I am still riding the high from my wedding hosted at Skyview Golf Club and I can't say enough great thing. If you're planning a wedding this is your venue. Not only is it one of the more affordable wedding venues in North Jersey, the staff and specifically coordinator Hildegard Power, are incredible at what they do. Hildegard walked me through the entire planning process, maintained the excitement and quickly answered all of questions (no matter how repetitive or the hour). The venue itself, without any additional decor, is stunning. Modern, open layout that accentuate the natural scenery. The bartenders were incredible, my guests are still asking me for recipes from our signature drinks (house cocktails suggested an made by Skyview) and the food was delicious. Hildegard ensured we actually got to eat on our wedding day, enjoy our choices and savor each moment and bite. The options for food, both cocktail hour and dinner are extraordinary--it became my husband and I's favorite date night activity to try to narrow down our favorite menu items. Eating them all on the big day was icing on the cake. I had a very specific vision for my wedding and Hildegard worked with me and my family to bring it to life, from decor drop-off and organization to final touches and last minute changes on the big day. More than anything, the most worthwhile and best thing I got from Skyview was reassurance and peace of mind. As a bride, there are a million decisions you have to make and even more things that will creep into your mind to worry you. I was never once worried that something may go wrong or fall through at Skyview. Hildegard built a strong foundation of trust and communication with us that truly made the big day everything I hoped. I was able to be in the moment and enjoy every second of my wedding to the fullest thanks to Skyview.

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.

Our wedding at Grand Oaks Country Club was absolutely phenomenal! We could not recommend this venue more highly for anyone considering hosting an event here. From the very first email with our event planner, Amanda nearly three years ago, to our first visit, through the entire planning process, and finally the wedding day itself—everything was seamless, supportive, and filled with genuine care in every way. This venue doesn't just host your event, they make the event special and authentically personalized to you! The Grand Oaks team went above and beyond with our wedding day. We had zero stress because every detail was handled perfectly—the setup, food, drinks, and service were all exceptional. Our guests raved about the food, the friendly bartenders, and the overall atmosphere being stunning, well maintained, and generally gorgeous. The venue even took us around the golf course for photos in a golf cart, which was such a fun touch! The staff at Grand Oaks were all also fantastic! Amanda and Alyssa are amazing event planners and made our planning process so clear every step of the way! The incredible Maitre'Ds (especially, Monica) and Wedding Attendant Staff took care of our families and wedding party as if we were their own. Our wedding day truly felt like magic, and that’s thanks to the entire Grand Oaks team. We’re endlessly grateful and will cherish this day forever. When (not if!) we host our next event at GOCC, we’ll absolutely be back!

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.

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.

My husband, Ryan, and I had our wedding at Windows on the Water this June, and it was truly magical, everything we had ever dreamed of, and more. We’ve always loved the water, so we toured several venues with waterfront views. The moment we walked into Windows on the Water, it was breathtaking! We knew instantly this was where we wanted to say “I do.” When we booked WoW, Ryan’s health was uncertain. He had been diagnosed with cancer just months earlier. We held onto the hope of creating the dream wedding we envisioned, even though at times it felt like an unattainable goal. Thankfully, Ryan responded quickly to treatment, his health improved dramatically, and we continued planning. From the very start, Mike H. was nothing short of amazing. We shared our story, and his support and genuine care went far beyond a business transaction. He understood our journey, and his check-ins throughout the months leading up to the wedding made us feel special and hopeful that our dream would become a reality. Prior to the big day, Cheryl was a lifesaver, patiently answering all my questions and guiding us through the details . On our wedding day, she managed everything with such professionalism and care that all we had to do was enjoy the moment. It was a heatwave that day, but the staff went above and beyond, attending to our every need and even making sure we stayed hydrated! Every detail was perfect from how they arranged our decor to planning everything. We’ve heard countless compliments from our guests, about the delicious food, the stunning views, and how it was the best wedding they had ever attended. Even months later, people are still raving about it! We feel incredibly grateful, not only that Ryan’s health improved, but that we were able to live our dream day surrounded by our friends and family. Our wedding will forever be the most wonderful and meaningful day of our lives, and we owe so much of that to Mike, Cheryl, and the entire WoW team. If you want to get married somewhere with a gorgeous view, with incredible food and the most attentive staff then run, don’t walk, to Windows on the Water!

We had the best day of our lives at the Madison Hotel! We actually found them through Zola, having never heard of them before. When we toured, we fell in love with the Conservatory, which is ultimately where we had our ceremony and reception. The day was amazing - the food was delicious (and there was so much of it!), the hotel was beautiful, and it was convenient having our guests onsite for all activities (like our after party). I only deducted one star due to communication; I felt like most of the communication was driven by us, such as scheduling our final venue walkthrough. Everyone was very helpful, but I would have liked a bit more communication as a type A planner. Other than that, we couldn’t have asked for a better celebration of our love.

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!
