Unique New York Wedding Venue Feature: FEAST at Round Hill | Hudson Valley

September 19, 2023

Vivian and Vincent are easily among the happiest couples I have ever met. They wear their hearts on their sleeves, and you can always find them laughing and cracking jokes to get the other one to giggle (which you can even see in their wedding ceremony). They also share a beloved furbaby, who made quite a few adorable appearances during their big day. They’re surrounded by a close-knit group of friends and family who love them dearly (it’s impossible not to), so they wanted a unique venue to make the day feel more like a warm and intimate gathering.

Vivian and Vincent envisioned garden paths lined with colorful blooms for their first look and couple’s portraits followed by an outdoor ceremony with the sunlight filtering down through the trees. FEAST at Round Hill was the perfect fit for them. The private estate sprawls across twelve stunning acres that don their beauty year-round, from spring blooms to fall foliage.

Award-Winning Mansion Wedding Venue in the Hudson Valley

We absolutely loved photographing at this venue! If you’ve never heard of this gem, FEAST at Round Hill is nestled in the idyllic Hudson Valley, just an hour and a half from Manhattan. The historic estate dates back to the early 1800s and has a long-standing history in fine dining and hospitality. In fact, Round Hill was already a popular wedding venue in the 60s and 70s. During those years, the venue was called The Round Hill Restaurant and later Quail’s Hollow Restaurant.

The estate was renovated at the turn of the century and has won countless awards over the years, including The Knot’s Best of Weddings Hall of Fame 2007-2023, Best of Zola Vendor Winner, Here Comes the Guide Best Mansion Wedding Venue, and more. The picturesque venue just keeps getting better and better, especially with the rise of smaller, more intimate weddings. Imagine catching a moment together as the sun sets behind the rolling hills of Hudson Valley. Guests have plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the grounds for cocktail hour. Then, head inside for one of the best meals you’ve ever eaten, crafted by their talented culinary team.

The FEAST at Round Hill Wedding Experience

FEAST at Round Hill is especially accommodating for cultural weddings with multiple events throughout the day. For example, Vivian and Vincent wanted a special, scenic place to host the Chinese Tea Ceremony without feeling rushed or cramped in a small space. The gardens at Round Hill offered a spacious, peaceful setting to fully experience this important part of their day. Younger children could explore and play while family and friends could mix, mingle, and relax between the ceremony and reception. The entire day felt like a breath of fresh air—no rushing and fussing. The day was a heartwarming reunion and celebration, complete with the very best service and delectable food.

If you love the idea of an at-home wedding but want a luxury experience with full-service care and amenities, FEAST at Round Hill will check all your boxes. An experienced Maître D’ will be there from day one to listen to your vision, help you select a package, walk you through the process, and fine-tune all the details. Even better, all package pricing is upfront. Plus, they do not charge a site fee for full-day private access to the grounds. You can choose from a garden ceremony or move things indoors to their gorgeous atrium filled with natural light.

Pssst—FEAST at Round Hill makes a stunning location for bridals or couple’s portraits before your wedding day, too. Don’t forget to put your portraits on display at your wedding!

FEAST at Round Hill All-Inclusive Wedding Packages

From catering and culinary stations to the top-shelf bar and wedding cake, your dining experience is taken care of. Unlike some all-inclusive wedding venues, FEAST offers endless food options. They’ve catered quite a few cultural weddings with international cuisines, including various Asian dishes, African, vegan/vegetarian, Spanish, Latino, Portuguese, Italian, and more. You also can’t go wrong with a traditional American barbeque if you want a backyard get-together. You tell them the ambiance you’re going for, and they’ll make it happen.

Packages also include all rentals, linens, and tableware. Planning your dream wedding truly couldn’t get easier. You deserve to enjoy the process from beginning to end, and FEAST makes that happen.

The incredible team and picturesque setting at FEAST allowed Vivian and Vincent’s love and vibrant personalities to really shine through on their wedding day—which means sweeter memories and phenomenal photos! We enjoyed working with this venue and highly recommend it if you’re looking to step away from the hustle and bustle of the Big Apple for your big day. It’s a short drive upstate, and the views are everything you’d imagine and more. (And if you’re wondering about this venue’s inclusivity, they’re an LGBTQ+-owned business, and you can see a variety of their recent weddings here.)
