Fox Hollow Catering, Hotel & Restaurant Reviews

First I need to say any couple that is comparing venues and considering anywhere other than Fox Hollow for their wedding need to PLEASE read this review. It is long, but heartfelt and is a very real example of what to expect from this incredible venue and staff. My husband Joe and I finally got married on 6/30/22 and when we were originally planning our wedding in 2018, we visited 9 different venues with Fox Hollow being the last one. We wished we had gone there first because we would have not had to look any further. The ONLY reason we placed it later on the list was because we just assumed with its stunning beauty and admirable reputation, it would be far out of our budget. However, we were happily surprised with their competitively priced packages which included extra unique things that set them apart from the other venues! As soon as we walked out the door, we knew in our hearts that Fox Hollow was the one.

Overall, they checked every box and offered more than any other venue we visited. I could go on forever about the ambiance, décor, photo opps, delicious food, and the venue’s elegance, but you can see all of that on the website and on your tour. What I want to talk about here is the actual experience –The level of professionalism, attention to detail, friendliness, and attentiveness of their staff blew us away and is something I truly praise them for since I am in sales/customer service myself and know how much hard work it takes.

Before I go into further detail on our experience, I do want to give specific shout-outs to Gennaro, Alicia, Matt, Hilary, Zach, Jake, Nicole, Samir, Noelia, & Mike. You all did more than you will ever know for us and we are forever grateful. The fact that I have to name drop so many of them shows how personalized their service truly is and how much their staff genuinely cares about their clients. I felt like they all became my friends along our 2 year journey - their dedication to making our dreams into a reality was heartwarming.

We were originally supposed to get married June 2020 but the world stopped only a few months before our big day and we had to pick a new date and push everything back. Gennaro handled this for us FLAWLESSLY! I am sure they were overwhelmed dealing with a stampede of upset brides, but he remained calm, sweet, genuine, understanding and he was actively there to problem-solve with me. He rescheduled our date for us two years in a row and instantly diffused any stress we felt each time.

Alicia and Matt were awesome helping me book and rebook the hotel rooms, the afterparty, and the conference room for my girls to get ready. Hilary was super organized when we had the meeting to go through all the final details and quick to respond with any question I sent her way. Zach was our master cocktail creator! My husband and I were having trouble selecting our signature cocktail so we went to Volpe to try out some of our ideas at their bar. We met Zach, who we would have never guessed was on the newer side to bartending. He did such an amazing job tweaking the different recipes and brainstorming with us to land on our perfect delicious cocktail that we specifically requested him to bartend our wedding (which he also did a phenomenal job at!).

The night before the big day, I stayed at the Inn at Fox Hollow and was a ball of nerves. My girlfriend and I hung out at the Volpe bar with two bartenders, Jake and Nicole. They kept me laughing all night, calmed me, and when I told Nicole that Samir was my maitre d, she gave me the most reassuring reaction telling me I was in excellent hands. We had such a good time at the bar, I made them promise to say hi to me the next day and they did!

Samir was our maître d and Noelia was my bridal attendant. The Fox Hollow described to me ahead of time that these two would both be with me for the day and I would not have to worry about anything. I did not understand the magnitude of what that meant until the day of. What they promised me was an understatement. When I tell we were treated like royalty, I could not be more literal. They were both quarterbacking every little thing. Noelia was outside from the very start during photos feeding my whole bridal party finger foods and drinks and getting us anything we needed during our very long day. She helped make sure my dress was bustled perfectly for all the photos. And OMG Samir….he was beyond on top of his game. There were so many things to cram into the timeline, and he was so polite and professional about making sure we stayed on track to fit in all the photos on our list while also enjoying ourselves throughout the entire reception. It was great having him by my side the entire time basically to do all of my thinking for me while we focused on celebrating and being in the moment! He thought of things I did not even know to think of! I always hear stories of things going wrong on people’s wedding day and people are astounded when I tell them I had zero mess-ups. EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT.

And I had the pleasure of working with Mike Mourantonio for some questions I had in the beginning stages as well as after my wedding, and I just want to speak highly of how professionally he handles his business and how pleasant and devoted he is toward his clients. The whole staff is a shining example of going above and beyond.

Fox Hollow as a whole surpassed all expectations with flying colors that we had for a wedding venue and the experience of our wedding day. When it was finally time for bed after the most epic, magical day of my life, I literally started crying. My husband was so concerned at first but then realized I was crying because I was the happiest I have ever felt and in awe of the tremendous experience we just had together with all of our loved ones. My heart continues to burst every time I replay all the special moments through my head. Thank you Fox Hollow for making this all possible, I will ALWAYS tell EVERY couple to choose and trust you for their dream wedding!☺️❤️
