Belhurst Castle Wedding Venue in Geneva, NY Overlooking Seneca Lake
The Belhurst Castle is an absolutely gorgeous gothic style castle wedding venue in Geneva, New York. Geneva is a beautiful town on the edge of Seneca lake in the fingerlakes region. This area features several gorgeous estates and historic homes and is a lovely spot for a getaway.
The Castl
The Castle itself is stately and sits high on a bluff overlooking the lake. Additionally, you can stay overnight here as well for a full castle experience. This is a very convenient option for getting ready before your ceremony or for the wedding night!
The Ceremony Site
Most ceremonies a the Belhurst Castle take place on the lawn in front of the castle itself overlooking the lake. And though I haven’t seen it done, I also think that it would be beautiful to get married having the castle itself as the ceremony backdrop. If going this route, I think it would be important to close the doors behind the ceremony to stop random guests from walking across.
The Reception Space
This castle wedding venue has a couple of nice spots for a wedding reception. The one I’ve been in is the Meritage Ballroom. This spot is beautiful. There is a lovely patio looking over the lake which is connected to the ballroom. Plus, there are tons of windows throughout to look out at the views.
A Castle Wedding Venue
Belhurst is such a cool place, not just to get married, but to visit on a getaway. It’s obviously great in the summer to cool off in the lake breeze, but I think its fortitude would make it a cozy place to visit or get married at in the winter too!
