I can only say positive things about Brianne, Kelsey and the Diamond Mills team. Thank you for making our wedding a night to remember. Everything flowed so smoothly and the staff were very kind and professional. We were so relieved knowing the Diamond Mills was an all-inclusive venue and the food was delicious. It was a bonus that we were able to rent out the top rooms to host our Tea Ceremony prior to our ceremony/reception. For our ceremony and reception, we chose the ballroom, and our guests were shocked when they walked out onto the patio for our ceremony to see a waterfall. Thank you Diamond Mills for making our night run so smoothly and making my wedding vision come true! Reviewed on 07-12-2023

We had our wedding in June at the Saugerties Steamboat Co. location and it was everything we could have wanted. Brienne and Klaudia were fantastic to work with and were with us every step of the way, helping us to organize, plan and execute our wedding. The venue itself was was gorgeous and when some rain changed course right before our wedding, the Diamond Mills team was supremely efficient at getting everything and everyone moved inside for our ceremony (the team is seriously great at executing a rain plan). In addition, the culinary team at Blackbarn knocked our socks off, and were very accommodating with some of the requests we had to make for guests’ dietary restrictions. All-in-all, we’re so happy we got married here and will treasure those memories forever. Reviewed on 27-11-2023

I truly cannot put into words just how amazing Diamond Mills is!! From start to finish Brianne & her entire team, along with the Blackbarn staff went above and beyond to make our wedding special. Brianne has a gift for what she does and no matter the question, she always had an answer or knew exactly where to go to find it. You have the flexibility of different options within the venue to pick from for your wedding and we went with Blackbarn for our reception, best decision! The space is so customizable and it allowed us to transform it into the wedding of our dreams. 100000% recommend!!!! Reviewed on 06-11-2023

Brianne, Klaudia and the entire staff at Diamond Mills was fantastic! Brianne and Klaudia helped make our day the most memorable!

Take us back!! We had such a memorable day for our wedding and Diamond Mills was a big reason why. We planned our entire wedding (200 people) in all of three months and Brianne worked so closely with us from start to finish to make sure the day was perfect. She was very responsive, consultative when we needed advice, and quick to action. We got married in the ballroom and it was a beautiful venue. The food was also excellent. It was way above what you would expect for a wedding and all of our guests had nothing but positive things to say. They loved it! We would highly recommend Diamond Mills to anyone looking for the perfect wedding venue! Reviewed on 03-11-2023

Diamond Mills was absolutely stunning. The natural beauty of the waterfall from the Esopus River makes for a breathtaking back drop. The food is all made fresh to order for your guests. We really valued that they have a season menu so we weren't just choosing the typical wedding steak, fish, vegetarian options. The Wedding team is very helpful for all your questions. They make the process easy with on site coordination. If you don't have the budget for a planner you will still feel supported by the venue team specifically Brianne because she is the best! She has many years of experience under her belt so is happy to give tips and options based on what she has dealt with. She also is just the sweetest and most flexible human. .The getting ready space at the hotel is gorgeous and everyone is so helpful. Terry at the Hotel helped us with booking rooms and making sure our guests were comfortable. We also hosted the farewell brunch and the waiters were all professional and friendly! They helped us use our flowers from the wedding and put them on the tables for decor!DREAM WEEKEND. Reviewed on 02-10-2023

I wish we could go back and do it again! Bri and Kelsey were amazing. They were there for us every step of the way! We chose to get married on the terrace, overlooking the waterfall. The food is probably the best wedding food I have ever had and you get so many options! From start to finish it was the most perfect day. I have no complaints or \"do overs\" (only to relive the day!) Many of our guests said it was the best wedding they have ever been to and the amazing staff at Diamond Mills were a huge part of that.

Kiteri Camacho(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-10-2022 The staff, especially Brianne and Kelsey, were absolutely fantastic to work with. From day one with each of them it was evident that they are pros in their field and know what needs to be done and how to do it. It was wonderful to work with them and watch the conversations we'd had discussing what we envisioned come to life before our eyes on our special day. The day as a whole was perfect, I wouldn't change a thing, and a big part of that was Diamond Mills. It started with the wedding parties getting ready there before going to the location of the ceremony (off premises). It was a beautiful foggy morning and with the waterfall outside it felt and looked straight out of a fairytale. The getting ready pictures came out beautifully in both rooms upstairs and the first look photos with my family on the deck of the ballroom are some of my (bride) personal favorites from the day.The food was amazing! The staff and space were exquisite and it all felt so lovely leading up to and the whole of the special day. Once the day began we didn't have to worry about anything, Brianne and Kelsey and their staff took care of everything. From the band getting set, the cake being delivered, to everything in between. If anything went wrong we weren't privy to it as everything seemed to go on without a hitch. The unveiling of the reception area after cocktail hour was completed was such a magical touch. The windows and deck were crowd favorites. Our guests have commented time and time again since that day, that it was the most fun reception at one of the most beautiful venues they'd ever been too. We couldn't agree more and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a space. They do a beautiful and professional job that results in being able to enjoy your special event without any outside concerns. We are looking very forward to visiting on our one year anniversary and reliving the magic as much as we can. Reviewed on 20-03-2023

From minute one we all knew Diamond Mills was the perfect venue for the wedding. After meeting Brianne and Kelsey we were certain this was THE place! Every detail was tended to in a punctual, professional manner and my kids fell in love with the venue and its beauty upon seeing it, too. The entire staff deserves kudos for a job well done. Brianne and Kelsey helped me with every aspect of the planning and always calmed me when I was unsure or pointed me in the right direction when I needed guidance. The venue has the unique combination of unsurpassed natural beauty, elegance, charm, location and convenience. We also required a venue that could accommodate a fairly large number of guests. Diamond Mills fit the bill on all counts. The hotel, Saugerties Steamboat Co., the Tavern and the ball room worked for us and all our weekend events. The rave reviews continue to come in months after the event. Absolutely the most wonderful setting and place for a wedding. Kelsey, Brianne and the whole staff made Emily and Josh's wedding simply perfect in every way and eternally memorable. I give them my highest and most heartfelt recommendation.

We met Brianne first and although we had expressed interest in the Boathouse, she took us on a detailed tour of the two sites at the main venue. We ultimately decided on the Boathouse because it fit our rustic theme perfectly. From there we started working with Kelsey who was so amazing to work with! Everyone ways amazing at Diamond Mills and the Boathouse! Brianne and Kelsey knew all the great spots to take photos! We did our first look by the waterfall and stopped traffic on the bridge leading to the Boathouse because we were told everyone who gets married at Diamond Mills has to take a photo of the bridge!

We had a creative vision, with lots of ideas that we wanted to bring to life. Brianne always greeted these with openness and positivity, trying to figure out how she could make them happen, rather than saying no.

She even had our favorite pumpkin beers ready for us after the ceremony - such a lovely surprise! The venue was everything we were hoping for: the courtyard where the ceremony took place was beautiful and doubled as a perfect outdoor hangout area during the reception, complete with a firepit.

We were married at DM on Saturday November 13th 2021 after working with them for around 30 months (what a time lol!). From our initial meeting with Brianne, we were in love with the space and how amazing and helpful she was. DM was the first venue we looked at and after looking at three others that weekend we knew DM was the perfect spot. Just from how knowledgeable and how friendly Brianne was and how she anticipated questions we didn’t even know to ask! As we were traveling from out of state, I loved the fact that everything could be in the exact same location. The Venue, Hotel and Tavern being so close sold it for me, who doesn’t want to be able to just walk over to the ceremony instead of having to figure out timing or travel.We were one of the wonderful couples who had to postpone due to Covid and never at any point did we have an issue dealing with DM. At every point Brianne and Bethany were so helpful and so caring in dealing with the problems many of their couples faced. We had our tasting during the point of not knowing if we would postpone or not and they worked with us. My MIL was actually there and thought Brianne and Bethany were our friends from just how lovely they were to talk to! The wait was worth it because our day was incredible!! Even planning through a pandemic and through distance it was never a hassle. I asked the most random questions and was always given a timely and helpful response, it was such a pleasure every time I had to communicate with someone at DM.The space is absolutely amazing from our initial arrival at the Hotel everyone was in love with the view of the falls. The rooms are gorgeous, the ballroom is spectacular, the staircase was incredible for pictures. Everything came together wonderfully even though we had to move our ceremony inside due to rain. I was worried since I had loved the outside terrace, but the inside ceremony was so intimate and beautiful I think I loved it even more than our original plan.The staff, oh my goodness, the staff is amazing! We had never been to a wedding where so many people complimented on how amazing the staff were! Seriously every server and bartender I interacted with I was amazed with how helpful and caring each of them were. We knew we had loved Bethany and Brianne, but to know that each and every member of the staff and the banquet manager, Ryan, were just as lovely and amazing to deal with as they were made me so relieved and happy that we had chosen DM. The food… oh boy don’t get me started on how amazing the pumpkin ravioli is! We had our tasting in July of 2020 and I dreamt of the food since then. Our cake was amazing! Cocktail hour was great, everything was so good and wonderful. One of our groomsmen was a chef for years and he was insanely impressed by the mashed potatoes!Every single detail was perfect. Every part of the process of wedding planning with DM was stress free. I loved the homework packets and checklists that they gave us, it was so easy and helpful in making everything come together. They were amazing in creating the most amazing wedding for us. If you are looking for the most amazing venue, I would absolutely recommend DM. Everything was absolutely perfect. Everyone was amazing.

Taylor P(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 23-10-2021 WOW! Diamond Mills is absolutely worth the five star rating. Our wedding was on 10/23/2021 so all the details are fresh in my mind. I will start by saying that our original wedding date was May 8th, 2021, but due to covid, we had to push it back, which looking back was a win-win for us. The venue at Diamond Mills is situated right on the Esopus creek and during the fall, you can see the leaves changing, Our pictures came our beautifully at such a gorgeous venue. Secondly, Bethany and Brianne are Heaven-sent. Literally every single question I had was answered so efficiently via email or phone. Bethany was always accessible and always kind. I'm sure I was overwhelming her with questions and concerns in particular about covid precautions, but she never showed any frustration. The point is...planning a wedding is not easy in general, but with Bethany and Brianne, it IS easy! I truly admire their work ethic and I'm so thankful for every thing they did for us. At our rehearsal dinner and the wedding =, we had guests comment on how well-run the entire event was. We even had friends there who were getting married elsewhere a couple of weeks after us and the first words out of their mouths were, \"I hope our event coordinator is as amazing as Bethany!\". The attention to detail had me feeling cool as a cucumber on my wedding day, when in reality, I am usually one to be anxious. Bethany and Brianne utilize a \"homework packet\" that makes sure that everything is set up the way you want it on the day of your wedding. I knew going into it that we were all on the same page, including the vendors. Another reason why I loved having our wedding at Diamond Mills is because it is right in the village of Saugerties and close in proximity to many other hotels if you have a lot of guests coming from out of town. Bethany and Brianne can definitely suggest hotels, shuttle companies, and other vendors as they have worked with many and are extremely familiar with the area. We had our wedding in the Grand Ballroom, which is a beautiful room and can be decorated any which way you choose. Though we decided on the ballroom, we also checked out the Tavern and the Steamboat and I loved both. Diamond Mills can work for any style wedding for that reason. The food was INCREDIBLE. Our guests were blown away and so was I. I know that often times, brides and grooms miss out on the food because we are so busy chatting with guests, but there was a server there who let me know that he would personally make sure I got every single hors d'oeuvre and he did not dissappoint! Lastly, the rooms are just gorgeous and we stayed in the tower suite after the wedding. It was easily the nicest hotel room I have ever had the pleasure of staying it - plus, the view was breathtaking! I just felt so cared for every step of the way and I cannot explain how much that meant to me. It was a beautiful experience every step of the way. Bethany is such an asset and perfect for her role at Diamond Mills. I would also have to say the same about Brianne and Ryan as well. These ladies are on top of their game! If you are looking for a beautiful wedding in the Hudson Valley, then the Diamond Mills is definitely your place! Love them and can't wait to head back for our 1 year anniversary!

Matt Sabini(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-09-2021 My wife and I got married a month ago and had our reception at Diamond Mills. We couldn’t be happier with the way everything turned out! The building is beautiful and the view of the bridge/river is amazing and made for some really great pictures!Our guests were blown away by how good all of the food was, which was no surprise. We went for two tastings and it was honestly so hard to make final menu choices because everything was so good!! I am a big hockey fan and I asked if they could make a custom Stanley Cup wedding cake. Not only did they agree to do it but they did an awesome job and it came out amazing. I can’t say enough how amazing Brianne and Bethany were. We had to cancel twice because of Covid and they were there for us for all of the ups and downs. They are both so sweet and kind and truly a pleasure to work with. Bethany must have answered a thousand emails from us over the last two years and she was always very prompt, thorough and super helpful! She always has a smile on her face and she was a calming presence when the Covid stress got overwhelming. She made everything go smoothly on the wedding day. I can’t say enough how much we loved working with her and how great she is at her job!!Our experience at DM was overwhelmingly positive and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone who is looking for a wedding venue!

Haley A(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 03-10-2021 I don't even know where to begin with Diamond Mills. DM was maybe the third venue we considered and saw after we got engaged and it was instantly the obvious choice. Being from Saugerties, this was the favorable option as far as being close to home. My husband and I both agreed that Diamond Mills would be the perfect venue, but it wasn't until the planning process that we truly saw the worth and value in what we'd chosen.Bethany and Brianne are the backbone of a wedding at Diamond Mills, and if they aren't the strongest backbone you'll ever find!! I don't know how Bethany does it - she fielded and responded to e-mails from me consistently - usually riddled with questions or worry - and she did it with such grace. Having her there the day of was an absolute blessing and pleasure. When it came time for her to leave at the end of the night I didn't even want her to! I'd rather she stayed and joined the fun! The beauty of Diamond Mills is above and beyond, but the operations and the ebb and flow of everything truly stands out and will leave a mark on our wedding day memories. The food was fantastic, as expected, and we kept the tavern bar open after our reception for people which was a huge hit! The bartender was incredible and the option to continue the fun in a more intimate way at the end of the night was perfect. We stayed at the Hotel that night, as well, which was incredible and the front desk receptionist that night, Sara, was an angel! I could go on and on and I want to, but I'm afraid I'll get carried away. All in all, we've been wishing to go back all week. Diamond Mills is the place for sure! Reviewed on 10-10-2021
Katelyn Crinieri(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-05-2021 This review is so overdue, but we had the BEST, most magical wedding day and we credit so much of that to Diamond Mills. We met with Brianne in 2020 (the weekend before the world shut down) and were immediately impressed with the organization and attention to detail. Brianne made us feel like we were the only couple she was planning for. After touring a few other venues we decided that Diamond Mills had everything we needed and they really set the bar high. We took a chance in an unpredictable world and set the date for 2021. Bethany & Brianne did a wonderful job keeping us updated as we navigated a rollercoaster of added and dropped Covid regulations for the year leading up to our big day. We are so thankful to say that by the time May 30th rolled around we were able to have the most perfect day. I can't even brag about Bethany enough for her day-of assistance. We made a game day decision to relocate the whole ceremony inside due to rain and she perfectly re-decorated the new space. Then she hand-crafted some extra boutonnieres on the spot, while also making sure both groom and bridal parties had sufficient bar snacks. She was everywhere! But I could really brag about all of the staff. Numerous guests raved that the bartender memorized everyone's drink order after just one visit (110 guests), custodians helped us pack up the next day, the security guard helped us find some lost cell phones at 5am. The entire Diamond Mills staff just lives hospitality!So incredibly thankful for these ladies on our best day. Our over the top happiness is evident in every photo. Reviewed on 28-09-2021

Bethany, one of the venue coordinators, was so wonderful to work with - her patience, constant communication, positive attitude and helpfulness (she knows all the best restaurants/bars/local vendors!) really helped us get through all the ups and downs of planning a wedding over the past 1.5 years. Bethany & Brianne guided us through every aspect of the wedding planning and helped make it as simple and streamlined as possible with organized excel sheets.We had our rehearsal dinner at the Steamboat Saugerties Co. with dinner, live music, and lawn games on the waterfront under the string lights. Our wedding day in the ballroom was more beautiful than we even imagined (many guests told us it was the most beautiful wedding location they've ever been to), and we never once felt rushed or out of the loop with the wedding day timeline. The event manager, Ryan, was so attentive and did an amazing job of coordinating both parties after-hours. The after party in the Tavern next door was the perfect way to end the night with more music, food and drinks, and a staff that could handle a big crowd!We loved the convenience of having our families and close friends stay at the hotel and we received glowing reviews from all of our guests about the rooms.

We were able to have an intimate ceremony in October 2020 with our immediate family at Saugerties Steamboat, followed by our planned reception at Diamond Mills in July 2021. Throughout the entire process, Brianne and Bethany were absolutely amazing. From making sure the short rib we loved could still be on the menu a year after we had planned to finding the perfect beer for our signature cocktail, they went out of their way to make our day amazing. The venue itself was outstanding: the view of the river, the ballroom that opens to the outside, and the tavern for Sunday brunch; we simply couldn't have asked for more.

During this stressful time, Bethany and Brianne were there every step of the way, providing updates and working with us to ensure our wedding day would be as special as we envisioned pre-COVID19. Bethany and Brie make wedding planning fun! Everything from our DJ to florist came highly recommended from these two. The connections that they've made with photographers, florists, DJs, bridal shops, etc. makes planning a wedding so easy. We've reached out to several DJs and photographers - each one knew and loved Bethany and Brie. This detail is often overlooked, but so crucial as it made us as a couple feel confident that everything would go smoothly, and it did! We knew our wedding day was going to be beautiful, but we had no idea how fun it would be! The day was filled with endless delicious (top-notch) food and beverages, music and dancing. Brie and Bethany not only accommodated all our needs, but went above and beyond with all requests. At last minute we hired a caricaturist (highly recommend this!) and they both jumped right in making sure all accommodations were met.

This was not the case thanks to Bethany and Brianne at Diamond Mills Hotel. They supported us as a couple from day 1 and worked with us every step of the way. We ended up having to push our wedding date and then cut down our guest list to have a more intimate ceremony because after all that planning we just wanted to be married. They helped to ease the difficulties by having conversations and providing us with a variety of creative options to make our wedding dreams come true. The wedding day was extremely smooth and everything I ever imagined. The attention to detail and making sure we had everything the way we wanted it was impeccable.

Also, Bethany worked seamlessly with our vendors (we used their recommended vendors - Cynthia Starr Photography, Jade DJ Entertainment, and Cherry Brandy Design - highly recommend them all!)The day of our October wedding, it rained... but it did not spoil our day at all. If anything, everyone worked even harder to make up for the rain. We chose to rent a tent and heaters so that we could still have our ceremony outside. I’m so glad we did. Our pictures still capture the bridge and waterfall, exactly as we wanted, and our guests stayed dry and warm. Luckily it stopped raining later in the night so we were able to get an outdoor photo. Our guests were so impressed by the beauty of Diamond Mills. The breathtaking waterfall, grand staircase, and open spaces photograph beautifully and provide plenty of space for all of the guests. The bathrooms are huge and so nice (way better than anywhere else I’ve been)! You don’t want your guests spending the night waiting in the bathroom. Our fall details looked gorgeous is their neutrally decorated ballroom. I also loved that the bridal suite and boardroom are upstairs and away from guest traffic. The food was delicious! So many people ordered chicken parm, which the groom loved! Most wedding cakes are dry and tasteless, but our cake was sooo good. I really wanted to eat the top layer when we came home (I didn’t!). Multiple people have told us how much they enjoyed their dinner and actually ate the cake!Overall, in addition to us, our guests had an amazing time and keep telling us that we had the best wedding they’ve been to.

We can’t wait to come back for our anniversary next year, and we love giving recommendations to friends getting married in the area! Our only criticism is for the Hotel and the Tavern, which have separate management from the wedding venue team. While the food is great, the service at the Tavern is incredibly slow. We had heard this before going and hoped for the best, but everyone was right. It took far too long for anyone to even approach our table, and we’re very patient people! The service at the hotel was not very accommodating when it came to our hotel block. My father in law booked his hotel rooms for Friday and Saturday night when we first set our date. Somehow they messed up the reservation and they booked him independently for Friday night and then for Saturday night. When he called the hotel the week before the wedding to make sure his reservation was set, they realized the mistake and were somehow unable to adjust it. He had to check out the morning of the wedding from his Friday night stay and then check back in again to stay Saturday night. This was the last thing he needed to be worrying about on the day of his son’s wedding, and they made no effort to resolve the issue. We were very disappointed in the lack of service and professionalism on such a special day, especially for a very important part of our wedding.But I want to end this on a high note. Despite the criticism for the Tavern and Hotel, we are so happy with how our wedding went, and will continue to sing the praises of Bethany, Brianne, and the whole events team - we’re always going to be your biggest fans!

They were so flexible with everything, they arranged our decorations for us and made everything look better than we ever could have imagined. It was also incredible because even though many others have been married their before they allowed us to put our own touches on things and made us feel so special that it felt as though our wedding was so unique. The staff all around was incredible from not just the event coordinators but also the waiters, bussers, bartenders and chefs. The food was absolutely incredible from the appetizers to the cheese spread to the outstanding entrees and of course the delicious cake.

I strongly believe that the day of my wedding was so stress-free because of these two! I really had nothing to worry about during the months leading up to the wedding and the day of! The waitstaff was also amazing. Our guests cannot stop talking the service they received during our wedding. They all rave about how nice the waiters were and how delicious their meals were. One aspect that stood out to our guests the most was how friendly and quick the bartenders were. With a guest total of 135 fond drinkers, there was never any lines at the bar. Our guests also still talk about how our red velvet wedding cake was one of the best cakes they have ever tasted! Everything left to Diamond Mills to handle was simply done incredibly on their part. My husband and I couldn't be happier with service we received here. We would highly recommend this venue to anyone! Reviewed on 29-10-2019

Brianne gave us the tour and we knew right away that Diamond Mills was the venue for us. From there we were in touch with Bethany who was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was our wedding coordinator and was professional, patient, kind, helpful, and extremely responsive. Bethany and her team set up the venue perfectly.

We could not have asked for anything more between all the support from the wedding planners and the way the day went perfectly we were so pleased.

Andrew Burns(groom)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 04-10-2019 It’s hard when you’re in it to realize how great your wedding is. Especially when the grooms job is to focus on the bride. Every guest has told me since our wedding it was one of the best they have ever been too. I think it’s just a combination of everything. Most places do one thing very well. Diamond Mills does everything well. And Bethany, the event coordinator, deserves a promotion. You’re in very good hands from day one. Reviewed on 12-10-2019
Caitlin Houlihan(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-06-2019 Choosing Diamond Mills as our wedding location was the best decision we ever made as a couple! From the very beginning of the planning process, Bethany and Brianne were friendly, attentive, and accommodating for the vision we had for our big day. We loved the outdoor ceremony space on the back terrace that flowed into an inside/outside cocktail hour and finished with a beautiful reception in the ballroom. We also wanted a venue where we would be the only wedding in that specific part of the site so we wouldn’t have to share bathrooms, hallways, etc. The space was truly ours. In addition to its perfect Hudson Valley location, we were drawn to Diamond Mill’s package & food offerings as we knew that a big cocktail hour was important to us. We settled on the Diamond Package which gave us the best offerings of high-quality food, in-person action stations, personalized signature cocktails, top shelf spirits, and excellent customer service – our guests were blown away and raved about how great it was! The reception dinner choices, cake, and Viennese table were out of this world. The bacon wrapped filet with crab meat was the best meal of my life – and yes, as the bride, I ate dinner! We also appreciated the following aspects of this location: convenient and abundant parking for guests and shuttle buses, the upstairs bridal suite which served as a pre-wedding wedding party room and a quiet escape for my husband and I during the actual event, beautiful indoor ceremony location options (if needed), and the beautiful bathrooms! It may be silly, but we’ve been to too many events where guests are sharing toiletries and waiting in line for bathrooms with guests of other events. I could even fit in the stalls with my dress! We can’t thank Bethany, Brianne, and their team enough! Reviewed on 11-10-2019

After meeting with a Bethany we stopped looking at other venues and booked our date! The whole experience from start to finish was beyond pleasant. Bethany and Brianne were so helpful with all of our needs. They were easy to get in touch with and responded to all of our emails quickly. The day of the wedding everything was set up perfectly. The waterfall and bridge view were breathtaking. The service was excellent and all of our guest could not stop talking about how amazing the food is. It’s very rare to see every plate cleared at a wedding, but at Diamond Mills the food is so good you can’t stop. We were told from the beginning something always goes wrong and to just let go and enjoy the day, fortunately absolutely nothing went wrong, we had the most pleasant and perfect wedding.

We had the reception at Diamond Mills and the experience couldn't have been better or easier. The venue is a really beautiful place - our guests loved taking pictures on the patio with the beautiful waterfall and the creek in the background. Moreover, Bethany and Brianne were instrumental in making our wedding run as smoothly as possible. Even though they must coordinate several events throughout the course of the year, they made us feel like our wedding was a priority and really helped us every step of the way. It made planning a wedding for 150 people way, way easier, and for that alone I would highly recommend Diamond Mills as a great place to host an event.

Jordan Akre(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 23-08-2019 Diamond Mills was the best choice . We live near Beacon Newburgh and DM was by far the most affordable ! We’ve spoken to several guests at our wedding and usually guests say oh the venue was beautiful but food wasn’t great etc . But Diamond Mills blows everything out of the water . I promise your guests will love everything about this venue because ours can’t stop talking about it STILL ! I will be honest , we had a little hiccup in the beginning with room blocks because they were transitioning between staff but DM did everything and more to make the situation right with us ! Our wedding coordinator was Bethany and OMG ! Give that girl a raise she was absolutely perfect , I didn’t worry about one single thing on the day of my wedding and trust me there were a lot of dynamics to worry about lol . I honestly cannot suggest this venue enough ! Everything about them was perfect they were so respectful , polite , friendly just really the package deal ! I’m also going to add because I couldn’t find info on this when I was searching but please give your servers a little something extra ! They are super hard workers especially at DM and it literally would make their night I’m sure . I know your spending a lot but a little extra thought goes a long way and I know this because Diamond Mills really put extra thought into my whole wedding and I truly believe they did that because they wanted too not because they had too !!

From our first meeting, my husband and I were confident this would be our venue. They have a beautiful ceremony and reception space, attached tavern and restaurant, and hotel rooms -- really convenient for our guests who were traveling. Their rates and options are clear cut and reasonable - they had a wonderful book with everything outlined clearly and they either stuck to that information or gave us improved options! Brianne was a pleasure to work with initially; after touring the venue and speaking with her once we booked it! From then on, Bethany was our contact person and day-of coordinator and was truly a dream to work with. She's bubbly and friendly, but more importantly, knows what she's doing and is extremely competent and professional. When my husband and I had any ideas we got an immediate \"Yes, sure, we can do that!\" Everything was just easy! On the actual wedding day, everything ran smoothly. Brianne and Bethany and the rest of the Diamond Mills team coordinated with our vendors, taking care of everything behind the scenes. I am a micro-manager by nature, but this day I felt completely comfortable surrendering all control to the wonderful group of professionals at Diamond Mills.

Other things I appreciated about our experience with Diamond Mills, and why I would recommend it: The venue is so adaptable to the size of your wedding. Whether you want a cozy, intimate reception or a big, loud one, they have the space or they can scale it down. The food is exceptional. From the simplest menu selections to the most elaborate, their offerings are unique, delicious, and presented beautifully (I’m still dreaming about the short rib). The hotel is beautiful, comfortable, and so convenient. The bathroom floors are heated! Our guests loved staying there. The Tavern was also a perfect location for our rehearsal dinner, and again the menu was so customizable. The selections all sounded so great, it was hard to narrow it down.As I now know from experience: your wedding WILL fly by. Nothing can prepare you for how quickly the weekend/the day goes, so remember that nothing is more valuable than your time. Spend as much of it as you can enjoying your wedding.

When we were looking for our venue we toured several places and we were met with the same scripted speech from everyone- none of them made us feel unique or special (and let's be honest, when it comes to your wedding you want it to be exactly that) until we met with Brianne. She made us feel so comfortable, patiently gave us a tour while we asked lots of questions and took lots of pictures, and showed us how many things could be customized to suit our wishes. She was quick to respond to follow up emails and sent us an enthusiastic congratulations when we booked our date. We knew that this was the perfect place for us. Leading up to the wedding, working with Bethany was dream. She is incredibly organized, attentive to detail, and professional. Bethany was in constant communication with us. She never seemed overwhelmed or bothered by our questions and requests and always got back to us with a quick reply. We presented several challenges as we booked both the Tavern and the Steamboat Company for our special day, only to complicate it by having it in the middle of winter. The team was on it! They made sure fireplaces were lit, heat was turned up, and coats were checked. They worked hard to set up our decor- we didn't need much, the venues are already gorgeous on their own- and make sure everything was perfect. There was not a single moment where I felt stressed or worried about everything getting set up how we wanted it. During the reception, Bethany did a great job at keeping everything on schedule. Dinner was amazing, the cake came out perfect, and we really got to enjoy our wedding the way it should be- not focused on the timeline and making sure our guests were being attended to. We could trust that that was all being done for us.Bethany is one of the most genuine people I have had the pleasure of working with. I could not recommend Diamond Mills enough.
