Venues & Event Spaces near Scotia, NY

“I have not seen the rooms at Glen Sanders but I know they go above and beyond to make your experiance one you will never ever forget. I use to cook there back in the day. Highly recommended this place for any kind of party. Graduations, Reunions, Weddings. You name it. You will always have a good time at the event. I have heard really good things about there rooms. You do not need to go for a big event. You can go to there dining room to eat with your other half just you and the other person. White glove service through out your visit. ?????”

“We had such a great time here with our friends!! It’s so nice to have an indoor option that’s not a movie or bowling! We got the hang of axe throwing and then became a bit more competitive with it! Loads of fun! Will be back again!”

“We hosted a company event with 45 people and could not have been more happy with the venue, food and service. I have hosted other events like showers and birthday parties here and have been impressed each time.”

“BOOK THIS VENUE!! We started the wedding planning process without fully knowing what we wanted our day to look like but after touring the Mohawk River Country Club and meeting Sal, we immediately knew this was where we wanted to get married. Sal had an answer and a plan for every question or unknown we had. While offering solutions, he also made it clear that there was flexibility in every decision and that we could really make the day however we wanted to. He was incredibly responsive and helpful over the roughly 1.5 years of planning, all while being a really cool person who we were excited to work with.

The venue underwent some BEAUTIFUL upgrades in the time between when we booked and our wedding day which was awesome. A Groom's Suite was added which looks amazing, and the outside ceremony location was redone and I cannot even describe how beautiful this new space is. We lucked out and were able to have an outdoor ceremony on November 2nd!!

Everything is taken care of at this venue which really lessened the stress of wedding planning. We loved the all-inclusive per-person pricing as we didn't have to make even more stressful decisions. Our guests raved about the food (cocktail hour and the plated dinner) and fully enjoyed the open bar. We were able to go in and decorate the venue the day before, just before having our rehearsal, and did not have to pack up anything after the wedding. All of our things were packed and ready to be picked up Sunday morning after our hotel checkout time. It felt like we had full access to this venue the whole wedding weekend (this might not be the case if other weddings would have been booked the day before or after, but this was our experience), and they truly made us feel so special. We really felt prioritized and it meant so much to us. Sal and his wife Stephanie were absolutely amazing and were available to us throughout the entire wedding day- tracking down certain guests needed for photos, bringing cocktail hour food up to us in the Bridal Suite when we were getting my dress bustled, tracking us down to let us know our dinner had been put on our table, getting us drinks if we needed them, moving our ceremony florals into the ballroom to decorate our sweetheart table... they truly made this day perfect and we cannot thank them enough.

Again I say, if you're thinking about this venue, book it! You seriously will not regret it and your guests will have the best time. We hope to get invited back to a wedding at MRCC in the future!”

“My wife and I got married at Alta Mont Manor on 10/13/24, and it was an absolutely amazing experience. The venue is stunning—beautiful, intimate, and incredibly comfortable. Harvey, the owner, was exceptional. He went above and beyond to help us, calming all our anxieties and ensuring everything went smoothly. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate our special day.”

“The owner was absolutely amazing! The quality of his skill, and our overall experience with him was amazing!Being there was like a fairytale! I highly recommend!”

“My wife and I just had our wedding reception at River Stone Manor and I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience. We had been married the year before (eloped to Las Vegas), so this was more of our party for family and friends and also a one-year anniversary celebration. As such, we had some very untraditional ideas for the event. Our wedding planner at River Stone, Ashley Dariano, and all of the River Stone team were exceptional about listening to our vision for the evening (including a non-traditional group activity instead of a ceremony) and bringing it to life. Ashley took the time to ensure she fully understood how we wanted things to flow and delivered 1000%. She communicated with us regularly leading up to the event and, after our final pre-event meeting with her, we were so excited because we knew it was going to be handled perfectly. The one curveball we dealt with that day was the weather (we wanted an outdoor “ceremony” activity and had our reception in the beautiful tent area); however, the River Stone team did not allow Mother Nature to derail our day. As the weather changed, things were moved swiftly from outdoors to the tent and the tent itself was equipped to protect us from a brief thunderstorm. The food was amazing! So many great options and our guests said that our food selections – including the mac & cheese and taco bars – really represented who we were as people. It was a balance of classy and casual. The staff was so attentive to our needs and went above and beyond, constantly checking in with us. And when it came to “game time,” Ashley was a total BOSS. We did not see her stop once. She was checking in with our guests, pouring champagne, picking up plates, overseeing the changes of the evening, and just making sure no detail was left unattended to. Our “wow” moment was when one of our guests, who struggles with extreme food allergies and prepared us that she probably wouldn’t be able to eat much, approached us and said, “I’ve never been able to eat this much at a wedding before!” The staff was so attentive to her needs – it blew us away. Our guests are STILL talking about how amazing our reception was. Thank you so much to Ashley and all of the River Stone team for making our day exactly as we imagined it!”

“Amazing venue! I went to Van Gogh and later Monet. I will post photo as I edit them. Both shows were amazing and I appreciated all of the work that went into each.”

“I just had my bridal shower here this past weekend, and Laura and her team were amazing! Very communicative from the beginning and the place was just so cute. I can't wait to come back for a girls day!”

“Proctor's is a great place to attend a show. The venue can make or break any show depending on the atmosphere, the sound system, and the people running it. While not perfect, Proctor's scores more reliably on each of these points, making it my favorite place to go for live entertainment.”

“We set almost alone for dinner overlooking the eighteenth green. We only saw 2 golfers but I don't take pictures of peopleI don't know (if at all possible). Entrance is in the back of the building, and could have at least one sign indicating that. I ordered a turkey club $14, and my brother ordered a hamburger $12. Both of us were very pleased with our meals. I am absolutely planning on going again. Service was exceptional and friendly.”

“We had our wedding at the Terrace this past weekend, November 4th. This was the perfect venue for a late fall wedding. From the beautiful view of the mohawk, well kept grounds, and lighting accents at night, we could not have asked for a more picturesque location.Taylor, the venue coordinator, was a pleasure to work with and ensured that our vision came to life. she worked with us throughout our planning process and was very accommodating to our requests. We were able to customize our menu the way we wanted and within our price range.The staff made us, the bride and groom, feel so cared for and allowed us to truly enjoy our night. Pat, our dedicated staff member, was absolutely wonderful and made sure we had everything we needed. Our guests had nothing but good things to say about the food and complemented the staff endlessly. Overall, we highly recommend the Terrace for your wedding as they made our special day such a wonderful experience!”

“The Appel Inn was quite literally the perfect venue for our June 2024 wedding! Between the circular layout, the tall ceiling with white-washed walls, and tons of windows, the building feels so open and fits in perfectly with the natural beauty outside. Our guests are still raving about how beautiful it was.

Our ceremony was offsite, but we were still able to use the She Shed for the bridesmaids to get ready that morning. We also enjoyed being able to take pictures afterwards near the creek and under the clear top tent out back. Even on a very humid June day, we were so glad to be able to use the deck for cocktail hour and loved that the bar was covered on the deck, so that guests were able to move in and out all night long. It was also lovely having a sweetheart table that was separate but never made us feel far from our guests.

We had more children than the average wedding, but with all the lawn space, wraparound deck, and fire pit, there was ample room for the kids to run around outside and play lawn games in addition to joining us on the dance floor.

Laurie was a pleasure to work with from the start. She was prompt in all our communications and even let us come back for a second tour when my parents were in town about a month after our initial visit. She recommended many of the vendors we ended up using: Nicole’s Catering, DJ Paul Calarco, Ambiance Floral, Salon 146, and even enthusiastically welcomed us bringing in the Emack & Bolio’s ice cream truck! Each vendor she recommended was top-notch and worked so seamlessly as a team with Laurie & the other vendors, and we couldn’t be happier with our choices. On the day of the wedding, Laurie’s husband Gerd greeted us first thing in the morning and happily helped us bring in all the decor & lawn games, and they were both involved all day in helping to make sure everything ran smoothly—all the way through takedown at the end of the night. We highly recommend the Appel Inn for your special day. It was truly worth every penny!”

“We were looking for a small inexpensive tree, and ended up at Ellms Farm. At first we didn't really find anything within our budget and were ready to leave then Dan helped us find one within our budget and was way more than accommodating, very friendly. His help was greatly appreciated and we will be back there next year for sure!!”
