In a groundbreaking move that promises to redefine the wedding experience, Partyman Catering has announced the acquisition of Avon Century Barn, now The Wells Estate, a picturesque venue located in the Greater Rochester area that has captured the hearts of couples for the past decade.
This strategic acquisition marks a pivotal moment in Partyman Catering’s commitment to delivering unparalleled event experiences. Once a small, family business run with nothing more than a home kitchen and a pick-up truck, Partyman Catering has grown into one of the premiere catering companies in the region. Their rise to prominence is not only because of their culinary excellence but also because of their dedication to custom events and a focus on personalized service – going the extra mile so each client can experience something extraordinary no matter the event size or style.
Now, Partyman Catering can bring its award-winning industry expertise to a new level, entering another area of the wedding industry with the expansion into a venue. The company provides one-of-a-kind event experiences to hundreds of weddings and events each year, partnering with venues across Monroe County, Livingston County, and the Finger Lakes Region. The team has grown to include culinary experts, designers, event leads, and logistic coordinators. With a new creative venture at their fingertips, it will be exciting to see what will be in store for this venue with such a diverse and experienced team whose passion lies in creating immeasurable happiness for its clients.
The Wells Estate, situated on a gorgeous property was carefully restored to its former grandeur in recent years with soaring cathedral-shaped beams and 40ft ceilings showcasing the stunning architecture of the famous venue. The House also adds to the elegance of the experience with a large columned veranda, catching the summer breeze coming off the open Genesee Valley.
Joe Yantachka III, owner of Partyman Catering speaks on this recent acquisition.
“In today’s market, it is paramount to always be improving. New ideas become mundane faster than ever, our team is always looking forward, never risking being left behind in this ever-changing event and wedding market. This opportunity is the next big step in that direction and the entire team at Partyman is excited about reimagining [The Wells Estate] brand and all the opportunities it will bring – making Rochester, New York a true destination for weddings and events.”
In recent weeks, the team has welcomed Heather Luther as Venue General Manager. She has spent over a decade in the industry and studied wedding planning at The New York Institute of Art and Design. Now she is dedicated to bringing a new vision to the venue, creating something unimaginably unique for new event experiences.
