Shakespeares Restaurant and Pub

f—specifically the coordinator, Dana—who made our wedding day truly perfect. Dana is a total professional. From our very first tour, she was incredibly detail-oriented, walking us through every package and keeping us on a strict timeline during the entire planning process. On the day of the wedding, she was a force of nature. She was personally setting up dining room tables in the morning and ensuring every single vendor was perfectly positioned. Because of her, we had zero fear of anything going wrong; we knew we were in the best hands. Even our other vendors went out of their way to tell us how much they love working with her! Highlights of the Venue & Service: The Bridal Suite: We spent the morning here for hair and makeup, and Dana ensured we had everything we needed to stay comfortable and pampered. The Food: While we were too busy celebrating to eat much, our guests haven't stopped raving about the chicken and the pasta—it was a huge hit! The Legendary Cookie Table: Being from Pittsburgh, the cookie table is a major priority. The event team spent an endless amount of time creating a display so perfect I actually went into the kitchen to personally thank them. It was a masterpiece! We also have to give a massive shout-out to the bartending staff! They were incredible and truly went above and beyond for us. It’s so easy for the bride and groom to get distracted, but the bartender made sure we both had refills the entire night. We never had to wait or even ask—they were one step ahead of us at every turn. That kind of attentive, personalized service is exactly what makes a wedding feel high-end. If you want a venue that combines a stunning, historic atmosphere with a team that works tirelessly behind the scenes to make your day seamless, book Shakespeare’s. Ask for Dana—she is simply the best in the business!

the first venue we looked at and by the end of the tour with Ms Dana we knew this would be the only venue we'd look at. This was where we were going to have our dream Christmas wedding. Ms Dana was a huge reason why we chose to book this venue immediately. There aren't enough wonderful words in the world to describe her. She is just so full of kindness, positivity, professionalism, knowledge, and warm hugs! I feel like she is part of our family now and needs be at every holiday dinner! Our entire family couldn't say enough good things about her, the venue and the unbelievable food. Our friends and family are still raving about the food. (Highly recommend the Prime Rib!!) We've been planning our wedding for 2 years and in that time we have sent countless emails to Ms Dana bombarding her with so many questions and she was always so quick to respond and very sweet. She eased our mind of any potential stresses we may have had and our entire wedding day went flawlessly and perfectly. It was just absolutely beautiful. It truly felt like something out of a Hallmark movie about a castle Christmas wedding. I had my bridal suite where Christmas music was playing, a beautiful Christmas tree was in it and Ms Dana had a coffee bar, champagne and orange juice set up for my bridesmaids and I! It was the perfect start to the big day. Our ceremony took place outside on their balcony and even though it was a cold December night, they had space heaters set up throughout it and no one even complained about being cold! We even had our rehearsal dinner at the Shakespeare! Sean is the one that helped us get that set up and he was just wonderful! He set us up in our own little private corner of the restaurant that was decorated beautifully and he even created a personalized menu for us. Our friends and family were so impressed with everything at the Shakespeare and I know our wedding will be talked about for years to come, and it's all thanks to Ms Dana and the incredible staff at the Shakespeare. I know they say nothing is perfect, but our day had to be as close to perfect as it can get!

icious, and everything went smoothly.”

d the venue, we met Dana. From the moment we met her, we knew she is extremely passionate about her profession and had full trust in her. Dana was incredibly organized, kind, communicative, professional, and FUN! We loved how she danced with us on the dance floor and hopped in the photo booth fun and enjoyed our day with us! Dana and her team were incredible throughout the whole night. All of the staff were incredibly kind and attentive to every detail. Overall, because of Dana, she made our planning process and our wedding magical!! We will forever be grateful for her help and guidance. We cannot thank Dana and her team enough! We had the best experience working with Shakespeare's and will always recommend them!

what really stood out to all of us, including the guests, was the absolute professionalism, diligence, and disposition of the entire team, especially their coordinator Dana Loftion. Not only did she effectively, quickly, and amicably put up with my million questions through the entire year prior to the wedding, she HANDLED the wedding day without wavering at every single turn. She was one step ahead of every single one of us and knew what I needed before I even knew I needed it. The food was delicious, all of the staff were friendly and happy to help and quick to keep things moving. They let me help set up and decorate as much as I felt I needed to and took over exactly as I wanted. I appreciated all of the time and space to get ready there and also the access to both the Grand Ballroom and Windsor room, as well as the beautiful balcony through the whole wedding day. It went as smooth as imaginably possible.

na managed to coordinate everything and still be there for us every step of the way, especially on the wedding day! Everything was set up perfectly at the venue, and I heard nothing but rave reviews about the food and the service that was provided to my guests. You have no idea how much that means to us. The venue and the grounds were simply beautiful, and I would recommend Miss Dana and Shakespeare’s to anyone planning an event of any kind quite frankly. We knew we made the right choice from the moment we sat down with Miss Dana. She treats you like family and is the consummate professional through and through!

No worries with this venue and affordable. Food was better than anticipated. Again, great venue, especially for those with busy lives. Great local B&Bs. Would recommend one directly across from Geneva College.

and it was perfection. The venue transforms so beautifully! Our experience the entire day was wonderful. The venue’s event manager, Dana and her team were attentive and amazing. I highly recommend!!
