09.23.23 wedding
The Falconwood at Beaver Island was the first wedding venue we looked at. We met with Tammy and discussed everything, she answered all of our questions. We toured what felt like a ton of other venues but nowhere compared to the Falconwood and Tammys excellent communication. This followed all the way through our 2.5 year engagement leading up to our wedding day. Everything was perfect, from set up, to food, to clean up! Allison, our main bartender, ensured our plan for specialty drinks was executed, Sydney the Co-Captain of the wedding night ensured service flowed smoothly. Since we originally toured, the venue has had some updates, beautiful new chairs, and new shades for the outside patio! Having a fall wedding near the water could have been tricky but with the shades closed it kept a lot of the wind out! As anyone may say, we had a perfect day and couldn’t have done with out the Falconwood team!The Falconwood at Beaver Island was the first wedding venue we looked at.

Love this venue, did not disappoint!!!
I am very happy and please that we had chose this venue for Our wedding! They did such an amazing job. The employees were amazing, very friendly and professional. Nothing went wrong at all , no guests complained about anything! The food was great 👍🏻 I have 5 kids and towards the end of the night while dancing was going on, couple of my kids got tired and a few employees got some chair pillows handy and laid them down for them to be comfortable! They were so great and if I could. I’d choose them all over again!! Thank you for an amazing experience!! 🤗I am very happy and please that we had chose this venue for Our wedding!

I True Fairytale!
Tammy made the whole process so easy and stress free from the start! She was very responsive to emails and answered all of our questions as they came. She truly made our vision come to life! The food is absolutely amazing and the team serving the meal was so polite and on top of everything. We were basically right on time with our timeline the whole day because everyone there was just so on top of it all. I did not have a single issue or anything that came up that I had to address. I can honestly say there is not a single thing that went wrong and I give a lot of that credit to the team at the Falconwood! They truly are an amazing place that will make your wedding a fairytale. Our guests cannot stop talking about it already because everyone had such an amazing experience.Tammy made the whole process so easy and stress free from the start!

Excellent Service, Beautiful Venue
Our daughter & son-in-law chose the Falconwood for their wedding reception. Cocktails were inside and the dinner and dancing were on the terrace. The food was very good. The staff could not have been better. 5 stars!

They made everything so easy
Going into this process I was told by family members that the reception would be a fun party for friends and family and that the bride and groom don't really have all the fun, well we had the time of our lives. The Falconwood staff made our reception everything we could have hoped for. They were always very attentive to our needs bringing us water and drinks when we needed them. We have gotten many compliments on the food and the choices the guests had. A few days before the weather turned cold and they were right there offering us heaters to make it comfortable for an outside dinner. The whole process was nice and easy. I highly recommend having your wedding at this scenic park.Going into this process I was told by family members that the reception would be a fun party for friends and family and that the bride and groom don't really have all the fun, well we had the time of our lives.

Absolutely perfect beautiful wedding!!
My husband and I chose this venue immediately without looking elsewhere, because of the beautiful location and the great vibe we got from their event coordinator Tammy. From start to finish Tammy was a pleasure to work with, and gave us the exact wedding we envisioned. The staff we had was great, they all cheered me on before I walked down the aisle, and their excitement was genuine. When our reception started they were attentive, pleasant and helpful. Most restaurant and service staff nowadays seem to be just going through the motions as employees, but not at the Falconwood. I had several great conversations with them throughout the night, and I felt that they had just as good a time as we all did. All of our friends and family raved about the amazing food and atmosphere, and we were told by many that it was one of the best weddings they’ve ever been to. I wish we could relive our wedding day again and again, it was absolutely perfect. 10/10, 5 stars.My husband and I chose this venue immediately without looking elsewhere, because of the beautiful location and the great vibe we got from their event coordinator Tammy.

Amazing from start to finish!
My husband and I looked at numerous venues across WNY, but The Falconwood easily stood out from the crowd! Not only is the property gorgeous both inside and outside, but Tammy is wonderful! We got a good vibe from her right off the bat, which is part of the reason why we chose the Falconwood. We didn't feel limited in any of choices, like adding in an extra signature cocktail to our package. Even when we dropped off our decor and explained to Tammy what our vision was, she made sure it became a reality for the day of our wedding. She made the whole planning process easy on us, and her years of experience in the wedding field clearly showed. The wait staff was incredible, which matched the quality of the food, as well! Our guests didn't have any complaints, and neither did we!My husband and I looked at numerous venues across WNY, but The Falconwood easily stood out from the crowd!

Perfect place for a summer/outdoor event
We couldn't have asked for a better venue to suit our event. The outdoor patio was utilized for a live band and dancing for a huge crowd. It was perfect! The food, staff & service were excellent! And the event planner, Tammy went above and beyond for us. Thank you Tammy and The Falconwood for a perfect & memorable evening!We couldn't have asked for a better venue to suit our event.

Best Day Ever
I got married here on Friday July 15. Tammy was wonderful to work with leading up to and including the big day. As a former event planner, I like to plan for others and planning my own wedding just felt like another job at first. During our final detail meeting, Tammy’s expertise made me feel like things were under control without me having to run around and coordinate the evening of my wedding (and made me feel this way without her actually saying those words 😂)
The day of the wedding was incredibly smooth. The venue was set up exactly as requested and there was clear communication throughout the entire event. One table wasn’t served salads, but the instant it was brought to the servers attentions, multiple servers jumped into action. My husband and I had a sweetheart table & Sam was assigned as our server - she was so kind and patient and able to get us anything we needed. All of the staff members appeared to be working as a team & everyone was so kind. The food was delicious!

We want to express our sincerest gratitude. You and the staff did a fantastic job and made our day better than we could’ve imagined. We wanted to thank you specifically because you’re professionalism and attention to detail are second to none. The venue was also beautiful and really worked for our smaller wedding size.Tammy!

Made a special event even better
We had trouble finding an location to hold a small retirement party. I know it is not as big an event as a wedding but still very special. The care and concern was amazing. And the FOOD!!!! What amazing chef's they have. The view is incredible and watching the sun set over the water was fabulous.We had trouble finding an location to hold a small retirement party.

the perfect venue
we got married in the beginning of august at the falconwood at beaver island state park. it was the most gorgeous day. the weather was perfect. Tammy was our wedding planner and was very good at her job. she was straight to the point and everything went perfectly the day of, thanks to her. the venue was beautiful and for all ages- a playground for kids close by, the beach and building were beautiful to take our wedding photos at. we also took some pictures with some of the bridal party by a pond close by. we had so many compliments of how lovely the ceremony was and the food was delicious provided by the vendor. we did rent lights out by wedding blvd concepts for over the dance floor. it gave the night an extra special touch. I would highly suggest doing this if booking with them. we had an amazing day and would definitely book there again!we got married in the beginning of august at the falconwood at beaver island state park. it was the most gorgeous day. the weather was perfect.

Falconwood to the Rescue
My husband and I made a last minute decision to switch our outdoor wedding plans, indoors to a venue. This was our THIRD wedding venue because of Covid and we were down to the wire to make this work. Tammy at Falconwood galloped in on her big, white horse and saved the day. She was able to recreate about 90% of what we had previously planned, and she was on top of all the details that we had missed. We felt that we were in good hands!
Falconwood was the perfect location for our indoor/outdoor vision. The terrace overlooking the park/water is truly spectacular and the indoor space is beautiful as well. There is also plenty of parking right on site! The biggest take away for all our guests was the FOOD. We received so many comments, even days after the wedding, about how delicious the food was. If the meal is an important factor while planning your wedding day, Falconwood is easily the best choice.
Overall, Falconwood was perfect. Tammy + her staff worked hard to ensure that my husband and I, our family's, and our guests were having a good time and taken care of! If we could, we would relive it all over again. Would def recommend!My husband and I made a last minute decision to switch our outdoor wedding plans, indoors to a venue.

Great Summer venue
Had my daughters bridal shower August 2022. Staff was amazing, very attentive, constantly following up with me to see if everything was going ok. Had brunch, a mimosa bar with fruit and dessert table. Food was very good, desserts were delicious! Setting was beautiful. Had a flower bar and venue provide serpentine tables. Tammy, event coordinator was a pleasure to work with. One of my few complaints were that venues flower pots seemed a little tired and bees were a little annoying although not enough of a reason not to book this venue because the outdoor setting was so pretty. Also it would have been helpful if filled water glasses were already on tables vs going to bar to get water. Had I realized this at the beginning of shower I’m certain that staff would have accommodated me. Other than that we had a great experience.😊Had my daughters bridal shower August 2022.

Great venue and food, not so great coordinator
The venue and the day of staff were wonderful, and the food was great, beautiful vies on the open air patio. The venue events coordinator, Tammy, is where it fell short. Extremely inflexible, showed up late to scheduled meetings, and very unaccommodating. Would have to email her the same questions multiple times, would constantly forget conversations we had, and we would have to send her things multiple times. Would not allow flower/cake/dessert drop off more than an hour before the event (even though there was staff there all morning), causing the vendors to have to deliver them to our house for us to stuff in our cars. Not upfront on pricing and difficult to get answers from. While the venue itself was great, the added stress of dealing with her was not worth it. Even the event staff were visibly annoyed with having to deal with her. Would not recommend.The venue and the day of staff were wonderful, and the food was great, beautiful vies on the open air patio. The venue events coordinator, Tammy, is where it fell short.

Timothy,
I've reached out to you twice with no response so I will try here.
I own Montana International and I was really shocked to hear about your experience because Tammy has been with us over a year and I've never heard any of these types of complaints about her. In fact, we consistently get rave reviews about Tammy - her attention to detail and going above and beyond. That being said, I really really want to know what went wrong so we can make sure it doesn't happen again.
I dug a little deeper. Through our event management program, it keeps all correspondence for emails at least. I read through the 60+ emails you shared with each other. She seemed pretty flexible and helpful via emails. Of course I can't review phone calls or face to face meetings so I wanted to get more details from you.
I am sure one of the frustrations was the request for the QR code and that falls squarely on my shoulders. We are just getting our feet under us when it comes to technology and we simply weren't ready to build out the internet offerings at the time you were requesting that information. We only started our contract in 2019 and then COVID hit so as you can imagine we are not as far along as we'd like to be, so I am sorry if that caused you frustration.
I looked into the delivery issue - our staff were there at 3 pm and anything could have been delivered after that time. I'm not sure why there was an issue there......
Can you give me specifics on where Tammy fell short? I will certainly address this and I apologize from the bottom of my heart that you felt stress because of Tammy.
Regards, Cyndy
