It was a newly renovated stallion barn so everything was beautiful and absolutely no wear and tear. – Nhien D via The Knot

It creates the most magical ambiance from the cocktail hour in a grass paddock, to the barn doors opening as the bride walks out, to the first look on the hilltop, it truly will blow you away. Secondly, the staff is incredible! They coordinate everything and made it all so seamless. – Nadine P via The Knot

I never knew what my dream wedding venue would be until I saw The Promise Gardens. After I found this venue everything else for my wedding fell into place like it was a sign I found the perfect place. I will always cherish the day I married my best friend at the most amazing venue. – Mya via Weddingwire.

One of our favorite things about The Promise Gardens was the slight separation between dining and dancing areas, allowing those who would prefer to socialize the ability to do so without straining to hear each other but also being close enough to the fun to feel included. We highly recommend The Promise Gardens!- Jenn Costo via Google reviews.

We had our wedding at Handsome Hollow on 10/22/21, and there are truly no words for how perfect of an experience we had. The area of upstate NY, the barn, the farmhouse, the property, it all possesses a unique intrinsic charm that you just can’t find anywhere else. – Samantha via Weddingwire

We used their caterer kitchen at Shale Hill Farm – the food was unbelievable and beautiful. We used their DJ- Theo Marshall and I could not have been happier. He just totally got our vibe and played all of the right music. Everyone loved it! The farm is so beautiful on its own, with flowers and decor is was a fairytale. – Katie D. via Weddingwire

Just wish we didn’t waste money paying for after-party food and DJ and transportation and not getting the full time we paid for and not getting money back. Weddings are not cheap! Not fair in my eyes and not handled properly to get the bride involved. – Amanda P via The Knot

Absolutely beautiful venue. Needed every little decorations to be perfect. We are so happy we chose this venue. They were so helpful and kind. It rained on our big day but we didn’t feel like moving the ceremony indoors was a loss at all. It was warm, cozy and intimate. Would recommend this place to anyone. – Rebecca S. via Weddingwire.

The Barn itself was the blank slate that we were looking for and gave us the opportunity to truly create our own vision in an elegantly rustic venue. The short drive to Lake George was certainly a big appeal for our choice of venue as well. While this destination is located on the north end of the lake, it was important to ensure accommodations were available for our guests who wanted to stay local. – Nicole B via The Knot.

This venue is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. even when you see it off-season without any decor it takes your breath away. all of my guests were blown away by the venue itself and the stunning views of the mountains. – Jessica R via Weddingwire.
