Felina

Finding the right words to express our overwhelming excitement with choosing Felina as our wedding venue feels nearly impossible. Hosting approximately 150 guests this past weekend, our event unfolded flawlessly. The staff's attentiveness ensured that every detail was meticulously executed, from a well-managed bar ensuring drinks flowed continuously to the unceasing rave reviews about the delicious and plentiful food. Throughout the night, both we and our guests felt exceptionally cared for - our guests loved the space and found it to be exceptionally photogenic. We received many compliments on how beautiful the venue was. Our pre-wedding rehearsal dinner at Felina's restaurant was equally exceptional, making sure our family and friends received excellent service from beginning to end. Carissa, undoubtedly the cornerstone of our experience, handled our myriad inquiries leading up to the event, and supported our unique requests with unparalleled grace and efficiency. She truly epitomized the excellence of Felina's team. Overall, we could not ask for a better experience than what the staff at Felina delivered. The first-rate service gave us confidence that we would be well taken care of for our big day - and they delivered. Don't hesitate to choose Felina, you won't be disappointed.

Amazing, absolutely amazing. The entire process through booking my event and planning my event with Carissa was so easy and enjoyable. She answered all of my 100 questions with a smile on her face and everything was perfect the day of our wedding. My guests were speechless at the beauty of this venue and are all still talking about it a month later. Our guests were all also obsessed with the food, some saying it's the best food they'd ever had at a wedding before!!! Although this venue does not have an official bridal suite to get ready in, they still have a smallish bridal suite that came in handy the day of the wedding. It was big enough for both our bridesmaids and groomsmen to hang out in together and it was nice for us to have a private bathroom/a place we could put all our stuff. Thank you again Felina for an AMAZING wedding day!!!!

Run, do not walk to Felina for your wedding (or a date night). We found Felina after looking into another Landmark venue that was just out of our budget. The second we stepped into Felina, we knew this was our venue. Carissa was incredible every step of the way. Everything was amazing from start to finish. Guests were in awe of Felina's beauty and the food did not disappoint.

Our heartfelt gratitude extends to Felina for creating the perfect setting for our wedding. The venue's timeless beauty, from the elegant architecture to the enchanting surroundings, provided an enchanting atmosphere that elevated our celebration. It was actually the first and only venue we looked at before booking our date a year and a half ago. It is hard to mention Felina and not mention Carissa, a true pleasure to work with and the nicest person you will ever meet. As the head of events, Carissa played a pivotal role in ensuring that every detail exceeded our expectations. Her expertise and dedication were evident in the seamless coordination of our ceremony and reception, making our day truly magical. We could have not done this without her! The culinary experience at Felina was nothing short of extraordinary. The menu left a lasting impression on our guests, who couldn't stop raving about the delicious food. We also cannot stop talking about how amazing the tasting was a few weeks before the wedding. It was truly a mini wedding in itself with other couples and families. Frank, the maitre de, orchestrated the reception with finesse, ensuring that the service was impeccable. A special thank you to Annie, our bridal attendant, whose unwavering attentiveness added an extra layer of comfort and joy to our day. Felina, with its stunning venue, exceptional food, and outstanding service, surpassed all our dreams for the perfect wedding. Five stars don't seem enough to express our gratitude for the memories you've helped create. We look forward to sharing many more memories at the restaurant!

I knew I wanted to have our wedding here the moment we toured and saw the beautiful details and old bank vault; we are so thrilled with this choice. We did go through 3 coordinators during our 1.5 year engagement. In the end Carissa was there (she previously worked at Stone House and has been with landmark for 20 years). She was clearly knowledgeable and had some tricks up her sleeve (cue fixing my husbands bout in 0.2 seconds with a needle). Our wedding food was very important to us and Felina certainly was an A+. We tried the restaurant before booking our wedding and we’re blown away. When we did our tasting the food was fabulous and totally held up to the wedding day. The staff at Felina did such a great job truly made the day so easy for us. Anna was my bridal attendant and she was so attentive and helpful. Frank the maitre’d also kept everything running smoothly for our wedding.

How do I even begin? I do events for a living - and I've been an event planner for 10 years, so I knew I wanted a venue that had top tier food and beverage and the service to match, along with a unique feel. Felina exceeded my expectations and then some! CJ is phenomenal - a true professional and eased all of my checklists, timelines and then some. We had some issues on site with a different vendor and he and his team IMMEDIATELY stepped in and resolved it all, with the utmost professionalism. We will forever love and adore the team and the space and look forward to spending our anniversaries on the restaurant side for years to come.

If you've made it to this page and are reading this review, save yourself the time, stress, and energy and sign the contract with Felina. Seriously, do it. This venue is Landmark's hidden gem: modern/gorgeous/unique, a fantastic team, and incredible food. Before finding Felina, my husband and I spoke to several other NJ-based venues. With these venues, it felt as though we were just another couple moving through their wedding-making factory. We wanted an experience that felt unique to us. From our first conversation with CJ, the Event Director at Felina, we knew we were in good hands. CJ took the time to get to know us and bring our vision to life. His attention to detail, expertise, and level of accomodation not only made planning enjoyable, but also easy! We didn't even need to hire a day-of coordinator because CJ was on top of everything: from building and executing on the timeline, to coordinating with our vendors and ensuring that every detail was picture perfect (PSA: he sets up a mean candy bar!). If CJ and the space itself aren't reason enough to choose Felina, do yourself a favor and have dinner at the restaurant. The food is UNREAL and I promise it's just as good when they're serving 150+ on your wedding day. We are still receiving texts/calls/DMs from family and friends about how incredible the food was... even better, the chef made us a special bride & groom platter of all the canapes so we were able to taste everything even though we were getting pulled in a million different directions during cocktail hour. Thank you to CJ and the entire team at Felina for giving us the most magical wedding day ever! Here's hoping we're invited to another wedding at Felina soon!!

I cannot imagine having our wedding anywhere else. Felina immediately checked off all the boxes for what we wanted, a unique venue, fantastic food, and top notch service. After our first meeting with them we knew that having our wedding here was a must. From that point forward they only exceeded our expectations further. There was fantastic communication with Chris, the event coordinator, who went above and beyond for us. He is absolutely fantastic and made our day effortless and easy. They were so organized and cared about every little detail. The food is unparalleled and completely wowed our guests with its quality. I could go on forever with how special this venue and their staff is. They made my experience as a bride so special and we are forever grateful to have the memory of our wedding day in such a beautiful and amazing place.

I had a vision for the venue - I did not want a typical ballroom, which is very hard to find in NJ. When we looked at Felina they hadn’t had many weddings (due to Covid), but the vibe was exactly what I was looking for, the venue is so different and beautiful. Although it was a bit nerve-wracking, we got SO lucky when the staff completely changed 2 months before our wedding. The event coordinator, CJ, swooped in and completely eliminated the concerns we had. He was so accommodating with last minute details, and although we only worked with him for 2 months, it felt like he had been involved from the start. He really knows what he is doing when it comes to events, and has added so many great touches to the wedding day experience at Felina (more table sizes, more candle options, more décor, more options for cocktail hour) that had not been done by the previous coordinators. The day-of, we had the pleasure of working with Natalie, Lisa and Jeff. All of them were absolutely wonderful, and SO attentive to us. Natalie, the bridal attendant, was my savior. She went ABOVE and beyond to make sure I was taken care of, I wish I could get married again just to hang out with her. Natalie and Lisa even re-pinned my entire bustle after it ripped and helped fix my hair when it became a bit crazy from dancing. Our guests have been raving about the food and drinks, as well as the service from the wait staff. We can't thank the staff enough and would highly recommend!

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! This venue is GORGEOUS, and the food is so delicious, but the customer service from the staff is bar none. When we started the process we worked with an event coordinator that didnt leave me with high hopes, but the venue was breathtakingly beautiful - but in the last 4 months of planning - in swooped Christopher, and GAME CHANGER!!! He got the vibe, he was so accommodating, and fun to work with! I am so glad I got to see him on my wedding day! The bridal attendant was literally an angel, she saved me, my feet, and my sanity during the entire event. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants a grand but yet intimate venue. Bonus, you can come back to the restaurant on your anniversary :)

My husband and I had the same vision for our wedding. We wanted to celebrate our marriage in a unique and beautiful space, eat great food and dance to good music. We thought our list was pretty simple, but after searching for months, nothing spoke to us. Then a little venue that was under construction came up in our search. Upon entering Felina, we were sold. The space wasn’t complete but the vision was there, and after dining in the restaurant, we knew our checklist would be filled. 
We had a little bit of a different experience than any other couple will have going forward, dealing with construction and change of contact, but through it all, we received the best communication with the GM Mike. Mike made our entire experience wonderful- and we are so grateful for the time and energy he put into our day. The venue is simply stunning. From the beautiful bridal suite, to the unique chandeliers, the space is full of detail. While not all spaces were complete during our wedding (the board room will be updated, as well as an outdoor bar in the future), we know that this space will only get better. We even chose to have our photos inside and outside the building because it was a gorgeous backdrop! Now, the food. Any comment we received about the food at the wedding was the same: “It’s the best food I’ve ever had at a wedding!” While we only got a few bites in between talking with guests, having dined in the restaurant every chance we got, we knew the food would be phenomenal. Chef Anthony and his team did the best job! Fresh, local food at its best. On top of that, the service was spectacular. Anywhere you turned there was someone to help, someone to serve or clear a plate, there was never a moment during our day that I felt I was missing something or things weren’t getting done. A few weeks before the wedding, when we were doing one of our walkthroughs, my husband and I both said that this venue is going to take off. This place will book fast, and with good reason. The day of was stress free, and above all else, it was so much fun! The only complaint - it went by way too fast! Thank you Felina for an unforgettable experience! Trish & Drew
