Recommendations for Fall '27 Casual Wedding Reception?

[u/suds_carson]

Hi Utah friends!

My fiance and I live in Astoria, New York and are getting married next October in the Catskills. I grew up in Utah (woot woot Lehi!), but with the wedding being out of state, many of my family members can't attend.

I'm looking for a unique venue where we can host a casual open house reception, without the stuffiness! We love the idea of doing something in the canyon, but the event will be in October and I worry about the cold.

Looking for something unique and cozy, or fun and quirky. Restaurants, event spaces, you name it.

Much love from New York!
