The Claridge Hotel was the perfect venue to celebrate my wedding! The Claridge is elegant and full of charm. The staff at the Claridge went above and beyond! Jeff did a remarkable job!

Lance, the banquet manager, was phenomenal! He worked tirelessly the day of my wedding, ensuring that everything was in place and ran smoothly.

Last weekend I had the PERFECT wedding at Resorts! Nancy and her team made the planning process seamless. Nancy was always available to answer my questions through text, email, or phone call. The team helped me bring my vision of classic elegance to life. Our friends and family are still talking about how amazing the food was! Some even stating it was the best steak they have ever had! When we first toured Resorts, I knew we found our match, and I couldn't be happier with how our wedding weekend turned out.

When my husband and I were looking for wedding venues, we were very specify on what we wanted. We really wanted something outdoors for the ceremony and a beautiful reception hall that did not give off that "Ballroom" look. We hated chandeliers and let me tell you, it was difficult to find a venue in NJ without a chandelier. When we first toured Blue Heron Pines, we instantly fell in love. We immediately knew that this was the spot we wanted to get married in. It was exactly what we wanted but the only hesitation we had was that our family lived about an hour away from it. After going back an forth about it, we decided to book it and that was the best decision we have ever made. It turns out that the people that truly love you will make that trip for you because everyone on our guest list came to our wedding! All the employees at Blue Heron were extremely helpful and super nice. Sarah and Tara are amazing at keeping the bride calm throughout the whole process, from booking the venue, down to the day after the wedding. Our wedding day was perfect, thanks to Blue Heron Pines and their amazing staff. I HIGHLY recommend having your wedding at Blue Heron. They will definitely not disappoint!

We just got married at Turkey Trac on 11/12/22. We booked in May 2022 as they had an opening due to a cancellation. With a short timeframe i was a little nervous about being able to pull it off. Miranda was absolutely incredible. I seriously cannot speak more highly of her. She was so cool and down to earth, super easy to work with, helped provide suggestions when I needed recommendations for other vendors etc. The day could not have went any smoother. We had one little hiccup with my caterer that was missing some of our cocktail hour food and Miranda was on it and had it solved extremely quickly. It was incredible! She checked in periodically on us all night. Helped make sure we kept on time and was just an overall amazing owner/ day of coordinator as well. The venue is absolutely stunning! Pictures there are gorgeous but i feel like they don’t do it justice. It’s just breathtaking. We received so many compliments on how beautiful it was. Everything flowed so nicely too with the ceremony space, cocktail hour space and the barn reception space. They have heaters and roll down sides which made the brisk evening still perfect for those that were chilly. The bridal suite is incredible, comfortable and made for wonderful pictures for both my first look with my father and with my husband with his mother. So many amazing photo spots! The silo, the faux fireplace, the old truck out front, the field - just amazing! The Turkey Trac crew was so great helping coordinate with everyone for parking, had little bathroom emergency kits already set up, and their clean up was awesome. All we had to do was pop by the next day to grab our decorations which they neatly set aside for us all in one spot. She has decor that you can rent for amazing prices which save you so much money and space so you don’t have to lug it around. Miranda got an amazing video of my dad and i from behind walking down the isle and that is something i didn’t even think of, but will cherish forever. If i did the whole day over again i wouldn’t change a thing. I couldn’t speak more highly of Turkey Trac. I would recommend it to everyone! I hope to rent the space out in the future for other events like maybe baby shower down the line! Thank you Turkey Trac for such an incredible day! You made all our dreams come true!

My husband and I could not have had a better experience with a wedding venue. We were treated impeccably from our initial phone call, to our scheduled tour, communication leading up to the big day, and finally the wedding itself. Running Deer is truly a well-oiled machine and dependable in the way they run events. Everything was clearly communicated as far as wedding options and costs, with no hidden fees or marketing agendas. We can't thank Heather D., our day of coordinator, enough for the thoughtful and attentive service she provided to not only to my husband and I, but also to our parents. We felt taken care of the entire wedding day and never had to lift a finger to get our needs met. All of the staff leading up to and on the wedding day were professional and helpful, always open to answering questions and making us feel comfortable. Kate and Jessica were especially helpful in the planning process. We heard nothing but rave reviews from our wedding guests on how lovely the event was and how much fun they had on our wedding day. We attribute much of the success of our special day to how well Running Deer ran everything. If the service wasn't enough of a reason to book with them, it really helps how beautiful the venue itself is, with three different options of on site ceremony locations and a flexible, full proof rain plan. We were even allowed to use the grounds we did not choose for our ceremony for wedding photos, as there were no other weddings occurring on our day. On top of everything the food was so delicious, which is not something that is always guaranteed with weddings. We wouldn't change a thing from our wedding day experience with Running Deer.

We cannot begin to express how incredible our wedding day was at The Grove at Centerton. From the very beginning of the planning process to the final dance, everything was flawless. The venue itself is absolutely stunning – it provided the perfect backdrop for our ceremony and reception. The team went above and beyond to make sure everything was exactly how we imagined it. They were incredibly organized, responsive, and so easy to work with. Our wedding coordinator, Jess, was amazing. She guided us every step of the way, ensuring everything went smoothly, and even took care of details we hadn’t thought of! On our big day, the staff was professional, friendly, and attentive, making sure our guests were well taken care of, and the entire event ran seamlessly. The food was another highlight – our guests are still talking about how amazing both the cocktail food and entrees were! And the cake and late-night pretzel station...WOW. The whole dining experience was impeccable. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day. Everything was beyond our expectations, and we are so grateful to The Grove at Centerton for making our dream wedding come to life.

Awarded Best of Zola
When my fiancé and I were trying to decide which venue style we wanted to do go with, all we knew is that we didn’t want the typical Jersey ballroom. We wanted something that was going to make a statement and was elevated, yet had a relaxed. We decided that a rustic barn was just our style. Bishop Farmstead was just that. The beautiful chandelier, wooden tables and scenic gardens were everything we were looking for. As we discussed pricing and packages, everything was reasonable and you get a great bang for your buck. The event staff have been so amazing and great with communication. We get married in 2 months and I’m so excited to see all of our hard work come together.

If you’re thinking about booking The Atlantis Ballroom as your venue, DO IT!!!! I literally cannot recommend them enough. LONG story short, we were two days away from our wedding and got a call our venue could no longer accommodate us. Realizing we had no time to panic and had to figure something out, my (now) husband suggested that we check out the Atlantis Ballroom because he’s been to several events there and they had always been nice. Not only were they able to make an entire wedding happen in just TWO DAYS notice, but they went above and beyond! Everyone we dealt with was so friendly. The food was AMAZING. Our cake was so cute! Literally everything was better than perfection. They had a huge supply of decorations/colors/etc. that we were able to pick for them to use to decorate the ballroom and for the cocktail hour. They also used some of our own stuff at our request since I already worked so hard on it. They were able to accommodate every single person who had a dietary restriction (keto, GF, allergies). We got married 3 months ago and every time I see anyone that was at our wedding, they rave about how it was the best and most fun wedding they ever went to! We wouldn’t have been able to do it without Jen and everyone else at The Atlantis Ballroom. There’s no way you’ll be disappointed in your choice by going with The Atlantis Ballroom for any of your events! I know I’ll definitely host any of my events there and I recommend to everyone I know. Thank you again for making our wedding the most magical day

Since Willow Creek opened in 2013, I've always said this would be the most beautiful venue for a wedding. 6.3.23 I had my wedding at Willow Creek and it was more perfect then I could have imagined it all those years. The venue is obviously stunning, getting the entire grounds on the whole day to take pictures gave us time to take the most amazing pictures. From the beautiful vineyards, to the owners love for colorful landscaping, wood beams, leather couches, imported chandeliers, and pops of color throughout, this venue offers picture perfect scenery no matter where you are on the property. It is also a short drive to the beach, where we had our first looks and then had the rest of our pictures at the winery. We rented their Rose Room for an hour or two which was a great spot for the wedding party to hang and everyone to freshen up before the ceremony. We had our ceremony at the wine tasting building, which definitely makes you timeline a lot tighter, but Willow Creek has preferred vendors that are experts in working with the wineries timelines and will make sure that everything is ready to go by your start time. Hamilton is absolutely amazing. She is a quick responder to all questions and is so pleasant to work with. She made the stressful process of wedding planning a lot easier. Our guest raved about the food (the beef wellington hors d'oeuvre was a crowd favorite). And the party favors that come with your package are little wine bottles, which of course, none were left behind. Bonus: it's pet friendly through cocktail hour so we had our pup in the wedding! Willow Creek is a dream wedding venue and you wont be disappointed working with them for your big day.

I'm going to start by saying we are floral designers who have been in the industry for 13 years combined. We have worked alongside some of the best industry professionals in the area and Avery and the Johnson's Locust Hall Team are by far the best! Our wedding was perfect. But more importantly, the attention and care leading up to the day from Avery is what truly made the experience special and quite frankly emotional. We just went back to the venue to pick pumpkins and are still reveling in the emotions of the day. Such a sweet family and location. Our guests had such a wonderful time each space we entered. I could go on and on about how perfect every detail was but instead i'll just say book this venue for your wedding or event, you will have such heart filled memories the rest of your life.

My partner and I were recently married end of 2023 at The Madison and it was everything we hoped our wedding day would be and more! Everything was truly perfect-- from the stunning venue, rock-star wedding coordinator, 5-Star dining and phenomenal staff. There is a saying that goes “people may not remember what you said, but they will always remember how you made them feel”. I suppose that is a perfect place to start. From the moment we stepped into the The Madison for our initial tour, wedding coordinator Thomas made us not only feel completely comfortable but also that he was just as excited as we were to plan our wedding. His energy and passion made us confident that we not only had found the venue we desired, but the staff as well. Through months of planning he was 100% on top of every detail. There was no stone left unturned as he helped guide us to creating the wedding of our dreams. On the actual wedding day, Thomas and the staff at The Madison collaborated so seamlessly with all of our vendors. Everyone was completely in tune with our vision and made sure the execution was perfect. Our bartenders and the wait staff were 100% on point the entire night and all of our guests complimented how well the service and food was! As for the atmosphere of the venue itself – absolutely stunning! We were married outdoor by the fireplace shortly after sunset. Words cannot give justice to how breathtaking this backdrop was and it was the most romantic setting to exchange our vows. We would strongly recommend reviewing some of the pictures on their Instagram account so you can see how truly beautiful this space is. We were concerned about the cold since we did get married in the heart of winter, but there were ample heaters aligned around the seats so our guests remained comfortable and the fireplace by our side kept us warm through the entire ceremony. We cannot thank The Madison enough for making sure our wedding day was perfect!

Royal Boucherie, Old City’s lively neighborhood bistro, is Philadelphia’s award-winning, hidden gem of a venue. The noted three-bell restaurant from Philadelphia Inquirer’s Craig LaBan boasts a rooftop garden fit for a dreamy ceremony, a second-floor dining space utilized for the reception, curated French-forward food and beverage packages, and much more. The restaurant, located in the heart of Philadelphia’s historic Old City district, serves a French-inspired menu with a focus on house-made charcuterie, raw bar specialties, and classic cocktails. We worked diligently to preserve and enhance the building’s historical charm and integrity. The bi-level space features restored finishes such as original pine flooring dating back to the 1830s, as well as tin ceilings, antique light fixtures, and exposed brick walls.

FringeArts 

5.0

Philadelphia, PA
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $19,500

FringeArts is a unique venue in Old City with two versatile spaces that can be rented separately or together, based on the couple’s vision. Most often the spaces are rented together. Our restaurant can seat 80 or host a standing cocktail reception for 150. FringeArts can accommodate up to 200 guests for a seated dinner in their space. The two spaces are separated by a moveable air wall. We can host a ceremony and cocktail hour in the restaurant and in Haas Biergarten right outside, and then open the wall to reveal a dining room space in the FringeArts theater. After dinner, head back out to the main bar and hit up the dance floor, or head outside to Haas Biergarten. Outside we have a bar that is operational May-October, lawn games, fire pits, and a great view of the Ben Franklin Bridge!

La Peg/FringeArts is a fantastic wedding venue to work with. Their communication is always clear, quick, and compassionate, making the planning process seamless and thorough. The industrial, unique space is truly one-of-a-kind, with an artistic flair and delicious food that has wowed our clients and their guests. I highly recommend FringeArts to any couples looking for a wedding that focuses on delicious food, smart cocktails, and that true "Philly" vibe.
