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.

We had our wedding reception at Crystal Plaza on March 15, 2024 and I don't even know where to begin! I'll start by saying because of Crystal Plaza, we had the best day of our lives. When touring venues all I kept saying in my head was that I wanted something fresh and different. From the moment I walked in the door, I could sense that about Crystal Plaza. The venue holds onto the classic elegance you look for in a wedding, but with everything they have to offer, it puts a modern and fresh twist on classic beauty. Max took time to go through all aspects of our day at Crystal Plaza and was polite and accommodating since day 1. They were responsive and helpful through all of the wedding planning and when the day came we felt like royalty. The bridal and groom suites are out of this world and the bridal attendants are extraordinary. They even asked if I was too hot or cold and adjusted the temperature all day for me! They brought me a smoothie made there by request because I was having a hard time eating with all the excitement! I could go on and on. The cocktail hour is like nothing I have ever seen before and the food for dinner is actually delicious whereas at many weddings that is not the case. Every guest has been raving about the food, the service, and the seamless nature of our day. The best decision we made was booking Crystal Plaza for our wedding!

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.

As a mom, my daughter’s baptism was one of the most precious and joyful days of my life, and having Olya there to capture it was the best decision we made. From the moment she arrived, Olya felt like family. She was so warm and approachable, instantly putting us at ease, which made the entire day feel even more special. The photos Olya took are absolutely beautiful. She didn’t just capture the big moments of the ceremony, but all the little details that made the day unforgettable—the looks on our faces, the love in the room, and the happiness of our friends and family. Every time I look at the photos, I feel like I’m reliving that day all over again. Olya was incredible with my daughter. Baptisms can be a bit overwhelming, especially for little ones, but Olya was so patient and gentle. She made sure my daughter was comfortable, and the photos she captured are just filled with joy. I couldn’t have asked for anything more. The reception was such a fun celebration, and Olya managed to capture the energy and happiness perfectly! From the dancing to the laughter, every photo is bursting with life and love. I didn’t even notice her taking half the photos, but when I saw them, they felt so real and full of emotion. I can’t thank Olya enough for creating these beautiful memories that we’ll treasure forever. She captured the heart and soul of our day with such care, and I’m beyond grateful. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who truly captures the love and joy of life’s special moments!

I cannot recommend Sophie enough for wedding make up. My wife and I used Sophie as our makeup artist for ourselves, our two moms, and my sister-in-law. Getting your make up done is an intimate process and sets the tone for the entire day and with Sophie there I felt beautiful and comfortable the whole time. We were not able to do a make up trial due to my schedule so she worked with me prior to my wedding day via zoom to make sure she knew exactly what I wanted. She sent me examples and helped me articulate my vision and even tried the looks on herself so that I could see them come to life. On the day of I felt so glam and powerful. My look lasted through performances and lots of dancing and my pictures from the end of the night are still STUNNING with no touch ups required (though she did provide us with the cutest touch up kits) My wife’s style and comfort with make up is much different than mine so she did a make up trial and Sophie helped her to find a look that was “wedding glam” but still felt authentic. Our looks were very different and incredibly “us” and showed off Sophie’s range and talent. Logistically, she is a complete professional with high end products that she organizes for ease of use and hygiene. Though my make up ran much longer than intended, she had anticipated that and so we still finished exactly on time. I never felt rushed or stressed - only like an absolute queen. It was the perfect way to start my wedding day and was worth every single penny.

Davide and his team are the best! We originally asked them to take pictures of our roka ceremony and that's it. They didn't know what it was!! They took pictures of everything, they even took us out and took some couple pictures just for us! They edited all the pictures and the pictures were fantastic. We asked them to also work on our engagement shoot, and then photo and video for the big day. They were fantastic! Both are very nice and easy to talk to so it was easy for me to explain what I wanted. They made such a stressful day better by not having us worry about moments not being captured because they were very attentive and present the whole time. They were the perfect choice, thank you!

Anthony Ziccardi Studios is a full time, fully insured wedding photography and videography company based in Sparta, New Jersey. This team of caring professionals delights in helping couples through every step of the wedding photography process, and have been doing so since 2001. The studio is dedicated to ensuring that couples have beautiful images and films that they can treasure long after their special day.

I would give a million stars if I could. We had the most incredible experience with Anthony Ziccardi Studios as our wedding photographer at Rock Island Lake Club on May 30, 2025. From start to finish, they were everything we could have hoped for and more! We knew we wanted this photographer before we even knew what venue we would book! From the first interaction in the office, they were professional, personable, and genuinely caring. By sheer fate, we had Anthony shoot our engagement photo shoot. He took the time to understand our vision, and more importantly our personalities. Before we even got home from the shoot, we had emailed and requested he be the photographer for our wedding day (although truthfully we would have been happy with anyone on his incredible staff). On the big day, he and Karina blended seamlessly into the celebration, capturing every laugh, every tear, and every beautiful detail with such an artistic eye. They are so knowledgeable about the work and the photos that would be bested, and we trusted them endlessly! Anthony and Karina made us feel so comfortable and confident, even in the most emotional and high-energy moments. They were never intrusive but always right there when it counted, capturing magic without us even realizing it. The photos? Absolutely breathtaking. Every image radiates emotion and tells the story of our day so perfectly. We couldn’t stop smiling (and tearing up) as we looked through them. They delivered not just pictures, but memories frozen in time...and as I write this I've only seen a handful. We cannot wait to receive the rest! We truly couldn’t imagine having had anyone else by our side for this once-in-a-lifetime moment. Anthony Ziccardi was more than just a vendor—he is now a friend and truly felt like family. If you're lucky enough to book them for your wedding, do it. It was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our special day. Thank you, thank you, thank you for being such a meaningful part of our celebration!

Hi there! I’m Djaniella (or dj for short). I love storytelling, adventures, and creating connections with people. I’m attracted to a meaningful image, and being able to relive that moment in my mind. A coffee shop and an ice cream parlor is always on my list whenever I visit a new town. I love the sound of waves crashing along the shore, I love people-watching, I love basketball, I love spending time with my family, and I love good food. Thanks for visiting! Let’s work with each other :)

Our experience with Djaniella was amazing from the start. Our engagement shoot where we first met gave my husband and I the utmost confidence of our decision to book with Dj. She is fun, cool, calm, and creative- something we prioritized in finding our photographer. Our wedding day was obviously stressful and at times overwhelming, however Dj was always there and effortlessly brought calm into the room. She was highly complemented by our friends and family for being so kind and easy to work with. Clearly her work is incredibly beautiful as well, when she delivered "sneak peak" photos (the same night as the wedding may I add), both my husband and I were tearful. Of all of our vendors, I felt the most comfortable and myself throughout the day when with her. We would book her a million times over again, I cant recommend her enough!

We could tell how passionate she was about her work from the second we met her, and she went above and beyond for us throughout our entire wedding planning process. She was always extremely responsive when I needed her for questions, concerns, or even advice. She really is the best!

My name is Christopher Kayfield. I’m a professional photographer working in the NYC and Philadelphia areas. I focus on personality, humor, and sincerity. I deliver what is essentially a visual storybook, capturing the day’s narrative.

Christopher is the best! From initial zoom meeting through wedding day and even after. His personality and sense of humor make working with him so fun and easy. He brought Kyle as our second shooter who was also laid back and wonderful. Low stress experience and high quality, beautiful pictures!!! Chris has awesome artistic vision and will do what he’s gotta do to capture the shot (shoes off, standing on furniture included). Our formal portraits feel modern, not stuffy and the dance floor candids put us right back in the moment. It was such a pleasure to have him with us capturing all our moments, big and small. Thank you Chris - so glad we found you!

Working with Tanvi was an amazing experience, I cannot recommend her enough for your henna needs! We had a multicultural fusion wedding, so I did not really know what to expect throughout the henna process but Tanvi made the whole process simple and easy, great communication, and delivered AMAZING work. Even on our honeymoon, people could not stop complimenting the beautiful designs.
