If we could give more than five stars, we absolutely would! Our son and daughter-in-law couldn't have chosen a more perfect venue to begin their lives together. From our very first meeting with Lauren and James to the last dance of the evening, everything was simply perfect. Their attention to detail, kindness, professionalism, and genuine care made the entire day feel effortless. Every member of the staff went above and beyond, allowing our family to relax and truly enjoy every moment. Our guests are still talking about the wedding—especially the food! We've heard countless compliments, including, "That was the best steak I've ever had at a wedding!" The food and service were exceptional. Lauren and James don't just host weddings—they create unforgettable memories. We are so grateful for everything they did to make our family's day so magical. We will treasure those memories forever and wholeheartedly recommend this venue to anyone looking for the perfect place to celebrate.

I am still riding the high from my wedding hosted at Skyview Golf Club and I can't say enough great thing. If you're planning a wedding this is your venue. Not only is it one of the more affordable wedding venues in North Jersey, the staff and specifically coordinator Hildegard Power, are incredible at what they do. Hildegard walked me through the entire planning process, maintained the excitement and quickly answered all of questions (no matter how repetitive or the hour). The venue itself, without any additional decor, is stunning. Modern, open layout that accentuate the natural scenery. The bartenders were incredible, my guests are still asking me for recipes from our signature drinks (house cocktails suggested an made by Skyview) and the food was delicious. Hildegard ensured we actually got to eat on our wedding day, enjoy our choices and savor each moment and bite. The options for food, both cocktail hour and dinner are extraordinary--it became my husband and I's favorite date night activity to try to narrow down our favorite menu items. Eating them all on the big day was icing on the cake. I had a very specific vision for my wedding and Hildegard worked with me and my family to bring it to life, from decor drop-off and organization to final touches and last minute changes on the big day. More than anything, the most worthwhile and best thing I got from Skyview was reassurance and peace of mind. As a bride, there are a million decisions you have to make and even more things that will creep into your mind to worry you. I was never once worried that something may go wrong or fall through at Skyview. Hildegard built a strong foundation of trust and communication with us that truly made the big day everything I hoped. I was able to be in the moment and enjoy every second of my wedding to the fullest thanks to Skyview.

Multiple guests shared that this was the best food they had had at a wedding. - We agree If I had to give advice to couples in the beginning stages of wedding planning I would share the following: 1. When choosing a wedding venue, many people focus on the location and overlook the food. But food matters — it’s what your guests will remember. And Terrain delivers. The food is incredible and absolutely worth prioritizing. 2. I spent too much time worrying about the little details. I’d tell any future couple: trust Terrain, trust the venue — it’s beautiful. Don’t stress over the small things you feel you need to control; Terrain has it covered. 3. If the only availability at Terrain is a Friday — book it! A Friday wedding means you get to celebrate your wedding all weekend long. (our guests loved having two days to relax and recover after the wedding) 4. Terrain is perfect — the atmosphere is magical. It truly becomes even more special when all your closest friends and family are there, filling the space. Overall everything was amazing — Madison, our event coordinator was absolutely incredible, I could not have asked for a better coordinator, the food was outstanding, and the venue was perfect. I couldn’t have imagined a better place or team to help us celebrate our special day. I hate that it’s over!

From the very first tour at American Beauty Events/Embassy Suites in Berkeley Heights, we already knew this place was special. Walking into the stunning glass house absolutely wowed us and instantly made us feel like our wedding vision could truly come to life there. What made the experience even more unforgettable was the incredible team behind it all. Lynda, the director, was an absolute blessing throughout the entire planning process. Her communication, coordination, warmth, and genuine care made us feel supported every step of the way. She truly held our hands through it all and made what could have been stressful feel seamless and exciting. The chefs went above and beyond to create an amazing menu while also thoughtfully incorporating and tweaking dishes to honor our culture. Every bite was incredible, and our guests are still talking about the food! The add-ons, especially the lechon and hors d’oeuvres, were phenomenal and such a huge hit during the celebration. Christina was also wonderful in helping coordinate everything on the day of the wedding, making sure things flowed beautifully. The rooms for us and our guests were beautiful, comfortable, and made the entire weekend feel even more special and relaxing. And an extra special shoutout to Patty and Sonia — words truly cannot express our gratitude for these two amazing women. They did so much more than catering or event service. Patty especially took such incredible care of John and I throughout the entire night — from helping bustle my wedding gown, making sure we actually ate, reminding us to hydrate, checking in on us constantly, and even making sure we had moments to breathe and enjoy the celebration. That level of care, kindness, and attentiveness meant the world to us. We genuinely felt so loved and taken care of. We are beyond grateful to the entire Embassy Suites Berkeley Heights/American Beauty Events team for making our wedding day feel magical, smooth, warm, and unforgettable. Thank you for treating us not just like clients, but like family. We will forever cherish the memories you helped create.

I can’t express how amazing Stone House is as a wedding venue. Our guests could not stop raving about how beautiful and magical Stone House is as a venue, how attentive and professional all the staff are (big shoutout to Michelle for working with us so closely to make the day so special for us, for Sarah who stayed right by our side answering all our questions and going out of her way to even be with us on our wedding day-making us feel so special, to Mercedes who made everything run on point the day-of, end to end, and Rebecca for being such an attentive bridal attendant and making it so much easier to move around in a big dress!) Everything was so perfect and that’s all due to the Stone House staff. L They were so on top of everything -I (a serial worrywart) didn’t worry about a single thing that day. Thanks so much Stone House! Also the food is AMAZING!!

Don’t overlook the Short Hills Hilton for your wedding! It was the perfect location for our big day, offering a central gathering spot where our guests didn’t have to worry about traveling throughout the day. We explored several traditional venues, but none felt as right as this one. We had a November wedding and didn’t expect to have an outdoor ceremony, but the hotel’s lovely patio space was a wonderful option, and surprisingly, the noise from the JFK Parkway wasn’t an issue. For our indoor ceremony, the venue features a permanent enclosed tent structure. At first glance, it didn’t seem like much, but with the help of the event coordinator Vivian Cohen’s help and coordination with our florist, the space was transformed into something breathtaking. The reception space was spacious and perfect for our 170 guests—large enough for everyone to feel comfortable but not so big that it felt empty. Guests still rave about the food and service! The chef and maître d' truly deserve all the praise. The hors d’oeuvres were diverse and delicious, from sliders to a pasta bar to sushi. We chose the salmon and short ribs for dinner, which we selected during a private tasting session. The hotel grounds, filled with foliage, were perfect for photos, especially as we were lucky to have beautiful fall colors for our shoot. Victoria at the Hilton was incredibly helpful with coordinating room blocks, hotel room gift bags, and storage. Vivian was a dream to work with—she was welcoming, communicative, and made everything run smoothly. Her checklist was a lifesaver for keeping track of details, and she was hands-on with day-of coordination, ensuring everyone knew where they needed to be and helping with the little touches that made everything perfect. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or team to help make our wedding day unforgettable!

As a wedding officiant, I've had the pleasure of working with many venues, but The Olde Mille Inn truly stands out as an iconic, singular celebration site. From the moment you step into the inn itself or its historic restaurant, "The Grain House", (recently voted one of the most romantic restaurants in NJ!), you feel the warmth and hospitality they're famous for! There are so many pretty photo backdrops in every season! Having a beautiful, dog-friendly hotel on site so the wedding parties and family can gather and celebrate together is another amazing bonus that helps the day run seamlessly! Their people are just phenomenal, from their planning staff to the day-of coordination. They go above and beyond to ensure every detail is perfect, allowing couples to truly relax and enjoy their wedding celebration. Literally, nothing is left up to chance! For couples seeking a truly personalized ceremony and reception, I can't recommend the Olde Mill highly enough. They're incredibly accommodating and flexible, allowing you to create a day that reflects your unique love story. (And they have the best fried calamari in the state!) I'd encourage any couple searching for the perfect wedding setting to begin their search here. It may be the first and last place you tour!

Their service was absolutely impeccable! We felt waited on hand and foot! My husband and I celebrated our rehearsal dinner and wedding at the Grain House. Both events were better than I could have ever dreamed of! The team is helpful from the moment you book. My guests felt so taken care of and absolutely loved the grounds, the food, the service and the lodging. Kate and John were an absolute pleasure to work with and really went above and beyond to help make our big day memorable. Andrea’s service at the rehearsal dinner was unmatched! We tattooed each other at the alter and had greek dancers preform after dinner; John immediately asked what we needed so he could get it done. Our ceremony got rained out and John made our back up plan seem like it’s what we wanted in the first place. Truly couldn’t recommend a better place to celebrate at!

From the planning appointments with Alex, to the final appointment with David and everything in between, the communication from The Palace at Somerset Park was perfect. They were clean, professional, and detail-oriented, handling all the coordination with our vendors so I didn't have to worry about a thing.

There were quite a bit of rules and miscommunications along the way. This made the experience, especially during the end of the engagement season and the actual wedding day a bit dramatic and exhausting. However, this could be avoided if every single detail is ironed out from the very beginning and you are giving consistent reminders of what you're anticipating your day to be like. Overall, the venue is gorgeous and every single area of it is grounds for awesome photo-ops. On a gorgeous day, you will absolutely not regret choosing this location. Not only is it super affordable, but they also give you the freedom to pick your other vendors to create your ideal wedding (as almost everything else is kind of "a la carte"). A bonus is that you get the whole grounds on your wedding day, so that's exciting for you and your guests!
