Capital Region Couple Of the Year: Let's Pick a Venue!

May, 8th, 2017

Last weekend, we had an exciting day touring the Mazzone Hospitality Event Venues.

With the task of choosing a wedding venue, rehearsal dinner location and a spot to host a bridal shower, the Capital Region Couple of the Year has a lot to think about. Bright and early on Saturday morning, we geared up at 8am to do a full day of touring. We visited:

Cornerstone at the Plaza

Saratoga Hall of Springs

Key Hall at Proctors

90 State Events

Glen Sanders Mansion

and last but certainly not least, Saratoga National Golf Club

Asi and Chenique got a chance to tour each venue, learn about the unique characteristics of each event space and were given visions of how their day could pan out! From amenities to location to atmosphere, each spot has their own character and charm, so getting to see each space all in one day really helped them to compare and contrast. But when push comes to shove, the decision is going to be tough. Thankfully our incredibly helpful Sales Planning staff is there to answer questions and give advice, every step of the way.

So, here's the run-down of each space.

Cornerstone at the Plaza

Cornerstone at the Plaza is in the center of all things downtown Albany. This modern space is a blank canvas, with beautiful views of the city. Located at the base of the Egg at The Empire State Plaza, this event space is accessible and convenient for intimate wedding receptions, rehearsal dinners and more
