A Full-Day Wedding Experience
From the moment you arrive, everything you need is right here. Your guests can easily walk between two nearby hotels and the venue, eliminating any transportation concerns. Start with your first look at our Terrace, then exchange vows on the Blue Stone Patio, followed by a memorable reception in our grand ballroom. Every step flows smoothly, ensuring your day is as effortless as it is beautiful.
Your Ceremony at Novellas
Our Blue Stone Patio is the ideal place for your ceremony. This outdoor space is set up for up to 150 guests, complete with white chairs and a customizable pergola to match your theme. The area is equipped with a sound system to ensure your vows and music are clear for all to hear. Afterward, your guests will enjoy a smooth transition to the cocktail hour, where they can mingle on one of our two outdoor patios.
A Reception Full of Celebration
The reception takes place in our elegant ballroom, which features a dance floor, chandeliers, and a fully stocked bar. Planning a formal dinner or a casual cocktail party? We provide everything needed to create a lively and memorable celebration. We’ve designed the ballroom to be versatile, with a lighting and sound system to match the atmosphere you envision.
Culinary Excellence for Your Guests
Food is a major highlight at Novellas. Chef Michael Garnero, a seasoned CIA-trained chef, leads our kitchen, ensuring each dish is crafted with care. From passed hors d'oeuvres like Pollo Asado Mini Tacos and Fried Calamari to plated meals like Herb & Panko Salmon or Tenderloin Filet, we offer a variety of options to satisfy every taste. Our menu also includes vegetarian and vegan choices, as well as premium upgrades like oysters and lamb chops.
The Bridal Suite
Our spacious bridal suite is one of the largest in the Hudson Valley, accommodating up to 30 people. It comes complete with a private bathroom, makeup vanities, mirrors, and a separate entrance, making it the perfect space for you and your bridal party to relax and get ready. Complimentary drinks such as mimosas and prosecco are available to set the mood.
After the Celebration
Once your reception ends, the celebration doesn’t have to stop. Our patios remain open for an after-party, where your guests can unwind by the fire pit. Afterward, they can head back to the nearby hotels to rest for the night. We also offer options for extending the reception or having a casual after-party in the foyer.
