I cannot rave more about Bello Giorno Estates. We just had our wedding on Saturday and Stephanie was wonderful to have as a coordinator. She made my vision come to life with the decor and was so sweet and helped me with anything I needed, including a few dress mishaps! Monica runs the business and is such a generous and gracious woman, as are all of the staff. Highly recommend this venue for anyone with a small intimate wedding. Prices were very affordable and the food is amazing! Thanks for making Ryan and I’s day perfect!

Choosing Stroudsmoor was the #1 best decision I could have made when it came to my wedding. It is the PERFECT place to get married. They have everything right there for you no matter which venue on their property you choose. We got married at The Pavillion because we wanted an outdoor ceremony with a “backyard/park” feel. From the moment I met my event planner, Danica, the planning went smoothly and every detail was covered. Grayson handled the flowers and decor beautifully. My bouquet came out better than I ever could have expected and the ceremony and reception decor was everything i was looking for. I came to them with a cake stand I had seen that I was going to rent myself but instead THEY HAD ONE MADE!! That’s just one example of many of how they go above and beyond to make your day a dream come true. From the ceremony to the reception things were seamless from a venue standpoint. Danica and Kailey planned my day with me and made sure my vision came to life. Checked in often and even made sure our fist look went smoothly while juggling another wedding. Maddy, Kim, Jenny, and Ally took it from immediately after the ceremony to the end of the night, never leaving me and my guests without whatever it was we needed. Jenny ensured I had a drink in my hand before I even thought to head to the bar for another starting with hitting the end of the aisle after the “I do”. My guests raved about she service and attentiveness of everyone and I couldn’t have asked for a better place to start my next chapter as wife! Stroudsmoor will take your vision and make it a reality!!

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.

We had our wedding at The One & Only Westmount Country Club in early November 2025. It was a perfect venue! The staff were amazing, and the site was impeccable. From the moment we toured the Westmount it was pretty clear it would be perfect for us. We wanted to do the wedding on-site in the garden off the Continental Ballroom. Karen worked with us to make everything perfect and coordinated every detail according to our vision for the day. Since the wedding, we have heard nothing but praise and compliments from our guests. Multiple people have told us they have never had such good food at a wedding, and the dessert extravaganza (only word to describe it) was second to none. From the welcome drinks and snacks, to the cocktail hour, to dinner service and dessert, our guests cannot stop raving about the food and service. The outdoor venue with twinkle lights in the trees, up lighting, a fountain next to the gazebo, and the picturesque garden gate was the entire aesthetic we wanted. We highly recommend The One & Only Westmount Country Club. The staff, the venue, the food, and the suggested vendors all made for a dream wedding and magical night.

From the moment we stepped foot on the property we knew we landed on somewhere special. It was a no-brainer to pick Birchwood Manor as our wedding venue not only because of the beautiful grounds but how outstanding Farrell is. We had investigated about 10 venues but Birchwood Manor stood apart from them all. After having our wedding we can say how we made the right choice. All of the wedding party was comfortable and able to get ready on site. We were stress free to whole day. Farrell executed our plans every step of the way. She accommodated the entire Manor for us to use the entire day. The food ...and especially our wedding cake was out of this world. Our guests enjoyed our special day as much as we did. We are so very thankful to Farrell and how amazing everything turned out and so happy we chose this venue. To any bride out there I highly recommend this venue.

Nestled in the beautiful mountains of Northwestern New Jersey, Rock Island Lake Club is a rare find for your intimate getaway wedding. Surrounded by organic beauty set on a private lake, this hidden gem creates the perfect setting for those fun, romantic and outdoor vibes you're looking for on your special day.​

Rock Island was the best decision we could have ever made. Our experience was 110% perfect from start to finish. From our first tour with Stephanie, we were hooked and immediately knew 'this was the place'. In the 18 months leading up to our wedding, we never felt overwhelmed or alone in the planning process. Our coordinator Elaine, was and IS the best of the best. Every email, check-in meeting and question was always greeted with excitement, warmth and reassurance. Elaine made sure everything was perfect not only throughout the planning process, but especially on the day of our wedding. The day itself truly was flawless. Elaine, Abby, Robby, Jill and the countless other Rock Island Staff we worked with day of ensured that not one thing was out of place. We, alongside all our guests, felt so much love and attention from the staff that they felt like family by the end of the night. We cannot thank you all enough for the work you do and how meant for your roles each of you are. The venue itself is stunning, with an updated and picturesque lakeside setting that felt so inclusive and special. We could not have asked for a more beautiful backdrop for our wedding. We came into wedding planning wanting an 'indoor/ outdoor' vibe and Rock Island delivered that in every way. The food was also some of the best wedding food we have seen/ tried (our guests would agree!) which is a true testament to the kitchen staff! Additionally, our bar staff did a phenomenal job with our signature cocktails and espresso martini bar. We hope to experience RILC as a guest some day! It's been almost a month and my husband and I talk about our wedding every day. Every family member and friend we talk to tell us it was one of the most incredible weddings they have ever been to. If we could relive the day over, there's not one thing we would change. Thank you Rock Island Lake Club for EVERYTHING. Would recommend to anyone looking for a NJ wedding venue.

We were married on 5/10/25 & I still am beaming ear to ear about my experience at Minerals Hotel. From the moment we stepped on the property to view the venue, we knew it was special. Rachel greeted us and gave us the grand tour & made us feel so comfortable. Her bubbly personality and enthusiasm for the space and everything they had to offer really sold us. We fell in love with everything. I did not realize my experience would be getting that much better with Dana as my coordinator. She went above and beyond to help us. She answered any and all of questions, she gave me honest feedback, and always put my needs ahead of anything else. She’s a professional & a saint. My whole experience as a bride was made better from her being there for us throughout the whole experience. Our wedding day went extremely smooth & I don’t know if it would have went that way without her and her team. Our wedding weekend was everything we could have wanted and more. The minerals hotel staff took care of everything and made everyone feel so comfortable. I cannot tell you how many people are still texting us about how amazing everything was and how they want to find more excuses to come to this hotel & have another event. For the weekend, we opted for a welcome party for all of our guests the night before & offered snacks and a cash bar in the diamond room- it really set the scene for the whole weekend. Our bartender that night kept the drinks flowing and everyone had the best time. The late night snacks were really good too. We also opted for a farewell brunch the day after the wedding in the same room and it was perfect. The breakfast buffet is unmatched & was much needed after a night of partying. We got married in the Sweetgrass Pavilion at Minerals hotel and it was perfect. Not only is the pavilion itself beautifully designed but the staff were on top of everything. They made sure that everyone had what they needed (which was a lot for a 180 person wedding) and were so organized. Our lovely bridal assistant, Kya, made sure my husband & I ate, were hydrated and even had to do a quick tailoring job for me to make my dress more comfortable to dance in haha. The dance floor was perfect for a big dance party, the chicken roulade & filet mignon were divine, and the bartenders made a fabulous lemon drop martini (my choice haha) There was not one thing I could say wrong about the whole night. The makeup artists (Marisol and Leah) and hairstylist (Caitlin) that we hired from the salon at Minerals were INCREDIBLE. Every single girl looked absolutely beautiful. A big concern when hiring was seeing how the makeup artists worked on mature skin & hooded eyes- they knocked it out of the park. These girls are extremely talented . The cocktail hour was amazing. Everyone was impressed with the food (also Kya wrapped up all the food for us so the day after the wedding my husband & I were able to try everything we weren’t able to- it was such a nice treat) & the after party pool party was so much fun (I highly recommend booking the pool, your guests, & you, will love it…and the after party churros- everyone ate those up). After the princess treatment we received at minerals hotel, I don’t think anyone should get married anywhere else. Dana, Kya, Rachel, & the rest of the minerals team made my dream wedding into a reality bigger than what I could have imagined for myself. Do not hesitate, book this venue, you will be so glad you did.

To put it simply, we could not have chosen a better wedding venue! Working with Sara (our wedding coordinator) was such a pleasure and she helped us make our vision come to life. The service, food, and level of professionalism was incredible and our guests cannot stop telling us how wonderful our wedding weekend was. The only thing we were disappointed about was that the remaining wedding favors (we did bottles of wine) went missing after my mother in law asked them to pack them up. They advised her that they would deliver them to her room, and unfortunately they never did. Aside from that, we were happy with our experience. If you are searching for a venue that feels like a true vacation without having to take a flight, this is the perfect place.

From the moment we toured The Madison, we knew we wanted to get married here. Aesthetically, it is perfection. We had our ceremony in the Conservatory & reception in the Grand Ballroom. Despite mixed reviews regarding communication from past brides, we were not displeased. We were not a couple who needed constant communication with the venue, which fit the standard for The Madison. The only reason we gave 4 stars, there was some turn over throughout our planning process & some replacements were better than others. I started out without concerns for the hotel blocks, but towards the final day I had some concerns & felt I was getting hard stopped quite a lot(for questions & requests that were not far fetched). However, the rooms were perfect & the staff at the counter was AMAZING. We did have a day of coordinator who helped make our vision come to life, however Charles, Maitre’d, was beyond helpful & communicative throughout the whole day! The staff were attentive, the transitions throughout the day were seamless. The guests raved about the cocktail hour & especially the dessert selection. Looking back on pictures & thinking about our day, The Madison was beyond perfect & I would do it all over again if I could.

THANK YOU, ALTHEA! We had a PERFECT wedding day at the Van Cortlandt Golf Lake House. The willow tree by the ceremony area is so beautiful and dramatic that the area doesn't really need any kind of dressing up. We were lucky enough to have perfect weather, but even if you don't, the tented deck is also so gorgeous and airy that you'd have a stunning ceremony no matter what. All our local guests kept saying they couldn't believe we were still in the city- the Lake House feels like a little oasis in the park! The getting-ready areas upstairs in the original locker rooms are seriously show-stopping in photos. The best part is that working with this venue is EASY. When we first met with Althea, she wrote out every single charge on an itemized list so we knew exactly what the event would cost from the get-go, and the amount only changed with our headcount. We went with the in-house catering (which guests are still raving to me about), so that was handled, the bar was handled, the rentals were handled, and everything was low-stress from start to finish. I really valued the transparency. We couldn't have had a better day. If you're trying to have a larger NYC wedding on a budget- look no further!! (Photo credit: Em Cullum Photography)

My husband and I chose the Envue Hotel to be our all-in-one wedding venue and hotel room block. We actually signed our contract two years ago when a different management team was in place. After signing the contract, a new management team came in, and we could not have been more amazed with the level of service. It truly was a blessing in disguise. Chris and his team are truly one of a kind. From day one, Chris jumped in and truly became a partner in our wedding planning process. He was not only great at communicating, but also open to collaborating to make it the day of our dreams. I feel like so many venues we visited put numerous restrictions in place, but Chris listened to all of our ideas and was open to executing on our vision. He advice and guidance was so reassuring throughout the entire process. The venue itself is STUNNING. I can’t even express how many compliments I received from our guests. “This is the most beautiful venue I’ve ever been to” and “This is the best cocktail hour I’ve attended” was uttered all throughout the night. The fact that guests could dance at the reception, and then step outside on the balcony made it such an incredible reception space. Everyone loved it! Edwin was our Maître D. He was so friendly and detail oriented. I didn’t notice a single thing that didn’t go the way I wanted it to, and I know it was because Edwin was running a tight ship behind the scenes. The food was incredible and the bartenders were so friendly. Ali handled our room block, and I was also so pleased with the level of communication. Ali was responsive and accommodative of our requests. I didn’t hear a single complaint about the check in process, and the rooms were updated, clean, and beautiful. The Skyline Suite is also perfect for those “getting ready photos” the morning of J All in all, I think the Envue is a hidden gem of a wedding venue! With the ferry right in front of the venue, you can have all the perks of NYC while avoiding the craziness. Thank you, Envue and Team!

From the moment we saw the back rooms at Arte Cafe, we knew it would be the perfect venue for our wedding. The staff were incredibly open to our wishes and flexible in working with us to make our vision a reality. The skylight and garden rooms looked absolutely beautiful, with the natural light and greenery creating a magical, airy atmosphere, and hanging lights and chandeliers brought elegance once the sun set. The cocktails, passed appetizers, and dinner buffet were all delicious, and the staff - from the servers and bartenders to the manager - were extremely attentive and prompt. Alexis, the venue coordinator, was very helpful in managing communications with the restaurant and coordinating the kitchen. She could be a bit hard to get in touch with at times and was not at the venue the day-of the wedding, but the management staff took over and the event got set up the way we wanted (although this took some prompting / follow up from us) and flowed seamlessly. We ended up with exactly the wedding we had hoped for. We highly recommend Arte Cafe for any couple looking for a stunning, flexible venue that will truly make your special day feel like a dream come true. You might have to put a bit more of your own time into making sure you get what you asked for, but if you are willing to put in some of the extra effort it is well worth it.

Why Choose Oakland, NJ for Your Wedding?

Oakland, NJ gives you that perfect balance of rustic charm and sophisticated elegance right in the heart of Bergen County. You'll love how easily accessible it is via Route 208 while still feeling surrounded by serene woodland beauty. Portobello Banquet Hall stands out as one of Oakland's signature venues with its classic architecture that doesn't sacrifice modern amenities. The stunning Ramapo Valley backdrop creates amazing photo opportunities no matter when you're getting married, though fall is particularly magical here. October weddings are actually the most requested in Oakland due to that gorgeous fall foliage; so plan accordingly if you're dreaming of those rich autumn colors.

What Are the Average Wedding Costs in Oakland, NJ?

Wedding costs in Oakland really depend on how many people you're inviting and which venue you select. Here's what you can expect to spend:

How Far in Advance Should You Book Your Oakland Venue?

Most couples book their Oakland venues about 14 months before their wedding day; that's around 420 days in advance. October is definitely the hottest month for venue inquiries especially for spaces that offer outdoor ceremony options showcasing Bergen County's spectacular fall foliage. If you're dreaming of those autumn colors for your backdrop, you'll want to lock in your date even earlier than the typical booking window.

Which Oakland Venues Offer Fully Accessible Facilities?

Portobello Banquet Hall features accessible entrances and can host up to 240 of your guests with flexible dining options including both plated and buffet-style service. You'll appreciate their essential amenities like a dedicated bridal room and plenty of parking with easy access right off Route 208.

How Do Oakland Venues Support Remote Guest Participation?

Basic streaming is pretty standard these days but venues near Oakland like The Rockleigh and Crystal Plaza can take your remote guest experience to the next level. Look for places that offer professional AV equipment dedicated virtual event coordinators and interactive elements like chat features and Q&A capabilities. If you want your remote guests to truly feel part of your celebration ask about VR/360 virtual tours that create an immersive experience almost like being there in person.

What Should You Ask When Touring Oakland Wedding Venues?

When visiting potential Oakland venues make sure to ask about their pricing structure vendor policies and how they accommodate cultural traditions.
