Brianna Sent on 05/22/2021Perfect COVID Wedding
Perfect! We took months trying to find the perfect venue for our wedding and the main banquet hall was also just remolded! To start, the staff was very accommodating and understanding when it came to planning. Lisa, Christina, Anthony and Rob were wonderful. Lisa and Danny planned several meetings with us to go over any questions, comments or concerns. Anthony helped us with decorations and what fit our idea the best, he was very creative! Christina was very reassuring and at times when we were unsure would also give us incredibly helpful suggestions. The management team works well together! During COVID, we were given updates as they progressed. The staff made sure we had a safe and fun wedding despite the gloom of the pandemic.
Our rehearsal dinner was held here the night before the wedding. They let us go over the details and line ups as many times as we needed. After, we had food and dessert that was delectable! Dan was very helpful with clearing away plates, keeping our drinks refilled and any questions we had.
For our ceremony, we held it in the Terrace room. The windows gave plenty of natural light and the arbor they had was the most gorgeous back drop. From the lanterns they set up for us to the aisle runner, it was all perfect. Though you hardly are focused on the decorations while you're walking up the aisle, it all was magical.
For photos we went to a local area suggested by staff called Glenn Falls Park which was a perfect backdrop and close by! Due to it only being 12 minutes away, the guests had just enough time to eat the delicious hors d'oeuvre served by staff. The staff also set up our cocktail hour guest book and writing prompts for more entertainment exactly how it was requested.
When we first arrived to the banquet for dinner, they had a plate of all of the hot hors d'oeuvres which were phenomenal (especially with how hungry we were after the ceremony and pictures). Dan and Laura helped us get our plates from the buffet to the table so we didn't have to carry it and I could focus on not tripping on my dress. Adam is an expert chef - out of all of the weddings we have been to, this by far was the most appetizing and heavenly meal I had at any of them.
The décor was gorgeous. Everything was arranged as we had planned with them preciously. The lighting on the walls added such a nice touch and glow. The drink station was out of this world. They had several different types of base drinks (lemonade, raspberry tea, soda, etc.) and then add ons (fresh fruit, maraschino cherries, etc.). Not only did it looked elegant, it tasted fantastic.
Anthony set up the photo booth for us! Two strips printed for every session, one for the guest to take home and then one for them to place in the photo album. In the album they then wrote something next to their photo for us. At the end of the night we had another memory to be able to take home with us!
I will forever be grateful for every member of this staff who made our day so wonderful. It was an amazing wedding and we would have missed out if we had gone anywhere else. Thank you all for your amazing work. -

Fairytale Wedding
Our son and his Beautiful wife were married at Classics V Banquet & Conference Center last weekend. They could not have picked a more perfect establishment to have their rehearsal and wedding at! The owners, Danny and Lisa May, and two of their children Anthony and Christina met with them at least 6 times and quickly responded to their many phone calls and emails, to be sure that each and every detail was exactly how they wished, along with so many ideas that were shared by the owners to be sure that it was exactly what they hoped that their dream wedding could be. Their recommendations of other services, like the Bakery for their wedding cake, Limo Service, and DJ for their music were so appreciated and all were fantastic. They had a delicious "Celebration" package for their rehearsal dinner, which included things that are special to the Buffalo Area, like Roast Beef Sliders, Chicken Wings, and pizza, which were all prepared by their youngest son Adam. Complimented by Paula's Donuts and a Beautiful Chocolate Fountain surrounded by Biscotti, mini treats, and an array of fresh fruits. You could clearly see that the May Family has a passion for the service they provide!
The Banquet & Conference Center was remodeled completely in March of 2021 and it was absolutely gorgeous! What impeccable taste from the lobby decor, to the Banquet Hall lighting and beautiful floors!!! It looked Amazing and was the perfect setting for a Fairytale Wedding. They chose to have their ceremony in the Terrace Room with a Beautiful Backdrop placed in the front, surrounded by windows which brought in the perfect amount of light. The Owner Lisa, organized the wedding party and gave the right cue during the whole ceremony for the Groom, Usher's, Bridesmaids, and the Bride and her father, which really put everyone at ease. Anthony, set the whole ceremony with the music as well as to be sure all guests were greeted and everything flowed properly. After the ceremony, we crossed over to the Banquet Hall and entered the Adam David Room for delicious Hors D'oeuvres while the Bride & Groom and wedding party left for pictures.
All of the guests where then seated in the Anthony Daniel and Christina Maria Rooms which were combined together for their Reception, before the wedding party was announced. What a Gorgeous Setup, you could see everyone looking in with Amazement at how Beautiful the Banquet Hall looked with their new Renovations and Sparkling Ultra Modern Chandeliers. Each table was set up so tastefully with pretty candles in water filled glass center pieces surrounded with Ruscus and Gold Chargers. The chairs were wrapped in linens and pretty gold bows. The whole setup looked just stunning!!
The service was fantastic with constant attention and the assortment of entries from the Cesar Salad, Prime Rib, Parmesan Crusted Chicken, Pasta Primavera, and Garlic Smashed Potatoes were so tender and unbelievably delicious and also, all prepared Adam. All of the guests were raving about their dinners, the service, and how beautiful the banquet hall looked. They also had a photo booth for guests to enter, take some fun pictures, that were then placed in a photo album that the family and guests could write down well wishes for the bride and groom.
We were so impressed by the many times Lisa, Anthony, and Christina met with, answered so many questions throughout their entire wedding arrangements, and during the wedding rehearsal, rehearsal party, wedding ceremony, hors d'oeuvres and wedding reception, they were all present to be sure that everything was set up exactly the way they had wanted and was Absolutely Perfect.
What a Beautiful Banquet Hall complimented by Delicious Dining and Fantastic Service, with a promise that we will have many more family weddings, showers, and parties at this fine establishment! They deserve 10 Stars!!! Thank you so much for making their day so Special and Absolutely Perfect!!!!

We had our weeding back in August and it was beyond beautiful thanks to Classic V and their staff! We had some guests that had special diet needs and they went above and beyond for those guests! Everything that I had brought for favors and center pieces were put together just as we asked! They are amazing to work with! Food and prices are just as great!!! -

Ashley Sent on 08/17/2018Overall, we were very please with our choice to have our reception at Classics V. Christina was so very helpful and really knows how to calm a bride with lots of ideas and high anxiety. Her personality is very laid back and so easy to work with, which really put me at ease! Anytime I had questions I just emailed the general email and received a response within a couple hours, which I felt was great and very professional. We had the whole large banquet building ( all three rooms). One of my main concerns was having the buffet tables moved quickly so we could start dancing! I was at a wedding a couple years ago ( at a different place) and the Buffet line took seriously an hour and a half, which doesn't seem terrible until you are the LAST table. So It was a priority that my guests would all be through the line within 40 minutes from starting at the head table, I want us to feel like we are all eating together and Classics made it happen!! I was very happy with our experience with Classics V, if you have the chance work with Christina!
Also when looking at what we spent please keep in mind our original list was 204, 172 responded yes and 156 actually showed. So we paid for 16 people that did not attend so that was almost 1,000 right there.
