This place is the best Carmen is a dream come true for any bride she makes everything soooo smooth and easy for you. She handle everything and let me and my husband enjoy our wedding. Thank you so much Carmen and belhurst staff this place is amaizing also Sharon at front desk. Best experience

We had a great consult at belhurst and decided to book the venue for our wedding! So beautiful.

I got to meet with Sharon the assistant coordinator. Sharon was absolutely amazing and explained everything to us in great detail with minimal questions needed afterwards. When I walked into the Meritage room I audibly gasped. The view is quite literally breathtaking and my fiancee and I knew right then and there that this was the place for us. I also could not believe that they don't charge a venue fee. I went to many other venues who charged around $2,000 dollars just to be there on top of having to get catering and everything else involved and all I could say to my fiancee was "Are you serious? I mean this place isn't even a castle and they want this much!" Anyways long story short, we are so excited to have Belhurst Castle host our upcoming Disney themed wedding. (how perfect to be getting married in a castle)

Belhurst is the perfect full service venue! They have weddings down to a T. It was great getting to enjoy the day knowing that all of the logistics were completely taken care of. Carmen and her staff are amazing. I didn't feel like they were nickle and diming me at any point (unlike some of the other venues in the area we looked at). Also, the castle is absolutely beautiful. I would HIGHLY recommend.

I cannot say enough good things about Carmen! She was absolutely amazing in every way. She definitely made us feel like we were her top priority every time we spoke to her even though we were well aware of just how many weddings she was juggling at the same time! She always responded with a detailed message answering any question i had And then some! The day of the wedding couldn’t have gone better, everything was so beautiful and so perfect. Our waiter during dinner was so attentive and kind, i wish I caught His name and the bartender was amazing as well, we haven’t heard a single complaint from any of our guests, only positive feedback about how beautiful the day was and that the food was delicious! The cleaning staff was also incredible, making sure to have our suite ready for early checkin, we were hoping for it to be ready by 1pm and we were able to check in at 9:30 am!

We had a day planned of wedding visits and our first stop was Belhurst Castle. We met with Carmen and we immediately knew that’s was where we wanted to get married. We did go to all of our other venue appts but after every visit we said they just couldn’t compare to Carmen!! She has many years of experience and it shows! She helped to make the wedding planning process as stress free as possible. She gave use vendor recommendations and each one we used was amazing. The day of the wedding went off without a hitch and it was essentially stress free, as I knew Carmen and her team would have everything covered! Unfortunately our wedding day was pretty chilly. Carmen kept everyone inside until just a few minutes before the ceremony and then took everyone outside to be seated, so they were exposed to the cold for the least amount of time possible. We got so many compliments on how seamlessly our wedding went!! You absolutely can’t go wrong with a Belhurst wedding and Carmen as your wedd... Read moreing planner!

From our very first visit to the Belhurst to weeks after our wedding is over, every interaction has been so easy and flawless! There are not enough words to state how absolutely perfect Sharon is at what she does! My husband and I could not believe she is only one person! From day one she was so quick responding to my emails (and there were a ton!) and she never made me feel like a nuisance with my millions of questions! She allowed us to stop in multiple times and always made time for us when we were there. She was my first line of communication throughout the wedding and the person to set up our decorations the day of! She is one of the main people who made our day perfect. The rest of the castle staff was also completely amazing!! Many guests of mine booked rooms in the castle which were all beautiful, romantic, and comfortable. If you’re getting married at the castle- book the Tower Suite!! I promise you will not regret it! We also got ready in Isabella salon, where the entir...

All of my bridesmaids hair held up throughout the night and all curls stayed exactly as placed! As soon as we were announced Husband and wife there was wine, beer and food waiting for the wedding party at the end of the aisle! Shout out to Tyler who took care of my husband and myself throughout the entire night, making sure we always had a drink and that our food was perfect (which trust me, it was!!). Our guests are still bragging about how delicious the food was a week later! Accommodations for those with food allergies was never a concern, as the castle was very careful to make sure there was no cross contamination while preparing meals. The bar was also able to stock gluten free beer for my guests unable to have gluten! I think the most amazing part of booking the castle, however, was seeing how they work together as a team. When thanking each person, their response was that they couldn’t make it happen without the rest of the staff. It’s so incredible knowing that each person respects and recognizes the role that another plays. I 100% guarantee that if you book the castle your day will be EXACTLY as you imagined. Flawless in every way! I can’t say enough great things about the castle and will forever brag to anyone who will listen at what a great job they did!!

Belhurst Castle, specifically Carmen, made our experience so pleasant. Carmen has a list of recommended vendors and she coordinates directly with them on your wedding day. I had no idea anything was happening. My only job that day was to get ready and get married. She was also able to help us work around a sensitive family issue and helped ease the drama.

We had our ceremony & reception at the Belhurst in August 2019. The day turned out even more beautiful than imagined!!! We are so happy with our choice in this venue for our day. The event coordinators (Carmen and Sharon) were wonderful in making sure everything went as planned. During the planning process, they were always available for questions which helped alleviate any concerns and allowed planning to go smoothly. We loved that that everything you could need is on site - hotel, salon, restaurant. We used the salon for makeup, and most of our family stayed on site. The rooms are a bit pricey during peak season and working with the hotel staff required us to stay on top of tasks; however, you are paying to stay on site in a historical castle and everything worked out well in the end. Plus, the wine spigot was a hit with the guests! The food was perfect, and the amount of choices to customize your menu exceeded expectations. The view of Seneca Lake, and the value compared to othe... Read morer Finger Lakes venues, could not be beat. Definitely check this out!

Belhurst Castle is a beautiful venue, and their staff are wonderful to work with. We got married in July 2019, and couldn't be happier with the day (even in the presence of rain). Carmen and staff were absolutely wonderful! She is truly a pro, and made us feel so at ease throughout the wedding process. The food was wonderful as well (I still have people talking about the mac n cheese bites). I wish I could go back and do it again, or at least go to another wedding there to experience what all my guests raved about!

The Belhurst Castle is set right on Seneca Lake and is a gorgeous backdrop for weddings. We had our reception on the lawn and our reception in the Meritage Ballroom. While the location itself was our initial draw to the Belhurst, the major advantage of the Belhurst was Carmen, Sharon, and the rest of their staff. Carmen and Sharon go above and beyond to help make sure your day goes smoothly. They are true wedding professionals! They are extremely organized, caring, and accommodating. I felt like I could relax and enjoy the day because I trusted Carmen and Sharon completely. The only issue we had at the Belhurst was that we got married on a day that was 100 degrees outside so the air conditioning in the castle was not cutting it for that kind of weather. Everyone had a great time though and we had a beautiful wedding. Highly recommend the Belhurst!

From the start of our planning to the execution of everything on the day of- we cannot imagine having had our wedding anywhere else! The Belhurst Castle team made our day so wonderful and easy to plan and we truly appreciate that, especially since we planned long distance from across the country. Carmen our wedding coordinator was amazing and we were more than impressed with how accurate her suggestions as far as expectations for pricing, headcount and meal choices were. As we progressed through the planning process, it was clear how prepared and professional Carmen & the entire team at Belhurst conducted themselves. On our wedding day, we had rain throughout the day but the entire staff at Belhurst worked extremely hard and managed to get us outside for the event just as the sky cleared up- we were thrilled! The ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and everything in between were incredible. Our guests continue to tell us how nice the wedding was, how beautiful Belhurst Castle is, how ... Read moregreat the staff and service was & most importantly how much fun they had! We love Belhurst's appeal & charm and we were so happy with how our day went, we will definitely be recommending this venue to other couples we know that are planning a wedding.

The castle and grounds are just gorgeous by themselves and the food was fantastic but what really makes Belhurst phenomenal is Carmen. She is a saint. She made sure no "t" was left uncrossed and no "i" un-dotted. She really made the day perfect. She gives you "Carmen's check list of things" to make sure everything goes smoothly the day of and the days leading up to. She has a very calming effect, probably because it is so obvious that she knows exactly what she's doing. Carmen is priceless. The food was great, and when we were unable to finish our dinners the staff boxed them up for us so we could take them to our room. We also ended up with a credit from where we had over paid for some things (they don't charge you for people who don't show up) and that was a nice surprise at checkout. My bridesmaids, my mom, his mom, and I all got our hair and makeup done at the Isabella salon and everyone walked out of there looking fabulous. Holly did my hair and she did an amazing job, I have... Read more a TON of hair and she wrangled it into a bun that held the entire night, even with my veil that weighed about 5lbs. I can't think of one negative thing to say. Everything was perfect

Belhurst was amazing, to say the least. The assistant coordinator, Sharon, was with us EVERY step of the way! The price is steep, but in our minds, so worth it. The compliments we received all night were beyond what we expected. Amazingly beautiful venue, fantastic food, great atmosphere. What more could you ask for??
