Crossed Keys Estate

Literally the venue of our dreams. Crossed Keys Estate is the most stunning unreal venue - we would pick it over and over again. All of our guests haven’t stopped raving about how beautiful it is and how incredible the food was!!! The team is so hands on and made us feel so amazing and relaxed the day of - I didn’t hire a wedding planner and thought I would be so stressed but our wedding coordinator (shout out to Katrina!) handled it all for us. Also having the florals in-house not only made our lives easier but I’ve never seen such beautiful flowers at a wedding before in my life - Jessica and the floral team took my vision and brought it to life. The only thing we couldn’t control was the weather but our “backup” plan of having the ceremony indoors was beyond stunning and our guests had no idea it was even a 2nd option. Thank you Kyle for managing that (& me lol) so well. We will forever be grateful for this venue and team!!!! If you’re considering CKE as your wedding venue - book it!!!

Crossed Keys is hands down the best wedding venue I have ever been to. Me and my wife got married almost 2 weeks ago and everything was so beautiful. They executed our vision perfectly. They were always on call no matter the time or day. The staff was very professional and very very very welcoming. If we ever do anything again in the marriage world we definitely going back every time and we recommend everybody to get married here!

It’s been about two weeks since I had my wedding at crossed keys and I still can’t get over how absolutely perfect the night was. People are STILL talking about how beautiful the flowers were, how delicious the food was, and how gorgeous the venue is. The attention to detail throughout the entire day and into the evening was incredible. The entire team at crossed keys was so helpful and I trusted them completely to help make my vision come true!!! I’ll be reliving this night for a long time🤍 I seriously cannot recommend crossed keys enough!!!

From the moment we first visited The Crossed Keys Estate, we knew it was the perfect venue for our wedding. As someone who worked in a similar industry for over a decade, I was looking for a particular atmosphere. Every detail, from the meticulously decorated main building to the classic charm of the playhouse, and the beautiful grounds and gardens, exceeded our expectations. The entire experience was seamless and stress-free. We were able to drop off all our decorations and have them expertly arranged without any issues. The staff and the family running the venue are incredibly kind and professional. The florist’s creations were nothing short of magical—each arrangement was a stunning and perfectly executed my vision. A standout aspect was the wedding coordinator provided by the venue. She ensured that everything for the day went smoothly and did an amazing job, all while being incredibly sweet and attentive. Her efforts truly made the day effortless and enjoyable. Additionally, we were delighted to have our own dedicated server who treated us like VIPs. She made sure we never went a moment without a drink or anything we needed, adding a special touch to our experience. The Catering/Chef was another highlight, receiving countless compliments from our guests. It’s rare for wedding food—often prepared for 150+ people—to be so outstanding, but The Crossed Keys Estate clearly knows how to deliver. I mean it when I saw people are still talking about the food! The financial manager was also exceptional, being very on top of everything and ensuring we were aware of every detail. There were no surprises or unexpected bills—everything was transparent and handled with integrity. Every moment of our day was effortless and enjoyable, thanks to the thoughtful attention of the staff. They ensured we didn’t miss out on the cocktail hour while we were doing photos, even bringing us cocktails and appetizers. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how beautiful the venue was and how much they enjoyed themselves, with many going out of their way to commend the staff. The owners' personal touch and dedication to making our day special were evident throughout, and they truly made our wedding day unforgettable. Thank you to everyone at The Crossed Keys Estate for making our day so memorable! Paige & Justin

My daughter just got married at the Cross Keys Estate in Andover NJ and it was magical! The staff was amazing from the planning to the “day of”, thanks to the coordinator Katrina, Kyle and Katherine. The floral arrangements, bouquets, boutonnieres, and interior design were all spectacular. Jessica is an artist that brought our vision to life better then we even imagined! The area to get ready was like a fairytale with more than enough space for a large wedding party to spread out and get ready. The flower garden with stone structure back drop made for an enchanting ceremony. The cocktail space is breathtaking, and the food was like nothing I have ever had at any wedding I’ve been to. All the guests were blown away with the chooses and presentation. The reception area looked so beautiful, and we used their preferred vendor list for the band (iEntertainment, The Helm) and photographer. Both of which knocked it out of the park. They knew the venue and were so professional. The most impressive was the food at the reception as well as the wait staff that tended to our every need. At most weddings the cocktail food is always better than the dinner, however this was not the case. The main courses were received by all to be amazing. Cross Keys Estates has a farmhouse vibe with a special modern elegance.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience getting married at Crossed Keys Estate – from the moment we walked onto the property and met Katherine we were sold. Their professionalism, their kindness, the space, the food – everything about it is top notch and truly the best I’ve experienced in all the weddings I’ve attended as a guest. There was no moment on wedding day that I had to worry about or handle anything – as a bride, I had truly the most relaxing day with everything taken care of. I was brought beverages, checked on consistently throughout the day – I knew I was in the absolute best hands, and wow was I right. I’ve only received rave reviews from the guests – this space was one of the only we saw that has a space equally as gorgeous outside and inside (a consideration if you’d like an outdoor ceremony). The florals, the food, the service – everything was TOP NOTCH. You can tell the whole Rodriguez family really loves what they do – do not hesitate to have your wedding at Crossed Keys Estate, you will absolutely not regret a single moment!

Our wedding at CKE absolutely exceeded our expectations! We were blown away by how organized, accommodating and helpful the entire staff and team at CKE was from start to finish. Not only was the day a dream come true but the planning process was made seamless and stress free working with our dedicated coordinator, Katrina. Katrina helped keep us extremely organized and well informed about every detail and timeline as well as answered every single big and small question we had right away. The team never left us guessing or scrambling, they had an answer for everything! The wedding day itself was spectacular and notably Katherine, Kyle, Katrina, Danielle & team were involved in every minute to help facilitate a smooth and organized day. Our guests are still raving about the food (especially the hors d'oeuvres) and service and were blown away by the venue itself. Jessica and the flower team did a phenomenal job making our vision come to life with the beautiful flowers and decor. It was picture perfect! Not one detail went unattended to or unnoticed by the team. The service team was so friendly and helpful, drinks were poured quickly and efficiently - our guests had the most amazing time! We are beyond grateful to have had our wedding at Crossed Keys and wish we could do it over again and again!

Crossed Keys Estate went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was exactly what we wanted - and more. The staff was generous, accommodating, solutions-focused and totally trustworthy. They followed our vision and kept us in the loop every step of the way. Jessica was the perfect day-of coordinator/leader who made us all feel totally calm and as if every detail was taken care of, and it was! I could not recommend this venue more to all potential couples. You will not be disappointed one bit, I can guarantee it. Plus, the food is the best you'll get at a large-scale venue. Our guests talked about the food for weeks after!

We had our wedding at Crossed Keys Estate at the end of May and it was just as close to perfect as I could have imagined - really in such large part to the helpful and professional staff at Crossed Keys who went above and beyond in multiple areas. For example, we were hoping for an outdoor wedding and the staff held out until the very last minute until unfortunately we had to move the wedding inside due to rain, however the quick turnaround and the absolutely stunning indoor ceremony had our guests thinking that indoors was the plan all along. They also helped us to find solutions to new problems that popped up, like with our wedding favors since we had thrifted champagne glasses, ultimately hand cleaning them at the end so that guests could take ones left behind on the way out. Our wedding coordinator Katrina was the utmost professional, calm and collected in the weeks leading up the wedding, answering all of our questions, and was always at our side day of asking what she could to do make our night even better. We got rave reviews from our families and friends (who are definitely foodies) about the incredible food - both cocktail hour and the dinners which they were served perfectly cooked fish and steak - very impressive for 180 people! Everyone was thoroughly impressed by the gorgeous grounds and stunning spaces as well. The florals from Jessica were out of a fairytale and were exactly as we had always imagined. I would easily recommend Crossed Keys to anyone that wants a special night that is handled with care by professionals who actually care about your day.

We only have amazing things to say about CKE! We both fell in love with the venue as soon as we walked in for our tour in March of 2023. When we first toured, the Conservatory was still being built. We loved being able to watch it come together and transform. The entire CKE family helped us along the way. We both enjoyed the kickoff party in December where we were able to try so much food! Fast forward to our actual wedding day and it was flawless. We had a big wedding and it was important for us that no one felt cramped. Almost 225 people fit very comfortably in the farmhouse and in the ceremony space. Everyone is still saying it was one of the best weddings they have ever been to! Between the amazing food, the gardens, and the coolest windows you will ever see, Crossed Keys Estate will not disappoint!

Crossed Keys Estate is hands down the best venue! We had our wedding celebration held at this fabulous establishment and the team ensured that we had a seamless no stress day! From the attention to the support - we couldn't have asked for a better team to be with us especially for our special day!

Crossed Keys Estate exceeded all our expectations and more! As a family-owned and operated venue, every aspect, from operations to floral arrangements to food, exudes a heartfelt touch. From the moment we stepped foot inside, we knew it was the one for us, and we couldn't be happier with our decision. The food was exquisite, the decor breathtaking, with candlelit ambiance creating a romantic atmosphere that perfectly matched the vision we had in mind. The team at Crossed Keys Estate was incredibly accommodating, allowing us to customize every detail to perfection. Throughout the night, every staff member doted on us, ensuring we felt taken care of at every turn. A special shoutout goes to our wedding coordinator, Kiersten, who was a true godsend. From months before the wedding to the final moments of our special day, she was by our side, answering every question, rallying for us, and ensuring our vision came to life flawlessly. Kiersten's meticulous attention to detail and efficiency ensured that nothing was overlooked; she coordinated everything to perfection, seamlessly following our timeline and making every requested detail a reality. We are forever grateful to the entire team at Crossed Keys Estate for making our dream wedding a reality.

From the very beginning, the experience was nothing short of seamless and delightful, thanks to the exceptional trio - Katherine, Jess, and Kyle - who orchestrated every detail with unparalleled skill and grace. The team radiated warmth and professionalism from the first moment. Their keen attention to our desires and her commitment to making our vision a reality set the stage for what would become the wedding we wanted. Katherine's unwavering dedication and accommodating nature turned what could have been a stressful planning process into a joyous journey. Jess, the visionary florist, deserves a standing ovation for bringing our dreams to life in the most exquisite fashion. With an innate ability to understand our vision, Jess curated floral arrangements that were exactly what we wanted. The reception, ceremony, and cocktail hour were adorned with flowers and decor that not only met our expectations but surpassed them. Kyle, the behind-the-scenes whiz, ensured that every logistical aspect unfolded seamlessly. His organizational prowess and calm demeanor were invaluable, allowing us to savor each moment without the burden of stress. Kyle's commitment to excellence, coupled with a genuine understanding of our needs, was a pillar of support throughout the entire process. What sets Crossed Keys apart is not just its stunning aesthetics but the team's unwavering commitment to accommodating their clients. The level of understanding and flexibility displayed by Katherine, Jess, and Kyle was nothing short of extraordinary. They navigated through our requests and changes with grace, turning potential challenges into opportunities to enhance our experience. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful. From the moment our guests arrived until the last dance, every corner of Crossed Keys radiated a timeless charm that perfectly complemented the significance of the day. To Katherine, Jess, Kyle, and the entire team at Cross Keys Estate, our deepest gratitude for orchestrating a day that exceeded our wildest dreams. Your collaborative spirit, attention to detail, and unwavering commitment to excellence have left an indelible mark on our hearts. If you're seeking a venue where your vision comes to life with a team that feels like family, look no further than the exceptional Crossed Keys. Our wedding day was nothing short of perfection, and it's all thanks to you!!

The best day ever!!!! The team at CKE made my wedding day absolutely perfect and stress free. The process was seamless from start to finish. They responded to all of my questions and concerns in a timely manner and were so much help in the planning process. Everyone I interacted with was so professional, kind, easy to work with, and helpful. I have received so many compliments on the abundant cocktail hour, friendly service, and delicious food. It was seriously sooooo good! The after-party empanadas were a hit too. The quality of everything was just spectacular. We were so well attended to- never an empty cup or plate! I could not recommend CKE enough!! So thankful for them for making our dream day come to life!

My husband and I got married at Crossed Keys in October 2023 and it was a dream. The moment I stumbled across CKE online, I knew it was the place we would get married, and it exceeded all expectations. The team has so much pride in the venue and everything from the grounds, to the getting ready areas, to the cocktail and reception areas are all kept meticulously. It is such a beautiful venue. We loved that it is a family owned venue, and the team is so welcoming. The food was so delicious and from start to finish we were taken care of. The team is with you throughout the planning process and keeps a very organized timeline to make sure you are on track. Our guests had so many compliments to say about the venue and the day. I can not recommend Crossed Keys enough!

We had our wedding at Crossed Keys Estate 11/11/2023 and it was absolute perfection! We loved that this venue is family-owned and run, and only does one wedding a day-making it a truly bespoke wedding experience. The venue is modern and beautiful, and accommodated our 250 guests perfectly with plenty of space. The food exceeded our expectations, and we had a food-loving crowd with very high standards! The Lechon station is a literal must- people will not stop talking about how delicious it was, and being Puerto Rican and Cuban, it quite literally is not a party without this dish! The after-party empanadas were also a crowd favorite. The flowers and decor were breathtaking, Jessica was so wonderful to work with, accommodating our budget and any requests, and her work is truly outstanding. The day went seamlessly, and Katherine, Kyle, and Kiersten really made sure we had everything we wanted and that everything ran smoothly. I really can’t recommend CKE enough, we are so grateful for the entire team for making our day so perfect!

Our wedding at CKE in June of 2023 was one of the most magical days of our lives! Their team is an incredible group that really do their best to make your vision come to life. Our coordinator Katrina was so kind, gentle, and supportive… Jess & her floral team perfectly crafted the image I brought to them… the food was phenomenal and the day-of staff was wonderful. We have and will continue to recommend CKE to any and everyone we can! If you are considering a wedding here you will not regret it. The place itself is a vision… any and everything you do to customize your day just gives it extra beauty! Thank you Katherine, Kyle, Jess, Katrina and the whole team!

I do not know where to start complimenting Crossed Keys. Absolutely everything was perfect not just the day of the wedding but everything leading up to it. Planning with Crossed Keys was every bride's dream. I barely had to think about anything and they were communicative, accommodating and extremely dependable. The venue is magical, I had multiple guests saying it felt like a Disney wedding from the setting and that it was the best wedding they have ever been to. The food was amazing, no one could get enough. We are three months later and my guests are still talking about it and asking about specific dishes from cocktail hour so they could try and recreate it. The service staff was so incredibly kind and our sweetheart table constantly had food and drinks on it. The getting ready space is a makeup artists dream and we couldn't stop finding new spots to take pictures in. I mean everything was perfect, moved like clockwork and stress free. To say this team is professional would be the understatement of the century, they. are. magical. I can't say thank you enough or praise them enough, do yourself a favor and have your wedding here - you won't regret it!

I’ll start with WOW. There are literally no words that can describe how amazing and perfect my wedding day was all thanks to the CKE team. Jess, Kyle, Katrina, Sam and the rest of the team really blew me away. My wedding day ended up being a cold, rainy September day, and I was honestly heartbroken. The grounds of the estate are unbelievably beautiful, and it’s all I pictured for my wedding day. When I had to face the facts that my ceremony would be inside, I was really having a hard time picturing it and coming to terms with it, even though there was nothing I could do. I spoke about a rain plan with Jess the day before, and she put me at ease. When it was time to walk down the aisle and I saw the indoor ceremony set up, I literally cried. It was incredible. I knew it would be of course, the inside of CKE is just as beautiful as the outside, but when all you can picture for 2 years is getting married in front of the stone cottage, it’s hard to think about it in any other way. Beyond that, we did the first look and family pictures in the conservatory and I was literally blown away by the pictures! Once I was inside, I didn’t even think about the outside anymore. Everything was so stunning, I still don’t even have words. The conservatory, the flowers, the tables, the sweetheart table, the ceremony arch, I mean every part was just breathtaking, I still tear up when I think about it! I am forever grateful to the CKE team for turning my wedding dreams into a reality, calming my very anxious wedding nerves, and just making our wedding day the absolute best, most beautiful day of our lives. It’s been a few months since our wedding, and our guests are STILL raving about the food and how absolutely stunning CKE was! Everyone said it was the best food at a wedding that they’ve had, and they wish they could go back to eat! My one regret is that I didn’t get to try all the food because I was so preoccupied! All in all, I would get married at CKE over and over again if I could. Everything about our experience was extraordinary and I still cannot get over how beautiful of a venue it is. Thank you to all the staff and everyone who was involved in our wedding day. We are forever grateful.

There are not enough words to describe our unforgettable experience at Crossed Keys Estate. I wish I could give their team more than 5 stars! When we started our wedding planning process a few years back I was feeling discouraged. My now husband and I knew we wanted our wedding to be local, but I had a specific vision in mind that I felt would be hard to find in NJ. Most NJ venues had the same ballroom vibe that I was not going for. I wanted a space that if the weather was bad and we had to move our reception inside, I would not be upset. I also wanted to be able to customize a space without clashing with the venue's décor. INSERT CROSSED KEYS ESTATE! As soon as I pulled up to the property for our tour I knew I had to book this venue. Floor to ceiling windows, property that feels like you're in a fairytale, hardwood floors (YES, most venues in NJ have carpet that typically has an outdated design that I felt would clash with my aesthetic), and the most incredible glass conservatory that I did not even know their team was building at the time. I was so lucky that there was 1 free Saturday left for a 2023 October wedding (dreamt of an outdoor Autumn wedding since I was a little girl). From the day we booked Crossed Keys to the days following our wedding the service has been impeccable. Planning a wedding can be extremely stressful, but working with the Crossed Keys team was the best part. They made planning so seamless! I have to give a special shout out to their floral team for making my untraditional wedding visions come to life. When I saw the space for the first time on our wedding day I was fighting back tears. The attention to detail was ON POINT. The amount of effort their team put in to making my Pinterest dreams come to life made our day even that more special. I am forever thankful and grateful to have had the pleasure of working with the Crossed Keys team and to have been able to share this special place with family and friends on our wedding day. The day after our wedding we were inundated with messages from our guests expressing how this was the best wedding they've been to. From the jaw dropping space/property, friendly & white glove staff/service, to the farm to table food and drinks (which to be honest is not always the best at weddings) everything exceeded expectations of what I thought our wedding day would be like. I wish we could do it all over again! So to all the future brides who are considering Crossed Keys Estate, DO IT. You will not regret booking their team for one of the most special days of your life!!!! -More than thankful The Bogliolis (Gina, Scott & our dog Auggie who yes, was the flower girl at our wedding another plus of booking Crossed Keys!!!!!!!!)

There are no words... this tam is a powerhouse! Fantastic to work with since the day we met them - but to say that they exceeded our hopes and dreams would be an understatement. Melissa and Michael's wedding was perfect! The flowers were so exquisite - the chuppa was the most gorgeous we have ever seen - from the aisle to the magnificent tables, the colors and composition were breathtaking. Melissa's dream come true! The entire staff did an impeccable job. Delicious fantastic and beautiful too. The cocktail hour was one delectable taste after another. Marvelous service from everyone throughout the evening. Gracious, elegant, welcoming. Wonderful pacing - although it all goes too fast! The Farmhouse and Conservatory looked like a wonderland - our guests were completely wowed! It is the most special venue and created a treasured experience.

Crossed Keys Estate was a dream come true for my husband and I. From the moment we stepped foot inside the venue and got a warm welcoming tour from the owner Katherine, we knew it was the place we wanted to get married. The venue is a perfect blend of rustic farmhouse and modern luxury (especially with the new conservatory!) Planning a wedding is hard enough, and planning a multicultural wedding with 2 ceremonies in 1 day proved to have its challenges, but the entire CKE staff made our wedding planning super easy from start to finish and stress free. Katherine, Danielle & Jessica were super responsive to all of our emails and really took the time to ensure we were getting everything we wanted for our big day. The flowers and decor came out GORGEOUS, Jessica and her team really captured my vision and I still can’t get over how beautiful all of our flowers looked. I honestly don’t think there is anything the CKE team can’t do, they value family and traditions and we could not be more grateful to have worked with the entire team. Our whole day went absolutely perfect, even with the rain, our indoor ceremonies were absolutely stunning and we could not have asked for a more perfect October wedding day. Our guests cannot stop raving about how beautiful & unique the venue is, and how delicious the food was. From cocktail hour, to dinner & our late night treat of apple cider donuts & pies, everything we ate was amazing (we also loved the lobster rolls!) I really wish we had time to eat more, haha! The entire staff and everyone we interacted with were super friendly & professional and I can truly go on and on about how wonderful our experience was. From the bottom of our hearts we can’t thank CKE enough for making our wedding day absolutely magical.🤍

We booked Crossed keys the day we visited the venue. I looked at the farmhouse and I loved it. Our wedding was truly the best day of my life. Our wedding coordinator, Katrina is the best. We had about 50 email exchanges and she was so patient and thoughtful. Every guest was amazed by how good the food were. And the flowers and the decorations went so well with the venue. Everything was just perfect. Choosing crossed keys was the best decision we made for our wedding.

Where to begin???…. After looking for over a year for a wedding venue and over 13 venues we knew from the second we saw crossed keys that it was truly the one. Mike and I got married on Thursday September 21st, 2023 and let me just tell you that the sun gods were shining down that day with the weather!! Let us start out with speaking our gratitude on how SPECTACULAR the people are and who truly make this place what it is. Working with Catherine, Jess, Kirsten & Danielle has been nothing but pleasurable, you guys are the salt of the earth. thank you for making our wedding day everything we ever hoped, dreamed and prayed about. Jess made our flowers come a reality. I had a vision and she created it with her amazing ability and we are soooo grateful for you. And Catherine, our guests are still talking about how you are truly the loveliest owner. Taking care of all of our guests like they were your own. & Kirsten has been nothing but amazing! Always receptive to my emails and literally didn’t miss a beat the day of the wedding. The food was absolutely marvelous and our guests are still ranting and raving about how each dish is prepared with such love. What an incredible captivating space crossed keys I has to offer and we will never stop talking about this day. Crossed keys makes you feel like you are home and we Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making us truly feel like family!! we love you all so much!

Everything was top-of-the-line but oh so personal. The grounds and buildings are breathtaking, the professionalism is unmatched, and working with a family business makes it feel all the more special. We really appreciated our coordinator Katrina for making sure we were 100% taken care of all day. If you're looking for a rustic vibe with modern accommodations, The Crossed Keys Estate is for you!

I am unsure where to even beginning because from the start of this entire process Crossed Keys Estate has been so amazing. The tour of the venue was informative and it made us realize that this was our dream venue. The staff at the Crossed Keys Estate made wedding planning so easy. They provide you with an in-depth spreadsheet and a wedding coordinator to answer all your last minute questions. All staff members were quick at responding to all questions/emails. I loved that everything was at the venue from the catering to the flowers, which made everything so easy. Jessica, the florist was so amazing to work with and she really captured all my ideas in my head and was able to execute it flawlessly. Our wedding day was beautiful and filled with some much love thanks to this amazing venue and their team. They worked seamless with my other vendors and took care of everything for us. I wish I could give this venue 1000/10 stars because it was that amazing. Food: 1000/10 Flowers & Design: 1000000/10 Wedding Coordinator: 1000/10 Drinks: 10000/10 Vibes: 100000000000/10

My husband & I got married at Crossed Keys just about 2 months ago now, and we have said to each other so many times since how happy we are with our choice in venue. The number of guests who told us how amazing the food was and how beautiful the place was, made us so happy! We even had a few guests tell us that it was the best wedding that they'd ever been to. Crossed Keys had every detail down - even the small ones. The in-house florist was amazing, she totally got our vision. Our wedding coordinators were great! The food and staff was perfect. We can't recommend Crossed Keys enough, and hope to attend a wedding there as guests ourselves one day!

We would recommend Crossed Keys Estate a million times over if we could. This family run business makes you feel like you are a part of their own. We felt so taken care of and everything was absolutely SEAMLESS. The venue is STUNNING and guests were raving about how amazing the food was. The CKE team is so organized and detail oriented. Everything went so smoothly (even when we had multiple guest changes last minute). This was the most magical day of our lives and CKE was a big part of that magic.

We couldn't have been happier with our entire experience at Crossed Keys. As soon as we saw the venue last summer, my now husband and I fell in love with it. The space is truly jaw dropping - with the beautifully manicured gardens as a setting for the ceremony, and the stunning farmhouse. We had seen a few other venues that were just far too....rustic. Crossed Keys gives you the feeling of a farmhouse, but with luxury. Not to mention the new Conservatory for cocktail hour and the afterparty. The space couldn't have been more perfect! And the staff as well. We worked with Kyle, Katherine and Karina and they were all incredibly responsive during the planning process, and so helpful and attentive the day of our wedding. It couldn't have gone more smoothly. The food at both cocktail hour and the reception was delicious - our guests really raved about it! Highly recommend this incredible venue.

I can start with the easy things that virtually every guest commented on once the wedding was over... the venue is incredible, the food is notably amazing, and the staff was ever-present and extremely attentive. Outside of that, it's tough to fully express the benefit/impact on the wedding planning process of having an authentically family run business guide you through every step of the way. The Crossed Keys family looks to ensure you are taken care of at every turn because it truly means that much to them. And this sentiment successfully permeates through the entire staff, from the owners to the coordinators to the servers and bartenders. Everyone executes as if they have a personal stake in the success of the event, from start to finish. There's simply so much that can be said but it's all positive. It is a true end-to-end experience with the CKE team and the final result is purely magical.

It has been a little over a month since my husband and I were married at this magical place. I could spend all day talking about the natural beauty of the grounds, the perfect balance of contemporary and classic aesthetic of the farmhouse and conservatory, the stunning floral arrangements and the DELICIOUS food...but what really did it for me was the staff. Each member of the CKE team is not only extremely talented, but made us feel like family. I started listing examples and realized it would have been a novel by the time I was finished...so I will keep it short and sweet. They go above and beyond, thinking of every detail that will help make you feel special. From warm hugs to big welcoming smiles, these beautiful people are the heart and soul of this place. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank the CKE for making the most memorable day of our lives thus far, absolute magic.

Crossed Keys Estate is the absolute best! The entire experience was a dream come true from start to finish. Food, flowers, service, everything was flawless. We cannot recommend them enough. Our wedding truly exceeded expectations.

From the moment I found Crossed Keys Estate I knew this was where I wanted to get married and there was no doubt in my mind that I would have my dream wedding here, and oh man was I right! My husband and I got married on September 23, 2022, and it was an absolute dream! From the beautiful grounds to the amazing food and to the wonderful people that work there. Everyone was so warm and friendly and so attentive to detail. Jessica and her team are literally amazing, what I had envisioned for my wedding day in regard to floral/décor and overall the feel of the day, not only did they bring that vision to life but it was even better than what I had imagined! Truly everything came out so beautiful! Our day of coordinator Katrina was also amazing. She was so sweet and so responsive from day one. The day of, she made sure everything was running smoothly and even when we had a minor hiccup due to a lot of traffic which was out of anyone’s control, she made sure to communicate with us and calm my nerves and just assure me that everything will be ok. Overall, everyone from the CKE team were great and a pleasure to work with! Family and friends are still raving about how beautiful everything was and how good the food was! Thank you for making our day so special!

Crossed Keys Estate was our dream venue and boy do they know how to throw a wedding! From the very beginning when we saw the venue in January of 2021, we fell in love with the grounds and their new Farmhouse. It didn't take long after we started to have our wedding meetings, that we fell in love with Katherine and the rest of her family. They truly captured every small detail from our meetings and made it happen on September 16, 2022. They are such an amazing family to work with and really treat you like family throughout the entire process. We are over the moon with how everything went! Our smiles in our wedding photos say it all :)

Crossed Keys Estate is a dream wedding venue. From beginning to end everything was top notch. They helped bring our vision to life and I am so thankful. Our guests are still talking about it! The food is delicious, the staff is great and the grounds are out of this world! BOOK NOW.

There is not enough space allotted here to describe how wonderful our wedding experience with Crossed Keys was, just this past weekend on 9/17/22. The cohesive team led by Katherine Rodriquez, her husband Celso, and daughter & son-in-law, Jessica & Kyle, could not have done anything more to make our day special! The Estate is truly a hidden gem tucked away in Sussex County, & every effort is made to make it feel like YOUR home for the day - all while catering to the needs of wedding guests that for us, numbered close to 200. The grounds are well-maintained, the spacious area brought comfort - not crowding - for all involved, & the food & floral decor were not to be compared to any experienced before. This was our third child’s wedding, & the attention rendered by Katherine on wedding day (& before, as I requested some garden trimming due to this year’s drought!) was truly heartwarming. I have never before experienced such hands on treatment - from shortly after our morning arrival for hair/makeup sessions, right on through visits throughout the balance of the day, continuing up until our final moments of departure at the end of the night. Katherine’s personal touch was evident in details not often seen, but that left a lingering sense of caring: she made multiple stops to visit during our “getting ready” time to ask that all was well - & made a photography suggestion that was one of the most emotional moments of the day for me, a father-bride “first look” before the one with the groom! - then later personally delivered 2 plates of appetizers ( & beverage!) to this mother of the bride who was too busy socializing to visit the multiple stations (what a loss that would have been!), & helped enable transport of flowers to our cars at the end of the night. Her presence & concern for perfection was noted by our guests as well . Katherine is an Energizer bunny who is invaluable to every bride hoping for a perfect day! She was ably assisted by our “day of” coordinators, Katrina & Valerie, & Danielle in the office; each of these ladies also helped to make the day run smoothly. There are other details unique to Crossed Keys that also should be considered. Lunch is served to both the bridesmaids & groomsmen on the day of the wedding, at separate locations, an offering that makes for one less detail to plan - but is an important one for a long, busy day. Only one wedding each day takes place at this location, making it truly “your own” for this special time. There are so many spots for photo ops on the grounds that it’s hard to decide which to use! Reviews by our guests were beyond favorable for both the cocktail hour & dinner menus - & then there was dessert time! Highlights ranged from the German station serving “just like homemade” potato salad to the well-received fish tacos, delicious empanadas & bacon-wrapped scallops, a family favorite of lamb chops, & then came dinner time: portions of rib eye steak & chicken cutlet that were beyond ample, a ginger garlic sauce on salmon that was savored - & dessert that went far beyond just wedding cake & ice cream. Cannolis & German chocolate cake followed, & then it was time for s’mores by the fire pit, with milkshakes to wash them down! Perfect for our 7 grandchildren who attended - & felt comfortable enough to visit the bridal area upstairs for a brief recharge during reception time. Closing with compliments for Jessica’s floral skills; she knows her territory well, & brought the look we wanted!

My husband and I got married at Crossed Keys in May 2022 and it was the most perfect day. I remeber looking for a venue and when we went for our first walk through CKE blew us away. Not only was it breathtaking but the fact that it is a fmaily own busniess felt so special. From day one working with CKE was nice and smooth. Communication was great, with being an event planner I tend to be a bit picky but they answered all my questions, requests and were woderful. Especially for having to deal with me =]. On the day of the wedding we got beautiful weather, the grounds were beyond and the team was so attentive. Jessica and her team brough my vision to life and it was beyond what I imagined. The florals and tablescapes were jsut as I wanted them. Our guests are still raving about how beautiful the grounds are and how wonderful the food was. Thank you 1000x over to the CKE team for making our wedding day the perfect day. xxxx

My husband and I just got married at Crossed Keys Estate on August 20, 2022 and I was truly blown away. The venue, the staff, the food, the flowers, literally EVERYTHING was perfect. Katrina was simply magnificent in tolerating all of my questions and emails for the last year and a half. Katherine was amazing the day of our wedding and making sure everything was running smoothly. Jess, an absolute angel, took SUCH good care of us and our vision with florals and decor. Our friends and family could not stop telling us how much they loved the venue. If I could do this all over again I wouldn't change a thing. Crossed Keys Estate will ALWAYS hold a special place in my heart. Highly recommend forever!!

CKE was a dream come true for us. It was the one and only venue we looked at and immediately fell in love. The floral and decor team was remarkable and brought my "bright color" theme to life. The on-site coordinator was also outstanding. Great communication and follow up skills. We couldn't have been happier with how things turned out for our special day. Everything was beyond what I could have imagined. The outdoor ceremony in the Garden, to the beautiful cocktail hour in the tent was amazing and all the food was off the charts. Followed by the reception inside, all was incredible. Many of my friends mentioned they wanted to "get married again" just so they can have a wedding at CKE. It gave us full blown European/Farmhouse vibes. Just amazing!!! We are so appreciative and thankful for all this Team did for us. We will remember this day forever.

Crossed Keys truly made our dream wedding come true! Katherine, Jessica, and the entire were so wonderful and easy to work with, and made the day so seamless! I truly would not have changed a single thing about our wedding, and owe that to the amazing team and grounds at Crossed Keys Estate. Our guests were blown away by the venue and all that it offered, and we cannot thank you all enough!!

Having our wedding at Crossed Keys Estate was a dream come true. Everything was perfect and just how we imagined it would be and more. The outdoor ceremony area, the cocktail area under a lighted tent and the Farmhouse for the reception was amazing. The grounds were beautiful as the trees and flowers were covering the area. Jessica did a wonderful job with the florals. From our very first meeting, she understood our vision and what we wanted. She was so easy to work with and answered all of our questions. The colors and the way the florals came out was so beautiful. It definitely fit the feel of a spring wedding with the different shades of pink. Katrina was a great coordinator. She kept the wedding moving and even made sure we ate after the ceremony. She was very responsive to our needs and throughout the whole planning process, she was communicative and made sure we were organized. She was easy to talk to and gave helpful suggestions. Katherine was the first person we met at CKE when we toured the venue. She was really passionate about it being a family business and was enthusiastic when she spoke to us. She was also there on the day of our wedding to make sure everything went smoothly. The food was delicious!!!There were 8 passed hors-d'œuvres and 4 buffet stations including a charcuterie station at cocktail hour. The sit down dinner and cake/dessert were also really good. Everyone was well fed and did not walk away on an empty stomach. Our guests raved about the food, flowers, venue, and the staff. We truly appreciate everyone at CKE for their hard work and attention to detail in making this the best day of our lives!

I had the most perfect wedding at Crossed Keys two weeks ago! The grounds were breathtaking. The food was incredible. Jessica executed my vision for the decor/florals perfectly. All our guests have commented on how beautiful the whole day was. The entire planning process was super smooth and easy. You can tell they know what they're doing.

Choosing Crossed Keys Estate as our wedding venue was the best decision we could have made. And it was also the easiest! It was the first, and only, property we visited in September 2020. Upon meeting Kyle that day, learning about this family operated business, to touring the beautiful grounds, and seeing photos and reading testimonials from other couples... we knew immediately we wanted to get married there. We were finally married there last Friday night, and boy was it worth the 21 months we waited to do so. The entire day was a dream come true, and because we knew we were in such great hands we were able to fully enjoy it. The close communication and coordination leading up to our wedding day is a big reason for that. Our maitre d' Katrina thought of everything we would need to consider and decide on before the big day, and seamlessly coordinated it all for us. Brides and Grooms, it helps to pick a place that is a WEDDING VENUE first and foremost. You are their priority, and they find a way to make each client feel special and attended to. Most importantly, the venue provided all day access including spaces to get ready in and take photos, the ceremony space, the food and alcohol including our wedding cake, as well as the floral and event design services. In addition they gave us a list of local recommended vendors, several of which we used and fully surpassed our expectations. Once we arrived that morning and dropped off our decorations everything was handled for us by Katherine and Katrina. So we got to be present and enjoy every moment of getting ready with our friends and family in the beautiful Playhouse and Parlor spaces. The flow of the day was so perfect. The ceremony ran smoothly and after exchanging vows we floated effortlessly from the gardens, to the cocktail hour under the tent, to the reception in the modern farmhouse with both a natural ease and a building momentum. By the time our guests had devoured the cocktail hour stations and taken a million photos around the property they were ready to DANCE. And the newly constructed ballroom was ready for them - meticulously styled by Jessica's bright flower arrangements and hanging wisteria from the chandeliers. We dined and danced all night long. We've been to a lot of weddings, and we can say this food was some of the best! I'm still dreaming about the many courses we enjoyed, and the never ending flow of drinks. It made us happy to know that people enjoyed the food and space as much as we had. Lastly, the gardens and grounds are more beautiful than we could have imagined - photos of the property and its gorgeous ballroom somehow don't do it justice. It is magical, and the romantic English garden has you feeling like you are transported to another time. We can't say enough how much we loved our wedding day, and the responsibility Crossed Keys Estate had in that. It surpassed all our expectations. Huge thanks to the Rodriguez family for everything. It was the best day of our lives!

Crossed Keys Estate is literally the dream venue. From our first tour to the beginning of our planning process to the wedding day, the CKE team was always on point and provided us with the best experience possible throughout. The whole venue is gorgeous - from all the gardens to the getting ready space for the bridal party and the most gorgeous reception area we've ever seen. Also the food selection for cocktail hour and dinner - fantastic! The CKE team worked so well with all of our vendors and ensured we had the smoothest wedding day possible, letting us enjoy our wedding without any worries and just take in the day. Would totally recommend this venue to other friends and family and would love to return as a guest for another wedding some day!!

My husband and I got married at the Crossed Keys Estate in May 2022. It was absolutely our dream wedding venue and we are so lucky to have found it. The CKE team are true professionals. My best advice is to just trust them every step of the way because they know how to make the day run smoothly while feeling intimate & so so special. The spaces for the bridal party to get dressed are beautiful, the grounds are the perfect back drop for a romantic, natural ceremony + photos, and the reception hall is jaw dropping with the huge a-frame window. We really loved how it felt like we were getting three different venues in one as the day moved from the garden, to the tented patio, and then inside. Our guests could not stop raving about how beautiful the venue is but the real show stopper was the food! We heard from everyone how delicious cocktail hour, dinner and dessert was. My husband and I were busy running around most of the night and our biggest mistake was not eating enough during cocktail hour! There was a staff member following us around with a tray, but I made the mistake of being overwhelmed & not taking advantage of them. If I had one wish I wish that a sampler of the appetizers were placed on our table for us to try during dinner when we had a moment to sit down. We wish we could go back and relive this day, with this team, every weekend! Thank you to the entire Crossed Keys Teams for giving us a perfect wedding day and memories we will cherish forever!

I highly recommend Crossed Keys Estate for your wedding venue. I cannot say enough time how amazing the team was throughout our entire wedding process. Kyle was a huge help from the second we stepped foot onto the property for our tour. I think my husband spoke to him about 2 times a month from the second we booked our wedding which was a year in advance- he is one of the reasons we felt so good about booking here! Jessica, head of the floral/design team was a dream to work with. She took my vision and escalated it to heights I didn't know existed- I was in complete awe walking into the room on the day of my wedding. She answered every question and displayed kindness and patience throughout the whole process. We immediately fell in love with the look of the venue and the fact that it was family owned and run, but the team was really was won us over. I also haven't stopped getting texts about how amazing the food was since our wedding!!! Food was a HUGE deal for us so the fact that people are still raving about it make us so happy (butternut squash raviolis were the biggest hit!!). Again, I can't say enough good things- definitely have your wedding here and thank me later!

My husband and I got married at Crossed Keys in their Winter season, in March of 2022 in the new farmhouse. The farmhouse is absolutely gorgeous - the floor to ceiling back window makes for the most stunning backdrop offering incredible natural light and romance to the room. The team at Crossed Keys is great to work with, and is on top of every detail. The owner Katherine and our day coordinator Katrina were wonderful and extremely attentive to our needs during the entire wedding, making us feel at ease. The food was great as well, with many guests raving about cocktail hour and their entrees throughout the night. Lastly, Jessica and the floral team are absolutely outstanding – they nailed my not-so-easy creative vision of a springtime forest, whimsical wedding. The flowers were so gorgeous and unique, they were better than we could have ever imaged. We loved working with Crossed Keys and would not have changed one thing!

My husband & I had the pleasure of getting married at Crossed Keys Estate in Sept 2021 and had our dream wedding thanks to the CKE team! Their grounds are stunning and have so many beautiful backdrops for pictures throughout your day. The convenience of everything they offer was truly unmatched – with a venue providing everything from a dedicated space to get ready in to food & the cake all the way down to your flowers & décor! The outdoor ceremony followed by the reception in their brand-new farmhouse made for the most magical rustic meets modern wedding day.

We are so happy to have found the beautiful Crossed Keys Estate to hold our fall wedding this past October! The grounds are stunning, and there are so many special places on the property to enjoy. The new, well-appointed indoor Farmhouse is truly a beautiful addition to the outdoor space. I mention all of this because while we were so looking forward to holding our ceremony outside in the beautiful garden, it began raining a few hours before the ceremony, and we had to pivot to the indoor Farmhouse space. We were not disappointed – the staff showed their professionalism and agility in converting the indoor reception space for the ceremony and then back again in a seamless fashion. Most of our guests had no idea they were in the same space! We held the after-party at the venue under the heated tent and outdoor by the fire pit with smores and hot chocolate. They were also great at accommodating an outside cigar and whiskey bar hired for the after-party. It was perfect! A big shout out to Kyle, Jessica, Katherine, Katrina, Danielle, and the rest of the wonderful team at Crossed Keys. All the services provided, from the catering to the design to the coordination, were impeccable. The team accommodated all our requests, including our multiple signature cocktails and late-night bites at the after-party. They also made planning our wedding a dream as they offer many services on-premises and have a vetted list of vendors such as photographers and stylists. Our guests raved about the food and the venue, and we could not have been happier to celebrate our wedding at Crossed Keys!

A absolutely outstanding venue. Family owned....and it shows! Our daughter's wedding was perfect and Crossed Keys was attentive to all the details. Food, service, venue, decor, liquor and floral arrangements were all top shelf. If a rustic setting, outdoor views and beautiful new rustic farmhouse are what you are looking for then look no further. The CK family was responsive from beginning to end and so easy to work with. They made the bride, groom and parents a priority throughout the planning process and event. You will not be disappointed!

From the moment we visited Crosses Keys Estate we knew it was truly a special place. Katherine and her amazing team didn’t just treat us like clients, but like family from the moment we first set foot on the property. As a same-sex couple we could not have felt more comfortable knowing how much they genuinely supported the love that we shared. From its brand new beautifully structured farmhouse to the scenic estate grounds, our 9/25/21 wedding was everything we could have dreamed of and more! We were fortunate enough to not have to postpone our date, but throughout the pandemic they were fully transparent with realistic scenarios and handled our concerns with caution and care. Aside from picturesque perfection and the most hospitable team, the food is EXCEPTIONAL! We even asked for a personalized cocktail station that wasn’t listed on the menu and without hesitation John (chef) and their culinary team went above and beyond to make it happen. Our guests are still raving and craving the menu from our wedding day. Jessica and the Crossed Keys Designs team went above and beyond to bring our floral and wedding vision to life and each and every detail was breathtakingly beautiful. They truly make magic happen and no detail is left untouched. Huge shout out to Kyle, who not only took us on our very first tour, but seamlessly managed the floor and serving staff during the reception. Everyone was super attentive to us and all our guests from start to finish. If we could do it all over again we ABSOLUTELY would without changing a thing! There is no need to look any further, you won’t regret trusting and choosing this amazing venue to celebrate the most magical day of your life!

The staff at CKE were knowledgeable and responsive to any and all questions, requests, and concerns. They took the time to make my entire menu gluten free - given my dietary restrictions - and provided great onsite service. My guests said that it was one of the best weddings they'd ever been to!

It is hard to know where to begin when trying to pick the “highlights” of having our wedding at Crossed Keys Estate, because truly the entire experience from start to finish was nothing short of perfection. We ended up visiting Crossed Keys with out parents, and I think it is safe to say that on that first day when we saw the bare bones of the farmhouse, we all knew immediately that it was going to be the absolute perfect place to get married. The entire Rodriguez/Hanselman family was so genuine and wonderful to us, that it not only seemed like the perfect place for the wedding, but the perfect people to help us get our vision to come to life. In our early planning stages, Katherine and Jessica were extremely organized and communicated very clearly about when and what they needed from us. We met with Jessica for our floral consultation with Crossed Keys Designs on March 14, 2020 as the world began shutting down, and at that point had no idea that we would even have to consider moving our October 2020 wedding. We were looking for simple, fall decor for our wedding, but we knew we were still going to have about 200 people and would want flowers to bring the farmhouse to life. Jess took exactly what we envisioned and presented it to us in an easy to navigate proposal. When we began to realize that postponing may be our best option, the entire Crossed Keys team presented us with our options and made the process of changing as easy as possible. During our engagement, Crossed Keys launched a wedding portal website that was easy to navigate and so helpful in keeping everything organized. If you go with Crossed Keys, you do not need an additional planner as they keep everything organized and provide day-of coordinators who take care of EVERYTHING! And I really mean everything! Leading up to our wedding, we worked mostly with Katrina, who was happy to chat on the phone or answer emails whenever we had questions. When our bus company canceled on us a week before our wedding, Crossed Keys almost knew about it before we did as they were checking in with them independently to make sure they had everything correctly! Crossed Keys is truly a “one stop shop.” The morning of getting ready in the playhouse with my best girl friends, mom, MIL, and grandma was so special and gave me memories that will truly last forever. The grounds were AMAZING for photos and for the bridal party to hang out around while we did our photos. It seriously looks like we took our photos in a botanical garden somewhere! We have heard nothing but absolutely RAVING reviews from all of our wedding guests stating that the grounds, building, food, beverage service, florals, and EVERYTHING were absolutely amazing! As a complete and total foodie, I knew that wherever we chose to get married would have to have amazing food options, and Crossed Keys fulfilled that completely. At our cocktail hour, we had a pastrami/Jewish deli station as well as a pasta bar, which perfectly satiated both of our Jewish and Italian sides of the family. I can’t forget that every vendor that we hired was from the Crossed Keys recommended vendor list, and they were ALL amazing. I’ll wrap up with what I think is the most important thing about Crossed Keys, they are a family and they truly treat their couples like family. Thank you Jessica, Katherine, Katrina, Kyle, Joanna, and EVERYONE who helped make our day- know that it was truly perfect and we could not recommend you guys more!
