On the property
“Having the ceremony inside the reception tent while it rained turned out to be so beautiful, romantic and more intimate.”
What couples highlight
“From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning lake views—the hilltop setting overlooking Keuka Lake is truly breathtaking and makes for an unforgettable backdrop.”
“The food and service went above and beyond our expectations and many guests said it was the best wedding they had ever been to!”
“As you get closer, they send you a book with literally everything you need to bring/do/know when it comes to your wedding day, making planning so easy and as stress free as possible.”
“We have gotten so many texts from guests telling us it was the best wedding they'd ever attended and that they can't stop talking about great the venue was, and neither can we!”
“Chelsey, handles everything besides the food and bar, answering all planning questions, leading the rehearsal, and serving as the day of coordinator.”
From the reviews
Words cannot describe the beautiful day we had at Crispin. From the moment we began communication with Chelsea and Heather, we felt valued and in good hands. Chelsea and Heather are a dream team; you want to have your special day in their hands. Everything went seamlessly.
We cannot say enough good things about Crispin Hill and its incredible owners, Chelsey and Heather. From start to finish, they exceeded every expectation and made our wedding day seamless, beautiful, and unforgettable. Heather is the chef and is exceptional at every part of it.
My husband and I live out of state and were looking for a venue that could do it all for us; we knew coordinating with several different vendors would be difficult. Crispin Hill not only takes care of EVERYTHING, they also have an incredible list of vendors whom they trust and work with closely.
My wife and I got married at Crispin Hill and I cannot imagine doing it anywhere else. We did not hire a wedding planner, so we planned it ourselves, but Chelsey and Heather do a lot of the planning and helped guide us through the decision making process. They provide excellent vendor recommendations.
Getting married at Crispin Hill
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
