Albany Country Club

The Albany Country Club provided a picturesque venue and the staffs flexibility and professionalism helped make our dreams come true. They helped from start to finish to allowed the day to flow perfectly!

Since we lived in FL while planning our Capital District wedding, it was quite a task finding the perfect venue - we first thought of having our wedding in FL but all the venues were too small or too dated. Since we both grew up in NY, we spent a few days looking in the Albany area - we knew we wanted an outdoor garden like wedding and once I saw Albany Country Club's amazing outdoor views and Northern feeling, we knew we had to go with NY and ACC! The staff the day of our wedding was outstanding. Kenny, our personal butler for the day, was a dream come true. Anything you needed he was there to help with. Kim and her staff were extremely accommodating on the day as well, and just as I mentioned in my DJ's review, I had to worry about nothing! I was a very organized bride.... with excel spreadsheets and project plans.... but this did not shake Kim or her team, they were very thorough at the rehearsal to ensure my vision was completed - AND b/c I was so 'organized and scheduled' while planning my wedding I didn't want to have to do that the day of my wedding - and Kim made sure I enjoyed my day with my 'project' hat off and my 'bride' hat on! ACC also worked well with a close friend I had available the day of the wedding to help with the layout of all my personal touches. The seating plan of the room came out nice, since we initially had a much larger wedding guest list than those who attended and the food was amazing. They checked with husband and I a few times throughout the reception to make sure everything was going smooth and nothing was needed.
So, if you want a seamless and fun venue you must go with ACC!!

ACC did an amazing job with our wedding ceremony (held on site) and our reception. Their staff are on top of their game! the bridal room they prepared for us was so nice to get ready and spend time before the ceremony. Guests raved about the food, especially the outdoor cocktail hour. A fantastic value all around.

Albany Country Club is a beautiful venue to use as a wedding reception. They have a great outdoor patio for the cocktail hour and just added a brand new bar outside. The room is beautiful and not your typical box of a room! Ken is the man! Kim was very professional! Will highly recommend!

Wow, Albany Country Club really out did themselves for our wedding. We had high expectations for everything with what we had heard from other people but we were completely blown away. Everything was absolutely perfect. Kim and her team are very professional and also flexible. They made sure we had everything we wanted! Our food was amazing, our cocktail hour out on the patio was amazing, our reception room was amazing as was everything in between. I highly recommend having your wedding at Albany Country Club. I can promise that you will not be dissappointed!!!

This was the most important choice we made with the whole wedding planning process and let me honestly tell you that it made all the difference! The Albany Country Club was absolutely perfect! If I could give more than 5 stars, I would in a heartbeat!

The grounds at the Albany Country Club are picturesque. It's a beautiful place for pictures and we are still getting compliments from our guests. We got married in the Albany room; which has stunning views. Then the cocktail hour was outside on their amazing patio. For me, that was one of the club's best features. What a perfect place to get the reception started. It was very classy, yet relaxed and fun. The reception room was decorated beautifully, and the staff paid attention to every detail! They even made the dance floor larger for us! At night the windows offer stunning views of the city. We couldn't have asked for more!

When it comes to the food, well let's just say everything was INCREDIBLE! The cocktail hour had non-stop amazing food, while the dinner was simply delicious. No one left hungry! We even have this running joke about the chicken cordon bleu with my boss because he apparently went through a few trays on his own, and the staff was more than happy to keep bringing him more! The food was first class all the way.

As much as I have raved about the grounds and food, perhaps the best thing about the Albany Country Club was their level of service. Kim Aperance the Assistant General Manager was unbelievable. Forget hiring a wedding planner if you have your wedding here. Kim is an incredible event planner and was there for us every step of the way. No question was ever too trivial. Every vendor we went to raved about working with her. Kim's attention to detail and suggestions were priceless. We felt completely secure that everything would work out with Kim in charge (and it certainly did). I cannot say enough good things about her. The head server Kenny was also wonderful. What a great guy! Literally you would think of something you wanted and before you could even ask for it, it would be in front of your face! He even went above and beyond by packing up all our gifts (even a great present from the country club!), cake, and other things to take home. The rest of the staff from the waiters to bartenders were also first class. Everyone was eager to help and so friendly!

In closing, I cannot say enough good things about the Albany Country Club. They honestly made our wedding the best day of my life. If you want to have an incredible wedding that your guests continually rave about, then choose the Albany...

Kim at ACC is fantastic! The venue is beautiful and the service is impeccable. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking to have a wedding in the area. We got countless compliments from our friends and family about how beautiful the setting was and how delicious the food was- which was just what we hoped for.

Kim at Albany Country Club was AMAZING to work with! During the planning process she was always quick to respond and had some great ideas as well. We had a lot of special requests and everyone was met with "NO PROBLEM". The food was great, the service top notch, and the little touches they provided did not go unnoticed. If you are looking to work with the top in Albany- look no further :)!

Outstanding setting and my guests said it's one of the best weddings they have ever gone too.
The reception was only done...

Overall, we had an AMAZING experience with Albany Country club. I can't say enough great things about Kim, as well as Kenny. Kim was great to work with - so prompt, handled everything professionally, and took care of everything we could ask for! Kenny was the head waiter and took such good care of us, as well. Many guests commented on how great he was. The country club looked so beautiful, I wasn't even upset when we couldn't have cocktail hour outside because of rain! The only reason I gave a 4 for professionalism is because one member of the waitstaff went to each table several times and asked them if she could have the centerpiece from their table.

Kim at the Albany Country Club was great to work..the Country Club is stunning for a reception..it rained on our wedding day but it didn't matter we got great pictures and had a wonderful time..The price was great as well...we couldn't believe what we got for the price..absolutely beautiful..

Kim at Albany Country Club is wonderful to work with. We had the best time planning our wedding (ceremony and reception) there. We had planned on having our wedding outside this past July, but as it rained everyday, including our wedding day, that was not possible. However, the staff at Albany Country club set up the ceremony room inside beautifully! Everything was set up exactly the way I wanted it in the reception space. When the rain finally stopped we got amazing pictures outside with the wonderful scenery around us. Our personal waiter, Kenny, took care of us all night, and the food and drinks were delicious! We didn't have to worry about a thing, because Kim took care of EVERYTHING for us. When the night was over, everything that we had bought was already packed up and ready for my family to take home. The Albany Country Club is not only a beautiful venue, but the staff there is professional and puts the finishing touches on every little detail. We would not change a thing about our wedding day there!

Albany Country Club was a beautiful venue that allowed us to remain flexible in our planning. Our cocktail hour was outside and the reception was in the main hall....however, after a thundershower, the Club got everyone inside within a few minutes and started serving so there was no lag time. Everyone was extremely professional and the food was amazing.

I highly recommend Albany Country Club for a wedding reception. Their service, presentation and food was perfect.

We were thrilled that we booked our reception at the Albany Country Club. They catered to every detail, were extremely professional and had wonderful staff who took care of every detail.
Only challenge was that the assistant manager was the only one who worked on the wedding coordination and she is so busy sometimes it is hard to get in touch with her. Regardless, she made our event perfect and we did not have a thing to worry about!
