Valentino's was absolutely beautiful for our wedding, we had an amazing time! Maria is great to work with, she can seem frazzled at times but really accommodated us well and gave us a great buffet and open bar at a reasonable price. The staff were great, one bartender was bad but another was really incredible, accommodated our guests and substituted seamlessly if they didn't have exactly what was asked for. They made sure us and our wedding party were taken care of. They had dinner served quickly and everything was delicious. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a beautiful wedding!!

We had our wedding here in November and I cannot believe how smoothly it went. I did not have to worry about a thing all night. Chuck and Maria were so wonderful to me, as were the rest of the staff at Valentino's. Professionalism seems to be the utmost importance to them. The food, ugh! We chose to have family style, which I do not regret. We ordered some typical Utica foods (riggies, greens), while also having some options for staple items, like a wonderful pork loin roast. There was not one thing that tasted bad. We opted for the open bar and had no problems with this all evening. Everything was so clean and tidy. I am so happy with how beautiful our photos turned out at Valentino's. Maria was always willing to meet with me. I probably came down the Valentino's 4 or 5 different times before the wedding to make sure everything was correct! Even a few days before the wedding when our rental company had some issues with getting flooded, Maria and her staff ironed and tied every bow on the chairs. I couldn't believe how much they helped us! I have nothing but positive things to say about Valentino's, but I think my pictures speak for themselves. Book your reception with them! You will not regret it.

We had our wedding reception at Valentino's Banquet Hall on New Year's Eve and it was AMAZING! The rooms are so beautiful and magical and created a perfect setting to ring in the new year, with all our guests! The food is outstanding, and so beautifully presented. We had a family style dinner and the menu was so diverse and delicious, there was something for everyone! Maria, Charles and their staff catered to us and our guests and not one moment wasn't executed perfectly, from the specialty cocktails named after our new last name, to the spacious marble dance floor where we created so many memories-- I cannot recommend Valentino's enough!

Maria...I cannot say enough about her, her staff and the overall professionalism of the wedding venue. Maria went above and beyond for our wedding day, making it magical and one we'll always remember. Her attention to detail, communication and overall professionalism made our day seem less and go on without a hitch. Food was amazing and guests near and far were very impressed with how Maria and her staff were not only in constant communication with the bridal party but guests as well. Valentino's comes highly recommended if you are looking for a hassle free, fun, accommodating venue for your next event. Thank you so much for making our day one to remember forever.

I had my wedding in September of 2014 at Valentino's. Maria is the best! She's so welcoming and professional as is her staff. The venue was beautiful, the food was delicious, the prices were reasonable and Maria and her staff were most helpful with the stressful details of wedding planning. While I was looking for a place with outdoor photography options, I absolutely fell in love with the beautiful ballroom and couldn't have our reception anywhere else. Valentino's is just down the street from a golf course where we stopped for pictures and further up Oneida street there's a beautiful park in the town of Sauquoit. Four months ago when I was searching for a baby shower location, Maria was the first person I contacted. Her prices hadn't changed and neither did her hospitality. We were treated like family at Valentino's.

I had my wedding at Valentino's on July 1st (in my area this is when the huge flood happened, a ton of rain!!). Maria kept everything proffessional and my wedding was set perfectly and on time. I had an amazing time and so did all of my guests. It was very beautiful and I couldn't have asked for a better time. Love the venue, love the staff, and love everything about Valentino's. Highly recommended for any event ♡

My son and daughter in law had their wedding at this venue. Not only did the owner change her prices two days before the wedding, but then told them the photographer they had was not dressed appropriately. One of her waiters was drinking during my sons and daughter in law's wedding. I could smell it on his breath every time he came to the table. I wouldn't have this venue for any event. Very unprofessional. The owner added more stress on my son and his new wife that was not necessary.

Maria of Valentinos Banquet Hall did an awesome job with our recent wedding. she is very friendly and easy to work with, willing to do whatever it takes to make you happy. the space is lovely, with a beautiful chandelier, fireplace and marble dance floor! another plus is that she does have a good ceremony space as well as lovely reception area for those of us who will not be using a church, so ceremony flowed well right into the reception. the food is good, and in addition to having some decor to rent, she also has the connections to find you whatever else you need for a good price. i had my heart set on silver lame chair bows but didnt know how to get them, so she had somebody get them for me. we were also at a loss for a JoP, but she even had one of those up her sleeve too!! for a beautiful wedding on any budget, this is the best one in central new york, and maria bent over backward to see that we were happy, and we would call her again.

;The owner of the reception venue is extremely rude and unprofessional. We had two occasions prior to the wedding where she indicated that she was losing money due to us not having an open bar. She made us both extremely upset two days prior to our wedding day due to her attitude. If you are an average couple with an average budget do not reserve Valentino's because all the owner cares about is her profit.
