We fell in love with this venue the moment we drove up the road. My husband and I grew up in NJ, live in Brooklyn, and were looking for a venue that felt like a nature retreat while still being accessible for our friends and family. Milford is a great town just down the road and the hotels are so close too. Linnea and Alec were so communicative and helpful with the endless lists of questions we sent them. We cannot thank them enough for setting the stage for the weekend - and I'm just so impressed with how seamless and easy it felt to use their venue. We were struck just by the beauty of the whole property. It's absolutely marvelous! We were surrounded by charming little bunnies and butterflies the whole weekend. We took advantage of the place for the whole weekend - a Friday night pizza truck party, multiple pool and hot tub hangouts, and a Sunday bagel brunch in the barn. Everybody was raving about the barn, farmhouse, and cottage. The sunset during the reception created a great atmosphere for our guests to congregate and enjoy the lawn. We felt right at home and it made our wedding so incredibly special.

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!!!

Featuring a working mill, blacksmith shop, active church, and several beautiful historic houses, Waterloo Village is a time capsule surrounded by an air of tranquil beauty. With its rich history, Waterloo Village is the perfect setting for weddings. Boasting two spectacular indoor event spaces—the newly-renovated meeting house and the rustic pavilion—in addition to its spacious outdoor compound, Waterloo has the resources and ambiance to make your special occasion a memorable success. As a remarkably well-preserved example of a 19th-Century canal town and the site of a 400-year-old Lenape Indian village, Waterloo Village is an incredibly valuable piece of New Jersey history. 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 are absolutely thrilled about our upcoming wedding at Waterloo Village, and here's why: Culinary Delight: From the moment we tasted their farm-to-table menu, we were blown away by the incredible flavors and the impeccable quality of ingredients. Booking Waterloo without prior knowledge of their cuisine turned out to be a delightful surprise. With a diverse array of menu options, cake flavors, and hors d'oeuvres, they truly cater to every palate. Inclusive Offerings: Waterloo Village goes above and beyond with its inclusions. From the elegantly adorned tables to the picturesque getting ready areas, card box, seating chart, ceremony chairs, every detail is thoughtfully provided. The venue's scenic beauty serves as the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable celebration. Quirky Charm: What truly sets Waterloo apart for us, are their alpacas. The opportunity to stroll into cocktail hour accompanied by these adorable animals added a unique touch to our wedding. It's an experience we couldn't find anywhere else, and the fact that it's included at no extra charge is simply remarkable. Stunning Location: With its blend of vintage buildings, historic charm, and natural beauty, Waterloo Village offers an abundance of photo opportunities. Whether against the backdrop of the canal, the incredible fireplaces, the farmland, or the gardens, every corner of this location exudes timeless beauty. Exemplary Service: From our initial inquiries to the tasting session, the communication and professionalism of Waterloo's coordinators and staff have been exceptional. Their prompt responses and friendly demeanor have instilled us with confidence that our special day is in capable hands. In essence, Waterloo Village encapsulates everything we envisioned for our wedding: exquisite cuisine, inclusive amenities, unique experiences, breathtaking surroundings, and top-notch service. Once we tour Waterloo, we were set and couldn't be more excited to celebrate the beginning of our marriage in such a magical setting.
