What are your wedding requirements?
We require a full buyout of the Lodge for a wedding, with a 2-night minimum stay June through October, either Friday-Saturday or Saturday-Sunday. You must guarantee all 18 rooms. Your guests are welcome to reserve and pay for rooms individually, or we can bill to one master account. If your guests are paying on their own we will give you a special code to let them book the rooms, any rooms not booked will be charged to your master account.
What are your wedding reception requirements?
For a reception with 100+ guests, you will need to buy out the restaurant and have the dinner and reception inside in the main halls in the lodge, or we also have the grounds to accommodate the event outside. If you choose outdoor, you will need to rent a tent. We can make recommendations for a local company. Any outside reception must rent a tent as the weather in the Adirondacks can be fickle and in the event of rain, we wouldn’t have time last minute to reset the inside for 100+.
What are your food options?
We offer a wide range of food options. For a buffet, we start at $60 per person, plus tax and gratuity. We can add in passed appetizers, a cocktail hour, a full-plated dinner or many more premium options. We are happy to provide you with almost anything you want. Chef Ben is available to help you with planning and will work directly with you to come up with the perfect menu.
What are the bar options?
We have a full bar and can provide a variety of options throughout the property. We do not allow outside alcohol to be consumed on premise without prior approval. Selecting the best bar option for you really depends on the style and duration of your event. Cocktail hours, full receptions can be any combination of the following options:
Consumption bar: We charge a master tab for whatever drinks are "consumed" by your guests. This can be unlimited, or you can put a cap on the total. For instance, you might opt to offer a fully hosted bar until $3000 in drinks have been served, then switch to no-host bar (where the guests pay for themselves).
Open Bar: We charge $55 per guest for a three-hour event. Our open bar includes all liquors up to "premium" level (examples: Jack Daniels, Kettle One Vodka, Tanqueray Gin, Johnny Walker Red Scotch). We also offer a $65 super premium bar, which would include the super-premium options (examples: Grey Goose, Johnny Black, Don Julio Tequilas, Hendricks Gin, and specialty cocktails). Basically, this option includes all but the super select (over $15 a glass) spirits. Any additional hours of open bar would be an additional $12/$14 per person, based on the guaranteed event attendance. For a 100-person wedding, an additional hour of premium bar would be $1,200, additional super premium hours would be $1,400.
Wine only: We can pre-select wines for the table and set a maximum consumption limit of only these pre-selected wines, or pair one or more glasses of wine to a fixed menu as part of an inclusive price. All other cocktails and beers would be on a no-host basis with guests paying for their own.
No-host bar: Individuals pay for their own drinks and the host is only charged if the overall minimum for the event is not met.
How do we reserve a date?
To reserve a date, we require a deposit of 50% for the rooms and 20% of the F&B for the event. The lodging deposit may be applied to the F&B charges once individual guests confirm and book all rooms, assuming guests are paying for their own rooms. Deposit is fully refundable 75 days in advance, inside of 75 days to 30 days 50% of the deposit is refundable. Cancellation 30 days or less results in forfeiture of all deposits.
Are there any noise ordinances we should be aware of?
Local noise ordinance requires that all amplified music be finished by 11pm. Your party would be welcome in our bar, but outdoor amplified music would need to end promptly at 10:45.
Anything else we should consider for an event?
These are some additional questions to think about, that will help us plan for your event:
Have you contacted other lodging as we don't have enough rooms for 100+ people and Long Lake books up quickly?
Would you like to hold the ceremony on the property or offsite?
If onsite do you want chairs for everyone?
Would you like a refreshment station at the ceremony?
Will there be a cocktail hour before, or between the ceremony and the reception, would you like passed appetizers?
Would you like a champagne toast?
Where will you be getting your own cake and when/how will it be delivered?
What type of entertainment are you planning? Live music? DJ?
What time frame/schedule are you thinking from start to finish?
You would need to rent a dance floor if the event is outside?
Have you thought about a Rehearsal Dinner and Sunday Brunch, or Welcome Reception when guests arrive at the hotel?
We would love to work with you to make this special day perfect.
