Historic German House - Rochester

We could not have asked for a better day. The German house was beautiful and accommodated all our needs from start to finish. The bridal suite was a perfect spot to get ready in with our bridal party and also freshen up in throughout the night. My father in law especially loved the stage to show off his dance moves. All of our guests raved about the wonderful experience and fun they had at our wedding at HGH. Thank you, thank you, thank you Jessica(s), Chris and staff!!

We had an absolutely incredible experience with the Historic German House! The space is beautiful and can accommodate both ceremony and reception. Jessica and Chris were both a pleasure to work with. The attention to detail was unmatched. Jessica is incredibly knowledgeable, organized, and so helpful during the planning process, and Chris has created a bar experience that is above and beyond your typical wedding. The entire staff the day of the event was so attentive, professional, and kind. We cannot recommend the Historic German House enough!!

I was here for an event not hosted by The German House. They had graciously allowed us to use the space for a meeting as our previous venue is not up and running just yet. The space is gorgeous, though; if you get a chance to go to an event here, take it for sure!

We are thoroughly pleased with our choice for our wedding venue. From the beginning they were communicative and beyond helpful in answering our numerous questions and had a great understanding that we were spending a good sum of money to have a wedding. We never felt they tried to upsell us, but we are pleased we decided to add the bridal suite and upgrade to the premium bar which ended up only adding just over $100 to our bill at the last minute. The premium bar took our 2 signature drinks to the next level and everyone was obsessed! Because we went with the premium bar they were able to create fun, gorgeous, and custom mocktails on the spot for our guests who don't drink! They provide a coordinator to keep the schedule moving and coordinate all logistics with your vendors (something we had budgeted for a DOC and didn't need with them! I am a program planner and designer so I found that this was all I needed, but if you need a wedding planner that would be an outside service). They helped us create a perfect timeline and with my perfectionism we were ahead of schedule for a calm stress free day. Having the two room bridal suite was amazing, relaxing, and provided ample space for us and our families and wedding party. They were prompt and accommodating to all our day of needs and the staff were genuinely excited throughout the night. We had a relatively small wedding just over 50 people and we felt like the space worked well. It didn't feel empty with a small number which was hard for us to find. 1000/10 would recommend. Additionally, we went with their recommendation for a DJ, Brandon Fess, who only works at HGH. We were looking for someone inexpensive and didn't need a typical DJ experience for our small group. He was great to work with to develop our custom dance, cocktail hour, and dinner playlists. He did the normal emcee duties, but was otherwise hands off which is what we wanted! Since it was the first few days after the summer solstice we didn't want a light package since it was only dark enough for the last hour of the night with all of HGH's gorgeous windows providing ample light.

This venue was absolutely incredible. My wife and I got married there a few weeks ago on October 29th and they provided everything we needed and more. We had tons of questions, as neither of us had gone through this process before, and their team was incredible at providing us answers, quickly and efficiently. We also had some odd requests, such as having a cider bar. This wasn't included in any of their packages, but Chris the owner went above and beyond to accommodate our request and it was better than we could have imagined! Their support wasn't just amazing during the preparation, but on the actual day they were incredible at keeping everything running everything. Even when some close family were running late so we decided to delay the start time by a few minutes, they were great at communicating this with all the vendors and everything went swimmingly. Would recommend this place to anyone who enjoys the aesthetic, because it is truly remarkable.
