The Essex Club was beyond exceptional to my husband and I from start to finish. I planned this wedding in 5 weeks and Jessica, the manager, did literally everything in her power to make my day not only happen but made sure it was beyond beautiful! She really went above and beyond from the first day and was extremely attentive and kind throughout the whole process, I cant say enough about her!! Jansi was my bridal attendant and she was with me literally every step of the way that night, I had a huge train and she flawlessly handled it as well as made sure I was taken care of and ok the whole night, she made sure i always had a drink in my hand and always had food on my plate too!! Rob was wonderful as well and helped direct me on the walkout, he dealt with my crazy wedding party very well!The venue itself was so beautiful, Jessica listened to every decorative vision I gave her and executed it! The food was delicious and my guests are still talking about it.All in all I give them a 10 out of 10!!! I would 100% recommend!

I had my wedding at Essex Club on 12/1/23 and cannot stop wishing I was reliving my wedding day just as it was! Everything worked out perfectly and Essex Club played the biggest part in that. From the moment my now husband and I stepped into the venue about a year ago up until our wedding night, Jessica could not have been more helpful, honest, and easy to work with. She was always willing to answer my hundreds of questions and give me an honest opinion. My maitre d, Rob, was the absolute BEST! My husband and family agree. My bridal attendant, Anna, was right beside me any time my bustle was down or my drink was empty. My friends and family all echoed positive sentiment… the food was great, the decor was great, everything came together so beautifully. I can’t recommend the Essex Club and their staff enough. They made our wedding!

The day we walked into Essex and met Jessica the stress release I felt from all our wedding ups and downs so far was amazing. From the moment we met Jessica I knew it was meant to be. Jessica made the entire planning process easy, simple and stress free! The day of the wedding the entire staff was accommodating and so beyond sweet! The maître d’ Rob and my bridal attendant Jansi, made everything go so smoothly the day of and we didn’t have to worry about anything. When my fiancé got there early afternoon (since he was using the bridal suite to get ready) we wanted to add additional candles around our guest book etc for the atmosphere, as soon as he brought it to Robs attention, they added the candles right away and then touched base with us as soon as we got there after the ceremony to make sure everything was perfect before cocktail hour. The night was amazing, everyone can’t stop talking about the food and how beautiful everything was set up! We would not have changed a thing at all! Take a chance on this venue, I’m so glad we ended up here because I couldn’t have imagined our wedding anywhere else.

Jessica and the team at Essex Club created our perfect wedding day! Very easy to work with, affordable, and all around great people. They made the process very simple with helpful guides and vendor recommendations. Jessica answered all of our questions quickly via email, and was always a pleasure to work with. The night of the wedding was seamless. The staff was very attentive and we only heard positive reviews from our guests. In fact, the guests all mentioned how wonderful the food was (made in house at Essex Club). All in all, we are so happy that we chose Essex Club as our venue for our wedding. They made it a perfect day for us.

Oh my god. I don’t think there are really any words that can describe how amazing my wedding was here. All of the vendors were amazing and communicated perfectly. Jessica was so amazing and made planning and everything so easy. She dealt with me constantly emailing her a million and one questions, my guest count changing for 4 days straight. She helped me with everything, and I left her with a list of how I wanted the decorations set up and they exceeded my expectations.Rob made sure everything went so smoothly wedding day, he was constantly communicating with us on what was happening and always made sure we were okay and was always there to answer any questions we had. Such a sweetheart and calmed me down a bunch before my first look.Jancy, my heart. She really was a rockstar, held my dress and veil the entire time while we were taking pictures, she had a whole platter of food ready for us in the bridal suite with our favorite drinks. She always made sure me and my husband had food and drinks during the reception. She even surprised us and gave us a sample platter of all 3 foods we chose.I was so happy with everything and it made my day so memorable. Everyone has been contacting us saying how amazing the wedding was and I cannot thank you all enough.

The moment I walked into the Essex Club I knew that my wedding was going to be there. Starting with Lauren my sales rep and event coordinator, she was such a sweet person during my first visit and took her time to explain everything and answer all my questions. Then Jessica the venue manager, she was as amazing as Lauren. She was professional and very responsive. Lauren and Jessica made my wedding planning feel like a freeze. Going with their petite wedding package (including recommended vendors) made my planning so much easier. All the recommended vendors were amazing and exceeded my expectations. Also, the wedding package is one of the most affordable you will find in New York, and it is totally worthy.Now onto the day of my wedding, Rob the maître d was AMAZING. He took care of everything, and the event flowed without any hiccups. My guests kept talking about how organized the wedding was. And Ana, my bridal attendant also did a great job. Not only did she help me and my husband throughout the night but also helped us with translating from English to Spanish to my parents who do not speak English. Ana and Rob also did an amazing Job at bustling my dress. It was so difficult to do and took some time, but it came out beautiful. I got compliments about the way my dress was bustled during the night. All the staff was amazing. My guests truly enjoyed the food and the drinks. People loved the taco bar for the cocktail hour and the short ribs for our plated dinner. Everything looked classy and amazing, and everybody felt well taken care of. The only regret I have was not going for their regular wedding package for 100 people. I ended up way over the guest count for the petite package which is 50 people and had to pay extra for a few things to accommodate the extra people. Their regular package would have probably been cheaper. Lauren had recommended for this to me, and I wished I listened to her. A piece of advice, listen to what they recommend you. The have been in the wedding business for years and they know better.Finally, a big Thanks to the Essex club for making my planning process stress-free and my wedding day so special!

I had my wedding at the Essex Club on Saturday and it was amazing! They've been doing weddings for an impressive amount of years and it shows. They are a well oiled machine. Everything is organized to ensure that you have zero concerns on your wedding day. Their attention to detail is impressive. They think of everything. My husband and I planned our wedding in a little over 2 months and felt no stress during the planning process. Jessica ensured that we understood everything and told us what we needed to get and what they were taking care of (they take care of almost everything, except for your wedding signs and any add ons you want to bring). Their vendors know the place very well so there's no need for you to stress or go through the craziness that's depicted on wedding sites or by Youtubers. Their all inclusive pricing is the best I've seen from my research. They make the place look great for your big day. Great food! Seamless, effortless, everyone is super knowledgeable. Just listen to them and let go. Your day of attendants take care of everything for you. Our photographer got us to look good and we don't even like pictures 😊. We all had a good time! My husband and I prayed for God to give us a seamless wedding with the perfect venue, (with only 2+ months of planning) and He certainly did. Even the weather (forecasted for thunderstorms) was clear and perfect! Super happy and definitely will recommend!

I just had my daughters bridal shower at The Essex Club. From the second I walked in to look at this venue until the party ended Lauren was absolutely fantastic. She is amazing. So friendly and accommodating and helpful. We had a brunch. The food was so good all of my guests commented that food was delicious. The presentation was perfect. The staff was so super friendly and always smiling and attentive. I have had many parties and I have to say having such a happy vibe from every single person working made an unbelievable experience for all of my guests. People are still talking about the shower. The entire party my matre’d was spot on. Setting up, serving food, helping guests, helping at my flower bar and just coordinating everything in such a warm and friendly way. Everything was perfect. I truly can not say enough.

Our wedding at Essex Club went off without a hitch and our guests had a great time! The level of service and attention to detail from the entire team was above and beyond our expectations. Guests LOVED the cocktail hour and dinner, compliments to the servers and chefs. Special shout out to the team (especially Jessica, Rob and Jancie) for their willingness to help and pivot to our hectic schedule. We knew it was our venue when we met with Jessica on day 1 and she helped us envision what our day would look like. They truly delivered! We would recommend this venue to any bride/groom looking to wed in Long Island. The venue is beautiful but the experience/customer service is what really makes it!

We just had our wedding at the Essex Club and it was A DREAM! We did the full package including photos, cake, limo, and flowers. We just subbed a band for the DJ they would normally provide. Everything was PERFECT. Jessica and Lauren were our point people, and they were on their game. Our Maitre D Rob was the best. Our bridal assistant Cindy was incredible. The servers, bartenders, chef and BOH staff... all 10/10. The food was great! Recommend the shortrib, chick asiago and mahi mains... chicken and waffles / pulled pork apps. It actually poured rain on our special day, but that didn't deter ANYONE, and in fact, it may have even made it more fun. Honestly, I can't imagine it being better. The Essex Club and everyone involved get's our full endorsement. THANK YOU!!!

Essex Club was able to accommodate our dream wedding with only a few months (5) notice. The maitre D, Rob, was a rockstar too. He was hilarious, knowledgeable, helpful, and personable. He even helped us figure out our wedding entrance! The entire staff truly made the day a JOY for us. I couldn’t stop smiling! We had nothing to worry about. We were told the venue was recently renovated before Covid which was such a plus for the price point! The food was delicious (our guests loved it)! This place is truly worth looking into (& booking).

We cannot say enough nice things about the Essex Club. The Sales Manager Jessica was literally a saint the entire wedding planning process. She made our experience great and kept us on track with our planning. She was readily available by call or email and it was reassuring to have someone so experienced and knowledgeable helping us. We are so grateful for her! The Maitre D Rob made sure that our night went exactly how we envisioned it. Even if there were small things that we were stressed about he stepped in and made sure that it was taken care of. It was calming to know that he was there taking care of everything behind the scenes so we could just enjoy our night. The bridal attendant Jansi was so incredibly nice and made sure that I had everything I needed on that day. Whether it was holding my phone or lipstick or reminding me to drink water she made my anxiety about the day decrease significantly.The food was incredible. Not only did it look amazing but it also tasted amazing. We loved that you got to pick different stations for cocktail hour. Our guests raved about the food for quite a while after saying how good and flavorful it was.I’d recommend the Essex Club to anybody! There’s a wonderful team, beautiful venue, and amazing food that is definitely worth checking out. Thank you for making our wedding day dreams come true. It was truly the best day of our lives.

The Essex Club was a magical experience for my wedding (December 2022). From the very first moment I went to look at the Essex Club, I knew that this is where I could see myself having my dream wedding. From the beginning, Jessica was amazing with keeping in communication with me, even before my fiancé and I chose the Essex Club. She was there throughout the whole planning process, answering TONS of my emails and being so prompt with responses when asking her a million different things. The day of the wedding was absolutely an ease and stress-free. Jessica had done an amazing job with all of our decor, making sure everything was meticulously placed, which made the venue look extra special. Rob, our Maitre D', made the day of a breeze. Not only did he go over the timeline with my fiancé, he went over it with me separately to make sure nothing was missed. He was so attentive, I am SO appreciative to have had him there with us the whole night. Jansi, my bridal attendant for the evening, was BEYOND accommodating. Not only was she there to support me with pictures (making sure my veil and dress were in the right space) but when I started to feel very dizzy at one point during our pictures. I was gone and back in 2 minutes flat with Advil and water for me. I am forever grateful to have had her, throughout the night, constantly being there for not only me but for my fiancé. I cannot recommend the Essex Club enough! Not only was it such an amazing experience to have my wedding there, it also was VERY affordable. My husband and I are so thankful to the Essex Club

Essex Club was amazing from start to finish! This venue really deserves more recognition. We booked in June 2020 for August 2022 and everything we were promised upon signing the contract was fulfilled over two years later. Working with Jessica, the sales manager, was a dream. She was always so kind and quick to respond--even with the million questions I'd send her about the smallest details. What really blew me away was that we brought in very minimal decorations (framed childhood photos and some extra fake flowers leftover from my bridal shower) and Jessica laid our stuff out and then filled in the gaps with some decorations of their own like a welcome sign and crate for the entryway and even some small lanterns down the aisle in the outdoor ceremony space. It really added a nice touch and looked so beautiful.Rob and Cole, maître d and captain, were simply lovely and put everyone at ease the day of with their calm presence. They rehearsed the ceremony multiple times with different groups of family and bridal party members while pictures were being taken. We had a guest fall ill suddenly during cocktail hour and spend a large portion of the evening in the bridal suite recovering. We asked Rob to have food and drinks brought to the suite and this was taken care of quickly and without issue.The bridal attendant Jansi was AMAZING and by the end of the night felt like my long lost best friend. She joked that she would be my shadow for the day and every time I turned around she was right there, holding my dress or bringing me water. There was already a sampling of cocktail hour food waiting for us in the bridal suite after the ceremony and she packed up a few of the hot pretzels from the exit station for us before they were all taken.This venue is perfect for couples looking for a beautiful space at an affordable price. I don't see more than 150-175 guests fitting comfortably in the ballroom area without having a small dance floor area, but we had 125 guests and it was a perfect fit. The outdoor ceremony area with the flowers and gazebo is beautiful and our guests raved about the food served during cocktail hour and dinner. The only thing I hope for the future of this venue is a larger bridal suite, or at least an en suite bathroom! Once guests started to arrive I had to stay in the suite since it's located just off the lobby. You won't be disappointed if you trust Essex Club and their staff with your special day!

Any question or concerns we had, she was there to help almost instantly. The night of we had Rob as our Maitre’d and he was amazing. He kept the night fun, light and organized. His attention to detail and personality made you feel like your wedding day was in safe hands. Our bridal attendant, Jansi was more than we can ask for. She was there for absolutely anything. Kept us eating and hydrated so we were ready to go at all points. She talked us through any concerns and really just made us feel supported. Other than the people who helped us have this magical day, the hall on its own is wonderful. You walk in and it’s beautiful. When it’s set up for your day, it is elegant, warm and very inviting. The outside is just as magical as all our pictures were taken by the tree lines, falling leaves, and gazebo. Gorgeous. The food was outstanding. Serving sizes were more than enough and our guests loved the options. With a vegan and vegetarian menu always available, that was crucial for us because of some food restrictions in the family. As a whole, this was a magical place for a party. There is nothing we would’ve changed about our day and we owe that to all the staff as Essex for accompanying us

The Essex club is simply the best. Jessica worked with me for several months to ensure I booked my perfect date. I know no one is lee does that! Unlike so many other wedding locations I visited, there are no hidden fees or gimmicks to worry about. Communication is clear, concise and timely. She offered me so much wise guidance every single time! The vendors that are part of the packages are incredible. I worked with Dalsmier and they stayed within my budget and brought the most beautiful fresh flowers & decor. Park avenue offered a competitive package and captured our day!I could not have planned my wedding in only two months, without Jessica and the team. The day of, I had a few scares (from vendors not in the package) and Jessica came right in to handle my nerves and make my wedding day just perfect. I loved my incredibly sweet and knowledgeable bridal attendant and super helpful Maitre D. I had 7 children in my wedding party and he knew just how to handle it all. The venue is just gorgeous and my guests loved the food and drinks. If you are looking for a beautiful venue, with incredible staff and no hassle communication, Essex is your place.

Our best man’s entrance had some technical issues due to some proper he had and Rob ran to the rescue to make sure he was able to do his entrance as needed. We also got informed by family how amazing the staff was. Very informative, gave great directions on where guests needed to go or be. There was no complaint insight. Our only regret was not extending the party. Bartenders took care of our guests, there was literally not a single staff member that didn’t contribute to how amazing the day was.

My son got married at the Essex Club on 9/10/2022. The weather was perfect and Jessica the manager and Rob the maitre d’ along with the efficient staff handled all the details to make their wedding day a memorable day.

My wedding was AWESOME! Thanks to the staff at Essex club. The food was great, Jessica was great and very responsive with all the questions and emails I sent. Rob was great in ensuring that the day went as scheduled and Yanzi was phenomenal (my mom calls her BFF). That is how great everyone at Essex Club was. Finding this venue was truly a blessing, the package deal that includes DJ, Limo, Floral, Cake and Photography is cost effective. I could not have found a better place to host our wedding at. I wish I could do it again soon that is how great it was. Thank you Essex!

I am still in awe, of the experience that I had a the Essex Club. We had our Family Reunion at the Essex Club on Sunday, July 10. EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT!! The Food was Amazing!From the first day, that I met Lauren, I knew that I was going to book my Reunion with the Essex Club. Her warm Smile and personal approach, assured me that everything was going to be perfect. Lauren aims to accommodate you and make you feel so comfortable, that just meeting with her calms your every anxiety. During my planning of the Reunion, My aunt passed away. My aunt was one of our Elders, that we were Celebrating. I called Lauren with the news and she instantly, without hesitation started addressing my concerns. Not once did I call or email her, and she didn’t respond within the hour. I am so Grateful to her. This Young Lady is a True Angel. The only way, that I can describe her is “ABOVE AMAZING”.The Essex Club, has acquired a “True Gem”. She is so young, with a Heart of Gold. She takes care of your catering experience, like she was doing it for herself. Lauren is a one of a kind.Lauren couldn’t be there on the date of my event. But like I said, she takes her Catering personal. She left me with Rob. What a Joy!! Rob was there, for whatever and whenever we needed him. He catered to our every need. He even helped us, with an issue on our Charter Bus. To say that Rob was AMAZING, is an UNDERSTATEMENT.Thank you Lauren, from the bottom of my Heart for Everything and Making Our Family Reunion The Celebration of a Lifetime.Thank you Rob, for putting the finishing touches on our Reunion and making it A Memory that will last Forever.

I had my wedding at The Essex Club in Sept 2021 and it was a perfect day. I want to shout out 3 people. Jessica the sales manager worked with me from the very beginning, and was super responsive to my dozens (And dozens!) of emails and questions. Day of, Rob the maitre'd and Jansi the bridal attendant were so incredibly kind and attentive and helpful, and Jessica was there too and also helping getting last minute things set up as well. Rob and Jansi made sure I had everything I need and even thought of some things I might need/want before I could even ask. All my guests commented on how beautiful the venue was - with the 3 distinct spots - outside for the ceremony, the beautiful indoor/outdoor space for the cocktail hour, and the indoor reception space. And multiple people told me it was the best food they've had at a wedding! It was the perfect day and I can't thank the staff at the venue enough.

Lessing’s is truly an amazing company, Essex being newly renovated is such a hidden gem! Jessica is so good at her job and was wonderful to communicate with. She was also a fellow covid bride and was very open and honest during the process. We had the whole place to ourselves on the 17th and so we went there early to take photos and do the first look. We came back after the church for more photos and then the cocktail hour started. Unfortunately, my grandma fell walking out the front steps during the cocktail hour, she wasn’t drinking yet but was talking to others while walking down them. She was rushed to the hospital where she was treated for a head wound and came back (like the trooper she is). Essex was great about it and checked in on her periodically; I do hope they get a railing installed because they are narrow steps with no railing so believe it’s a hazard. My mom is working with them now regarding the hospital bills since they do have insurance for these types of situations. They called a few days after to check up on her. There also was a bartender that was very new, like second day on the job that was very rude to guests and got drunk at my own wedding. My dad mentioned it the next day and they confirmed he was fired. Other than those situations, they were awesome and kept the day running smoothly.

Jessica was exceptional during this crazy time of planning. Our wedding needed to be rescheduled due to COVID and working with Jessica literally made it 10x easier and stress free. Leading up to the wedding Jessica always made sure to update me appropriately. Rob the Maître d’ the day of the wedding was just as great! Mother Nature decided to throw a small wrench into our plans by raining 30 mins before our outdoor ceremony. Before I could even panic every single worker in the hall was already on top of moving all decor inside. We barely skipped a beat. My guests had no idea about the switch. I would absolutely recommend The Essex Club for any event. Thank you to off staff but most importantly Jessica, Rob, Jancy (Bridal attendant) and Emily. Soon before the ceremony started I realized I had forgot my garter in the hotel. Jancy was so great she literally created one for me with what materials we had and nobody even realized when it was time foe the garter throw. I can’t thank everyone enough who helped us. My wedding day was complexly flawless and it because of this amazing team!!

My now husband and I were married at another Lessings property but when the opportunity arose to have our rehearsal luncheon at Essex, we immediately said yes and are so glad we did! Jessica was great to work with, and was super communicative and response leading up to the day. When arriving, a whole set-up was ready for us in the bridal suite, including a custom sign and a mimosa station! We were catered to from that moment on; we and all of our guests had a drink in their hand at all times, any food adjustments or requests were met, and Jessica and Rob were on top of keeping the day flowing and organized. The grounds are absolutely stunning (all of our guests were saying that they felt like they were in a Hallmark movie), and the food was delicious. If they went to such lengths for a rehearsal, I can only imagine what a wedding would be like!

All the vendors we used were lessings house - photographer dj and florist. They were top notch. The ceremony was on site and was just beautiful. You will not be sorry if you choose the Essex !

Unbelievable service for my husband's 40th birthday party. We loved how easy it was to plan the event of 160 guests (including children) with the staff at Brentwood Country club. 1.) Food-Guests all commented on how well everything tasted. Favorite being the penne ala vodka and their style of JERK chicken. The jerk chicken was not on the regular menu but I was told they can make some special request items. I am so glad I took the chance and had the special request Jerk chicken on our buffet menu without doing a food tasting. Highly recommend if you are a foodie and have guests who will like spicy food.2) Ambiance--I was blown away at how everything looked once we had the table linen and centerpieces on. Then going back for the actual event and seeing the cocktail hour food setup and then the organization of the dinner buffet. Side note, I had requested special attention to tables with kids. I am so pleased the Maitre' d followed instructions and made sure kids orders were taken ahead of buffet opening for the adults. 3.) Overall--I wish if i can do a yearly party. It was so much fun getting our friends and family together. The country club was the perfect setting (1 party at a time). The kids ran around and we did not have to worry about too many strangers. The staff was so helpful and accommodating of all requests. I did have guests tell me how much they liked the place and would definitely think to have an event there.

This venue was a true diamond in the rough. My husband and I had a limited budget and were paying for our own wedding. We visited Brentwood CC because of their all inclusive package that was very reasonable. From that point on our experience was nothing but pleasant. They worked with us on dates (my brother is active military and we weren’t sure if he would be able to make the wedding before his deployment), and were just so accommodating no matter what the issue. However, I could have never for seen just how amazing Kathy, Julio, and the entire staff really is. The day of our wedding, myself, my mother and all of the bridesmaids were struck by a car that ran a stop sign on our way to the venue. It was a violent crash that sent my maid of honor, one bridesmaid, four jr. bridesmaids, and two flower girls to the emergency room. Needless to say when myself and the rest of my bridal party made it to the country club we were all a mess. Bruised, upset, and shaken, we were all totally out of it. Because of the understanding, caring, and ingenuity of the staff, they gave us as much time as we needed and even decided to start our cocktail hour before the ceremony to give us more time to allow those in the hospital to make it. Ultimately, the rest of my bridal party was able to be discharged and made it for the ceremony. We limped and hobbled our way down the aisle and my husband and I had the small, intimate ceremony that we had pictured followed by a great party with amazing food. None of it would have been possible without the hard work and dedication of the staff there. I want to particularly mention Kathy, Julio, and Jancey. Without them my wedding wouldn’t have happened. Or if it did, it would not have been as happy of an occasion as it turned out to be. Words can’t express how grateful I am that we decided on Brentwood country club for our wedding day.

It was never strictly business, and he went above and beyond to accommodate our very odd family dynamic and answered every crazy question we had.

In addition, the Sweet 16/ Quinceañera package was well tailored to our guests of teens, family and friends. Finally, after shopping around at different venues, we determined we were going to get the most for our dollars at the Brentwood Country Club. Kathy, Tio and the entire staff accommodated our special requests. Nothing was impossible for them. Their attention, care and love towards our daughter and guests confirmed to us that we made the best decision selecting the Brentwood Country Club for our daughter’s quinceañera. Just like the Brentwood Country Club holds a special place in our hearts, it now holds a special place in our daughter’s heart. Thank you for making her dreams come true and being part of our special day.

Don't let the address fool you -- the Brentwood Country Club was a fantastic choice for our wedding! Tio (the manager) could not have been more accommodating. Special requests? No problem. Last minute changes? No problem! By the time you're done with your event, Tio will be your best friend!The room is beautiful, with a fireplace in the back corner (great spot for photos!), and a beautiful view onto a patio with gazebo (more photos!).The fact that this venue only hosts one event at a time is a huge selling point. When you're there, you are the sole focus of the staff's attention. Everyone went out of their way to make sure our day was exactly what we wanted.

Our wedding at Brentwood Country Club was absolutely perfect in every way! I initially chose this venue because of its unique charm! I love the arched windows, the ivy climbing the building, the cute balcony, and the fireplace in the ballroom. --Tio was truly a delight to work with starting from the very beginning of our planning! We went over each aspect of the day in detail. Not only were we given everything I had hoped for, Tio suggested a number of additional small details that helped our wedding stand out as well. He genuinely wants his brides to be happy and it shows in how thoroughly he plans each aspect of your event. The actual day of our wedding went very smoothly. There was clearly great communication between Tio and my vendors because the event was seamless. --The food was fabulous as well! We chose to have a buffet and we were so impressed with the quantity of food that we got to choose for our menu. We had numerous compliments on how delicious everything was and how big of a spread we offered. I ate my food cold (as most brides do haha) and it still tasted great! --Another reflection of great management is the staff and I must say they were remarkable! While the entire team was a pleasure to work with, one staff member who really stood out to me was Jansi. Jansi is the kind of woman every bride dreams about having by her side on such an important day. She started her day by arranging all of my decorations so beautifully throughout the venue. She put so much time and effort into making every detail perfect, and even suggested other wonderful ideas along the way. This is just one of the many things Jansi did for us, including making sure we had plenty of food. Jansi went above and beyond all night making sure we had a perfect wedding day and did it with a huge smile on her face!--I cannot speak enough praise of how wonderful our wedding was at Brentwood Country Club and that is all thanks to Tio and his team. We are so grateful to be able to look back on our wedding day with nothing but happy memories for many years to come.

My husband and I got Married back in February. I cannot express enough on what an amazing, beautiful and wonderful job Kathy, Tio and their staff did for us on our wedding day. From the moment my husband and I sat with Kathy we had no worries. The attention to every detail was second to none. From the decor which was absalutely beautiful, food and drinks which was delicious, but most of all was their warm, kind and attentiveness to my husband and I as well as our guest. I would like to thank them for the beautiful and wonderful memories we will always have of our special day.

We had our wedding here on September 29th, 2017.It was an amazing experience. Everything was absolutely beautiful. Service was phenomenal. Tio is a great guy, you can tell he cares and has been in the business for many years. He's very thoughtful and really makes the effort to give you exactly what I you are looking for. The bridal attendent Kathy was there for my wife, and cleaned her dress when she got some mud on it from taking photos outside. She even put food in the bridal suite for us during cocktail hour, knowing how difficult it is for the bride and groom to actually eat during such a busy event.There are many places to take great photos. The food was top notch, our guests were raving about it.All of the vendors in the package deal did great jobs. I would recommend this venue to anyone. I have no regrets. I have to again stress that the venue is beautiful. The outside ceremony was so nice, and the main ballroom looked amazing lit up. A friend is having their wedding here in 2018 and I can't wait to return as a guest.

A Diamond on the Green!!My husband & I checked out the Brentwood Country Club after a friend of mine booked her son’s bar mitzvah. We were having a problem finding a venue that would accommodate a small wedding reception. Upon walking in & talking with Tio we fell in love with this venue. When you sit down with Tio you are more than just a client. Tio treated us like family. He worked with our crazy schedules & made our wedding dreams come to life. I think Tio was more upset than me when we had to have our ceremony inside due to the weather. He was very accommodating with all our needs & crazy requests, as well as the needs of our guests. He has a great staff working with him; including our bridal attendant Jess & bartender Al. A great time was had by all from the moment the ceremony began till the last dance!!! There was more than enough food, drinks, & dancing. We would recommend Brentwood CC in a heartbeat & have even recommended them to the receptionist at our dental office.

Brentwood Country Club gave us the perfect wedding we were hoping for. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful and the staff was extremely helpful the months leading up to the wedding, and especially the day of. From the cocktail hour, all the way to the cutting of the cake, Brentwood CC was a perfect fit. Our family and friends are still raving about how nicely everything was run and how pretty everything looked inside and outside. We would highly recommend having your wedding or any other event at Brentwood.

We selected Brentwood Country Club after a long time viewing other vendors and comparing price points. Brentwood came with a package which already included all of the basics you would need for wedding, and the relationship Tio has with his vendors made everything easier. Tio was a pleasure throughout the entire process, and Kathy (the bridal attendant) was also phenomenal. They helped make the entire process so easy, even when the ceremony had to be moved inside because of bad weather. Brentwood was absolutely beautiful and photographed wonderfully. We went to a food trial and were not disappointed on our big day. Tio and Kathy made sure that we were able to eat something (things got hectic) and the open bar had everyone coming back for more. Overall we loved our experience with Brentwood from beginning to finish, and all of our guests enjoyed the indoor wedding, the reception space, and the food!

My husband and I selected the BCC as the venue for our reception and we could not be more pleased! We started our search over 2 years ago, and found BCC to have the best price and amenities for our money. The banquet manager, Sammy, and our maitre d, Josh, were fantastic. They fulfilled our every request. \rThis hall is cozy, elegant and comfortable without too much glitz. The hall contracts with several other vendors in a package rate. So while the entire wedding (and I do mean entire- from gowns to gifts) ran us under the $15,000 mark- which is unheard of on Long Island. \rWe had our ceremony and reception there. The cocktail hour was fantastic- my groom even ran out of the bridal suite to partake in the mashed potato bar that he'd been dreaming about since the ink dried on the contracts. The amount of food BCC offers is amazing. We opted for an upgrade of asparagus wrapped in prosciutto and the option of filet mignon for our guests. I have a very severe fish/shellfish allergy and BCC was extremely accommodating in making my wedding completely fish free. \rWe had many out of town guests arriving with the groom's family. Since we were taking pictures before the ceremony, but I still didn't want the guests to see me before, Sammy arranged for our out of towners to relax in the bar area with coffe & tea service while they awaited the big moment. \rThe staff took extra care in handling all of our things. My mother made our centerpieces- they had to be turned on, and the staff was able to set everything up beautifully. \rI can't thank them enough. I'm still hearing from relatives about how delicious the food was, and so very much of it.

The entire staff at the country club was amazing! Everything went off without a hitch!! The maitre d' was amazing he made sure everythign ran smoothly. From bring us cocktail hour while taking pictures to making sure all the guests were satisfied! The bridal attendant was a blessing!! During the wedding my mother had stepped on my bussel and broke it, but the bridal attendant was right there with a sewing kit and fixed it right away!! All the food was delicious and served perfect temperature, no complaints about cold food!! The planning was also a breeze, Sam made it so easy to make appointments and come in whenever we had the time to do so. The grounds were spectacular and perfect for pictures!! They keep the place neat and clean, an absolute must see for any future bride to be!!!

I had a small budget for my wedding so this fit the bill. Everything you need is included in a package they offer which takes a lot of pressure and stress off of you. \rI would urge you to NOT use the photographer in this package. The person you deal with is not knowledgeable, not flexible and definitely does not have the right attitude to be a salesman or represent a company in any way. There was not enough pictures included, the photographer spent more time eating than taking pictures. Please if you go with BCC do not use their photographer. \rThe bakery included in the package I really recommend - they were pleasant and the cake was delicious!\rThe DJ was terrific and did a good job of keeping everyone on their feet the whole night.\rThe florist(Ken & Eva's) was OK but this is another vendor I wouldn't use if possible. The centerpieces looked sparse and just not pretty. \rThe food was very good although I understand from my guests that sometimes they didn't get it at the same time as other guests and had to ask for it.\rMy biggest disappointment was that the servers stole some of my favors. Try to not let them get their hands on your favors if they are in the least bit valuable (lotto cards, etc) because in the end they are high schools kids and obviously the manager doesn't watch close enough.\rI also didnt have any cake left at the end which was odd, especially since my parents table claim they never even got a slice! When I called to ask for the left over cake I was told they will remake the top tier which is great and all but I had to call to find this out. \rAll in all, I'd recommend them but be careful - all wedding vendors are shady and despite my satisfaction with them (given my budget) they are no exception.

It was exactly what we wanted, on our wedding day we were surrounded by our closest friends & family, It was the most beautiful day, almost everything went wrong, but we had the best time! Our family &friends still tell us what a great time they had and how great our wedding was!;The Photographer was horrible, she cut my arm, dress or bouquet out of almost every picture. She never took a picture of our rings and invitaion for our album. The Florist promised me the most beautiful flowers, the mens roses were dead before the reception started (they were brown in our photos) and all of the special ordered purple Japanese fighting fish that were supposed to go in the floral centerpieces dies because of the cold water ( he put the fish in ice cold water, moments before we were walking down the aisle, we were scooping them out of the bowls!) The DJ couldn't get the music right when I walked down the aisle(no one heard it outside)But the hall and the staff itself was FANTASTIC! They held my hand through it all and helped out were ever they could.
