    So Excited for our Special Day!

    We are having both our ceremony and reception at the Statler in late 2025 and we have had nothing but a great experience with management thus far! Erin is a rockstar and was extremely thorough with our tour of the event spaces. Additionally, Erin and Hannah answer any question I have within an hour or so which is something I really love. Not to mention The event spaces are extremely beautiful and pictures do not do it justice.

    Great process

    We are extremely happy with our Statler wedding process so far thanks to Angelina and Hannah. They have been welcoming, accommodating and helpful in all aspects. We can’t wait for what is to come and we feel at ease with these two in our corner!

    Awesome service & professionalism

    We are having our ceremony and reception at the Statler in August of 2025. Erin has been nothing short of amazing! She is super responsive, personable, and provided us with more than just a tour. She is very knowledgeable and lets us know we are in good hands. We are very excited about having our special day at the Statler. The space is so beautiful and our experience so far has been great!

    Wonderful experience planning my wedding with at the Statler! They are incredible!

    The Statler is the most beautiful venue I have ever seen, and the employees are just as amazing. Erin has been absolutely incredible. She is kind, funny, attentive, and soo knowledgable. She truly wants every bride to have the best wedding possible. Hannah is also amazing and I can already tell I am going to love them both so much throughout the process of planning my wedding at the Statler. We are constantly amazed at everything they do for their clients and how classy and organized the entire experience has been. Douglas development is doing an amazing job at restoring this beautiful building and maintaining the history that makes it so unique. I cannot wait to get married at the Statler and can relax knowing Erin and Hannah will make sure everything goes perfectly!! It is a dream venue.

    Perfect Wedding Venue

    My Fiance and I booked The Statler for our wedding next year and couldn’t be more excited! It was very important to us to find a venue downtown with a large enough space to accommodate all of our guests while providing a separate cocktail hour and preserved history that would wow anyone. Hannah and Angelina have both been great to work with and have answered all of our questions! I would highly recommend giving the Statler a look when booking any special event.

    Great venue and a great team

    The Statler has been tastefully renovated, leaving the building modernized but retaining its roaring twenties charm. The team (Angelina, Alex, and Hannah) are very responsive and have taken a lot of stress out of the wedding planning process.

    Amazing place!

    We are getting married May 2025 and couldn’t be happier with everything at the Statler. The building is so beautiful and elegant. But the best part is the staff. Everyone we have worked with so far has been so helpful and answered any questions I had to make me feel at ease about our upcoming wedding day. I cannot wait for the day and would highly recommend booking The Statler for any event.

    Kathryn Harlock & Gabriel Romano

    My fiancé and I are having our ceremony and reception at the Statler on November 1, 2024. As soon as we saw the Georgian Room ceremony space, we knew we had found our perfect venue. Angelina from the sales team made booking our wedding so incredibly easy. Hannah & Alex from the events team have been nothing short of amazing! They have been able to accommodate all of our requests, big or small.

    Kufchak Wedding 6.2024

    Our wedding in June 2024 was nothing short of perfection. The care and attention that Alex and her team put into our day was more than we could've asked for. A rainy day ended up being a blessing in disguise as we were able to take photos in the venue before cocktail hour which turned out beautifully.

    We had such peace of mind leading up to our day, knowing how intrinsically beautiful The Statler is and it did not fail to impress. We are feeling very blessed to have hosted such an important day in such an amazing venue - thank you Alex!

    Beautiful and Flexible

    The Statler is beautiful and my dream venue. I originally didn’t think it would be within budget for me and my fiancé but they worked with us to come to several solutions. I feel so blessed to have worked with Erin and for her thoughtfulness. I am counting down the days until our special day, which wouldn’t be possible without the help of Erin.

    Incredible time hosting our Sangeet at the Statler!

    We were able to host our Sangeet, and Indian pre-wedding celebration, at the Statler for 260 guests in April 2024 and it was incredible!!! The Statler team, led by Alex & Hannah, were incredible & easy to work with. They were super communicative, answered our questions quickly, and were open to our ideas in terms of layout and set up. The venue itself is beautiful and really worked well for our decor for our Indian Sangeet night! Our guests had an incredible time - the bartenders worked quickly, the dance floor was big enough for our big dancing crowd, and the entire night went super smoothly. We were so happy to host our Sangeet at the Statler to kick off our wedding weekend and would highly recommend the Statler to anyone looking for a place to host an event!

    Best. Venue. Ever.

    Where to begin? Our daughter and son-in-law had the wedding reception of their dreams at Statler City on May 29, 2021. It was PERFFECT! From cocktail hour in Palm Court to dinner in the Terrace Room to the after party in Lobby Bar, EVERYTHING was elegant, upscale, and simply stunning. Under normal circumstances, planning a wedding can be challenging. In the midst of a global pandemic, “challenging” is an understatement. Our experience was wonderful start to finish. Alex was professional, responsive, and flexible throughout the entire planning process. She was invaluable in helping us navigate the ever-changing COVID state guidelines, and I will be forever grateful for her willingness to listen to our concerns and think outside the box to help us host a memorable event. Thankfully, most virus restrictions were dropped the week before our wedding. I think Alex was as happy to share the news with us as we were to receive it! Finally, if you believe that food is one of the most important elements of a wedding reception, look no further. No matter how beautiful the venue or how entertaining the DJ is, your guests will remember if they enjoyed what they ate. The Statler did not disappoint. The hand-passed appetizers were unique, substantial, and delicious. The filet was melt-in-your-mouth tender, the chicken was cooked to perfection, and everything was HOT! No simple feat when serving 150 guests! Also, the service was impeccable and the staff was polite, attentive, and responsive. Thank you, Statler City, for helping to make our daughter’s wedding day one of the happiest days of our lives! You are truly a historic gem that reflects the heart of Buffalo and THE ideal venue for couples looking to showcase our beautiful city!

    Experience was beyond expectations

    I cannot say enough about Statler City. The staff, Colleen, Tammy, Brooke, Dan were amazing to work with. Colleen really made me feel like a queen!!! Tammy kept everyone organized and moving. Such an amazing experience. We were married in the Mezzanine and had our reception in the Terrace Room. The food was amazing. Our Guests could not believe how good the filet and chicken was. The bartenders were top notch all night. No one waited for a drink, especially the bride and groom. We were treated like royalty. I could not have asked for a better experience. It was beyond my expectations. My guests were definitely impressed!!!

    Best. Venue. Ever.

    I CANNOT say enough about how amazing this place is! Our experience was WONDERFUL from start to finish! Colleen worked with us throughout the planning stages and made everything so easy. Even when I didn't have answers to the questions she asked, she was super flexible and willing to work with me. It was also great to get her input when I wasn't sure about how to organize things. I loved Colleen so much that I was a little nervous when I found out she wouldn't be the one coordinating things the day of, but that Tammy (the general manager I think) and her team would be with us. I had no reason to be nervous though because Tammy and her team (Brooke, our floor captain, catering staff) were AMAZING!!! They knew about all the little details and changes we had communicated to Colleen and made sure things ran soooo smoothly throughout the night.

    We received so many compliments from friends and family on the venue itself (it is BEAUTIFUL!), how smooth everything flowed, and so many compliments on the food! A lot of guests said that was the best food they'd ever had at a wedding!

    Apart from how easy everyone at the Statler makes it for you when planning a wedding, the aesthetics are also an enormous reason why this place is so great! It is just naturally beautiful. We had our ceremony in the Georgian Ballroom which is a gorgeous space. So much so that we didn't need to add much decoration at all. This venue was so worth it! Also, we were able to schedule our wedding during their offseason and on a Friday, which saved us a lot and made this place really affordable for us.

    Absolutely fantastic

    The Statler was the first and only venue we toured and upon our first visit, we *knew* it was the right fit. Startlingly beautiful, grand, full of art deco glamour. We booked immediately and began the planning process.

    From the very beginning, the entire process was smooth sailing. Colleen is a dream to work with - she is prompt, organized, and full of fantastic advice to help guide you along the way. Fast forward to the day of our wedding and wow! What an amazing night! We had our ceremony up in the Georgian Room and the reception down in the Terrace Room. We received SO many compliments on how well organized everything was, how amazing the food was (get the filet!), and how beautiful and grand the venue itself was. Our experience as the bride and groom was also fantastic - Tammy, Brooke, our floor captain, and all Statler staff were attentive to all our needs for the duration of the evening and made sure we were comfortable.

    Honestly, if they are in your budget, go for this venue. The aesthetic value is worth it alone but everything else is also top notch. We had essentially nothing to worry about the entire planning process and could just focus on enjoying ourselves and the wedding itself. It was so so so so worth it!!

    Beautiful and Amazing!

    I would highly recommend Statler City to anyone who is in the search for a wedding venue! We got married in the Golden Ballroom and the venue itself is breathtakingly beautiful... minimal extra detail and decor needs to be added.

    For the most part we worked with Colleen and we don't have enough good things to say about her. She made the entire planning process as easy as could be and she had a true understanding for wedding knowledge and always lead us in the right direction when it came to making decisions. She was always quick to respond and provide us with genuine ideas. She put my mind at ease about so many things and I couldn't be more thankful!

    The day of everything seemed to run as seamless and smooth as possible! We had a strict timeline we wanted to follow and the staff at Statler City and our captain were efficient and trained well enough to have it be followed. We had a 260 person wedding and there was minimal wait time between courses and at the bar which is always a highlight. We received many compliments and praise on how good the food was!

    All in all.... we couldn't be more happy with having chosen Statler City as our wedding venue!

    Best venue & staff ever!

    THE BEST staff ever. Statler was so organized and helpful throughout the entire wedding planning process. We worked with Colleen on everything leading up to the wedding. She is so good at her job and you can tell she truly loves doing it. We got married on a Friday and they have a fantastic deal on prices if you do a Friday. The night-of staff was also amazing. We had the GM, banquet manager, and a captain to help us through the night. They helped the night run so smoothly. The food was out of this world. We did braised short ribs and chicken piccata. I’m still getting calls and texts from friends and family raving about the food! Not to mention, the venue is absolutely gorgeous! If you are looking for a flawless night with a vintage flare, then seriously look no further.

    Couldn't dream of a more perfect wedding

    We got married on September 21st of 2019. We had an amazing experience, our wedding was a dream come true. Colleen and Tammy really pulled everything together and made everything perfect. We had our ceremony and reception at Statler and it was just beyond beautiful. I would recommend them to anyone. The food, staff, and everyone involved were amazing and they make such a perfect team and make your day feel so special. Thank you again to everyone at Statler for doing such an amazing job. We are beyond grateful for the experience we had.

    My wedding at statler city

    I had my wedding here on September 6th 2019 and it was absolutely amazing and perfect! I had fallen in love with the Statler years ago and always knew I wanted my wedding there. The building is absolutely gorgeous. Our wedding was in the terrace room and it could not have turned out better. We worked with Colleen who was so great and helpful the entire time! The staff set up everything so great, when I walked in on my wedding day I could have cried seeing how everything came together so perfectly! The food was amazing and many of my guests said it was the best wedding food they ever had and that they had very friendly servers. Our server was very attentive to us during dinner making sure we had everything we needed. Overall, I could not have asked for more. The statler made our wedding day everything I’ve ever dreamed of and more. If I could do it again I would!

    Statler City was great!

    Our wedding reception at the Statler was absolutely amazing! The service was incredible and everyone loved the food. The reception space is gorgeous. The wedding staff was also very helpful throughout the wedding planning process. We'd recommend the Statler to anybody!
