Waterloo Village is a truly magical venue, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience there. We first visited for a wedding and were immediately captivated by the rustic charm and historic atmosphere. After seeing how seamlessly everything ran that day, we knew it was the perfect place for our own wedding. The staff at Waterloo Village is outstanding—extremely friendly, helpful, and refreshingly low-pressure. They genuinely focus on making your day special without pushing you to spend beyond your budget. Their professionalism and warmth made the planning process enjoyable and stress-free. One of the highlights is their catering partner, JAM. Their commitment to farm-to-table dining is evident in every dish. Many of the ingredients are sourced fresh, some even from their urban garden, which adds a special touch. The food is not only fresh but absolutely delicious. If you’re looking for a beautiful venue with incredible staff and top-notch food, Waterloo Village is a fantastic choice!

My husband and I got married at the CKE this October 2024. There aren’t enough words to express our gratitude to their entire team for all of their hard work to make our visions and dreams come to life. Each and every staff member was kind, and helpful. If you had a question you’d get a response promptly and always with a “let’s see what we can do attitude”. Katherine (the owner) made you feel a part of the CKE family and always was looking to make the planning process seamless and easy for us and our family. The CKE floral and design team made our big ideas all come to life- we had a visions of big branching centerpieces with florals tucked in, that Jess and her team absolutely delivered on. On top of that, we asked for an installation over our sweetheart table. Jess and her team have many suggestions and shared they visited Home Depot at least 3 times to see how it would hang, and the final installation beyond exceeded our expectations. The talent and grace their team exudes is what ever bride and groom look for in a team. The planning process was also so seamless due to their amazing coordinator team. We worked with Katrina, the kindest, most professional coordinator we have ever met. Katrina was available at every step of the planning process, providing thoughtful recommendations due to her very obvious experience. Katrina also was there for our wedding day of helping to manage the schedule, set up, constantly checking in, and making sure it all went according to plan (which it did). In addition during the reception Katrina was checking with us throughout the night to see if we wanted to pivot anything or if we needed anything. We are extremely grateful for her support! In addition, Kyle was our maitre d’ for the evening and he did an absolutely wonderful job. He made sure to check in with my husband and I as well as our immediate family members. He was so kind and professional! Lastly but very importantly- the food and drinks! Most of all of our guests shared that this was the best wedding food they have ever had. It is no small feat cooking for large groups and every aspect of the food from the cocktail hour to the dinner course was absolutely fantastic. These are a few quotes from guests: - “The food was gourmet.” - “This is the real deal.” - “The sushi… Oh, the sushi! So fresh!” In addition, the bartenders crushed it! Everyone was impressed by the quality of the drinks and we never had a line at the bar- they were fast and catered to our guests. I would highly recommend the CKE to future couples getting married. The aspect of the family business really shows and ensures you have a tailored experience for your wedding. The entire staff is kind and down to earth- always willing to help. We wish them nothing but the best for their future wedding seasons!

We had our wedding at the Park Chateau, and from start to finish, the experience was flawless. There’s a reason the Park Chateau is considered the best wedding venue in the state — it’s simply unmatched! The venue is the epitome of luxury, with both the outdoor and indoor spaces being breathtakingly beautiful. The grounds are impeccably maintained, from the vibrant flowers to the tranquil water features. It truly felt like stepping into a fairytale. Guests were absolutely blown away by the setting alone. Every detail, from the architecture to the gardens, was picture-perfect, creating an atmosphere that felt elegant, timeless, and incredibly special. The food was also exceptional! The cocktail hour alone was a standout — our guests couldn’t stop raving about the variety, presentation, and flavor of every dish. Many were genuinely surprised when dinner was served afterward, assuming the cocktail hour had been the main meal because it was that impressive. Both the quantity and quality of the food exceeded all expectations. We received so many compliments from guests about how it was the best wedding food they’d ever had. Most standout, however, was their service. The Park Chateau has an entire team of dedicated professionals who made sure every single detail was executed seamlessly. From bridal attendants literally on their knees scrubbing dirt off my dress, to staff ensuring we always had a drink or a bite to eat, we felt completely cared for the entire day. They checked in on us constantly but never intrusively, even bringing water around while we danced to keep us hydrated and energized. Our families were treated with such respect and warmth, and their kindness and attentiveness were noticed by everyone. The team brought our vision to life with minimal effort on our part, allowing us to be fully present and soak in every moment. The Park Chateau is a premium venue, but it is worth every single penny. It gave us the wedding of our dreams!!

This is by far the most romantic, breath taking and incredible location for a wedding. My *now* husband, Todd, and I toured The North Shore house back in January 2025. We fell in love instantly and this was in the dead of winter where the trees were bare and the ground was frozen. We saw the pictures and I knew instantly that this venue would be stunning during the summer/fall time. I remember meeting the owner during that tour and how incredibly sweet she was. When the manager, Eric, gave us all the preliminary details, I began tearing up from excitement. “This is it,” I thought so I asked to have a moment with my fiancé to discuss, after nudging him under the table. When Eric left the room, I blurted out instantly, “This is it! We found it! I want it!” Todd agreed and so began the planning stages with Emma, our events coordinator. Emma is beyond prepared and brilliant. She asked us so many important questions and made the planning process easy. She was super detailed, super knowledgeable and clearly an expert in wedding planning. Her recommendations were always the best choices and she was incredibly responsive throughout. I cannot express to you how incredible she is and how much I recommend working with Emma. She’s lovely, brilliant, and made the entire journey less stressful. The day of our wedding, there were some unforeseen things that came up but Emma took care of everything. She was always direct, communicative and respectful. She thought of things way before we could anticipate the need. A small example of this was our extra flowers. We had flowers lined down the aisle during the ceremony. She asked if she could repurpose them during the reception once the ceremony concluded. We said yes. She immediately repurposed them as decoration by the bar and made the area more beautiful. Now, the venue and inn itself. All my guests voiced how stunning the venue is from the ceremony location outdoor by the lake, to the reception space with the polished wood, and each individual room. My guests are telling me they felt like they escaped the hustle and bustle of the metropolitan area to a completely new country on a mountain top by the lake. Everyone felt the romantic setting come to life. The best part? We had the entire place to ourselves since they only do 1 wedding per day, so your guests can walk the grounds without interrupting another ceremony. Let’s talk food! I will quote a friend of mine who ran up to me on the dance floor yelling, “OMG. THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST STEAK IVE EVER HAD AT A WEDDING!!!” People are raving to us constantly about the food. The lobster station was a hit! The hanger steak was by far the most loved dish. Every single selection was delicious. I loved how incredibly accommodating they are with allergies and dietary restriction. I’m gluten free, so anything I was given was made sure to be gluten free. Even the staff knew this so they alerted me what wasn’t gluten free so that I knew. The North Shore House makes your wedding dream come true; ours truly was the perfect day with the perfect weather and the perfect food.

We fell in LOVE with Johnson’s Locust Hall Farm from the moment we drove in! It was one of the first venues we saw and we knew we wouldn’t have to look any further. It’s an absolutely beautiful farm filled with sunflowers and wildflowers. We absolutely loved getting ready in the wonderful farm house estate right on the venue. Leading up to the wedding, Avery and the Johnson Locust Hall Farm family had great communication and were very accommodating. The day of the wedding, we literally had to worry about NOTHING. They took care of everything and they had everything planned out to a T. The cocktail hour was spectacular in the stone barn and the reception was amazing in the breezeway barn. We are SO over the moon to have gotten married here. We are so happy that we can also visit again during the fall and spring during their events & farm activities which makes it so special that we could see this gorgeous venue again. HIGHLY recommend.

As someone who has spent the last 11 years in the wedding industry, I've had the privilege of working at countless venues and seeing some truly incredible spaces. What's remarkable about Founders Grove is that somehow Denise and Amber have taken the very best parts of so many venues and thoughtfully brought them together into one place. The venue itself is stunning. Every detail feels intentional. From the flow of the property to the beauty of the ceremony and reception spaces, it's clear that this wasn't just built to host weddings. It was built to create experiences. The space feels elegant, welcoming, and incredibly versatile while still maintaining a warmth that makes it feel personal. What truly sets Founders Grove apart, however, is Denise and Amber. Denise has a calming presence and a genuine passion for serving couples. You can feel how deeply she cares about every person who walks through the doors. Amber brings an incredible vision, attention to detail, and energy that is reflected throughout the entire property. Together, they are an exceptional team whose love for what they do shines through in every interaction. My team at OnTheBeatFX had the honor of serving as the exclusive entertainment vendor during Founders Grove's opening weekend, and we were able to meet countless couples, families, and friends. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive. People weren't just impressed by the beauty of the venue. They felt welcomed, cared for, and excited about the experience being created there. For couples considering Founders Grove, know that you're not simply booking a beautiful venue. You're partnering with people who genuinely care about your wedding and are committed to helping create meaningful memories for you and your loved ones. With love, OnTheBeatFX

We cannot say enough great things about our wedding at Felina. Beyond it being a beautiful and unique space that gave us the most amazing photos, the food was impressive; every one of our guests could not stop talking about the raw bar, the sushi bar, the filet; many said it was the best food they've had at a wedding! The most important part of having our wedding at Felina was the people working there. From the start of the day, everyone was so kind and attentive. Carissa is amazing to work with and made us feel so special. Riccardo was beyond incredible the day of our wedding, keeping us hydrated and making sure we were taken care of the entire day. We had our dream wedding and have Carissa, Riccardo and the rest of the staff at Felina to thank for it!

We got married at The Mansion on Aug 10th and there are insufficient characters in this review box to capture our gratitude for what an impeccable place this was to get married. We initially chose the venue for ease of the location (we live a few blocks away). I hoped the food would be good, since we couldn't do a tasting, and just trusted it would all work out. THESE PEOPLE BLEW ME AWAY. The staff is awesome, from the Matre D, to the Bridal Attendant, to all the ways Jim and Nancy helped us tend to ever detail of the event, it was the most perfect day. The food was so delicious. Our guests are still talking to us about it weeks later. The cocktail hour was incredible. The main course was the best piece of meat I've ever had in my life. Everything was so fresh, and so delicious. My only regret of my wedding was that I didn't eat more than just a few bites of everything. I woke up the next morning craving the rest of my filet mignon, lol. We went with the "minimum" of everything included because we were on a budget, but it was all so abundant, generous and tasty. Even the dessert platters that came with the meal were amazingly delicious. The space itself is luxurious and beautiful. We had the whole venue to ourselves and the whole thing was just magical.

The Nassau Inn in Princeton, NJ was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the moment we started working with Amanda, the venue coordinator, we knew we were in good hands. She was extremely communicative, on top of things, and helpful throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself is beautiful, with an old-fashioned, cozy, and warm atmosphere that made our wedding feel like a dream. The fact that it is located so close to Princeton University was a bonus, as we were able to take stunning photos on the campus grounds. The food packages are great and offer a ton of food options. Our gorgeous cake was included in the package. Amanda and the entire Nassau Inn team ensured our day ran smoothly, even when we had to quickly move our ceremony indoors due to bad weather. They were kind, accommodating, and helped make our wedding day truly special. If you want a beautiful wedding, without any of the stress- book the Nassau Inn!

From the moment we stepped foot on the property we knew we landed on somewhere special. It was a no-brainer to pick Birchwood Manor as our wedding venue not only because of the beautiful grounds but how outstanding Farrell is. We had investigated about 10 venues but Birchwood Manor stood apart from them all. After having our wedding we can say how we made the right choice. All of the wedding party was comfortable and able to get ready on site. We were stress free to whole day. Farrell executed our plans every step of the way. She accommodated the entire Manor for us to use the entire day. The food ...and especially our wedding cake was out of this world. Our guests enjoyed our special day as much as we did. We are so very thankful to Farrell and how amazing everything turned out and so happy we chose this venue. To any bride out there I highly recommend this venue.

I know what you’re thinking — isn’t that a restaurant? It is, but it’s also one of the most amazing wedding venues you could ever dream of. From the very first meeting, you’ll work with Judy, the event manager, and let me tell you, she is a true rockstar. Judy doesn’t just help plan your day; she makes the impossible possible. Every idea I threw her way, no matter how out-of-the-box, she brought to life. I wanted a roaming cannoli bar — I got it. I wanted drinks served out of a canoe and a freshly shucked oyster bar — I got those too. Nothing was too big, too small, or too complicated for her. She is hands down one of the hardest-working, most detail-oriented people you will ever meet. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. It wasn’t just your standard “wedding food” — it was fresh, flavorful, and truly unique to the Deauville experience. Weeks later, our guests are still raving about how it was some of the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding. And the location itself? Unmatched. There’s something so magical about being right on the water — it feels both relaxed and elegant at the same time. When I first toured, Judy told me, “The night will already be memorable because of the location.” She couldn’t have been more right. Between the setting sun, the ocean breeze, and the warm glow of the venue, it was beyond anything I could have imagined. It was, without a doubt, the most amazing venue we could have ever chosen. 10/10 recommend — if you’re even considering it, stop thinking and just book it.

The Flanders was a wonderful experience from start to finish!! We got married on New Year’s Eve and we will not be able to top any NYE to follow! Lisa and Molly were so great to work with! Molly was great with communicating all the details and answering all our questions! Lisa walked us through everything from food to table settings to order of the night. The food was PHENOMENAL! Everyone raved and still raves about the variety of food, the quality, the cocktail hour and ending the night with Taste of the Boardwalk. If you go hungry, it’s your own fault! The service there was second to none. Joanne and her staff were wonderful and were always anticipating our thoughts. We stayed at Flanders during that weekend. The Promenade suites made it so easy to get ready and access the Ballrooms. Our guests and bridal party stayed in the regular suites and loved each room! Highly recommend going with their list of recommended vendors, it makes everything so much easier. Getting married at The Flanders was always my dream and I cannot recommend it more to others!!

The Silo was a dream wedding venue! The high ceilings, gorgeous chandeliers, and amazing backlighting led to wonderful pictures. We had several guests comment on how beautiful the venue was. We utilized floating candles for our centerpieces which played amazingly with the added candles provided by the Farmhouse. The staff was attentive, helpful, and communicative. They paid attention to detail and were always available to put our minds at ease. We also rented the bridal suite and groom’s suite. Both suites were spacious, filled with entertainment, and included private bathrooms and mini fridges. There was plenty of space for my hair and makeup team.. We all had a wonderful time getting ready for the wedding. The food and chef were absolutely incredible. We were able to completely customize the menu by adding things like garlic mashed potatoes and chicken francese. What really stood out is that it felt like we were giving our guests a high end restaurant meal, rather than cookie cutter wedding food.

About wedding venues in New Jersey

Why Choose New Jersey for Your Wedding Day?

New Jersey gives you four distinct regions with unique wedding settings and styles to match any vision. September tops the charts for wedding inquiries here, so you'll want to plan ahead if you're eyeing a date during peak season. The varied landscapes mean you can find everything from waterfront elegance to historic charm without traveling far.

What Types of Wedding Venues Can You Find in New Jersey?

The venue scene in New Jersey covers just about every style imaginable. Luxury estates like Park Chateau in East Brunswick offer stunning French-inspired architecture with gorgeous European gardens that make for incredible photo backdrops. If water views are your thing, places like Liberty House showcase breathtaking NYC skyline panoramas right alongside the water. History buffs fall in love with venues like Pleasantdale Chateau in West Orange with its historic grounds and Mediterranean gardens. Modern couples gravitate toward industrial spaces such as The Art Factory in Paterson where contemporary design meets character and uniqueness.

How Much Should You Budget for a New Jersey Wedding?

Wedding venues in New Jersey typically run between $8,600 and $10,600, which falls right in line with the national range of $6,500-$12,000. Your overall costs will scale with your guest count. A 50-person celebration averages around $25,059 while stepping up to 100 guests pushes that to $41,588. Mid-sized weddings with 150 guests come in around $57,123 and larger gatherings of 200 reach about $71,002. Going bigger? Expect to invest around $84,881 for 250 guests or $98,761 for 300 guests. These figures help you set realistic expectations as you start planning.
