Sarah Gaffney(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-10-2021 This venue is a true hidden gem. It was an absolute DREAM to have our wedding reception here. We are from out-of-state and so we were looking for a venue large enough for our family & one that offered onsite lodging. The rooms at the inn are incredible and feel like a five-star hotel. I absolutely loved being able to have access to the pub after the reception to spend more time with our family & bridal party. Our wedding guests were in complete awe of the entire venue! The team that work here are AMAZING. I personally want to thank Gabriela the event planner at Glen Sanders ā you were so incredible & made the process very easy, despite being in a pandemic. You made us feel so special and like we were the only couple you were working with. Thank you to the entire team that helped put on our wedding. I wish I could relive the day over & over.

Erica Fitzgerald(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-07-2021 From the second we walked into the Glen Sanders Mansion for our tour we knew it was the perfect spot to host our wedding reception. The beautiful ballroom, picturesque cocktail room on the river and the spacious outdoor patio is the perfect location for wedding receptions. Not to mention the newly renovated lobby with a beautiful staircase and updated guest rooms. Having the Lounge restaurant/bar at the glen sanders was so perfect for guests looking to hang out between the ceremony and cocktail hour, and we were able to move back down into the lounge following the reception for an after party! All of our guests loved the outdoor area as well. Gabriela was amazing throughout the entire planning process, and made rescheduling (twice due to covid!) simple and stress free. Liz was fantastic the day of and made sure our reception ran so smoothly. My mom and I were so concerned with how long it would take to bustle my train but Maki bustled it within a few minutes and was so helpful throughout the day making sure I had everything I needed. Everything was absolutely perfect and we couldnāt have been more pleased with our decision to have our reception at the Glen Sanders and would recommend that everyone check out the Glen Sanders for any event they are looking to host!

Maria, Leslie and Maki handled very single need or question I had, and even fixed my dress when it ripped early in the night (Maki had safety pins right on her). The food was amazing, everything was set up EXACTLY how I had requested and pictured from the day I started planning. There was a small table hiccup, but nothing terrible.

Tom Kaczmarek(groom)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 29-12-2018 We went into our wedding with the highest of expectations for the Glen Sanders Mansion and its staff, and somehow they found a way to completely surpass them. From first touring the property to signing our contract to planning and finally holding our wedding, Maria, Lesley, Maki, and their attentive staff took the stress out of the process and made for the most magical night of our lives. Beyond their amazing food and ambiance, Glen Sanders brought our back-of-napkin ideas to life, and literally tended to our every need the day of our event. We have yet to speak to a guest who didn't rank our wedding among the best they ever attended - and that includes some very honest critics :). My new stepdaughter asked us if we could throw another wedding sometime soon, and while we don't plan on that (for obvious reasons!), we can't wait to attend our next event there.

Every bride and groom should be so lucky to have the same great experience we did. Everything was just perfect and itās not easy to have a āperfectā wedding day. We looked at a lot of wedding venues and Glen Sanders met and exceeded all our expectations and still fell within our budget. The āDream Dateā weddings are the best deal in town. We got married in spring, so slightly outside peak season, but had the best experience at Glen Sanders. It was seriously mind-blowing that we could afford everything we received. The drinks were amazing and there was so much tasty food. The venue was so well organized and so well managed. There is a reason you use wedding professionals, they know what they are doing and are able to provide everything you need and didnāt know you wanted.Maria is a dream. We trusted her knowledge and opinion and she helped us so much with the planning process. Our day of coordinator and personal attendants were amazing. They handled every little detail and made sure we had everything we needed. My attendant even helped me bustle my gown, fixed my hair and ran back and forth to my suite to deliver and pick up things I needed (and Iām not one to ask for these things). The entire staff was so helpful and we didnāt have to worry about a thing!The grounds were still recovering from a very rough winter and a very cold spring but the pictures came out great. There are so many options for photography right on site and we didnāt have to worry about running around town or transporting our wedding party.Having everything we needed right on site was exactly what we wanted. We had our ceremony on site and then quickly transitioned to cocktail hour followed by the reception. Our wedding party and families were able to stay on site and we enjoyed having the bridal suite just upstairs. We loved having a spot for an after party right on site and it was just such a fun time.

All of our guests raved about the food, presentation, and service! Maria (our wedding coordinator) has many years of experience and put our worries/concerns to rest. Lesley was our event day manager and was on top of everything! Maki was my bridal attendant and also exceptional. Something to keep in mind about the bridal suite though- if there is a wedding the day before then their check out time is not until 11am on the day of your wedding. So you'll have to get ready in one of the conference rooms. Lesley did a great job coordinating the transition of rooms. Reviewed on 08-12-2017

Lesley who was our coordinator for the day was absolutely perfect, making sure everything was exactly how we pictured, and checking in on us throughout the day to make sure it was everything we wanted. My dad came up to me and noted how organized she was, but most importantly how personable and kind she was. Thank you, Lesley! Maki was our bridal attendant. Damn. This beautiful women literally did everything. From holding my train to my dress while I was walking and taking pictures and making sure we had a drink in our hand after setting it down on a table to greet a guest, to making a plate of food, packing up enough left overs for a week, and bringing everything up to our room without worry.

Jade Rankin(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 02-10-2015 I am going to attempt to find the right words to describe Glen Sanders and the people that made our wedding day perfect. First, let me start with Maria who worked very closely with us to set our wedding up. She is incredibly patient (I had a question every other day) and really looks out for a bride and groom to make sure they know everything they need to do to have a smooth day. When Maria was unavailable, Andrea stepped in and she also was very patient. The day of the wedding, Lucien made sure EVERYTHING went off without a hitch and continued as planned for the whole night. He even coordinated with our DJ to make sure the wedding party walked at specific times so that I could walk to my husband at the exact moment in our song. Maki, our bridal attendant, saved my life by fixing my shoes (the strap came off before the reception, so she sewed it) and my husband's life by keeping food that was safe for him to eat completely separate from the rest when she packed it up for us. Aside from our specific interactions with people, our guests could not stop praising the entire staff (including the inn personnel) on their friendliness and attentiveness to them. Our guests could also not stop commenting on the beauty of the venue itself- which, aside from the people, is what really sold us when we were doing our venue searching. Glen Sanders Mansion is a classic, timeless venue that is run by people who really want to make your day special for you. We highly recommend them. Reviewed on 04-10-2015

Erin Coles(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-10-2014 My husband and I live in NYC, so we had to travel up to see venues in the Albany area - and we just had one day! Glen Sanders was the last venue we saw, and we had almost given up at that point, as nothing else felt right. \r\rWhen we arrived at Glen Sanders for the tour, Maria brought us down to the bar for some champagne before the meeting. She took us through the space, then walked us through all of the details, and we were sold. First of all, Maria is amazing and has been doing this for many years. She knows her stuff! We booked right away. :) \r\rThe planning process is easy and seamless with any Mazzone Hospitality venue, and I would argue Maria is the best! Planning from NYC was much less of hassle than we thought it would be. We decided at the last minute (a couple of weeks before the wedding) to re-do some of the food/beverage details, and they accommodated our request. \r\rThe day of the wedding was perfect. We used the Stockade room for hair/makeup, then moved into the suite. Maki, our attendant, immediately arrived at the suite and brought us champagne. Of course, she was amazing the entire night. Our bridal party couldn't stop talking about how amazing she was. Before they could even think about getting their next drink, they had a new one in their hands. \r\rFrank, our Maitre D' is one of the best I've ever seen. He is kind, accommodating, and thoughtful - and he keeps the night moving along nicely, all while being nice to the other vendors and his staff.

She has been there for a very long time, knows exactly what's going on, was honest, sincere, and a real asset to our wedding planning process. We live out of town, so I was planning most of the wedding from far away, and she was very responsive to every phone call, question, concern, and change that I had throughout the process. She gave her honest professional opinion on what would and would not work, and was flexible with many of the changes we made as it got closer to the wedding date. The food on our wedding day was incredible - all of our guests are still talking about how delicious the meal was! The location itself is well kept, well managed, and in great condition - the maintenance staff really keeps it looking great.

My husband and I felt like we were part of a family that entire weekend. The absolute best place for a wedding in the Capital Region and beyond!! Reviewed on 25-06-2013

Sara Roberts(bride)3 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-06-2012 Overall we had a great ceremony and reception. However, I was a little upset with the setup staff. I left specific instructions on the table numbers and they didn't listen. I told the manager I would notice if they were wrong and she needs to stress to her staff about that. The food during the bridal party's cocktail hour was bad, the cold food was warm and the hot food was cold. The server who was bringing us our hot food gave me attitude when I had to ask three times for a certain snack, and it never came until 5 minutes before walking into the reception room and they were overcooked. my dinner was good, but i can tell the gnocchi's came from different batches because some were hard and some were soft. Overall with all the stuff that went wrong, nothing was horrible enough to remember, except my maid of honor's speech.... Reviewed on 12-07-2012

Danielle Lin(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-10-2011 Everytime I turned around, whatever I saw was better than I had imagined. Glen Sanders does everything for you from the decorating to the cake and all the details between. It was an amazing experience. Coming from a small town where there is nothing remotely similar to this for miles, I could not have even imagined having a wedding this amazing. It was trully magazine/television worthy and I could not have done it on my own because I have never even been to a wedding as nice as it was. All my guests said it was the best wedding they've ever been to. My mother in law said it was the best day of her life. My grandma said that even though it was by far the nicest and most beautiful wedding she had attended, it still felt relaxed and not stuffy. Best part of all they sent us home with trays of desserts! Could not be happier with my experience. If I did it again, I'd do it exactly the same! Reviewed on 24-10-2011
Heather Bartis(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-09-2011 Maria - Hands down, best planner ever! Food was amazing and my guests raved about the cocktail hour.

We didn't have to worry about anything with her, she returned all of our calls promptly, happily answered any and all questions we had. I can't speak highly enough.\r Maki was our attendent for the day, she was so sweet and patient, always smiling! She even made my husband and I little to go breakfast bags because we had to leave soo early for our flight the next morning. \r All in all, I can't say enough good things about the mansion.

Leah Samman(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-03-2011 I can not find the words to tell you how great The Glen Sanders Mansion, Mazzone management and their staff are. We looked at all venues from castles in Lake George to quaint cottage grounds on lakes. I was looking for class, grace, elegance, quality and excellent customer service. I stumbled upon everything that I was looking for at Glen Sanders. I know that they have a few venues to chose from but I am very bias towards the Mansion and their staff after viewing all of the other venues as well.\r\rMaria DeMartino listens to the bride and family, accommodates and really lets a bride dream as big or as little as possible. She even gives advice throughout the whole planning process when you request it. She has always returned emails and phone calls. She treats every meeting like it is the first, relaxing, a drink and nothing but smiles. The staff at the Mansion is always professional, upbeat and can fix ANYthing! Trust me on this. If you can dream it they can do it, or at least point you in the direction.\r\rThey are the most experienced and upbeat. You do not have to wait for someone to tell you, let me ask my manager about that or I'm not sure, I'll get back to you. This a family of experienced professionals whose business is making weddings go off without a problem. They put me at ease no matter how stressed I got, and I did become stressed. After speaking with any one of them for just a few minutes I knew they always had everything under control.\r\rI would even say that this venue should be also considered for destination weddings.\r\rFor a day that you can not ever do over do not make mistakes in selecting the right venue and vendors. I have heard so many wedding day horror stories and am lucky that I don't have not ONE! My day was just as I imagined and planned!! You can have a million dollar wedding or something quaint in such a historic, magical place. Reviewed on 26-03-2011

Diana Lovett(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 04-09-2010 From the very beginning we knew we want to use Glen Sanders because they did a great job for my cousin's wedding. Traci helped us incorporate British elements into the appetizers (mini fish and chips were a huge hit). They accommodated every request and the food looked beautiful and was delicious. Their specialty is steak and the Chateaubriand was amazing. We got such great feedback on it from our foodie friends! On the day, Matt Mazzone was really accommodating (we had to move our cocktails inside because of the weather) and they pulled it off flawlessly. They are total pros. Reviewed on 30-09-2010
