Featuring a working mill, blacksmith shop, active church, and several beautiful historic houses, Waterloo Village is a time capsule surrounded by an air of tranquil beauty. With its rich history, Waterloo Village is the perfect setting for weddings. Boasting two spectacular indoor event spaces—the newly-renovated meeting house and the rustic pavilion—in addition to its spacious outdoor compound, Waterloo has the resources and ambiance to make your special occasion a memorable success. As a remarkably well-preserved example of a 19th-Century canal town and the site of a 400-year-old Lenape Indian village, Waterloo Village is an incredibly valuable piece of New Jersey history. Waterloo is open to the public as part of Allamuchy Mountain State Park and home to many events and educational programs to teach and inform visitors about the past.

From the moment we first reached out to SkyView Golf Club, their communication was responsive, informative, and super friendly and professional. Jenn was absolutely incredible to work with and I am so happy that she was there with us every step of the way! The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, with stunning views that provided the perfect backdrop for our wedding day. On the wedding day, our bridal suite attendant (Riley) and cabin attendant (Axel) were more than amazing and made our entire experience that much more perfect! Despite the rain that required us to move the ceremony indoors, the SkyView team executed the change flawlessly and made the space look absolutely stunning. Our guests raved about the amazing food and the attentive staff that went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was more than perfect. We had family calling us days after the wedding saying they wished they could be back at our cocktail hour all over again - it was that good!! We couldn't have asked for a better venue and would HIGHLY recommend SkyView Golf Club to any couple looking for an amazing, worry-free wedding experience.

I cannot rave more about Bello Giorno Estates. We just had our wedding on Saturday and Stephanie was wonderful to have as a coordinator. She made my vision come to life with the decor and was so sweet and helped me with anything I needed, including a few dress mishaps! Monica runs the business and is such a generous and gracious woman, as are all of the staff. Highly recommend this venue for anyone with a small intimate wedding.

My husband and I chose this as our wedding venue. Some months before our wedding they had implemented a team of women to help with any questions and planning. These ladies were extremely helpful with answering questions and were typically quick to respond. The day before our wedding, we went to set up the tables and decorations I had made. The inn keeper Tricia was super kind and let me feel like I had a full run of the venue to do whatever I had envisioned. She basically told me I could do whatever I needed, and if I needed extra hands for help to let her know and she would get me help. The day of the wedding was very hot, and there was an unfortunate breakdown of the AC in our getting ready room and suite for the night. They placed us in the next Best room for the night and got us in a cooler space for getting ready. Even with that, if I had to do the wedding all over again, I wouldn’t have changed a thing. I am so grateful to the team working with me leading up to the wedding day as well as everybody involved to make our wedding day so special. If you choose this place as your wedding venue, I feel as though you will not be disappointed, even when things go wrong.

We had the pleasure of hosting our wedding at Rutherfurd Hall earlier this year, and we can't speak highly enough of the experience. From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect. The venue itself is breathtaking—elegantly designed with gorgeous views, and it has an atmosphere that feels both luxurious and intimate. It was everything we dreamed of and more. Especially when we had a lot of challenges finding a venue for an Indian wedding to fit all your needs! A huge part of what made our day so unforgettable was the incredible service provided by the Director, Nick Serraino. From our very first meeting, Nick went above and beyond to ensure all your requests were accepted. He was incredibly kind, and always available to answer questions (which we had many of) or offer help! His professionalism and warm personality made the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. We can’t thank him and his team enough! If you’re looking for a venue that not only offers stunning surroundings but also a team that genuinely goes the extra mile to make your day perfect, look no further than Rutherfurd Hall.

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.

A Dream Wedding at the Ryland Inn We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful and convenient venue than the Ryland Inn for my daughter’s wedding day. From the stunning location to the seamless flow between the ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and photo opportunities—all in one place—it made everything so easy for us and our guests. We didn’t have to travel anywhere, which allowed us to truly relax and enjoy every moment. The service was absolutely exceptional. The entire staff was warm, professional, and genuinely kind. They were attentive to every detail and incredibly accommodating, going above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Being able to get ready on-site made the day even more stress-free and special. A special thank you to Giana Phillips, our amazing event stylist. She was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the entire planning process and on the big day. She anticipated our needs and handled everything with grace and care. It truly was a day to remember, and we are so grateful to the Ryland Inn for helping bring our vision to life so perfectly. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a top-tier wedding experience.

We had already picked another venue in February and they just stopped responding to us so we had to go looking for another one in October. We had a very meager budget and we knew that finding a venue in NJ within that budget would be an almost impossible feat. But Bill worked with us and gave us everything we could have ever asked for and more. Dani, their general manager who joined after we booked, was AMAZING. She was on top of the event the whole night, both Bill and Dani checked in with us through the entire wedding, making sure we had eaten or that we always had a drink on hand. The pavilion was beautiful, the food was incredible, the staff was amazing, the entire thing was flawless. As a bride, I cannot imagine having a better experience, there is no other venue in this entire state that I would have trusted more than Mainline. I will continue to sing their praises from the rooftops because they deserve it. They worked seamlessly with all of my vendors. If you are looking for a place to host your wedding, or any other important event for that matter, choose mainline. They will not disappoint you. I will be forever grateful for the hard work and support that Dani and Bill put into our wedding and I will definitely be returning for whatever other events I have in the future because they are just that fantastic. Thank you so much Mainline, for giving us the wedding of our dreams!!

Our wedding at Crossed Keys Estate was an absolute dream come true! From the moment we arrived, we knew this was the venue of our dreams. Danielle, our honorary flower girl, was one of the very first people who made that feeling real for us. She radiates kindness and warmth, and from day one, she made us feel welcomed, supported, and genuinely cared for. Danielle played such a meaningful role in bringing us to Crossed Keys, and we will forever be grateful to her for helping make this dream a reality. From the very first moment to the final goodbye, every single person we encountered went above and beyond in ways we never could have imagined. This is not just a venue. This is a family. Traci deserves her own standing ovation. She worked with us for months and never once fumbled a detail. Calm, organized, proactive, and endlessly kind, Traci made the entire planning process feel seamless and stress-free. On the wedding day itself, she was everywhere without ever being intrusive, anticipating needs before we even voiced them. When my bustle broke mid celebration, Traci and Kathrine, the owner, were literally on their hands and knees safety pinning my dress so I could be comfortable and keep dancing. That level of care and professionalism is rare, and it is unforgettable. Kathrine’s husband personally went to the Inn to retrieve items we forgot. Not once, but twice. That alone says everything you need to know about the people behind this place. The food deserves serious recognition. Every course was thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and absolutely incredible. From cocktail hour through dinner, the quality and flavor were consistently next level. Guests are still talking about how good everything was, and several told us it was the best wedding food they have ever had. It was clear that the kitchen takes immense pride in what they serve, and it showed in every bite. The drinks were equally impressive and expertly crafted, adding to an already unforgettable experience. Every member of the staff was extraordinary, but a very special thank you to Barb, our incredible server, who made it her personal mission to keep us hydrated, fed, and happy. She followed us around all night, making sure we had water, drinks, and that we actually ate. She all but spoon-fed me, fully aware that I was never leaving that dance floor. Thank you for packing us pastries! They were absolutely delicious and the perfect ending to a perfect day! Jess, come on girl!! You and your team completely outdid yourselves. The decor was stunning and brought our entire vision to life in a way that exceeded every expectation. We are honestly at a loss for words. Crossed Keys Estate treats you like family, and that is something you feel in every interaction, every detail, and every moment of your day. A gigantic thank you to everyone at CKE. This is a place we will hold close to our hearts for years to come!

Nestled in the rolling hills of Northwestern New Jersey, wedding venue Bear Brook Valley offers a unique blend of refined countryside elegance and sophisticated industrial charm. With only one wedding per day, we provide an intimate, bespoke experience for every couple. From breathtaking views to globally inspired cuisine and a dedicated team, we’re here to make your wedding unforgettable.

My husband and I got married at Bear Brook Valley this past weekend and it was absolutely PERFECT! Our experience with the Bear Brook team since we booked our date with them two years ago has been amazing. The renovations they completed last year are absolutely stunning. The boys absolutely loved getting ready in the new speakeasy lounge, the golf simulator was a huge hit! Our guests raved about the food and drinks. Our coordinator, Amanda was incredible! Not only did she walk me through the planning process (we did not hire an official wedding planner), but she responded promptly to all my questions via email and executed my entire vision the day of the wedding! Everything ran super smoothly. Our bridal and groom suite attendants, Amber and Cameron, were on top of everything the entire wedding day! Anytime we needed anything they were there. They were constantly making sure we had a drink in hand if we needed one, Amber helped me get a stain out of my dress, and they both graciously steamed all of the dresses and tuxes! Something we both absolutely love about Bear Brook is that their team makes you feel special and valued. They truly value making sure your day is the best it can be, which was not my experience touring other venues. Because of this incredible team, I was able to enjoy every minute of my day without any stress! If you’re considering booking Bear Brook - DO IT! We genuinely cannot recommend them enough!

Bridgewater Manor was an incredible venue for our wedding. Alyssa was amazing - she was very prompt in returning our emails and phone calls, and was incredibly helpful in answering all of our questions throughout the planning process. On the day of our wedding, Alyssa was extremely attentive and made sure I was ready for the ceremony, even helping to put my husband's boutonniere on correctly. I was very nervous right before walking down the aisle, but Alyssa was there to calm my nerves. Adele was also fantastic all night long - he made sure we had food and drinks during cocktail hour and was available to assist us with anything we needed. I never had to hesitate to ask Adele for help. The entire Bridgewater Manor team contributed to making our wedding day so special and stress-free. We are so grateful for their incredible service and attention to detail.

Our wedding at Shawnee was nothing short of magical. Our wedding took place on October 5, 2024, at Shawnee Inn. From the moment we secured the venue, Tabitha was incredibly supportive and consistently available to assist us. We hosted our entire wedding weekend at this location, and our guests thoroughly enjoyed their experience. Upon our arrival on Thursday, Jorge welcomed us warmly and provided invaluable assistance in transporting our wedding items to the conference room. On Friday, our guests participated in a round of golf, with JJ and Nick playing a pivotal role in organizing the outing. That evening, we held a welcome barbecue for all attendees, where the food was fantastic and the staff exemplary. On the morning of our wedding, we were treated to brunch while we prepared for the ceremony. Tabitha checked in frequently to ensure everything was proceeding smoothly. Our wedding ceremony was held outdoors on the lawn, which was breathtaking. It was followed by cocktail hour under the pavilion, which was truly stunning. The food and service during the cocktail hour were outstanding, with LaCresha ensuring that we, the brides, were well-fed and had drinks in hand. The reception took place in the main ballroom, where the dinner was delicious and the staff continued to impress us with their service. We concluded the celebration at the Brewery, where the staff was exceptionally accommodating and friendly. It was a flawless day, and we are immensely grateful to everyone involved. We had no complaints whatsoever. The following day, we hosted a farewell brunch on the front porch, and once again, the staff was attentive, and the food was remarkable. The bloody mary bar was incredible. Our guests are still raving about the wonderful time they had at Shawnee. The hotel itself is beautiful and exudes charm; although it is an older establishment, it possesses a unique character. The friendly and helpful staff significantly enhanced our special day. We highly recommend Shawnee to anyone seeking a memorable venue.
