Beautiful Venue

We are so glad we chose Novella's as our venue. Bryce was wonderful to work with. He was quick to respond to any question we had. The weather had seemed clear enough for us to have our ceremony outdoors but took a turn just before it was supposed to start. Fortunately, Bryce and his team were able to quickly set up space indoors. Everything turned out beautifully! Food was excellent. All our guests loved it.

My Perfect Wedding

Novella's was the perfect place for my husband and I to get married. We could not be more please with Bryce and his staff. Bryce was very responsive to all of our messages throughout the whole process. He was also extremely flexible while helping us. My husband and I lived in Lake George when we started our wedding process, he allowed us to do a virtual tour before we did one in person. We felt, throughout the whole process, we never felt pressure to do things a specific way. During our wedding, Bryce made sure we were a priority. When we arrived to the wedding venue, he had antipasto set up in the room and champagne. After our ceremony, he made a plate for us from the cocktail party and during dinner he made us plates from the buffet so we could eat first. His bar tenders were amazing and many of our guests were very pleased with them. His venue was the perfect fit for our 115 guests and could have easily fit more. I wish I could get married again to spend more time at Novella's!

Absolutely Perfect Venue

I’m so glad we chose Novella’s for our wedding venue! Bryce and his team were so helpful from the beginning - they made the whole process easy. We opted to go with stations for our menu, and all of our guests raved about the food. The space is beautiful, and of course having two hotels right next to the venue was super convenient. I’d recommend Novella’s 100%.
