Grandview is excellent! The staff goes above and beyond. I didn’t have a wedding coordinator, so I was a little nervous, but they made it all so easy. They helped coordinate the day of the event and made sure it all ran perfectly. The venue was absolutely gorgeous, even for a cold March wedding. Everything looked amazing and came together beautifully. My guests raved about the cocktail hour; it was a highlight!

Our wedding at the Grandview was perfect. From the second we toured it Emily, Abigail, and everyone we dealt with was incredible. They answered every question, helped us plan the smoothest wedding day possible, and went above and beyond to make our day special!
Our wedding day they set everything up to perfection, we didn't have to worry about a thing. During the ceremony and reception everything was beautiful and every single worker went out of their way to make sure it was the best day ever. The food was delicious and the desserts were to die for. They even packed everything into our car afterwards and sent us home with to go bags of food and desserts!
We can't recommend the Grandview enough.

I had my wedding at the Grandview in August 2024 and they were absolutely amazing from scheduling the venue tour to the day after the wedding! You can tell they do so many weddings because they're amazing at it, but they truly make you and your wedding feel special. They were super accommodating with any requests that we had (such as an odd signature cocktail in memory of my husband's late father). The space is also stunning! Every staff member we interacted with was friendly and professional, they truly made our wedding the best experience. Last but not least, the food and drinks! Most people complain wedding food is meh and drinks are watered down, but that was not the case at the Grandview! Everyone raved to us about how great the food and drinks were! I also loved the Grandview had so many different packages to fit any couple's needs. It was important to me to know how much this was going to cost upfront and the Grandview made that so easy. If you want a wedding in the Hudson Valley, the Grandview is the best spot!

The venue itself is stunning, with breathtaking views that made the night unforgettable. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how beautiful the setting was and how delicious the food turned out to be.
What really made the experience extra special was the incredible staff. They were so friendly, professional, and easy to work with. They went above and beyond to make the entire planning process stress-free and seamless. On our wedding day, their attention to detail and care for every little moment ensured everything went off without a hitch.
We are still smiling thinking about our wedding, and we are so grateful to The Grandview team for making our day better than we ever imagined. We highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful location, amazing food, and a team of staff that will treat you like family!

Our wedding on September 1, 2024 was an absolute fairytale and beyond our dreams, all thanks to the kind, courteous, and attentive staff at The Grandview.
From our first visit, Emily was so friendly and welcoming, as was the rest of the staff, and we knew we had found the perfect venue for our wedding. Throughout the entire process, The Grandview went above and beyond to make sure every detail was taken care of. From the planning stages to the big day itself, they were professional, friendly, and genuinely invested in making our wedding day unforgettable. Everyone was incredibly organized, helping us navigate the many choices with ease, and ensuring that everything ran smoothly.
The food was also a highlight! Guests are still raving about the cocktail hour, which was thoughtfully crafted and delicious. We were able to personalize the menu to suit our tastes, and the kitchen staff executed everything perfectly. The presentation was beautiful, and the flavors were unforgettable.
The overall experience at The Grandview was nothing short of perfect. The breathtaking beauty of the view, combined with top-notch service, made our wedding day feel like a fairytale come to life. If you're looking for a venue that offers both elegance and a sense of tranquility, this is the place. Highly recommend it to anyone seeking the wedding of their dreams!

We had our wedding at The Grandview in October and we were absolutely thrilled with how everything came out and the entire planning process! From the moment we reached out to inquire, the staff there were nothing but kind, experienced and eager to make our dreams come true. We worked mainly with Abby who was a SAINT and helped guide us through everything! We booked about 18 months before our big day and Abby made sure to send check ins and reminders to keep us on track and make sure everything went smoothly. On the day of our wedding, we had some on and off rain so we weren't sure if we would have the ceremony outdoors or not. Abby and our wedding attendant Imani were so flexible and reassuring, helping us to make last minute changes and ensure that we still had a gorgeous ceremony and our guests were having a great time! Every single item of food that we had was delicious and it's one of the main things our guests still complement us on and remember the most! Overall we couldn't be happier that we were able to celebrate our wedding at The Grandview and I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for an amazing all-in experience!!

My husband and I had an incredible experience working with The Grandview for our wedding. There are too many good things to list in one review, but here are a few highlights of our experience:
1. The entire planning process leading up to the wedding itself was easy, streamlined, and seamless. Our sales coordinator, Ashley, took amazing care to thoroughly and promptly answer all of our (many) questions, before and after we signed the contract. She explained to us exactly what we needed to have prepared and when. It made what could have been a very arduous process truly enjoyable.
2. The food at the reception was *impeccable*. We received so many compliments from our guests about how good literally all of the food was, from the cocktail hour hors d'oeuvres to the cake and everything in between. There is also a LOT of food—your guests will definitely not go hungry!
3. The name of the venue does not lie: it is a truly grand view. Our ceremony was in the outdoor area and our reception was in the tent, and we could not have been happier with how the day turned out. The views made for some amazing photos from our photographer, Mikey Neff!
4. The staff made everything so easy for us. Everyone from the wait staff to our maître d' (shoutout to Thomas, who took incredible care of us) to the bartenders were a pleasure to work with every step of the way.
All in all, we cannot recommend The Grandview highly enough. We joked (partially) with our guests that we may just have to do a 5 or 10 year vow renewal party there, just to recreate the magic of the day! 7 out of 5 stars.

I had my wedding at the Grandview in May of this year. They did renovations and the ballroom is gorgeous. So modern and fresh. My husband and I toured the venue about a year before and from the moment we met Emily we knew it was where we were going to get married. Emily was amazing !!Any questions I had she always was there to help and guide me. She is a very welcoming and kind soul. The day of my wedding was beautiful and more than I could have imagined. It was incredible. Myself, bridesmaids, mother and mother-in-law all got ready in the bridal suites. I had Sashell for the day who help with food and drink service to helping me get dressed and take pictures. She was awesome. Victor was our matradee. He handled everything and kept us on track. He was so personable and we didn’t have to worry about anything. The entire staff at the Grandview was amazing.

My husband and I were married here in the indoor ballroom on 5/31. We could not say enough wonderful things about this venue. From the beginning, Abby was very helpful in answering all of my questions. The planning process was made easy by the staff. On the day of, everything was perfect. Our maitre d and attendant were amazing, always checking on us and seeing if we needed anything. Our guests are still raving about the beautiful views, delicious food, and the amazing venue! We could not recommend The Grandview enough!

This Venue was the best. First of all I’m out of state, and I found going with them would be easiest based on the fact they do everything in house- food, cake, open bar, ceremony, etc. (and most reasonable priced for everything) They made the whole wedding planning process so easy to do virtually via email and zoom. They were so helpful and easy going. So many of my guest have said it was the best wedding food they have ever had. The venue itself is BEAUTIFUL. The staff is amazing couldn’t leave them a better review. The day of attendant was at my beck and call- so sweet, as was the maître de. I can’t say enough great things I had a beautiful wedding and wonderful experience there. From a very happy bride!

What a stunning venue! We got married in the outdoor ballroom and were so lucky to have a perfect early summer day. Our guests have not stopped telling us how beautiful The Grandview is. The food was delicious - was well worth it to upgrade to the filet mignon for dinner and cannoli filling for cake! The team very graciously packed up leftovers and an additional entrée for my husband and me. I also paid for a pampered package to be able to use the bridal cottage and am so happy I did; it was such a beautiful space to get ready, delicious catered food, and such a sweet wedding attendant. The lighting was great for hair/makeup prep and photos. Everyone we worked with at The Grandview was so nice and helpful, especially Emily! She was an absolute angel to work with during the planning process and was always so professional and organized. We would recommend this venue wholeheartedly! So happy we got married here.

From start to finish, our wedding was PERFECT at the Grandview. We loved working with all of their staff and they truly make you feel like royalty. May 11th will be my favorite day always, and so much of that is because of the Grandview. Everything from the ambiance, the kindness of the staff, the people taking care of me and my husband and the food was out of this world. My guests are still talking about their filet mignon and the dessert spectacular! I wish I could do it all over again at the Grandview!

They made us feel so comfortable and confident in every step along the way and our attendant and maitre 'd couldn't have been better.

The Grandview was the perfect place for me and my husband. We were lucky enough to have the outdoor ballroom which, the name of the venue says it all! I never realized how entertained guests can be by a view! Everyone working there was so kind, we primarily worked with Emily who helped us while we were planning. So responsive, kind, professional and accommodating- she even were able to get a soft serve machine just for our day! The staff on the day of were really reliable and communicative. Shawell was so helpful when we were ironing out the details of the day. Thomas, our maitre'd, was very helpful at communicating and gave us a look at the reception area without any guests which was a perfect moment for me and my husband to take it all in. Our wedding attendant, Emani, was helpful all day in making sure I was taken care of and was great company for the day. If you go with the venue, I'd highly recommend the pamper package, me and my girls loved getting ready at the venue, have some breakfast, and truly felt pampered. We felt so well taken care of at the Grandview and are so grateful we were able to have our wedding there. In addition, their package includes catering! The food was a hit with guests, especially the cocktail hour food, we loved the Spanish delights table. They provide the space (including tables, chairs, linens), catering, and the bar which made it an easy choice for us since they are able to provide so much.

Abby and Emily were amazing representatives and so helpful throughout the whole process. They were kind, personable, and truly put our experience over the top. We love to go back and visit just to say hello! Definitely recommend for a Hudson Valley wedding.

Abby was our coordinator and I literally could not have done it without all of her support throughout our wedding season and wedding day. Everyone asked me “what was your one thing that went wrong on your wedding day?” And I feel so lucky to say “nothing!!”. The grandview staff knocked it out of the park (AND fixed my wedding gown in a moment of desperation)
Highly recommend ( & the new renovation is a major bonus ;) )

From start to finish The Grandview was an absolute delight to work with. From sitting us down and showing us all that they could do (which was extensive) for our food/cocktail hour/drinks/decor to giving us recommendations and referrals for vendors they made planning a wedding a breeze, Our coordinator Abby was extremely responsive and communication was excellent. We even had our rehearsal dinner at Shadows on the Hudson next door and it was an amazing dinner. I would 100% go back and plan my wedding all over gain to have at The Grandview!

The Grandview was the best decision we made for our wedding day. Everyone was so helpful every step of the way leading up and even being so accommodating when we kept changing our minds. The day of wouldn't have been so calm and carefree with our our coordinator Abby and our attendant who always made sure our glasses were never empty and every small detail came to fruition. I will recommend this venue to any and everyone. The drinks were fantastic, the ballroom was a literal fairytale and the food was 100/10. Everyone still talks about it and I still dream about some of the food that we had chosen. It may be uncouth to ask for recipes but being as traveled 3000 miles to have my wedding here, I don't think would be wrong lol.

I cannot say enough good things about the Grandview. My husband and I decided to get married at the venue because of the incredible views- but what we did not expect was the incredible amount of service and attention to detail and warmth from the staff at the Grandview. During the planning process, Abby was super helpful and did not hesitate to talk through any questions we had (big or small). It really felt like a one stop shop and made my life 1000% easier.
On the wedding day, the day of coordinator and wedding attendant were so kind and made sure all the details of the ceremony and reception were to our liking. More importantly- they made sure we had food to eat before going out to greet our guests (it becomes impossible to eat on your wedding day which I discovered really fast because everyone is pulling you to talk).
Speaking of food... our guests could not stop raving about the sheer quantity AND quality of the food!! I truly believe to throw a great party you need 3 things: great food, drinks, and music. We had 3/3 thanks to the Grandview. Would recommend to anyone of my friends getting married to seriously consider choosing the Grandview.

The entire process leading up to our wedding was so easy and seamless, and we absolutely loved working with them. Everyone was incredibly kind, patient, helpful, and always a joy to call and email with. They made us feel so comfortable and confident in every step along the way.
On our actual wedding day, our attendant and maitre 'd couldn't have been better. They were so attentive, so organized, knew exactly what they were doing, and made us feel so at ease and able to fully enjoy our day. The rest of the staff was also so incredible, I can't even count how many servers and bartenders went out of their way to congratulate us and give us their best wishes.
We had so many people compliment us on the venue, and stated it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding. Both of us come from big Italian families, so I can't think of a better compliment.
As overwhelming and as stressful as weddings can be, The Grandview made our day so incredible, and one we will cherish forever.

From start to finish the Grandview was very professional, warm and responsive. The General Manager and the sales manager worked with me and made accommodations and modifications as was fitting to make my day perfect. Days later my guests were still talking about the attentive staff, the incredible view and the amazing food. As a bride even when things were occurring ( medical emergency for one of my guests) they handled it do discretely no one knew someone was being attended to by the EMT. The value is worth the price. Look no further than the Grandview for your wedding.

I cannot rant and rave enough about The Grandview. To begin, the venue itself is absolutely stunning. The views of the Hudson River are stellar. We had our wedding in the grand ballroom which is so spacious with a huge dance floor! For the staff, if I could give them 20 stars, I would. Abby and Hayley were so sweet throughout the entire process and helped us so much with everything (we can't thank them enough!). My husband is in the restaurant business so service is very important to him -- he was talking about the service here for the past two weeks. Everyone working is so attentive and nice. The food is SO GOOD!!!! Our families and friends can't stop talking about how delicious all of the food was and how it wasn't like normal "wedding food". I have been dreaming about my wedding since I was small, have watched hundreds of episodes of different wedding shows and The Grandview was better than anything I could have ever imagined. They made our day picture perfect!

They were wonderful to work with, and the venue is gorgeous. All of our guests raved about the food. My only (2) complaints would be- 1) They put the wrong table numbers on our tables, and while I was able to see this prior to guests arriving and they were able to correct the mistake, unfortunately all of my photographers shots of the reception have someone else's table numbers on the tables, and 2) The bridal attendant was new and in training, and barely assisted throughout the day. Other than that, the venue did a wonderful job.

My husband and I had our wedding at The Grandview in November 2022. We had the absolute best time! We are from PA, so at first having a wedding in NY seemed a little scary as we were not close by if we needed to be but from the moment we stepped foot in the Grandview, during our tour, we knew we had to have our wedding there. Staff was organized and extremely friendly/ helpful during the planning process and come day of, staff was professional and exceptional at running the night (extra shout out to wedding attendants Victor & Diamond). The food was delicious and was served hot. Our guests STILL talk about our wedding saying how great the food was and just how much fun they had. We hope one day to be a guest at a wedding held here so we can experience it from the other end, but overall we wish we could do it again. The Grandview was the absolute best choice for our reception hall and we can not thank the staff enough for making our night wonderful. Thank you for a great night!

I don’t even know where to begin! My husband and I got married here on 12/10/22 and it was absolutely the most perfect day! Throughout the whole wedding planning process Ashley , Abby and the whole crew were nothing but amazing! They super responsive and gave great suggestions whenever I asked for them(and trust me I asked a lot)! Our guests couldn’t believe how beautiful the venue was and how amazing the food was! Many guests even said they thought the cocktail hour was the actual meal because of how over the top it was! The decorations for the holidays were stunning. The team made the events go smoothly and guided us through the entire day! So awesome 10/10 would recommend!

Genuinely a 5 star wedding. Beautiful venue, amazing staff, spectacular food. It was the best day of our lives. All of the guests including the grandparents raved how good the food was and how friendly the staff were. We could not have asked for a better wedding. Just about everyone hung outside to watch the beautiful sunset and then returned to the dance floor for the rest of the night. We had about 170 people turn out for the outdoor wedding and it never felt cramped. There was wedding going on indoor as well and we never even noticed. The Grandview staff is everything that has already been said and more. It was so much fun, we are still reliving that day 6 months later. We hope to return one day as guests to see everything happening from a different perspective. It was just such a beautiful day and experience! Would recommend 1000x

I cannot say enough wonderful things about The Grandview. My husband and I knew from our tour of the venue that this was the place we wanted to have our reception. The staff was extremely helpful, attentive, and made all meetings, payment, and overall experience easy and fun. We had the most amazing time at our reception and so did our guests. The food was incredible, our cake and Viennese was show stopping, and the service went above beyond, there truly was not one detail missed. HUGE shout out to Victor who was our Maître'd, he was so attentive and really went the extra mile for us. The Grandview made my husband and I, as well as all of our guests feel very well taken care of and like royalty. My husband and I want to say thank you all so much and we will absolutely be recommending The Grandview to any of our friends looking for venues.

This venue was everything we hoped it would be and more. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day. Victor and Jada were so organized day of and kept everything on time to the minute. We didn’t do a first look and leading up to the ceremony the staff made sure that my soon to be husband didn’t run into me in the hall during pictures. The food was incredible and cocktail hour (though we didn’t get to partake) was complimented over and over. One of our friends was convinced there was no sit down dinner due to the amount of food at cocktail hour. The only “issues” we had were a constant turnover of who we spoke with throughout the planning process but that’s no fault to the venue. We also wish we got more finger foods from cocktail hour to try in our suite instead of the clams and spaghetti/pasta station. The second you book this venue be sure to call the bridge authority and lock in your colors for the night of your wedding. That was also amazing.

Had the perfect day at the Grandview. The staff was very attentive and our big day was seamless. The Grandview takes care of everything. We had a great event coordinator (Taylor!) who was amazing every step of the way during the planning process.

The Grandview was absolutely amazing for our wedding. We couldn’t ask for better. The food was amazing, the staff was attentive, courteous, friendly and went above and beyond with their hospitality. This venue is a must for a wedding along the Hudson, the views are spectacular!

Our wedding was the great day of our lives! The venue was so wonderful and accommodating with everything. We were able to have our music-themed wedding and have tons of creative liberty. I would recommend the Grandview to anyone looking for a beautiful, ocean view venue.

We couldn't be happier to have had our wedding at The Grandview. The staff, no matter who we worked with, was attentive, friendly, and accommodating. Nothing was overlooked. They helped us with all requests big and small, and even let us meet with the pastry chef to create a custom dessert table. The views at The Grandview are second to none, our guests are still talking about it and the pictures we got there are stunning. I can't say enough good things about The Grandview, and if you want to be married outside, the tent is where you have to be. Best views in the Hudson Valley!

We just had our ceremony and reception here in the outdoor tent and it was FANTASTIC! Highly recommend to anyone thinking about booking here.
We had some rain so the ceremony was indoors but with the super high ceilings and beautiful chandeliers, it was still spectacular and the space felt totally different once it was time for the reception.
Great food, impeccable service, kind staff all around, and lots of attention to detail. Our main point of contact was Abby and we were very happy to work with her! We'd do it all again if we could!

The Grandview was absolutely above and beyond our expectations. My son and daughter in law were over the moon with their wedding reception at the Grandview. Food was amazing, everyone was raving. The staff were tremendously accommodating and so very lovely. The views of the Hudson and the outside seating on a gorgeous summer evening made it even more spectacular.
We are so very grateful for the the special day we had and the heartfelt memories that will last for a lifetime.

Incredible experience with everyone at Grandview in the lead-up and on our big day itself. All of our guests were blown away by the food, the setting, and the incredible staff. Taylor was extremely helpful with whatever we needed leading up to the event and the day-of event staff took great care of us on our wedding day. We saw so many other venues along the Hudson, but we couldn't be happier that we chose The Grandview.

I cannot say enough great things about the Grandview! They literally think of everything and they run like a well oiled machine! From the first day we went to tour the Grandview I knew this was the place for me! The outside ballroom is absolutely stunning and if you still have COVID concerns the tent is a perfect option as even if was raining the tent could be open to allow constant fresh air and to take in the beautiful views of the Hudson! The food was fantastic and all our guests raved about it! The service was spot on from the Matre'd to the servers to the bar tenders. They thought of everything! When you book at the Grandview you do not need to worry about hiring a day of coordinator as you are in great hands. We had the best more stress free day and we have the Grandview to thank for that!

Marc and I were absolutely blown away on Friday 6.3.22 with the service we received from your staff. Our Matire'd, Abigail, and our wedding attendant were AMAZING. They made sure we had everything we needed throughout the night. All of our guests and family members had nothing but great things to say about the food, the staff, the bartenders, and the entire wedding itself. It truly was a perfect day, and we were blessed with perfect weather, so we were able to have our ceremony outside. The Grandview was the perfect setting for our wedding.
The after party at Shadows was phenomenal too. It was the perfect vibe for our post wedding celebration. The staff there was incredible as well. The shuttle buses made sure every single one of our guests got back to their hotel after the after party ended and nobody had to take an uber.
Again, thank you so much for all of your help throughout our wedding process. We couldn't have asked for a better venue or a better wedding!

My husband and I got married in December at The Grandview and we cannot recommend it enough. We knew we were in good hands with The Grandview from the moment we booked, We had to postponing our wedding due to COVID and for a stressful situation they made it so easy and seamless. From the views to the staff to the convenience of it all, we couldn’t have asked for a better venue to get married at. Lauren, Mackenzie, Crystal and the entire staff are truly the best. They take care of every little thing the day of. The food is fantastic and there’s full waiter service to the tables making your guests truly be able to relax and enjoy the evening. Our guests were raving about the entire night. If you’re looking for a perfect venue, definitely make sure to check out The Grandview.

We held our wedding at the Grandview October 2021 and it was the best experience! Everything (especially the food and views) was so wonderful that our family and friends have not stopped talking about how amazing the day was. Everyone we worked with was so friendly and helpful, especially considering we had to reschedule our initial wedding day due to covid. We really have to thank Mackenzie (our wedding attendant) and Debbie (our Maitre d') for making the day run so smoothly and stress free!
