Villa Lombardi's - Holbrook, New York

We had our wedding here on 11/22/23, Thanksgiving Eve. So many amazing things to say about this venue and our experience. Villas was the first venue we toured at when we started looking for venues for our wedding. We loved it immediately, just from walking in those front doors and also into the main ballroom. After looking at about 10 other venues, we came back here and booked with them as soon as we could. They were able to accommodate our date, which almost every other during that time of year in regards to when we were booking (a little more than a year ahead) was already booked up.
Over that next year we had a few meetings with Eleanor who was our main contact and discussed all our details for the wedding. So many our guests, still to today, can’t stop mentioning how beautiful the venue was and also how incredible the food was, specifically the cocktail hour.
The cocktail hour room has a beautiful look.
Our ceremony was also held at Villas and we had it inside, which was a closed off portion of the main room. And then there’s the main ballroom which is just magnificent. Large space that comfortably accommodated our guests and vendors and made for a smooth night.

Gave 4 stars because we felt there were 2 main issues here that we experienced.
One was the promise of us having the entire ballroom as long as we had 300 people. We invited 470 guests, ended up having a little over 300 attend. Coming close to our date there were comments made about us not having the full room or that they would be able to fit 300 into half the room or 3/4 the room. Due to our guest count and vendors we were having (2 photo booths and caricature artist) we were adamant about having the full room, not to mention it was also in our written contract. And the problem here is that this was an issue up until the day before the wedding. It was an unnecessary issue to be added to the never ending list of wedding planning. After many discussions we did get the full room.
Second issue was dinner being served late and delayed from one side of the room to the other. By the time one side of the room had gotten their dinner, the dessert was being put out for the other side. It was over an hour of dinner serving. It just felt like there was an issue with how many guests we had, yet they claim they can cater 600 guests here.

With that being said I again want to say in the end we had a fantastic time here and it was a great venue with excellent staff. Eleanor was pleasant to work with, and Ray and Kathy helped assure us that the night was going to go smooth which it did with their help. Thank you all at Villa Lombardi’s!

We looked at so many venues for our event. Not one compared to Villa Lombardi's. The staff was so accommodating from the first visit through helping us pack the car after our party. They truly deliver Italian hospitality to the hosts and guests. It was so clean you can eat off the highly polished floors. Attention to every detail is an understatement. Food was fantastic and the party was well run. Service, presentation, cleanliness. They offer it all. If I had one do differently, I didn't like that open bar meant the bottles were hidden from our guests view.

They advertise on their website their brunch buffet. Nowhere does it say they “didn’t feel like having it”. And that’s literally what the manager said when he sat us down and handed us menus. We called for a birthday reservation saying we were coming for the brunch, we even said as were checking in “we’re here for the brunch” and they had the audacity to sit us down and only after handing us menus that they “didn’t feel like doing it”. We lost any chance of reserving at another brunch buffet bc of this. And it ruined our birthday plan completely. Never ever coming there again and soo upset they ruined a birthday plan.

Had my nephews wedding here. Picture speak about their decorations and all. But the what i have to highlight is the quality of their management and staff. They really took care of our guests. Also we did a cultural music and dance show during the wedding. Loved their sound system and lighting.

Where do I begin? My husband and I had our dream Ceremony, Reception, and After Party at Villa Lombardi's on 02/12/22. Everyone was absolutely amazing to work with and we are still on Cloud 9 from the perfect day. We worked with Jennifer leading up to the wedding. She was very attentive and made sure everything was in order for our big day. Our wish was her command! The day of, Kathy was our Maitre D' and she was outstanding. She was always asking us what we needed throughout the night and worked tirelessly in the background to ensure perfection! The entire staff at Villa was so great. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how great the service was and how magnificent the night was. From the fantastic food to the gorgeous venue, both my husband and I are so happy we chose Villa Lombardi's to start our forever. Our guests have already said our wedding will be talked about for a long time because of how incredible everything was. Know you are in extraordinary hands when booking with Villa Lombardi's!
