About Syracuse

Syracuse is a gateway to the famed Finger Lakes region, located in Upstate New York. As the educational and cultural hub of Central New York, this city is home to Syracuse University, attracting college students and young professionals.

Syracuse is well-connected and consequently a major tourism hub because it has the area's main airport. Enjoy all four seasons and beautiful weather throughout the year. Though the winters are cold with an abundance of snowfall, that shouldn’t stop you from enjoying outdoor and indoor attractions!

Reception Options in Syracuse

Decided on hosting your reception in the Emerald City? Don’t forget about catering, photography, equipment rental, and other options.

  • Equipment Rental
    Look for equipment like furniture, cutlery and crockery, linen, decorations and audio-visual equipment from rental companies in Syracuse. Renting is always a much better option than buying.

    Why not make things convenient and hire a party bus for your guests to travel to and from your reception venue? Public transportation is not very dependable and you would be saving plenty of time if you have your own conveyance.
