honored! Ceremony in the planetarium was a dream come true and cocktail hour/reception in the museum was icing on the cake.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Marygold Manor. From start to finish, Jeremy went above and beyond and made sure that everything exceeded our expectations. Bills Mafia Package: As proud members of Bills Mafia, we were thrilled with the special package offered. It captured the spirit of Buffalo perfectly and added a unique touch to our celebration. Food & Drinks: The menu was outstanding! Every dish was flavorful, beautifully presented, and the drinks kept flowing all night. Guests are still raving about how delicious everything was. Owner’s Dedication: Jeremy, the owner, was in constant contact with us throughout the planning process. His attention to detail was unmatched; he went over even the smallest aspects to make sure everything was perfect. That level of care made us feel completely at ease. Music & Atmosphere: The music kept the energy high all evening. The dance floor was packed, and the vibe was electric — exactly what we wanted for our party. Photography: Bruce, the photographer, went above and beyond. He captured every moment, making sure each shot truly counted. Looking back at the photos, we can relive the joy of the night all over again. Overall, Marygold Manor delivered an unforgettable experience. Between the Bills Mafia package, incredible food and drinks, Jeremy’s dedication, lively music, and Bruce’s phenomenal photography, our event was nothing short of spectacular. We highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to host a celebration that people will remember for years to come.

It was a wonderful experience! Rosemarie was absolutely wonderful to work with, and she took care of every detail! The only reason I’m not giving this five stars is that we had a bit of a hiccup with the weather and weren’t sure if we could have the wedding in the courtyard, but then we decided to chance it anyways and it was the wedding of our dreams! I would definitely recommend this hotel for weddings!

Every detail of our wedding was truly perfect. We always knew Ventosa was beautiful but our initial walk through really sealed the deal when we heard all that you had to offer – the day-of coordination & setup, the in-house catering with delicious food, the accommodations of all allergies all had us excited to book. I have to say, Ventosa was so easy to deal with from our first visit right through our pickup of our cake and décor. Jackie Pollino was incredibly patient, responsive, accommodating and sweet. She had great recommendations and was thinking ahead for me when I was in a whirlwind the day of. I completely forgot to fill the wine vessel for our wine mixing ceremony, and I specifically told her I planned to do it myself. Then, I got busy and forgot to set any of it up. She caught that I missed it and took care of it immediately. My mistake could have ruined my ceremony but she saved the day. Every staff member made it their mission to set up my décor to my exact specifications, taking care with all the delicate pieces and everything was even packed back up so neatly and protected after, too. The mansion next door - RENT IT! You will be so glad your bridal suite is steps away from your ceremony site. A bridal party's dream - many spacious bathrooms, plenty of natural light, easy parking and entry for your vendors. This impeccably maintained, historic and opulent home made for absolutely stunning photos, and our rehearsal dinner went beautifully here, too. The view of the vines and lake is like no other on Seneca. Staff helped us select the right tent to have brought in for the deck and were accommodating of an early delivery. The ability to get ready right on property made everything so easy for us and our guests. Having to travel would have eaten up precious time that morning. Your bartenders did an amazing job of keeping the party flowing and lines short while being sure not to let things get out of control. That is not easy in a crowd of 130 or more. All food was delicious, hot and cooked to perfection. We got a ton of compliments from guests about the quality, taste and presentation. Their food is simple and classic - they are brilliant at the basics, but elevated. Staff made sure my husband and I had an abundance of appetizers and drinks available right at our sweetheart table so we could enjoy the night and socialize vs. waiting in line, or even worse, going hungry on our big day. It was such a sweet touch for staff to pack up a few containers of my “late night bites” garbage plates for us to snack on later that night. My cake was also expertly wrapped and protected so I could get it home safely to freeze. Serving wine made from their own vineyard, and their signature Tuscan decor, gave the place a unique and boutique feel - you won't feel like you're in a cookie cutter, rinse and repeat venue like some reception halls. Staff even helped me fill out my marriage certificate which I nearly forgot to do. We quite literally could not have asked for more from this venue and team. They thought of it all and made it happen, most of the time without even being asked. 10/10 experience. Booking a wedding can be high stress and is a significant investment. Looking back, we would choose Ventosa over and over again.
