Delicious food and beautiful space
From the moment we started working with their team, the communication was easy and they were incredibly organized in helping us plan our rehearsal dinner and post-wedding brunch. The food at both events was absolutely delicious - our guests were shocked at how great it tasted! The historic space was beautiful and provided a wonderful backdrop for our celebrations, especially with the bridal suite being the Norman Rockwell Suite. The Nassau Inn was a great value and really helped make this busy weekend run smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a better venue and highly recommend them to any couple getting married in Princeton.
Dream Wedding at the Nassau Inn
The Nassau Inn in Princeton, NJ was the perfect venue for our wedding day. From the moment we started working with Amanda, the venue coordinator, we knew we were in good hands. She was extremely communicative, on top of things, and helpful throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself is beautiful, with an old-fashioned, cozy, and warm atmosphere that made our wedding feel like a dream. The fact that it is located so close to Princeton University was a bonus, as we were able to take stunning photos on the campus grounds. The food packages are great and offer a ton of food options. Our gorgeous cake was included in the package. Amanda and the entire Nassau Inn team ensured our day ran smoothly, even when we had to quickly move our ceremony indoors due to bad weather. They were kind, accommodating, and helped make our wedding day truly special. If you want a beautiful wedding, without any of the stress- book the Nassau Inn!
Great Venue
Nassau Inn was a pleasure to work with, and it made our lives SO much easier in the planning process. They took care of so many small details and were open for any questions we had prior to the wedding. On the day of, everything ran so smoothly and they are truly a well-oiled machine. Yes, the prices are a little high, but I really felt like we got our money’s worth. Plus, if you choose to get married in a Friday instead of a Saturday, you get a pretty decent discount!
The best decision we made!
We booked the Nassau Inn because it was located in Princeton (a family friendly and walkable town in NJ) and offered great packages. We quickly learned that everyone was so kind, helpful, and easy to reach. Jaime and Roger truly guided us through planning our big day. Each decision felt so easy and we trusted them 100%! The food was amazing and beyond our expectations. The bartenders were friendly. Our guests had made so many positive comments! Also, having the cake included was a huge time saver for us, and we enjoyed working with a local bakery who were very accommodating. Choosing the Nassau Inn for our wedding venue was the best decision we made!
