Fortune Valley Manor

I was at FVM for the O'Rourke's wedding on 9/20/2026. Kerri and team were incredibly helpful throughout the day. Even though the weather was less than ideal (2+ inches of rain forecasted, yikes) everything ran smoothly on their rain plan, thanks to the venues covered front and back porches/patio areas. She and her team did everything in their power to create the best possible experience for the couple and guests thorough the event. Their care and professionalism is markedly above the way many other venues and planners conduct themselves.

I truly can’t put into words how much I love Fortune Valley Manor and its owners Kerri and Frank. The venue is absolutely pristine, complete with the most gorgeous barn and impeccable landscaping. Kerri, the owner and in-house wedding planner, is truly an amazing person and exactly who you want planning your wedding! She is high-energy, enthusiastic, incredibly positive, and she truly pours her heart and soul into making sure your day is perfect. She makes sure that not a single detail is missed and is able to make the whole wedding planning process feel fun and stress free. I always looked forward to our planning meetings each month, and really miss chatting with her now that the wedding is over! Kerri also has great relationships with many vendors in the area, which makes it easy to check things off the to-do list when putting together your team for your big day. Our wedding day was an absolute dream and everything went off without a hitch! Kerri and her team make sure that the day runs perfectly smoothly while also making sure you are having the best time ever! Kerri even goes out of her way to take plenty of photos and videos on her personal phone to share with you. I also have to mention my bridal attendant, Mia, who did an absolutely incredible job taking care of my husband and me all night long. She made sure we always had food and drinks, kept an eye on all the small details, and made sure that my lipstick was perfect all night long! Having her by our sides was so helpful and allowed us to completely relax and enjoy our big day. Our wedding truly felt like a fairytale, and it was all made possible by the incredible team at FVM! We are forever grateful to everyone at FVM for making our wedding dreams come true! Choosing FVM was the best decision we could have ever made, and we could not recommend more!!

Where do I even begin?! From the moment we drove onto the property to tour the venue, we were completely blown away. The landscaping is absolutely impeccable and the spacious modern barn is stunning. Our guests continue to talk about the unique venue, the delicious food (shout out to Chef Charlie and his team), and FVM's hospitable staff and owners. We made the bold decision to plan a wedding this year in just under 6 months and we couldn't have done it without Kerri, who is not only the owner but also works with you as your personal wedding planner. She knows EVERY possible local vendor to work with which helped move things along so seamlessly. There was so much to do in such a short period of time yet Kerri made it fun and feasible! We actually were excited for every one of our planning calls (and still miss them...). If you are looking for an unforgettable experience and wedding day, look no further than FVM. I promise you won't regret it :)

There aren't enough words to say how grateful we are to the Fortune Valley Manor team for executing our dream wedding. From the very beginning of the wedding planning process, Kerri and Frank took great care in listening to our concerns, providing excellent advice and amazing vendors, and helping our vision come to life, crossing every T and dotting every I. They truly display a "give a shit" attitude that I haven't encountered anywhere else. I can't recommend this venue enough for anyone in the Hudson Valley looking for an all-inclusive venue or even anyone who is willing to travel for a "destination wedding" like my now husband and myself. We had a truly memorable day and felt that the entire staff displayed a great amount of love and care towards us. I think everyone was also very excited on our special day since it was the first Saturday since November that it hadn't rained in upstate New York! Chef Charlie and his team were also incredible to work with and created an amazing menu selection -- if only my dress could let me fit in more food!

An absolute dream of a wedding venue! I recently got married at FVM in early September and could not recommend more. So many positive things to say… see below! First and foremost, the venue is tucked away in the most charming area of the Hudson Valley, surrounded by beautiful greenery and very well-kept grounds. Our guests not only raved about how gorgeous the space was, but also how fantastic the food was (s/o to the King, Chef Charlie), how the drinks were superb (a wedding essential), and how the staff was super helpful and friendly (thank you FVM team)! However, the true gem behind it all is Kerri—the amazing owner of the venue who also becomes your planner/coordinator and helps make the magic happen! Kerri is the most passionate, hardworking gal in the business. She will LITERALLY do anything and everything to make her couples wedding day a dream. As someone who recently relocated to the west coast and was planning our wedding from afar, Kerri went above and beyond to help make our planning experience seamless. She was super cost-conscious and accommodating, helping customize every element of our day and reflect our true vision. Even when the weather was looking not so good and I was stressing (emphasis on the stress), the FVM team had plans A-Z to ensure the day went on perfectly no matter what. And of course Kerri did everything and more to shuffle some things around so that the whole experience and day of remained seamless. What can’t this woman do?? An extra special shout out to her husband Frank who is the man behind the scenes keeping the space perfectly manicured and gorgeous! And of course kudos to my queen Mia (my personal bridal attendant for the day) who kept me dry from the weather, well fed, and took care of us all night! Final comment: this venue is unlike any venue we toured. It is not only a unique and charming space, but also so personable. In fact, through our venue touring process, FVM stood out as the only one to be so focused and dedicated to your event (vs just being another wedding on their list, booking couples back-to-back-to-back, etc.). Kerri, Frank, and the FVM staff truly have the best hearts and complete emotional ownership to your day, making your wedding experience like no other. The biggest and warmest thank you, thank you, thank you! And look no further for where to have your wedding!
