Today we have continued our introductions with Buffalo Wedding Industry Vendors. It was also today when the spring decided to give us one of the warmest days so far - it was very invigorating!
We planned to visit two very special wedding locations - Salvatore’s Italian Gardens restaurant and The Mansion on Delaware Avenue. Salvatore’s appeared in the most of its lavishness, the lavishness we have not yet seen in Buffalo. We almost twisted our heads off trying to take in the beauty of real crystal chandeliers, old fashioned furniture, circular sofas, stares, Salvatore’s brand seal on the miniature tile floor. We were impressed to learn that the new ballroom of the restaurant can host up to 600 people!!! They also told us that the kitchen we passed (which was like a ballroom itself) is not the only kitchen in the restaurant! And the restaurant can host even 4 weddings at once.
The only drawback to Salvatore’s banquet rooms is that they don’t have windows, but this is very nicely compensated with the lighting and decorations.
It seemed we visited a palace!
Our second stop this afternoon was a place equally impressive - The Buffalo Mansion, a legendary hotel where Faith Hill stayed. Faith Hill prefers king size beds, and so she bought one for The Buffalo Mansion, since they at that point only offered Quinn sized ones. Geno, the owner of this exquisite hotel and events facility giving us a grand tour assured, that even if a bride or groom ran out of the ideas of making their day more special, Geno’s group would not allow the event go ordinary: the whole facility will be candle lit, there can not be just simple table numbers at the reception - they have to be names of the stars, for example. Guests at a reception at the Buffalo Mention are required to be met with live music! Luxury, class and comfort are the tree words that defined The Buffalo Mansion for us. It is an extraordinary location for a special occasion. The Buffalo Mansion can host a party under 170.
After the two meetings we didn’t rush home and soaked up the sun wondering through new to us downtown streets and tooke some pictures.
Salvatore’s:

We could’t resist the temptation from photo shoot…
