From the reviews

We were married in the Fall of 2021 and the location was absolutely breathtaking. My husband and I fell in love with this venue as soon as we saw it. The history behind this venue is magical and the whole setup was the perfect mix of elegance and romantic wedding vibes.

★★★★★ — Jennifer, Jan 2022

We would HIGHLY recommend O’Brien’s Sleepy Hollow!! Our wedding day was absolutely perfect. Every detail and every moment was executed perfectly by their team. From the day we met Dennis and Cayleigh we knew we could trust them for our big day.

★★★★★ — Sara, Dec 2025

We would give O'Brien's 10 stars if we could! From our first tour to 11pm the night of our wedding they were incredible! So easy to work with, so accommodating, very quick responses to all of my questions. They have an amazing team and they should be very proud of themselves!

★★★★★ — Katherine, Sep 2025

We have not a single regret about having our wedding at O’Briens Sleepy Hollow. To still be hearing from friends and family about how amazed they were with the food, the beautiful grounds. Our decor fit the space so well and was set up perfectly.

Getting married at O'Brien's Sleepy Hollow

O'Brien's Sleepy Hollow comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.

Corporate events & private parties at O'Brien's Sleepy Hollow

Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at O'Brien's Sleepy Hollow — garden venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
