“My experience with Naty was more than excellent! Since the first day we spoke on the phone, I could tell that she was going to be amazing to work with. Super nice, friendly, and patient. After initially talking, she followed up with me and I ended up booking my Bridal trial. Best decision ever!! The trial was so much fun and Naty ensured to nail the look I wanted for my big day. Mind you, this was back in March 2025. As the year progressed, she would occasionally check in with me to remind me to start hydrating, taking care of my skin, and to ensure my bridesmaids were not left out. Skip to February 2026, Naty was on it with the timeline and ensuring to have her team set for us. Week of, she asked me if I wanted to make any changes and confirmed all details. March 7, 2026 (my big day!!) finally came and the morning getting ready was just PERFECT! Naty and her team showed up on time so there were no delays and we were a group of 10 getting hair and makeup done. My mom, my now mother-in-law, and my bridesmaids looked stunning! Moreover, their hair and makeup lasted the entire day. As for me, Naty not only made me feel like a princess with a FLAWLESS makeup and hairstyle but the entire time she was ensuring I was calmed and enjoying the process. I felt so beautiful and radiant on my wedding day!! Also, my hair and makeup latest the entire day. I was ready at 11:20am and took it off at 4:30am after partying lol and it still looked great. A huge thank you to Naty and her team! Great artists, friendly, organized, and responsible! Highly recommend Naty for your big day or any other event! Best decision ever!”

“Our wedding could not have been any better, thanks to Liberty House and their wonderful staff. Aurora was our contact at Liberty House, and she had everything down to a science. I never had to stress about anything. She answered all of our questions quickly and never made me feel dumb for asking the simplest of questions. I truly appreciated her guidance. The food at Liberty House was divine. Truly, their chefs are a league above others. The options we had for food selections were incredible, and we're so happy with everything we picked. Our guests still talk about the mozzarella station! On the day of the wedding, the staff was, in short, flawless. Once we arrived, they were attentive and got us and our wedding party anything we needed. When sending over our decor, I had given them a rough idea of how we wanted things to look. But I never imagined that they'd set up everything so beautifully! They took my one-sentence description and turned it into a masterpiece. Throughout the night, the staff was always there to help. From walking in my dress to getting me hot water when I was freezing, they were always ready to help. When my drink was low, they got me a new one. When I started to leave without my shoes on, they grabbed me some flip flops. When we decided last-minute that we wanted to have a rehearsal dinner at the Madison Rose, they made the process seamless. My wedding wasn't stressful. I felt like a guest at my wedding thanks to their staff. The grounds are gorgeous, the food is to die for, and the staff is exceptional!”

“Our wedding on May 1, 2026 was truly the best day of our lives, and the entire Hudson House team exceeded every expectation we had. We had a bit of a rocky start during the initial booking process, but once Elena, the General Manager, stepped in and connected us with Gabriel, the Director, everything became seamless. From that point forward, we felt completely taken care of. The food tasting alone was an experience unlike anything we've ever seen. It was an incredible feast and gave us a firsthand look at how Hudson House executes events and the level of service they provide. The food was absolutely outstanding, and our guests are still talking about it weeks later. One of the things that made our wedding feel extra special was having the second-floor room available for cocktail hour instead of the overlook above the reception space. While both spaces are beautiful, having a completely separate floor created such an incredible guest experience. Many guests thought the cocktail hour space was the reception itself, only to be amazed when they discovered there was another floor for dinner and dancing, followed by the Stork Club for the after-party. Everyone loved the progression of the evening and how each part of the celebration had its own unique space. The cocktail hour was truly next level. We received countless compliments about the amount of food and the variety of stations. Guests repeatedly told us they had never seen so many options at a wedding. One detail that made a huge impact was having our signature his-and-hers drinks already waiting for guests as they entered cocktail hour. People loved being able to grab a drink immediately instead of standing in line at the bar, and it was one of the most complimented touches of the night. What impressed us most, though, was the service. Every single staff member was warm, friendly, attentive, and accommodating. If a guest needed something, it was handled immediately. The professionalism and hospitality were truly exceptional. A special thank you goes to Maya, my bridal attendant, who was absolutely incredible from start to finish. She was by my side all day, constantly making sure I had water, checking on me, helping me stay hydrated, and ensuring I had everything I needed. She even helped clean the dirt off the train of my dress after photos. Maya was calm, thoughtful, diligent, and genuinely cared about making my day perfect. Before we left, she made sure all of our belongings were packed and organized, and she carefully packed up the food and cake I requested to take home since I knew I probably wouldn't get a chance to eat much during the wedding. Thanks to her, we were able to enjoy so many of the amazing dishes once we got back to our hotel. Gabriel was equally incredible throughout the night. Anytime I noticed something that needed attention, no matter how small, he addressed it immediately. Knowing he was there overseeing everything allowed us to relax and fully enjoy our wedding day. Hudson House delivered beyond our wildest dreams. The venue is stunning, the food is phenomenal, the service is unmatched, and the entire team genuinely cares about creating an unforgettable experience. Everything ran so smoothly that we were able to be fully present and enjoy every moment. The only downside is that the day goes by way too fast. We honestly wish we could do it all over again. We cannot recommend Hudson House enough.”

Stem Productions truly went above and beyond to make our special day perfect, and we can't stop recommending them enough. Their quality of work and value is unparalleled.”

Oak Ridge, NJ

  • All-inclusive

  • Starts at $11,200

Casa Bianca Banquets has been family owned and operated in Oak Ridge since 1993. Sam, our owner, still runs the kitchen - not a catering contract, not a rotating chef. It's why guests are still talking about the food weeks later. We host one wedding at a time. Your ceremony, cocktail hour and reception all happen here, with no second party competing for the staff or the parking. The ballroom seats up to 250 under crystal chandeliers, with a grand staircase and tall windows that mean you spend less on decor and still get the photos you wanted. Packages are all-inclusive: cocktail hour, open bar, dinner service, wedding cake, linens, setup and cleanup. We cook Italian, Middle Eastern and Spanish, and handle vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and nut-free without fuss. Bridal suite, free parking, wheelchair access throughout. We cater off premise too, so your rehearsal dinner and brunch can come from the same kitchen. Come taste it before you decide - book a private tour.

“POSH DJs was an absolute pleasure to work with from beginning to end. Their communication style was quick, professional, and enthusiastic, and the quality of their work was top-tier. DJ Urb had everyone on the dance floor and made it feel like a true party - we said we wanted everyone to enjoy themselves and he made sure to do so! Since the wedding, we've had multiple people ask for DJ Urb's information and compliment him as the best wedding DJ they've ever seen. He even got us to crowd surf! Brandon was great with communication and set up, and the POSH DJs team paid excellent attention to detail to ensure our special day was fun for all.”

“We absolutely loved our wedding venue! Our guests couldn't stop complimenting the space, and everything about the venue itself was perfect for our big day. The staff was generally great, and the venue itself exceeded our expectations. However, there were a couple of things that caught us off guard. First, when we went to drop off our decorations the day before the wedding, we were surprised to find large, dramatic Christmas decorations still in the foyer—something we were never informed would be there. Thankfully, the team worked with us to remove them, and by the morning of the wedding, everything was taken care of, which we really appreciated. Second, we were disappointed to find that the venue ran out of rum for our signature drink. We had clearly communicated that rum was a major ingredient, yet they only had two bottles for the entire night, which was nowhere near enough. It seemed like they completely forgot that rum was a key part of our signature cocktail, and it was frustrating to see our guests unable to enjoy it as planned. Lastly, after the wedding, we heard some concerning stories about the way the venue manager and team interacted with our vendors, particularly our wedding planner. Apparently, voices were raised, and things got very heated, with fingers being pointed at faces. It was heartbreaking to hear this, especially because it was completely at odds with the otherwise wonderful experience we had. It felt very unprofessional and left a bad taste in my mouth. Overall, the venue itself was stunning, and the event went off beautifully, but these issues were frustrating and disappointing, especially when considering how much we loved everything else. If you decide to book here, just make sure to keep a close eye on the details and be aware of how the team handles interactions with vendors.”

“Are you kidding me? Best wedding music of our lives. The band sounded amazing, everyone was dancing, we had a blast. I was nervous for live but it was 10000% worth it. Easy to community with Louis and they were able to accommodate so much. So much talent. Thank you guys!”
