    Our dream wedding!

    From the moment we pulled into Owera's driveway, we knew it was meant to be! Every interaction, decision, and moment afterwards only confirmed that we made the right choice in our wedding venue. We will never stop being grateful for how incredible our coordinator Sarah was and how helpful every single staff member was on our wedding day and every day leading up to it. They helped us with all details, no matter how complex or simple and always made us feel supported and excited. We could not imagine having our wedding anywhere else, and we will forever be grateful for choosing Owera!

    Owera Vineyards Is Your Fairytale Wedding

    We had the dream wedding that every couple hopes for. A mid-September wedding at Owera featured vineyards that were full and beautiful last weekend of summer type weather. The grounds and landscaping are nicely manicured and the venue itself is jaw-dropping.

    Bailey was our venue provided wedding planner and did a great job at helping us navigate the many details that go into the big day, answering all of our questions over the months leading up.

    We got married onsite and had a wonderful experience with the Catholic ceremony. We worked with the parish in Cazenovia and utilized their Deacon for the officiant.

    Cocktail hour was outside and our guests raved about the...

    Love Owera!!

    Everything about Owera was lovely! Our day was perfect, and both Sara and Bailey worked so hard to make sure we got everything we wanted, and that our wedding went off without any hiccups. We worked with Owera closely throughout our almost 2-year engagement, and while there were a couple of times when we had to work even closer on details to ensure that everything was 100% - I can not think of a better group of people to work with. They were flexible and understanding and truly detail-oriented ensuring that everything we envisioned and planned was delivered. The venue is absolutely beautiful, and if I could do everything all over again, I would still go to Owera. Bailey,...

    BEST TEAM & VENUE - cannot recommend Owera enough!!

    Engagement Date: November 25, 2020 (during covid)
    Wedding Date: September 11, 2021 (during height of Delta surge)

    My husband proposed the night before Thanksgiving, Nov 2020. We didn't want a really long engagement, but knew finding a venue for fall 2021 would be nearly impossible with so many 2020 weddings being rescheduled. We looked at four venues and Owera was the only place with a Saturday available (plus, I was going for a rustic + elegant vibe and the barns I saw were too rustic). From how well the grounds were kept to the professional staff to the vineyard/tent setting, it was everything we didn't know we were dreaming of!

    And then, we actually planned and hosted...

    Oh WOW Owera!

    My husband and I are extremely particular people. So much so that Owera was one of at least 13 venues we saw in central New York when we began planning our wedding in 2019 (a fact our officiant so kindly pointed out on our wedding day at Owera). The thoughtful attention to detail we both share made Owera a no brainer for our 10/10/2020 wedding date! Perfect venue, perfect team of event coordinator and staff, PERFECT EVERYTHING!!!!! Then COVID.

    When the time came for us to ultimately decide to postpone our big day Jordan and the rest of the Owera team were extremely accommodating. They picked up our 10/10/2020 plans and put them down on 10/9/2021. We...

    Perfect wedding venue

    We loved having our reception at Owera! Bailey (our wedding coordinator) was so helpful to us throughout the whole process. She made the process so much easier for us and coordinated with all our vendors. The venue was set up and decorated beautifully. We definitely recommend Owera!

    Wonderful Venue!

    I highly recommend Owera Vineyards for your upcoming wedding! My husband and I were married and had our reception there in October 2023 and I cannot imagine a more perfect venue! They are exceptional at helping you through all the planning details to make sure your day is exactly how you dreamed. We had a wonderful experience with Sarah. She helped us every step of the way and made sure that the day went off without a hitch! 10/10 we recommend Owera and would chose them again in a heartbeat!

    The best venue ever

    From the beginning my dream was to be married at Owera. From the beginning Jody was so responsive around setting a tour up. Then we had the pleasure of working with Bailey! She literally pulled the vision together and made everything perfect. She was so responsive along the way and made our day beyond PERFECT! She was at all the right places day off- and even saved my vail before walking down the aisle! The entire Owera team was so wonderful. This will be our forever favorite spot!

    Owera was amazing to work with and they helped make our wedding even better than we ever dreamed was possible. We worked with Bailey for most of it and she was so easy to talk to and amazing!

    The absoulute best wedding venue + staff

    Our wedding at Owera was, without a doubt, the most perfect day. The seamless flow of the day, the stunning setting, and Sarah's expertise came together to create an unforgettable celebration. Our guests were in awe of the venue's beauty, and we received countless compliments about how smoothly the day ran. Sarah's attention to detail was impeccable, making the planning process stress-free and enjoyable. She was there every step of the way, offering advice and expert recommendations. She helped us create a timeline that ensured the day ran smoothly, and she coordinated with all our vendors flawlessly. We couldn't recommend Owera more!

    Beautiful Day!

    My husband and I got married at Owera and we had the most amazing day. The event coordinators and the staff were fantastic. They were so organized and professional. The facility was clean and picturesque. I would high recommend getting married at Owera. It was a dream come true!

    We had our wedding 8-18-18 at Owera. It was pricey, but worth every dollar! The staff is incredibly professional and organized. The coordinator Jordan was outstanding and kept the process as well as day of as stress free as possible! We have no regrets about having our special day at Owera and would highly reccomend to anyone looking for a beautiful romantic vineyard wedding.

    Dawn and her team were amazing! They made our special day so wonderful, they made our Autumn brunch reception one for the books! We didn't have to worry about any details, they took care of everything! The facility was extremely clean and inviting to all our guests, with beautiful scenery. Plenty of room so we didn't feel crowded, able to move around and enjoy our guests. Having the separate bar area from the tables allowed people to leisurely spill out from the tables to enjoy the patio while still being able to listen to the jazz quartet (John Spillett). The exceptional food provided by Julie's Catering was top notch, sending our guests for seconds and thirds! From the welcoming...

    The first time I visited Owera after our engagement, I immediately envisioned marrying my husband there. Kayla helped make that vision a reality. She was an absolute dream to work with during the planning process, and the entire Owera staff the day of our event were incredibly attentive and helpful. Owera is the most stunning venue with an excellent staff, and I would recommend them for any event.

    My wedding at Owera Vineyards was truly the best day ever. I would highly recommend having any event here in the future. My wedding coordinator, Kayla, was the sweetest, kindest, and most helpful person. This meant a lot to me, because most of my family lives out of town, and I was for the most part planning this wedding by myself. It was very important for my family to have the best time, and I heard nothing but good comments regarding the venue, the service, and the food. It is one of the most beautiful places in CNY, which is why I wanted it for our late summer wedding. The wine was amazing, and I've recommended it to several people since visiting the vineyard.

    I had a wedding reception (the ceremony was on an earlier date) at Owera and it was wonderful. The setting is beautiful, of course. Their event tent has a spectacular view all around. The food got a million compliments. They have dealt with all the concerns mentioned in old reviews with the neighbors, so events have to end at 10:00, but that worked fine for us. The best part was working with Dawn, their current event coordinator, who made planning a party for 75 people from across the country so easy. She took care of all the decorating except for centerpieces, which made it super easy for us to coordinate from afar. Every question or concern got a reply...

    AMAZING -- Cannot thank them enough!

    Jordan and her entire crew (Katie, Sam, and others!) were AMAZING! We cannot thank them enough for putting together a wedding weekend that we will never forget. They put together an itinerary and layout that fit our vision perfectly. They were extremely organized and detail oriented, allowing for everything to go off without a hitch. Because of their seamless work behind the scenes, we could enjoy every moment of the day without a worry.

    Never once throughout the planning process or wedding day did we feel like "just another number/wedding." Jordan is extremely kind, friendly, and easy to work with -- she is truly a natural at her job! Everything was personalized, making our guests and us feel...

    Great experience with Bailey & the Owera team

    We had our wedding at Owera on 9/2/23. Originally we met with Sarah and Bailey was later assigned as our coordinator. Both Sarah and Bailey were wonderful, but we worked mostly with Bailey who was so nice, professional, helpful, and really took a lot of the stress out of wedding planning.
    She was so organized and captured every detail of what we needed/wanted, kept our planning on track and followed up with us as needed. Working with her was a great experience.
    The day of was perfectly coordinated, as a bride I didn’t have to worry about anything and was able to enjoy the day. Bailey handled coordination with all our vendors so we just had to...

    I would definitely recommend Owera to anyone planning a wedding. The venue is beautiful and we were especially lucky to be able to have our ceremony there outside as well. The cocktail hour on the patio was perfect and Kayla arranged for the event center to be open during that time in case it got too chilly. The dinner inside the event center was perfect! Kayla and her staff were great at organizing everything! We had no worries and had a wonderful time. All of the staff - especially Kayla - were very friendly and helpful. A big thumbs up to them all!

    We had our reception at Owera (ceremony elsewhere) and could not have been more impressed with the venue! We are so glad that we went with Owera since we were set on using a winery in CNY. They have the best facilities and tent set up that we had found.

    The staff were great and we did not need to interact with them too much as it ran smoothly. The cost was on the high side, but we saved our money elsewhere and thought it was worth it for the venue.

    We aren't sure why there were only two reviews before this (and both of them are poor). But anyone that has been reading the news can see there is clearly a personal squabble between residents over Owera, so who knows who wrote them?

    Many pros and a few cons

    I'm going to be as honest and objective as I can be. Take everything as you will because each experience is definitely different.
    Pros: The venue is beautiful. Without a doubt each part is gorgeous and the weather thankfully held out to make our ceremony and reception fantastic. Even if it hadn't, they provide different back up options. They are a bit pricey but you are getting a lot, in my opinion, for your money. Coordinator, tables, chairs, linens, cleanup, all the things we really didn't want to have to think about, handling was taken care of. Each staff member we interacted with was kind and friendly.
    Cons: Bees and Wasps. This is obviously not something the...

    My husband and I had our wedding at Owera Vineyards in July 2016. The venue is STUNNING. And the coordinators, Dawn and Kayla, the day of coordinators, are beyond fantastic. I have never worked with two people who are more organized and efficient, and this is a big statement coming from a very Type-A personality! We did not have a traditional American wedding -- I am Pakistani and my husband is Indian -- and we wanted to have a traditional wedding on the premises, including the groom arriving on a horse with a procession of his friends and family, off site Indian food being served as opposed to American food, Indian Punjabi DJ, etc. Owera was more than willing...

    The venue is absolutely gorgeous for both wedding ceremony and reception. Nothing needs to be added to make this look beautiful! It is a bit pricey and there are added expenses for each added service. But with linens and all tables and chairs included it was really an easy choice and an amazingly beautiful place to hold our wedding. We got TONS of compliments on how great it all was and how beautiful the grounds and facilities are!
