I cannot say enough things about the columns, 5 star service. My husband and I got married 9.15.23 the entire process from beginning to end was so simple it made choosing the columns and easy yes. They really take pride in making there couples happy, our guests are still talking about our wedding; some of the comments we continue to hear are how amazing the food was how incredible the service was and how beautiful the venue was! Our wedding was an absolute dream. I already can’t wait to have more events there!

I am so beyond happy that my husband and I chose to get married at The Columns. We got married on Sunday, October 1st, and had the best experience! Jessica helped us with planning everything, from the seating chart and signature cocktail, to setting up decor and making sure my dress looked perfect before I walked down the aisle! This place is the biggest bang for your buck! The outdoor ceremony space is meticulously kept, the inside was beautifully decorated, and the staff was amazing all through the night! The food was amazing, and very accommodating to all types of food allergies/dietary restrictions. They even had chicken fingers and french fries set up in a highchair for our 2-year-old flower girl! I cannot say enough amazing things about this venue and the people that run it. Our day was utterly perfect thanks to them!

The Columns banquets is by far the best experience I have ever had in regards to accommodations, professionalism, and responsiveness. This banquet is family owned which I love. Everyone in the family made sure to make our night magical! They went above and beyond with everything and I felt 0 stress with all the logistics. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for an event space. As for the price, it was very reasonable; especially for the amenities they provided! Finally, the space had a luxurious feel to it with big chandeliers beautiful cream color scheme. The outside was also extremely beautiful and well taken care of. They had fountains, fire pits, all kinds of flowers and trees and of course they had columns to take pictures! LoVe ❤️ Love ❤️ Love ❤️

Jessica was great throughout the whole process of looking at their venue to the final big day, she worked with me to get exactly what I wanted. There were a few hiccups that we worked through but overall a great place for a wedding.

I can’t rave enough about The Columns. We are beyond happy we decided to book them for our wedding venue. So communicative, attentive, accommodating & the packages to choose from are reasonably priced! Everything you can imagine for a wedding is included or you are able to add on! I had no worries leading up to the day or day of as Jessica was SO easy to work with & made sure everything was perfect. The staff set up and took down decor I provided. The staff was ON POINT when it came to making sure my husband and I were well taken care of between drinks, food or anything we needed all night. Jade the coordinator was amazing, she brought platters of drinks and appetizers to the wedding party as we took pictures for cocktail hour. The grounds are so beautiful, you don’t even need to add your own flowers or decor. truly a 12 out of 5 star experience. Thank you Jessica, Jade & all staff!!!

I can't say enough how much we LOVE this place. The food is OUTSTANDING!! You will not find better food in WNY at a wedding venue I guarantee. We had so many compliments!! Jessica was awesome to work with and answered all of my questions quickly. She made sure I was happy and was there day of to assist. Jade is adorable and such an amazing captain. She made me feel so important and prioritized all of my needs above anything which calmed me. John is the best!! We all loved him! The grounds are gorgeous and the owner himself was on hand and even brought my husband a beer. If you don't look here it is seriously your loss. I want a second wedding just to do it again!!!

So glad we went with the columns. They made planning my wedding so easy. Basically didn’t have to worry about anything except for showing up. They were on top of everything leading up to it and the day of. Everyone raved about the food and they were obsessed with the to-go boxes. Jessica helped keep guests at bay when we were trying to eat dinner. It was everything I could have asked for and more. I would recommend to everyone. I want to go back just to enjoy another meal

I had my bridal shower at The Columns yesterday and it was perfect. The staff was so accommodating with needing to postpone twice during COVID. They were always so responsive and empathetic to a difficult situation. When we arrived the room was already set up exactly as I had requested and the staff was so attentive to me and my guests throughout the event. The food was also delicious. They even boxed up some food for my fiancé to take home when he arrived at the end to help take our gifts home. I can't say enough good things about The Columns and would highly recommend them for an event as small as a 15 person party or as big as a wedding.

Hands down the best decision we could have made for a wedding venue. From the food, to the service, to the incredible beauty of the venue alone. Just all around amazing. The day flowed to effortlessly thanks to Heidi and Mo. I wish we could relive the day a million times over. The ceremony spot was beautiful, cocktail hour absolutely gorgeous. Something we so appreciated was the snacks and drinks while taking photos. A huge plus that helps you relax after your ceremony!! We received so many complements on how amazing food and service was. Aside from all of that, you want your day to be easy and care free and they made that possible. We are SO grateful and would recommend this place 1000000x over if we could.

We had a nightmare of a time choosing a wedding reception venue, but once we found The Columns, everything was perfect. Heidi, Candace, and the whole team were so helpful/responsive from start to finish, and we had guests coming up to us during our reception/still have people coming up to us now saying that they felt like they were the ones getting married because the staff was so attentive. The food was amazing, the lobby served as a perfect last-minute backdrop for bridal party pics (the weather on our wedding day was gross!), the ballroom space is absolutely gorgeous, and everything comes at a fantastic value. We can't recommend The Columns enough!

I truly cannot put into words the wonderful experience my husband and I had with The Columns. I viewed the Columns for the first time in 2016. It was my first stop and turned out to be my last stop for my July 2018 wedding. Leading up to our day, I was guided by Heidi and Candace to ensure our vision came to life for our big day. Without any doubt, The Columns made our wedding day absolutely beautiful. I could not imagine getting married anywhere else. The grounds itself are absolutely beautiful for our outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour. The inside décor and setup left our guests speechless. Not only was the look of the venue everything we wanted, the staff was absolutely exceptionally on the day of our wedding. Everyone was pleasant and went above and beyond to ensure our day went smooth. Heidi was amazing, professional, and flexible regarding any last minute changes or minor issues we encountered. It was certainly a magical day and we're happy The Columns played such a huge role in making it unforgettable.

I celebrated my bridal shower on 4/18 in the new edition of the Columns Banquets! First- the room looked gorgeous! The details and class of the establishment are obvious in the decor! The food...breakfast buffet and omelet station....was phenomenal! My guests raved about the taste, the quantity and the speed of the omelet station! The champagne punch was a favorite by all...everyone asked for the recipe! And the staff....I can't say enough about the staff! They were quick and efficient! Ron, the banquet coordinator, met my every need and in a timely manner! I couldn't have asked for a better right hand man! They even did things that they don't usually do, such as let me bring things in the day before, to ease the load on the actual day of the shower! I highly recommend the Columns for any banquet needs and I can't thank them enough for making my bridal shower a great success!
