Waterloo Village 

5.0

Stanhope, NJ

  • All-inclusive

  • Starts at $19,000

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.

My fiancé Lauren and I are getting married at the Waterloo Village in Byram, NJ this fall and our experience so far has been amazing. We were able to do a complimentary group tasting which was great, not only to taste the food (which was amazing) but it also gave us a good idea of what the venue and layout would look with a full house. It was also a great opportunity to meet other couples getting married at the venue as well and exchange ideas. Our planner Christine has also been great, she helped us build our menu and has been able to answer all of our questions. Overall it’s been a great experience and we can’t wait for our big day.

We cannot say enough amazing things about Bello Giorno Estate. The location of the estate is adjacent to a small river, which made for absolutely spectacular wedding photos. Think Secret Garden meets Italian Villa! We also loved the intimate feel of the banquet hall, which was the perfect fit for our wedding size. Our guests loved the food and service. Even though we planned our wedding remotely, working with Monica and Stephanie was incredibly easy, as they were very responsive to both email and phone calls. We felt like they went above and beyond to accommodate us and tailor our wedding so it would be perfect. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to hold our wedding. Thank you Bello Giorno!

Crystal Springs Country Club at Grand Cascades Lodge 

4.7

Hamburg, NJ
  • Up to 300 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $19,000
  • Offer

Incorporate this beautiful mountain oasis into an outdoor ceremony in the lush wedding garden or serene Quarry. Perched atop a sweeping crest, with the most stunning panoramic views in the tri-state area, you will find the luxurious four-star Adirondack-style Grand Cascades Lodge and Crystal Springs Country Club. The Emerald Ballroom is the ideal venue for weddings with a larger guest list, comfortably accommodating up to 300 guests & an indoor cocktail hour in the open-air rotunda that overlooks the scenic Kittatinny and Pochuck mountains.

We had our wedding at Grand Cascades in June 2022 and had such an amazing experience! Throughout the planning process we worked with Sarah, who was awesome all the way from planning the details, picking up the phone whenever I needed her, providing advice on anything I asked, and all the way through to the day of. She handled everything that came up with grace and kindness, even in tough family situations that arose. We chose CS Grand Cascades for a few key reasons (1) the amazing menu and presentation of the food (2) the beautiful ceremony, cocktail hour and reception spaces no matter rain or shine and (3) the value you get for your money. We also LOVED the fact that the hotel was on-site and we didn’t need to worry about transportation for ourselves or our guests throughout the day and afterwards. This provided SO many advantages, including access to the bridal suite all day and being able to take advantage of the hotel bar on-site for a causal after party without any extra cost to us. It is definitely an under-rated venue in NJ that we are SO happy we found! We were able to stick to our ideal budget while not comprising on quality of the event. I have been told by so many people how we threw the BEST wedding they’ve ever been to. The event staff is a well-oiled machine and truly think of everything to make your day the most special and seamless experience. Highly recommend to all future brides!!
