Our wedding day was absolutely perfect thanks to Hildegard and the SkyView staff! We planned our wedding less than a year out, and Hildegard was very accommodating and very responsive throughout the planning process - she was truly a pleasure to work with. On wedding day, we also had Jenn and Iwan helping out to make sure the day ran smoothly. We did our ceremony off-site so we cannot speak on that, but our cocktail hour and reception were absolutely awesome! We still have guests raving about how good the food was and how beautiful the venue and grounds are. You definitely get the best value for your money in terms of northern NJ wedding venues, and we couldn't recommend SkyView enough!

From the moment we started planning, The Gramercy exceeded every expectation. When I submitted inquiries through Zola, Megan Dunn was the only person to respond with such detailed, timely information which was a huge relief as this was our first time planning a wedding. She guided us with patience, answered every question, and was always present during our site visits. We chose The Gramercy because of the stunning aesthetics, the warm and welcoming staff, the value included in the cost per person, and the fact that they host only one event per day meaning their full attention is on you. Our wedding on June 12 was beyond perfect. Pauline, our host, truly took care of us, making sure we ate, had drinks, and were enjoying ourselves the entire time. She extended that same care to our families too. The team beautifully set up our décor, and they even included extra decorations to help us save money, which was such a thoughtful touch. The food was amazing, and the desert station blew us away! We also held our ceremony onsite, and Megan was incredibly helpful in navigating that process. She guided us on where to go, helped our officiant get registered, and made sure we had all the information needed to obtain our marriage license. On top of that, the staff worked seamlessly with our vendors to ensure everyone was set up and prepared for the day, which made everything run smoothly from start to finish. Huge thank you to the entire Gramercy team for making our day so special and a special shoutout to Megan for being so kind and helpful throughout the whole process. If you’re looking for a venue that will treat your event with genuine care and attention we recommend The Gramercy to anyone, any day!

They set up & cleaned everything up for us which was lovely. the hotel bar stayed open late (sunday wedding) but you couldn’t make it private. so you had people at the bar trying to add to an open tab. you get a room block, the director of rooms Rebecca is very easy to work with as well. the outdoor ceremony space is gorgeous!!!

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.

I had my wedding on 9/26/25 and the venue looked so beautiful! Even better than when I toured it back in November. Carmela and Mona were so helpful and accommodating during the planning process. There were so many last minute changes and hiccups like transportation vendors falling through, but Carmela was able to help me book last minute transportation that was even bigger than I was expecting! Everything went so much better than I imagined and all the guests were so impressed with the venue and food! Evette (I hope I’m spelling her name right) was my bridal attendant the day of.

On top of that, my bridal attendant was incredible—so attentive and thoughtful, always making sure I had everything I needed throughout the day. The attention to detail, seamless coordination, and exceptional service made our wedding day unforgettable. If you want a team that delivers perfection, this is it!

I can’t express how amazing Stone House is as a wedding venue. Our guests could not stop raving about how beautiful and magical Stone House is as a venue, how attentive and professional all the staff are (big shoutout to Michelle for working with us so closely to make the day so special for us, for Sarah who stayed right by our side answering all our questions and going out of her way to even be with us on our wedding day-making us feel so special, to Mercedes who made everything run on point the day-of, end to end, and Rebecca for being such an attentive bridal attendant and making it so much easier to move around in a big dress!) Everything was so perfect and that’s all due to the Stone House staff. L They were so on top of everything -I (a serial worrywart) didn’t worry about a single thing that day. Thanks so much Stone House! Also the food is AMAZING!!

Gabe and the entire crew at HH knocked it out of the park. The entire day went flawlessly, they worked seamlessly with our vendors, set up the rooms better than I could have ever imagined. Not to mention the space itself/location is GORGEOUS….but funny enough, we booked the space for the insane views of NYC, but happened to get the foggiest day of December - it. Did. Not. Matter. !!! Hudson House KILLED IT and made our day beautiful, stunning, and perfect start to finish. Our guests are raving about the time they had.

Our wedding at The Renaissance with Falco's Catering was amazing. Heather helped us with less than a years time to plan our day. She was quick to respond to any and all questions and was so flexible in meeting me to go over details. The owners, John and Steve, were also so friendly and willing to make our day special. The food is amazing, which was seen at the mock wedding tasting (this is great so you can see that they have quality food). They hold only one event at a time, making your day their focus. The main room has great acoustics and the staff are so attentive to all the details. Lisa was our maitre'd and she was truly to definition of professional. She made sure we had everything we wanted for the day and helped run each part smoothly. Thank you so much!

Why Choose New Jersey for Your Wedding Day?

New Jersey gives you four distinct regions with unique wedding settings and styles to match any vision. September tops the charts for wedding inquiries here, so you'll want to plan ahead if you're eyeing a date during peak season. The varied landscapes mean you can find everything from waterfront elegance to historic charm without traveling far.

What Types of Wedding Venues Can You Find in New Jersey?

The venue scene in New Jersey covers just about every style imaginable. Luxury estates like Park Chateau in East Brunswick offer stunning French-inspired architecture with gorgeous European gardens that make for incredible photo backdrops. If water views are your thing, places like Liberty House showcase breathtaking NYC skyline panoramas right alongside the water. History buffs fall in love with venues like Pleasantdale Chateau in West Orange with its historic grounds and Mediterranean gardens. Modern couples gravitate toward industrial spaces such as The Art Factory in Paterson where contemporary design meets character and uniqueness.

How Much Should You Budget for a New Jersey Wedding?

Wedding venues in New Jersey typically run between $8,600 and $10,600, which falls right in line with the national range of $6,500-$12,000. Your overall costs will scale with your guest count.

Mid-sized weddings with 150 guests come in around $57,123 and larger gatherings of 200 reach about $71,002. Going bigger? Expect to invest around $84,881 for 250 guests or $98,761 for 300 guests. These figures help you set realistic expectations as you start planning.

Which Budget Categories Matter Most for New Jersey Celebrations?

Knowing where your money typically goes helps you allocate your budget effectively. Venues take the biggest slice at about 17% of your total budget or $9,599 for a 150-guest wedding.
