Couldn’t have asked for a better wedding or planning process! Chef Mario is incredible and deeply cares about his food and his customers. Our guests are still raving about the food.
I actually cannot even begin to put into words how incredibly amazing this venue is for weddings, or any other life events. I worked alongside of Michael and Mario, the chef to plan my wedding day on 11/15. From the beginning, they treated me like family. They were and still are loving, supportive, professional, and welcoming. They worked so hard to make sure every single piece of my day was perfect while still allowing me to feel this continuous sense of calmness, peace, and excitement. The venue was stunning, the food was absolutely amazing, and the service was unreal. My family is still raving about the food and the atmosphere at Il tulipano. I feel like I can’t actually express how grateful I am for Michael and Mario into words. My wedding day was the best day of my life, and I owe it all to il Tulipano and their team. Thank you!!!
Our wedding was 5/11/24, and it was the most amazing day ever- mainly in part to the amazing staff at il Tulipano that guided us through the entire process. From our initial meeting with Chef Mario, all the way to working with Michael Ventola, Angela and Carol to iron out all of the details - our day was perfect thanks to them. Our friends and family are still raving about the incredible food selection and amazing service. The nightmares heard about the bride and groom not eating or having fun at their own wedding goes out the window at il Tulipano. The staff ensured we were taken care of, catering to our food and drink needs. You truly do not need to hire an outside wedding coordinator with these guys- they contact all of your vendors and enhance your wedding experience solely because of their experience! Carol and Ange helped out with a dress mishap at the drop of a dime. 11 out of 10 recommend.
We had our wedding here this past weekend and we cannot say enough about how wonderful it was to work to Carlos and Michael and the rest of the team. We've been planning our wedding with il Tulipano for over two years and for the entire time they were attentive to every question and concern we may have had. Leading up to our day, Carlos was sure to check in on us and make sure we were relaxed and doing well. The day of went off without a hitch and everyone was so helpful to make sure our day went seamlessly. Our Maitre'D and bridal attendant was there everytime we turned around to make sure we were doing well and needed anything we could ask for. The venue itself is gorgeous. Our guests have not stopped talking about how wonderful the food was and how great the bar was the entire time. I highly recommend booking with il Tulipano and their team for any upcoming events you may have! Two days later and our family is already asking to go back there for future events and relive the entire night!
Il Tulipano is amazing! This venue has the best food hands down.. they provide so much food for both the cocktail reception and dinner. The venue is beautiful and the staff was extremely helpful, from the initial meetings to the wedding execution, it was all amazing and seamless. I highly recommend this venue if your getting married in NJ!
After I visited this venue, I knew this was our dream one! The staff was extremely friendly and made us feel like family from day one! They were very responsive whenever we had questions and all of their staff was extremely accommodating! The owner of the venue also owns Rare Steakhouse, so as an upgrade, we had a Rare Steakhouse station during cocktail hour which was a huge delicious hit! The Vienesse hour was held in a separate room from the ballroom and all the desserts were out of this world! We got married outside in the garden too and it was so beautiful! People still rave about the food and we were so pleased with the food and service that we actually plan on having more milestone events
We had our wedding at il Tulipano in November 2022. To say that everything was perfect would be an understatement! Everyone knows that this venue has the best food of any wedding venue in NJ (and I received compliments on the food all night and the days following from my foodie family members and friends). However, what sets il Tulipano apart is the service and the staff. Other venues are way less flexible and refuse to deviate from their standard proceedings, while il Tulipano truly cares about you and wants to make your wedding perfect according to your wishes (whether you want to customize your food, drinks, table arrangements - literally anything within reason).
Mike, the man in charge of most of the operations, went above and beyond to make our day perfect. He set us up with three signature drinks, included specialty scotch and beer that we chose, and made a great impression on my family (he even arranged for everyone to sing happy birthday to my grandma for her 91st birthday). At one point, he saw that my newly wedded wife wanted a new drink and personally went to the bar to prepare her a fresh one.
Sunday, our bridal attendant, was also the absolute best. She was on top of everything, kept us and the party on track all night, and brought us any food or drink that we needed (and quickly too), and wrapped up anything that we could not finish. She even gathered and packaged everything that we left behind that night for us to easily pick up the next morning.
Carlos was generally our point person and handled all of our questions and concerns with great professionalism and care. He had a keen attention to detail, and followed through with all of our requests and never forgot anything from our discussions.
Back to the food - Mario (the head chef) called us before the wedding to confirm our menu, and prepared special dishes for some of my more picky family members.
On top of all this, the venue is absolutely gorgeous and immaculate inside and out. The inside floors are porcelain, there is tons of room and seating in the cocktail area, and the outside grounds are spacious and beautiful.
Trust me and have your wedding here, you will not be disappointed!
My husband and I chose Il Tulipano for our wedding in May. It was one of the best choices we made for our special day. It was perfect for our guest count (150) and they were super flexible with the indoor/outdoor wedding (and rain backup plan). Everything was beautiful! Our guests were over the moon with the entire event. The pictures by the back waterfall garden came out gorgeous!!! Carlos was fantastic to work with and very flexible with our decor and setup requests. EXTREMELY SMOOTH day-of execution. Couldn't be happier with the entire process. Would highly recommend having an event here!

il Tulipano was an amazing venue! Our family and guests raved about the incredible food - from cocktail hour to main course! The only thing though is that servers apparently took plates out quicker! Other than that, everything about the venue was great! We were in the ballroom area with a nice balcony attached to it so our guests loved that. There is also a nice outdoor terrace for pictures! Carlos, the coordinator or catering, was awesome! He walked us through every step of the wedding timeline!
We got married at Il Tulipano last week and it was a perfect day! The ceremony outside was gorgeous. The cocktail hour and reception were great as well, we received so many compliments on the food and the day overall. The day of team was awesome especially Jen! Our day could not have gone more perfect.
Our amazing wedding was one month ago at Il Tulipano and I am so happy my husband and I choose to have our reception here. We booked in 2020 and had to reschedule for 2021 due to the pandemic. After going back and forth, we finally settled on a new plan for our day and after that it was smooth sailing. We are grateful to Gina, Carlos, our bridal attendant Carol, and the entire staff at Il Tulipano for their attention to detail, professionalism, and an overall wonderful, memorable evening. Gina is a rock star for ensuring floral garland that I wanted hung on the lobby staircase was placed there even when provided at the last minute. It is efforts like this that make the service really stand out and show how much they care for their brides. Carol was on top of everything all night, she helped carry around my very long veil until I changed, made sure all of our items were gathered and packed up safely at the end of the night, and leftovers were given to enjoy the next day since we were too excited to eat a lot that night. The food was excellent as promised. We are still hearing from guests how delicious it all was and that the entrees were hot and fresh. The place itself was beautiful and impeccably clean. I also loved that it is one wedding at a time so you have full attention on your party. I am glad il Tulipano is back in action after a rough year for everyone. Thank you for making it the wedding of our dreams!
It's been two weeks since our wedding and our guests cannot stop talking about the fabulous food il Tulipano had to offer! My husband and I are still appreciative of the coordinators and staff who worked with us over the last year and a half through planning, postponing, then planning all over again! Carlos and Gina were more than happy to work with our visions to create the perfect wedding day. Any questions we had regarding our menu or contract were always addressed promptly, any anxieties were met with understanding and reassurance. As for any budget or rescheduling issues there were none and the entire process including the big day went smoothly. A great and safe time was had by all, I only wish I ate more! I highly recommend having the Vienese Room for dessert and adding the Rare Steakhouse station to your cocktail hour, we are glad we did!
We got married at il Tulipano on 10/12/19 and there isn't one thing I could say I would have changed. The way we were treated by all the staff from the first day of walking in down to leaving after our wedding I couldn't of asked for anything more. I had the privilege of working with Gina. She was so helpful through every step of the process I really couldn't of done it without her. The food is amazing as well as the wedding cake and lavish Viennese hour. Everything from start to finish was perfect. Thank you so much Gina & the staff at il Tulipano for making my day truly amazing!
I Do Not Recommend! Being at that age where all my friends are getting married,I was looking forward towards this precious moment and was recommended Il Tulipano by a friend with a date set in the Fall of 2020. When this unforeseen pandemic started, it affected me and my guests(including family and friends). Its difficult to see people you love going through the emotions of loss(jobs and loved ones) and struggling to get through these times. I myself have been affected and am not employed so prioritizing and allocating what I have left is important as I try to get through this along with my family. Being in an accelerated B.S nursing program and much is unknown of what lies ahead (graduation may be postponed int Fall),I had decided to plan ahead and postpone the wedding for the safety of my guests(family and friends), to lessen the financial burden (Food, school tuition, books). I sent an email inquiring about delaying the second deposit for at least a month (was extended by a week) the new Director of Catering(DOC) called me and told me NO i can not reschedule and would need to wait until August and to take a "leap of faith" that October will work out and if the government states it is ok to have social gatherings then the Wedding is going to happen. I felt a little bit like i was getting pushed up against the wall slowly as this conversation continued. The DOC said if I wanted to postpone I would need to open up my wedding date so they can fill that with another couple so that way Il Tulipano doesn't take a financial loss. Then I would be able to postpone my date 6 months from the original date without a fee because otherwise my current contract would need to get ripped up and this would theoretically incur higher costs. Which sounded ok to me because i was considering going for a date in April 2021. But then they went to tell me April 2021 is the start of our wedding season and if we schedule you in for an empty date during our wedding season then YES WE ARE TAKING A LOSS OFF YOUR WEDDING(Because new 2021 pricing takes place and goes up a percentage I was told). I won't lie, being told I'm inconveniencing them from making more profit hurt a little. In addition I inquired about possibly pushing back the date for the 2nd deposit(because it is a lot of money which I did not and still do not have at this time) if I was able to successfully postpone the wedding once my date has been filled by another couple. They told me "No, we already extended you 1 week and legally I could have forfeited your contract but did not, you can go into a payment plan but we need some or all that money by tomorrow and there is no way around this because of policy". I asked if I canceled after opening my date and having it filled, then can I get a refund for my first deposit. They told me NO.They said it would be financial suicide if they started moving all these weddings in advance or delaying payments. However Iv'e heard of other venues and vendors being more considerate and flexible with payments and moving weddings and even not requiring payments at the time, it made me feel like there was less of an emphatic approach and more of a desperation for money from my venue compared to others that are willing to work with their clients to get through this together. Needless to say I lost my deposit and didn't want wish to pursue with them which was a huge disappointment because initially there was good potential.
We got married at il Tulipano January 17, 2020. From the moment we walked into the venue and met with Gina, we knew we found the perfect place. Every time we went to the venue for things like our cake testing or to go over details, it felt like we were meeting with family. Everyone was so nice and at times I felt like they were more excited and organized than we were. They answered every question and steered us in the right direction, even if it was not related to the venue. The food was amazing, and our cake exceeded our expectations. They somehow made the cake look even better than the pinterest picture and it was the best tasting cake I've ever had (vanilla with oreo filling). The entire staff was beyond amazing, the owner even helped us carry in our stuff the week before the wedding. My bridal attendant, Thea, was also amazing and didn't leave our side the entire night. She literally whisked us away to where we needed to be and did not let us miss a beat. She even made sure my lipgloss was reapplied before I cut the cake. Thank you ilTulipano for the best day ever!
Finding a venue for your wedding is one of the most stressful parts of wedding planning. I looked at so many and just wasn't really thrilled with them. Then I went to il Tulipano. Let me tell you, from the second I walked in, I just knew it was the venue for us! I was so impressed with EVERYTHING. This venue is PERFECT, just stunning. Gina helped us from the start of our wedding planning until the end! The day of my wedding was so absolutely perfect. They really captured all of my ideas and brought them to life. My day was filled with so much love, excitement and overall joy. My family and friends are still talking about how amazing the food was. The cocktail hour and Viennese hour really caught everyone off guard by how AMAZING it was. I 100% recommend il Tulipano to all the future brides and grooms. I will rave about il Tulipano for the rest of my life. I cannot thank them enough, especially Gina! Thank you il Tulipano for hosting the best night of my life and making it even more special!!
The best wedding venue you can ask for! From start of planning to helping me box up decorations at the end of the night, the entire staff at il Tulipano was fantastic!
My wife and I had the perfect wedding at Il Tulipano. Working with Gina and Sunday has been an absolute pleasure. The food, service and staff were amazing. I would highly recommend Il Tulipano to anyone looking for a wedding venue.
Let me start by saying at first I had the best experience with my original coordinator. He was personable, kind hearted, and truly connected with us, which made us book with them in February 2019. Around Nov/Dec 2019 he left and I had to be informed by another bride who also had him as a coordinator.
Upon calling to inquire the status of this or why we had not been updated (he’d been gone for almost a month) my FH and I were met with rude personnel. The new coordinator was rude and made remarks such as : “You’re one of many weddings” , “I’m not thinking about your wedding right now”, “if you’re not satisfied we can pass your file along”, and “ you’re the only ones who seem to not be satisfied” . She also proceed to state we wouldn’t be contacted until February for an APRIL wedding, which I thought was ridiculous.
I proceeded to speak with the owner and we were not met with a better attitude. After informing him of our interaction with Gina he then told us “We must’ve took it wrong and that there was no way she could’ve said those things or meant it that way.” We were appalled that ilTulipano’s personnel would ever speak to us and treat us in this manner. As a result we terminated our contact and asked for a refund. We could not fathom working with them and having our wedding held there in fear of not being treated with care and respect.
After two weeks of unanswered emails from the owner and unreturned phone calls, we finally got our refund and couldn’t be happier. Please be careful when booking with ilTulipano .
I had the absolute pleasure of getting married at il Tulipano on 9.27.19 and everyone (3 months later) is still talking about how amazing the evening was. Everyone loved the venue, the food (OMG! The food & cannoli cake) and just the overall flow. Over the course of a year, I worked directly with Gina and I couldn’t have been happier. Our time together was absolutely amazing and I was actually sad when my wedding was over because our interaction was such a pleasure. From start to finish the event was flawless and I walked away wishing that I could do it all over again. There are so many wedding venues out there but I am so thankful we made the right selection and I would pick this venue and staff every time. Thank you Gina, Carol and Thea for an amazing day! Worth every penny!
I don’t think there are enough adjectives to describe how amazing this place is. From day one when we met Gina throughout the entire process was flawless. They did everything perfectly for us. The food was absolutely delicious- I’m getting phone calls from guests telling me they never had food like that at a wedding. We loved that you only do one wedding at a time. It made everyone feel extra special. Again, Gina with the help of the entire staff made this day just perfect. We will always be grateful for your help in making this day the very best!
My husband and I had our ceremony and reception at Il Tulipano on 10/13/19. It was the most amazing experience from start to finish. Not one thing went wrong, everything was perfect. We have been working with Gina since July 2018 planning our special day and she was the absolute best!! She did not miss anything and was always available to talk when we needed her. She answered all of our questions appropriately and guided us with the best advice through all of our planning. The day of was the best day ever. Our bridal attendants (Carol and Sunday) blew us out of the water. For cocktail our they brought us a combination of all of our foods to taste. They would not let us get up at all, the table was full of plates of food and they kept our drinks full the entire night and did not let us worry about ANYTHING at all. They were amazing. The food - was phenomenal and SO much!!! Everyone thought that cocktail hour was the main meal because of how much food there was. And every single thing was DELICIOUS!!!! We also had the Viennese hour which was amazing. Our bridal attendants packed us up a ton of desserts to bring home as well. The venue itself is beautiful and the people who work there are all so friendly. We HIGHLY recommend this venue to everyone. You will not be disappointed. You get WAY more than what you pay for and their prices are very affordable for an amazing wedding! Thank you again to Gina, Carol, Sunday and everyone else at Il Tulipano for making our special day so memorable; not just to us, but to all of our 150 guests as well!!! It's been over a week and everyone is still talking about the food!! :)
We visited over 7 venues but when we came here we knew that was it. First of all the fact that Il Tulipano only has one party at a time was a huge selling point. It comforted us to know that we wouldn’t have our guests bumping into another party’s guests throughout the night. Now the next selling point which locked us down was Chris. From our first appointment he never made us feel pressured about the process. In fact he was communicative, patient, understanding, and ultimately human. We honestly felt that we had made a friend and any time we had to connect he always offered up ideas. As we got closer to our wedding day he made himself available and even came in on a day off to walk us through our rehearsal!!!! The day of the wedding him along w/ his team were EXCELLENT! Each table had someone assigned to it and all our guests felt that their needs were taken care of. Finally the FOOD!!!! 5 star from the cocktail hour to the entrees and all the way up to the Viennese. I mean we could not have pictured it more perfectly! Now all we need is for a friend or family member to get married there so we could go as guests! We absolutely recommend Chris and Il Tulipano to friends and family!
Il Tulipano hosted our wedding on 9/14/19 and it everything we hoped for and more! Chris and his staff were beyond accommodating and made us feel like family throughout the entire process. The day of our wedding, Veronica was our bridal attendant, and we were blown away by her support! The grounds are so beautiful that you hardly need extra floral arrangements from your florist! They also recommend amazing vendors! We used their recommended photographer who knew the venue which made our pictures seem less and stress free! Highly recommend this venue!
We could not be happier that we chose il Tulipano for our wedding day. Greg, Chris , Carol, and staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of for us. The food was exceptional and we have not stopped getting compliments about it since. Our unique request for a wedding cake was delivered and amazing. Chris listened to every concern and we felt totally comfortable leading up to our wedding that he had everything under control. Our wedding reception went smoothly and everyone had a wonderful time Dancing, Drinking, and Eating the night away.
My husband and I are blown away by il Tulipano's service for our wedding. We worked with Donald, who was very thorough and honest throughout the planning process. He was very responsive to our emails all the time and we are thankful that he was our contact. Our guests still cannot stop talking about how beautiful everything was and the quantity of such high quality food. The service was great all night. Thea, our bridal attendant, saved the day more times than we can count. She was there whenever we had a question or a problem and she worked hard to make sure that we had everything we needed. The venue was very flexible when we were picking up our things and even gave us extra wedding cake to take home! Thank you, il Tulipano, for making our day so memorable and special
We had our reception at Il Tulipano on June 29, 2019 and everyone keeps telling us how amazing the food was and how beautiful the space was. Gina was a delight to work with. She was not pushy at all but instead very helpful, sweet, and accommodating. The service was amazing! The ballroom and dance floor are huge! I absolutely loved our wedding day and are so happy that we choose Il Tulipano!
Having our wedding reception at Il Tulipano was the best decision we made. Right from the first meeting we knew we had to go with them. My husband and I absolutely loved the venue when we saw it for the first time. The décor is very elegant and we liked the fact that we had the whole venue to ourselves. Other than the venue, Chris was the other factor that solidified our decision of going with Il Tulipano. Chris was absolutely great to work with. He addressed all our questions/concerns and even accommodated some changes that had to be made due to personal circumstances that arose. He was always very organized and thorough in his communications with us. Everything was perfect and to the T on our wedding day. All details and décor were just as we had requested. In addition to Chris, Carol and Veronica were fantastic in helping my husband and I with anything and everything we needed on the day of our wedding. The three of them made for a perfect team! Now the food, absolutely amazing!! So many of our wedding guests were complimentary of the food and were in complete awe of the quantity and quality of the cocktail hour food. All in all, Il Tulipano knows how to do a wedding right. The food is delicious and the staff are great! Thank you for making our wedding day perfect!
Our wedding date was 12/29/18. Il Tulipano was impeccable. From working with Greg and to his staff, bridal attendant, to all the food that was served. As I first started to look for venues, I had a vision in mind, and not many at all could full fill it. We wanted to celebrate us and our night in a non traditional way, the way we saw it, an extended Cocktail hour, with no traditional sit down dinner. Il Tulipano, Greg and his staff made that come true. Just like in a regular cocktail hour with stations, just out for a longer, but kept fresh the extended time it was out. Not only were our guest so impressed with this extended cocktail, they loved that they could eat and then dance and go back for more. The food was phenomenal and no one left hungry, more like put in food comas! We couldn’t be more happy with the service, food and all the above that is Tulipano provided for us. Thank you for helping our vision come true. But also making us and our guest so happy in celebrating one of the happiest days of our lives.
Il Tulipano is an Amazing and Beautiful place to have your wedding. The staff is incredible and extremely professional. Chris was on point with everything. The Matrade Veronica was very helpful—the best attendant ever. All the guest raved about the food, how good it was. We received complaints from our friends and family that it was the Best wedding they ever attended. Wedding Date 11/17/18--AM
We had our wedding at Il Tulipano on November 17, 2018. We communicated mainly with Donald Longo, who made sure to accommodate our every need before, during, and even after the event. Our guests were floored by Il Tulipano’s cocktail hour - in fact, many guests mistakenly thought cocktail hour was a buffet dinner! Not only is Il Tulipano’s food beyond compare, but their service and professionalism cannot be rivaled. We had a few unplanned minor incidents break out during the course of our reception but my husband and I never needed to worry about them because Il Tulipano’s staff immediately took care of whatever the issue was. We were especially impressed with Carol, our Matre’d, and Veronica, our bridal attendant. We had a reserved table during the cocktail hour that had a platter of the passed hor’devours already on it (and a huge white napkin so I wouldn’t dirty my dress!). Veronica got us whatever else we wanted during the cocktail hour so that we were able to sit and enjoy ourselves. The case was the same for the Viennese hour. At the end of the night, Carol, Veronica, and the rest of the staff quickly and efficiently gathered all our decorations and helped us transport them to a waiting car. Our reception was perfect and Il Tulipano played a huge part in that. I cannot recommend them highly enough!
We had our wedding at il Tulipano this past October, and I do have to say we were not disappointed. My now husband knew it to be our venue from the very first meeting with Gina. She was fantastic from beginning to end. She also dealt with my constant nervousness and panic with genuine patience and care. Fast forward to our wedding date, 10/28/18. The set up was impeccable from what I remember. We opted to have a private cocktail downstairs in the bridal suite, and my wedding attendant, Sunday assisted by her sister Carol were great. They brought us down an array of food, and made sure we were comfortable. We taste tasted most of what they brought us, and what we did try was fabulous. Honestly, the best thing I can tell anyone reading this review is to enjoy your day. Eat your food, at cocktail, or dinner, enjoy your desserts and your open bar because hey! you paid for it all. Despite not taking my own advice, I was glad that we chose il Tulipano. Carol and Sunday helped my mother bussle my dress, and they also got me more of the shish kabob I fell in love with. They were attentive through out the day, and really did try to get me to sit and eat. Since we were pulled in so many directions with our photographers and wanting to make sure we greeted the majority of our guests, neither one of us got to enjoy the terrific looking meals set before us. Carol and Sunday packed up our food, and I don't have the words for the Venetian hour. I could have stayed in there for days. Again ladies, please take the time to enjoy the food. It made me feel tremendously better to have our guests compliment the food, especially the cocktail hour. We had a couple of add ons to our menu and although there was plenty of food without the additions, the sushi and steak station were hits! My uncle is a gourmet chef, and never eats wedding food, and he complimented our menu choices. He actually tried, and was impressed. That was more than enough validation for me. Overall, we had a terrific time and we do not regret our choice. I recommended this venue to my cousin for his upcoming nuptuals since he was so impressed with the service and food. I honestly wish we could do it all over so we could relive the moment.
I'm not sure where to start. We live just over an hour away from this venue but didn't realize it when we made the appointment. We went anyway and met with Chris. Jonathan wanted to sign right then and there without even looking at another venue yet. I convinced him to see one more and also kept looking online for something better and closer to our house. What a waste of time.
NOTHING compared to il Tulipano. The place is gorgeous! The standard cocktail hour is insane with MORE than enough food. The menu is simply amazing. The food is DELICIOUS and so are the desserts!
The staff is top notch. Friendly, helpful, accommodating. Chris kept me calm during all my other wedding planning snafus, weather issues and last minute changes to our guests and tables THE DAY OF our wedding. He was always available for any questions we had and always had helpful advice for us all throughout our planning. Carol was so amazing to us and our guests and even kept a close watch on my parents, as my Dad's health is not good. Veronica, my bridal attendant, was just amazing! She asked us what we wanted to eat during our cocktail hour and delivered it to our table. She made sure we ate and drank. She sewed my dress when part of the beading was coming off. The second I took off my shoes, she came over with flip flops.
Our guests cannot stop talking about the atmosphere and the food. Especially the cocktail hour, which again, we just had the standard one! We enjoyed everything so much that I want to do it again!!
From the moment my husband and I walked the grounds of il Tulipano we knew we had finally found the place we wanted to say "I do"! Our event coordinator, Chris was amazing from start to finish. No detail was missed. He and his staff completely fulfilled our vision for how we wanted our day to look and feel. Chris was always available to answer any questions and both he and the staff were very attentive the day of the wedding. And the food was absolutely amazing! We couldn't have asked for a better day and it will be a day we will remember and cherish forever.
It has been exactly six months since our wedding day, and I am still in awe. Words cannot describe how extraordinary our reception was. The grounds surrounding Il Tulipano are beautiful and well kept. Perfect for outdoor cocktails and beautiful picture taking. Walking into the ballroom for the first time seeing everything set up left me speechless. The attention to detail was astonishing. No matter where you sat in the ballroom, you had a great view of everything. We had over 200 guests and the ballroom did not feel tight at all. The tables were set up perfectly where everyone was comfortable even getting in and out of their seats and making their way to the dance floor.
To this day, our friends and family still can't stop talking about how amazing our reception was including the service and of course the food! Everyone is still raving about how delicious the food was and the array of food during cocktail hour was unbelievable! Everyone in my family are hoping that there will be another occasion for us at Il Tulipano to relive the amazing time we had there on our wedding day and of course eat all the delicious food all over again!
Chris and his staff went above and beyond and their service was impeccable. I had no worries at all and did not have to think of a single thing. They had everything planned and organized so well that the night went by so smoothly. Chris was very punctual and made sure everyone in the wedding party was ready and lined up for the reception entrance.
The waiting staff were beyond amazing! They were very efficient and unnoticeable. They bring one plate at a time to and from the kitchen (no buckets full of dirty plates sitting around) and each table had their own dedicated waiter. They did not ever cross the dance floor and were attentive to everyone at their table. Chris was so accommodating that he even had Spanish waiters to cater to my family that were here from Panama since they do not speak English. At the end of the night, we had no worries with gathering our personal items, flowers, items left behind, etc. They were collected by the staff and provided to us the next day.
I can go on and on about how amazing this venue is. Other great details to note is the valet service provided free of charge for all guests, the beautiful lighting in both the cocktail room and ballroom, the cup of joe (coffee) and biscotti to go when all the guests were leaving at the end of the night, and the fact that they do one wedding at a time.
The fact that everyone keeps talking about our wedding day makes me feel wonderful, thanks to Il Tulipano! I highly recommend Il Tulipano to anyone looking for a wonderful, beautiful venue with exceptional service and delicious food. Thank you Chris and your staff for one of the best nights of my life!
When we first got engaged we spent a lot of time looking at reception venues. We knew that this was going to be one of the biggest details of our wedding day and we wanted to take our time to pick the perfect place for us and our guests. We had a lot of requirements (one wedding at a time, amazing food, beautiful outdoor area, cocktail room with seating for every guest, and a ballroom with windows and appropriately shaped so that every guest would be able to see us and the dance floor). I know it sounds like a lot of requirements - but luckily we found the amazing il Tulipano which was able to provide all of this and so much more! From the start until even after our wedding day, Chris was AMAZING! He is so warm, honest, and knowledgeable and was by far the best wedding professional we dealt with. He was always available to answer our questions and he would always provide his honest opinion whenever we asked for it without being pushy at all. It meant a lot to us to always be able to bounce ideas off of someone who sees weddings happen all the time and could tell us if things were good ideas or not. He was so organized and leading up to our wedding we had no doubt that everything we imagined would be executed flawlessly by Chris and his team. The day of our wedding, our bridal attendant, Thea, was perfect. I wish I could have had her with me the whole day before we got to il Tulipano! She made sure we ate TONS of food. I know so many people who say they did not eat at their wedding - she made sure this was not the case for us! She even packaged up the desserts we were too full to finish for us to bring home. She was always there to help fluff the train of my gown before pictures and she carried my items on her all day and reminded me to reapply my lipstick. She even let my husband and I have some nice alone time by doing special things like showing us our ballroom before the reception and showing us our incredible Viennese hour before it was opened to the rest of our guests. Speaking of food- all of our guests could not get over how amazing it was. They make SO much food and its unbelievable how every single thing tastes incredible! We have heard from countless guests that this was the best wedding they have ever been to. Book your wedding here and I promise it will be the best decision you make!
Where do I begin? My husband and I attended our first wedding as couple at Il Tulipano years ago and could not have had a more enjoyable experience. When it came time for us to find the right venue for our special day we were drawn back to Il Tulipano because it had everything we were looking for. From the moment we met with Chris and his team we were treated like we really mattered to them. Every detail on our wedding day from them was so expertly done it allowed us to enjoy every moment with no stress. Chris and his team were there to make sure our guests were treated like royalty for the entire night.
The ambiance of the entire ceremony on the grounds was not only visually stunning but also very functional as the guests were able to seamlessly move from our ceremony to the cocktail hour with no delay. The cocktail hour is hard to put into words. There is so much food that each guest, even the pickiest eater, will have a plethora of amazing options to choose from. Everyone was bouncing around the room discovering what amazing options there were and indulging in so many delectable foods that they couldn’t stop raving about.
The ballroom upstairs was set perfectly with attention to every little detail we wanted. We were able to change the color scheme with the flick of a switch which was a great touch. The outdoor patio attached to the ballroom was the perfect respite for guests to enjoy a cigar or to take a breath and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the grounds which were lit beautifully at night.
Carol our Maitre D was on top of every detail and provided excellent communication between all of our vendors to ensure that everything went off without even the smallest of problems. Whenever there was a question she was there without delay, almost like she could read our minds.
Veronica our bridal attendant deserves the highest of praise. From the moment we set foot on the grounds after our first look and pictures she was there for anything my bridal party or I needed. She was so attentive to me and my husband throughout the entire night in making sure that we had what wanted, what we needed, and ensuring that everything was taken care of so we could take in every special moment along the way. From giving me flip flops when my feet hurt to applying a fresh coat of lipstick before our cake cutting, she was just on top of every single detail throughout the night. I can’t thank her enough and am truly grateful that she was there with me as she made sure I was able to enjoy everything without even the smallest worry.
The desert hour was a hit among my guests that they are still raving about. The room itself is expansive and flows beautifully with the delicious chocolate fondue fountain situated directly in the center of the room. From flambé coffee to cotton candy and literally everything in between, my guests were coming back with multiple plates and making multiple trips to the room. There were options for everyone and it gave my guests the perfect opportunity to take a brief rest before the end of the night and replenish the energy they lost on the dance floor.
We could not have been happier with anything that Il Tulipano provided for us. We were drawn to it from our previous experience there and our guests have had the same reaction. Our wedding day could not have gone any better and it would not have been possible without Chris and every member of the Il Tulipano family. With love, Mr. & Mrs. Fahey
My son and daughter-in-law just had their wedding reception here and it was fantastic! The food at the cocktail hour included everything that you could possibly imagine and was so delicious.The weather was nice, so many of the guests were out on the patio.
The reception upstairs was wonderful. Veronica, the bridal attendant, was amazing and made sure that everything ran smoothly. I personally had the filet mignon and it was to die for. Really, every aspect of the evening was exceptional. Everyone at the reception thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
I also have to mention that the bride and groom live out of state and Donald from Il Tulipano made making the arrangements so easy. He made sure that he was available to meet with them on the occasions that they came East and was also willing to make decisions over the phone.
I highly recommend Il Tulipano.
My husband and I were blown away by il Tulipano. Everything was perfect! Our guests have not stopped raving about the food which is a lot given my family is from Italy and extremely picky! As far as the service, everyone we encountered went above and beyond. The maitre d, our bridal attendant (Veronica) and Chris whom we worked with throughout were all so amazing. I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding and have been getting texts all day from our guests telling us how much fun they had. Thank you il Tulipano for a perfect wedding!
My husband and I got married on June 29, 2018 and had our wedding reception at il Tulipano. It was the most amazing night of our lives! From start to finish the service we received at il Tulipano was unparalled. Leading up to the wedding, our catering and events director Chris met with us on multiple occasions and helped us plan every detail of the reception perfectly and also provided much appreciated insight and guidance. The week before the wedding Chris and his staff were available, attentive, and helped us coordinate last minute additions and changes (such as setting up and displaying a 6-foot cardboard cut-out photo of my husband and I that a friend surprised us with). On the day of the wedding, the staff was incredible and made sure our day went perfectly as planned. In particular, our bridal attendant was first-rate. She met us immediately when we arrived, brought us refreshments and even made sure we were able to enjoy a bite to eat at our cocktail hour between photos and welcoming our guests. Throughout the night she brought us drinks, reminded us where we needed to be, bustled my dress, and made sure we had everything we needed. Importantly, all of the food was delicious and our guests were blown away by how good everything was. The cocktail hour offered nearly everything you could imagine, from jumbo shrimp cocktail served off of an ice sculpture to Tomahawk steak with a side of lobster mac and cheese, to brick oven pizza slices and a quesadilla bar. It was all devoured with delight. The dinner was equally as delicious and our guests raved about the salmon and filet mignon. In addition, the Viennese hour in the “dessert room” as our friends still refer to it was out of this world. There were so many different dessert stations including a chocolate fountain, cannoli station, zeppoles, traditional wedding cake, pastries, and it could all be washed down with flaming coffees and after-dinner liqueurs. In the days after our wedding one of my family members said, “The food was the quality of a five star restaurant.” My husband and I highly recommend il Tulipano to anyone looking to book a venue for their upcoming wedding.
We had our wedding at it Tulipano on June 9,2018 and we were blown away. We worked with Chris. Not only was he lovely and easy to work with but he and il Tulipano catered to every need during the planning process and the day of. He made planning a breeze. Our bridal attendant was extremely on top of things- to the point where she took a hair pin out of her own hair and pinned it in mine to fix my hair before I went on the dance floor. The night was a dream and was beyond our imagination. There was no shortage of food. Every last bite was delicious and our guests keep talking about it. Il Tulipano actually made sure we had moments to ourselves to eat and take everything in. We highly recommend you book il Tulipano to make your wedding as amazing and as special as ours !
My husband and I were married on May 27, 2018. I can’t even begin to explain how absolutely wonderful everything was at Il Tulipano. From the setup, to the service to the food, absolutely amazing. They even packed us up a dessert tray for us to bring home! Our family and friends are STILL talking about how great everything was. The only thing I wish is that we could do it all over again! Thank you for making our day the best it could be!
Our wedding at Il Tulipano was a few days ago; June 23, 2018. It absoltely couldn’t have gone better. From our attendant, to the wait staff, to the bar, etc. everyone did everything they could to make our wedding day the best day of our lives. We highly recommend working with Chris Ryter. The day we first saw IlTulipano we didn’t have an appointment and were just passing through to check it out. Although he was clearly busy and we were a walk-in, we met Chris and he found time to give us a tour. I could tell right away that Chris would be great to work with and throughout the planning process he was always easy to get in touch with and sent friendly reminders when we were behind or needed to give something attention. Il Tulipano is AWESOME and will always hold a special place in our hearts. THANK YOU!!!
Angelo and Anel
We were so fortunate to have had our wedding reception at il Tulipano! We cannot say enough good things about Chris Ryter who worked with us and the entire staff. Il Tulipano is an absolutely beautiful establishment, and you can feel the warmth inside. Owned and run by family, you are made to feel like family! The staff at il Tulipano is among the sweetest and kindest we have ever interacted with. Christ Ryter was the manager who worked with us, and again, we cannot say enough good things about him.
Chris always took the time to make sure that all of our questions and concerns were taken care, he provided us with very helpful suggestions and recommendations, and he did everything to ensure that our day was going to be special.
At il Tulipano they genuinely love what they do. We never felt like we were just another wedding or just another number. We could see that our wedding was very important to the staff at il Tulipano, and they made it their mission to ensure that we had a great time and that we were taken care of. That was something that immediately stood out to us, this genuine desire to give you the best time! For so many places, you’re just another wedding, and you’re just in and out. But il Tulipano makes it their mission to give you only the best experience, and their genuineness is so obvious.
Our wedding was in March, and people are still telling us how much fun they had at our wedding! Il Tulipano had exactly what we were looking for in a reception hall. We had our reception in the ballroom, which we highly recommend. The atmosphere was very warm and beautiful, not like some of the over the top, gaudy rooms you find in other reception halls. It’s the kind of room that makes you feel welcomed right away. Our colors were gold and white, and our vision of simple but elegant was beautifully put together. The food was also incredible. Our guests absolutely loved the food, and it was the best food we have ever had at a wedding.
To all the staff at il Tulipano, thank you so much for giving us the most wonderful experience. We had such a great time, and we wish we could relive all of the fun we had!
The professionalism, the excellent service, and the overall genuineness really stands out at il Tulipano. Even after our reception they wanted to make sure that we were happy and that we enjoyed the night. Thank you so much!
My husband and I were very please and happy about this venue! Service was top notch. Gina, our wedding planner, made an executive last minute decision that helped us make the reception much more memorable. Everything came out just like we wanted. Thank you!!
Cris&Lys.
My husband and I were married here last month and I will try to keep this description short and sweet. We worked with Don...he was very accommodating, helpful and made a nervous bride (and father of the bride) feel at ease. The food...never ending and simply amazing (cocktail hour and Viennese hour are the most amazing thing you’ll come across). The staff...professional and top notch. I must take a quick second and rave about my Bridal Attendant, Veronica. She never left my side and was always one step ahead of me...I can’t say enough nice things about her! And last but not least..the venue itself...beautiful, lavish, exquisite, elegant and I could go on forever. Bottom line...il Tulipano is a perfect venue and will give you the wedding that every bride (and groom) dreams of!
Il Tulipano was fantastic and I would highly recommend it to anyone getting married in the NY/NJ area. The venue itself is beautiful, the staff is extremely helpful and accommodating (The maitre d was even able to fix one of my bridesmaids' dresses minutes before the reception!), and the food is outstanding. The whole process from booking the venue to the ceremony and reception was extremely simple and easy. I could not speak highly enough of this venue.
From the first time we walked in to the time we left, Chris and the rest of the staff were friendly and accommodating. Every square foot of the venue is beautiful, and kept in stellar condition. The flow from our outdoor ceremony to cocktail hour/reception, through a stellar Venetian hour created great atmosphere refreshment as the night progressed. The food at cocktail hour left our guests speechless and it kept getting better. Sunday, our bridal attendant was friendly, sweet, and on top of everything! Our expectations for the night were set very high going in, and they were exceeded in every aspect. Can't say enough about how great this venue is, just wow.
Il Tulipano was exceptional! I am so glad we chose them! From the day we walked in to see the venue up until the very end they were great to work with. Both Donald and Chris were super helpful , organized and always very responsive with any kinds of questions we had. The place is immaculate and the outside is great for pictures. The day of our wedding our guests couldn't believe the amount of food and the quality of food just at cocktail hour alone! The dinner, cake and all of the desserts were also very impressive and the bar was top notch and packed all night. The next day our guests could not stop talking about how amazing Il Tulipano was and how good the food was! Veronica was my bridal attendant and she was the absolute best! The moment I walked in she really took care of me, she helped me with my dress, shoes and made sure that we sat down to eat! Everything from start to finish was perfect! Thanks again Il Tulipano, our wedding was a dream come true!
From our first visit through our wedding day, working with the amazing staff at il Tulipano was the best I could ask for. The cocktail hour still has people talking. The whole staff was remarkable and accommodating. On our wedding day, we got rained out of our original site for pictures and they opened the venue up to us to utilize, tending to our every need from the moment we entered the doors. Thank you again Chris and staff for all you did!
Absolutely incredible from the moment we called to make an appointment to the days following the wedding. Chris was incredible and extremely helpful throughout the process. He understood what we wanted and made sure all was above and beyond our expectations. The food was excellent, the waiters/waitresses were great...the entire staff was great! We were beyond happy at the end of the process. Thanks il Tulipano!!
Thank you il Tulipano for giving us our dream wedding how we pictured it to be. Our Matre D Chris was beyond amazing. From service, to honesty, to suggestions, he's the one you have to hope you end up with to help you plan out the whole thing. Great communication and people skills. The food, wow, believe the hype when you hear or read about the amazing food serve at this place. We highly reccomend that you get the dessert hour because it was a huge hit at our wedding. Its a WIlly Wonka wonderland how they set everything up and everyone loved it so much. We visited many venues but we are so glad we went with il Tulipano. Thank you Chris for making it so great!
My Daughter, Francesca and Devin were married on February 16, 2018. Devin is in the military which required us to change the wedding date from Dec. 1 to Feb. 16. Donald Longo from Il Tulipano worked with us until we were able to commit to a date, finalize all details and more... The venue is beautiful and the celebration was everything we wanted and more. All our feedback was extremely positive. Food was delicious and staff was attentive to everyone. The Bride and Groom were spoiled with attention - perfect! I wanted a wedding we would never forget and Il Tulipano helped us achieve this. We are very thankful to them.
We got married here January 12, which was nothing short of the best day of our lives! Not only did they do an amazing job everyone told us how amazing the food was, which can be a small concern because how can you cook every meal perfectly. Well the cocktail hour blew us and our guests away and the dinner also did so! I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone I know!! We worked with Chris, who was amazing from the day we met him to the day of our wedding. You will not be disappointed by choosing Iltulipano.
The best decision we made was to make Iltulipano our wedding venue.
Il Tulipano made our wedding day incredible. Our family and friends are still taking about the food and the chocolate fountain! There's no place quite like it. The food, dessert, service etc. are all of superb quality. A grand yet intimate venue where you have the whole place to yourself for your wedding. We were married November 25 and the grounds/entire setting are stunning in our photos. Thank you Chris and Il Tulipano staff!
My husband and I got married November 24th and had our reception at Il Tulipano. Our wedding day was truly a fairytale! When we got to Il Tulipano, everyday was AMAZING! The food, the service, everything!! Our families have been calling our parents RAVING about the food. I can not say enough good things about Il Tulipano. We worked with Chris and he did an awesome job keeping in touch with us and getting things done. If you are looking for a venue and love AMAZING food, Il Tulipano is the place!!
I just had my wedding here on Saturday and I could not say enough good things!! everything was absolutely perfect. Chris was fantastic from beginning to end. The day of was amazing Victoria my bridal assistant even helped me sow my dress that ripped TWICE the food the details everything was PERFECT!!!!! thank you for the most perfect day!!!
I cannot say enough good things about il Tulipano. They were the absolute perfect choice for my November wedding! Debbie, Chris and the entire team were helpful and responsive with every question I had throughout the process, and made wonderful recommendations throughout the planning process. They were very flexible with us, and their #1 priority was always to do what would make us and our guests happy on the big day. The day of went so smoothly...it was a completely stress-free wedding day for my groom, family and I! My wedding was two weeks ago and guests are still calling us to rave about the event - many calling it the greatest wedding they've ever been to. The food was abundant and delicious, the hospitality was warm, and all guests felt so well taken care of. Every aspect of the night went off flawlessly, and I cannot thank the team at il Tulipano enough for making my wedding day nothing less than perfect!!
I cannot even begin to express how perfect our wedding day was. We were married on the evening of 11/11/2017. From the moment we walked in the door everything was flawless! Chris was fantastic in helping to plan every aspect of our wedding. He was always available to answer any questions I had. Veronica the bridal attendant was AMAZING she even helped to keep me warm while taking photos outside. Everyone at il Tulipano went above and beyond to be sure that not only myself and husband were satisfied but guests as well. I HIGHLY recommend il Tulipano to any couples out there who want the perfect wedding day!
The day that we stepped into il Tulipano for the initial tour, we booked our wedding and ceremony there on the spot. Our wedding was 11/11/17 and it was absolutely perfect. We did an inside ceremony because it was cold and it was beautiful. The
cocktail hour food was to die for, all our guests could not believe that there was a 3 course meal to follow!! Everyone loved the food. The reception was beautiful. The ballroom looked so great. The entire staff was unbelievable. Gregory helped us every step of the way. Carol was fantastic and my bridal attendant was a dream. She made sure we were eating and had a drink in our hands the entire night. My husband and i would highly recommend to any couple to absolutely consider having their wedding here if they want a flawless wedding day. Thank you il Tulipano for our dream wedding!!!!!!
My husband and I had our wedding ceremony and reception at il Tulipano this past summer. I can’t say enough good things about the staff here! Working with Chris throughout the planning process was a pleasure. He was very responsive to emails and phone calls and always answered any questions I had. Everything went so smoothly the day of our wedding, and all of the little details we had spoken about were executed perfectly! Our bridal attendant took such great care of us and made sure we had time to eat. The food was amazing. Our guests are still talking about how delicious the food was and how beautiful the venue was! We can’t thank the staff of il Tulipano enough for helping to create our beautiful wedding day! We definitely recommend this venue!
Our October 21st wedding was absolutely amazing from start to finish. From the moment we met Donald & his team they made sure everything was perfect and exactly how we wanted. The venue is beautiful, the food is amazing, & Veronica the bridal attendant was out of this world! I would highly recommend il Tulipano !!
Our October 5th wedding was everything we could have ever dreamed of and more! Greg Jr. and his staff made sure that everything was perfect. Our guests are still raving about the food, especially the elaborate cocktail hour and elaborate Viennese hour! We highly recommend Il Tulipano to everyone wanting to make sure their special day is truly magical!
The venue was beautiful and the food was amazing. Our guests were more than impressed they were wowed!!
An absolute top-notch venue for our wedding day - feedback from our guests was that it was the classiest wedding they've been too in terms of ambiance, the people, the food was the best they've had at a wedding and it was plentiful, and the staff was super attentive like a 5 star restaurant. Donald Longo, our sales/venue manager, at il Tulipano was always on top of every single detail and responded to emails 24/7 on any questions we had prior to our wedding day - would highly recommend going through him if you are looking for a venue manager who will be ultra-responsive and provide great suggestions as well.
As for the venue itself, it was perfect. The outdoor ceremony section, the newly built patio and indoor cocktail hour section, along with the reception dance area (with a beautiful black marble dance floor), and the Viennese hour room deserve high compliments. If you're looking for a place that has a warm feeling - this is it. We had the opportunity to use all areas of the venue and our guests loved seeing the different areas too.
We also had the opportunity to meet one of the owners, Gregory, who was the best and a true business owner. il Tulipano is a family-owned business so they truly put out there best for their clients - and I have very high standards to begin with. My wife even loved her bridal attendant, Thea. She was always there for her and made her day much easier - she took care of her dress, got us food and drinks when we wanted them, and more - we couldn't have asked for better personnel.
There is a lot more we could compliment on il Tulipano and its staff and we have no complaints whatsoever - they made our wedding day the best day ever! In short, if you want a classy venue, the best food from cocktail hour to reception to Viennese hour, and top service from soup-to-nuts - il Tulpiano wins by landslide. We'd even consider going back here for hosting future parties with our friends & family.
Il Tulipano truly made my wedding a dream come true. Chris and Donald made sure that everything was perfect and decorated just how we wanted it for our special day. Our bridal attendant Sunday was absolutely amazing , she did everything that was asked of her and more to make sure my husband and I had a stress free evening.
Il Tulipano was the absolute perfect place for us to celebrate our wedding day. We would not have asked for a better experience.
I got married at il Tulipano Sept 2017. Words do not describe how phenomenal of a job the entire staff did! Our bridal attendant was Althea, she was out of this world!! The day was beyond perfect thanks to her.
Everything was perfect from the ceremony area to cocktail hour to the reception. The food here is OUT OF THIS WORLD AMAZING! The baker there make our cake and that too was soooo good! Our guests still talk about the extravagant cocktail hour food. They fill two rooms with all the food you can possibly image plus have passed hors devours. I highly recommend this venue. The entire staff will go above and beyond any expectations you may have!
I could not have had a better place for my wedding !! WOW .
Elegant and incredible! Chris made the process easy , The place is stunning and so beautiful! Every detail was perfect all because of the staff and their clear concern for our happiness and enjoyment ! Sunday and Carol took such good care of us. The food is outstanding, everyone raved about it ! The cake was perfect in every way! they truly go out of their way to ensure an amazing event !
Thank You All at Il Tulipano!
Amazing and wonderful experience having our wedding at Il Tulipano. Chris Ryter was a dream to work with, he was always on top of everything and always there to help when needed throughout the entire process. The food was amazing, everything ran smoothly and I never had to worry about something being forgotten or ignored. The in-house bridal attendant Sunday was also wonderful and I can't thank her and Chris enough for making my day so special! The ballroom upstairs is beyond gorgeous, everything is clean and beautiful, the Viennese room is also beautiful, the cocktail hour room and veranda and outside space are all gorgeous. What also makes this place so amazing is that there's only ever one wedding going on at a time, so they are focused on you for the entire day. The in-house pastry chef made my beautiful cake which exceeded my expectations and matched the photo I provided exactly. Thank you again to everyone at Il Tulipano SO MUCH!!
My husband and I got married at il Tulipano on July 22nd. I was preparing myself to expect some things to go wrong throughout the day/night but EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT from start to finish. Chris was so helpful and was always willing to answer questions and give his best advice/suggestions throughout the entire planning process. The bridal attendants were always within reach, ensuring that I always had a drink and that my lipstick was always freshly applied for pictures, dances, speeches, etc. Weeks later, we still have family and friends raving over the venue and the food. I would HIGHLY recommend il Tulipano to any and every bride and groom who are looking for an AMAZING venue that your guests will rave over for weeks/months to come :)
il Tulipano exceeded all of our expectations! From start to finish, Chris was always available to answer questions and made the entire process smooth and enjoyable.
The bridal attendant, Veronica, was beyond perfect. From always making sure that I always had a full drink, to ensuring my dress never got dirty, and being on hand for what ever we needed, we couldn't have asked for anyone better!
Our guests are still raving about the quality and quantity of the food from the cocktail hour all the way through the venetian hour.
We highly recommend this venue and only hope we can go back as guest someday :)
il Tulipano was everything and more. I couldn't be happier with our choice. Everything was exactly how we wanted and the food was amazing! Our guests couldn't stop talking about how great the food was and how awesome the staff was on the day of our wedding. Chris was a pleasure to work with and was always available to answer all of our questions. I would highly recommend il Tulipano! Their outside patio and deck is beautiful for pictures and had us feeling like we were in Italy! The bridal assistant, Thea, was a pleasure to have as well. She was there to provide us with food, assistance with my dress, anything you needed she was there to help. Our wedding was exactly what we pictured it to be all thanks to il Tulipano!
What an amazing and unforgettable experience at the place of my dreams! Chris helped us from beginning to end making everything impeccable. He helped us figure out what we wanted and constantly followed up with us letting us know about what was going on. The venue recently remodeled their outdoor area and everything was perfect for our wedding. The food was out of this world I don't even know how to describe it but not one person had anything negative to say. The wedding attendants are very attentive to detail fixing my hair my dress for pictures and keep us on time. The Viennese hour was incredible people had never seen such a fantastic setup. Overall I would recommend this place and their team to everyone looking for an amazing place for a great deal.
Throughout all the potential issues and pitfalls of our wedding planning, we never had a single doubt that Chris from il Tulipano would make sure absolutely every detail was perfect. True to his word, our night was incredible. The space was beautiful and our guests are STILL talking about the food. We never wanted for anything during the night. It's the best decision we made!
-Anthony and Erin 5/20/2017
Absolutely stunning, the food was amazing, and everything went off without a hitch. Our friends and family still cannot stop raving about our wedding here.
Il Tulipano was the second venue we visited out of 10 and I knew we would be back. From when we first met with Chris I knew it would be a smooth process and he would be on top of everything. Our wedding day was everything we imagined it would be! From perfect weather to perfect service it was great! Chris was so helpful with everything and so were our maître d and bridal attendant... they kept us moving and made sure we ate! Everyone is still raving about the food and most people were from Staten Island and Brooklyn where they are used to great Italian food!
My husband and I had our amazing reception at il Tulipano. From the moment we toured the venue we felt it was the perfect place to celebrate with our family and friends on our wedding day. They were so accommodating and helpful throughout the entire process. The entire staff is extremely professional and are willing to go above and beyond for you and your guests. Being the only wedding at the venue lets you know that you and your guests will be fully focused on. The grounds are beautiful, the food is out of this world and the Viennese hour will be the talk of everyone who has a sweet tooth! We would highly recommend anyone book their wedding day at il Tulipano and look forward to being able to go back and celebrate with others one day!
We worked with Chris at Il Tulipano and he was great at keeping in touch with us and getting everything done that we asked for. Anything we needed done or asked for, was able to be accomplished. The staff at Il Tulipano are fantastic and you can tell they really care about making your day perfect! They were so easy to work with, from dropping our stuff off early, to having it all boxed up for us to take home the following day, they really delivered on service. Our guests are still talking about how great the service was throughout the night and how amazing the food is!! We had our ceremony inside due to chilly weather. The skylights really let in a ton of natural light, and I added some candles, lanterns, and rose petals, and the space turned out beautiful. I had my own personal bridal attendant who looked out for me the whole night, from getting me a drink and carrying my purse, to bustling my dress. The food is delicious, and they offer everything you could ever want, and more, as far as options go. We had zero complaints having our wedding with Il Tulipano and would recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding venue that has it all!!
This venue was amazing!!!! All night long everyone told how amazing the food was and how they loved it there! We had our ceremony outside and we couldn't be happier! The cocktail hour has so much food that our guest didn't know what to eat first! Everything was what we expected and more! Thank you to the entire staff!
Absolute perfection! My husband and I had our wedding at Il Tulipano this past weekend. It truly was a dream come true. Chris and his staff went above and beyond for us. Our guests were so impressed with every detail. Coming from traditional Italian families, we were pleased to hear every single guest rave about the quality and quantity of the food. I would recommend Il Tulipano to any bride and groom looking for a place to have their wedding. Thank you to the entire staff for making our day unforgettable!
Dave and I couldn't have been more happy with our wedding reception at il Tulipano on January 21, 2017! Chris and the entire staff walked us through the whole process and made us feel right at home. They were extremely organized
