Great Wedding Venue!

We had our wedding at the Terrace this past weekend, November 4th. This was the perfect venue for a late fall wedding. From the beautiful view of the mohawk, well kept grounds, and lighting accents at night, we could not have asked for a more picturesque location.

Taylor, the venue coordinator, was a pleasure to work with and ensured that our vision came to life. she worked with us throughout our planning process and was very accommodating to our requests. We were able to customize our menu the way we wanted and within our price range.

The staff made us, the bride and groom, feel so cared for and allowed us to truly enjoy our night. Pat, our dedicated staff member, was absolutely wonderful and made sure we had everything we needed. Our guests had nothing but good things to say about the food and complemented the staff endlessly. Overall, we highly recommend the Terrace for your wedding as they made our special day such a wonderful experience!

The views are amazing and Taylor is great at what she does!

The views EVERYWHERE on this property are stunning. From our rehearsal dinner in the Mohawk Room at Max410, our two night stay at Homewood Suites, and our ceremony and reception at the Terrace, we were surrounded by the beautiful and articulately maintained buildings and grounds. Working with Taylor for our ceremony and reception was easy; she truly wants to create the night you envision—from simple to extravagant, she’s definitely done it all and has recommendations for everything without being pushy. Taylor and her staff do the setup and cleanup for you on the day of, and Taylor has so much included in the price that we never really felt stressed. The food is SO GOOD, once we had our tasting we were stoked to share with our friends and family on our big day. Throughout our wedding night we heard nothing but good things about the bartenders, and every staff member was smiling all night! We very much recommend Taylor and her team for ANY event—you won’t be disappointed!!

Amazing Wedding Experience

I just got married here on 05/13/2023. We had the most amazing wedding! The ballroom looked amazing and the food, let me tell you about the food! Mike Fortin recently took over at head/executive chef and the food was unbelievable! Every single one of our guests complimented how fantastic the food was. It was simply delicious. The event staff was so attentive and made our wedding run so smooth. I would recommend The Terrace and Max410 at the Waters Edge over and over! If you are planning a wedding in the near future put this place on your list
