Bello Giorno Estate is a modern interpretation of a romantic Italian villa in Tuscany. The grounds were inspired by and seek to emulate the villas of Tuscany's countryside. Situated alongside the scenic and historic Pequest river in Belvidere New Jersey, our Estate personifies an intimate natural elegance. Our grounds are carefully curated with a grand entrance gate, flowing gardens, and seasonal designs that provide the perfect accompaniment to our three outdoor ceremony spaces. Bello Giorno Estate also offers a separate 'Grooms Room' and Bridal Cottage for the wedding couple. Both spaces serve as the perfect place for your groomsmen and bridesmaids to privately enjoy pre-ceremony drinks and appetizers. Our riverside rock walls complement the outdoors and provide a place to sit quietly with your loved one and enjoy a specialty cocktail as you watch the river flow and native fauna pass by.

Bell Gate Farm is the perfect backdrop for any kind of event. I have one rule, however, there will never be more than one event per day. I firmly believe that you cannot concentrate and give supreme customer service when there are multiple activities going on the same day. When you rent Bell Gate, you are getting every nook and cranny, and that allows us to play a little bit. We can have a cocktail hour at the pool, but move dinner to the barn, and it feels like you’ve changed venue’s completely. It’s one of our greatest assets to be able to give our clients a robust and fulfilling event experience.

From picking the dress and choosing the décor, to sending invitations and scheduling photography time, we forget about the two little words that really matter …”the venue”. At Bear Creek, the only two words you need to remember are “I do”; the rest is in our hands. This unique wedding venue offers everything you need for your wedding including your choice between three reception rooms & ceremony sites, on-site hotel and spa, two full-service restaurants, as well as outdoor and indoor pools and hot tubs. With over a decade of hosting weddings on 330 acres of scenic property, Bear Creek provides precise planning services and exceptional event execution with stunning views overlooking the mountain.
