“As a florist, working at Edgewood Country Club is always a wonderful experience for myself and my team.As a client, planning my sister’s baby shower with my mom - we were blown away with how well Eric and the entire team at Edgewood took care of us.Everything was seamless, the food was incredible and the service was not only top tier but thoughtful.For example - I made a joke at one of our meetings about how I loved espresso martinis and Eric added a note to our food and beverage order immediately to ensure the staff was able to make espresso martinis that day!Speaking of Eric - in my work life I’ve worked with easily hundreds of event managers in New York and New Jersey and Eric is a standout talent in this field.Love love love this place!”

“From the moment my wife and I arrived at Florentine Gardens, we were welcomed in an atmosphere of warmth and elegance that truly set the tone for our special occasion. The entire experience was nothing short of breathtaking, thanks to the exceptional team dedicated to making our day memorable.

Samantha, one of the event coordinators, greeted us with genuine enthusiasm, making us feel immediately welcomed and at home. Her attention to detail and personal touch ensured that every aspect of our event was tailored to our preferences—her kindness and professionalism were refreshing and made all the difference.

Sal, the sound and lighting expert, took our event to the next level. He was attentive to our needs, ensuring the ambiance was just right. The music filled the space beautifully, and the lighting created an enchanting atmosphere that impressed all our guests. It was clear that Sal is a true professional, and his work certainly did not go unnoticed.

Now, let's talk about the food! Every bite was a delight—each dish was prepared with care, showcasing the culinary expertise of the Florentine Gardens team. Our guests were raving about the menu choices, and we felt proud to serve such top-of-the-line offerings at our celebration. The quality and presentation of the food exceeded our expectations, making dining an unforgettable part of the experience.

Overall, the service at Florentine Gardens is simply exceptional. Every member of the team went above and beyond to ensure that everything flowed smoothly throughout the event. My wife and I left feeling more than satisfied; we were truly in awe of how well everything came together.

Florentine Gardens is not just a venue; it’s a magical space where memories are made and cherished. We cannot recommend it highly enough for anyone looking to host a remarkable event. Thank you, Florentine Gardens, for giving us a day we will remember for the rest of our lives!”

“Macaluso's is such an amazing venue! Before I even talk about the amazing staff let me tell you about their INCREDIBLE food. Whenever I see that I am photographing a wedding at Macaluso's I make sure to not eat any breakfast or snacks so I can fully enjoy their food!As a wedding photographer it is super important for me to work at a venue that has scenic areas for great photos of my couples and Macaluso's does not disappoint in that category at all (see attached photos). In addition, their staff is super friendly and willing to help with anything!I can't recommend this venue enough if you are looking for a great place to host your wedding or event!”

“The venue is beautiful and clean. Max & Liliya responded to all my questions and were extremely helpful throughout the planning process. The day of the party was so smooth and worry free. Max and his staff took care of everything. The servers and the bartender were great! Our daughter’s Sweet 16 was amazing ! Our next event will definitely be here! Thank you!”

“If you have never been to the Seasons you are missing out! The seasons is one of the top venues in New Jersey and an absolute treat to photograph a wedding at!As a wedding photographer it is super important to work at a venue that has scenic opportunities so that may couples don't have to find an outside park somewhere to do their photos. The Seasons does not disappoint with that! They have beautiful waterfalls, a gorgeous garden area and an amazing indoor staircase! (see attached photos)Finally lets talk about their AMAZING cocktail hour! It's honestly the thing i look forward to the most when working here!I highly recommend this venue for anyone on the fence looking to book it!”

“I HIGHLY recommend RAIN. My daughter’s bat mitzvah was epic. Scott and Miriam covered every detail making it so easy and simple to throw a smooth and fun event. The DJ, emcee and dancers were incredible and had the whole crowd - from ages 2 to 52 dancing for the Bat Mitzvah girl- they just get it! And the space is so easy to customize to your own look. The parking made it very easy for our city friends to pull up and have a blast!! Thank you so much Scott and Miriam!!”

“The rockleigh is an amazing venue ! Beautiful ballroom great staff amazing food. And vendor friendly. Zara & Jeff are awesome to work with. Can’t wait to do more events !”

“From start to finish, we received amazing service. We booked the venue for our wedding and had about seven months to plan everything. Vikki was outstanding, from showing us the venue to overseeing every detail on the night of the wedding. We were able to email and call and receive quick feedback throughout the planning process. As the wedding approached, we met with Vikki to confirm final details, and she provided excellent recommendations and guidelines. The day of the wedding went smoothly, and all of our guests raved about the delicious food. I highly recommend this venue for any occasion.”

“The Flavor Labs got it all covered! We celebrated my 6yo daughter's birthday party at the Flavor Labs in Norwood and that was amazing! The kids absolutely loved it. The Flavor Labs team handled everything from start to finish — we just had to show up. Our instructor Julie was outstanding and handled the excited kids with ease!”

“My son had his 9th birthday at NVSA. He and his friends had a great time playing basketball and kickball! All the staff were really friendly and accommodating. Definitely recommend this place for birthday events!”

“Beautiful coworking space!! I've really enjoyed my time at HudCo - the space design is beautiful and there are plenty of working options whether you prefer quiet/isolation or more open concept design. I also really enjoyed the number of pop-up shops throughout the month - there were always new and interesting vendors that kept the space fresh. Definitely recommend you check it out!”

“Invited to a sweet sixteen at the Royal Manor gorgeous place for all occasions-valet parking always great, greetings by a lovely young lady at the door. The room was very nice , bathrooms very clean (important). Bartender made amazing drinks -appetizers very good tender steak and chicken skewers delicious-fried shrimps/ cocktail shrimps amazing. Buffet style dinner was so good beef and broccoli-tilapia-tortellini with white sauce-a château Brion service-Green salads. The server's were so sweet and attentive and they were young but so professional love that. So looking for an amazing venue try this one for sure.”

“The Ridgewood Women's club is an absolutely beautiful venue that I highly recommend to anyone. My wife and I threw a baby shower the size of a wedding there (140-150 people), and the event space was perfect for it. The women who run the club are professional, responsive and helpful. We had a wonderful experience and we can't thank them enough. Everyone should look into this place for a large event. You won't be disappointed.”

“Without any hesitation at all, I HIGHLY recommend Powerhouse Studios Paramus. Lisa Messing and staff covered everything to ensure a perfect party. Emcee Devon kept the party going all night long and the kids were beyond happy. Not only was the place amazing and the food incredible, but the staff happen to be some of the kindest people. I LOVED working with Powerhouse and I got many comments from my guests on how incredible the space and food is. I give them an A+++”

“I have 2 separate positive reviews about this place:1) As a drop in play gym, it's phenomenal. If you're local, it's just such a nice low sensory place (not too loud / packed) for kids to come, swing, play with toys, etc, and the staff are always great. It never feels overwhelming, but there are so many things to do!2) We had a birthday party for our kid here recently and it was AMAZING. Like, I truly cannot emphasize just how on top of it Kim (the owner) and her assistant were. In terms of transitioning to different times of the party, setting up food, handling setup and break down, etc. We are already talking about just doing the next birthday here again because it was so easy and frictionless!”

“The staff are very professional, accommodating and helpful. The hall is well kept and maintained. Very clean! Loved the bar and the color changing lights. Highly recommended ?”

“We took our 3 year old daughter here for her first haircut and it was a great experience! Souzan was so patient with her and explained everything she was doing so that our daughter was comfortable. I would highly recommend her for a first haircut. The shop is also adorable.”

“Did my wedding reception here. If it wasn’t for Esha, I don’t think I would have rated them so highly. There were a few important things that almost fell through the cracks in terms of undiscussed fees, decorations, cutlery, and parking. Esha was quick to sort it out when my now husband and I brought it up. Esha communicated effectively via phone, email, and written statements so there were no discrepancies. She also reminded us of what was to come since we didn’t always understand the plan/details. The actual event turned out beautiful. The waiters were incredibly helpful and accommodating with serving, esp when our own caterer we hired was almost 2 hours late . Our guests loved the venue, the space to dance around, and the valet parking. Thank you Esha for making our special event wonderful towards the end.”

“This venue was amazing! The place is very clean. The waiters were very friendly. The chefs too and the food is delicious. Overall this place was absolutely amazing with great service.”

“My husband and I were here for our friends' wedding. Well-kept grounds, parking in the back...very nice overall. Everyone who worked there were very helpful. The ladies who brought out the food were so sweet; my husband, me, and the man-of-honor were having such a wonderful conversation outside that we missed dinner being served. We asked if there was any food left- there still was a lot- and the ladies made us plates, so we could still eat (they even asked if we wanted to take some home when there were still leftovers at the end of the night). Overall, it was a nice venue for a wedding (roughly 45 people).”

“I can't say enough good things about Hudson Loft & the caterer On the Marc. The team we worked with to coordinate was great; they were so easy to work with. The event staff were truly incredible - super attentive, professional, and nice. Marc from On the Marc even called me afterwards to make sure everything went well. We got SO many compliments on the food and how incredible it was - (even from some friends and family that work in the industry and/or are harsh critics)! I can say from personal experience the custom cocktail was also delicious!! The wedding was absolutely beautiful from start to finish (with an incredible sunset/golden hour) and was absolutely perfect which is in large part due to the team at Hudson Loft & On the Marc. We couldn’t have asked for a better or more fun wedding!!”

“It was easy to get into for me being handicapped. Employees were polite & friendly. Nice screen. Unfortunately seats were difficult to get out of AND coming out they locked the main doors & sign said exit side door where there was no way a handicapped person could walk or be pushed in wheelchair. That said, we may give it another shot.”

“I went for a short business trip. The room was clean it was great having continental breakfast. It’s on a busy route so it can be loud otherwise everything was good.”

“The same crowded yesterday couldn't believe how many people were bowling. Music loud don't know why people can't talk over the noise thought that this is a social able event. Yes, they had problems on the alley again.”

“Excellent venue for kid parties! Very clean and fun for kids. The staff was great and the owner made planning an event for 29 kids so easy! Literally everything is taken care of for you, including pizza, cake, & favors. Pricing was also very fair. Highly Recommend!!!”
