“Our wedding weekend at Magnolia was nothing short of magical. The serene setting was the perfect backdrop for our Fall wedding, and everything we dreamed of and more. The peaceful grounds and sound of the stream was such a major part of calming our wedding jitters and keeping us at ease. The cabins provided such a fun way to have our nearest and dearest spend more time with us to make for a more intimate event lasting more than one night. The staff was the most hospitable and helpful when needed, while also giving us enough privacy and space. Cheyenne our event manager went above and beyond throughout the entire process of planning. From the moment we took the tour with her, she assured us we'd be in the best hands for our special day. She provided so much support, advice, information, even friendship during the entire process. She is so passionate about her couples and makes you feel so special and taken care of. Our friends and family raved about the beauty of the venue and can't wait to have a place to come back and stay. Not having a food tasting made us nervous at first but we were extremely pleased and impressed with all of the food, and chef and staff were so friendly and helpful through the planning process and at the event. Cheyenne connected us with Chef Danial and Bartender Tom when we had questions, and everyone was so approachable, friendly, and helpful. It was such a pleasure making new connections with them and we are so excited to have a new home away from home to come stay for anniversaries and getaways.”

“Where do we even begin?! North Shore House was a dream come true for our wedding. We only viewed 2 venues, this being the second, because as soon as we saw NSH we felt at home. Location: It felt like we were on vacation and not in New Jersey, it was so serene and special. Grounds were impeccable. Each season brings a different feel, even with a misty day it was striking with the flowers, antique gates, greenery, etc. Every time we visited off season there was some maintenance being done that just goes to show the love that gets put into it. The history behind the grounds was very interesting to us and we made sure to get a picture with their bar (originally imported from Brooklyn). They have beautifully decorated guest rooms with gorgeous bathrooms and a classy feel. They allowed us to pre-pick who would be given what room to avoid any drama. Our corner room was the newlywed suite and had the best view on the grounds, we felt so special! Service: NSH is a family owned business and they bring charm in everything they do. It was a pleasant surprise that throughout the process we met a new family member running different aspects - the kitchen/catering, grounds work, business/sales, etc! Throughout the experience (and especially day of) they would check in to make sure everything was to expectations. No wonder it felt like we were at home. We must call out that our day of coordinator, Samantha, was a literal dream to work with. She was light hearted, flexible, and felt like a friend helping you plan your day (without any of the drama that you might get working with family/friends :) professionalism was top notch). Special thanks to Eric as well that gave us the initial tour and supported our whole experience. Day Of: It was rainy and they waited until last minute to make the call if we would do outdoor ceremony. Thankfully it lightened up and they set up all the chairs within 30 mins of the start time so that the guests would not sit on soaking wet chairs. I loved how they met up with me (the bride) before the ceremony entrance which made me feel special. They had a bridal attendant Diana that was very friendly and brought us food, champagne, etc. Overall we are so happy we chose NSH to have our wedding. Everything had high attention to detail. The bride's father is a musician and has played hundreds of weddings and in general has high expectations - but he was very impressed with the grounds ("Spotless - you can tell they put in a lot of work") and the food ("This was real restaurant food, not wedding food"). Other family members continue to say how special of a wedding it was and how much they loved the historic Inn. It will always hold a special place in our heart - not only for our wedding, but for the first meeting of our parents, we reserved dinner there exactly 1 year from our date and enjoyed the ambiance, food, and service, getting us all so excited for the big day. Highly recommend this idea for other couples so you can picture what it will be like day of and get a different kind of tasting experience! We are very much looking forward to visiting for future anniversaries! Thank you so much again! - Holly & Ryan Hedderich”
