We were so glad we found Meadow Brook Inn! It checked off all of the boxes for us AND the staff were awesome to work with. We dreamt of having our ceremony outdoors in nature and despite a little bit of rain, the MBI team made sure our dreams came true. Marisa was communicative throughout the process and guided us through our ceremony rehearsal. Our guests raved about the appetizers and desserts and over all we had a joyful experience. The ceremony space was so peaceful, the lawn is elegant and charming, and the reception hall, lounge, and bar are all spacious and comfortable. We were able to come in the day before to decorate before our rehearsal and add our own personal touch the the venue. I am so grateful we found MBI and that we were able to host our wedding here :) Thank you Marisa, Gabe, Brian, and to the whole MBI team for making this once in a lifetime celebration so special for all of us!

I attended Camp JORI for many years as a camper, staff member, administrator, and volunteer. Camp JORI is such an amazing camp, helping with scholarships for families that can’t afford it while providing the same amazing experience for all children. Camp JORI is not only an amazing camp, but is truly a home away from home for me and many other alumni and current campers. I love Camp JORI so much that my wife and I decided to have our wedding there! It was the most magical day of our life and getting to spend it at Camp JORI’s beautiful property was not only heartwarming, but amazing to marry the person I love most at the place that feels the most like home to me.

We had an incredible experience with Saphire Event Group. From the very beginning, the entire team was professional, kind, and genuinely invested in making our wedding day perfect. A huge shoutout to Lexie, our event Producer—she was truly amazing. Lexie was with us every step of the way, from the planning process and being there for day-of coordination, and made the entire process feel seamless and stress-free. One of the biggest benefits of working with Saphire Event Group is how much they offer in-house. They provided our food, event space setup (like chairs), linens, silverware, glassware, alcohol, and more. Having so many services under one vendor made planning incredibly easy and eliminated so much stress. The only things we outsourced were florals and our sound system. They were also fantastic about working within our budget and helping us make thoughtful choices without ever feeling pressured.

If I could give Essex Club 100 stars, I would. The staff is top notch and will go above and beyond to make your day perfect. Jessica is the best person to be handling your wedding during the planning stage, she makes everything feel simple and stress-free. Rob, the maître d’, will keep everything moving seamlessly on the big day and Julissa, my bridal attendant, was always there when I needed her for anything, no matter how big or small. The food is amazing (shout out to the Asiago rice balls!!!), the grounds are beautiful, and the ballroom and cocktail hour space have a romantic and intimate feel. The price is incredibly reasonable if you do their complete wedding package. We chose to upgrade certain parts of the package but that’s totally up to each individual couple. I still feel like we got the best deal for our money. We got married on Saturday, April 18th. It was the most perfect day I could have asked for!! I feel like Essex Club is a hidden gem and I want to take out an ad in the paper for them because people have no idea what they are missing by not booking with them.

So, I may be slightly biased due to the fact that Claudio is a friend of my wife, but he is so dedicated to his craft and excellence in professionalism, I cant even imagine anyone else being able to adhere to a couple's needs in coordinating the day of and pre wedding preparations. Having claudio at RJD is like having a free wedding coordinator. If you can pair him with Steve Martins, you will guarantee professionalism and excellence.

Kacey and the team at Saphire were amazing to work with. We loved knowing upfront the all-inclusive cost of the venue without nickel and dime up-charges. The Lakehouse design and backdrop spoke for themselves and we heard from a majority of the guests that it was the most beautiful space and the best food they’ve ever experienced at a wedding. We were incredibly happy with our choice and felt taken care of by Kacey every step of the way. I would highly recommend!!

We couldn't have asked for a better experience at Georgina's Weddings & Banquets. From our first conversation, Harold was responsive and easy to work with, making the whole planning process feel smooth. I could not ask for a better day of coordinator than Harold. On the day of our wedding, Harold coordinated everything with such care and attention that we barely had to think about a thing. I told him some ideas that I had and he took my vision and brought it to life!! When I first walked into the ballroom I was amazed at how beautiful it was and how my vision had come together so perfectly without me having to think or worry about anything. Harold also ensured that neither myself nor the groom had an empty drink in our hands all night, personally delivering fresh drinks to us while we danced the night away on the dance floor. The staff moved fast and stayed friendly throughout the night, and our bartenders kept the drinks flowing without a hitch. I received countless compliments from guests about how amazing their meals were and how quickly dinner service went. Each guest was delivered their meals still hot! Georgina's delivered an elegant celebration that looked beautiful without breaking the bank. We'd absolutely recommend them to any couple looking for an affordable venue that doesn't sacrifice on quality.

Best day of my life! If you’re looking for a whimsical fairytale wedding (that feels like one not just looks like one)… look no further than Chateau at Coindre Hall. John is so helpful and made the day go so smoothly, and Mikayla was so very helpful. Added bonus: their vendor package is great for any type-b brides like me who would not know where to start planning a wedding but are too stubborn to hire a planner. Honestly… I could not have asked for a more perfect venue.

Not only are they incredibly professional and talented, but they’re also some of the kindest, most thoughtful people we've had the pleasure of working with. From the moment we arrived, they made us feel completely cared for. They welcomed us so warmly, checked in throughout the day, and handled every little hiccup with grace and efficiency. (Often before we even realized anything needed attention.) While we didn’t have the most hands-on coordinator, the Falls Creek team never missed a step. They stepped in seamlessly, going above and beyond to ensure everything ran perfectly. Thanks to them, our wedding day was not only beautiful but truly stress-free and more than we ever imagined. We’re so grateful for everything they did to make our day so special. We can’t recommend them highly enough!

Venue considerations

  • No on-site guest accommodations

  • Not wheelchair accessible
My husband and I got married at Terrydiddle Farm on June 29, 2024 and it was MAGICAL. Lissa and her team, the impeccable grounds, the horses, the lawn games, Sophie the dog... Everything was absolutely perfect and everything we were looking for. Tons of our guests, friends and family raved about our venue, saying it is the best wedding venue they have ever been to. When we toured Terrydiddle, we said we'd take a bit to think about it, and we called Lisa to confirm 10 minutes after leaving the property. A great perk they have is their "open house" where you can tour the venue while they have it set up for a wedding. It gives you such a great idea of what your day will look like. The bridal suite is so cute and was so helpful for our morning and holding our belongings, the barn and cocktail area is perfect for mingling with people after the ceremony, and the lawn games are just the best touch. Tons of our guests were playing corn hole! The fire pit was awesome for us and our guests too, and we included a cigar table, which was a huge hit! We used Terrydiddle's staff for our bar services, which worked out perfectly. The reception tent is so beautiful and the rental options (arbor, sweetheart table, barrels, etc) make things so helpful for decor purposes and eased some of my stress, as we mostly did mostly DIY. Lissa and her team do an amazing job keeping their property clean and gorgeous. The perfect wedding venue through and through.
