We loved hosting our wedding reception at Upper East. Our guests RAVED about the food (and still ask us about the mashed potatoes!) and having Katie there on the day of the wedding helped relieve so much stress. Even leading up to the day they were always available for any weird question I threw at them or last-minute request to show someone the space. They were also AMAZING with food allergies. I can't eat onions or garlic which can be such a pain, but all I had to do was submit any dietary restrictions with our dinner choices and had no problems on the day of. I had my own salad dressing, and my entree didn't have the shallot sauce that would've made me feel sick the rest of the night. They were so accommodating to all of our weird and wacky ideas and requests and the night was perfect!

We are so thankful to Upper East for making our wedding the best day ever! From how friendly our bartenders were, to how helpful our wedding coordinator was, to how delicious the food was, they put on a truly spectacular event. The venue alone is beautiful but the staff really made it a magical day. I am so lucky to have chosen this venue, you will not be disappointed!!!

We could not have been more thrilled we chose Upper East for our wedding venue. The staff were incredible all around. We worked with Kelsey to plan our details and both she and Katie coordinated for us the day of. Everything went perfectly as they put our minds at ease by taking on our stress. The venue doesn’t need much decor at all because it is so naturally beautiful, our guests loved it! Food and drinks were both great and definitely worth the cost. The coordination of the entire day was set up so that we and our families could enjoy the day with minimal worries or ”to-do’s”. Our family and bridal party expressed to us how happy they were that they were able to enjoy the day instead of worrying about what came next. If I could rate 6 stars, I would 😊

This place was so good to us through the planning process. We booked about 2 years ahead of our date as the world was coming off all the covid craziness. I had seen them on social media prior to getting engaged and we booked after it being the only venue we toured. It is the perfect back drop to any theme or color palette. Let me tell you, they have it all! I worked closest with Kelsey and then Hanni and they were wonderful. Always available by email every step of the way through planning and sent reminders of when we needed to get together for detail meetings. I loved that I was able to do ceremony, reception, food/beverage, tables/chairs, linens, photobooth and even decor with them. It was so nice to have less outside vendors to coordinate. They throw an amazing tasting party where you get to sample a good portion of the menu items including drinks and meet other couples. The tier packages they have updated make it even easier to get an 'all inclusive' experience. (I also booked my bridal shower at Circa on Seventh and got some freebies for already having my wedding booked with them) Everyone I have run into since our wedding has RAVED about the food that it was the best wedding food they have ever had. We did custom cocktails that they special ordered ingredients for. As far as logistics, I was able to drop all my decor off the week of the wedding and did not have to pick up til the Monday after which was a HUGE RELIEF. The bridal suites are absolutely gorgeous and photograph well. There is not a spot for the guys to get ready but the staff had plenty of suggestions and partnerships with other close-by establishments. Also, my wedding was mid July and my dress was quite heavy so it did get hot on the dance floor even with AC. All in all, I would absolutely do it all over again. THANKS UPPER EAST/CULINARY INFUSIONS!!

Loved that you could do almost everything through the venue, they offer so many rental options. They are accommodating to any changes you needed and communication was very timely. Space was large and bartenders and wait staff were extremely nice. My wedding coordinator at Upper East - Katie was amazing & was great with every detail on the day!

Everyone tells you that no wedding is \"perfect,\" but Upper East truly DOES make your day feel that way! I can't recommend the staff at Upper East enough - I was able to enjoy every single second of my wedding day as a bride without worrying about the details. Kelsey, the venue director, really makes it a point to know you and your goals for the day, and then she works with the staff to make it happen. Our guests still rave about our food and our wedding was months ago... the consensus is that the chicken and waffles were the biggest hit! If you're looking for a beautiful space, kind people and an opportunity to be the bride and groom you deserve to be, book Upper East.

Upper East was the best decision my husband and I made when planning our wedding! Everything went flawlessly and I can't say enough how helpful Katie was the whole time. They really took care of every detail and was there to help answer any question we had.

Choosing Upper East for our wedding venue was the best decision that we made throughout the whole wedding planning process. We got married here in July and I can’t recommend it enough. Great location, beautiful inside, amazing food and an incredible team of people working there. From the very beginning, the team went above and beyond to make sure that our day was perfect. They worked with us to give us a dream wedding for the budget that we could manage, and they were open to new ideas, i.e., a big group picture outside the venue during the room flip and a welcome drink for escort cards. Everyone was kind, helpful, and professional. Our guests told us over and over that the food was amazing and that the waitstaff and bar tenders were incredible. Thank you to the Upper East Team! We would get married there again tomorrow if we could!! 10/10

All guests were super happy with their meals and we are so happy we utilized their in house pastry chef for our delicious and beautiful cake!
