Jerry and his crew made out wedding day incredible! They helped run the whole day, they got the guests seated, kept everything on schedule, and ensured that Ben and I didn't have to worry about anything. When our flowergirl got stage-fright right before walking down the aisle, Jerry swooped in to save the day and helped her find her mom. We initially didn't plan to do a grand entrance into the reception, but Jerry and the DJ (Megan from Music that Moves) made one happen last-minute so our flower girl could have a second shot ar throwing her petals. You're not just getting a venue at Parkway, you're getting a whole team who will make your event run smoothly. If we ever do a vow renewal or anniversary party, we will be back!

I literally could write for an hour or two and still not be able to tell you everything that was so wonderful about working with WSE. They were well organized, available, kind, and definitely make you feel like family. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, and photographs very well. We took advantage of the recent upgrades to Alpha and it was a fantastic space; big enough to comfortably accommodate our 150-ish guests, décor, dance floor, buffets, memory table, etc, but still felt intimate. They coordinated well with our outside vendors and I appreciated that we weren’t limited in our vendor selection. They made a lot of things just work without stressing us out at all. The setup for my caterers/servers was excellent and accommodating. The Romeo suite was so much fun for the groomsfolk, but the Juliet suite was an AMAZING amenity. The salon chairs and backlit mirrors were so convenient for my HMUA. The suite was comfortable and roomy despite the zillion people I had coming in and out. The full kitchen (particularly the full size fridge/freezer) was super nice to have. We had our ceremony on the west lawn, which was absolutely beautiful. They also were very enthusiastic and accommodating about letting us get some photos with our dogs and incorporating them into the ceremony. One of the most notable things, though, was how well they handled adapting to my and my guests’ mobility needs. Several of my older family members use walkers and were worried about the walking or the grass and they all felt very accommodated and cared for and were able to enjoy the day. I myself have a disability that affects my ability to walk and stand for very long; this was no problem for them. They shortened the aisle for my ceremony, knew exactly how to create a beautiful ceremony where both we and our wedding party were seated, and they put a lot of mileage on those golf carts getting me and my family where we needed to be safely and comfortably. I cannot recommend White Stone strongly enough and I would have every event there if I could.

Everything from to the visuals, the staff, the food, was fantastic day of! The layout was perfect for my 125 person wedding allowing for my dance floor to be directly in the center. The space itself is gorgeous with exposed brick and wooden floors. The second floor patio is a lifesaver for the dance floor lovers needing to cool down. Even though my cocktail reception was just downstairs, the entire feel is completely different, promoting and Irish pub setting with elegant lighting. Staff was extremely efficient, and the bartenders were so personal! Gabrielle was my coordinator, and she went above and beyond during the entire planning process. She even added the personalized touch of having our signature drinks served in pineapples (as this this was how he proposed). Minor hiccups with pricing/guarantees due to the switching of hands, but fair compromises were put in place to offset this. Due to the flawless execution day of, and the hard work Gabrielle put in to make sure my day went off perfectly, I would absolutely recommend Loft 28 West!

We’ve only had the chance to shoot a couple of weddings at the Meyer Ballroom so far — but we already love it! The space is absolutely beautiful, with great natural light and clean, modern details that photograph so well. It’s one of those venues where everything just works visually, which makes our job so much easier. Even more than the space, the team at Paramount is amazing. Everyone we’ve worked with has been kind, organized, and clearly passionate about creating a great experience for couples and vendors alike. That kind of energy makes a huge difference on a wedding day!

My daughter and son in law were just married at Two Brothers Roundhouse just over week ago. Suffice it to say that everything came out absolutely perfect. From day one, Lori and Nicole put our minds at ease answering every one of our questions and no question was too crazy for them. There is so much included in the package, the cake from Sweet Reserve Bakery (delicious!) , a plated meal or many different buffets to choose from. We had a plated dinner and everything was devine! Hor d'oeuvres, a fabulous beer selection at the bar... The outdoor gazebo was the perfect backdrop for their ceremony and the building itself is really interesting if you're into historical venues. Angie and Elizabeth took the reins for day of coordinating and I can't say enough good things about their professionalism and attention to detail. They took the worry out of everything1 So if you're looking for the perfect venue for your wedding, look no further than Two Brothers!

We recently toured this venue for an upcoming wedding, and it exceeded all expectations. The halls are spacious, beautifully designed, and give such a grand and modern feel. What impressed me the most was how professional and accommodating the staff were - they answered every question right away and made us feel like our event truly matters. It’s rare to find a place that combines style, comfort, and outstanding service all in one. Without a doubt, this is one of the best venues in the area!

Our wedding reception at the Morris County Golf Club was absolutely magical! From the very beginning, Emma and her team were an absolute dream to work with. They were incredibly easy, flexible, and truly dedicated to making our day perfect. Their attention to detail was impeccable, and they anticipated every need. The venue itself is gorgeous, providing just the right amount of sparkle and elegance. But the real star of the show was the food! Our guests are still raving about the incredible buffet.

From the moment we reached out to The BRIX on the Fox, their communication was effective, quick, and proactive. The team was there for anything we needed, going above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was perfect. The venue itself was beautiful, with great lighting and a spacious layout that allowed our guests to mingle comfortably. While they provided a list of preferred vendors, we found it worthwhile to look outside of their suggestions and were thrilled with the results. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and highly recommend The BRIX on the Fox to any couple planning their wedding.

Had the 5 hour lunch wedding package on 5/20/23. It was fabulous. Lisa was the wedding coordinator and offered the Emerald Room with high ceilings. Very light and airy. She set up everything beautifully. Lots of food. Cake was beautiful and delicious. Everything was perfect. The only thing that could have changed was cleanup started 15 minutes before event ended which caused some guests to leave slightly early. But overall a 10 out of 10. You will not be disappointed by selecting Villa Olivia. Also beautiful outdoor pictures at this facility.

Started off our experience with the amazing Jill. She did everything just right and went beyond our expectations. When looking for a venue it can be very over whelming. Jill took that away from us right away. She explained everything to us in detail and broke it down. We then had the pleasure of working with the amazing Javi. He makes an excellent addition to Jills team. When I say this man was on top of everything I am not over exaggerating. He texted and called, and kept us on to date on everything. The day of the wedding and rehearsal Javi took top tier care of us and we will forever be grateful for the Bolingbrook Golf Club team for making our day extra special.
