    Wonderful Venue

    We had our wedding recently on 1.19.19. The staff were amazing! Chef Jesse is attentive to everyone's dietary needs. The food was served on time and delicious! The cake was the best and exactly what we wantes. Karen was an amazing coordinator from start to finish! Her communication with me was excellent. She went above and beyond to make sure all of our details were perfect for our wedding day! I highly recommend this venue.

    Stonegate was the perfect venue for us. We originally weren't looking for a large banquet hall, but Stonegate won us over with their great wedding package, beautiful facilities and incredible service. Maureen assisted us throughout the planning process and was so accommodating for all of our "special" additions to make our day personal for us. We felt so cared for and we were able to really enjoy our day because Maureen and the team at Stonegate took care of every detail that day. Thank you!

    We just had our wedding in The Stonegate and the experience went beyond our expectation, it was really amazing. Janet Lobo is a heaven sent to us, she took good care of our planning process, she was vey accomodating and supportive. Weeks before our wedding, we stil did not have our DJ and she referred Scott to us who also did an amazing job emceiing our wedding reception. Janet went above and beyond in helping us in our wedding planning. Everything we had experienced in Stonegate from the food, accomodation and the staff, they were just really amazing. Thank You Janet and Stonegate!!!!!

My guests were very complimentary from start to finish! A classy group of people! A+, you can't go wrong here!

    We were overly pleased with how our wedding went at the Stonegate! Our wedding planner Janet Lobo, who works for Stonegate, went above and beyond to make our wedding flawless! Everything was beautiful and she was able to take a lot of the stress off my plate. The food is to die for! All my guests couldn't stop raving about the food! The staff continued to check on me (the bride) and the groom to make sure everything was going off perfectly! We would highly recommend this venue! Amazing place for a wedding!

    I want to thank Beth at The Stonegate and everyone else involved on the team on my husband's and my wedding night (Brendan as our banquet captain and all the wonderful waitstaff/bartenders/etc.) who made this night go off better than I ever could've expected!

    There were so many stressful pieces to our wedding the day before and morning of, but once we arrived at The Stonegate everything went off without a hitch! The decor was setup exactly as we had pictured it and talked about it, the cake was beautiful, and all the food was exactly as discussed/imagined.

    The venue itself is wonderful and we received many compliments from our guests about both the setting and the customer service from everyone working there that night.

    If I am ever in need of a venue for any reason in the future I will definitely look to the Stonegate first, as they were so focused no customer satisfaction, and were there to help along every step of the way.

    Thank you all again for the wonderful night! :)

    We had our wedding at Stonegate in July, and from start to finish, everything surpassed our expectations. Our wedding coordinator, Janet Lobo, is the sweetest and most helpful person we have encountered in this industry. She was extremely helpful and accomadating, and practically became a part of the family throughout this entire wedding process. Our event came out perfect, and the entire Stonegate staff worked so hard to make my vision come to life. They even added extra accommodations to ensure my family was happy. Service was amazing, everything was well organized.
    The location alone is amazing. We didn’t have to look for a place to take our wedding photo shoot because the scenery surrounding Stonegate itself was beautiful. My guests did not have a hard time finding the venue since it is located right off the highway. There is a cute fountain that is a great place to take group pictures. There’s even a balcony guests can stroll across while waiting for the event to start. My family and I were relaxed, and everyone was actually able to enjoy the event because all the staff members had everything under control. Janet was even kind enough to check on me and my family throughout the event to see if we needed anything.
    Janet and the rest of the staff truly went above and beyond to make our night perfect, and we are forever grateful for everything they have done for us.

    I was married April 2 and had my reception in the Lakeside Pavilion at the Stonegate. The wonderful experience that I had at Stonegate began with the consultation. Beth Beringer was amazing from the beginning, with such a great attitude and a willingness to work with me. There were NO hidden fees ever with Stonegate, everything was laid out for me in plain English. The tasting was so much fun. There are no other places that have you go into the kitchen with the chef and watch him cook all your food choices and sides and then let you eat them (you are allowed 6 people total at your tasting). Chef Jesse is a blast, so enthusiastic and so talented. We didn't get to try any of the appetizers, but that honestly wasn't a big deal, they turned out delicious just like all the food. I didn't want any of the second course options that were on the menu and they were so flexible helping me decide what to have instead. The up lighting was beautiful, the linens were perfect, and they set up all my decorations so beautifully. The cake was incredible and tasted wonderful. I asked the pastry chef to decorate a design "inspired" by the beading on my dress and gave them a picture of the dress and the design was impeccable. We danced the night away in the amazing Pavilion and they didn't force us out at the end of the night, letting everyone trickle out and make sure that we had everything. I would highly recommend Stonegate for your wedding, you will not regret that choice.

    I recently had my daughter's bridal shower at Stonegate Banquets. The staff and meeting planner, Janet Lobo, surpassed my expectations. Janet was patient as I worked through some unexpected issues, and came through for me. The food was absolutely delicious, as was the cake and the sweets. The atmosphere was fresh and lovely, and all my guests, and bride- and groom-to-be were very impressed! I will look to Stonegate for any future events.

    Thanks, Stonegate!

We received so many complments from our family and friends of what a wonderful place Stonegate is and how amazing the food was.

    Stonegate was an amazing place to hold our reception! We had a fall wedding and the cozy fireplace and chandeliers with leaves on them lent the perfect backdrop to our fall themed wedding! They could not have been easier to work with! They were friendly, helpful and flexible. Our reception was amazing and we were extremely happy with the level of service and attention they gave our wedding. Not to mention, the food was AMAZING! Not your typical wedding reception dried out chicken. People kept coming up to me and telling me how much they loved the food and cake. We had an amazing time with Stonegate and would highly recommend them!

    (We did not use them for our ceremony, so I can't say anything about that...but the reception was perfection!)

    I have nothing but praise for Stonegate, absolutely loved this venue! Not a single flaw to my daughter and son in-law day, they gave them the memorable wedding that they had hoped and dreamed for!
    We worked with Janet Lobo she was absolutely professional and AMAZING! Janet Lobo treated us like family and was incredibly accommodating always on top of everything making sure we were getting everything we wanted from day one until the day of, she made sure everything was exactly as we had wanted she went above and beyond in all regards.
    All of our guests were raving about how delicious the food was and there was plenty of it! Needless to say, everyone left very satisfied and with a smile.
    It was a great experience not only with Janet but, also with the chef at the complimentary tasting where we watched him cook.
    I would definitely recommend this venue for its great service, decor and incredible food! Overall, Stonegate is excellent value for your money. You are not going to get the same amenities or service anywhere else you go.

    Thank you Stonegate & Janet Lobo!!!!

    I would give 10 stars if I could. We worked with Janet Lobo who treated us like family and was incredibly accommodating. See full review by Cali W. on yelp.com(limited characters here). We had a complimentary tasting where we watched the chef cook. We all decided on horseradish chicken, except my dad who wanted prosciutto stuffed chicken. The chef and Janet made accommodations to serve prosciutto stuffed chicken to my dad specially. We were all very touched by this kind gesture! It goes to show that they truly do care about EVERY person. Only venue that charges separately for chicken/ salmon/ steak, instead of charging every plate based on highest cost. Huge plus. Everything was delicious. Janet went out of her way to try to help us with our offsite ceremony at another local venue. She tried to get them to change our ceremony time so it would work better with our reception and made many calls that she didn't need to. She upgraded our backdrop and added columns for the flowers near our sweetheart table. Everything went together so nicely. I have nothing but praise for Stonegate. Not a single flaw to our day, and they gave us the memorable wedding that we had hoped and dreamed for! Thank you Stonegate & Janet Lobo!!!!

    THANK YOU Stonegate and especially Janet for helping me have the wedding of my dreams! This is not an exaggeration - everything about the day was absolutely perfect and Stonegate helped make this all possible.

    We used both the Pavillion and the Reception for wedding events and both spaces are absolutely beautiful. The food is wonderful and most importantly is truly restaurant quality, even when served simultaneously to 350 guests. You and your guests will not be eating cold food which is a huge pet peeve of mine at weddings. The pastry chef is world-class and creates a beautiful and delicious cake.

    Janet Lobo is the best wedding coordinator you can ask for. She was so professional, creative and all-around caring. She was on top of everything and was so flexible in making sure we were getting everything we wanted but staying within our budget. Janet went above and beyond in all regards.

    Overall, Stonegate is excellent value for your money. You are not going to get the same amenities or service anywhere else you go.

    I cannot recommend Stonegate and Janet Lobo enough! Thank you for a wonderful wedding!

    My husband and I used this location for our Wedding Reception. Beth was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was there throughout the event looking over every detail to make sure things ran smooth and her knowledge about the industry was exceptional. Beth also took on a lot of tasks that other similar vendors don't provide, such as storing the leftover food overnight to be picked up by us the next morning. It might not seem like much but it made a world of a difference as the wedding party didn't have to deal with taking food home after a very hectic and long day of planning and attending to guests. Oh and the dessert was exceptional!!! The cake was served with gelato ice cream and the best part was that every guest got a taste of it and enjoyed it thoroughly! It was definitely a hit! A rating of 5/5 is an understatement if you are dealing with Beth!!

    The Stonegate was the perfect location for our wedding! They did a wonderful job with the planning and execution of all of our wishes. The food was AMAZING and the decor was just how we wanted it. Beth Beringer was our assistant and she was OUSTANDING! She went over every detail with us and was extremely patient, organized and professional. I would recomment this venue to my family and friends for any big event! Very, very pleased.
