My husband and I wanted to express our sincere gratitude for the overall beauty and charm of Grand Cascades Lodge, which made our wedding day truly memorable. The stunning views, exquisite grounds, and the spacious Emerald ballroom were perfect for our celebration. Working with Jean and Sara was generally a positive experience, and their welcoming attitude during our visits meant a lot to us. However, I wanted to share some constructive feedback regarding the planning process. While our customization requests were accommodated, there were communication challenges, especially on the day of the wedding, with multiple points of contact. The food tasting experience was delightful, and we appreciate the effort in accommodating our preferences. Although some dishes at the cocktail hour were well-received, the braised beef dish didn't meet the standard set during the tasting. Unfortunately, there were a few issues during the weekend that impacted our experience: - The memory table candles were not lit until late in the reception, despite prior requests. - Our sweetheart table had a wrinkled tablecloth, affecting the overall presentation. - The florist's flowers for the cake were left with the kitchen staff, and despite assurances, they were not added as planned. - The shuttle service delay inconvenienced elderly guests who had to wait longer than expected. Additionally shuttle service that was promised during the after party did not work as agreed upon. While these points highlight areas for improvement, we want to emphasize our appreciation for the positive aspects of our celebration. We understand that events may encounter unforeseen challenges, and we believe that sharing our experience can contribute to enhancing future events at GCL. Thank you for your attention to our feedback.

Liberty Hall Museum helped to make my Mid-September wedding an absolute dream. We had our ceremony in front of the lush apple orchard, our cocktail hour around the rose garden that was still blooming and our reception under the tent. We utilized the Carriage House during cocktail hour and for dessert. Liberty Hall staff, as always, was warm, helpful, accommodating and so, so patient. There was never an issue and they were quick to fix anything before it was noticed. Our photographer was so excited about all the different opportunities for unique and beautiful photos throughout the grounds, over the course of the evening. I have a hard time finding the words that truly express what an amazing location Liberty Hall is. Almost 5 years later my husband and I are still receiving compliments about our wedding day.

He is very professional, and he blended into the party so I never felt like I was being recorded so I could literally be myself, so did my guests, we were all pretty comfortable with him around.

Makeup Masters

  • Serves Hackettstown, NJ

I have always had a love affair with makeup, as well as the opportunity to teach and share my passion for makeup. This is why I created Makeup Masters. After being in the beauty industry for over 25 years, and having the opportunity to work with the most talented artist in the industry, my vision was to create a service with these artists, utilizing their talents, and make them available for all women. Makeup Masters believes in bringing out the individual beauty in every woman. Building self-esteem and confidence with the right hair-styling and make-up application, so you feel your most beautiful for any occasion.

I was looking for a makeup & hair artist at a more comfortable price and Makeup Masters fit the description. Scott was super helpful with the information and payments were made easy through PayPal. The hair artist that we got was super professional and helped my bridesmaids well. Since it was raining outside the hair stylist did great to make sure no one’s hair would look bad from the humidity. However, the makeup artist doesn’t deserve so much stars, she came an hour plus late. And while she was late she also took long with the girls knowing the time frame to be ready was at 1130, and she still had two girls left (& it was 10am).

Dreams really do come true at the Tides!The best thing you can do is book your wedding there. From the day we booked and leading up to our big day Michael was very forthcoming and helpful. He was very responsive, followed up on all my questions and made sure we felt supported. The venue itself looks out of a fairytale. They are in a rural location so the greenery as you drive up is beautiful. The inside looks akin to a palace with many rooms and a beautiful lobby.  You don't even have to decorate too much because the place itself is so elegant and classy. The garden is soooo breathtaking. They have 2 ceremony spaces outside, beautiful flowers and greenery. Plus it's so big! You get a lot of bang for your buck. I didn't hire a day of coordinator and I basically planned everything myself with the bridal party, but the Maitre D and venue staff were very instrumental in making sure our event ran smoothly. I was super nervous thinking about the day of. I planned everything out but couldn't leave my seat because hello, I'm the bride lol. I was getting ready all morning.  But thanks to our Maitre D Alberto, the event flower perfectly. He kept us on time. Helped get the bridal party together. He literally went above and beyond. It's so incredible just thinking back to it. I know some venues are hands off. But the staff was just so dedicated to making our every request happen if possible. Thanks to Alberto, our wedding day went by beautifully without any hitch or drama. It's unbelievable because I heard there is always some kind of issue the day of. We paid for a 6am opening so me and my bridesmaids could get ready at the venue. Michael set up a wonderful breakfast in the bridal suite it was like being home! We were so comfortable and we're ready on time for our 11am start. Truly wonderful. We had the small bridal suite so to our small party but it was super nice and a great set up for getting ready! The food and the drinks were to die for. First of all, the cocktail hour was loaded with so much food! Not only do they include a variety of delicious hor'devours. You get to choose from from different entrees and stations. The guest are still raving about it a month later! Everything was excellent. From the presentation to the quality of the meals, it was the best wedding food I've ever had. When the reception came all the guests were too stuffed for their reception entrees! My cake came from David's Custom Cakes, their partner. I got the dulce de leche filling and let me tell you it was so rich! I'm definitely coming back the next time I need a cake! Honestly I am a happy bride. I have no regrets, in fact it was even better than I imagined! Don't hesitate to book them, you will not regret it!

Hi! My name is Amanda. I studied television and film production at Montclair State University, and right out of college I decided to follow my passion to start my own event videography business. Nothing brings me more joy than working with a couple on their wedding day to bring them memories that will last a LIFETIME!

This review is a long time coming, but my husband and I cannot say enough about Amanda from AKAM Productions. We were lucky enough to secure Amanda for our wedding back in April of 2023. Amanda is not only INCREDIBLY talented; she is responsive, creative, and as genuine as they come! Our Social Media teaser was delivered while we were on our honeymoon; just days after our wedding. Amanda's work brought us to tears and exceeded any expectations we had! After our wedding day, Amanda was not only a vendor, she instantly became a friend of our family. My sister, who is getting married in December, was determined to have Amanda and her team shoot her wedding day! I have recommend Amanda to family, to friends, and to anyone else looking for a videographer. I can promise you, when you choose to hire Amanda, you will be BLOWN AWAY by her ability to capture your big day! She filmed the most special and intimate moments in such an organic way. I cannot thank her enough! AKAM Productions was the BEST CHOICE WE MADE! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANKYOU to Amanda and her team!

Hi friend, thank you for stopping by my page! My name is Maria, and I am New Jersey wedding photographer. I am passionate about wedding photography & I consider myself very blessed to deliver galleries that showcase real connection like yours. I spent my teenage years running around with my film camera taking pictures of pretty much everything. Fast forward many years later you’ll still find me with a camera in my hand creating memories. If you made it this far it means you have special moments coming up you would like me to capture, and I’m so excited for us to meet.

Maria was pretty booked up but managed to squeeze us in even though we were away the only dates she had available. She mad it work. She drove to New Hope PA to do our engagement shoot. They came out AMAZING! It was such a pleasure working with her. We cannot wait for her to photograph our wedding!
