With its picturesque landscapes and timeless charm, the Hudson Valley in New York State is a magnet for couples seeking a romantic backdrop for their wedding day. I love this region and the many beautiful venues available for events and weddings. Here are just some of the awesome event spaces in the area. 


The Garrison is located on the Hudson River and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and valleys. You can exchange vows in an outdoor ceremony overlooking the river, followed by a reception in the extremely versatile ballroom. This space has large windows, so the stunning views of the mountains are always with you. 

Mohonk Mountain House is a historic Victorian castle resort that boasts stunning architecture, sprawling gardens, and a private glacial lake. You can choose to say "I do" in the quaint chapel or among the flowers of their extensive gardens. There are so many landscape options for you and your wedding photographer to choose from. Mohonk Mountain House is a one-stop shop option for your wedding. No transportation would be needed, as wedding ceremony and reception venues, catering, and accommodations are all available in this one location. 

Buttermilk Falls Inn & Spa is located on a sprawling estate that overlooks the Hudson River. This estate combines rustic elegance with modern amenities. For couples looking to embrace the outdoors for their wedding experience, you can choose to exchange vows beneath the shade of towering trees or in front of a beautiful weeping willow tree (my favorite). And be sure to grab a selfie with one of the resident llamas. 

Get married among the trees at Cedar Lakes Estate. For those of you considering a winter wedding, this venue offers a pavilion that can be used through all seasons. If you are looking for a farm-to-table experience, this is a great choice. I love that this estate functions with a chef’s garden, and much of the food can be sourced from the estate’s garden to your wedding reception table. Other items are also sourced locally. 

Situated in the charming town of Beacon, The Roundhouse offers a blend of romance with chic industrial flair. The property began as a textile factory, and this historic charm is present throughout. This venue offers the opportunity to exchange vows overlooking a waterfall. The Roundhouse’s location is ideal, especially if you have guests traveling in for your wedding. It’s just a short train ride from New York City. 


Are you a fan of Bridgerton? Well, the Glenmere Mansion could have served as a backdrop for the filming of this show. Glenmere offers a historic yet elegant vibe with manicured gardens and views featuring rolling hills. Regardless of the size of your guest list, this venue can accommodate both intimate and large wedding events. 

The Hudson Valley offers a diverse array of wedding venues to suit every style and preference. Whether you envision a rustic barn wedding, a romantic garden ceremony, or a grand estate affair, this region provides so much variety when it comes to planning your ideal wedding day. As a Hudson Valley wedding planner, I love having the opportunity to help couples plan and execute their wedding day, while experiencing all the beauty this area offers.
