Mansion at Timber Point — Local services in Town of Islip

Some staff members at this wedding venue were poorly trained:

A loud argument could be heard between staff members when vows were being read. This is unacceptable.

Waitress did not know simple questions such as what meat was inside one of the four dishes, and instead of asking the chef, told us incorrectly that it was chicken rather than beef. She then told us that she does not speak the language on the menu.

There was one water refill before dinner started. It was impossible to find water, and the table left the wedding very thirsty.

For the ice cream bar, the lady in front of me ordered sprinkles, and the attendant proceeded to spray a tower of whipped cream instead. I decided to keep the instructions as simple as possible, and asked for a bit of fudge. My glass ended up with 50% fudge and 50% melted ice cream.

There were multiple missing and dirty utensils. One member of our table had to cut his steak with a fork. Twice, the spoons were so dirty that I had thought someone else had accidentally used my utensils.

While there were some excellent employees such as Sebastian, and the pretzel attendant, there is a pattern of some employees not giving a damn. They could be temp workers hired after covid firings, so this could change in the future. However, I cannot recommend this...

We could not have found a better venue or asked for a better staff! Emma (bridal attendant) and Matt (maitre d) were absolutely amazing and could not have handled everything any better.

Emma was on top of everything from the start, making sure we always had drinks at our table, ensuring my wife had everything she needed, having to remount our sign because a family member knocked it down, and even fixing my ring bearers sign string that broke right before he walked out. She was superwoman!

Matt always checked in on us and made sure we had no issues and any concerns we had he took care of right away. He ensured the entire ceremony and reception ran smoothly and that our day was perfect.

Everyone absolutely loved all the food. They especially loved the short rib, roasted potato Hour derves, chicken & waffle Hour derves, and the champagne that was provided.

The ceremony on the patio was beautiful and thanks to a sunny day and the perfectly groomed golf course in the background, it was nothing short of stunning.

I'm glad we made the right choice after meeting Lauren for a tour. Lauren was also great and broke all the costs down neatly and transparently which was a major selling point for me.

If you want a smooth wedding day, get married at...

The moment my husband and I walked into Timber Point, before even speaking to anyone, we knew it was the perfect spot. The beautiful property on the golf course, located right on the Great South Bay, created the ideal setting for our wedding. Lauren greeted us right away, and after booking our date we even popped a bottle of champagne to celebrate. From that day on, Lauren was incredible throughout the entire planning process. She answered every question—whether over email or in person—and always made us feel calm, confident, and cared for. Even the showcases and food tastings were wonderful experiences that made wedding planning feel exciting and special. On the day of our wedding, our maitre’d CeCe and our attendant April went above and beyond. They anticipated every need, from bringing us food and drinks all night to making sure our guests were taken care of—no request was too big or too small. Their attentiveness truly allowed us to relax and enjoy every moment. Beyond CeCe and April, the entire Timber Point staff was amazing—from the servers to the bartenders. Everything ran seamlessly, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you to everyone at Timber Point for helping make our wedding day...
