You will not regret choosing the Molly Pitcher Inn! Its timeless charm immediately drew us in, but the wedding team (Lauren, Cristian, and you can't forget, Anne!) is what truly made it an exceptional, flawless experience. The team went to great lengths to ensure it was the best day of our lives; they went above and beyond our wildest expectations. Lauren was extremely responsive - often emailing me back immediately even when she had an OOO reply, and Cristian was extremely detail-oriented and attentive during our big day. Several guests told us it was one of the best meals they'd ever had at a wedding. We had so much fun and I would pick it 10 times over again if I had to. Thank you!

We recently celebrated our wedding at the Molly Pitcher Inn, and it was an absolutely incredible experience from start to finish. We had a lot of out-of-town guests, so we knew we wanted to have our wedding at a place where guests could stay. Our guests loved staying at the MP and enjoyed the pool / charming atmosphere for the weekend. They also continue to rave about the food, views, and service.
The catering sales coordinator, Rachel, was amazing. From our first meeting to the final details, Rachel was attentive, responsive, and genuinely cared about our wedding. She worked seamlessly with me and our wedding planner to ensure everything was perfect!
Our Maître D, Cristian, was equally amazing on the day of our wedding. Cristian was always present, making sure we and our guests were well taken care of. His professionalism and friendly demeanor made us feel at ease, knowing we were in capable hands.
The only thing to note is that we had some time restrictions with bringing in outside furniture rentals / setting up due to another event before us - but it wasn't an issue the day of (and the provided outdoor ceremony chairs could be updated so we rented our own). But these are such minor details compared to how amazing the entire process was!
We highly recommend the Molly Pitcher Inn! Thank you to Cristian, Rachel, and the entire team for making our day unforgettable!

My husband and I had our wedding at the Molly Pitcher Inn on September 1, 2023. I cannot express how tremendous everything and everybody was from check in to check out. Our friends and family had an amazing time and cannot stop raving about the beautiful location, views, service and food. Rachel James helped plan our event and make it seamless from the day I walked in the door to the day we left! Christian, our maître d’, was our left hand man the entire day, and we received so many compliments about his tremendous service. He made Billy and I feel comfortable, made sure we were fed and took care of all of our needs before we even knew we needed them. The service the night of the wedding, during the day at the restaurant and bar, at the pool, the housekeeping and all of the staff was impeccable. I could not write enough good things about this venue, and I could not have picked a better venue for my wedding. I will cherish the memories created at the Molly Pitcher for years to come and cannot wait to create more. There’s a little slice of heaven on earth, and I’d like to call it the Molly Pitcher Inn.

We had our wedding at Molly Pitcher in March and they were wonderful! Jessica worked with us closely for weeks in planning and was extremely communicative and just a delight. Jessica was a pleasure to work with and made everything so easy for us! Our Maitr d Cristian was phenomenal as well! He made sure us, our families, bridal party and guests were always taken care of. He was attentive to detail and did an exceptional job at making the day run smoothly. We had such a great experience and would recommend this venue to everyone. Our guests were raving about the food for weeks and not to mention the beautiful views inside and out of the entire venue. The bridal suites were also gorgeous for pre wedding photos. 10/10 for a wedding! Thank you!!

We had my future daughter in law's bridal shower at the Molly Picher Inn. It was fantastic from the initial inquiry with Lauren Murtagh to the actual Sunday brunch with an amazing maitre d', Paul. They were so accommodating. The staff was lovely to work with and the food was delicious. The party ran smoothly and all of my friends complimented how nice the Molly Pitcher Inn was despite traveling over an hour to get there.
I would not hesitate to do another party here

It was a PERFECT day. A PERFECT venue. Staff was incredible! The Molly Pitcher Inn knows how to throw a wedding- and with their help we had the exact day we wanted.
My husband and I had looked at quite a few places to get married and decided we wanted a venue with onsite accommodations. We got married in July 2022 and I am thrilled to say it was the best weekend of our lives! We had 150 guests, many of whom were traveling. Almost all of our guests stayed at the MPI or Oyster Point (sister hotel right next to the MPI). We hosted a Welcome Party at the Oyster Point the night before our wedding, held our wedding ceremony and reception at The Molly Pitcher Inn, and also hosted a breakfast the following morning at the Molly Pitcher Inn. The entire weekend was seamless. Every event felt unique and was well done. The staff was incredibly hard working, attentive, and friendly. The entire weekend felt very under control and we were able to just enjoy ourselves. Huge shout out to Lauren, our Catering Sales Manager, who was so organized and answered all of our questions throughout the process! Also, huge shout out to Christian, our Maitre D, who made sure every detail of our weekend was perfect! Our guests were blown away by the quality of the food (many said it was the best they've ever had at a wedding) and how accommodating everyone was. The pool was a great touch and all of our guests loved being able to hang out there before the wedding and some even stayed the next day. I cannot say enough good things about this venue. We were sad to check-out but are happy to say we plan to check back in for our anniversary!

The Molly Pitcher was such a wonderful venue for us to have our wedding. Lauren was our wedding coordinator and she was so helpful throughout the process, answered all our questions, and guided us through the planning process. We are out of state but Lauren helped make it easy planning from far away. Christian was our maitre d on the wedding day and he knocked it out of the park. He made our reception run so seamlessly and was very attentive to my husband and I. Our guests had nothing but positive things to say. The food was delicious, venue is beautiful, and situated perfectly in Red Bank. We would definitely recommend!

The staff is unprofessional and incompetent. We booked and confirmed a two night stay (Friday & Saturday night) for our entire bridal party to stay under a wedding room block. We also had to reach out to the hotel to confirm and obtain the guest list because there was NO communication from the hotel staff by email or phone calls. The Best Man and a groomsmen were kicked out of their room on Saturday (they were told they were only booked for Friday night) as the wedding photographer arrived to shoot the “getting ready” portion. Not only did this cause a delay with the photographer, the staff mishandled the entire situation from answering how this error happened, lack of caring and customer service, to offering very little in compensation. Additionally they did not even get the room block rate for their stay. Although they did offer to put the gentlemen in their sister hotel at the room block rate, this would have caused a major problem with the schedule of events for the wedding day including Limo pick and drop off. We reached out to the director of reservations and after several emails and phone calls, she finally gave a credit for the difference for the charge of a normal booking to the room block rate, after she already stated it was a reasonable request to refund the entire stay. They also placed 3 pending room charges (for a 2 night stay) on another guest credit card and could not explain why. The Hotel rooms are outdated and 2 of the 3 treadmills in the Fitness Center were not working. In comparison to the other hotels we had room blocks at, this was by far the worst experience and I would not recommend a stay at the Molly Pitcher for:
*lack of communication
*lack of customer service
*lack of knowledge of how to handle guest questions and concerns
*outdated rooms and broken equipment in fitness center
*overcharging and not explaining why
*delay in following up
*over promising and under delivering

The Molly Pitcher was the PERFECT venue for our reception! Our guests couldn’t say enough about the food, service, and overall atmosphere of the night. Not only is, but our immediate families were so well taken care of and they were very accommodating. Our dream wedding became a reality here!

I really tried to have my wedding at the Molly.
I was promised one price, and the next week, the price went up by $6000. I was willing to make that work, and I asked for a contract. The numbers on the contract were wrong. The number in the email didn’t match the document, and neither matched the website. I called their office 5 times over two weeks, being professional and kind with every call and email. They haven’t returned any communication.

The Molly Pitcher Inn is THE BEST place to have your wedding. I desperately wanted to get married out on the water because it’s so beautiful out there, but unfortunately the weather the day of my wedding was absolutely terrible. I was worried the ballroom wouldn’t be as nice - but it was honestly perfect (see my review of my florist - the arch she did really completed the ceremony look). They had a small table for our unity ceremony and another table for my MOH to put my bouquet. They had a curtain that was pulled aside to reveal me as I walked down the aisle. Even with the worst case scenario (a thunderstorm all MDW long after postponing twice due to covid), they were able to help me have a beautiful wedding ceremony. And hopefully if you book there you have great weather and get to be on the promenade!

I had my wedding ceremony and Reception at the Molly Pitcher Inn, on September 18h right outside on the Promenade under a beautiful tent and it was absolutely beautiful and magical. My original wedding date was May 31st, but due to covid they offered me a second home date right away. The entire process was effortless from beginning to end. The wedding catering managers ( Kelly & then Judy) we’re very knowledgeable and always ready to help and answer all my questions. My Maitre D was Cristian, he saw my vision and made sure my wedding ceremony and reception were beautiful and just absolutely perfect. All my guest felt safe with all the COVID measures in place and everyone raved about the food. My day was just perfect and I’ll definitely look forward to having other future events at the Molly Pitcher.

Had a fabulous experience with MPI. Kelly and Fernando did a great job helping us plan, setting up the ceremony and reception spaces, and remaining flexible throughout the entire process. The food was excellent, the views and set up were really beautiful, and the value of MPI in unbeatable. We are so thankful to MPI for making our day perfect!

Our wedding was last weekend and it was truly the best night of our lives! Every detail and every moment was executed perfectly by our maitre d, Fernando. He and all of the staff were amazing and it seemed like they were reading our minds everytime we needed something they were already on it! Our guests have been telling us how amazing the whole night was, from ambiance to the incredible food. The cocktail hour and entrees were the best we’ve ever had! Also the planning process from start to finish with Jessica and Kelly was so smooth, they talked us through everything and any question was answered within a day. We cant recommend Molly Pitcher enough!

From the beginning, we were so impressed on how professional and organized all of the staff members were at Molly Pitcher. We liked this venue because everything was on site. Since our wedding was in June, I sent out the reservation block information with our save the dates. However, it is important to relay to your guests that rooms book up fast! Some of our guests waited too long, and could not stay at the MPI. The venue is beautiful and has an old world charm to it. You are on the Navesink River, which helps you feel more relaxed right away. Again, the staff members were excellent. We worked with Judy who was very helpful and efficient. We also were helped by Katie who has really awesome ideas to help you plan your wedding day. Our ceremony was outside. It is windy out on the deck, but the view is why we wanted to get married at MPI. We did not do an arch or anything fancy, because I did not want to take away from the view. Instead, we rented palms from Guaranteed Plants in Rumson. Steve there is amazing and so reasonable. On the day of the wedding, I was completely catered to by all of the staff at the MPI. They helped our day run perfectly. Our maitre de Cristian was so attentive on the day of. He was constantly running around making sure our guests and us were happy. We could not have been happier with our choice to get married at the Molly Pitcher Inn. We are excited to come back for our first year anniversary!

I recently had my wedding at the Molly and I am so happy with the results. They made the day completely stress free for me. This involved not only the stellar banquet staff, but also the rest of the hotel staff. The food was exquisite and our maitre'd Christian was incredible. I am still recovering from the amazing party 2 weeks later. Thank you so much.

The Molly Pitcher Inn is such a beautiful venue with amazing views over the Navesink river. The staff is wonderful, the food is delicious, and our guests enjoyed their rooms. Judith was wonderful. She worked closely with our wedding planners to make sure everything was exactly what we wanted and ready for the day of the wedding. Our maitre'd Christian was fabulous at well and on top of everything on our wedding day. We are so happy we chose MP for our reception venue. Their customer service is the best, the venue is beautiful with stunning views for pictures, delicious food, and the convenience of having guest rooms and a lobby bar for your guests after the wedding is perfect. Highly recommend!!!

Having our wedding at the Molly Pitcher Inn was a dream come true. Kelly from banquet was amazing from start to finish. Her cheerful personality is contagious, she's extremely professional and very knowledgeable in her discipline! She answered so many of our questions, providing us an answer with detailed options every time. Christian, our mairte'd, was extremely attentive to our needs and made sure everything ran smoothly. He even got candle wax off my dress with an iron and paper! We knew the food at the MPI would be amazing from prior experiences, which it was, and our guests raved about it! ("I've never had such great banquet food" "I finished every single course"). They didn't rush us out at the end of the night. Many of our guests said it was the best wedding they've ever been to, or the best wedding they've been to in a long time. We had the absolute time of our lives and I wish I could relive every moment! You cannot go wrong booking the MPI for any big event!!! It is sure to be memorable and wow your guests!

I do not even know where to begin on how great the Molly Pitcher staff was in making our wedding perfect! The venue was all we could have asked for , it had both outdoor and indoor space and the views of the river are breathtaking. Judy, Cristian and team were so pleasant to work with; they made sure to answer all of our questions during the planning process and ensured our day ran smoothly and we had all that we needed for the day of the wedding and even the morning after! My husband and I could not be more thrilled to have had our wedding at the Molly Pitcher Inn and cannot recommend them enough!

I grew up in the Red Bank area so the Molly Pitcher was one of my top choices for bridal shower venues. I initially worked with Jennifer Q. while Kelly L. was on maternity leave. Jennifer was incredibly difficult to work with, but Kelly was an absolute dream. She worked through all of the issues I had with Jennifer (e.g. not informing me of certain menu selections), which led to a successful event. I worked with Kelly to select the final menu and table arrangements and make the final payment. On the day of the event, I was able to pay any outstanding charges (e.g. beverages) via credit card. I selected a brunch menu, which the Molly Pitcher is known for. Everyone loved the food (especially the French toast and crab cakes!), the drinks, and the views of the Navesink River. With the help of Kelly and Cristian (the maître D), the event was seamless. Thanks again! TLDR: Great venue with good, reasonably priced food

Once we were engaged, we were so excited to visit Molly Pitcher. We worked initially with Kelly whose warm personality, promptness with email, and stellar organization showed that would be in capable hands for the duration of our planning process. When she left for maternity leave we started working with Allison. The transition was seamless and she was easy to reach with questions or concerns. Allison and her staff worked to make every planning process from meal selections to final payments laughably easy despite the fact that we live out of state. My husband and I even got the time wrong for our final in-person meeting (still feelin’ guilty) but she was understanding and we were able to meet anyway.
Our Maître’ d was Christian who was outstandingly attentive and professional on our wedding day. The ballroom was stunning – a perfect fit for our 130 guests. It was roomy but cozy at the same time. Guests are still raving about the delicious food and the warm atmosphere (we got married in October 2017). We’re actively trying to rope friends into booking their weddings at MPI so that we can enjoy a wedding there again soon. It was that great, I’d relive it for sure. Our only hitch was that our wedding night suite was adjacent to a bridal party that was loudly getting ready at 3:00 am at for their brunch wedding. We were peeved about that since we were totally zonked (and happy for them, of course – but they’d soon understand!). The front desk sorted it out.
We truly appreciated those with whom we worked directly at Molly Pitcher Inn and their team of unbeatable staff who made our day so memorable. My husband and I look forward to visiting Molly Pitcher in the future to celebrate the anniversary of our special day. We highly recommend this fantastic team wholeheartedly and without reservation.

I was married there in October 2017 and I can’t say enough wonderful things about the venue and staff!! Our event coordinator Allison was amazing, we had originally looked at their sister hotel and decided with Molly Pitcher Inn because of its amazing outside promenade and I’m so glad we did. Allison is extremely responsive and was wonderful to work with, any questions I had throughout the process she handled professionally and timely. Our maitre d Cristian - outstanding job, he literally made us feel like we were the most important people in the world and our day went off without a hitch and Cristian is just a kind and fun person to work with. Our guests raved about the service and attentiveness of the wait staff, they were out of this world. I can’t say enough wonderful things about the Molly Pitcher Inn and would recommend to anyone I know. Thank you Molly Pitcher Inn for helping us create the most memorable night of our lives!!

I have wanted to get married at the Molly Pitcher since I was little (and luckily my husband fell in love with it as well) and on 11/4/17 all of my dreams came true! I wanted a elegant and classy wedding and venue and staff made that possible. The venue is stunning and feels like you have stepped back in time. The service during our wedding was amazing and all the guests commented on how fantastic the wait staff was- and the food! I also can't say enough how comfortable our Maitre D, Christian, made me feel the day of the wedding. He was always a step ahead and on top of everything. Thank you MPI and Christian, everything was perfect!

I'm giving 5 stars as we had a great experience the day of our wedding- which is what counts. Kelly Leimbach was our original catering contact but went out on leave about half way through. What I'm about to say does not reflect on Kelly at all, she was absolutely amazing and deserves a raise. However, the transition was not smooth to the new contact. The service level instantly decreased as we got closer which is not ideal for a bride working overtime in another state, taking care of a household etc up until the wedding. I am a proactive customer who is in the customer service industry for years now. To make a long story short I felt like the new contact (director) and catering manager were passing the buck between each other. They were not friendly from the first interaction. I called on a weekly basis with questions and was given half of a response and told I needed to call back. When I did I only received conflicting information. Personally, I felt like these people simply did not care because it was not their sale or normal job. The night of our rehearsal we were told Molly could not fit an entire table in the ballroom. We wound up having to disperse the table amongst others. Something I should not have had to do the night before my wedding. It also seemed the check in area was a bit overwhelmed when we all came in. I will be filing a formal complaint regarding the way certain things were handled.
On a lighter note the food was great, atmosphere was great, rooms were clean and we wound up having a great night.

Molly Pitcher did a great job every step of the process! Early on we worked with Kelly L. and Bill M., who were both a pleasure to work with as well as very knowledgable and helpful with all our questions. Jess was our maitre ‘d on the big day and she and her staff did an amazing job!
Bottom line - the staff, the location, and the food are all top notch. We were showered in compliments and wouldn’t have changed a thing!
Thanks again!

My husband and I got married at the Molly Pitcher Inn on 8/19/17 and it was the best day ever! We saw about 5 venues before we visited the Molly. As soon as we arrived and sat down to talk to Kelly, we knew this was where we wanted to get married. We wanted an outdoor ceremony as well as a venue that had hotel rooms. We wanted a one stop shop and the Molly was the perfect choice. Kelly was amazing through out the process and answered every email so quickly. Linda was also very helpful when it came to booking rooms and our room blocks. Fernando was our Maitre D and he was wonderful. He made sure everything was taken care of from start to finish and even during our brunch the next morning! We went with a buffet for dinner because in our opinion you get so much more food than a sit down dinner and we didn't want a formal sit down dinner. We wanted to keep the party going and let our guests eat as they wanted. Everyone raved about all the stations and our guests especially loved the kobe beef slider/french fry station at the end of the night! What my husband and I also really loved about the Molly was that you essentially get 3 rooms as well as the outside promenade. The ceremony was outside on the promenade then the cocktail hour was inside the Southampton room as well as outside. The reception was in the ballroom and the photobooth was set up in the tea room so the whole night, guests flowed easily between the three rooms. We felt you truly got the most out of your money with the Molly Pitcher Inn compared to other venues!

My wife and I saw 8 different venues, and the only one we were both blown away by from the moment we walked in was The Molly Pitcher Inn. We worked with Kelly who was extremely professional and responsive throughout the entire process, while also being genuinely enthused about helping us plan our wedding. The whole team was wonderful at The Molly Pitcher, from Linda with helping us book our block, to Brian at the front desk assisting us leading up to the wedding. During the night of the wedding, Kelly handed us off to Jessica our maitre d who was absolutely perfect. She was extremely professional and was always around when you needed her. During the day rain threatened and she clearly explained our multiple backup options just in case. Thankfully the rain held out and her and her team sprung in to action to make sure we could still have an outdoor ceremony. Whenever small items came up throughout the night, she was quick to either resolve them personally or have someone on her team take care of it. The service was excellent!
I have to take a second to also rave about the food. I knew we were in for a treat at the taste testing, but we still have people telling us how excellent the food was several weeks later. The Molly Pitcher Inn truly is the total package when it comes to weddings and other events.
One final positive fact which I really enjoyed about the Molly Pitcher Inn compared to other venues is that their prices are inclusive of tax, meaning you know what you will pay up front and don't get stuck pulling out your phone to calculate tax at the meeting, what you see is what you get!
I cannot recommend Kelly, Jessica, the staff and The Molly Pitcher Inn enough, go check it out yourself!

The Molly Pitcher Inn made my husband and I's wedding dream come true! Everything about our wedding couldn't have been any more magical. Our breath was taken away looking at the view of where our ceremony would take place, looking over the beautiful Navesink River. The Molly Pitcher's beauty is exceptional but so is their staff. We could not have had anyone better than Bill Murray and our Maitre D' Christian to rely on before and on our wedding day. Their support and help throughout the planning process always eased our stress. They accommodated all of our decoration desires and making sure we had anything and everything we needed at all times, from our rehearsal all the way until the end of our wedding night! We received SO many compliments on the truly exceptional food, service and venue. Every one of our guests were so impressed with the white glove service. Christian truly did an amazing job making sure my husband and I had the best night of our lives. There is not one thing that went wrong the entire day and there honestly couldn't have because of how efficient and intelligent the staff was. Now that our wedding has come and gone, something that my husband and I LOVE about The Molly Pitcher Inn is that we can come and stay again at our venue, experiencing the amazing food and views over and over again. I would highly recommend to anyone to have their wedding at The Molly Pitcher Inn. They would not be disappointed and love every aspect of planning and enjoying their wedding day.

The MPI is a class act establishment. They helped me to throw an amazing wedding for my husband and guests from start to finish! I can't even count how many compliments we got on the delicious food. Our wedding contacts (coordinator Kelly and Maitre 'D Cristian) were simply undeniable. They are both insanely good at their jobs helping me to plan an event that the memories will last a lifetime. This venue is really unique, I wanted a "one stop shop" where I could be married there on site, host the cocktail hour & reception and have a blast at the after party (beautiful International bar). Then, my guests could simply walk upstairs and fall asleep! I can't say enough about this venue. I am so happy we chose to have our wedding here and can't wait to come back for my one year anniversary. Thank you to everyone who helped us throw a party of a lifetime! You are all amazing and one of a kind.

The Molly Pitcher Inn gave us the wedding of our dreams. They were truly a joy to work with and their attention to detail was excellent. Kelly Leimbach was our point person and was so helpful leading up to the big day. She was always quick to answer any questions we had and was so friendly and professional. Christian was our maître d' and was extremely attentive the day of the wedding, making sure we had everything we wanted. We would do it all over again if we could. Thank you for the best day of our lives. Hillary & Matt, 7/9/16

The Molly Pitcher Inn is the ultimate wedding experience! With an elegant waterfront setting, it immediately makes your guests feel at home. My husband and I got married there on July 15, and we couldn’t have asked for a more memorable wedding. All matters of our event were handled excellently. From the moment we booked our wedding, Kelly was extremely helpful and was there to answer any and all questions we had. Kelly was always very honest, flexible, and helpful about every aspect of our wedding day. The day of our wedding was perfect, and Kelly and Odelia, our Matrie d’, ensured the day went as stress free and smooth as possible. They took care of EVERYTHING and made sure my husband and I were comfortable at all times. Our guests loved how there are rooms on-site, as well as a bar open until 2AM for those who like to keep the party going. Food was also fantastic; guests raved about the entire experience. It doesn't get better than the Molly Pitcher Inn, and we can’t thank them enough for a truly making our day so special!

My husband and I got married at the Molly Pitcher Inn on July 9 and we couldn't be happier with our choice. You can't underestimate how amazing it is that they know EXACTLY what they are doing in all instances. They get it - they do this every weekend, and it makes your life as the bride easier! We worked with Judy Ivan and she couldn't have been more amazing to work with. All my questions (and believe me - I had a lot of them!) were answered quickly whenever asked. I didn't have a wedding planner or day of coordinator and to be honest, didn't really need one with the Molly. We also can not say enough great things about Cristian, the maitre d. He executed flawlessly, and honestly our entire night was flawless. Best day of our lives. Thank you to everyone there!!!

My husband (still weird) and I were married on June 24th at the Molly Pitcher Inn. I can not say enough about this wedding venue. From the minute I began planning with Kelly, she was more than accommodating. Any question I had she answered within the hour going above and beyond to answer my question. Things went seamless throughout the entire process. The day before and day of the wedding, Kelly and Christian made it feel like a dream. If anyone in the bridal party asked for something, Christian was already 10 steps ahead of us, opening fresh bottles of champagne and ensuring everyone was having a good time. The bridal suite was gorgeous. The food was delicious. The view was spectacular. The staff was marvelous. I have received so many compliments on the venue I can not begin to share my thanks. I highly recommend having your wedding at the MPI. It was the easiest and on of the best wedding decision I made. It was an incredible day and I owe it all to them. Thank you again.

We got married on June 18, 2016 and cannot begin to express our gratitude to the entire staff at the Molly Pitcher Inn in Red Bank, NJ for the exceptional service provided on our Wedding Day and beyond! Our Catering Sales Manager, Allison Mercer, ensured every detail up and through the big day was perfect! Our Maitre d', Cristian Soto, was simply magnificent and five stars isn't enough. Thank you!! Highly recommend this venue... Ps the food is incredible!!

I can't thank William Murray, our Catering Manager, enough for his help during the wedding planning process. He answered all of my questions and emails without delay and provided me with honest answers. He even calmed me down when we had a forecast of rain and thunderstorms the day of our wedding . They gave me up until the last possible moment to decide if our ceremony would be indoors or outdoors which allowed me to get ready in the morning without any added stress! He even stopped by as the ceremony was being set up to say hello and make sure everything was running smoothly.
We also were fortunate to have Cristian Soto as the maitre d' for the day of our wedding. He made sure that I always had a drink in my hand (much needed!) and was VERY kind and patient with as everything came together. I had wanted an outdoor ceremony but unfortunately the weather didn't hold out. It was hard for me to rearrange everything in my mind for the indoor ceremony but Cristian and his staff were extremely accommodating and had no issues moving things around until they exceeded my expectations. He never made me feel pressured to make a decision and never said "that can't be done." He made sure that I was happy in one of the most stressful times in my life. We were able to enjoy the night knowing that Cristian had everything under control.
Everything went better than expected - the food, the staff, the drinks - everything! We couldn't have asked for a better night!

We were lucky enough to get married at MP on May 7th 2016. The whole staff was amazing. Judy helped us out from day one and was always around to answer a question. If she wasn't Kelly would back her up. On the day of Christian was the perfect Maitre'd. The whole event from food, to staff, to the rooms.. It wads all amazing. 10 outta 10

We had our wedding here May 2016. Our Maitre D was Christian and he was incredible. The wait staff was so attentive not only to the bride and groom but to all of our wedding guests. all our guests are still raving about the food and the service. It really was 5-star service. our family and friends were so impressed that each individual at each table was serviced exactly at the same time - true white glove service. Further, the hotel itself, was fantastic. Linda Wolfe, the reservations manager, was always so sweet and added as many rooms as we needed for guests. the front desk staff went above and beyond for us in several different ways!

The Molly Pitcher was an absolutely amazing venue. We had our wedding in March, 2016 and the entire reception went perfectly. Judy helped us with all the planning and made everything very simple. The food was amazing and all the guest raved about how much selection there was. Our maitre d', Christian, was extremely helpful and attentive all night. The wait staff during the reception also went above and beyond to accommodate every guest. For example, we had a guest who was pregnant and could not eat the soup we served as one of our courses. The staff brought her a beautiful fruit plate which amazed everyone. The molly pitcher is the ultimate wedding reception spot.

If you are looking for a venue in this area, Molly Pitcher is the place to book! Beautiful venue anytime of year. Very classy and elegant, with a vintage style. We had our wedding here mid-November 2015 and we were blown away by the service, food, and ambiance! We worked with Judy who was wonderful and answered all of my questions throughout the planning process. It was great to work with them and I could not have been happier with the wedding. It was absolutely perfect. The food was beyond amazing! Our guests LOVED the food. We did the Regency Package. We had 142 guests. Our cocktail hour was 1.5 hours long and reception 4 hours long. We used the candelabras the Molly Pitcher includes free of charge for our centerpieces. Our guests stayed overnight - such a wonderful convenience for everyone! We did a brunch the next day which was so easy to plan and delicious.
Overall the Molly Pitcher provided us a perfect wedding that all of our guests enjoyed. Many told us it was by far the best wedding they've ever been to!

We had our wedding reception here and our guests stayed during our wedding weekend. It was everything we were looking for. We loved the service and planning we got from Molly Pitcher – our only regret is that the wedding is over! We searched endlessly to find a classic ballroom that felt authentic, rather than gaudy or cheesy. We live in New York, and searched NJ, NY, MD, and Washington DC and still landed on The Molly. This place has gorgeous views and a really elegant, genuine look. We’ve received so many compliments from our guests on how beautiful the reception room – it photographs great too!
We’ve also gotten endless rave reviews for the food from our guests. We opted for a buffet (simply bc it was our preference) and our guests were over the moon – gushing about how much there was and how flavorful everything tasted. It’s tough to get wedding food right, and we’re sticklers for good food, so to feel like we actually accomplished delicious food is fantastic. The guests were comfortable throughout the weekend and stayed close to enjoy their delicious brunch menu as well!
Kelly, the events manager, is nothing short of AMAZING. She’s incredibly friendly and more importantly, on top of every detail. She’s upfront and honest, which is something you want when you’re entrusting someone to help plan such an important event. The staff makes sure that your ever concern is addressed in a timely manner and make sure that you have a point person for your day of concerns. Ours, Odeila, made sure everything went smoothly and was highly communicative with us, our family, and our wedding party – keeping us all in the loop throughout the day.
Book your wedding at The Molly. You won’t regret it.

We had our wedding and ceremony at the Molly Pitcher, and our wedding guests stayed there for the weekend as well. Allison, our event manager, was exceptional. She worked with us along the way to give us the menu we wanted, the date we wanted, the service we wanted, and the perfect night. The food was exceptional. The service was out of this world. The venue was gorgeous. Our guests had a wonderful time and could not stop raving about the Molly Pitcher! Christian, our Maitre D was amazing. I highly recommend to anyone getting married in NJ to have their event here!

Everyone has a fabulous time the food was outrageous. Judith Ivan was there to help us in every part of the planing. She made it easy and stress free. Cristian Soto was our maitre d' he and his staff did a wonderful job to make our wedding day go off without a hitch. I would recommend the Molly Pitcher Inn as a perfect venue for a wedding

I could not have asked for a better location for our wedding. The Molly Pitcher Inn was an extraordinary place when it came to planning and execution. Kelly helped to plan and coordinate our event. She was so knowledgeable and had great advice for the day. Cristian our maitre d' is one of the best in the industry! From the food to the drinks to the decor, the wedding was perfect from first look to the after party. If you want an absolutely perfect wedding, I highly recommend having it at the Molly Pitcher - ask for Kelly Leimbach!

As the parents of the bride, we cannot say enough good things about the Molly Pitcher Inn. Everything from the venue, the event coordinator, Kelly to the matter d' Cristian was top class. The entire process including all the planning steps to the day itself was effortless. The event itself was simply magical. All of the staff at the Pitcher provided excellent service. After a few weeks we are still hearing about how wonderful the food and service was at the wedding. We highly recommend having your wedding at the Molly Pitcher Inn. Ask for Kelly Leimbach as your event coordinator!

eptember 26, 2015 we had our son's wedding at the beautiful, majestic Molly Pitcher Inn. Working with Bill in organzing and planning the wedding was flawless. Bill and his staff were very accommodating throughout the process, making this planning enjoyable and worry free. The wedding day was perfect. Not only did the weather cooperate, but the ballroom was like a page from Cinderalla. Everything was in it's place and all the T's were crossed and the the I's were dotted. Our matre d', Paul, was very attentive to the bride and groom as well as to my husband and me. All the food from the cocktail hour to the Vienesse Table was delicous. The hotel accommodations were very comfortable and clean. The Molly Pitcher is a class venue. Thank you for the beautiful day and awesome memory.

My wedding at the Molly Pitcher Inn was a fairytale! The venue is beautiful and Paul (my maitre-d) was absolutely amazing! I only met him a few nights before the wedding, and I knew immediately that I was in good hands. I didn't have to worry about a thing the entire night. He remembered everything that I had told him during our meeting and he was on top of it! I even had an assortment of desserts waiting for me and my husband in our suite after the reception. Oh, and the guests are still raving about the food at the Molly Pitcher! The only problems I had with the Molly Pitcher was with the hotel staff - the weekend was very disorganized and many of my guests waited hours past the check in time for their rooms. This was especially difficult for my immediate family, who crammed into one room to get ready for my rehearsal since 3 out of the 4 of their rooms were not ready by 6 pm (check in is advertised at 3 pm). They were also very unhelpful anytime I called during the planning process for my room blocks. I eventually just worked directly through my sales rep. But how can you beat having your room blocks at your actual venue?

Leading up to my wedding day everyone told me not to sweat the small things because I couldn't control everything and inevitably something would go wrong. Well it rained but that was the only hitch. Thanks to the Molly Pitcher staff the day went perfect. The room, food, timeline, service, etc was all top notch. Judy the event coordinator helped me plan a great reception and Paul the maitre d executed everything seamlessly. I would recommend this venue, catering, and accommodations to everyone looking for a classic upscale wedding because hands down they are the best.
