My husband and I are beyond happy we choose Lucien's as our wedding venue. The service and support we got from the whole team at Lucien's from the very first tour to the actual night of the wedding was impeccable. When we booked we were told that there were going to be renovations happening, they were all completed by the date of our wedding and it was so pretty! Anything we wanted to do or change they accommodated. The whole process was seamless and easy. We had so many guest talking about our cocktail hour, dinner, & dessert spread that was offered!
At Enchanted Celebrations, we absolutely love working at Lucien’s Manor! Working at Lucien’s is always such a wonderful experience as a vendor. The staff is always such a joy to work with there. The gorgeous grounds and beautiful foyer set them apart from the rest and provide for so many different spots to take stunning photos. From the staff to the to the countless photo opportunities, every wedding is nothing short of amazing. As a wedding vendor, we cannot recommend them enough! If you are searching for a venue that can truly do it all, then look no further!
We had an amazing wedding at Lucien’s! Everything from the chapel, ballroom, food, staff, cocktail hour was beyond our expectations. We cannot recommend Lucien’s enough! We would give 10 stars if we could.
Any questions?
We are so thankful that we chose Lucien's for our wedding. When we were searching for venues, we were blown away with everything that was included during cocktail hour, dinner, desserts, and post-reception snacks at Lucien's - it was too good to refuse.
Cristina was amazing - she was so helpful, professional, and sweet in the weeks/months leading up to the wedding. Matt was awesome during the rehearsal and reception - he made sure our bridal party knew exactly what to do during the ceremony and helped the day flow without any issues. The ceremony space and the La Grande ballroom were beautiful - everything was set up exactly how we asked, every small detail was hit! We received so many compliments from our guests about the venue, the quality/abundance of food, and the great cocktails.
Shannon and Ashley were so helpful during the cocktail hour and reception - they were there to help us whenever we needed it. The team at Lucien's is friendly, professional, and flexible. It is obvious that they want to make your big day as special and smooth as possible.
Thank you for helping host a night that we will never forget!
Our wedding guests are still talking about the food! Lucien's did an amazing job of coordinating, catering, and hosting our wedding. We were very busy in the time leading up to our wedding and it was great knowing that food, drinks, the cake, and general coordination was being taken care of by them. On the day of the bridal attendant was critical to Making sure everything ran smoothly for us - it was like stangecraft. And other great thing is that the Interiors are so ornate that you don't need that much in the way of decor other than flowers.
I don’t think there is enough space for me to rave about how much we loved our wedding with Lucien’s. We still keep hearing from guests how amazing the food, venue and wait staff were. From Cristina helping us from day one planning and answering all of our questions…to rehearsal and day of coordinator Matt being so awesome and keeping the day fun for us, especially when he had to run and grab the rings from our suite. Ashley, Wendy, and Ken were incredible at getting us anything we needed and sticking with us the entire day. And our bartender Brian had our guests laughing all night. It sounds silly, but if we could get married over and over again with the same crew, we would! Thank you for all your help in making it the best day EVER!
Celebrated our wedding at Lucien’s in the La Grande room in July 2023. Everything from the moment we arrived to the last guest leaving was absolutely spectacular! We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding day. The staff were incredibly attentive, friendly, and accommodating. Would especially like to give a big thank you to Jake, Robin, Cristina, Matt, Wendy, and Jon who went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable. They are true professionals, thinking of every single detail and making the entire process so easy and seamless. All of guests have been raving about the unbelievable ambiance and delicious food. Could not recommend Lucien’s enough if you’re looking for a magical wedding experience.
Lucien’s is such a stunning venue and their team is a perfect compliment. Since day one, they have been flexible, easy to work with and so so helpful throughout each stage of planning. Our wedding day was perfect. We primarily worked with Robin and Cristina, mostly Cristina and she was an absolute dream to work with. My bridal attendant on the day was so kind and helpful and I cannot express enough how much the Lucien’s staff has helped our dreams come to life. All of our guests continue to rave about how good the food was from cocktail hour to dessert, it was amazing! Everyone couldn’t believe how breathtakingly stunning each room was and it truly made the day so magical. You won’t regret having your wedding here!!!
We had our wedding at Lucien’s on 11/4 and it was absolutely incredible. The entire Lucien’s team worked so hard to give us the most perfect day and it showed. The venue is stunning, the food incredible, and the Lucien’s team is truly amazing. We’ve had so many people tell us it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to. Our coordinator (Cristina) and our bridal attendant (Shannon) were the absolute best to work with!!!
Absolutely AMAZING.
We had our wedding reception at this venue and honestly I could not have asked for a better service and care! We absolutely loved every single minute. Thanks to the amazing staff for making sure that we had the wedding of our dreams!
Lucien's created the wedding reception of my dreams! I barely had to lift a finger to ensure that every detail was perfect! I was less than organized and they managed to help me and worked with me to create a beautiful event! I would highly recommend having your events here if you want to wow your guests with amazing food, elegant ambiance, and friendly service!
Our wedding at Lucien's was absolutely magical and perfect in every way! The day went so smoothly, and they got every detail right. The entire staff was a huge help, and they made sure to take care of me and the groom the whole night. The food was delicious, and there was so much of it! Everything was just perfect!
This is a couple months late now but I thought certain things from my experience were worth mentioning.
I got married here last November 2021.
We had a cultural reception.
To start off, I had a very stressful time during the pandemic with the staff at this venue.
I had booked this venue right before everything shut down in 2020. It was agreed in our contract that the 30% deposit will be waived and all final deposits after the 1st and 2nd deposits will be made 7 days prior to the event date. They came around asking for the 30% deposit claiming it was because of "covid".
I had a horrible experience the day of the event. The Maitre'D and bridal attendants had absolutely no idea what was going on, my preferences, they literally were asking the groom for everything. 7 days prior to the event I made a trip to Luciens and conveyed all of my preferences to the person coordinating my event (I will be nice and leave names out). Absolutely nothing was conveyed to the bridal attendants and maitre'd.
On top of everything, this was a cultural wedding, not a traditional wedding and I made sure to communicate this to the Luciens staff coordinating my event. I had told them that if there are any questions, to speak to my father as the main point of contact on the day of-yet all questions were directed to the groom and his family, who were clueless because shocker, they did not know any details.
We had asked that tea cups be placed on the tables and it was agreed upon and written down in my file when I made the final 7 days prior visit. When I walked into the ballroom, there were no tea cups on the tables.
The cake table was placed at the opposite end of the banquet hall, despite me confirming in multiple emails that I wanted it next to the stage off to the side.
The worst part-I had gotten these beautiful program cards printed out with gold foiling detail, which was physically given to Luciens 7 days prior to set out for the guests on each table and THEY FORGOT. Now, they did reimburse us for the cost of the cards but this does not make it all better. I was looking forward to those details being videographed.
I rarely leave reviews-I'm sorry but this is a no. And I do want to reiterate this place is absolutely beautiful; all of their ballrooms are breathtaking which is why I chose it. The landscapes are also beautiful. Also beware, the price you pay here INCLUDES the landscapes/waterfalls/bridge they have on their property. But guess what? You'll be limited to use it if there is a wedding in daylight before you. They will get first dibs on the pergola and everything for pictures. So you're just sitting there pushing your program off to get some pictures in the area you paid for.
The management is absolutely atrocious. My idea was that they do not take more than 2 weddings a day, one in the morning and one in evening so that at least everyone can get the pictures they want and paid for-something that most well-established venues committed to good service do
Let's not mention the fact that I did not get any good pictures on the outside premises, which is one of the biggest reasons I chose this venue.
To say the least our biggest day was made so stressful by Luciens.
I'm not saying don't do your events there-but be mindful that you need like 2 people committed to checking everything 10 TIMES the day of the event. What a mess.
Response from the Vendor on 03/28/2022
Hi Sana,
Thank you for taking the time to write such a detailed review. It is our top priority to make sure all bridal belongings are tripled checked by the Event Specialist and Maitre D. We are sorry to see this review as we were under a diff...
erent impression according to our emails together.
Concerning the stressful time during the pandemic, that was an unprecedented time for all parties as we had no prior reference on how to handle the unknown circumstances. We were being advised that by October we would be able to host events at a limited capacity. We did however move your date to the same weekend in 2021 without any additional fees or charges. The additional deposit was added due to moving the wedding a full year away, but just to clarify this payment was NEVER collected. We continued to plan and consult on your wedding the entire year with minimal deposits, and we were happy to do so.
The Maitre D’ and Bridal attendants who are both professionals in running traditional weddings were given conflicting information from various family members as well as taking direction from vendors and event staff. Cristina, the event specialist, was in constant communication with your dad and even guided the opening of a separate prayer room as a courtesy.
Your signed contract reads “COFFEE STATION” in the beverage requirements which is what we supplied.
The programs were an oversight, and we took accountability for that. So much so that we refunded double the value of what you paid for them. To be accurate and fair, it was the ONLY item you provided to Lucien’s. Your decorators brought everything else on the day of.
We communicated the timing of pictures with you well before the day of the wedding. The other wedding taking place had an earlier start time and were on schedule to get pictures at the time you wanted to arrive. All parties who arrive earlier than the contracted start time understand that flexible would need to be flexible with the locations of your pictures. You were to start at 5:30pm but because your photographer recommended an earlier arrival as not to lose sunlight, we accommodated that request. We do this because we are in the hospitality business, and we understand the importance of your photos. Keep in mind that it gets darker earlier in November, so this is a variable that is out of our control.
We always welcome a fair and honest review from all clients. We strive for perfection and when we fail, we look for ways to correct our mistakes.
This review does come by surprise because your dad sent a follow up email after the wedding saying “Indeed it was a great event on Sunday 11/21/21. We all enjoyed it. Thanks for helping out to realize it.”
Lucien’s was a 10/10 experience from start to finish!! As you know, searching for a venue can be an exciting yet overwhelming experience. We met with Robin from Lucien’s and she was so welcoming and friendly. She really made us feel like we were family. Robin went over everything in detail and showed us the entire venue. We didn’t feel rushed and, most importantly, she gave us a lot of information without overwhelming us. She was great about listening to our budget and offering options that worked for us. She never made us feel pressured to make a decision and was constantly in contact with us after our meeting answering all the questions that came up along the way.
Unfortunately, like so many other people, we had to make the decision to postpone our wedding due to Covid. During such a difficult time and trying to make an impossible decision, the management at Lucien’s was so understanding and able to work with us. It was invaluable to have a venue that truly cares about delivering the day of your dreams and is willing to make you feel comfortable and supported throughout the whole process. I worked primarily with Cristina and Peggy as our wedding date approached and they were amazing!! Anytime I emailed them, I always heard back within the day and they answered all of my questions and constantly offered to call me if I had more questions. It was so helpful to know they were on top of everything and we truly never had to worry about anything.
The weeks leading up to the wedding, I was able to meet with Peggy and was able to see the room again and plan everything out I had been envisioning for months. She never made me feel pressured and always offered to have me back anytime I wanted to see the room and plan for anything I wanted. The week of the wedding, I dropped everything off at Lucien’s and I felt a huge weight lifted off of me because I knew they were going to take care of everything.
The day of the wedding was perfect. The moment I stepped foot off the party bus, I was greeted by my maître D and assistant walking around with me during pictures and taking care of everything. I was truly blown away. One of the best parts of Lucien’s is their bridal suit. After a long morning and day, our bridal party was able to go to the bridal suit upon arrival and get all the food and drinks we wanted. During the entire wedding, we were treated like royalty and it was truly an amazing experience. There were no points leading up to the wedding or on the day itself where I had to worry about anything….and that was the best feeling!! Their cocktail hour was incredible. I still have people talking about the food!! The dinner and dessert was 10/10 as well! The day after the wedding, my husband said he wants us to get married again just so we can go back to Lucien’s!!
My now-husband and I looked at seven venues in NJ and PA and none of them wowed us until we stumbled upon Lucien’s Manor. Our wedding was spectacular. We postponed from May 2021 to November 2021 because of COVID and wound up with a few dozen less people than we were contracted for, but the Lucien’s team—with fabulous banquet manager Cristina at the helm—worked with us every step of the way. As a bride or groom, you don’t want to have to worry about a thing when you arrive at your venue on your wedding day, and we didn’t have to. Lucien’s has done countless weddings of all types, and it shows. Not to mention the venue is beautiful, and the food…THE FOOD! People are going to be talking about the food for years to come, I’m sure. I truly can’t imagine getting married anywhere else.
My daughter’s wedding was just this past weekend (October 30, 2021) and we had chosen Lucien’s Manor (Berlin NJ) as the venue.
As the father of the bride, you want to do everything that you can to provide the most perfect wedding that you can for your daughter. Lucien’s ensured that I was able to do that and at an incredibly reasonable cost!
Every single staff member we encountered was incredibly helpful. It reminded me of a Disney property in that all of the “cast” are charged with making your experience very personal and exceptional. Everyone had smiles and you never heard the word “no”. Everyone went out of their way to make you feel special.
Christina (our wedding coordinator) walked us through the process of how to plan the day and picking the menu, etc. She was absolutely fabulous, even ensuring a last-minute cake “issue” was rectified in plenty of time for the event. She made my daughter (the bride) totally confident that everything would be handled.
Matt (the “Day-Of” coordinator) worked closely with us during the rehearsal (and helped with instructions to the out-of-town Bridal party members who missed the actual rehearsal). The day of the event went perfectly as he kept everything on-time and running smoothly. He also ensured we had everything ready to be picked up post-event the next day.
Wendy the Maître D’ and Emmy the Bridal Attendant, managed to service my guests and my daughter with a friendly smile and superior customer service, attending to our every need / request. Kim, the server responsible for my particular table, was a superstar.
Of special mention, Brian and Tony were the most efficient and friendly bartenders in recent experience. There was never a line at the bar (and our guests like to drink!) and they were really hustling. They really helped make the event special.
The staff at Lucien’s made me look like a genius as my guests remarked at how it was the absolute best wedding they have ever been to, from the venue itself (spectacularly beautiful), the staff (amazingly friendly and helpful) and the quality and quantity of food (that Cocktail Hour wowed EVERYONE!). Guest were remarking that it had to be a $100,000 event…but look to Lucien’s to see how budget-friendly it really is.
At the end of the day, my daughter got her dream wedding thanks to the staff of Lucien’s. It truly was PERFECT.
ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!! Luciens made my wedding day amazing. they are so organized, they made me feel so comfortable with the whole process from going over the ceremony to making sure I knew my centerpieces were going to be correct. I can't put into words how amazing the staff is my bridal attendant made sure my husband and I ALWAYS had what we needed, found us constantly to make sure everything was going good, fixed my bustle, even helped me go to the bathroom! They were even dancing while serving desert I loved every minute of it. We couldn't have asked for a better night at such a beautiful place with friendly people!
Wow, wow, wow - cristina was our event coordinator and I cannot even begin to state how much I love her! She was ALWAYS available to answer my questions, provide suggestions and reassured me that everything was going to be perfect. And she was right!!! She went above and beyond to work with us on exactly what we wanted for our special day. steve was our Maitre D and Natalie was our bridal attendant. Everytime I turned around, natalie was there to help me with anything I had needed. She was super sweet and very patient. Steve made sure everything ran smoothly and had a great personality. He even designated a person to be my sisters (MOH) side to assist with whatever she needed. Everyone raved about the food and the bartenders (Tony!). Lucien’s really took care of us and I cannot thank them enough, not one bad thing to say!!!
Overall, having our wedding at Lucien’s was a wonderful experience. It was in the Venetian Ballroom, which is their medium sized ballroom located upstairs. The room is absolutely stunning, Lucien’s provides their own uplighting so you don’t have to pay for it through your DJ, the food and drink package came with literally everything you could ever imagine, the food was outstanding and the service was top notch. Also, gold chiavari chairs are included, which other venues make you pay 7 dollars a chair for. Lucien’s team was so supportive and kept in constant contact with us in the weeks leading up to the wedding. We had various final and pre-final meetings in the two weeks right before the wedding where we went over all final details and questions. My contact at Lucien’s was Christina, was SO friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable, and honestly felt like a longtime friend. Christina made all of our meetings move along quickly and she was the best person to contact whenever I was stressed about anything regarding the wedding. She calmed me down instantly and put things in perspective. Lucien’s event coordinator, Matt, ran our rehearsal and was extremely professional and informative. He didn’t miss a beat. He told us every detail and ran through the ceremony about 4 times with us at rehearsal. He told us the tiniest details including how to have the guys stand and position their hands when at the front of the chapel to which tiles to stop at when walking down the aisle. Our drop off day (all of our decor) went so smooth and seamless. Christina had labels for all of our things and had a whole room to organize our things in. When we arrived to Lucien’s on our wedding day, Christina and Matt greeted me as soon as I stepped off of the party bus. We only ran into one hiccup, which was that our bridal suite was VERY Hot. They turned on the AC but I guess it took a while to get going, they had to move our bridal suite until the room cooled down. Our ceremony was a dream, Christina and Matt made sure all of my guests were in place and that late arrivals didn’t interfere with my entrance. Christina was with me to the point where she helped the bridal attendant fluff my dress right before I walked down the aisle with my dad. My Bridal attendant, Karina, was so sweet and so helpful. She was next to us every second, holding my bouquet, grabbing us things we needed, bringing us water and food after the ceremony when we were taking pictures, and overall checking on us all night. Seeing all of my ideas and decor come to life in Lucien’s ballroom was truly a dream. I could not have imagined a more beautiful space to celebrate in. My family and friends have not stopped talking about it, 2 weeks later. Everyone was anxiously waiting for the photos because we truly all had the time of our lives. I am so happy that I chose Luciens. Not only for the spectacular ballroom, ceremony space, gardens and bridge, but also for the large assortment of food and stations during cocktail hour, the amazing dinner selections, and array of desserts and specialty dessert stations after cake cutting. My guests were blown away!
From start to finish, Lucien’s is there for you to make sure your day is amazing. The food is great, the service is great and the space is beautiful!!
Due to corona virus 19 governer close down the Lucien's Manor and they can not perform the wedding reception, They are not returning my deposit amount of $9000 which we sign for the wedding reception and marriage date of July 5, 2020.
The only option they are giving me is re scasual the date upto next year. The dates they are offering is not suitable to us and they do not want to compromise anything as they have our deposit money of $9000.
They are very unprofessional as they never inform us about their unability to perform the contract they sign, and qoating no refund policy in their written contract which they can not complete.
Very professional staff! They have been helpful and organized with all the little details needed to make my day special. The venue is simply breathtaking. From the outdoor flowers, the little bridge to the ceremony room. Just AH-MAZING!!!
Everyone at Lucien's helped make our day incredibly special. It was seamless. The food and service is outstanding. We were in the Versailles room and it is stunningly beautiful. Everyone is still talking about how amazing our wedding was and how impressive Lucien's is. We can't thank them enough for such a perfect reception! They even helped with my bustle! I will recommend Lucien's to everyone!
Lucien’s was accommodating and very helpful throughout the whole wedding process. They handled the whole night perfectly.
Lucien’s was a dream from start to finish. They made all of our wedding dreams come true. The cocktail hour was amazing! I have a big italian family and they LOVE food and everyone raved about the food and drinks. The reception was beautiful and everything went perfectly, literally not one thing went wrong! Robin was so helpful from the very beginning. She was seriously the best! Christina was also so helpful when we ran late and couldn’t see Robin. Such a wonderful staff! You will have no regrets booking with Luciens! (&the pictures came out AMAZING!)
My wedding was everything i dreamed of. Thanks to Lucien’s and all there staff for there amazing service. The venue it’s self is breathtaking! My wedding was on 10-11-19 and I’m still receiving compliments on how beautiful everything was. Again thanks so much!!
Lucien's was absolutely incredible for our wedding. Nichole helped make my dreams come to life for my wedding day. She was able to customize some of the things that I wanted during cocktail hour and throughout the night to make our wedding more personal to us. Amanda and Michelle were our go to people and they did a phenomenal job! From holding my dress and veil while walking around for pictures, to making sure our drinks were never empty, to helping us get into the room early for pictures and sneak peaks. The night was absolutely incredible, the food was phenomenal, and the room was set up beautifully. Our bartenders were on point slinging drinks like no tomorrow, there was never a wait for drinks. We got nothing but compliments about our day from friends and family. Definitely a decision you won't regret for an upcoming wedding or event.
The staff at Lucien's are absolutely AMAZING. The only poor thing I'll say and I'm sure it's for most venues is READ YOUR CONTRACT!!! You will not get ANY money back that you give them. we learned this pretty rudely from Jake/Jacob, one of the managers. That being said, every other person who works there was hands down, the best set of staff you could ask for. They were so informative every step of the way. Christina and Robin were quick to respond through email for any questions we had. Kelly and Matt made our night OUSTANDING. There was not one second we had to do anything for ourselves. I'm so thankful to everyone there for making it a perfectly smooth night for everyone. The food was amazing, the cake was so delicious, and the rooms were clean and full of character. I'm so thankful that we picked Lucien's Manor. It was the best night of our lives and one for many to remember and talk about.
Lucien's did a phenomenal job from start to finish. Robin and the entire Lucien's team made our day absolutely perfect. We could not ask for a more perfect day.
Lucien’s did a fantastic job listening to our wants and needs. They set up the room beautifully and exactly as we pictured it. Every single worker there was so attentive and worked so hard to make us have an amazing night (even in 100+ weather). Couldn’t have imagined a better night and I would highly recommend them to every couple that is looking for a venue that caters to their every need.
If anyone is looking for a wedding venue, they should choose Lucien’s! Besides the beautiful chapel, ballrooms, and gardens, the staff is wonderful. They’ve been doing weddings and large catered events for a long time, and it sure does show. They have every little detail figured out. The Venetian bridal suite was roomy, the food was delicious, and cake was beautiful. My husband is Chinese and their chef worked with us to add authentic Asian cuisine to our cocktail hour and dinner (which turned out great). They did their best to make sure our wedding was exactly how we envisioned it. Robin really did a great job conveying all of our questions and visions. She has a great eye for detail which paired very well with our very specific and detailed agenda. She is a pleasure to talk to; knowing what we came to discuss and able to dive right in with little rehash. As our big date was getting closer, we actually looked forward to meeting with her to go over details because she was such a breath of fresh air. Looking back we wouldn’t change a thing!
My husband and I fell in love with Lucien's the second we stepped inside. We knew THIS was the venue that we wanted. Everything about Lucien's is perfect. The staff, especially our two maître d's, "the michelle's' were SO awesome. They made sure that my husband and I always had a drink or ate. The cocktail hour, the entrees and dessert our were so great. Our family and friend's loved everything about our day & say it was one of the best weddings that they have ever been to. I highly recommend Lucien's!

Wow!!! Totally blown away how awesome my daughter Brooke and Collin's wedding was.You truly made us feel like royalty....From the start working with Jacob was stress free-great to deal with.The new chapel was breathtaking -the cocktail room (Chantilli Room )was beautiful and the food was amazing everyone was wowed (some people thought that was it)-then we entered the Versailles Room which is beautiful amazing white glove service---sit down dinner was on point with seconds being offered...everyone raved about the food and service.Bartenders were fast and friendly Christo and Alyssa(thank you)...The maitre d' and bridal attendant James and Michelle P were the best -highly recommend(thank you)-Matt the manager made everything run so smooth with a smile from the rehearsal to the wedding day(thank you)----- highly recommend Luciens to all who want to have a unforgettable wedding ....month later still hearing rave reviews from friends also DJ Joe Bene total professional had the party dancing all night-------only downside was the Manager Ed who flipped out as the bridal party and mother of bride were heading to the chapel, not want you want to see before the biggest day of our daughters life.....(we did not pay for that)
I can't say not one negative thing about this venue. Everything was amazing. They cater to you from the moment you book with them up until your special day. Venue/decor is so beautiful, you don't need much decor when wedding planning. As simple as possible.
fgy u.n u
Seriously amazing!!! Our wedding was in the Grand Ballroom during The Christmas season and our wedding was absolutely beautiful!!! The service, decorations, drinks,food and staff were the best!!! We highly recommend Lucien’s for your wedding, it truly was magical!
I couldn’t picture my day being any more perfect. Thank you Lucien’s!
I got married at in the Venetian room on 11/23/18 and I cannot say enough wonderful things. Lucien's staff knows what they are doing. They completely take any stress away that you may have. They knew exactly how to create my vision. The food is absolutely delicious. People would not stop raving about the mac and cheese. The only negative thing I have to say is we heard multiple complaints about one of the female bartenders and how she treated guests and made their drinks. People ended up waiting in a longer line just to go to the other bartender who apparently was so helpful and made great drinks.
All in all, if you are looking for a venue that has it all definitely pick Lucien's!
I had my wedding there October 5th and they were great! Everything was done perfectly and we had a great day!
If I could give more stars, I would. My husband and I were married on September 22, 2018. I initially picked another venue because I had my heart set on being married on a body of water, like a lake. We signed the contract and put down the deposit and something just didn't feel right. I immediately called Lucien's and canceled the other venue because of their EXCEPTIONAL customer service. Words cannot express how amazing our experience was from start to finish. We worked with Jacob Miller throughout the planning process. He was absolutely wonderful. He was patient, accurate, and pin pointed my personality from the beginning. He was able to anticipate my needs and was always one step ahead of me. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and I wouldn't have changed a thing!!! All of the extra, special touches that I requested were all granted with a smile. All of my guests have been raving about the food and how much there was. No one went hungry! My cousin has Autism and became very over stimulated, so she hid under the table. The server knew that she really wanted cake. This server (mind you it was her second day on the job) was crawling under the table to serve her desserts and make sure she was okay. This meant so much to my family. All of the staff at Lucien's were phenomenal. Fellow Brides, trust me when I say that I am EXTREMELY particular and a perfectionist. Lucien's nailed it at every turn. I promise you that you will not be disappointed by booking this venue. The new outdoor chapel is stunning as well as every single ballroom. I wanted to feel like a princess and I got exactly that. I cannot thank Lucien's and their staff enough for an absolutely amazing wedding day!!! Thank you!!!
Lucien's was by far one of the best decisions my husband and I made! From the first meeting to the day after, Lucien's was nothing but amazing and professional. Our first meeting, Jacob kindly let us come in as he was setting up for a 500 person wedding, we truly got to see the staff in action, and it was a major reason we loved Lucien's even more! The grounds and ballrooms are gorgeous, the staff the day of the wedding was amazing. Especially Nina and Ed, Sean was also helping the bridal party the day of the wedding, and my guests are continuing to call saying all staff members were friendly, and made the night more enjoyable. Nina and another staff member even helped bustle my dress! The planning process was made simple, Nichole was very accommodating throughout the 14 months of planning, and Peggy was also very helpful! Now for the food, every wedding guest RAVED about the food, and we got multiple calls stating it was the best food they ever had at a wedding!! My husband and I cannot be more grateful for the experience, and for Lucien's on helping make our wedding unforgettable, and the best day ever!! I would HIGHLY recommend this venue for many many reasons!
We loved every minute of our wedding reception at Lucien's! First, the outdoor facade and gardens of the building are gorgeous, especially now that the renovations were nearing completion. The indoors is just as stunning, with chandeliers, fountains, and beautiful uplighting. The staff was courteous all night and our Maitre D was especially helpful and saw to it that all our needs were met throughout the night. The food...if only Lucien's had a delivery service...was incredible! From all the hors d'oeuvres, to our entrees, and the desert stations, it was like dining in a 5 star restaurant! Several different ballrooms are available, depending on the size of your event. The event staff is very knowledgable and will work with you closely while planning your event and making all your ideas come to life. We highly recommend Lucien's Manor for anyone looking to have a fabulous event that people will keep talking about for days to come!
My fiance and I absolutely loved Lucien's when we went for our initial tour of the venue. The Versailles ballroom was absolutely stunning with a staircase for a princess entrance. We also loved the feeling of the Chantilly room for cocktail hour. However, it was just out of our budget so we emailed Nichole to see if we would be able to cut from the package to lower the price. We were very flexible and willing to cut a large portion of the food from cocktail hour and dessert. Then we were told that on the date we requested (which didn't change in the 5 days since we had been there initially) actually wasn't available at the start time we wanted and we would have to move to 3:30. We are having our ceremony at my family's church 25 minutes away and cannot change the start time of the service from 200. We were also informed that the Chantilly room could no longer be used for cocktail hour and instead cocktail hour would be in half of another ballroom (which don't get me wrong was still beautiful). After all this she was able to cut ~$9 per person off of the price. Overall the second time we went back felt extremely unprofessional as she had forgotten who we were, did not check our date until we had negotiated the menu despite confirming the date via email prior to our meeting, and wanted us to change the schedule for our day to better accommodate their needs.
SO, SOOOO happy we chose this venue!!! Robin and the entire team that work at Lucien's is absolutely amazing. They are so patient, kind, funny and have great communication with their clients. The venue is absolutely stunning! The team the day of the wedding were absolutely a dream and kept me calm, cool, hydrated and fed!!! I can't thank them enough! I'd recommend Lucien's over and over again!!!
Love the extra care they showed me and my family on my special day! James and Desiree were absolutely amazing They both kept our day running smoothly. Food was absolutely delicious. This venue is beautiful to have a wedding. Everyone is still raving about my wedding.
My husband Ryan and I got married at Lucien's Manor on June 2, 2018. From the moment we first looked at this venue in January 2017, we had fallen in love with it. The ballrooms (particularly the Versailles where we had our Hindu ceremony, and the LaGrande where we had our Western ceremony and later, our reception) are stunning. The cocktail hour at our wedding was amazing and many of our guests told us this was the best wedding they had ever been to. I felt like we got married inside of a palace. The bridal suite was clean and spacious and the staff promptly brought up lunch and cocktail hour food including unlimited drinks, in between each of our two ceremonies and reception. Special shoutout to Jake, Desiree, Chris and Mark, who helped us along the way to plan and make our wedding dreams come true. Cannot recommend this place enough. If you are looking for a glamorous, yet affordable venue to hold your wedding, look no further!!!
Our wedding was May 5, 2018 and we had our wedding at Lucien’s Manor. From booking the venue to the day of our wedding, everyone was great to work with! Nichole was the best in helping us plan all the details! No matter what questions I had, she responded in a timely manner and put my mind at ease for our big day. On the day of our wedding, Desiree and Christopher were there with us the entire time!!! They were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! They had literally anything we needed in the drop of a hat! For example, My bustle kept coming undone and Chris was right there with a pin to fix it! The servers and bartenders were also super friendly and very attentive to our guests!! The whole day went so smoothly thanks to the Lucien’s staff! We cannot thank you enough for all you did for us!!

Writing this review brings tears to my eyes. Ever since the first day I walked into Lucien’s and walked into LaGrande, my heart was won over. I knew it was the place I had to get married. Last night was everything I ever could of dreamed about and more. Robin, Peggy and Nicole were all so amazing to work with. I especially became closest with Robin and she was so helpful and patient with me. Any questions I had, she was so prompt and answered everything I ever needed to know. I never felt worried about anything because she always assured me everything would be perfect and it truly was... perfect. I can’t thank you all enough for everything. My guests all had such an amazing time and I am so sad that it’s over because I feel like I just want to relive yesterday all over again. Also to my Maitre D’s, Mark and Chris... They were the most fabulous, caring, hard working men I have ever met. They even bustled my dress for me which was completely amazing. Anything I needed and they were right by my side. They made last night even MORE amazing then it already was and I am so thankful to have met you all! Thank you so much for everything!
We love Lucien’s! We recently had our wedding reception here and they did a fabulous job! The food is great and they give you so much, our guests could not stop talking about it. The staff is also top-notch, I felt so well taken care of the entire night, they ran everything so well and were very attentive to me and my family. The rooms are gorgeous, we had the Venetian room upstairs which was recently renovated and it looked spectacular! Every room is very well maintained.
Special thanks to Robyn, who worked with us on every detail, making planning so easy!
Lucien's did an amazing job for our reception! Everything was perfect and exactly what I wanted. My coordinator, Robin, answered every email quickly and was very helpful. My maitre d, Desiree, was amazing! She was so kind and extremely helpful. I can't imagine the night with out her! The food was all very good from cocktail hour straight through to the cake and sundae bar. Lucien's really did a great job.
My Husband and I were married and had our reception at Lucien's Manor on January 13, 2018. I cannot begin to describe how amazing the night was. Every, and I mean every, little detail was accounted for. We worked mainly with Nichole and Jacob to book and plan the wedding. We live a good 2 hours away from where we were married, so I needed to rely heavily on email and phone communication. Nichole and Jake always answered and always had an answer for every question I had. Nichole actually meet with my parents more then me, and my parents could not stop raving about how accommodating Nichole was. We even found out a few weeks before the wedding that, because were were the only wedding there that night that, Nichole upgraded my ceremony room and no cost to us! It was spectacular. Jacob was so accommodating. Every concern a new bride could have he took care of and made me feel like my wedding was truly important.
The day of the wedding everything went off perfectly. Not because we were so well planned, but because our maître d’ Michelle and head-waiter Chris truly defined what it meant to make a person feel specail. To say I was treated like a Queen and my Husband like a King would be an understatement. Everything from a request for a straw, to a plea for someone to go get flowers I had left in the bridal suit were taken care of. Chris even fanned out and bustled my dress, more then once, during the night for pictures. They went above and beyond making sure my Husband and I had everything we wanted from fresh drinks to a few moments alone.
The food at Lucien's was absolutely amazing. My guests still can't stop talking about it. They said they were fed continuously for a full 5 hours! Many people remarked that the cocktail hour was the best they had ever been to. The dinner was not only delicious, but plated beautifully. The bar was true open bar and drinks were not mainly mixer. The bartenders kept my guest happy with short waits and delicious drinks. My cake was also stunning. They even were able to complete my request to have a little Spiderman sticking out of the side (a little fun on the cake for my Husband). We ended the night with a cheesesteak and french fry bar for our guest on the way out. Most of my guest were from the Philly area and they said the cheesesteaks were amazing!! Best decision ever!
Over all I would say that if quality, service, value, and attention to detail are at the top of your priority for your wedding, than Lucien's Manor is the only venue for you! You will not be disappointed!!
We had our wedding on 12/31/17 in the Le Grande ballroom. From the very beginning we worked with Nichole, she awnsered every email and phone call. I cannot even begin to say amazing our wedding reception was. From the cocktail hour all the way to our sparkler send off it was beyond amazing my Michelle and Chris were our matre’ds. They were so attentive from beginning to end. People can’t stop raving about the food and the service we received. The late night cheesesteaks were a hit with everyone. Thank you to everyone at Lucien’s for making our wedding a success!
Words can not express how happy my husband and I were with Lucien’s. We just celebrated our 15yr. Wedding Anniversary at Lucien’s and everything was absolutely gorgeous! The food and cake were beyond our expectations. The staff go above and beyond their duties. Lucien’s will continue to have my business. I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Thank you again to Nichole and Robin.
Absolutely amazing from start to finish. We celebrated our wedding on December 16th in the La Grande Ballroom. We planned through Nichole who was amazing to us through the entire process. She helped us with every detail, gave us advice on what she has seen work best with weddings before and made sure every idea we wanted happened. The week of we met with Jacob to finalize everything and every request I had they made happen. (Even sparklers during our entrance when I gave them a 4 day heads up on this) We had a band and a large wedding so they even gave us an additional ballroom for our cocktail hour to accommodate us. The night of the reception we were blown away and so were our guests! Everything was gorgeous and the staff was phenomenal. My husband and I had Chris and Michelle as our maitre'd's. I cannot say enough good things about these two! They treated Michael and I like royalty and there wasn't anything we asked for that they couldn't accommodate to in seconds. Not only did they treat us wonderful, but they treated our parents and bridal party the same way. I had a headache - they ran and got me Advil, I was fanning myself because I was hot from dancing - they ran and put the air conditioner on. Michael and I had our favorite drinks in our hands all night because there was never a moment Chris and Michelle weren't paying attention to us. As if I didn't think they were wonderful enough, both head tables raved about their servers. From the food to the decor, from the dessert to the uplighting, from the staff to the drinks - there was not a single thing I could pick out that was anything less than amazing. I wish I could get married again just to have another wedding at Lucien's! We absolutely recommend Lucien's to any couple who is venue searching, you won't be disappointed!
We had our reception in La Grande Ballroom on 11/11, and I still can't stop thinking about how amazing everything was! Lucien's far exceeded our expectations. We worked primarily with Robin leading up to the big day, who was so helpful and accommodating, as were all the staff at Lucien's. Our maitre d', Michelle, and head server, Chris, were beyond phenomenal. They made sure that we had everything we needed at all times. Lucien's met all of our requests and then some. I was amazed at how they accommodated for my XL bridal party of 25 people! La Grande Ballroom was incredible as well. We had just over 200 guests, with plenty of room for everyone to be dancing. Our 9 piece band, Goody Blue Shoes, was able to move out onto the dance floor and interact with the guests without being confined to a small space. It was so fun! I couldn't be more pleased with the way everything turned out!
Lucien’s was AMAZING. There are truly not enough words to describe or convey how fantastic it was to work with everyone from start to finish there. The staff are incredibly helpful, professional at all times, attentive, and just all around wonderful. My guests are still commenting about how great the staff were, and even more, how absolutely delicious the food was. You cannot even begin to understand or appreciate the sheer volume and quality of all the food from the cocktail hour to the cake and Viennese table.
Lucien's Manor is an absolutely beautiful space. The staff was incredible throughout the entire process. We had many questions and concerns. They answered and assisted with a smile every time. The day of our reception, they were excellent!! Everyone from the greeters to bridal attendant were phenomenal. They made us feel that the whole world revolved around us. They made the night go smoothly. They know what they're doing. I highly recommend.
There aren’t enough words to describe how amazing Lucien’s Manor is. From the first meeting all the way down to after the wedding, the customer service is outstanding. Robin, Nichole & Peggy are outstanding! No matter the time of day, if you had a question and I mean ANY question, they answered so quickly. They did everything in their power to make sure I was stress free the entire 2 years leading up to & including our wedding day. I have to shout out our Maitre D’- Michelle & my Bridal Attendant Chris! Before I could even think to ask for anything it was already being handed to me. Chris was always one step ahead of me and within arms reach if I did need something. When my bustle on my gown ripped both Michelle and Chris whisked me away to fix it and pin it back up within seconds. Any request we may have had was attended to instantly and nothing was off limits for these two wonderful people. Lucien’s is very lucky to have staff like them and every venue should hope to have anyone even slightly close to them. I cannot say enough amazing things about everyone at Lucien’s. It was my dream venue from the moment I walked in there as a kid for a family event and it far exceeded my expectations in every way possible. Thank you, thank you, thank you again to everyone at Lucien’s!!!
Wow! Wow! Luciens exceeded my expectations! I would relive October 6 in a heartbeat! Our wedding reception was held in the newly renovated Venetian room and it was absolutely beautiful! Our maitre d, Michelle & bridal attendant, Mark were unbelievable! They were so attentive & made sure everything was perfect for me & the groom and our families. We had drinks brought to us before ours were even empty! All my guests are still raving about food! We couldnt believe after dinner the staff went around and asked if anyone wanted to try a different entree or wanted "seconds" of theirs. Another plus was no wait at the bar! The bartenders were quick, happy and very engaging with our guests.
We were so pleased with Luciens through the whole wedding planning process. Thank you Nicole & Robin! You girls are awesome!! Anytime I called or emailed with a question or concern they helped me. Planning a wedding is stressful, but they always made sure to ease my mind.
I can't wait for one of my friends to get engaged so I can tell them to get married here & I can be a guest so I can enjoy Luciens all over again! Thank you !!!
My wedding was 10/15 and it was perfect! Everything was beautiful, and the food way beyond delicious. The staff was extraordinarily helpful- when my veil fell off at the reception, Desiree picked it up and put it on our table faster than I could register that it fell!
Would absolutely recommend!
We had the greatest wedding at Luciens Manor. My parents for emails for 2 weeks from family and friends saying how awesome the wedding and venue was. Everything was perfect. From the food to the drinks to the staff. Our bridal attendant Chris somehow found my wife's vail, somehow, and tracked us down before we left. Robin- our event coordinator- helped us through every decision. Our wedding wouldn't have been as great without here. She recommended we have an extra hour to our wedding and it didn't feel like the event went too fast. Michelle - our matrodee - was great as well.
The icing on the cake was the late night philly cheesecake station. Some guess decide to "have" 10 cheesesteaks to go.
Thanks robin Jake Nicole Michelle Chris and anyone else from Luciens.
We're coming back for that mash potato bar
Lucien’s was the perfect venue for our wedding! Robin is amazing and she was a pleasure to work with. She promptly answered all of our questions and helped to make our dream wedding come true. Our Maitre D’ Michelle and our bridal attendant Chris did a wonderful job to make sure that our wedding day ran smoothly. Our guests can’t stop talking about the delicious food, the friendly bartenders, beautiful and spacious ballroom, and gorgeous gardens! In addition, our wedding cake was stunning!
Words can’t begin to describe how amazing Lucien’s was throughout our entire wedding planning process! From the moment we walked in we knew it was going to be our venue and Desire and Mark made our wedding day absolutely amazing! Recommending EVERYONE to use Luciens!
Amazing day. The staff, the food, the venue-all top notch. It was almost like as soon as we had a thought or concern, someone magically appeared to help. Can't recommend Luciens highly enough. Every last detail was executed perfectly. They are the best!
I can't thank the staff at Lucien's Enough. My husband and I got married on October 1st and from start to finish I could not have asked for anything more perfect. I had Chris and Michelle help us throughout the night and they were so incredibly sweet and accommodating to us and our family. If I could give a 10 star rating, I would. The food was so delicious, and the transition time between the ceremony and reception were flawless. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for the most amazing experience on our wedding day.
Amazing staff! Couldn't of asked for a better crew for the most important day in my life! They handled everything with such ease which helped me to relax and enjoy my day! Nichole was amazing setting all my visions into place and christy and Jenna were the bomb taking care of my bridal party, shoutout to you ladies because you deserve it!
There's only one word to describe Lucien's - AMAZING. My husband and I searched high and low for the perfect venue, and Lucien's hit all of our criteria and even exceeded our expectations. Our guests are still raving about the food and service, and we had multiple people tell us that this was the best wedding that they've ever been to. All of the food at cocktail hour, the entrees, and the desserts were amazing. People came up to me and said that the filet mignon and teriyaki salmon was the BEST that they've ever had, even better than the filet they've had in fancy restaurants in Philadelphia. I had about 300 guests and every single dish was cooked to perfection! The staff at Lucien's really took the time to satisfy all of our needs, and they went above and beyond to make sure that all of our guests were satisfied. Every single person we worked with at Lucien's was kind, courteous, and genuinely willing to help. They are highly trained professionals and are true experts in the wedding industry. My only advice is to book this venue before it's too late! They book up very quickly, because it's no secret that Lucien's Manor is top notch.
This venue has exceeded our expectations! The customer service was wonderful starting from the initial visit through our wedding day! We were always greeted with respect, kindness and patience! This was so meaningful as we are a young couple who had a cultural wedding with an incredibly large family! Lucien's Manor was incredibly flexible and patient...we are so thankful for the magical wedding they provided us! People are still raving about the food, drinks, and overall good-times there!
The entire staff at Lucien's is amazing! I had the pleasure of working with Robin, Nicole and Jake, and they were all just so nice and helpful! The night of my wedding was simply perfect! Taylor and Michelle were on top of our drinks and food which was so appreciated! La Grande ballroom is absolutely breathtaking. Our guests could not stop talking about how terrific the food was and how beautiful the venue was. Thank you to everyone involved who help make our day so amazing!
