5 STARS! My daughter's wedding was fabulous!
My daughter's wedding was fabulous! Rebecca was so patient with us and the many questions we had over the months and weekend of the wedding. The staff was wonderful and my daughter's ceremony and reception went smoothly. The food was excellent as was the service. A month later and we are still getting compliments on the venue, food, and entire experience from our guests. I would highly recommend Chauncey to anyone planning an event.

5 STARS - Becca was always professional and responsive...

I found Chauncey on The Knot and they were my first venue tour and left a long impression. After seeing several venues and discussing logistics, my now husband and I settled on Chauncey. We were hoping for a Saturday, but settled on Sunday. After a couple of months , we met our new venue coordinator, Becca, who is amazing. She was always professional and responsive to any questions we had. The food was good for the rehearsal dinner and the reception dinner. They were very accommodating of last minute decisions like adding a memory table. Everything went so smoothly that I barely had to worry. All of the little details were displayed just as I envisioned. The suite we used was large and spacious. One of our guests did have a problem with their air conditioner not working, but were able to move to a different room and slept comfortably. I didn't use the Laurie House, but the outside was beautiful. The Brodsky Gallery was a great location for everyone to mingle and meet post ceremony and the empanadas were delicious. We also elected a donut wall through Chauncey versus a cake through their preferred bakery. The pork roll and cheese was delicious as well. If I had to do it all over again, I would definitely choose Chauncey again as our wedding venue!

5 STARS!! Finding this venue was a dream come true.

Finding this venue was a dream come true. It has the outdoor setting that we were looking for and it’s a place surrounded by beautiful scenery and quiet. We had the pleasure of working with Rebecca as our coordinator and she was amazing. Effective communication through the whole process and responded to every question we had. On the wedding day, she made sure we didn’t have to do anything with decor and was on top of things which was very helpful. Definitely recommend this venue!

5 Stars! Staff was fantastic and our guests loved the venue.

Rebecca was a pleasure to work with while planning our wedding--always quick to respond and provide details we needed for planning. The staff was fantastic and our guests loved the venue and open bar. We received a plethora of complements towards our bar tender and our personal server made it even easier to enjoy our reception. The cocktail hour and reception were professionally set up, the food was amazing, and the cake from Cramer bakery was delicious. The flexibility in add ons was great too when we didn't know the number of guests we would have as we selected a venue!

Jack and Val's Wedding Reception on July 13, 2024

Thank you again for everything!
Our guests couldn’t say enough about the beautiful venue and the incredible staff. Someone was always asking if we needed anything. The staff were very relaxed and friendly. Their service was impeccable. You, Daniel, and Maria get special shout outs from my heart for making Friday night and all day Saturday so magical. What to say about the food? I have never experienced such flavors and presentation on such a large scale. How did your chef and staff manage it? I felt like I was eating a meal prepared for a small dinner party instead of 180 people. Truly remarkable! Several guests remarked it was the best wedding they ever attended. I realize your facility and the Laurie house are gems, but it was the personal touch you and your team provided that transformed a wedding into a wonder! I will always be a grateful MOG
