Get Married in a Gorge – New Park’s Wedding Venue Showcases Romance in the Finger Lakes

The Finger Lakes region oozes romance – the hiking, the waterfalls, the views, the wine, the food…it’s the perfect place to get married. Discover Finger Lake’s premier wedding destination…New Park Event Venue & Suites. Ithaca’s Hidden Hotel, New Park is tucked behind half a mile of fencing, providing peace and privacy for its guests. 

At New Park, you can get married in a classic Finger Lakes setting – a gorge in the forest! You’ll follow the creek past the “Rock Garden” into a clearing – the area opens up and you’re standing under a forest canopy, surrounded by your loved ones. The best part is – the area is completely closed to the public – and you and your closest friends and family can stay on the property all weekend long. 

New Park Event Venue & Suites (newparkeventvenue.com) at 1500 Taughannock Blvd Ithaca, NY 14850 is a stunning and inspirational event and retreat center with several special spaces to accommodate overnight guests. New Park can host any gathering large or small – weddings, reunions, anniversaries, memorials, corporate retreats, etc. New Park also has several incredible suites and cottages with stonework, stained glass, and details that make a romantic and special place to stay. Outside of the suites, the property features several trails to explore the forest and a creek weaves its way through the property. Guests can expect a stay that combines the best of nature and luxury. 

Weddings at New Park feature lawn games, fireworks, and guitars for guests to jam out to by the bonfire after a long day of celebrating. Guests can look forward to complimentary robes and slippers, Japanese bidets, heated floors, and artistic mosaics in every suite. Guests are encouraged to reconnect with nature during their visit by using the complimentary in-room yoga mats and exploring the many trails on the beautiful property. Last but not least…New Park has dog-friendly suites and dogs are welcome at weddings too! And if New Park doesn’t have enough suites, we have cabins just a short drive away as well! Finger Lakes Mill Creek Cabins in Lodi (fingerlakescabins.com) are fully equipped cabins, with private outdoor space, including a fire pit and hot tub! 

NEW for 2024, we have a new property called Cedarwood Event Venue in Trumansburg. We host bands, paint and sips, and comedy at this venue, but it also happens to be the perfect size for a rehearsal dinner! Since this property has a liquor license, we are able to provide bar catering services for New Park. We can also provide off-site bar catering services for any event, so keep us in mind for your backyard weddings and events in venues without a liquor license, or non-profit spaces!
