We stumbled upon The Briarcliff Manor after weeks of hunting around venues, trying dozens of different dates, and really struggling with finding a place that could fit our party size for our budget. Thank God we found Briarcliff. Perry really made us feel comfortable and at home, like we were in good hands. The venue is stunningly beautiful (really, I cannot stress this enough), the food was spectacular, and the service on our wedding day was excellent. However, we can’t ignore that there were definitely some struggles with the venue leading up to our big day. It seemed like more than once lines of communication were crossed, like we were answering key questions more than once, and that the venue was telling us about new restrictions and last-minute changes just days before the wedding that we should have been told about months in advance… It felt like things could be going more smoothly than they were. For a place that could be one of the grandest wedding venues in Westchester, it... Read more felt like their project management and customer service could have been a little better. We were thrilled that our event came together and looked beautiful, but we could have used fewer last-minute venue problems. Back to positives, The Briarcliff Manor thankfully was very amenable to us wanting to bring in our own decor, flowers, and cake. The menu was quite extensive and had plenty of wiggle room for dietary restrictions and specific requests. All in all, our guests left extremely happy with the way the wedding went and we’re grateful for all the work the folks at Briarcliff put in to make our day spectacular.

It was an absolute pleasure to plan our special day with Emily, Perry and Vincenza. Everything from the decor, to the food, to the service of the staff far exceeded our expectations and we are still receiving compliments from our guests. Thank you to The Briarcliff Manor for making our wedding day so perfect!

We just had our wedding there and cannot day enough good things. Perry, Emily and the entire Briarcliff Manor crew were amazing. They helped us plan a beautiful wedding in less than 2 months. The food was excellent, service was phenomenal and the venue was beautiful. The attention to detail, caring nature and expertise was evident during planning and the day of our wedding. There are recommended vendors that they don’t pressure you to use; however, they are great options and truly work seamlessly with TBM. We used Vincenza for flowers and the venue and church decor. Everything was absolutely beautifully done and we have been receiving nonstop compliments from our guests. We can’t wait to host other events at the manor!

Perry, Vincenza, Emily and the whole team at The Briarcliff Manor are the absolute best! From the day we sat down for our first meeting to the follow up a few weeks after our event, they were so incredibly supportive and made our day beyond special. We were engaged in September 2018 and married August 2019 so a relatively short period of time, but they made the process so seamless. The Manor itself is gorgeous - once a mansion, turned restaurant, turned venue, with views overlooking the Hudson River. We were lucky enough to have a mild August night and were able to enjoy the cocktail hour outside while the sun set. The room was set perfectly when we moved inside with all of the decor done by Vincenza herself, exactly to our specifications. Emily, Jessica, and the rest of the team we’re right by our sides throughout the night for anything we needed, including making sure we were not just taking the important photos with the photographers, but enjoying our own event! Our fr... Read moreiends and family are still talking about what an amazing time they had, and my only wish is that we could have stayed all night! There was so much love and positive energy and we couldn’t have done it without The Briarcliff Manor!

My husband and I had the honour of getting married at the Briarcliff Manor this past June, and we will never forget how the staff went above and beyond to help us! From Emily and her planning, to Perry's hospitality, to Vincenza's decorations --- pink roses everywhere and making our chuppah-- I couldn't believe how special they made us feel. They let us store and steam my wedding dress there days early. On our wedding day, we arrived with a ton of extra decor items, and they actually unpacked all of the boxes and set things out, and at the end of the night they repacked anything-- I didn't have to do a thing! My bridal attendant was wonderful-- she followed me for the whole night, to hold my train and get me anything I needed. The Briarcliff Manor was also so professional about the weather! We changed to an inside ceremony at the last minute, but when the weather cleared, the staff instantly opened the gardens and put tables outside so our guests could enjoy the lovely weather during t... Read morehe cocktail hour. The food was also superb-- they went out of their way to make lots of vegetarian options for us, especially the eggplant rolls! The Briarcliff Manor made our wedding superb and we couldn't be happier!

I got married on 4.26.19. Unfortunately it was raining that day and our ceremony was inside. But!! Let me tell you it was beautiful! The Briarcliff Manor was so very accommodating and the staff was absolutely wonderful. My husband and I had thee best time. And! Our guests are still talking about how awesome it was. I honestly have zero complaints and I would bet my guest felt the same way. From the very first meeting to the wedding day everything was smooth sailing. Emails were answered in a timely manor, everyone was super friendly and helpful. We fell in love with the Briarcliff Manor. It’s such a beautiful wedding venue and we are so glad we had our wedding there. Thanks again to Perry and Emily for making our day magical. As well as all of the staff there, thank you again.

Having our wedding at The Briarcliff Manor was the best decision we ever made and our guests thought so too! The venue is beautiful, the food delicious and the staff very professional and attentive. The in house florist, Vincenza, did such a wonderful job with the centerpieces and bouquets. Our pictures look amazing! The Paparazzi photos the staff at the venue took were a pleasant surprise. We picked our wedding date last minute, the whole thing was planned in just a few weeks. Everyone thought we were crazy but Perry, Vincenza and Emily made it all possible and in the end it was what my husband and I had always hoped for.

From the moment my wife walked through the doors of The Briarcliff Manor she knew that this was going to be the host of our reception. From the beautiful interior to the charming exterior, it was the perfect place for us. They were very helpful in all of our decision making and helped guide us through the entire process. Everyone complimented the food and atmosphere that The Briarcliff Manor provided. Would definitely recommened!

Our Wedding at The Briarcliff Manor was more than AMAZING! It was "The Ultimate Wedding 9.15.19". Our special day was an absolute dream come true! The historical and classical ambiance of The Briarcliff Manor really added a unique touch coupled with our romantic vibes. The Master Minds behind the scenes graciously accommodated and catered to all of our needs and special requests! We truly felt like royalty, accompanied by our friends and family.

Our wedding this past November 4th was better than we could have ever imagined ! We can’t tell you how many of our guests raved about the beautiful venue,food, cocktail hour, and the incredible service . They were blown away ! Perry and Emily are amazing ! And we cannot thank them enough for everything !

We recently got married on August 4th at Briarcliff Manor. We couldn’t have been more happy to have had our wedding at Briarcliff Manor. The Briarcliff Manor was the first location we had seen in the initial planning phase, we just fell in LOVE...Perry gave us a great tour of the Manor and really detailed everything we needed to know. Perry was kind enough to work with us incorporating additional food items that would make our families comfortable. We just knew that this was the place we wanted to get married. Emily and the entire team had been very helpful throughout the process of planning and prep. It truly eliminate unnecessary stress. Everything on the actual day was perfect and the entire team was present to help us. It was truly magically! I had prepped myself to think I was not going to get a chance to enjoy the food or drinks and was I wrong...Perry made sure that me and my husband enjoyed the food. Jerry was amazing in ensuring we had a filled glass throughout the night. We... Read more truly appreciated the little touches from the team. All of our guests enjoyed it all. THANK YOU Perry, Emily and the entire team for helping us create a lifetime of wonderful memories.

My husband and I had our wedding reception at The Briarcliff Manor in July 2019. From the start, we felt at home at the Manor, between the warm atmosphere and the down to earth owners. The Manor had many selling points for us - an intimate setting with a vintage vibe, only one wedding at a time, not the same venue as all our family and friends used, and mainly, the ability to personalize and customize many aspects of our wedding. Perry sold us from the start on the idea of being able to tweak the menu to include items we wanted that represented us. Leading up to the wedding, we worked mainly with Emily, who took all our suggestions and comments in stride and made it all happen! (We were pretty particular about all our details.) At times we had a little back and forth about the details, but ultimately, Perry and Emily worked to satisfy our desires and make our vision come true. We are so glad that we chose The Briarcliff Manor to host our family and friends for such an important d... Read moreay in our lives. The service, the food, the view and the ambiance are all A+++! Such a special place that we will never forget.

I would recommend the Briarcliff Manor to any couple looking for a historic venue with a staff that treats you like family. We had such an amazing experience from the planning to the night of the wedding. It was more than I imagined. We were planning our wedding from out of state and the staff was extremely flexible and worked with the few days we were in the area. We had a New Year's Eve wedding and wanted to play into the holiday season. Vincenza decorates the Briarcliff Manor with garland, trees, wreaths, and oversized ornaments. She suggested balloons for the lobby and I was so happy she talked me into it because it surprised everyone and was such a nice touch. The Bride and Groom's rooms were amazing. Due to the weather, our wedding party arrived earlier than planned for the reception, they were ready for us with food and champagne. There was a last minute change/addition to our seating, I told Emily and she took care of it quickly and set my mind at ease. They brought us ... Read morea sampling of the cocktail hour food so we could take pictures without going hungry. Which brings me to the food, it was absolutely delicious and service was great. During the reception, Robert was attentive and between him and the waitstaff somehow was always available when we wanted another glass of champagne, water or whatever we wanted. At midnight, they handed out hats, props, and noisemakers for us to ring in the new year. I could go on and on about the amazing experience we had with our wedding at the Briarcliff Manor. They took our vision and made it a reality. We are so thankful to Perry, Vincenza, Emily, Robert and the rest of the team for taking care of us.

I was recently married in April of this year. The main server was attentive to our needs. He made sure my husband and I were served and everything about our reception flowed as planned. The decor by Vincenza was absolutely breathtaking. She truly is committed to her work and is very talented. The food was great, our guests thoroughly enjoyed. Overall, we had a satisfying experience.
