The Sagamore Resort sits on a private 70-acre island in Bolton Landing, New York, on Lake George in the Adirondacks. Dating to 1883, the property's Grand Hotel-era architecture gives gatherings here a sense of history that newer builds rarely match, with the lake visible from most event settings. For private events and celebrations, the resort offers more than 32,000 square feet of indoor event space and 20,000 square feet of outdoor space. The Sagamore Ballroom and Event Center each accommodate up to 1,000 guests in reception configuration, handling galas, large weddings, and multi-day conferences at full scale. Smaller gatherings find a fit in the named conference suites — Abenia, Evelley, and Triuna, each handling up to 75 guests — as well as the lakeside Bay View room and Dollar Island for mid-sized groups. Outdoors, the tented and climate-controlled Shelving Rock Terrace accommodates up to 300 guests with panoramic Lake George views, and the Lakeview Lawn opens the space further for ceremonies and receptions under open sky. In-house catering draws on fresh local produce, and the resort's event team provides planning support from first inquiry through event day. Guest accommodations across hotel rooms, lodge suites, and multi-bedroom condominiums make The Sagamore a natural choice for destination weddings and multi-day corporate retreats.

The Mouzon House is a restored 1883 Victorian estate in Saratoga Springs, New York, offering boutique private events anchored in New Orleans-inspired, farm-to-table cuisine. The property carries a rich history: Ardelle Mouzon-McCoy acquired the home in 1919 and successfully fought its demolition during 1970s urban renewal with support from her church and Skidmore College professors. The Pedinotti family later purchased and restored the house to its original 1883 aesthetic, adding interior murals depicting both family histories and garden imagery. The estate accommodates up to 60 guests for a seated dinner in its largest single room, and up to 120 for cocktail-style receptions across the full house — which includes private dining rooms, a wraparound porch, and a large open-air covered patio. The venue suits boutique weddings, rehearsal dinners, corporate gatherings, showers, birthday celebrations, and family reunions. Menus are customized to each event with seasonal, locally sourced ingredients, craft cocktails, and wine pairings. The Mouzon House operates with a strong commitment to sustainability, from its partnerships with local farmers to an events model that tailors food quantities to confirmed guest counts to minimize waste.

The Mansion of Saratoga occupies a four-acre estate in Rock City Falls, New York — the restored 1866 Victorian home of George West, the industrialist known as Saratoga's "Paper Bag King." Situated just seven miles west of Saratoga Springs, the property draws on its historical character to offer an exclusive, private setting for weddings and celebrations. Five distinct event spaces span the grounds: the original Victorian Mansion, a Rustic Barn, a White Tented Deck, an English Rose Garden, and a Bucolic Pond area. Guests have full access to the entire property during their event, creating a retreat-style experience rather than a shared hotel or venue floor. Events are supported by on-site catering — with an emphasis on high-quality food and presentation — and a dedicated event coordinator who works with clients to design each occasion around their personal style. The venue hosts weddings, private parties, corporate gatherings, and custom celebrations, with packages ranging from midweek all-inclusive weddings to fully bespoke weekend events.

The Inn at Manchester is a historic bed & breakfast in Manchester Village, Vermont, built in 1890 and welcoming guests as an inn since 1978. Over more than a century, the property passed through several stewards — from Mrs. Mathilda Shepard, who built the original house, to the Rosenberg family, who opened the Inn at Manchester in December 1978 and renovated it with the Vermont Division of Historic Preservation in 1985. In 2015, the Hanes family, then owners of the Inn, added the Celebration Barn as a dedicated event space alongside the property's Carriage House suites. The Celebration Barn offers 2,500 square feet of floor space plus an outdoor terrace and fire pit, with seating configurations that can be tailored to a couple's style. It accommodates gatherings from small, intimate ceremonies to celebrations for up to 170 guests, and also hosts corporate meetings. The Inn at Manchester additionally offers an elopement package for couples planning a simpler, more spontaneous wedding. Since 2018, the Inn has been owned and operated by the Maggiotto family, who continue its tradition of hospitality in the Green Mountains of Vermont.

Hildene is a compound word composed of two old English words: ""Hil,"" which means ""hill,"" and ""dene,"" which means ""valley with stream."" It was named after Robert and his wife Mary's Vermont home, which sits atop a hill with sweeping views of the Taconic Mountains to the west, the Green Mountains to the east, and the Battenkill River, which flows through the great Battenkill Valley below. Hildene was built by the Lincolns as a summer residence around the turn of the twentieth century. Robert Todd Lincoln was the only child born to Mary Todd Lincoln and Abraham Lincoln who lived to adulthood. As a young man in the summer of 1864, he came to Manchester to meet up with his mother and brother Tad at the Equinox Hotel, where he stayed for a few days. He returned some forty years later to purchase 392 acres of land on which he would construct what he would refer to as his ancestral home. Robert was the president of the Pullman Company at the time, which was the largest manufacturing corporation in the United States. Peggy Beckwith, Abraham Lincoln's great-granddaughter and the last Lincoln descendant to reside at Hildene, expanded the estate's land holdings by purchasing additional land. Her will stipulated that Hildene be given to the Church of Christ, Scientist in accordance with her grandmother's wishes when she died in 1975. The will stipulated that Hildene should be kept as a memorial to the Lincoln family by the Church of England. When the Church realized it was not in a financial position to do so, it didn't take long for the decision to be made, and plans were quickly put in place to sell Hildene to developers. The Church's plans for Hildene were discovered by local neighbors and community members, who fought to save the property. After three years in court, they were finally successful in obtaining the right to purchase Hildene. The Friends of Hildene, a non-profit organization, raised the funds necessary to purchase the estate in 1978, and then began the lengthy process of restoring the house and formal garden. A Georgian revival mansion and 14 historic buildings dot the 412-acre estate, which includes the home, formal garden, and observatory; the Welcome Center and The Museum Store in the historic carriage barn; the 1903 Pullman car, Sunbeam; and Hildene Farm. The estate has been in the same family for four generations. An 1832 schoolhouse still serves as a teaching greenhouse and composting facility, as well as vegetable gardens and an apple orchard in the lower portion of the property (the dene). The farm also includes a solar-powered goat dairy and cheese-making facility and a teaching greenhouse and composting facility in the lower portion of the property (the dene). Aside from hosting agricultural and environmental courses throughout the school year, the dene also serves as a classroom for Burr & Burton Academy high school students. Hildene's deep commitment to conservation, stewardship, and sustainability, as well as its mission Values into Action, are embodied in the BBA-Hildene program, which is completely immersive.

Nestled on 120 acres of preserved farmland in New York's upper Hudson River Valley, Historic Barns of Nipmoose is a restored agricultural compound built around three timber-framed barns — the Scottish Barn, the German Barn, and the Corn Crib.

Set on Hunter Park Road in Manchester Center, Vermont, the Northshire Civic Center is a nonprofit civic center built around Riley Rink, home to hockey, figure skating, and learn-to-skate programs each winter. In spring the rink surface gives way to turf for field sports and training, and by summer the grounds transform again into what the venue calls Southern Vermont's premier festival venue. Every July, the property hosts the two-day Dead of Summer Music Festival, and each year it is also home to the three-day Green Mountain Bluegrass & Roots festival (GMBR), which draws more than 3,000 people to camp, dance, and take in performances from regional artists. The Northshire Civic Center also welcomes craft fairs and community gatherings on its grounds throughout the season. Just minutes from downtown Manchester and within easy reach of Bromley and Stratton mountains, the Northshire Civic Center describes itself as more than an ice rink or event venue — a community gathering place where neighbors, families, and visitors come together to play, compete, and celebrate throughout the year.

Park-McCullough Historic Governor's Mansion is a 35-room Second Empire mansion in North Bennington, Vermont, built between 1864 and 1865 for attorney and entrepreneur Trenor W. Park. The home was later expanded and renovated in 1889-1890 by Park's daughter Eliza and her husband John G. McCullough to host President Benjamin Harrison's 1891 visit for the Bennington Monument dedication. Direct descendants lived in the house for a century until 1965, when it passed to the Park-McCullough House Association, and it is now recognized as one of New England's finest and best-preserved Victorian mansions. The property offers four main event spaces for weddings and private events: the historic mansion itself, formal manicured gardens, a wrap-around veranda for cocktails and touring, and a newly renovated Carriage Barn with a full catering kitchen, restrooms, a hardwood dance floor, heat, air conditioning, and wi-fi.

The Stockade Inn is a boutique hotel and event venue housed in a landmark building that dates to 1814 in Schenectady's Stockade Historic District, one of the oldest continuously inhabited neighborhoods in the United States. Originally constructed as the Mohawk Bank, the structure survived the devastating fire of 1819 that consumed much of the surrounding area. Over the following two centuries it served as a private residence, an educational facility, and — for nearly a century — The Mohawk Club, a prestigious social establishment that counted more than 600 members drawn from the national business community at its peak. Acquired by Urban Initiatives Group in 2020, the property has been restored to blend its original historic character with modern amenities. The inn sits just steps from the Mohawk River. Its event spaces carry the building's architectural heritage throughout: a ceremony room featuring vaulted ceilings and a period fireplace, a ballroom finished with wooden accents and antique chandeliers, and a wooden bar suited to cocktail receptions. Outdoor grounds are available for photography and open-air receptions. The venue hosts weddings, corporate retreats, private dinners, anniversaries, and a range of social celebrations.

Set in the village of Brandon, Vermont, the Brandon Inn has operated as a site of hospitality since 1786, beginning as a one-story tavern run by Captain Jacob Simonds. After a fire destroyed much of downtown Brandon in 1880, the current Dutch Colonial-style building rose in 1892, and the inn remains on the National Register of Historic Places today. The Brandon Inn hosts weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, and celebrations of life across three indoor spaces available as standalone rentals: the Ballroom, the Dining Room & Gallery, and the Garden Room & Patio. Its team provides in-house catering and an open bar at the Jacob Simonds Bar, with a champagne toast, wine, and local beer, plus optional decoration, lighting, DJ, live music, and A/V equipment. The property also includes an in-ground pool, brick patio, bandstand, and a large lawn along the Neshobe River, and the Ballroom hosts free live piano music on a Steinway Model B most Friday and Saturday evenings.
