Beautiful Setting with Top-Notch Service
From the initial planning to the actual wedding event, everything went great! Communication was timely, helpful and accurate. Guests were truly impressed with the beautiful environment, the food and the top-notch service. Highly recommend!!
Monte Bello is the perfect venue!!
My husband and I got married at The Monte Bello Estate in June and we really can’t express how head over heels we are with this venue. From the moment we stepped onto the property, there was this magical feeling and we all looked at each other like “this is it”. It’s so perfectly whimsical and just breathtakingly beautiful. Like seriously, I still have guests months later gushing about how they felt like they had walked into a fairytale wedding. The grounds and landscapes are perfectly manicured and the inside is no different as far as attention to detail and stunning design. Aside from its beauty, the service and team at Monte Bello is truly outstanding. They made the already stressful planning SO easy and helped us every. step. of. the. way. Huge shoutout to Abbey (Director of Sales & Events) who answered our every question, whether big or small, with such care and detail. If you are someone who appreciates fast replies and to feel like you were heard, you will love the team at Monte Bello. It can be nerve-wrecking knowing there are many moving parts to such a big event, but seeing how it came together that day, largely due to Monte Bello’s attention to detail, was so satisfying and emotional in the best way possible. We loved even how beautiful and unique the food tasting event was (they had a harpist there who we ended up hiring for our wedding!). We weren’t able to attend their Raise the Bar event for engaged couples getting married at Monte Bello but they graciously allowed a couple of our family members to attend in our absence and help us decide on cocktail selections. Another very important thing: the FOOD was amazing! From the hors d’oeuvres to the main entree and sides, everything was delicious. This is another thing our guests still bring up and appreciated. We especially loved our mini grilled cheese shooters with tomato soup :) Before you make your grand entrance as a married couple, they give you and your partner a moment alone together and bring you a plate of hors d’oeuvres that you may have missed during cocktail hour which was such a sweet detail. They also work so well with your vendors and communicate with them as needed. Speaking of vendors, Monte Bello provided a list of recommended vendors, and I was blown away by how amazing they were. It felt like they were an extension of the venue itself—professional, kind, and truly wonderful to work with. It’s obvious they choose their partners with great care and attention to detail. All in all, I truly can’t say enough wonderful things about Monte Bello and their team. If you are considering them as a venue, I promise you they will not disappoint. Thank you Monte Bello for the most beautiful day of our lives!!!
June 28, 2025 Couple
We were lucky enough to celebrate our June 2025 wedding at The Monte Bello Estate. I first saw the venue on Instagram well before we were engaged and stored it in my memory for when that day finally came. Within a few days of the proposal, we had reached out and scheduled a meeting at the Estate with Lauren. We toured the following weekend and booked that same day without seeing any other venue which we never had any qualms about! The worst part about the Monte Bello (and I mean this SO lightly) is the high-demand and the long wait for a Saturday in the summer. However, the wait was incredibly beyond worth it!! The venue staff could not be any more amazing. While I primarily worked with Lauren, every single person we worked with at the Monte Bello from event coordinators, bar/catering staff, etc were so kind and helpful. Lauren deserves her own shout out, though! Any time something went slightly wrong with a vendor or the schedule, Lauren was always there to offer a listening ear and fix anything within her power. I didn’t worry about a single thing on my wedding day because I trusted her so much! On top of that, she felt like a friend and my whole family bonded with her. She is the absolute best, and words don’t properly describe how wonderful it was to work with her!! In addition, the grounds are stunning and photograph beautifully, the food was great, the service was perfect, and the list goes on. We couldn’t ask for a better place to gather our loved ones! Both my husband and I (plus our families) received so many compliments on things solely attributed to The Monte Bello, and we are so grateful that we were able to celebrate our love story there. I cannot recommend it enough!! Thank you Monte Bello for a beautiful day we will remember (and wish we could go back to) forever!! You were above and beyond our expectations!
The Monte Bello is MAGICAL
Where do I even begin with Monte Bello? It truly was the perfect venue for our wedding. The grounds were stunning, the food was delicious, and the staff was incredible in every possible way. From start to finish, we felt completely cared for, especially on our big day. Abbey, you were such a pivotal part of our experience, and our wedding wouldn't have been the same without you. Choosing Monte Bello was the best decision we made, and we can't recommend it enough for your special day!
