I am still riding the high from my wedding hosted at Skyview Golf Club and I can't say enough great thing. If you're planning a wedding this is your venue. Not only is it one of the more affordable wedding venues in North Jersey, the staff and specifically coordinator Hildegard Power, are incredible at what they do. Hildegard walked me through the entire planning process, maintained the excitement and quickly answered all of questions (no matter how repetitive or the hour). The venue itself, without any additional decor, is stunning. Modern, open layout that accentuate the natural scenery. The bartenders were incredible, my guests are still asking me for recipes from our signature drinks (house cocktails suggested an made by Skyview) and the food was delicious. Hildegard ensured we actually got to eat on our wedding day, enjoy our choices and savor each moment and bite. The options for food, both cocktail hour and dinner are extraordinary--it became my husband and I's favorite date night activity to try to narrow down our favorite menu items. Eating them all on the big day was icing on the cake. I had a very specific vision for my wedding and Hildegard worked with me and my family to bring it to life, from decor drop-off and organization to final touches and last minute changes on the big day. More than anything, the most worthwhile and best thing I got from Skyview was reassurance and peace of mind. As a bride, there are a million decisions you have to make and even more things that will creep into your mind to worry you. I was never once worried that something may go wrong or fall through at Skyview. Hildegard built a strong foundation of trust and communication with us that truly made the big day everything I hoped. I was able to be in the moment and enjoy every second of my wedding to the fullest thanks to Skyview.

We loved Blenheim Hill farm when we first saw it, which was under a foot of fresh snow, but when we returned for our wedding day (8/1/26) and saw everything in bloom we loved it even more. The place is beautiful, remote and relaxing. There are no sounds of traffic and the views are incredible. When guests starting arriving on Friday night everybody just kept asking us “where did you find this place??” Its truly beautiful! An idyllic place to get married. The Farmhouse, where we had close family stay for the weekend, is charming and comfortable. The kids loved playing with the goats, exploring and swimming in the lake. The adults relaxed and walked the property. The staff were helpful and fantastic the entire time. Leading up to the wedding, the venue had an online portal that organized lots of our wedding details which helped immensely with planning. The staff were very helpful with any questions we had. The food for the rehearsal dinner, wedding night, and brunch were all fantastic. They went above and beyond what most people expect when attending a wedding. Many people told us it was the best food they’ve had at a wedding. In fact, many people told us it was the best wedding they had ever been to! (We agree) A side note, we were worried about guests finding accommodations for the wedding, but everyone had a pretty easy time finding AirBNBs/local bed and breakfasts really close by. When we got engaged and started planning our wedding, we heard many people say your wedding is “just one day,” but it really is much more than that: it's the months of planning leading up to it and all the times you think back on it in the years to come too. We really enjoyed doing all the wedding planning with Blenheim's help and the wedding weekend was perfect. We will cherish the memories of our wedding for the rest of our lives. We’re sad that it's over, but if you want to invite us to your wedding so we can go back, we accept!

We cannot express enough how much we absolutely loved our experience at this venue. From the moment we first walked in, we knew it was the perfect fit for us—not just as a couple, but for our entire family. It felt like “us” in every way, and that feeling carried through our entire wedding day. A huge part of our relief and confidence came from working with Tricia and Marty. From day one, they made everything feel effortless. Tricia, especially, was like having a built-in, experienced professional right by our side—part planner, part partner, and part friend. Her advice, suggestions, and calming presence were invaluable. We always felt supported, understood, and in the best hands possible. Our guests are still raving about the venue, the experience and the bonfire! We received so many compliments on the atmosphere, the beauty of the space, and the seamless flow of the day. Everywhere we turned, someone was telling us how magical everything felt—and we couldn’t agree more. The entire experience was everything we hoped for and so much more. We will forever look back with gratitude and the fondest memories of a day that was truly perfect. This venue, and the people who run it, gave us the best start to our married life, and we couldn’t be more thankful!

We recently had our wedding at ElmRock Inn bnb and we feel very lucky to have made lasting memories there. Rain or shine the grounds were absolutely stunning and the décor tied the ambiance together to create a warm and rustic look to our wedding that we always envisioned. We were blessed with a rainy morning which did not stop us from having a beautiful ceremony. The staff was extremely helpful as we transitioned with the weather. Jen and the other wait staff was very attentive in ensuring that everyone with food restrictions were taken care of. The food was beyond expectations, we had so many guests that came up to us to send compliments to the chef. The reception went off without a hitch! We were even lucky enough to get a visit from the friendly deer that like to roam the property which created the most spectacular and unique photos. There are only a few suggestions that we had about our experience. Those of our guests staying in the Carriage house hit a few snags during their visit. There are a few lifted nails in the floor boards that our guests hit as they walked barefoot upstairs. There was also some difficulty finding hooks to hand towels that were being used or to hang a suit. We stayed in the Iris room which was a beautiful space, however, we were woken up each morning quite early to staff having some loud conversations in the kitchen below us. The only trouble we had during the reception was during our cake cutting. We noticed the cake was not taken out with enough time to thaw after being in the fridge because it was difficult to cut. Regardless of these small challenges, we still had such an amazing time and could not be more happy with this unforgettable day. Thank you ElmRock Inn!

We love Rustic Ridge! We are so happy that we chose to have our wedding here. There are so many things that we loved about it. The price of the venue was incredibly reasonable, and it allowed for a very personalized wedding which we loved (no required vendors). Wally, the owner, was amazing to work with. He had great recommendations for vendors, was very communicative and accommodating, and made the whole process so easy. We also loved that our friends could camp at the venue, which made figuring out transportation a lot easier. Lastly, the venue itself was so beautiful! Our guests gushed all night about what a perfect backdrop the valley was for the ceremony.

Our experience at The Venue at Winding Hills was absolutely amazing. Although we had a micro wedding, we were treated with the same level of care and attention as if we had a guest list of 200 guests. Throughout the planning process, we changed our minds several times about different details, and the staff was always accommodating, flexible, and supportive. They were incredibly proactive, even anticipating potential weather issues before they happened and having solutions ready. The grounds were breathtaking and provided the perfect backdrop for our special day. The food was spectacular and exceeded our expectations. We also rented The Ferns on the day of our wedding, and it was a beautiful and relaxing space to get ready. After the wedding, we returned to The Ferns with our adult children, and it was the perfect place to unwind, reflect on the day, and enjoy breakfast together the next morning. It added an extra special touch to an already unforgettable experience. A special thank you goes to our wedding coordinator, Heather, who truly went above and beyond. She made sure everything ran smoothly and took exceptional care of us throughout the entire event. Her attention to detail and dedication allowed us to relax and fully enjoy our wedding day. We could not have asked for a better venue or a more wonderful team to help make our wedding unforgettable. We highly recommend The Venue at Winding Hills to any couple looking for a beautiful venue, outstanding service, and a team that genuinely cares about making your wedding day perfect.

My husband and I hosted our Friday night welcome party at The Mod House during our wedding weekend last summer, and it was one of the most memorable parts of the entire celebration. We were looking for something different from a traditional welcome party—a place with great music, delicious food, plenty of room to mingle, and an atmosphere that encouraged people to relax, dance, and have fun. We envisioned a groovy 1970s-style house party, and The Mod House was absolutely perfect. The mid-century modern home is incredibly unique, with beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces, multiple bars, and an amazing speakeasy-style basement that created the perfect setting for the evening. Nick was fantastic to work with from start to finish. As someone who curates private music events throughout the year, he had excellent recommendations for bands and DJs and helped us create exactly the vibe we were hoping for. Based on his suggestions, we hired a DJ to play outside while guests enjoyed cocktails at his newly built outdoor bar and pizza from a food truck. Later in the evening, everyone moved downstairs to the speakeasy, where a local funk band performed and had the entire room dancing. Nick also helped us curate our drink menu and coordinated bartenders, making the planning process seamless. Every detail came together beautifully, and our guests are still talking about how much fun they had. Many told us it was one of the best welcome parties they had ever attended and such a refreshing alternative to the typical wedding weekend event. If you're looking for a venue with incredible character, great energy, and an unforgettable atmosphere, The Mod House is truly special. We couldn't have imagined a better place to kick off our wedding weekend.

We worked with Morgan for our wedding at Buttermilk and were so impressed with how smoothly our day went. Literally had a perfect wedding day. We also booked the Riverknoll house for most of the wedding party and stayed at Pony's Pad. Both were beautiful, clean, comfy, and offered stunning spaces and light for the photography. Our wedding was mid November and were so lucky with how perfect the weather was and how beautiful all the greenery looked. The grounds at Buttermilk Falls are truly so beautifully maintained.

Welcome to Pleasantly Devine Stables. We're dreamers, but even in our wildest dreams, we never expected to own a farm and host a special event venue. We purchased the 104-acre farm property in 2016, as a place to begin our future and pursue our passion and love of farming. Since purchasing the farm, several guests found our property to be so serene, fell in love with its natural beauty, and persuaded us to open our family farm for others to experience. We are a family that genuinely cares about you and the details of your big day, and a venue that will consistently go above and beyond. We believe firmly you aren't a "number" or a "package". We host celebrations because we love sharing our farm with couples and families who love it too. At Pleasantly Devine Stables, we put great emphasis on FAMILY: our family, your family, and the greater family of the Hudson Valley.

Locust Grove Historic Site

Poughkeepsie, NY
  • Up to 150 guests
  • Raw space

  • Starts at $3,000

Locust Grove Estate is an unforgettable setting for weddings throughout the year, overlooking the Hudson River that combines the charm of the 19th century with the comfort of the 21st. Our West Gallery, located in the Arts-&-Crafts style Museum Pavilion, offers a unique setting for weddings. Guests can enjoy cocktails on the covered terrace and shaded courtyard, then dine and dance in an elegant gallery with hardwood floors, a cathedral ceiling, and three walls of windows and French doors providing access to the estate’s 200 acres of gardens and grounds. The West Gallery comfortably accommodates between 50 and 150 guests for dinner and dancing, while the adjacent Garden Lawn may also be rented for a ceremony overlooking the perennial gardens. For your convenience, the rental includes tables and chairs, a caterer’s kitchen, air conditioning, ample restroom facilities, and easy parking. Locust Grove only schedules one event each evening, so you and your guests are assured privacy.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Has an energetic and exciting atmosphere
  • Natural elegance with open spaces
  • Raw space for complete customization

Venue considerations

  • Limited cleanup and setup services
  • No built-in audiovisual options
  • No all-inclusive dining options
Booking Locust Grove Estate was the best decision I made during wedding planning. The venue is stunning and yet so affordable. Locust Grove provides the space, the arch, and the chairs, but does not require you to book with their preferred vendors. Because of this, you can design your day exactly as you want it to be and within your own budget. We got so many compliments on the location, which is a Hudson Valley oasis nestled in Poughkeepsie, with beautiful gardens and views of the Hudson river. You get the best of both worlds with Locust Grove because your ceremony can be outside but the reception space is indoors and has AC. There is a Courtyard Marriott next door and a walking path connects the two properties, which was super convenient for our guests and saved us the expense of providing transportation. I could not recommend Locust Grove Estate enough!

We wanted to share the food we love and enjoy with our family and friends. We have been to so many weddings where the food was just underwhelming. Alan's did not disappoint. We still receive so many comments on how much the food was enjoyed and the People at Alan's worked very hard to make sure our day went smooth and we were left satisfied. Cannot recommend them enough.

Awarded Best of Zola
My now-husband and I will never be over our wedding at Blooming Hill Farm. It will be hard to condense all the gushing I want to do into a succinct review, but I'll try. I remembered seeing pics of the farm and thinking it looked cool, but visiting in person last August was a gamechanger. It's so magical in person - beautiful blooms everywhere, the little babbling brook, the dreamy cocktail barn, the general views. My partner, who was in London at the time, had joined via FaceTime and even over the phone he knew immediately after that it was the one. We knew we wanted to get married when the farm was exactly as we saw it, so did our wedding toward the end of August. We lucked out with absolutely beautiful weather and it made for an unforgettable day. In addition to loving on the space ('gorgeous' was used a lot), our guests couldn't stop raving about the food (no surprises here, BHF is a working farm with a popular farm-to-table restaurant). Without a doubt, the best wedding food we've ever had. The tasting was a highlight :) In addition to all of this, rather than having to separately source and pay a kajillion dollars for all of the linens, tables, etc, this is all included and BHF works with you to execute your vision to a T. The reception tent was sneakily one of the most beautiful parts of our wedding day - I couldn't stop ogling everything. Special shoutout to Nadine, BHF's florist who worked with our non-existent knowledge of flowers and delivered an absolute dream setting. Finally, I've fully been burying the lead because on top of all this, the ultimate perk of doing your wedding at Blooming Hill Farm is you get to work with a coordinator like our girl Kate - who we are still not ready to say goodbye to. While we experienced light concern from a few folks over not hiring a planner, with Kate we never needed one. From the venue tour to detailed planning sessions to literally cueing us all down the aisle, she held our hand every step of the way and managed to be equally warm and fun while supremely on top of her sh*t (and ensuring we were on top of ours). She overdelivered in the way a stereotypically Type A wedding planner would, while managing to be...chill?! It truly felt like working with a friend. (WE LOVE YOU, KATE, PLEASE CALL US WHEN YOU'RE IN BROOKLYN?!?) The rest of the staff were also so notably warm, wonderful and on point as well. Truly, if there was a way to Black Mirror ourselves and relive this day over and over, we definitely would. Please have your wedding here, ok?

Absolutely magical. Getting married at Rushmore Estate was like stepping into a dream. From the moment we arrived at the grand gated entry to our lakeside bonfire after-party, everything was beyond what I ever imagined. The property is stunning, with 50 acres of pure serenity, scenic views, trails, and that private lake? Unreal. The staff was incredible—so helpful, patient, and genuinely dedicated to bringing our vision to life. What really set the experience apart was how thoughtful and accommodating they were from start to finish. Months before the wedding, they helped coordinate an amazing bachelorette weekend for me and my bridesmaids. They arranged airport pickups, planned day trips into the city, and even recommended a walking trail right on the property. The night before the wedding, we had a peaceful slumber party in one of the estate’s suites. No stress, just laughter, wine, and the kind of calm I never thought possible before a wedding. Every single detail, from the day trips to the fire pit after-party, was handled with care. If you're looking for a venue that’s elegant, relaxing, and full of heart, Rushmore Estate is it.

The Bird and Bottle Inn was the perfect fairytale setting for our wedding. From the beginning, there were many emails back and forth to get all the details just right, but the staff was incredibly responsive and professional throughout the entire planning process. But they really shined the day of the wedding. The set-up and ceremony went so smoothly, they made sure everything was taken care of. Even last minute timeline switches like cutting the cake earlier in the night was made easy. We also were able to stay at the inn and get ready there which made things much easier on us. They had our signature drinks, champagne, and food ready and waiting for all the guests as soon as the ceremony was over. I have been to weddings where the entire cocktail hour we were just waiting on line to get a drink, this was perfectly set up. Drinks were also being continually poured and served at an inside and an outside bar, and if you couldn’t make it to the bar there was always a server nearby to help. There was even one server who was assigned just to us, he went above and beyond, always made sure we had anything we needed, always getting us drinks or more food, it was wonderful. And the food… the food was simply amazing - usually wedding food can be boring, or like it was just mass produced and pumped out of the kitchen, but their food was perfect. I am still thinking about the short rib and our guests are still raving about it over a month later. Literally one guest saying it was the best food they ever had at a wedding. And the space is so beautiful, there are so many lovely place for photos, and really makes it seem like you are in an enchanted place. The bridge over the little babbling brook for a first look, the garden ceremony by the pond, the cocktail hour on the patio, are just to name a few of the perfect spots on the property. And having our Photo Booth inside on the velvet couch was a unique touch guests really enjoyed! Not to mention getting our own private cottage to stay in! We also were able to move inside to the bar after the wedding was over with just the couple guests that were staying with us at the Inn and it was a lovely way to wind down after all the festivities were over. The entire team at The Bird and Bottle Inn truly went above and beyond to ensure our special day was everything we dreamed it would be. We couldn't have asked for a more magical venue to celebrate our love
