  Beautiful ceremony at Fenimore Museum

  We had our ceremony at the amphitheater at Fenimore Museum. The lake backdrop was gorgeous and the ceremony went off without a hitch. Jesse Goldfinger was our events coordinator and he did a wonderful job at keeping everything organized and keeping in constant communication with us prior to the big day.

  Great Venue

  So glad we went with this venue. We were able to create our dream wedding. We rented out the church and LCJ Center, but because guests walk to the church they are able to see the entire Farmer's Museum. My wedding coordinator worked with Katie, who did a great job ensuring everything was in order. Katie was able to advise on the best areas for cocktail hour and even make suggestions to streamline our ceremony/reception timeline. I would highly recommend this beautiful venue.

  Fabulous experience at Fenimore Art Museum!

  As locals to Cooperstown, we knew right away we wanted our ceremony on the back patio of the beautiful, historic, Fenimore Art Museum. The lovely building and grounds coupled with the scenic backdrop of Otsego Lake make this a premier ceremony location. A big thank you to Fenimore's Operations Assistant, Katie Cole, who was responsive, professional and delivered a "can-do" attitude while providing exceptional service!

  Beautiful venue with great event coordinator

  We had a wonderful wedding at the Fenimore/Farmer's Museum. The event spaces available are beautiful and the vendors available are easy to work with (particularly Mark who rents their tents & lighting). Our guests loved our cocktail hour at the Carousel. The event coordinator Katie went above and beyond to make sure our day was 0 stress and I am so grateful for all her help. She was flexible, easy to work with, and I do not think our day would've gone as smoothly without her.

  Everything was perfect!

  We had our ceremony in the amphitheater at the Fenimore Museum and we had our reception at the Louis C. Jones Center for the Farmer's Museum. It was most beautiful and elegant setting. Katie, the operations assistant who helped us plan our event, was a pleasure to work with--very responsive and helpful.

  Such a special place!

  Getting married at the Fenimore Art Museum was amazing! Standing under the chuppah, looking out over the lake is a memory I will always treasure. We took our photos down near the Iroquois Hut on the banks of the lake. Breathtaking. The lawn is quiet and secluded, making for an unforgettable wedding. Planning our special day at the Fenimore Art Museum was a breeze because of Anne's easy-going and kind approach. We emailed her with a lot of questions, and she always responded with great suggestions. I would highly recommend getting married at the Fenimore Art Museum.

  Sarah, thank you for the lovely referral! Your wedding celebration came together without a hitch. Every bit of yours' and your mother's planning certainly paid off. The clear tent and furnishings underneath were spectacular! Showcasing your grandmother's artwork and fabulous cows were the icing on the cake. She was surely there in spirit.

  Attention to detail

  When I contacted Anne, she was very thorough, explaining all the options we had and how they could be tailored to our needs. We traveled to the Farmer's Museum and were greeted by Anne, she arranged a tour of the facilities and answered all our questions in detail. We were never rushed. Anne addressed our concerns and assisted us with the coordination of vendors. The event was beautiful and the room was set-up perfectly!

  Maria, thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review. I enjoyed working with as you planned your son's rehearsal dinner. I remember you saying Cooperstown was a special place for him growing up. As I recall, as a child he envisioned getting married in our quaint village, his dream certainly did come true. I hope our paths will cross again!

  Super helpful

  Anne was fabulous to work with! Any little question I had, she would answer as soon as she could. She was great with local vendor recommendations. The day of our wedding had a chance of scattered afternoon showers- she was flexible & willing to accommodate a last minute decision to live the ceremony into the church (rather than outside at the Amphitheater). I have nothing but good things to say about Anne & her helpers. The venue is charming, and your guests are going to have a good time!

  Beautiful and Unique Wedding Venue!

  The Farmer's Museum and Fenimore Art Museum are both wonderful wedding locations.
  
  My husband and I chose to have our ceremony down by the lake at the Fenimore, and our reception up on the terrace. Anne was very accommodating and provided us with many different options which allowed us to customize our wedding and make it very affordable too.
  
  Our guests were blown away by the incredible views of the lake, and they really enjoyed their stay in the quaint village of Cooperstown.
  
  I highly recommend these venues for anyone looking to have a gorgeous and unique wedding at a place that will really impress their guests without breaking the bank!

  Stunning Spring Wedding

  The staff at The Farmers' Museum far exceeded all of our expectations for our April 2019 wedding. Anne worked closely with us throughout the entire process, always open to answering any questions we had. We toured the venue in July of 2018 and quickly decided it was the place for us! We held our ceremony in the beautiful church, cocktail hour at the carousel and our reception in the Louis C. Jones Center. Each building was unique, beautiful, and fit the rustic theme of our wedding. Guests are still commenting on the uniqueness of the venue and how beautifully it all fit together! The carousel was a big hit and brought out the child in everyone. The venue was reasonably priced and we were even able to add extra decor when we wanted for only a small price! We absolutely loved our venue and cannot wait to return for a visit!

  Dream Wedding at Historic Venue

  We had the most wonderful wedding at The Farmer's Museum on September 22, 2018! We knew from the beginning we started planning that we did not want a traditional banquet facility or hotel wedding. We wanted something that really felt special to us, and that reflected our personalities. From the start, when we met their coordinator, Anne, last December, the entire process went so smoothly. Anne treats you like family, is responsive to questions, and truly cares and wants your day to be as wonderful as you do!
  We had a perfect fall day for our wedding. We rented the church for our ceremony, and the carousel for our cocktail hour - which was a HUGE hit with our guests! The Louis C. Jones Center was the perfect setting for our reception. With the beautiful wood columns and twinkle lights on the ceiling, it doesn't take much to turn it into an inviting space! There are so many options when choosing your tables, linens, decorations, etc. They even give you all a list of preferred vendors, so it makes booking your caterer, DJ, etc, a breeze! We wanted a unique wedding venue, one that we and our guests would remember and be excited about, and The Farmer's Museum was perfect! The one thing I am sad about is that it's over! Luckily, we can continue to go to the museum for other events, and we look forward to taking our children there someday, too! It truly is a special and magical place! So many places for beautiful photos, too!

  Dear Kristen,
  Thank you for taking the to write this very thoughtful review. You were such a delight to work with. Your wedding day was a memorable one for me as well.

Here's wishing you the very best as husband and wife. I really look forward to seeing you at Candlelight Evening and future events at The Farmers' Museum. Especially when you visit with one or more of your kids ;)

  The Farmers' Museum was a perfect wedding venue for us! The Cornwall Church was quaint and cute, the Carousel was a great place for cocktail hour and carousel rides, and the Louis C. Jones Center was a perfect setting for the celebration! It was super convenient to have everything there in one location. Anne Tandle was wonderful to work with. She was always available to answer questions and she was there on the day of the wedding to make sure everything went off without a hitch!

  We had both the Fenimore and the Farmers' Museum as a venue and having our wedding there is what made is truly special. The quality of this location is incomparable. Even more important was how amazing working with the venue in general was, Anne made our day something we will never forget - she was attentive, professional, and very easy to work with. I would highly recommend having your wedding day at this location!

  My husband and I chose to have our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour on the terrace at the Fenimore Art Museum and our reception at the Farmers' Museum. Throughout the entire process Anne answered countless emails and met with us a couple of times to go over things. Anne and the staff at the Fenimore Art Museum/Farmer's Museum were accommodating and were so helpful! Despite having some passing showers, the staff worked diligently to ensure that our day came off without a hitch. We cannot thank them all enough for their hard work and attention to detail!

  My husband and I had our wedding ceremony at the Fenimore Museum in August 2017. We loved everything about it! It was a gorgeous setting for our ceremony, and working with Anne was wonderful. She was extremely helpful, accommodating, and helped to ensure we had the best day possible. We held our reception across the street at the Farmer's Museum, which Anne also oversaw. Would absolutely recommend the Fenimore and Farmer's Museum, as well as Anne!

Payment was smooth, all the staff was so helpful and kind, and everyone who attended our wedding still talks about how much fun they had! My husband and I will cherish our day thanks to Anne and her team!

  Had our wedding at the church at the Farmers Museum. All we had to do was show up. Everything was taken care of by Ann. The candelabras were lit which gave a nice touch to our wedding. She even rang the church bell after we were married. The staff was very accommodating in letting us take pics around the farm before and after the wedding. It was the perfect day and the perfect place to get married.

  Had our wedding at the church at the Farmers Museum. All we had to do was show up. Everything was taken care of by Ann. The candelabras were lit which gave a nice touch to our wedding.

  Thank you for for your nice review, Toni! I enjoyed assisting you and George at your wedding ceremony. Wishing you the very best as you travel this new journey together ...Anne

  We had our wedding here at the end of April in 2017. It was everything we could of dreamed of! Before we were engaged we met with Anne (site coordinator) and she was incredibly thoughtful through the whole process. She remembered us on each visit to the museum even before we had set a date! We had our ceremony in the chapel there, our cocktail hour in a tent attached to the Louis C. Jones Center. It was just magical. The vendors they recommend work flawlessly with the venue and there were no issues! It was a truly wonderful experience. If you have your wedding here you won't be disappointed!!

  Thank you, Katie! You and Dan are a special couple destined to be husband & wife. I enjoyed getting to know you both as you planned your wedding celebration. I'll always remember your special day. -Anne Tandle

  My fiance and I could not have found a more perfect venue for our April 2017. We have been making memories together at the Farmers Museum for years now and can't wait to create the biggest memory of all! Anne has been incredible to work with, supportive and accommodating throughout our planning process.

  My husband and I are members at the Farmer's Museum, and we couldn't have imagined getting married anywhere else. Our day was cold and rainy, but it was still perfect. Anne and the staff at the Farmer's Museum were accommodating and were so helpful! Despite having a flood and a fire occur the night before in one of the historic buildings, the staff worked diligently to ensure that our day came off without a hitch. We cannot thank them all enough for their hard work and attention to detail! They even reserved the carousel for us to get wedding pictures! Thank you Anne and all the staff at the Farmer's Museum!!

  The rehearsal dinner for our son's August 2016 wedding was held on the Fenimore Art Museum's grounds. It was a spectacular evening! The whole process was smooth beginning to end due to the wonderful guidance of Ann Tandle, the Art Museum's Event Planner. She is professional, dedicated and definitely made our event stress free!
  The Fenimore Art Museum's grounds and terrace are amazing. The combination of the gorgeous venue and the helpful ways of Ann Tandle made our rehearsal dinner a most memorable event.

  My husband and I got married on July 2, 2016. We rented out the terrace at the Fenimore Art Museum for our cocktail hour and we tented the lawn for our reception. The grounds at the Fenimore are breathtaking - I don't think I will ever forget the look on our guests faces as they walked around the terrace and took in the view of Lake Otsego. Anne Tandle was fabulous to work with and we really enjoyed everything that prepping for our day entailed. We used Mazzone Catering and Rise and Shine Tent Company and I cannot say enough nice things about both of them - our guests raved about the food and they truly catered to every one of our needs.
  
  There are a handful of gorgeous places to get married in Cooperstown, but if you are going for simple, classic, and elegant, The Fenimore Art Museum is your place. Happy planning!!

  This location has so many options, my now husband and I visited about a year before we were planning to get married, we fell in love with the amphitheater! My guests to my wedding felt like they were watching a movie that was how beautiful our wedding was! My reception the dinner and dancing happen across the street at the Farmers Museum and the Louis C Jones center was absolutely gorgeous. Anne Tandle, the events planner for the Fenimore Art Museum and Farmers Museum is absolutely amazing she was my wedding planner this was a destination wedding for both families. She kept me, the bride, very calm and I had the most amazing, absolutely breathtaking, wedding ever!

  We stumbled across a historic and federally protected conservation garden in Cooperstown that we never knew existed. Immediately from there, we decided our ceremony would take place in what we refer to as a glimpse of Heaven! We weren't sure where our reception would be held until it was suggested that we check out the Terrace at the Fenimore Art Museum. That is when we met Anne Tandle, who is responsible for assisting individuals/groups/couples for their special occasions. Immediately upon meeting her, we were sold. The grounds are exceptionally beautiful, but we knew that working with someone was going to either make or break the venue which is a significant part to any wedding.
  
  Immediately upon meeting Anne, she has a welcoming, kind and sensitive spirit about her that is genuinely aimed at providing the ultimate experience for your special day. She has a cooperative spirit, carries herself with professional integrity and was one of the most responsive and communicative people we worked with. She also went above and beyond during crises to ensure that our day was as we envisioned it, even when and if it wasn't technically her "job description." She helped us secure secondary catering after our original catering company illegally backed out six weeks before our wedding and even took appropriate action as necessary to accommodate guests when Mother Nature didn't cooperate on the day of our wedding.
  
  We can't say enough things about the venue, but Anne Tandle is surely someone we'd recommend working with to anyone!
