Is there a way that I can give more stars to a review?

I had the most wonderful experience celebrating my daughter’s wedding at The Village Club at Lake Success on 8/17/24. Barry Rosenthal is an exceptional director with his attention to detail from start to finish. He and his amazing staff executed things seamlessly, even when faced with last minute weather challenges, and two very emotional families. Rain clouds blew in just moments before we were getting ready to let our guests into the beautifully decorated outdoor terrace. Barry brilliantly made some 11th hour adjustments and our guests ended up enjoying the fantastic cocktail hour first while he organized his team to move the flowers, chairs and all the décor inside. Our guests were well fed and happy as they enjoyed our gorgeous indoor ceremony afterwards. It was so exciting to look behind the curtain and see how the magic happens.

Amy, their bridal attendant provided all the TLC that our large bridal party needed during the day and well into the evening. She was so lovely, warm and efficient, directing everyone well into the late night, even helping to patch up my daughter’s dress when the bustle broke. There is no need to hire an outside party planner or “day of” specialist, when you have such an amazing team like Barry and Amy running things here.

And then there was the FOOD! Everyone was raving over the beautiful and delicious choices that we served at the cocktail hour, reception and “after party”. Chefs Dan and Rich prepared the most outstanding food that we can remember ever having at a wedding. They were able to successfully cater to several of our guest’s specific dietary needs, while they were delighting all of our party guests.

Thank you to everyone at The Village Club at Lake Success for making our daughter’s dream come true.

My husband and I got married at VCLS in June of 2024, and Barry and Amy went above and beyond to make our day as special and seamless as possible. I can't imagine that there are many other venues that provide the level of support and attention to detail as Barry and Amy provided us with. They anticipated every need we had - we would often think of something we wanted or needed, and it turned out that they had already taken care of it (if they hadn't already, they immediately did so). They coordinated with our vendors, kept track of the many items we brought to the venue for the ceremony and reception, helped us get photos in the best locations, surprised us with an extra pass around during cocktail hour, and so much more. No detail was missed, and they made sure that we (and our families) could enjoy our day without having to deal with many logistics. The weather on our wedding day was hot and humid and had a chance of rain, but Barry and Amy supported our dream to have our ceremony outdoors - they tracked the weather all day, and provided us with the flexibility to decide about the ceremony location much later than we would have expected. We ended up being able to have our ceremony outdoors, and it was absolutely beautiful! Barry and Amy were very supportive during the planning process in addition to the day of the wedding. The food was amazing and Barry and Amy again went above and beyond in allowing us to make minor changes to the menu offerings. We truly cannot say enough good things about the venue - it's beautiful and Barry and Amy are unmatched in the level of service they provide. Our wedding was everything we ever dreamed of. We will be recommending the venue to everyone we know!

Our wedding at Village Club at Lake Success was magical. The venue was beautiful with the updated flooring, paint, window treatments and carpet. The ballroom is spectacular but the way it was transformed for our ceremony and reception truly felt like a dream.

Barry, Amy and their staff made the planning process and the evening seamless and stress-free. Everything flowed so well. They were so kind and there was such attention to detail. We were able to relax and enjoy. We felt taken care of.

Another unforgettable aspect of our wedding was the food and the service. Our guests were raving about food. The dishes were creative, beautiful, and delicious.

Highly recommend!
