“We started the wedding planning process by starting to look at venues. Falkirk was the first venue we had toured and immediately fell in love with it. From seeing the golf course, the waterfall, the gazebo, and incredible views, it was breathtaking and we imagined ourselves getting married there immediately. We met with Andrea during our tour, and had the pleasure of getting to work with her throughout our planning process, and was absolutely incredible on the day of our wedding! She made herself available to answer our (many) questions, going over timelines, and ensuring that our vision and dreams for the day came true. They had it all, from phenomenal staff to incredible food, not to mention the stunning views. We could not have asked for better! They truly make you feel like a VIP throughout the entire wedding weekend. Andrea was an absolute gem to work with, and made sure everything we dreamed of came true. And when we got the opportunity to have fireworks during our reception?! To this day, we have friends and family still talking about the firework show. Andrea worked seamlessly with other vendors and the firework staff to make sure it was a surprise show that no one would forget. Our wedding day was a dream, and we are so glad we had it at the Falkirk Estate and Country Club. We are so incredibly happy we got the pleasure to work with them, and would recommend any couples that are starting the wedding planning process, to reach out to them.”

“My husband and I had the pleasure of hosting our wedding at The Views at Mt Fuji and could not have been happier with our choice! Pia and her team were a delight to work with every step of the way. Communication was fast, honest, easy, and open - Pia always responded quickly to emails and was upfront about options and pricing.

“Absolutely magical. Getting married at Rushmore Estate was like stepping into a dream. From the moment we arrived at the grand gated entry to our lakeside bonfire after-party, everything was beyond what I ever imagined. The property is stunning, with 50 acres of pure serenity, scenic views, trails, and that private lake? Unreal. The staff was incredible—so helpful, patient, and genuinely dedicated to bringing our vision to life. What really set the experience apart was how thoughtful and accommodating they were from start to finish. Months before the wedding, they helped coordinate an amazing bachelorette weekend for me and my bridesmaids. They arranged airport pickups, planned day trips into the city, and even recommended a walking trail right on the property. The night before the wedding, we had a peaceful slumber party in one of the estate’s suites. No stress, just laughter, wine, and the kind of calm I never thought possible before a wedding. Every single detail, from the day trips to the fire pit after-party, was handled with care. If you're looking for a venue that’s elegant, relaxing, and full of heart, Rushmore Estate is it.”

“If I could give Skylands Manor and Frungillo Caterers more than five stars, I would. From the moment our guests drove up the tree-lined entrance to the final song of the evening, every single detail felt like something out of a fairytale. Skylands Manor is, without question, one of the most breathtaking wedding venues in New Jersey. The historic manor, stunning gardens, mountain views, and timeless architecture created the perfect backdrop for the most important day of our lives. What truly sets this venue apart, however, is the team behind it. The staff made us feel like we were the only wedding that mattered. Every detail was handled with professionalism, warmth, and genuine care, allowing us to be completely present and enjoy every moment without worrying about a thing. The food deserves its own standing ovation. Our guests are still talking about it weeks later. From the incredible cocktail hour to the perfectly prepared dinner and desserts, everything was restaurant-quality and beautifully presented. It was far beyond what anyone expects from a wedding venue. Everywhere we looked there were unforgettable photo opportunities, and the atmosphere was simply magical. It felt like we were celebrating in our own private castle. We’ve attended many weddings over the years, and our guests repeatedly told us this was one of the most beautiful—and one of the most enjoyable—they’ve ever experienced. That says everything. To everyone at Skylands Manor and Frungillo Caterers: thank you for creating memories we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives. You didn’t just host our wedding—you created an experience that exceeded every expectation. We would choose Skylands Manor again a thousand times over and recommend it without hesitation to any couple looking for a truly unforgettable wedding venue.”

“We had our wedding at The Briarcliff Manor and overall had a wonderful experience. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, and people are still talking about our wedding and how stunning everything was. The food, drinks, and service were fantastic, and we received countless compliments from our guests throughout the night. Unfortunately, we were so busy taking photos that we barely got to experience cocktail hour ourselves, but our guests were amazed by it and could not stop raving about the food. Throughout the planning process, communication was always helpful and responsive, which made planning much easier. The only surprise for us was learning on the wedding day that the person we had worked with throughout our planning journey would not be there. Since we had spent so much time working together and discussing the details of our wedding, we naturally expected them to be part of the day. A heads-up beforehand would have helped us feel more prepared for that transition. That said, the wedding-day staff were absolutely wonderful. Our bridal attendants were attentive, kind, and helped us feel calm and confident throughout the day. They were always one step ahead and somehow always appeared exactly when we needed something. In fact, they always had a drink ready for us—we don’t think we approached the bar once all night! Their care and attention allowed us to fully enjoy every moment of our wedding. What stood out most was how genuinely excited the staff seemed for us. Everyone was incredibly warm, welcoming, and friendly, and it felt like they were celebrating right alongside our guests. If you’re considering The Briarcliff Manor, you can expect a gorgeous venue, excellent food and drinks, and a team that truly cares about creating a memorable experience. We are grateful for the memories we made there and would absolutely recommend it to other couples.”

“As a wedding planner and designer based in NYC for over a decade, I’ve seen a lot of venues—and this one is truly special. The barn strikes that rare balance between thoughtful design and genuine warmth. It has a refined, NYC-designer sensibility—elevated, intentional, never kitschy—while still feeling relaxed, cozy, and grounded in that unmistakable Hudson Valley charm. The space itself feels like a home rather than a rental: intimate, eclectic, and quietly magical. It creates an atmosphere that immediately puts people at ease and makes celebrations feel meaningful and personal. What truly sets this venue apart is that it’s family-owned and operated, and you feel that care in every interaction. The owners are communicative, accommodating, and consistently go above and beyond to support couples and vendors alike. From a professional standpoint, that level of partnership is invaluable. On top of all of this, the venue is refreshingly budget-friendly for the experience it offers—something that’s increasingly rare. It’s a true hidden gem, and couples who find it are incredibly lucky.

“Florentine Gardens was a dream to work with our through wedding planning journey. It honestly was the most stress free wedding planning process and our wedding day was so magical and perfect. We felt like royalty and our attendants made sure to go above and beyond for us. People can’t stop talking about our wedding and we want nothing more than to attend Florentine as guests to experience it again. We loved every single minute at Florentine and couldn’t have imagined our wedding being anywhere else.”

“There truly are not enough words to describe the level of service we received at The Legacy Castle for our wedding. From beginning to end, the entire experience was beyond exceptional. Our Lead Banquet Services Coordinator, Camry, was absolutely incredible. From our very first meetings through the wedding day, she handled everything with such professionalism, patience, and attention to detail. She kept up with our incredibly busy schedule, was always accommodating and understanding, and remained flexible even with our last-minute changes. She put everything together so seamlessly that we were able to simply enjoy our wedding without worrying about a single detail. From the moment I arrived at the Castle, I was greeted by our wonderful maître d’ and immediately felt completely taken care of. I was also welcomed by two beautiful young ladies, Nicole and Adriana, who were personally by my side from the second I stepped out of the car and throughout the entire day. I genuinely cannot put into words how incredible they were. They helped clean and bustle my dress, kept my lipstick in their pockets and made sure it was reapplied throughout the night, made sure I was always fed and hydrated, and constantly checked that I had absolutely everything I needed. They anticipated my needs before I even had to ask. I never once had to worry about anything — they were always one step ahead of me. I truly felt like a princess that entire day. The amount of care and attention they gave me allowed me to be completely present and enjoy every second of my wedding. And the food was absolutely phenomenal. Our guests still cannot stop talking about it! Before the wedding, one of our concerns was whether there would be enough food for everyone, but looking back, we laugh because we simply did not realize the level at which The Legacy Castle operates. The amount, variety, presentation, and quality of the food completely exceeded anything we could have imagined. We added the sushi boats, which were a HUGE success with our guests and absolutely worth it. And then came the Viennese display — it honestly felt like walking into Willy Wonka’s chocolate room. Everywhere you looked there was something beautiful and delicious. It was over-the-top in the absolute best way and such an unforgettable way to end the night. The level of care was unlike anything I have ever experienced. It wasn’t simply good service — it felt personal. Every member of the staff made us feel as though our wedding was the most important event in the world to them that day. Even our vendors could not stop talking about how impressed they were by the professionalism, organization, and service of The Legacy Castle team. That alone says so much. I am still in awe of how beautifully and seamlessly everything came together. I truly don’t think I have ever experienced this level of service anywhere in my life. It was worth every single penny we spent. Being able to enjoy our wedding day knowing that we, our families, our guests, and even our vendors were being taken care of at such an extraordinary level was priceless. To Camry, our wonderful maître d’, Nicole, Adriana, and every single member of The Legacy Castle staff: thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You made one of the most important days of our lives absolutely unforgettable. We will forever be grateful.”

“I can't begin to describe the amazing wedding celebration we had at The Terrace at Biagio's. We had our ceremony at the venue as well and everything went perfect! Barbara and John were top tier! Communicating with me from the moment we met until the wedding, answering all my questions at all hours and making our vision come to life! They were on top of everything from start to finish, and we were constantly taken care of us. Not only did they excel but they did it all with great personality and love! The Terrace itself was a gem! Our guests raved about the cocktail hour! It was an assortment of the best food possible, all so fresh and impossible to not go back for more. Bar service was top notch and our signature drinks were a hit! (Barbra actually was the one who made that vision come alive! Lavender martini and bacon maple ole fashioned). The dessert hour was a fire show! (Literally a fire show) And there was every dessert possible! Carnival, ice creams, cakes, cookies, chocolate fondue, etc! We had our first look down the road at another location but we took photos on site in the front of the entrance to the terrace and they came out beautiful! It's a smaller area but it has beautiful flowers and a stream. The ceremony was on the roof top and it was beautiful with the waterfall fountain and stone fire place! Lots of cute places to take some very nice photos! Along with the string lights and arch, it was a dream. I can't rave enough about how much Biagios made our day so enjoyable, and beautiful. I would recommend them over and over again thank you again to the hardworking staff, Barbara, John and Tommy. It is a night we will cherish forever. Oh, and they allow dogs to be in the ceremony It was everything to be able to have our fur baby share our special day with us.”
