From the moment we first reached out to SkyView Golf Club, their communication was responsive, informative, and super friendly and professional. Jenn was absolutely incredible to work with and I am so happy that she was there with us every step of the way! The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, with stunning views that provided the perfect backdrop for our wedding day. On the wedding day, our bridal suite attendant (Riley) and cabin attendant (Axel) were more than amazing and made our entire experience that much more perfect! Despite the rain that required us to move the ceremony indoors, the SkyView team executed the change flawlessly and made the space look absolutely stunning. Our guests raved about the amazing food and the attentive staff that went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was more than perfect. We had family calling us days after the wedding saying they wished they could be back at our cocktail hour all over again - it was that good!! We couldn't have asked for a better venue and would HIGHLY recommend SkyView Golf Club to any couple looking for an amazing, worry-free wedding experience.

Waterloo Village is a truly magical venue, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience there. We first visited for a wedding and were immediately captivated by the rustic charm and historic atmosphere. After seeing how seamlessly everything ran that day, we knew it was the perfect place for our own wedding. The staff at Waterloo Village is outstanding—extremely friendly, helpful, and refreshingly low-pressure. They genuinely focus on making your day special without pushing you to spend beyond your budget. Their professionalism and warmth made the planning process enjoyable and stress-free. One of the highlights is their catering partner, JAM. Their commitment to farm-to-table dining is evident in every dish. Many of the ingredients are sourced fresh, some even from their urban garden, which adds a special touch. The food is not only fresh but absolutely delicious. If you’re looking for a beautiful venue with incredible staff and top-notch food, Waterloo Village is a fantastic choice!

Mountainville made our wedding absolutely AMAZING! Lauren, James, and their team were incredible from start to finish - always so helpful, organized, knew what they were doing, filled in our gaps, and just made the whole thing so easy. We didn't hire a wedding planner, and it was totally doable to plan our wedding ourselves with Lauren on our team acting as Day-of-Coordinator. Their packages were great and SUCH a good deal for what we got. We received numerous comments stating that our wedding was great (some even called it the "best wedding ever!"), and Mountainville is definitely the reason why - the grounds are absolutely gorgeous, the staff was attentive and helpful throughout the night, and everything ran like a well-oiled machine. Not to mention that the food was absolutely amazing, and there was plenty of it! I wholeheartedly recommend Mountainville Manor to any couple planning their wedding!

I had my wedding on 9/26/25 and the venue looked so beautiful! Even better than when I toured it back in November. Carmela and Mona were so helpful and accommodating during the planning process. There were so many last minute changes and hiccups like transportation vendors falling through, but Carmela was able to help me book last minute transportation that was even bigger than I was expecting! Everything went so much better than I imagined and all the guests were so impressed with the venue and food! Evette (I hope I’m spelling her name right) was my bridal attendant the day of. She was fantastic, made sure I was no longer on my phone, helped with transportation throughout the venue and kept me calm during the ceremony. I can’t thank them enough for making this day so special!

Gabe and the entire crew at HH knocked it out of the park. The entire day went flawlessly, they worked seamlessly with our vendors, set up the rooms better than I could have ever imagined. Not to mention the space itself/location is GORGEOUS….but funny enough, we booked the space for the insane views of NYC, but happened to get the foggiest day of December - it. Did. Not. Matter. !!!

Stone House is an incredible venue on the north shore of Staten Island. We called it our “upstate Staten Island wedding” because it feels upstate while still being in NYC! We had our wedding here back in October 2025, and it went so well. Nadia and Bella were so patient with us as we navigated our planning, and the staff on the day of were equally great! Everyone raved about the food, and the atmosphere was perfect. We lucked out - the rain held off which made for a truly beautiful outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour. I think the rain scared some à la carte diners away that night, so it really felt like we had the whole restaurant to ourselves. Thank you again to Nadia, Bella and everyone at Stone House for helping make our wedding perfect!

The venue itself is a hidden gem—not because it should stay a secret, but because more couples should know about it. The setting is breathtaking, with sweeping views of the reservoir, graceful weeping willows, and beautifully maintained grounds that make you feel like you’ve escaped the city, even though you’re only minutes from it. Inside, the industrial architecture is elegant, warm, and timeless. The space has so much character that we hardly needed additional décor because the venue itself is the décor. One of the biggest reasons we chose The View was its location. I wanted the beauty and tranquility of a park without sacrificing the energy and charm of an urban setting, and this venue delivered both perfectly. Our guests stayed in vibrant Downtown Jersey City, enjoyed everything the city has to offer, and took quick, inexpensive Ubers and Lyfts to the venue. It struck exactly the balance we were hoping for: a gorgeous natural setting with all the convenience of a city wedding. As a lifelong NYC girl, I also loved introducing our guests to Jersey City. They got to experience its beauty, character, and incredible food scene without ever needing to venture into Manhattan. Our guests loved moving between the indoor and outdoor spaces throughout the evening, and we received countless compliments on the venue. The food was phenomenal—beautifully presented, delicious, and genuinely some of the best wedding food many of our guests had ever had. If I could offer one suggestion, it would be to consider adding one more day-of staff member during key moments. Ivy was clearly managing an incredible amount behind the scenes, and having another team member available during transitions would make an already outstanding experience even more seamless. This isn’t a reflection on Ivy—quite the opposite. She was extraordinary, and the number of responsibilities she handled so gracefully speaks to just how valuable she is. The entire team made us feel like our wedding was just as important to them as it was to us. Their warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail created a celebration that exceeded every expectation, and we are so grateful. If you’re considering The View at Lincoln Park, don’t hesitate. It is one of the most beautiful, professionally run, and genuinely special wedding venues in the region. We would choose it again in a heartbeat.

We had our wedding at Liberty House, and to say it was perfect would be an understatement. From start to finish, the experience was beyond anything we could have imagined — even with a last-minute weather shift that could’ve thrown everything off. It rained on our wedding day, which meant our outdoor ceremony had to be moved. The Liberty House team transitioned the ceremony into the reception room so quickly and beautifully that it felt like it had been the plan all along. It was seamless, elegant, and still carried all the magic we had dreamed of. Danielle Villa was our planner and honestly, we can’t say enough about her. She was incredible — professional, calming, and truly dedicated to making our day unforgettable. She made herself available on weekends, late nights, and any time we needed a call or check-in. We trusted her completely with one of the most important days of our lives, and she outdid herself in every way possible. Danielle didn’t just help us plan a wedding — she ran the show with grace and precision. Gabby, our day-of assistant, was also a total rockstar. My partner and I didn’t even have a chance to think about a drink or a bite to eat — she made sure we were always taken care of, without us even realizing how much she was doing behind the scenes. Every little detail, every moment, Gabby was right there, keeping everything running smoothly and ensuring we were comfortable and stress-free. The staff overall was phenomenal — warm, attentive, and professional. The view was absolutely insane (you just can’t beat that NYC skyline backdrop), and the food… wow. Every bite was incredible, and our guests are still raving about it. We genuinely can’t thank Liberty House enough for making our wedding the most beautiful, stress-free, and special day of our lives. If you’re considering having your wedding there — do it. You will be in the absolute best hands.

We knew we wanted to host our wedding in Jersey City so our guests could enjoy the skyline and the water views. After viewing multiple venues, we landed on Maritime Parc for 7/20/24 and it was the best decision we made. Our wedding planning ran smoothly because we worked with Maritime’s team. Working with Priscila, the sales manager, was like working with family. She was available whenever I needed her which made getting answers to questions quick and easy. She went above and beyond her role. This venue offers a classy food tasting and cake tasting at their restaurant. Even though they host weddings every weekend, they made us feel that ours was very special and important. We appreciated working with Alexis on our timelines and floor-plan. She was very organized and thought of all the little things that we never would have!! Our day of Captains and Bridal Attendant, Marc, Rita and Patricia were the best!! Always there when we needed them and so so kind. My family members raved about their helpfulness. The entire staff at Maritime (servers, bartenders, valet, etc) were professional and attentive. It is rare to have such good and consistent service at a wedding. Lastly… the FOOD. What other wedding venue serves Scallops over braised short ribs?? None! Choose Maritime for a stress free wedding year!

We booked Maxwell Alley for our baby shower and couldn't have been happier with our choice. From the moment we reached out, their team responded within the hour (or less) and worked with us to nail down every detail—from the flowers to the final setup. The open plan layout is perfect for weddings, giving you flexibility to create the exact vibe you want, and their staff was attentive throughout the day, making sure nothing fell through the cracks. What really impressed us was how reasonable their pricing was and how willing they were to work with our budget without cutting corners. They stayed flexible as our plans shifted, which took so much stress off our shoulders during planning. We'd recommend Maxwell Alley to any couple looking for a thoughtfully designed space with a team that actually cares about making your day special.

Even before stepping foot inside 87 Sussex it already checked a lot of boxes for us. It's a stylish restaurant with a quality menu, walking distance from our church, and not a wedding factory like so many of the larger venues in the area are. From the moment we starting figuring out logistics with Emily we knew we lucked out. Emily was responsive, communicative, and helpful in accommodating our requests and finding solutions to any issues that arose in the planning process. The day of the wedding was everything we hoped for and more. The weather was perfect, so our guests took full advantage of the space- indoor and out. After dinner the downstairs tables were moved to accommodate a dance floor. It was a fun, intimate party with family and friends. From the cocktail hour through the dinner, the food and drinks were elevated, delicious and bountiful. Three months later our guests are still raving about the food. It's not often that wedding guests compliment the staff as much as the dinner itself, but that was also the case at 87 Sussex. The bartenders, hosts, management, and waitstaff were in a festive mood and incredibly attentive to all of our guests. It all made for a special, once-in-a-lifetime celebration.

We had our wedding at Maman Jersey City and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Katie, the manager, was responsive from day one and worked hard to accommodate all of our dietary requests. On the day of our wedding, the entire team - from the kitchen staff to the bartender to the on-site manager - worked very hard to keep everything running smoothly. Every detail felt exquisite, and the space itself was beautiful. The staff genuinely cared about making sure our guests were happy and taken care of throughout the night. We'd recommend Maman to any couple looking for a venue with both delicate, thoughtful service and a stunning setting. Also, in terms of food - our guests loved everything! Especially the desserts, the vegan wedding cake was gorgeous and so delicious.

We were incredibly lucky to have our wedding at Five Boroughs. We loved the flexibility to make the event exactly what we wanted in terms of decor and food as well as the actual logistics of the wedding itself. We chose to get married and have cocktails on the production floor, then party in the taproom, with two food trucks at the curb. It was a great size for a 68-person event, although I can see it working for a slightly larger crowd, too. Five Boroughs worked with our wedding planner to iron out the kinks and help get the timing right, which was especially crucial as we were the first wedding they ever hosted. From an accessibility standpoint, it also worked out well since parking wasn't a challenge and the train is right there (and Melody Lanes is right there for afterparty considerations...). The space is incredibly photogenic as well. Just a lovely night to remember; highly recommended.

From our first meeting with Giovanna and Juan, we knew Cafe Spaghetti was the right choice for our wedding. We wanted an intimate ceremony and dinner party for about 65 guests, and we knew that dancing was not going to be a focus, but rather just togetherness with our favorite people. The Cafe Spaghetti team made the entire planning process so easy, and were always quick to respond to us. The team gave us tons of options for food and drink, and even handled tent rental (for cocktail hour in the backyard next door) and party favors so we didn't have to stress about those details. On our wedding day, the space was just gorgeous, and the food was absolutely delicious (can't stress this enough!) and plentiful (can't stress this enough either!) – our guests couldn't stop talking about it. The Cafe Spaghetti team helped us to create an intimate and warm celebration that felt truly special. We got everything we dreamed of for an incredible value, and we can't recommend them enough.

I love photographing weddings at Manhatta restaurant in downtown Manhattan. The team at Manhatta couldn't have been more professional, accommodating and friendly! The last couple I photographed at Manhatta had such a great time, which was evident in the joy and love in the photos. The rooms were infused with light and a beautiful warm glow at sunset. The views of the city were breathtaking - the guests were very impressed. There was ample room for the couple of have a band perform and to also dance the night away with all of their family and friends. I highly recommend this venue!

There were quite a bit of rules and miscommunications along the way. This made the experience, especially during the end of the engagement season and the actual wedding day a bit dramatic and exhausting. However, this could be avoided if every single detail is ironed out from the very beginning and you are giving consistent reminders of what you're anticipating your day to be like. Overall, the venue is gorgeous and every single area of it is grounds for awesome photo-ops. On a gorgeous day, you will absolutely not regret choosing this location. Not only is it super affordable, but they also give you the freedom to pick your other vendors to create your ideal wedding (as almost everything else is kind of "a la carte"). A bonus is that you get the whole grounds on your wedding day, so that's exciting for you and your guests!
