  Excellent service

  If I can give this venue more stars I would!! The service provided was exceptional! The food was delicious all the way around. The servers and Kelly, the event manager, catered to our every need and treated our guests like royalty. I was very anxious on how the decor would be displayed and after every meeting with Kelly, I felt at ease and that she would understand my vision. Kelly handled the timing with everything with such ease and flow. She truly made my dream wedding come to life !

  I have one word for this venue- exceptional!

  I had my wedding at the Smoke Rise Village Inn this past November 4, 2023. To say it was more than I dreamed of, would be an understatement. From the moment I arrived at Smoke Rise, I knew it was where I wanted to have my wedding. The grounds and ballroom are beautiful and having our own private patio area was perfect. The stone work and beautiful courtyard gives the entire venue a warm feeling. The catering sales manager, Kelly, was exceptional to work with! She answered every email and phone call promptly. She worked within our budget and made sure we were able to get what we wanted. The food was delicious and the servers and bartenders were so friendly and helpful. Kelly was on site and fully involved the day of my wedding, making sure we were happy and taken care of. The private stone patio was perfect and gave our guests and ourselves a space to grab some fresh air and enjoy the beautiful night. From the ceremony to our sparkler "exit" fun, I could have not asked for a more perfect day!

  Elegant and Romantic!

  We had our wedding ceremony outside and reception in the Ballroom in September 2023. Kelly was exceptionally helpful in the planning and on our Wedding day. The Smoke Rise Village Inn was elegant and rustic, just what we were looking for! We received many compliments on the venue, staff and their delicious 😋 cocktail hour foods, main courses, and the Palermo bakery's cake! Thank you for a wonderful day!

  Smoke Rise Village Inn Wedding was PERFECT

  Our experience with the Smoke Rise Village Inn was wonderful - every aspect of our wedding was perfect and the Inn played a huge role in that. The Catering Manager, Kelly Herchick, was absolutely wonderful to work with. She coordinated with all of our vendors flawlessly. The venue, food and staff were amazing and I can't recommend them enough.

  Wedding September 16 2023

  This venue was everything we wanted and more. Kelly (the coordinator) was amazing, communication was excellent, she was so kind and really listened to us and what we wanted! We got so many compliments on the venue and everyone loved the fact that the banquet hall had a beautiful outdoor terrace as well! It’s really such a pretty spot, it photographed so well, and it had LOTS of spots to take photos too! Also Gloria was a rockstar! Between Kelly and Gloria the day went smoothly, it felt easy, and we had nothing to worry about! My now husband and I did not want to see each other before the ceremony and these ladies really made sure that happened for us. They also calmed both of our nerves as we walked down the aisle. I was so happy to have them all night. The food was excellent and served in abundance. Everyone was full and tipsy and happy which was truly all I wanted. The servers were all so kind and helpful as well. I cannot say enough good things about this venue and its staff. Thank you everyone at Smoke Rise!

  Exceptional

  Smoke Rise is the perfect place to host the wedding of your dreams! Kelly paid attention to every single detail we spoke about and when it came to the day of, she blew us away with how beautiful the venue looked. She was a pleasure to work with, as was everyone else there. Gloria is also great! Randy was very attentive and helped answer any questions we might have had. We have been receiving compliments daily about our wedding. The food was amazing, especially the options during cocktail hour. We were lucky enough to have beautiful weather and get married outside. The grounds of Smoke Rise are exceptionally kept and the wedding ceremony itself was truly beautiful. I could not recommend Smoke Rise enough!

  Wonderful Wedding

  Thank you Smoke Rise Village Inn for a beautiful wedding! Kelly Herchick was amazing from the beginning with planning through the wedding itself. Gloria and the staff were amazing as well. All the guests commented on the wonderful service. The food was outstanding, cocktail hour and dinner! I have been to many weddings where the cocktail hour food was the highlight and dinner was not impressive. So not the case here, everything was delicious!! We would recommend Smoke Rise Village Inn-hands down!

  ,Amazing service, Perfect venue Best wedding!

  We cannot recommend the Smoke Rise Village Inn enough! After our first visit, we walked out in complete agreement that we liked the space, the vibe, and the manager. We did not have one bad thing to say! Although I am a relaxed person, I am very critical of customer service and have fairly high standards. From the start, Randy was extremely professional, organized, responsive, and friendly. He accommodated every request we had and made wedding planning seem almost easy. We did not have a hired wedding planner, just our vision and schedule. Randy ensured that every detail was taken care of--where we walked in, the ceremony set-up, and coordinating with our vendors. Our wedding day went perfectly. Any issues, nothing caused by Smoke Rise, were handled before we even knew anything happened. We had a personal attendant who helped make sure we ate and had the drinks we wanted. All our guests raved about the venue itself, the food (both quantity and quality), and the service. We honestly were blown away by how seamless and extraordinary everything was, and we are so grateful. We had so many guests tell us it was the best wedding they have ever been to. Do not miss this absolute gem - check out Smoke Rise for your wedding!
  
  PS. The WeddingWire pictures do not do the venue justice. (Uploaded a few and our highlight video shows a bit more)

  Unforgettable wedding at Smoke Rise Village Inn

  My now husband Anthony and I were married at Smoke Rise Village Inn on July 16, 2022. We had an unforgettable wedding experience, We were engaged at Smoke Rise Beach in 2020. Due to Covid, we decided to delay our wedding from 2021 to 2022. We are very grateful that we chose Smoke Rise Village Inn for our reception. From the very beginning, Kelly and Randy were exceptional to work with. Choosing the menu was a lot of fun and the food at cocktail hour and dinner was spectacular. At cocktail hour, we had a beautiful heart ice sculpture with our names engraved, a martini bar, and countless stations. A station our guests raved about the most was the sushi station. Our guests loved how the cocktail hour was inside and outside. Any questions that I had, Kelly wrote back immediately which helped ease my nerves as an anxious bride. We had a ten piece band which the venue was able to accommodate as well as a large photo booth. Our guests were able to enjoy themselves indoors and outdoors throughout the wedding. We had 150 guests which was the perfect amount of people for this type of venue. We had a spectacular night that we will never forget. The wedding was a perfect size in which we could greet all of the tables and dance all night. Every expectation and wish was met. I would recommend this venue to anyone who is looking for a beautiful rustic venue that is charming and personalized. We loved how we were the only wedding of the night so we received individualized attention. We hope to visit on our anniversary next year!

  10/16/21 Wedding

  The Smoke Rise Inn is such a beautiful venue for a wedding. We had our wedding recently and it was such a great experience at this location. The servers were excellent, setting up was a breeze, and the food was delicious! I didn't have a wedding planner or day of coordinator however Randy, the manager, was so helpful the day of as well as when it came to planning the wedding. Originally we were supposed to have our wedding 6/12/2020 however due to COVID we had to postpone 5 times. Randy was so accommodating and understanding during such a hard time and we are so happy we chose Smoke Rise to have our wedding.

  Great space for a wedding no matter the time of year!

  Having our wedding at Smokerise was such a great decision! All of our guests commented on how amazing the food was, how great the staff was, and how beautiful the space was! Jordana was amazing at helping us organize our event and everything came together seamlessly the day of! The newly renovated floors in the ballroom space made our wedding pictures look that much more amazing! We had our wedding in January and both the inside and the outside of the property looked beautiful so it is a perfect space year round!

  Wedding of our Dreams!

  We are so glad we chose Smoke Rise Village Inn for our wedding. We immediately felt at home with Randy and Jordana and they were amazing through the entire planning process. The venue is beautiful, inside and outside which was the perfect location for our ceremony. The food was delicious, especially the cocktail hour which our guests raved about. Jordana was so organized and efficient with all the outside vendors and made sure everything was perfect. On our wedding day she was always nearby to be sure my husband and I had everything we needed. I only wish we could do it all over again because the day flew by so quickly!

  Beautiful, Professional, Fantastic Venue!

  We had a Sunday Brunch wedding at Smoke Rise and only 6 weeks to pull it off... Everything went perfectly! We were so happy with our choice to hold our wedding at Smoke Rise. The ceremony was held in the Courtyard and was plenty of space for our 50+ guests. The ballroom was beautifully arranged; Jordana and Randy were very accommodating, excellent communicators and really helped to make our wedding a dream. The cost was reasonable and the quality of the food was excellent. We were very happy with how well everything came together in a very short amount of time. Our guests said this was the best wedding they've been to... ever!
  
  The right venue is everything - I highly recommend Smoke Rise Village Inn for your wedding.

  Look No Further

  My wife and I were married at Smoke Rise Village Inn on 12.31.2018. The entire experience from start to finish was amazing. Three things stood out from the feedback our guests provided: 1) What a unique venue 2) What amazing food 3) The service was terrific.
  
  My wife desired a venue most guests wouldn't be familiar with and would be conducive to a smaller wedding (we had 100 guests and 200 is approximate capacity). I was familiar with Smoke Rise so I brought her to see the inn and it was love at first sight. It is intimate (one wedding at a time), definitely unique (it's an old converted dairy farm), and has lots of charm.
  
  In addition to the fine food and ambiance, one of its greatest attributes is the banquet manager, Kim Caputo. After five minutes of talking to her, it becomes crystal clear that she loves what she does and will treat your special day as if it's her own. From start to finish, Kim was there helping us map out the perfect party, offering useful suggestions, and always answering our questions promptly and accurately. She's a real pro and an amazing asset to the inn.
  
  I would strongly encourage anyone to look at Smoke Rise when deciding where to host their event. Our experience was first rate from start to finish and my wife and I cannot be happier. When you put so much time, money, and effort to throw the best party you can, the best reward, in my opinion, is the feedback from your guests. We have received nothing short of rave reviews and a number of our guests said it was the best wedding reception they've ever attended. We wouldn't haven't gotten such amazing feedback if Smoke Rise didn't deliver and they most certainly did. We can't wait to go back to celebrate our anniversary. Bravo!!!

  Amazing!!!

  We had our wedding yesterday and the reception was held at the Smoke Rise Village Inn. The venue itself is beautiful and cozy. Our guests kept asking us how we found this place and I always responded with Wedding Wire and how we knew this was the venue for us when we met with Kim for the first time. I heard nothing but amazing things from our guests the entire night about how beautiful everything was.
  
  Kim and her staff were nothing short of amazing! Kim worked with us for the past year as we finalized details and planned our special day. She was so sweet and made us feel like we were her own family. Last night her staff were so attentive to us and our guests. The food there is delicious and our guests couldn’t stop raving about how great everything tasted.
  
  Not only do we recommend Smoke Rise, we are excited that there is a restaurant that we can visit on occasion, including on our future wedding anniversaries to look back on the best day of our lives!

  Perfect Event

  From my first communication with Kim, I knew Smoke Rise was for me. Most places I reached out to took long to get back to me or sent back form-type generic emails. When I emailed Smoke Rise I felt like they were responding to me as a person. We planned the entire 150 wedding in 3 months and I do not think that would have been possible without Kim and her flexibility, calming attitude, and go getter way. People are still raving about the event.

  Great service, beautiful venue, perfect day!

  Kim was amazing from the moment we called for info through the day after the wedding. Out of all the venues we looked at, she was the only one who asked our names. You can't beat the price for what you get, it is such a secret gem. I got so many compliments on everything! Thank you Kim! I cannot rave enough about the beauty, service and price!

  Beautiful Venue

  My husband and I would highly recommend the Smoke Rise Inn. Our wedding was beautiful, the staff were pleasant and attentive, and the food was excellent.

  We had our wedding at Smoke Rise, and I could not wait to post a review. Everything was absolutely gorgeous. The venue is beautiful with its rustic feel and amazing staff. Our Maitre D, Kim Caputo, was incredible! THANK YOU, KIM! She worked tirelessly to ensure that everything was done correctly and ran smoothly. She listened to every little detail patiently and fulfilled all of our wishes. Gloria attended to us throughout the entire evening— we were never without food or a drink. I am so glad that we found Smoke Rise!

  I would highly recommend the Smoke Rise Village Inn! My husband and I had our ceremony and reception there a week ago and had a wonderful experience. Kim, Gloria, and all of the staff were friendly, professional, and efficient leading up to and on the day of our wedding. Kim and Gloria thought of every detail and really personalized our wedding to who we are as a couple. I can honestly say I enjoyed every minute of the day because I had complete trust and faith in the staff and their services. The food was absolutely amazing! We received many compliments about the variety and quality. We plan to come back to Smoke Rise to celebrate future milestones as a married couple because it is such a special place to us. The grounds and building are well-kept and beautiful!

  We cant praise this place enough. Every single guest at our wedding had nothing but compliments about our choice of venue. The food was amazing especially the huge cocktail hour ( Sweet potato puffs to die for). The service was also wonderful and professional. The whole ambiance of the Smoke Rise Village Inn was even better than we imagined. We want to thank Kim for helping us put together the wedding of our dreams. We enjoyed every minute of it. Thanks Kim for going above and beyond to make our day truly special,

  We had our wedding ceremony and reception at Smoke Rise Village Inn in October of 2014. My husband and I were looking for a unique wedding venue that didn\'t have that “wedding factory” feel, and somewhere that we could be the only event on site. Smoke Rise was all that and more. What we loved so much about Smoke Rise was the comfortable, warm feeling throughout the venue and the ballroom. We really loved that we had the entire venue and grounds to ourselves which made us feel like it was truly our day. From the first time we toured the grounds, all the way through our food tasting, the last few days of scrambling around for the big day, to the very last moments of our reception, we always felt welcome, comfortable, and at ease with each step of the way. The Inn manager Randy was always very friendly and easy to work with and very quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had. We never received “no” for an answer, and he was always helpful with brainstorming and making sure our wedding was everything we wanted it to be. The day of our wedding, all of the staff was so friendly and accommodating to us and all of our guests. Not to mention the food and drinks were fantastic! We went back for our 1 month wedding anniversary for dinner and were welcomed and treated just the same as on our wedding day by the staff. 5 stars from star to finish!

  Randy and his team at Smoke Rise Village Inn exceeded all expectations my husband and I had for our wedding day. When I found the inn online, I knew I had to see it and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out; it was truly perfect! Right from the start Randy’s calm, easy-going personality put us at ease and we knew we were in good hands. Throughout the whole process he was available to help answer questions and guide us through with his expertise. Not only was it a smooth process and beautiful location, but the food was amazing and all of our guests keep telling us how much they enjoyed both cocktail hour and the main dinners. Another great perk is that you can celebrate your anniversaries at the Inn since it’s a restaurant as well. I 100% recommend this venue to any bride and groom looking for great food, a beautiful location and top notch treatment. I wish I could do it all over again!

  We recently had our Wedding Reception at Smoke Rise Village Inn. The Inn is absolutely beautiful and the food is amazing. Although it is a restaurant/reception venue, the restaurant will be shut down for Weddings. This is a great plus if you are looking for a venue with one Wedding at a time, which is why I was so excited to see the Inn. On the day of our Wedding, Randy and his team were so attentive to every need during the reception. Every question prior to the Wedding was answered within a timely manner. The level of professionalism is top notch. Randy's expertise and knowledge made the entire day run smooth, I never had any doubts. We could not be happier with how the day went! This has become our new favorite restaurant as well! I would highly recommend Smoke Rise Village Inn!
