Venue Previewed for ours this weekend (Villa Barone) Review

This past Saturday my friend hosted a wedding at Villa Barone Hilltop Manor. This provided a preview of what we can expect for our wedding this upcoming Saturday at the same venue. The place was fantastic, service/staff was professional, courteous, top notch. Food was fantastic. Guests raved over the food, presentation, atmosphere. It was a wonderful night. It was nice to feel that ours this weekend will be in good hands with no worries. They treat you like family since Day 1 when we made our first appointment with Johnny and met with Robert who will be our Maitre D and finally Vinny who we met to finalize and drop off favors etc. They are very helpful easy to work with cater to your needs and since time is ticking until our big day if we have any further questions or doubts we can contact them by email at 2, 3am etc in the morning and they will get back to us within an hour. This puts my fiance at ease as well as calm all nerves and fears knowing they are by our side 24/7. They provide captain, bridal attendant to help assist in any way possible which helps take the burden off of us.  I recommend anyone looking for a venue there is no doubt you cannot go wrong with them.

    Congratulations on your upcoming wedding!  You just made my day; I booked Villa Barone Hilltop Manor for my May 2012 wedding and have never attended an event there.  Robert was fantastic and answered all of my questions and was able to customize to my needs.  It's great to hear from other brides that their special day was like it should be.  I hope you post after your wedding and let us know how everything went!

    Thanks

    I have to say that I had a negative experience there.  We went to a wedding there about 4 years ago.  They had handed out cigars in glass cases, while we were dancing my fiance's cigar fell out of his pocket and broke on the floor.  He was KICKED out of the wedding by the Maitre D!  The next day the groom called us so embarrassed and apologetic.

    atorresny- 
    We just returned from our honeymoon in Aruba.
    Villa Barone Hilltop Manor was spectacular! I attened my friends a week before mine and it was absolutely amazing.
    Our wedding was the most talked about my mother/mother in law received numerous phone calls about the great wedding beautiful venue and excellent FOOD.
    We were treated like royalty. You have nothing to worry about the bridal attendant makes you feel so at ease. Ourselves and bridal party enjoyed food/drinks in the bridal suite, we were able to enjoy our cocktail hour with our guests which was wonderful seeing our guests enjoying the food and having a wonderful time. Our entrance was spectacular the champagne march makes you feel like King and Queen as does the dance with fire (your second wedding song). They make you feel like family and it was a fabulous day. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to be at ease on their big day and having no worries and guests enjoying themselves. I guarantee you will hear great feedback from your guests for days. To me the venue and food and service especially their white glove service is superb. The DJ is what controls the way your wedding goes and we had DJ Serg and had a guest singer "Reina" which got the party Crazy. 
         I can't answer the negative feedback that rachael7183 had. They did not handout cigars in glass cases for us and I think if you wanted that would be extra. I know if you want a fresh mozzarella maker it is extra. I do not know the circumstances of what happened but I cannot see why and/or believe the Maitre D would kick anyone out. The 3 main workers I think 2 own it were all fantastic. We met Johnny the first time and immediately felt like family. As we got closer we visited the venue a few more times along with the tasting, final payment, favor drop offs etc and met Robert, Vinny and were treated spectacular by all 3 as well as the entire staff. If you have any questions for the venue Vinny answers emails within an hour even at 2am! Trust me you do not have anything to worry about but your dress leave the rest up to them. Congrats
