I absolutely LOVED my experience with RSM! My husband and I worked closely with Heather and Ashley, and both of them are just fantastic. Ashley was there on my wedding day and was super attentive and helpful. The food was amazing, the workers were kind, overall amazing experience!

They were very accommodating and friendly towards all the guests and works very well with the children to make sure that they were comfortable and that the whole event ran smoothly.

We really appreciated everything that they did. The food was incredible and it was the best time ever! If you are looking for a venue, reach out to them!

If stuffy banquet halls or grandiose ball rooms aren't your style, the woodsy magic of Maple Ski Ridge might be a good fit for your wedding day. Nestled at the base of a tiny mountain on the quiet edge of Schenectady, Maple Ski Ridge feels like a secret hideaway but has the convenience of a dozen bars and hotels just ten minutes down the road. The staff was incredible, especially the coordinator, Nick. From catering to our allergy-heavy guest list to helping with set up and break down, the staff is more than happy to accommodate you. While their email response time can be a bit slow, Maple Ski Ridge more than makes up for it with five-star service and their genuine, caring staff.

We met as freshman at Union and it meant so much to us to get married in Memorial Chapel. The building is beautiful, impeccably maintained, and our photos from the day are just gorgeous as a result. The staff at Union in Facilities and the Office of Special Events were fantastic to work with throughout the planning process and on the day of the wedding. They provided tech and set-up support at the rehearsal and on the wedding day everything ran smoothly and functioned without issue. We were married in December and it snowed significantly the morning of our wedding. The Facilities and grounds keepers take such fantastic care of campus sidewalks and roads. Everything was cleared and salted for our guests upon arrival, and the heart of campus looked incredible in the snow. The chapel is certainly not inexpensive to rent. However, I assume some of the cost goes to supporting the upkeep of a historic building. The architecture is so stunning that we were able to save money by minimizing other ceremony decor. Ultimately, we decided the cost was worth it to be married in such a meaningful and beautiful location. We'd make the same decision again in a heartbeat.

The best kept secret of Mazzone’s stable of venues. The reception area is gorgeous with its high ceilings, old bank vaults, and small architectural details. Gabriela and Marc were fantastic from the moment we booked to the end of our wedding day. They made sure everything went smoothly and was exactly what we wanted. Many guests raved about the food (the short rib grilled cheese during cocktail hour is a must!). The cake was absolutely delicious. The location is perfect as well. The Hampton and DoubleTree are within walking distance (Parker Inn was closed at the time of our wedding) and so are so many great restaurants and bars. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue for our ceremony and reception

Oh My God were they great!! We weren't sure they would cater a wedding, but they were beyond thrilled to do it, and their enthusiasm showed. They were attentive and easy to work with, provided amazing service as well as amazing food at the reception and their enthusiasm continued to show the entire time. People raved about the idea of having them, and continued to rave after tasting the food. We couldn't be happier!

My sister was married at MGC in July. Jennifer the events manager was wonderful, adaptable and fun to work with. The event was beautiful - the grounds and view are amazing. Highly recommend the ceremony on the terrace. Remember parasols for your guests because it gets warm in the sun. Event was nicely executed!
