Tricia and Marty were the absolute best to work with! They were so responsive, helpful, flexible and helped us with what we envisioned our wedding day to look like! Their venue is absolutely stunning and it added to the complete vibe of our day. Tricia and Marty run such an organized schedule that even with our nerves we felt at ease for knowing exactly what was coming next! Alex and I have heard from our guests and they all have been raving about our wedding and said that it was one of the best they have attended. The food was delicious, the bonfire was a perfect touch and the s’mores with Reese’s cups were perfection! I’m so glad we found them and chose to have our wedding day there! The memories we have will last a lifetime and the way they made us feel will be remembered as well!

Kelly, a luxurious spa, an outdoor pool, and over 65 acres to explore. The chapel offers a unique venue for important occasions, and a peaceful English garden provides s gorgeous background for photos. Lovingly restored and meticulously designed, our hotel pays homage to its historic heritage while offering contemporary amenities and world-class service to each and every guest. All of us at The Abbey Inn and Spa are thrilled to be part of this exciting transformation, and we’re eager to share it with you.

I was one of few original wedding photographers to capture Abbey Inn's grand opening commercial photo shoot. I was extremely impressed by not only the polite construction and staff at the facility, but also how they had EVERYTHING figured out for large scale weddings and events to take place at their location. They have stunning-luxury hotel rooms & suites, a restaurant, bar and lounge space, gorgeous views of the Hudson valley, a cathedral -aesthetic ceremony and reception hall, lush gardens and lawns, plenty of parking, JUST A PERFECT SPOT for weddings and events so travel isn't an issue. ONE STOP SHOP :D I highly recommend this wedding venue!

We create your Affordable Dream Wedding! At the Art Factory our creative team provides Stunning ceremony, cocktail and reception venues, bridal and groom suites, planning, tables, chairs, lighting, all decor and props (except fresh flowers), setup, cleanup, day-of coordinator and so much more. There are no taxes or extra fees! You choose your favorite caterer, photographer and DJ/band - all for which we have great and affordable options or you can bring any vendors you wish. We create your wedding like we build our movie sets! Everything is customized for each couple, and we do it all - you’re not taking on a project! Photos don’t do this venue justice - you must visit to feel the vibe! The Art Factory is conveniently located only 12 miles from New York City on Interstate 80 and attached to the Paterson Great Falls National Park.

When trying to decide on a wedding and reception venue, we had made 4-5 appointments one Saturday back in 2022. Our first visit was to The Art Factory. David walked us through this beautiful, historic venue and spotlighted the large inside spaces (lots of options) for the ceremony and then the cocktails and another for the reception, the bridal suite, the groom's suite, the outdoor space, complete with fire pits and corn hole, and lots of movie props and decorations. We were sold from the very first moment that we stepped into the venue and even more sold on David and his wonderful personality and grasp of our vision for the wedding and reception. We did NOT make any of the other venue visits, we were completely sold on The Art Factory. Throughout the entire year of planning and preparations, David treated us like family and was very attentive to our every request and need. He and his wife Donata made planning the event effortless and fun. On the weeks and days leading up to the wedding and reception, Donata and her planning team would check in to make sure we had everything we needed and to make suggestions if we were needing help with anything at all. The day of the wedding and reception could not have been more perfect. The entire staff made sure we had anything and everything while we were all getting dressed, even had football on for the guys getting ready in the grooms suite. Needless to say it was a magical day, everything that we could have imagined and more!!! The decor, the food, the bar, the service, the lighting.... everything was spot on. I highly recommend The Art Factory. We have made very special new friends and they really "loved" us like family!!

Crystal Plaza 

5.0

Livingston, NJ
  • Up to 350 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $40,000

Before it became our beloved event venue, the historic Crystal Plaza was originally a residential mansion. The initial Livingston, New Jersey-based residence was built in the late 1800s by famed architect Stanford White, who was responsible for designing the Tiffany building on Fifth Avenue, the original Madison Square Garden complex among other landmark structures. While the restored building has since been reincarnated as one of the leading wedding and event spaces in the tri-state area, it still maintains the feeling of its 19th century grandeur. Our impeccable, white-glove service begins the moment you arrive. Crystal Plaza hosts only one event at a time, ensuring that our dedicated team focuses singularly on you and your every need. From the elegant Grand Ballroom boasting numerous chandeliers (how the Crystal Plaza name came to be) to the lush gardens that change beautifully with the seasons, there are myriad backdrops to complement your wedding, social affair or corporate event.

We had an amazing wedding at the Crystal Plaza! They did absolutely everything to make sure the day went smoothly. They were professional, organized, and very accommodating to every request. We had the ceremony set up outside, and when it started to rain they quickly started to set up inside. Then when the rain passed, they reset up everything outside! The venue was beautiful, the gardens were lovely, and the rooms to get ready in very pretty and spacious. All of the attendants were very friendly and helpful, constantly checking in with us to make sure we were all set. Special shout out the Mikheil for coordinating everything!

Waterloo is open to the public as part of Allamuchy Mountain State Park and home to many events and educational programs to teach and inform visitors about the past. When you choose Waterloo Village as the setting for your event, a portion of proceeds will go towards the preservation and restoration of the site.

We were delighted that one of the best days of our lives was held at this gorgeous location! We only wished the celebration lasted longer. It rained but they made the adjustments for an indoor ceremony and it was still wonderful despite the last minute change. Also, the after-party is a must! It got rave reviews from our guests.

I cannot say enough to praise Kerri and Frank for their beautiful space, their attention to detail, their immense care and love for the work that they do and for every single person who enters their space. Kerri's precision and focus is unmatched and you truly feel like the only person in the room when you speak to her. Every single question went answered and each detail attended to with precision. The food here is immaculate and even a month later people continue to ask me to ask Chef Charlie for his recipes. The words "hidden gem" have never meant more than for this venue. I cannot recommend this enough and will forever be shouting from the rooftops that Kerri is a true dream maker. If you tell her exactly what you want, she will make it happen. It will still take work on your end but it will all be worth it. If you meet the deadlines she sets, you will have a smooth and seamless planning process.

  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

Nanina’s In the Park is a New Jersey Landmark nestled in the cherry blossoms. You are invited to view the beautiful picturesque setting within a historical park which creates a picture perfect ambiance for both intimate weddings to large corporate events. Nanina’s in the Park has been hosting weddings for over 65 years and provides an experience that is second to none. The lavishly manicured grounds and traditional architecture provide the perfect scenery for an outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour. Our famous cherry gardens and Tuscan style villa will create the perfect backdrop which you must see-to-believe, and together with our exceptional cuisine and service will make your event unforgettable.

If you want to plan a wedding that no one will ever forget - call Nanina's in the Park.  I had been to a wedding there as a guest years ago and remember being impressed, but being a Nanina's couple takes the WOW factor to a whole new level.  The menu is absolutely divine, but they knock it out of the park with their customer service.  Wedding planning was a breeze with their team, and the day of was truly magical.  Sally, Deandra and Jason did not miss a single thing - they treated me & my husband like gold and made sure things were taken care of so seamlessly.  We had a Friday wedding, so we were offered the bridal suite from 7AM onward--with breakfast & lunch provided, which alleviated the question of where to get ready & when/what to eat.  We arrived at 7:30 AM and Sally was waiting with open arms (literally) to carry in all our bags, boxes, etc.  She made sure we had everything we needed, kept us on schedule and even fixed our centerpieces when they arrived a bit out of sorts.  Deandra took over for her when we returned from the ceremony, and she was just as delightful- anytime we needed something, she was immediately on it.  And then there's our maitre'd Jason--words cannot express our gratitude for him.  I don't know how someone can be so on top of every detail during such a busy evening, and still appear as calm & warm as humanly possible.  At one point during the reception, my husband wasn't feeling well and before I could say anything, Jason whisked us into our bridal suite and had warm tea & ginger ale for us within 60 seconds.  It wasn't one of the more glamorous parts of the evening, but it was a true example of their phenomenal customer service.  The team didn't just treat us like customers, they treated us like family.  They had our signature drinks at the ready at all times and consistently made sure we were okay without being overbearing.  A million thank you's to this incredible team for making our day so special.  Now that I've raved about the staff, let me rave about the FOOD!  Exceptional is an understatement--it's been a month and people are still telling me they're still full from our wedding.  Guests raved so much about the cocktail hour, someone even said they could die content if that was their last supper.  We did a buffet-style reception, and everyone was just as thrilled with all the stations provided.  Going into wedding planning one of my priorities was the dessert, and the Viennese display did NOT disappoint.  They had everything--my biggest regret was not getting to try it all!  Aside from the incredible food, the venue itself is just stunning.  We knew we wanted a Christmas wedding, and in our first meeting when Dominic said "no one does Christmas like us," he wasn't kidding.  The decor was simple but elegant, and many guests thanked us for their next year's Christmas card photo!  All in all, it was a perfect day at the perfect venue.  We both come from two big Italian families, and so far no one has had a negative word to say--and that's saying a lot!  If you are looking to book your dream venue, you've come to the right place.

We got married at "A Private Estate" in October of 2018. We visited the year before, and it was one of the few (and the last) places we looked at. I loved it from the start. The grounds were beautiful, but more importantly, the people were great. I felt like we were dealing with real people who were doing what they do out of both love and pride. They showed us all the options, allowed us plenty of space to decide, and overall gave off good vibes. Our intuition told us this was it, and a year later we were so grateful we listened. After a year of planning an outdoor wedding we found out there would be a nor'easter... in October... with high winds and hail... the day of the wedding (thirty-seven degrees!) When we arrived, on Thursday, I was devastated. I never thought I'd find myself crying over the weather, or caring quite so much, but after all the work that goes in to planning and all the family that had traveled to be with us I felt sick. I thought I would be so sad until the wedding was over but as soon as we stepped out of the car the crew, specifically Jack, turned the whole situation around. He brought us wine and firewood, walked us through the estate, allowed us to use this beautiful tent they had put up, and talked about the set-up and how we could work it all out no matter what happened with the weather. He spoke with me and my mother outside the front house in the windy, chilly weather for maybe an hour, reassuring us that no matter what happened he would figure it out, and he did. The morning of the wedding was rain, wind, hail, etc... but that didn't stop Jack, and our wedding planner Danielle (Every Little Detail), from making sure everything was perfect. We watched them run up and down the hills in the rain, shuffling people, heating the barn, and working so hard on our behalf, and I don't think a single guest really even noticed. All we heard was how beautiful the space was, how much fun everyone was having, how impressed they were. RIpley brought us umbrellas and blankets as waited on the porch during the ceremony and was so welcoming and accommodating. A Private Estate was the perfect venue for us. It is so customizable too, whether you want a fancy & formal affair, or a more relaxed party. The views and the grounds speak for themselves, but the true value is having a supportive staff who care as much about your wedding as you do. Every time I look at my wedding photos (the rain makes for some great lighting!) I remember all the love from our families and friends, and the overwhelming appreciation for the staff at A Private Estate. It is cliche, but if I could go back, I wouldn't change a thing. Two years later I still feel the same gratitude. With A Private Estate you can have the outdoor wedding of your dreams... even in a nor'easter.

Liberty Hall Estate 

4.5

Union, NJ
  • Up to 150 guests
  • Select services
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $1,500

Our historic house was built and finished in 1774 and was the home of New Jersey's first elected Governor William Livingston. Throughout time the house was purchased to the Kean family where they resided until the last resident passed away in 1995. Our 23 acres grounds are full of beautiful gardens. You may chose to get married in our gardens which can be found throughout the whole property. Guests will love exploring and walking around the grounds during some off periods of the event. A first floor house tour is also an option so you and your guests get to see the beauty of Liberty Hall Museum.

There were quite a bit of rules and miscommunications along the way. This made the experience, especially during the end of the engagement season and the actual wedding day a bit dramatic and exhausting. However, this could be avoided if every single detail is ironed out from the very beginning and you are giving consistent reminders of what you're anticipating your day to be like. Overall, the venue is gorgeous and every single area of it is grounds for awesome photo-ops. On a gorgeous day, you will absolutely not regret choosing this location. Not only is it super affordable, but they also give you the freedom to pick your other vendors to create your ideal wedding (as almost everything else is kind of "a la carte"). A bonus is that you get the whole grounds on your wedding day, so that's exciting for you and your guests!

We had a beautiful wedding at the greenhouse of the Beardsley Zoo. The GlowWild light festival in the evening simply added to the magic of the event. The coordinators were wonderful in helping us set up and organize everything. If I had one piece of constructive feedback, it would just be that the head coordinator, Lindsay, was sometimes tricky to get in contact with via telephone for things like making our deposit and final payment for the venue.

Set at the end of this Catskill Mountain Hollow in Roxbury, NY, this 64 acre farm estate is surrounded on 3 sides by 2,000 acres of forever wild land. It is a magical place. With a country house, flower farm and historic dairy barn it is the perfect backdrop to a outdoor wekeend long celebration.

The property is ideally situated “off the beaten path" with magnificent views of the Catskill Mountains stretching endlessly to the south, enveloping guests with a feeling of true serenity. Our guests come to relax, celebrate and create memories that last a lifetime.

Our September 2023 wedding at the Inn at West Settlement was what dreams are made of. Kim was the perfect partner for us to work with to bring our whimsical wedding to fruition, and not to mention is truly an A gardener and floral arranger (as well as her fabulous team!). I mean... look at any pictures of this venue and imagine the flowers but times 100!!!! It was also very fun and special to help with some of the arrangements the morning of with my mom, sisters and aunt. In general, the grounds are idyllic. The house and venue are wedding ready, beautiful and well-stocked. It was really fun to be able to share the weekend with a group of close friends who we invited to stay in the house with us. We had some big and somewhat silly ideas for ceremony and reception and Kim was a huge supporter as we talked through the logistics of said idea (for example, we had our ceremony in the round with four aisles) and helped us bring it to life. Kim helped us at every point to figure out the best vendors to work with in the area-- she has a wealth of ideas and good relationships with the best people in time. She helped us make sure our guests had all the information they needed to have a fabulous visit to Roxbury and not to mention helped a guest of ours figure out how to get her car fixed the morning after. Everyone who attended had a great time (and we encourage them to talk about it often!) thanks to Kim and her team. Planning a wedding is a lot to navigate but at the Inn at West Settlement, you are in good hands and will get to work with someone who cares about your happiness with every detail at every turn! I wish we could do it all over again! Thanks Kim and team!

I can't say enough positive things about MBYC. For starters, it is a beautiful little haven on the Long Island Sound, only a short drive outside of NYC. Our guests raved about how beautiful the venue is. However, the main reason that our wedding was so flawless was Bob McSweeney. Bob is the Director of Events at MBYC and he runs an extremely tight ship while being gracious and kind. He is extremely responsive to emails, no matter the time of day. He was flexible with everything and ensured that all of the logistics were communicated consistently and ahead of time. On the day of the wedding, he managed all of the vendors and the flow of events like a master. It truly went off without a hitch because of Bob. The food was also absolutely amazing, from the appetizers, to the steak, to the seabass, and the dessert table. Lastly, Abby was my bridal attendant and she was the most attentive person I could have ever dreamed of. She was always there, even when I didn't need her, and was supportive to me the entire night. I can't thank the entire staff enough for such an amazing wedding. It was truly a dream and I would recommend it to everyone!!

Spillian is a place of dreams. An exquisite mountain great camp built in 1888 by the Fleischmann's Yeast Family, Spillian evokes the rustic elegance of the Gilded Age with original, unique historic oil murals, furnished with antiques, a Steinway piano, a concert harp, all on thirty two acres in the magical Catskill mountains. Eight enchanting rooms, each differently appointed, a grand dining room with a huge table for feasting, antique furniture, silver, art, and oriental rugs, 2 wood burning fireplaces, a porch to die for, claw foot tubs in every bath, a pond, an utterly romantic Victorian era rustic gazebo, and forests to explore, filled with moss covered rocks, hemlocks. Intimate, completely private, charming, and elegant with superb in-house catering. Spillian is a four season wedding location and was built for family and for celebrations. Come and see what memories it can create for you!

My wife and I met and got engaged in the Catskill Mountains, so it was so important to us that we also got married there. We found Spillian from an online search, and my wife was instantly drawn to the place; I was skeptical. But after touring it for the first time and meeting the owners - Mark and Leigh - it was apparent this was the only place we would want to get married. At Spillian there are no rules, and intentionality is the driving force behind every decision. From the food, to the people, to the actual wedding day, if you can dream it they can accommodate it. We wanted to do our rehearsal dinner there, and they asked us what we wanted for food. I tentatively proposed a build-your-own Bahn Mi bar and Mark wrote back a delicious, detailed menu, complete with boba tea. The food was excellent, and the fact that they have some rooms for you and some guests to stay on site made it even more special. We elected to have our bridal party there and it was so nice to be able to spend some time with them before and after the wedding. We came with all of our own decorations, and our flowers were dropped off the night before, and we were nervous about getting everything set up that day. But Alex and Sam, our day-of coordinators, took care of everything and make it look even better than we had ever imagined. And when it came to the day of, we were so overwhelmed that it was hard to make snap decisions. Sam and Alex were so patient with us, and really helped guide us through the day. I can't sing their praises enough but will publicly thank them here for allowing us to have the wedding of our dreams.

Whether it’s a massive party or intimate gathering, the Cedar Lakes property can accommodate as many guests as your event requires, with overnight lodging for over two hundred. Our style blends rustic elegance with nature, so guests enjoy a sleepaway camp vibe with all the luxuries of a 5-star hotel—steaming rain showers and feather down beds included. In-house chefs create seasonal menus with produce grown in our onsite organic garden, while our craft cocktails please any spirit connoisseur.

Your wedding weekend package includes full access to the property, including lakes, pools, hiking and biking trails, and bonfire pits. We strive to make certain each wedding is specially tailored to fit the couple.

We got to know Cedar Lakes by attending winter weekends and pop-up dinners while planning our wedding. Frankly, we worried that was a mistake as we got close to our wedding day -- after we had experienced CLE's hospitality a few times, our expectations were through the roof. Turns out, not a problem. With the help of the people at Cedar Lakes and our incredible team of vendors, despite our anticipation, we were absolutely floored. It was beyond perfect. The people at Cedar Lakes - each and every one of them - embody a blend of warmth and professionalism I've never witnessed anywhere. They treated every guest like family, every event went off exactly as planned, and if there were any problems that arose during the day, we never heard about them. At every turn, the CLE team added unique surprises that matched our own and our guests' style perfectly. We left (reluctantly) on Monday morning feeling as though we'd made friends at CLE, and have been treated like family every time we've returned. This is really a special place for us, and I can't emphasize enough how much of that comes from each and every person who works so hard to make CLE what it is. The food gets its own paragraph. This isn't wedding food, and its not restaurant food. It's some of the best I've had anywhere, and the CLE team executes it perfectly whether for 2 or 200. Not only is the food insanely delicious, but it is plated beautifully in a way that compliments your decor and is always paired with perfect specialty cocktails, wines, and other beverages. This was a huge reason why we chose CLE, and we are still hearing about each and every meal from our guests. All that said, the best part about this venue is the setting - it is a surreal environment to be surrounded by friends and family for a weekend, and enabled us to spend quality time with the people we love during our wedding. We can't imagine a better set-up than CLE. Having accommodations for nearly the entire wedding on site (and being there for the whole weekend) allowed us to be truly present with our guests. We were able to share some meals and downtime with our friends and family in a more causal settings, and we felt like we were able to be a part of the weekend our guests experienced (which, honestly, we are still a bit jealous of -- sports fields, two pools, a beer garden, not to mention the lake and the blob). It warms our hearts to hear over and over from our guests, even to this day, that it was the most fun they've ever had at a wedding. All in all, we looked at a lot of venues, and I cannot imagine having had our wedding anywhere else. This will forever be one of our favorite places on earth, and we're thrilled to see what's next for CLE and their team. It doesn't get any better than this.

The Bird and Bottle Inn

Garrison, NY
  • Up to 150 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

Nestled in the hills of the beautiful Hudson Highlands, this one-time colonial stagecoach stop is over 250 years old and has been lovingly restored in 2021 with all of the modern comforts. Meticulously landscaped grounds, a peaceful brook with overlook bridge and 5 unique, beautifully appointed guest rooms make this the perfect weekend wedding destination.

Flashback to last year, my fiance and I got engaged on 11/25/22 and scrambled to find a Hudson Valley venue for 2023. We must've looked at 15 venues - some big, some small, some mansions, some farms - we saw it all! Although we met with some amazing venues, we struggled to find one where we didn't feel like just another number. Frustrated, I went back home and decided to look at some photographers photos vs the general 'best hudson valley' venue searches. It was there, in one of the photographers albums, where I found the Bird & Bottle Inn. The beauty of the Inn was captivating, quirky and beautiful. I immediately reached out, connected with Stefania, and my fiance and I saw AND secured the 10/28/23 date just days later on a snowy winter day. The tent wasn't setup, it was a blizzard, but for some reason, the warmth of the staff, beauty of the inside of the inn and our gut feeling led us to make the best decision we could've made for our venue. Working with Evelyn and Stefania at the Bird & Bottle Inn didn't feel like we were planning a wedding with a venue - it felt like we were working with family. Family that cared about our happiness and wanted to make sure every detail was perfect. My fiance and I were not easy - we changed a lot of details, we added a bunch of rentals last minute, we asked probably 100 questions throughout the process and every time we reached out, we were met with ease, sometimes a phone call and even an invite to see our vision in person over the summer vs wait until fall to do the final walkthrough. The day of wedding team met us with the same detail and love as Stefania and Evelyn did throughout the entire process. The food was incredible, the coordination was on point all night and the bartending and signature drinks are still being raved about among our friends and family. Frankly, the entire wedding is still being raved about with many saying this is the best wedding they've ever attended. If you're looking for a wedding venue that feels magical and in a weird way, almost like you're at your own home, then this is your place. We cannot recommend the team, venue and coordinators enough, and we're beyond grateful we chose this special place for our wedding. Thank you to everyone at the Bird & Bottle Inn! You will always be a part of our story!

Red Maple Vineyard is a beautiful vineyard and farm, located on 143-acres of vibrant and diverse property which over looks the historic Hudson River. The land is composed of a renovated cow barn from the 1800's, stone foundation ruins, horse paddock, chicken coop, expansive lawns, forests, vineyards, fruit & vegetable, herb and floral gardens. Our property provides endless opportunities for pictures, and sets an incomparable scene for your ceremony and reception. Red Maple Vineyard wants to bring you a wedding experience you will remember for the rest of your lives. We look forward to hearing from you and helping you dream, create, and experience the wedding of your dreams. All catering and event planning is done in-house.

Red Maple Vineyard was an absolute DREAM. Simply put: the grounds/pavilion are stunning, the staff are incredible, and the food is the best food you’ll ever have at a wedding (food was very high on our priority list!) I could write an entire essay about what an incredible time we had both planning our wedding and during the big day. From the moment we toured with Gary, we knew we wanted to get married there. Their staff were so communicative, and helped us plan some untraditional things like our own chuppah and a Pittsburgh cookie table (thank you Amy!!) Planning was a breeze, they really try to make everything so easy for you. The actual day was so stress free. Michelle made sure everything ran on time, and people got where they needed to go. So many of our guests told us it was the best wedding they had ever went to, and we have to agree - unbiased, of course We were (and still are) over the moon with how everything turned out – even better than we had hoped for. I really can’t properly convey how much we love RMV. Thank you all so much!!

Events at Rokeby

Red Hook, NY
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Raw space

  • Starts at $6,500

This 400 acre estate on the Hudson River on Lenni Lenape ancestral land, with its gently rolling hills, expansive view of the Catskills, and extraordinary sunsets, is in the heart of the Hudson Valley and only 90 minutes north of New York City. Rokeby is a designated Historic Landmark, still privately owned by the descendants of Alida Livington, for whom the house was built in 1815.

We cancelled our big wedding due to covid and we were planning to just show up at a local lake and have our wedding ceremony... that is until we saw Rokeby! Marina was very responsive and walked us around the property, which is absolutely exquisite. The grounds have several perfect ceremony locations (in front of the garden, mountain view, on the porch, in front of a very old beautiful tree) and Marina had the ceremony space set up exactly how we had asked. The experience was seamless and our guests continue to talk about how wonderful the estate is. Highly, highly recommend!

GCH was the most amazing venue. I’ve been to a majority of the venues on Long Island but this one took the cake. The food was OUTSTANDING (everyone raves about it), the people (especially Paul) were so unbelievably helpful and amazing. My bridal attendant Nang was WOW. She held my train everywhere while we were walking and fluffed it to help the photographers, she always had water for me and the groom, she carried my lipsticks and had me reapplying, she bustled my dress so easily so we didn’t have to bother my mom, she got mine and my husbands afterparty outfits ready for us so we didn’t have to go upstairs… the list goes on and on. If you want a venue that makes your life super easy leading up to the wedding and the day of the wedding and one that your guests will rave about for literally months this is the place.
