Rachael and her team were absolutely amazing for our wedding whenever I had a question about the venue I knew I would get a very quick response from Rachael days leading up to the wedding. We kept our eye out on the forecast, hoping to have the ceremony outside in the garden however, with the rain we had to have it inside, but it was still absolutely perfect, they were able to get it, so that way you didn’t see everything underneath the tent during the ceremony and most of the time you didn’t even know they were there.

I recently had my wedding at the Madison Hotel. I can say that my wedding was the wedding I always dreamed of. From beginning to end, the staff was very professional, especially my Maitre'd Joe Zimmerman and his assistant Jose. From the day of the rehearsal till the next day of the wedding they were fantastic. We held our rehearsal dinner at Rods and the food was phenomenal. The day of the wedding, the ceremony was held in the dreamy conservatory and the reception was in the grand ballroom. The transition went seamlessly. They worked very well with all my vendors, DJ, photographer, and string quartet. I had a decorator that they let her come in to stage early and when the conservatory and ballroom were available, they let her right in. They also provided us with a bridal suite for us the get ready in the day of. The whole staff was very attentive and courteous. The food was absolutely amazing at cocktail hour and the reception, we had no complaints! Two bars with top shelf liquor was available the whole night. At the end of the night we had a sparkler sendoff, the staff knew exactly what to do and it all worked out perfectly. We stood at the hotel both nights. The night of the rehearsal we had separate king size bedrooms and the wedding night they provide us with a complimentary honeymoon suite, which was amazing. I highly recommend the Madison Hotel.

It's taken me a couple months to write this review since getting married at Park Loft in May because I just haven't felt I had the words to adequately express how perfect this venue and their entire team was. Our wedding day exceeded even our own expectations and was absolutely flawless. I expected a little hiccup somewhere along the way, but there were none. The entire team we worked with were true professionals and had the whole process down to a tee. Our director, Allie, was beyond organized and accommodating, helping us throughout the entire planning process. Chef Thomas is incredible and so invested in ensuring all the food was delicious. Everyone who attended went out of their way to tell us it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding. If you are considering booking with Park Loft, all I can say is DO IT!! You will not regret it and you and all your guests will be blown away by the all around perfection of Park Loft.

We got married at The Mansion on Aug 10th and there are insufficient characters in this review box to capture our gratitude for what an impeccable place this was to get married. We initially chose the venue for ease of the location (we live a few blocks away). I hoped the food would be good, since we couldn't do a tasting, and just trusted it would all work out. THESE PEOPLE BLEW ME AWAY. The staff is awesome, from the Matre D, to the Bridal Attendant, to all the ways Jim and Nancy helped us tend to ever detail of the event, it was the most perfect day. The food was so delicious. Our guests are still talking to us about it weeks later. The cocktail hour was incredible. The main course was the best piece of meat I've ever had in my life. Everything was so fresh, and so delicious. My only regret of my wedding was that I didn't eat more than just a few bites of everything. I woke up the next morning craving the rest of my filet mignon, lol. We went with the "minimum" of everything included because we were on a budget, but it was all so abundant, generous and tasty. Even the dessert platters that came with the meal were amazingly delicious. The space itself is luxurious and beautiful. We had the whole venue to ourselves and the whole thing was just magical.

From the start, their communication was prompt, friendly, and informative, which put us at ease throughout the planning process.

We really think the package is a great value for the money and would highly recommend others go that route to save both money and time in the planning process. On the day of, the venue's staff provided exceptional service, especially Anthony the maitre d', Cece the bridal attendant, and Maureen the coordinator. They were incredibly accommodating and helped ensure everything ran smoothly, from the beautiful beachfront ceremony to the delicious and plentiful dinner. We had approximately 165 people (16 tables) and fit very comfortably for dinner in the dining room. We were initially concerned about the size of the space but we easily could have fit several more tables in the dining room. We had the DJ and dancing under the large tent and there was plenty of space and the fans / sea breeze kept it perfectly cool. The overall vibe of the venue is understated and elegant. So many guests complimented the beauty of the venue. We offered to-go pizza at the end which was also a huge hit!

The Point at Norwalk Cove was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, the team was attentive, personal, and quick to respond to all of our questions. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful - with an outdoor, tented, beachfront space that was ideal for our summer celebration. The ceremony backdrop of the beach was breathtaking, and the hydrangeas were in full bloom around the property. We loved watching the boats out on the water as we danced the night away. The Point truly made our special day unforgettable!

I always love working with the crew at Sterling Ballroom at Double Tree. As a photographer, getting to see how the staff interacts with each other and vendors like me when the client isn’t looking speaks volumes about their management team and the overall vibe they bring to the table. You can tell they really care about the client’s experience and want to do their part to make everyone’s day special. That’s a rare quality.

Jenna and Alicia and our maitre’d Heather always had everything under control at all times from the booking up the night of the reception and made it seem effortless.

As a wedding officiant, I've had the pleasure of working with many venues, but The Olde Mille Inn truly stands out as an iconic, singular celebration site. From the moment you step into the inn itself or its historic restaurant, "The Grain House", (recently voted one of the most romantic restaurants in NJ!), you feel the warmth and hospitality they're famous for! There are so many pretty photo backdrops in every season! Having a beautiful, dog-friendly hotel on site so the wedding parties and family can gather and celebrate together is another amazing bonus that helps the day run seamlessly! Their people are just phenomenal, from their planning staff to the day-of coordination. They go above and beyond to ensure every detail is perfect, allowing couples to truly relax and enjoy their wedding celebration. Literally, nothing is left up to chance! For couples seeking a truly personalized ceremony and reception, I can't recommend the Olde Mill highly enough. They're incredibly accommodating and flexible, allowing you to create a day that reflects your unique love story. (And they have the best fried calamari in the state!) I'd encourage any couple searching for the perfect wedding setting to begin their search here. It may be the first and last place you tour!

Where do I even begin? We got married at the Grain House at the Olde Mill Inn on May 23, 2024, and it was nothing short of perfect. The entire wedding planning process was made easy thanks to everyone at the OldMill Inn and Grain House. They are very responsive, which is crucial when planning a wedding. My grandmother and grandfather had their wedding reception here back in 1957, so I knew I wanted to meet with them to discuss having my wedding there. It was the first and only venue we met with. After going on a tour and discussing the different packages with Lea, I was sold. They take care of your accommodations, catering, bar, cake, tables, chairs, etc. My wedding planning “to-do” list was cut in half! Everyone is so accommodating and they really work with you to make sure your day goes perfectly. So many guests told us how they never experienced wedding food to this level. Everything was DELICIOUS! Better yet, we actually got to eat as the bride and groom. The property itself is gorgeous. John was our Matre d’ and he was the best! He made sure we stayed on time, he ran food from the cocktail hour to me and my husband when we were taking photos, and he coordinated with our vendors so we didn’t have to worry. His efforts did not go unnoticed. Once again I had guests come up to me and tell me how amazing he is. I also had guests reach out after to tell me it was the best wedding they have ever been to. All of our vendors were fantastic but the Old Mill Inn and Grain House really did the bulk of the work to make it an unforgettable experience. The hotel itself was wonderful to stay in, everything was so clean and the breakfast was delicious. I wouldn’t change a thing about my wedding day, everything was perfect and I really have the Old Mill Inn and the Grain House to thank for that. I would recommend the Old Mill Inn and the GrainHouse to anyone planning a wedding. It really is the ONLY choice in my opinion. You will not be disappointed.
