Depe Dene Resort
3494 Lake Shore Dr, Lake George, NY 12845, USA- Spaces for 300 Guests
Depe Dene Lakeside Resort — pronounced "dee-pee-dean," a Native American term for family and togetherness — occupies more than 10 acres of beachfront along Lake George in New York's Adirondack region. The resort fronts the water with more than 350 feet of private beach, which the resort describes as the largest private beach on Lake George. At the heart of the property stands the Historic Waterfront Mansion, a five-story, 12,000-square-foot estate built in the late 1800s by Captain D.S. Denison and one of the final homes from Millionaires' Row. With panoramic lake views throughout, it is available for family reunions, wedding parties, and corporate conferences. The broader resort campus encompasses villas, cottages, townhouses, suites, and motel rooms, all within walking distance of the beach and pool. On-site amenities include a heated outdoor pool, kayak and paddleboard rentals, tennis, pickleball, basketball, volleyball, a game room, and a playground — resources well suited to multi-day group celebrations.

Frank Lloyd Wright's Fontana Boathouse
1 Rotary Row, Buffalo, NY 14201, USA- Spaces for 80 Guests
Frank Lloyd Wright's Fontana Boathouse sits on the shores of Buffalo's Black Rock Channel — a working boathouse and architectural landmark that serves as one of the city's most singular event venues. Wright originally designed the structure for the University of Wisconsin in 1905 and thought so highly of it that he included it in his celebrated 1910 Wasmuth Portfolio. The building came to life in Buffalo in 2007 through the philanthropy of Charles and Marie Fontana and their son Tom, for whom it is named. Wright's classic design details carry through every floor: large ceiling beams draw visitors from one space to the next, and Arts and Crafts lighting fixtures adorn the stairwells, reflected in the second-floor windows. The main banquet hall opens onto an outdoor balcony overlooking the Niagara River and Lake Erie, and wedding parties can make a memorable entrance by arriving at the boat dock below. The Fontana Boathouse is available year-round for weddings, corporate gatherings, and cocktail events. The West Side Rowing Club and Canisius College Crew Team continue to store boats on the first floor, keeping the building in active use exactly as Wright intended.

SKY Armory occupies a restored former department store building in Armory Square, the historic heart of downtown Syracuse, NY. Opened in October 2014 by founder Nicole Samolis — a Central New York event planner with more than 20 years in the industry — the venue was built around the gaps she observed working with other spaces: in-house catering prepared from scratch, in-house floral and décor, and a dedicated wedding planner guiding each event from booking through the reception. Four flexible event spaces span the building's floors and accommodate celebrations from intimate gatherings to events of 400 or more guests. The aesthetic throughout is industrial and urban: exposed steel beams, brick accent walls, large windows with city views, and vaulted ceilings that preserve the character of the original structure. Planning, catering, floral, and service coordination are all managed on-site by a single team, eliminating the coordination burden of working with multiple vendors. SKY Armory holds the Couples' Choice Award annually since 2017 and is a certified NYS Women-Owned Business (WBE).
