I love especially the large ceilings and all the natural light to create one-of-a-kind imagery, not to mention the European courtyard with cobble stones and fire escapes, and redbrick.I forgot to mention the New Orleans trolleys that start your experience and can take you the the Great Paterson Falls for your wedding pictures is another option. The Artfactory is an experience that you will remember forever ,this is not your typical carpet and chandeliers.

We celebrated our son’s wedding on Saturday 9-30 when there were 3 other weddings and it couldn’t have been more lovely! Our day-of coordinator was Chris, whose sister got married there and whose mother (MOB!) is the architect for the Art Factory. Couldn’t be nicer or more helpful. The bathrooms are spacious and clean with baskets of essentials and well-stocked (I was looking for that)! Everything was clean from the moment we arrived at 8:30AM and stayed that way even though they were moving furniture and setting up props and decorations and signs and customizing the space throughout the day. Our family and friends haven’t stopped talking about it! Do yourself a favor and go see for yourself. We plan on going back when (if!) our youngest gets engaged because there is no other venue like the Art Factory! Thanks Donata! You created a Very special place and you made our family very happy!

The Lodge at Stirling Ridge This mid-century modern, yet industrial space is fitted with floor-to-ceiling windows, wrought-iron chandleries, and a stone fireplace standing 20 feet tall. The mulit-level cocktail space offers the look and feel of an art gallery, while incorporating brick walls, slate and wood floors, and an angled ceiling.

My daughter was married at The Stonehouse in The Lodge. There are not enough positive words to describe the planning and the wedding. Carissa is an absolute pleasure to work with and I imagine to work for. She has the most amazing team of professional and friendly staff. The first time we sat down with her to plan the wedding, we felt like we were special clients. That feeling never disappeared from that day until the wedding. My daughter and I had endless questions throughout the planning. Carissa always responded in a timely fashion and never made us feel like we were a bother. My guests are still talking about the wedding, the venue and especially the food. My husband and I have frequently eaten at The Stonehouse and have always been impressed. We were not surprised that the catering is equally impressive. From the tasting, to planning the menu, to the actual wedding, the choices were endless and amazing. I can not think of a single thing I would change about the day. It was Perfect!! Landmark Group is a top wedding venue because they know how to do it right the first time and every time!!!

A charming, boutique hotel venue, the Olde Mill Inn offers an inviting backdrop for your big day! From the wall of French Doors leading from our Ballroom to the Courtyard and Gardens, to winding staircases and picturesque sitting rooms, there are countless spaces for you and your guests to enjoy. We are a true “Wedding Weekend” destination with hotel rooms and spaces to host your guests from Rehearsal Dinner straight through to your Post Nuptial Breakfast. Everything in between, from complimentary Bridal Lounge to After Party, is also available!

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!

Grain House Restaurant

The Historic Grain House Restaurant built in 1768 is perfect for intimate rustic style weddings! This unique space features cocktail hour in the Fox & Hounds Room overlooking the riverside lawn and receptions in our Hunt Room complete with cozy fireplace, large built in bar, and seasonal tented patio! We are a true “Wedding Weekend” destination with hotel rooms at the Olde Mill Inn hotel on property and spaces to host your guests from Rehearsal Dinner straight through to your Post Nuptial Breakfast. Everything in between, from complimentary Bridal Lounge to After Party, is also available!

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.

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.

Picture-Perfect. Modern. Sprawling Views. Incredible Sunsets. Indoor-Outdoor space for ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. Oversized Dance Floor. Large floor-to-ceiling windows. You will love Brooklake!

I am beyond satisfied with my wedding experience with Brooklake Country Club. We worked with Wendy and for 18 months, she guided us with her expertise and professionalism every step of the way. I could always rely on her to get back to us right away and do whatever was necessary to make our day memorable. The venue only hosts one event at a time, so on the day of your event, the entire staff is working tirelessly to make YOUR day run as smoothly as possible. On the day of my wedding, I did not have to worry about a thing. My bridal attendant, Michelle, was absolutely phenomenal. From morning until night, she was there to make my experience so much easier so that I could truly enjoy every minute of the experience. Along with Wendy, our Maitre D Natalia kept the day running without a misstep. My parents raved about the level of service they received at their table, and all my guests complimented me on the quality of food served. The venue has breathtaking views that are perfect for pictures and can be enjoyed from anywhere on the grounds. I would absolutely recommend this venue for anyone looking to host a wedding or event there. Not only is it beautiful, but the staff are caring and efficient as well. They made our day a dream come true!

The venue handled a lot of the large, stressful items and made the most difficult decision be what to choose for dinner because there were so many goos options! The day of everything was amazing. Our Maître d' for the night, Adel, was extremely attentive and sweet, anticipating everything from keeping our drinks refreshed to having a napkin at the ready after feeding each other the cake.
