My bride was so unbelievably happy with Kotecki's hospitality and swift action when things were needed urgently. You can tell that CEO Kate Kotecki has been in the wedding business for many years. The way she organized this wedding was unmatched, and more than I ever expected. From ordering flowers last minute (literally on our wedding day) after an issue with our first batch, checking on us regularly on our wedding day... I cannot put it into words how amazing this woman is. It felt like she was part of the family on our wedding day. She is a professional who obviously has mastered every aspect of weddings / wedding planning. She was so warm and welcoming to us, and stayed by our sides until the very end when the lights went on. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Kate and Koteckis staff for hosting the wedding of our dreams. You are truly an allstar crew, and if I could give you more than 5 stars, I certainly would. The Giangrossos

We had our wedding at Events at Pearl Street in The Webb, and truly could not have been happier…read morewith our experience. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous -- the exposed brick, huge arched doorways, original wood, warm lighting, and historic character were the perfect backdrop for the romantic, vintage-inspired wedding we envisioned. I had a pretty specific decorating vision, and it wasn't necessarily a traditional one. We used tons of ferns and greenery, brass candlesticks and candelabras, candles, vintage gold details, family photographs, and bowls of fruit as our centerpieces rather than traditional floral arrangements. I gave the team fairly detailed instructions for how I wanted everything arranged, and they absolutely exceeded my expectations. They didn't just put our decorations out -- everything felt thoughtfully styled. The little finishing touches they added made the entire space feel cohesive and intentional. We had several meetings leading up to the wedding to work through the décor and all of the smaller details, and I really appreciated how willing they were to help us create something that felt personal to us. The finished room didn't feel remotely like a cookie-cutter wedding. Even a friend of ours who works professionally in events was incredibly impressed with the aesthetic and how beautifully everything was executed. The food was AMAZING and was one of the things we heard about most from our guests afterward. Everyone raved about it. The dessert bar was fantastic, and I cannot recommend the late-night snack station enough. We did pizza, wings, and pretzels, and it was a huge hit. The drinks were great as well. I also really want to mention how well they accommodated dietary restrictions. My brother has celiac disease -- he isn't simply gluten-free by preference, and avoiding cross-contact is extremely important for him. The team was able to provide gluten-free food for him while taking his celiac disease seriously, and he was able to eat at our wedding without having any symptoms afterward. Anyone with celiac disease knows how stressful eating at a large catered event can be, so having him be able to safely enjoy dinner with everyone else meant a lot to us. Another huge bonus is the location for photography. There are so many completely different backdrops right outside the venue -- historic architecture, downtown streets and cityscapes, beautiful buildings, and green spaces. We were able to get everything from elegant architectural portraits to downtown photos to pictures surrounded by greenery without having to travel elsewhere. Most importantly, the Pearl Street team gave us the flexibility to make the wedding genuinely feel like ours. We had a somewhat unconventional aesthetic and a lot of little details that mattered to us, and they took our ideas seriously and executed them beautifully. Walking into the finished space and seeing everything together exceeded what I had pictured in my head. The venue was beautiful, the food was fantastic, and our guests had an amazing time. We would absolutely recommend Events at Pearl Street and The Webb to anyone looking for a Buffalo wedding venue with character, great food, and a team that can help bring a unique vision to life.

Look...everyone from Buffalo knows Pearl street...but let me tell you this experience left me wowed…read moreand happier than ever. Jerrell was my contact and please ask for him if you book here. He was amazing. He handled my emails and requests quickly and with ease, even though I felt like I was bothering him. I saw the space beforehand, but never seen an event at the Stone cellar and I have to say I was blown away with my event. I was looking for the most reasonably priced option to hold a ceremony and brunch, and I got this place for a steal. Brides looking to book a wedding on a budget and that are willing to do the non-traditional thing, I highly recommend the space and doing a brunch. My guest raved about the food and I could go on forever with every detail of amazing customer service and exceptional execution of my vision. I held my entire event here for less than $2000 for 50 people that included the ceremony fee, the $50 bartender fee, the food and unlimited sodas, coffee and tea. I know prices increased since I booked but it's still an affordable option. The stone cellar was perfect and such a beautiful and intimate space for a small group of 50. Please consider this if you're looking for a smaller more affordable option. They now offer micro packages that are incredibly cheap and beautiful. The only thing I will mention is parking behind Pearl is not actually free but the venue accommodated us beyond expectation.

I would 10/10 recommend to anyone looking to host a stunning, unique, photo-worthy outdoor party! Thanks, Jill!

We attended a baby shower at La Galleria but I can totally see how this space would be fantastic…read morefor weddings, parties, or any other event that requires a bit of an elegant vibe. Because of a mix-up at work, we arrived about an hour late. It was clear that almost everyone was done eating or at least finishing. However, the food at the buffet was still hot and fresh. There weren't any apparently available seats at the set tables (it was hard to tell where people were sitting) so we ended up sitting at an unset table right next to the set tables. I was a little surprised that none of the servers seemed to notice that we had sat down and were eating but were missing many of the things from the regular settings. No one asked if we needed water or coffee, and we were completely skipped over when they served cake. In all fairness though, we did arrive an hour late and, with people mingling, it would be hard to know whether we had just arrived or whether we had simply moved from our table to chat with others. That single complaint aside, the food was good, the space was lovely, and the family members who organized the shower had nothing but good things to say about having had it here. (In fact, they had switched from another venue to this one.) I'm a firm believer in reviews that give you the big picture experience. And that I think that experience here is 5 stars. So if you're out in the OP area, consider checking out La Galleria.

The meal was good, I wish once they started serving food they would have put a coffee carafe on each table.

The beginning of our experience was simply amazing! Krystina and Beverly can definitely assist you from miles away.

They are genuinely dedicated to making your experience meaningful and tailored to your preferences. Mr. & Mrs. Gerevics
