Amazing wedding experience

We booked Paletta Mansion after viewing just this one venue in person and it did not disappoint. It's a beautiful and intimate space for a smaller wedding, but has everything you need on site (ceremony, reception, beautiful backdrop for photos). Brittany and the Edge Hospitality team have been wonderful throughout the wedding planning process and on our wedding day. Food was great, service was excellent. We especially appreciated the communication and organization from them, which made the whole experience stress-free!

Absolutely perfection

Marissa and the entire Paletta team are a dream to work with. The venue itself is stunning and just what we were looking for. The food and service is also incredible and there is nothing I would change about our day.

Magical Day

I cannot say enough about the Paletta team and venue. From my first contact with Marissa and her support in organizing all the details, to Ian who managed the event and ironed out any wrinkle that arose without a second thought to Gabriel our bartender and the ama,ing wait staff I have absolutely nothing but amazing things to say. I am confident that any couple would be ecstatic to say "I do" at Paletta with these wonderful people as your supports.

Beautiful venue

We were looking for a venue that wasn’t too big, but also had the historical vintage vibe. (Dining can comfortably accommodate 74). And that’s exactly what we found at Paleta! The property is well-maintained and every corner is a scenic picture. The ceremony overlooks the water which is so picture us! I like that we were able to get ready, have the ceremony and then the reception all in one place. The food from the catering service was so delicious. Everybody was complimenting it. Great vibes, great memories, definitely recommend this venue for a beautiful wedding.

June 2024 Wedding

My new husband and I had a fantastic wedding at Paletta! We got married in June 2024 and from start to finish everything went smoothly. Marisa helped us every step of the way and helped make our wedding dream come true! The whole staff was amazing too and made everything so easy and stress free. The food was fabulous - we wouldn't change any of it. They were great with our signature drinks passing them around as well. There isn't a single thing we would change. We were very happy with everything and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Paletta to anyone looking for a picturesque venue on the lake with amazing food and decor with a super staff.

Paletta Wedding

My husband and I had our wedding reception at the Paletta mansion on February 17th, and the event far exceeded our expectations. There was little for us to worry about from the beginning of the planning process to the end of our celebration. Marisa and Ian were especially helpful during the planning, setup and execution of our wedding reception, fielding emails and accommodating our requests. The venue is beautiful, the food is delicious, and the staff is absolutely top tier. If you’re hoping to have a warm and intimate wedding celebration, look no further than the Paletta mansion!

Wonderful day!

The team at Paletta took great care of us and our guests. We had the whole mansion to ourselves the entire day so there was little stress when minor delays happened. The unique layout creates many different spaces to dance, hang out over drinks or just relax after dinner, which catered nicely to the different personalities among our guests. Food was great as well!

Most Perfectly Magical Day

I am so happy I booked Paletta Mansion for my Bridal Shower and Wedding.
Both days were beyond my wildest dreams. The venue and grounds are absolutely stunning and with the endless photo locations it was the perfect spot. The service staff were amazing, food service was perfectly on time and the meal was the best meal I have ever had at a wedding! Guest are still raving about both events!! During the wedding the bartender made sure I always had a drink in my hand. The Bridal Room was an dream; to be able to get ready onsite and do all photos along with the wedding ceremony and reception in 1 location made the day stress free. Marisa did not miss any detail in my many many emails about both events; and I sent her alot! It was honestly the most perfectly magical day! I wish I could re-live it over and over again.

Unforgettable Experience

My husband and I were married at Paletta in June, and we can’t get over how amazing it was – and neither can our guests! The grounds are beautiful with lush greenery, perfectly maintained flower beds, and a picturesque rocky beach. The mansion itself has been lovingly maintained to keep its character and it still has a homey feel rather than an empty blank event space.

We really appreciated the dedicated Bride/Groom rooms which served as home base for our families and gave us a quiet, private place to get away to when we needed a break. Our guests loved that they had free range of the grounds and the property (upstairs, downstairs, outside) to wander and take in the views of Lake Ontario at their leisure.

As beautiful as the venue is, the SERVICE and FOOD was even better, ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. Our guests are still talking about it, and we even heard that some of our guests have tried to recreate at home several of the dishes that we served. We opted for a cocktail style reception with several stations and lots of passed hors d’oeuvres. The staff was incredible, quickly bringing food, clearing dishes, and even remembering individual guest allergies. Everything was delicious and it was by far the best food many (if not all) of our guests have had at a wedding. It’s also worth mentioning that the bartender, Gabriel, was so friendly and FUN – we have several great photos with him.

My husband and I wish we had more life events coming up that we could host at Paletta. The Paletta team made us look so good and impressed all of our guests, we are so proud to have called Paletta home, if only for the day. It’s such a special place and we’re so happy we have the memories at Paletta!

Bridal Shower

An absolute perfect place to host a bridal shower. With a romantic and vintage feel to the venue, I decided to do a Parisian theme and it was a dream come true! I couldn’t have been happier with how it turned out. Marisa was amazing to work with in the planning process and the day-of staff were so kind and attentive to all of my group’s needs that day. I highly recommend this venue, and the lakeview is an added bonus! Food was also very good, and an overall amazing value.
