Gorgeous venue! My cousin had her wedding there. The seating was spacious and there were 2 bar areas. Everyone had a great time and the wedding photos turned out amazing!

The Cracker Factory is an absolutely beautiful venue! This was the only one we toured and as soon as we saw it, we knew it was the one for us. Even though we had a smaller amount of guests (70), it didn't feel too empty at all despite the large room size. Ashley and Brandon were endlessly helpful and so friendly that many of our guests came up to me to say how great they were. During the planning period, all my questions were answered quickly over email, and phone calls / in-person meetings were offered as well! From the beginning of setup the day before, to the outdoor ceremony, and the end of the reception, everything went smoothly - we never had to worry about the small details because Ashley and Brandon had everything covered. Thank you again to The Cracker Factory!

My husband and I got married at the Cracker Factory in June and we seriously could not recommend it more! Firstly, Amy is such an amazing owner and truly a pleasure to work/plan with! She was there anytime I emailed her to ask her a question, or even willing to hop on a phone call. She provided us with a list of recommend vendors (which helped immensely since we are from out of town), helped us decide what speciality drinks to choose, created multiple floor plans for us to choose for our reception, figure out how to hang our bar sign, etc. Amy really helped to ensure that our wedding day went perfectly without a hitch. She checked us multiple times throughout the process, on our wedding day, and even checked in a few weeks after! Second, I think the pictures speak for themselves regarding the venue space. It is absolutely breathtaking! Our guests are still talking about it to this day. My husband and I were looking for a venue that has a beautiful exterior, as well as an interior, since we chose to have our ceremony indoors. We both have very different styles, but the Cracker Factory blends industrial modern (my style) with antique rustic charm (my husbands). In the end, we were both were very happy! Additionally, we were looking for a space where we did not have to spend a ton of money, or put in a ton of effort, in regard to decor because the space itself provided that. The venue provided so many different opportunities for different photos in great natural lighting as well. Outside with the vine covered wall, back in the corner with the old cement and brick, the front of the building with the fire escape, in front of the elevator, upstairs on the third floor. The variety in settings in all our photos is stunning! We would get married there 1,000x over if we could! Photography: @boyko_photography_ on Instagram

Our wedding here was just incredible. The space was beautiful and somehow felt both spacious and intimate for our 102 guest wedding. The light through the big windows felt magical through the ceremony and cocktail hour in the back bar, and the string lights and disco ball were perfect for dinner and dancing. All of our guests had a great time! Throughout the planning process Amy and her whole team were super helpful and communicative, and stepped up when plans went awry to make sure our day was still perfect.

Attended a wedding at The Cracker Factory, area was spacious and comfortable for approximately 100 people. Rustic factory setting with everything needed - bar, table setting, assembly seeting, lounge areas. Would recommend for gathering of any kind.

We were so happy with The Cracker Factory from start to finish! My husband and I met in college in Geneva and were looking for a venue there that was a little more unique and modern than a traditional winery space. The Cracker Factory is gorgeous, and Amy and Brandon were great to work with -- they were accommodating and gave us layout ideas, and had really strong relationships with all our vendors, which made the logistics super easy. They are hands on and helpful, but also extremely relaxed, for the perfect mix of getting things done and keeping everyone at ease. Having both the ceremony and reception there went really smoothly, and all our guests raved about how beautiful everything was. As a plus, the acoustics in the space are really nice, so we didn't need a microphone for our ceremony singers or our officiant. We took a few photos in the unfinished upstairs space as well, which turned out to be a gorgeous spot. Overall, we are about as happy as you can be with how everything turned out. Highly, highly recommend!

This beautifully restored warehouse set in the Finger Lakes Region was perfect spot for our wedding. We absolutely loved having our reception at the Cracker Factory. We could not have asked for a more perfect space. We wanted somewhere that was simple and understated, that could be decorated but didn't need to be, where all of our guests could be in one space together, and that was architecturally intriguing. The Cracker Factory achieved all of this and more. We got so many compliments from guests as to the unique space that we had found and the back patio was an amazing addition! Maggie, Amy, & Brandon were so wonderful to work with and incredibly helpful. They worked well with all of our vendors and were extremely helpful and responsive at all points in the wedding planning process. We could not recommend The Cracker Factory will always hold a very special place in our hearts & we could not recommend it more!

Not only is the Cracker Factory a beautiful hidden gem, but every person on the team is amazingly considerate, kind, and helpful. Ashley, Brandon, and Amy were a joy to work with from the initial tour to all email correspondence, the day of and even when picking up our decor the day after. We stumbled on the venue in a random Google search and decided to check it out while passing through after the holidays, and were blown away by the venue's layout, architecture, interior design, and features. It was everything we wanted and more. They provided us a very detailed list of recommended vendors covering everything from furniture rentals to catering, even hotels and airbnbs in the area. Their bar service packages were expertly tailored and they even had NA beer and wine which quite a few of our guests really appreciated. Brandon and Ashley were like extra coordinators during our tea ceremony, welcome party, and wedding day. They are extremely understanding of cultural ceremonies and were happy to boil water needed for our tea ceremony and set up the necessary seating and tables for it. Brandon was so attentive to us and our whole wedding party and family. We got so many compliments on his friendliness and kindness, as well as how beautiful and unique the venue is. Ashley was so quick to respond and answer any questions we had weeks and days leading up to our wedding. When we were visiting shops and places in the Geneva area a couple days leading up to the wedding, everyone in the community gave them such high praise, telling us we were in great hands, and they couldn't have been more right. Everyone at the cracker factory is professional, kind, communicative, and fun. They helped us have an incredibly fun and stress-free wedding. We couldn't recommend this space and this team enough.

This was a wedding venue for a wedding and reception in one spot. Cater and open bar. Dinner was fab, served home style Shared serving plate and passed down. 2 bars , pool table and shuffle board. 3 or 4 bartenders inside and outside gathering spots. Quite nice

Went here this past weekend for a wedding. Call building you have to walk up a flight of stairs to get to the event space. But it's pretty well opened so you can see everything that's going on although there can be columns that can block your view, but it was not a problem. The tables are decorated nicely And the chairs were pretty comfortable. Food was served family style. We had a chicken dish, a steak dish and veggies. All good. The veggies were a little weird because they had cinnamon on it but I enjoyed them. The cocktail hour was in a different space and that was really good. They had a charcuterie board and passed around hors d'oeuvres. My favorite was the beef Wellington and the shrimp cocktail. The tacos were good too. Let me borrow. It was a little salty and the pasta that came with it a little overdone. Dessert was OK. The cake was a little dry. They had a vanilla sundae bar which was fun but I did enjoy the Smore making station that they had. We ended the night leaving with a bacon, egg and cheese on a bagel and it was warm. Those who took it said they enjoyed them. we had over 150 people and never felt crowded in the room. Room to dance without feeling you're on top of each other.

I had my wedding ceremony and reception here several weeks ago and I can not say enough good things about this venue. From day one of wedding planning, I knew I didn't want to be in a generic banquet hall or ballroom. The Cracker Factory caught my eye because of how unique and charming it is - beautiful wooden flooring, white brick walls, and huge windows gives this venue an industrial yet rustic vibe that I absolutely love. The venue was beautiful in pictures, but on our wedding day it was absolutely stunning. The venue is owned by a lovely couple, Amy and Brandon. It is clear that they have put an immense amount of love and hard work into this building. They have truly breathed new life into it. Maggie, the event coordinator, was an absolute joy to work with - friendly, patient, helpful, and accommodating. All three of them made sure that my husband and I had the most perfect day, and I can not thank them enough!

This is such a charming venue. The refurbished building and the atmosphere was amazing. We didn't get a chance to try the food, but the drinks and service were great!

We had the most perfect day at our wedding on August 31, 2019 at the Cracker Factory and it was all thanks to Maggie, Amy, and Brandon. In the months leading up to the wedding, Maggie worked around the clock to make sure that everything went smoothly. I called and emailed her constantly with various questions and she always answered immediately. Maggie even helped me set up a projector so that we could play a surprise video to honor my dad who is a quadriplegic and could not dance with me for the father/daughter dance. Maggie is so calm and organized that you instantly feel relieved just knowing that she will be involved in the process. Not only does she have incredible work ethic, but she is a joy to be around. We had the pleasure of meeting Amy and Brandon at our wedding as well and we were blown away by their hospitality and easy going nature. They work hard to not only make sure that you are happy with the space, but also help with recommendations of vendors in the area that they have worked with (many of which we used and were incredibly pleased with). The Cracker Factory is the most unique wedding venue that I have ever seen and my husband and I received countless compliments on how unique the space was. You will not regret working with them. We are so grateful to Amy, Brandon, and Maggie for our wonderful wedding, which will forever be our favorite day.

I absolutely love this venue! I am a wedding photographer, and this is one of my favorite venues to photograph wedding at. The space is gorgeous, and the owners are amazing to work with. Maggie, Amy and Brandon are there to help throughout your event and do a phenomenal job. The entire space is fantastic to photograph inside, outside, from the top floor to the deck on the back of the space.

This venue is pretty awesome. I attended a concert here on Saturday night, but they also hold wedding receptions. The rustic brick look is gorgeous, and it doesn't stop on the outside. The bathrooms are very clean, and spacious. There is more than one floor, and behind the large painted doors, there is a private room for musicians or a bridal party to get ready. The artwork on the walls was modern, and they also had lots of pretty stringed lights inside, great for a fancier event. The bar at the concert had cans of Rootstock Cider, Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, and Genny. They also had some local wine. It was $5 a bev, and $2 for bottled water. There were a lot of people there, but something about the way the stage was set up, and the bands that were pretty well known, hung in the crowd, it was very intimate for a rock concert. The crowd was a mix of people from the local colleges, and neighboring towns of all ages. I had a great time here, and wouldn't hesitate to buy tickets to another show at this place.

This venue is awesome! My son's wedding was held here and the space was perfect from start to finish. The owners were extremely friendly and accommodating for pre-viewing and pre-planning at the facility, during the event and allowing sufficient time to decorate.
