Crystal Plaza 

5.0

Livingston, NJ
  • Venue
  • Up to 350 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $40,000

Before it became our beloved event venue, the historic Crystal Plaza was originally a residential mansion. The initial Livingston, New Jersey-based residence was built in the late 1800s by famed architect Stanford White, who was responsible for designing the Tiffany building on Fifth Avenue, the original Madison Square Garden complex among other landmark structures. While the restored building has since been reincarnated as one of the leading wedding and event spaces in the tri-state area, it still maintains the feeling of its 19th century grandeur. Our impeccable, white-glove service begins the moment you arrive. Crystal Plaza hosts only one event at a time, ensuring that our dedicated team focuses singularly on you and your every need. From the elegant Grand Ballroom boasting numerous chandeliers (how the Crystal Plaza name came to be) to the lush gardens that change beautifully with the seasons, there are myriad backdrops to complement your wedding, social affair or corporate event.

We had our wedding reception at Crystal Plaza on March 15, 2024 and I don't even know where to begin! I'll start by saying because of Crystal Plaza, we had the best day of our lives. When touring venues all I kept saying in my head was that I wanted something fresh and different. From the moment I walked in the door, I could sense that about Crystal Plaza. The venue holds onto the classic elegance you look for in a wedding, but with everything they have to offer, it puts a modern and fresh twist on classic beauty. Max took time to go through all aspects of our day at Crystal Plaza and was polite and accommodating since day 1. They were responsive and helpful through all of the wedding planning and when the day came we felt like royalty. The bridal and groom suites are out of this world and the bridal attendants are extraordinary. They even asked if I was too hot or cold and adjusted the temperature all day for me! They brought me a smoothie made there by request because I was having a hard time eating with all the excitement! I could go on and on. The cocktail hour is like nothing I have ever seen before and the food for dinner is actually delicious whereas at many weddings that is not the case. Every guest has been raving about the food, the service, and the seamless nature of our day. The best decision we made was booking Crystal Plaza for our wedding!

We loved working with Noelle and Daniela at LaElleKae. Even though we were planning a wedding reception in a short time frame (4 months), Noelle and Daniela were calm and cool the whole time while also making sure we got everything we wanted. Additionally, they were incredibly respectful of our budget and very easy to talk to. It's clear that they are experienced in working with all types of brides (and grooms) with all types of visions! Daniela especially went above and beyond for us, working diligently to get the perfect stage for our reception when everything seemed unavailable - she didn't give up. On top of that, we felt that the LaElleKae team were genuine people; they built a wonderful relationship with us, got to know us personally, and shared so much love for us!

We are a mother-daughter duo creating elegant floral decor in the Lehigh Valley area, Bucks County, Central and Northern New Jersey. Our favorite part of what we do is bringing JOY to our nearlyweds and minimizing the stress of the planning process.

Janet and Brooke brought the most beautiful bloom bar to my bridal shower this past weekend. The selection was absolutely gorgeous, and the quantity planned out perfectly, ensuring that all of the guests would have at least 8 flowers each. Everyone absolutely loved their bouquets and could not stop talking about how much they loved the opportunity to pick the flowers themselves and then have Janet arrange them in a beautiful cone with ribbon that she supplied. Janet was friendly and fun while helping guests, which added even more to the positive experience. I highly recommend Laurelbrook floral for any event and could not be more pleased with the bloom bar at my shower!

My studio, Face Space Esthetics, is located inside of Sola Salons at 1607 Rt. 23 South in Wayne, NJ.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot recommend Sophie enough for wedding make up. My wife and I used Sophie as our makeup artist for ourselves, our two moms, and my sister-in-law. Getting your make up done is an intimate process and sets the tone for the entire day and with Sophie there I felt beautiful and comfortable the whole time. We were not able to do a make up trial due to my schedule so she worked with me prior to my wedding day via zoom to make sure she knew exactly what I wanted. She sent me examples and helped me articulate my vision and even tried the looks on herself so that I could see them come to life. On the day of I felt so glam and powerful. My look lasted through performances and lots of dancing and my pictures from the end of the night are still STUNNING with no touch ups required (though she did provide us with the cutest touch up kits) My wife’s style and comfort with make up is much different than mine so she did a make up trial and Sophie helped her to find a look that was “wedding glam” but still felt authentic. Our looks were very different and incredibly “us” and showed off Sophie’s range and talent. Logistically, she is a complete professional with high end products that she organizes for ease of use and hygiene. Though my make up ran much longer than intended, she had anticipated that and so we still finished exactly on time. I never felt rushed or stressed - only like an absolute queen. It was the perfect way to start my wedding day and was worth every single penny.

With over a decade of experience, we’ve told countless stories—sometimes we can predict the moments, and other times they surprise us. But we’re always excited to discover and capture the next amazing story.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a mom, my daughter’s baptism was one of the most precious and joyful days of my life, and having Olya there to capture it was the best decision we made. From the moment she arrived, Olya felt like family. She was so warm and approachable, instantly putting us at ease, which made the entire day feel even more special. The photos Olya took are absolutely beautiful. She didn’t just capture the big moments of the ceremony, but all the little details that made the day unforgettable—the looks on our faces, the love in the room, and the happiness of our friends and family. Every time I look at the photos, I feel like I’m reliving that day all over again. Olya was incredible with my daughter. Baptisms can be a bit overwhelming, especially for little ones, but Olya was so patient and gentle. She made sure my daughter was comfortable, and the photos she captured are just filled with joy. I couldn’t have asked for anything more. The reception was such a fun celebration, and Olya managed to capture the energy and happiness perfectly! From the dancing to the laughter, every photo is bursting with life and love. I didn’t even notice her taking half the photos, but when I saw them, they felt so real and full of emotion. I can’t thank Olya enough for creating these beautiful memories that we’ll treasure forever. She captured the heart and soul of our day with such care, and I’m beyond grateful. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who truly captures the love and joy of life’s special moments!

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.

A coffee shop and an ice cream parlor is always on my list whenever I visit a new town.

Let’s work with each other :)

Our experience with Djaniella was amazing from the start. Our engagement shoot where we first met gave my husband and I the utmost confidence of our decision to book with Dj. She is fun, cool, calm, and creative- something we prioritized in finding our photographer. Our wedding day was obviously stressful and at times overwhelming, however Dj was always there and effortlessly brought calm into the room. She was highly complemented by our friends and family for being so kind and easy to work with. Clearly her work is incredibly beautiful as well, when she delivered "sneak peak" photos (the same night as the wedding may I add), both my husband and I were tearful. Of all of our vendors, I felt the most comfortable and myself throughout the day when with her. We would book her a million times over again, I cant recommend her enough!

I can’t say it enough that The Rockleigh should be at the top of everyone’s venue list. They were our 2nd of 3rd venues we were touring and we never went to our 3rd venue tour.

The venue is simply beautiful and left us and all our guests in awe. On top of a classy and beautiful venue, the service the staff provided is truly unforgettable. They will be at your side the entire day making sure you don’t have to lift a finger and ensure that your day goes as exactly as planned (and might I say better than you planned it to go).

When not behind the camera, I love traveling back home, crocheting, taking care of my chosen family, and creating in my photo lab! Each moment I capture is a testament to my love for love.

Andrea was our first choice for a wedding photographer and we were so lucky that she was available to shoot our wedding. We were looking for a candid-style wedding photographer with a relaxed, artistic style that’s both modern and timeless, and Andrea’s vibe aligned exactly with what we were seeking. Her eye for detail is astounding, and beyond her technical expertise, she is an absolute joy to work with. Andrea is extremely organized, kind, and creative. We are in awe of how filled with love and light the photos are. The most candid, intimate moments, captured artfully. We will treasure these photos forever.

I am a photo-documentary wedding photographer, specializing in capturing all the authentic and unscripted moments of your wedding day. With over 10 years of experience, I've proudly photographed hundreds (and hundreds) of weddings in NJ, NYC and destinations worldwide. Though my photography work has been published in magazines, and I've garnered my fair share of awards over the years, my proudest achievement till this day was when my youngest son finally learned how to ride a two-wheeler. I mean, c'mon: that's pretty awesome, right?

Cannot recommend Ben enough! We did our engagement pictures with Ben ahead of our wedding and they were 1000/10. He is a master at finding the perfect lighting and did the perfect mix of the more modern photos we love and the more traditional ones our parents/grandparents love. My husband and I are both terrible at posing but Ben kept us comfortable and laughing our entire wedding day and made our photos look so natural! He is hilarious and brought such positive energy the entire day - everyone in our bridal party couldn’t say enough wonderful things about Ben! Ben even gave us a few preview physical prints during our reception which was such a beautiful touch! Can’t recommend Ben enough!

A small studio in Union NJ with big plans! I have been a photographer for 6 years working as a freelancer. Like back in the day, learning on the field is the best way to learn everything about photography. Starting a Zola is the first step to branch from a freelancer to a business owner / photographer. I'm starting my own business for my baby, Xavier. Working at your wedding helps me be with my family longer.

We couldn't be happier with our wedding photos! Davide is an incredibly talented photographer who truly captured the essence of our special day. He was patient, dedicated, and attentive to every detail, making sure every moment was perfect. From the candid shots to the beautifully posed portraits, his work was really good. He made us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process, which really showed in the natural and authentic photos we received. Davide’s professionalism and passion for his craft were evident every step of the way. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer who will go above and beyond to make your memories unforgettable. Thank you, Davide!

We love Daphne Ashley Events!! We opted for the full planning service and have worked with Shay for over a year, she really helped us throughout the wedding planning process that it made our lives so easy and much less stressful than if we did it on our own!! During the day it went on so smoothly since it was Daphne and Shay working as a team. It was such a magical and special day and we can’t thank them enough!
