The Valley at Neshanic was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the beginning, the communication with Julia, the sales manager, was open and easy. She executed everything perfectly, and the venue looked exactly as we had hoped - perfectly quaint and not over the top. The price per plate was also very reasonable. The food was great, the staff was attentive, and the views of the countryside were beautiful. Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better experience at The Valley at Neshanic. We highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a beautiful, stress-free wedding day.

Inspired by the creativity and energy of the Whitechapel District of London, this versatile venue strives to redefine how art permeates our daily life– be it through food, drink, performances, events, and other forms of artistic expression. The Whitechapel Projects was developed in a 120 year Warehouse complex through an environmentally friendly construction process called adaptive reuse. Adaptive reuse takes a structure that has outlived its usefulness, deconstructs it, and rebirths it using its original construction material. During the deconstruction process, we harvested 72,000 bricks, over 3 tons of timbers, tin ceilings, doors, pipes and even plywood. The harvested material was used in the reconstruction process to pave the courtyard, build walls, furniture, bars, tables , tap handles, and more.

I can't speak enough about how easy it was to work with everyone at 26 West. They let us tweak the menu for our rehearsal dinner, and with views of the Navesink from upstairs it was a great night. The service was spot on, and in a day and age where there is a shortage of staff, they made sure everything was taken care of. Anything that anyone else needed they were on top of.
