The Fox and Bear Lodge was the perfect venue for our wedding. Janice, who runs the inn, was an absolute delight and took wonderful care of us and our guests all weekend, with her incredible breakfasts being a standout. Jenn, the day-of coordinator, was equally amazing—organized, attentive, and ensured everything went smoothly, allowing us to enjoy our day stress-free. For context, we had 65 people at our wedding total, including us and two children. This felt like the perfect size for our group, especially given the necessity of the tent due to chilly October nights. The lodge itself is charming, with great rooms and fantastic amenities. Despite its location at the corner of two streets, we barely noticed any traffic. While nearby lodging options are limited, most of our guests were satisfied with the Quality Inn just 10 minutes away. The venue struck a perfect balance between outdoorsy and chic, offering more flexibility than other venues. Though there were some additional but reasonable fees, it was wonderful to have our rehearsal dinner, welcome drinks, and brunch all at the lodge, making it the ideal fit for our special day. We are so thankful that we decided to stay over an extra night, without any of our guests, to get to truly enjoy the lodge a bit more before checking out. We could have stayed there all week! * Photo credit: Katie Christ Photography

Bryan was a wonderful photographer who perfectly captured our love. Going into the wedding planning process, I was nervous and a little uncomfortable with the idea of feeling like I was posing and an actor in my own wedding. Bryan instantly made us loosen up and feel comfortable. He also captured so many beautiful details from our day, that otherwise I would have missed. His ability to capture a massive range of emotions from laughter to tears on our day was phenomenal. Furthermore, Bryan is a great professional who is wonderful at communicating, documenting and walking couples through his process. He was so buttoned up on the details and logistics, so that we could completely relax heading into the big day.

Coordinating with Megan, Marley, Paula, Heather, and Tammi made our entire wedding weekend seamless and stress-free. They truly go above and beyond to ensure everything is taken care of, making you feel like family from the very beginning. We stayed in the DeBurgh House for the weekend, and from the rehearsal dinner up until we packed our bags and left at the end, everything was perfectly managed. The entire staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, and made us feel like we had known them forever. It was clear that the team at Perona Farms is dedicated to making every couple’s day as special as possible. The venue and grounds were impeccably maintained. Despite having three weddings that weekend, we never saw another bride, which made us feel like we had the place all to ourselves. It was truly our day. The food was absolutely outstanding, and guests are still talking about how delicious it was almost six months later. We held our reception in the Refinery, and it was absolutely gorgeous. The space is stunning, and our team and vendors had an easy time working with Perona Farms, as they were accommodating and made setup a breeze. Without a doubt, we cannot recommend Perona Farms enough. It’s a venue that will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

We could not recommend Scarlett enough as a wedding photographer. My husband and I both feel rather shy in front of the camera and she instantly made us feel so comfortable, at ease and ourselves. The best part was that part of Scarlett’s wedding package includes an engagement shoot where we got to meet Scarlett, get to know her style and have amazing photos from one of our favorite places. This shoot made the wedding a breeze as we knew her and we’re excited to see her to create her magic behind the camera. We can’t wait to see how our wedding photos turn out based on how much we love our engagement shoot. We cannot recommend her enough!

I can’t say it enough that The Rockleigh should be at the top of everyone’s venue list. They were our 2nd of 3rd venues we were touring and we never went to our 3rd venue tour. My words simply can’t portray how magical a wedding at The Rockleigh will feel. As soon as you walk in we were hit with a “wow” feeling. The venue is simply beautiful and left us and all our guests in awe. On top of a classy and beautiful venue, the service the staff provided is truly unforgettable. They will be at your side the entire day making sure you don’t have to lift a finger and ensure that your day goes as exactly as planned (and might I say better than you planned it to go). The food was also the most flavorful dishes I have ever had the privilege of enjoying. I hope this review helps other couples decide that The Rockleigh should be where they have their wedding.

Featuring a working mill, blacksmith shop, active church, and several beautiful historic houses, Waterloo Village is a time capsule surrounded by an air of tranquil beauty. With its rich history, Waterloo Village is the perfect setting for weddings. Boasting two spectacular indoor event spaces—the newly-renovated meeting house and the rustic pavilion—in addition to its spacious outdoor compound, Waterloo has the resources and ambiance to make your special occasion a memorable success. As a remarkably well-preserved example of a 19th-Century canal town and the site of a 400-year-old Lenape Indian village, Waterloo Village is an incredibly valuable piece of New Jersey history. Waterloo is open to the public as part of Allamuchy Mountain State Park and home to many events and educational programs to teach and inform visitors about the past. When you choose Waterloo Village as the setting for your event, a portion of proceeds will go towards the preservation and restoration of the site.

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!

Crystal Plaza 

5.0

Livingston, NJ
  • Venue
  • Up to 350 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $40,000

Before it became our beloved event venue, the historic Crystal Plaza was originally a residential mansion. The initial Livingston, New Jersey-based residence was built in the late 1800s by famed architect Stanford White, who was responsible for designing the Tiffany building on Fifth Avenue, the original Madison Square Garden complex among other landmark structures. While the restored building has since been reincarnated as one of the leading wedding and event spaces in the tri-state area, it still maintains the feeling of its 19th century grandeur. Our impeccable, white-glove service begins the moment you arrive. Crystal Plaza hosts only one event at a time, ensuring that our dedicated team focuses singularly on you and your every need. From the elegant Grand Ballroom boasting numerous chandeliers (how the Crystal Plaza name came to be) to the lush gardens that change beautifully with the seasons, there are myriad backdrops to complement your wedding, social affair or corporate event.

The elegance and charm of Crystal Plaza's classic and ornate decor is met with delicious, modern and creative food that makes it the perfect balance for an epic event. And to top it off, their service leading up to and on the day of a wedding is so meticulous that all aspects of the event are 100% covered. They're constantly innovating their menu and looking for ways to make an event personal to each couple so you don't have to feel like your wedding is "cookie cutter" in any way. It's truly always a pleasure and so fun working with the Crystal Plaza team.

We had the best day of our lives at the Madison Hotel! We actually found them through Zola, having never heard of them before. When we toured, we fell in love with the Conservatory, which is ultimately where we had our ceremony and reception. The day was amazing - the food was delicious (and there was so much of it!), the hotel was beautiful, and it was convenient having our guests onsite for all activities (like our after party). I only deducted one star due to communication; I felt like most of the communication was driven by us, such as scheduling our final venue walkthrough. Everyone was very helpful, but I would have liked a bit more communication as a type A planner. Other than that, we couldn’t have asked for a better celebration of our love.
