Rose Bank Winery by Sensational Host

nning and speaks for itself. The only negative we can give is about the management. Communication from the events manager was lacking throughout the planning process. We encountered a few problems. We were told that we had the entire day before the wedding to set up which was great and allowed us to arrange everything perfectly. When we started our rehearsal with our officiant, another wedding party arrived for their rehearsal. The event manager double-booked the time slot and did not inform us until the other party arrived. We paid extra for our officiant to be there for the rehearsal so this was very unprofessional. We had another major incident during the ceremony. About 30 minutes before the start of the ceremony, there was an electrical issue with the outdoor outlets. Our family and wedding planner attempted to make multiple calls to the manager which were unanswered. Thankfully, our other vendors were able to figure out an alternative but the lack of response from Rose Bank was concerning. Overall, we had an amazing wedding and received many compliments on the venue. We do feel the management could be better. If you are going to have a wedding at Rose Bank, look into a day-of coordinator or wedding planner to help coordinate everything with the venue. Overall, we love Rose Bank and with better management, this is a 10/10 venue.

COVID. We were lucky enough to be married in the new Ash Room which easily fit our 35 guestswith plenty of dance space and provided the country chic vibe we were hoping for. The wifi also allowed us to live stream our wedding which was a huge help during COVID. The wine is on the sweeter end but the venue space is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended.

ld be. The food was delicious and everyone had a great time.

f our dreams and ensured that every detail was perfect. They were easy to work with and always available whenever we needed them. The bartenders and wait staff were phenomenal and ensured our guests were taken care of properly all night. The food is absolutely amazing and my guests are still talking about how delicious everything was. The staff even accommodated our request for a different ceremony setup and a caramel apple bar for dessert. My husband and I had our own personal waitress Krista who was awesome and made sure we had food and drink all night long. Krista even stepped in to help my mom bustle my dress! They truly go above and beyond to make your wedding perfect. I highly recommend Sensational Host and will certainly use them again in the future.

do a great job for your wedding. They will make sure you EAT! DRINK! and most importantly, DANCE! The whole day went smoothly. Can't thank them enough!

ly helpful - always available to talk over details before the wedding, very timely with giving us more info or quotes, and super organized and calm on the wedding day which was all much appreciated. Their staff too were super friendly, polite, and attentive. I'm so happy we went all the way to PA to find SenHosts for our wedding in NJ!

verything simple for us! I met with her about two weeks before the wedding to give the final head count and go over the final details. Kelley took everything that we wanted and made it our dream reception AND MORE! The food was amazing! We had a serve that was solely making sure we the bride and groom were taken care of and made sure we ate! The staff was friendly and kind! They even sent us on our way with plates of food!

an amazing attention to detail, an endless amount of patience, and truly listened to our wants and concerns. She was an absolute pleasure to work with, and I hope to have future events to plan with her! We love you Chelsea!! The food itself was AMAZING. When we went for our tasting they had greeted us at the door with a sign congratulating our engagement, champagne for us to toast to, and all of the table setting options we could ever wish to design with! The food was just unbelievable. We had the goat cheese stuffed chicken and have craved it so intensely that we have plans to request that dish from S.H. every year on our anniversary! They were also so excited to help us customize our menu to fit US. I hate BBQ but love pierogis - so she made us a pierogi BAR! And whats more of a crowd pleaser than that? A mashed potato bar... in martini glasses.. MASHTINIS! The food was fun, delicious, and a huge hit! And on to the lovely Bridget... Bridget, we love you. You were the best wedding event coordinator we could have ever asked for. She kept me calm when a thunder storm opened up at the start of the ceremony, handled all details with our venue contact, and kept us on time and focused. She was a beautiful soul that I couldn't have gotten married without. So if you want a caterer that cares, Sensational Host is the company to hire! Thank you all again for all your hard work!!!

finding a location convenient enough for our family & friends. When we find out the Marian House was newly renovated, we called and spoke to Erika to scheduled a tour. Off the bat my fiance was impressed with the amount of parking and we were both happy that it was minutes from the bridges, an major highways. When we saw the new space we were both blown away. The fireplace is going to be a the perfect focal point for our holiday wedding all dressed with lighting & accessories, we can't wait!

d brand new fireplace really tie the place together and bring it to life. The bar is completely remodeled and modern, it looks awesome and I can't wait for my guests to experience it. Erika is great and gets back to me so quickly with all questions I have. Check this place out, you'll love it!

here!

lp us every step of the way. They made the planning seem effortless. The food was outstanding as was the service. They made sure that every detail was meticulously carried out and on time. 5 stars hardly seems enough to give Sensational Host because in my book they are a "10. Thank You Cory & staff for making our daughter's dream wedding come true!

he last minute details including the day of, they were professional, informative, helpful and awesome! The food is amazing - the service is incredible and their connection to who they use if they don't handle something themselves (i.e. cakes) is also top notch. I will certainly use them for any catering event I plan in the future!!

stick it out with me till the end. A couple months in, we get an email that she is no longer with the company. I was very upset that all they did was send an email and no one else contacted me for months. Normally, this should result in a phone call as we were deep in planning the wedding. This was a stressful time where we paid a deposit and wanted someone to help us along the way as this was our first and only wedding and we were spending so much money with them. Finally, after countless emails and phone calls, someone got back to us who was the manager. As time went on we were dealing with 2 ladies (who I think were new or didn't know what they were doing). They set a timeline but wouldn't follow it. I needed the table numbers for my name cards and they told me they would give it to me but never did. And then when asked for it again they told me to create my own table numbers as a template and send it to them. They told us that the final headcount would be 2 weeks before the wedding and that it was final. They asked for the headcount a week before the wedding. Also they said that all final payments were needed 2 weeks before the wedding as well. I ended up calling them myself 3 days before the wedding asking them if they wanted the final check. During the walk through they were late and tried to play it off as that was the scheduled time. How inappropriate! ********Lastly, they told me that no employees were allowed to touch the card box and they did and we were missing $2,000 dollars. We had to call the guests who didn't give anything which is very embarrassing for the guests and for us. And not only did they not do ANYTHING about it but they were also not considerate and just that they knew their employees didn't do it. So sorry. Then they asked me if I wanted to interview every employee that was at the wedding. How might this help me? This is the not the way I wanted to be treated as a customer from the very beginning when this is one of the largest purchases made for my one day wedding. Very frustrating company to work with. Hire and train better employees. This is also a stressful time for the bride and groom. Just be careful with the details because they were not detail oriented and they went back on their word.

our wedding day would look and how the day would flow. Cory provided us with a timeline of when we had to get everything done, which was so helpful because I had no idea where to start! Sensational Host provides the DJ and the Bakery which made things so much easier for me! I cannot even say enough good things about the food!!! Our wedding flowed perfectly and I never felt stressed during the planning process and that was all thanks to Cory and Chelsea at Sensational Hosts!

e. Not only did Cory & Chelsea make the process fun and smooth, but they truly made this unique combination come to life with their creativity, professionalism and wow-- the food was amazing. We were able to serve 150 people lobster & filet, outside, under the stars with our own personal beer garden and elegant barn table setting. The staff was warm, easy, professional but mostly, -- SenHost made the process smooth and wonderful. I would not just recommend them, I would say you would be crazy to go anywhere else. They truly get it. Thank you SenHost.

ood was unbelievable, which it was. And you can't beat their prices! Thank you for everything!

er we had our tasting. The selection hors d'oeuvres is really expansive and there is something for everyone. Plus they can craft a more seasonal menu if that's what you want and really work with you to make things just to your preference. The entrees on the day-of were actually mind-blowing. The serving sizes are more than generous and everything was so wonderfully seasoned and creative enough that it wasn't just "wedding food" but still wasn't enough to scare pickier eaters. The most memorable dish for me was the strip steak. That thing was massive, and they were perfectly cooked. I managed to talk to a few guests who all agreed. The crab cakes were also really stunning. Another important thing to note about Sensational Host is the service. This really truly is one of the most professional services in the Philadelphia area. Working with Cory and Chelsea over the last year and a half was so effortless, so easy going. We spent a lot of time thinking "are we missing something?" because the process was so easy! They were quick to respond to anything, and on the day-of we had absolutely nothing to worry about at the venue. We literally just showed up and everything was done and perfect. The catering staff itself was also really wonderful. The servers, bartenders and our were all a ton of fun to be around. They were super friendly, fun and great company to be around, and a lot of them remembered us from the times we had been around Sen. Host for meetings and what-not, so it felt like a really personal experience. Our guests have since told me they enjoyed dancing with a few of the servers too so I know they appreciated the company as well. Sensational Host was perfect for us because it is such a professional, well-composed team at a price that didn't blow our budget. They made our day so worry free and fun and they made planning the wedding fun too. We were fully prepared for this process to be stressful and difficult, but we quickly learned that when you've got the right team helping you, it's one of the best things you'll ever do!

put up with our many mind changes! Also the food, well that was just delicious..not one food was undesirable!

g stress disappear, no matter how many late night emails we exchanged. The day of was no different: we were able to be calm and fully present knowing that our day was in their hands. Every person on staff was professional and extremely attentive; not only to the wedding party but the guests as well. Our family and guests cannot stop raving about the fantastic food and service. You can do no wrong with Sensational Host. They are clearly the best at what they do and because of them our day was PERFECT.

on how amazing the food was at our wedding. Morgan was beyond a pleasure to work with and extremely helpful in guiding us through the planning of our day. I can't express enough how appreciative we are at how amazing everything turned out on our day. I have already recommended them to a few friends planning their upcoming weddings in the new year.

m when we saw the unique menu they offered. What we particularly liked was that higher quality items weren't an additional cost, as they had been at other caterers. Plus, they included the cake and DJ in their package that made their services a great value. Our guests were thrilled with the food, as were we. Morgan worked hard the day of to get the venue ready, and was very organized in planning the event in the months leading up to it. Our maître d' for the evening, Britt, was an absolute boss. Britt essentially waited on us hand and foot and made the night go so smoothly. Overall, we were super pleased with Sensational Host's services.

were found with creative unique ideas and we had the BEST tasting food anyone has ever had at a wedding. We could not have made it such a success without Sensational Host and were honored to get to carry on the tradition of using this company from my parents wedding nearly 25+ years ago till today.

ran perfectly! It was absolutely a fairytale come true! Even almost two months later I get butterflies thinking about how wonderful our day was and it would not have been possible without Morgan and Tyler and the entire staff at sensational host! The food was amazing!!!!! Our guests even weeks after were saying how delicious everything was and also how perfect of a day it was! So thank you for making our wedding day dreams come true!!

on and everyone loved it!

yler for making sure that the day went smoothly, down to every last detail! Tyler spent time picking up every last piece of confetti, and Morgan sat with my mom for 30 minutes before the ceremony to make sure everything was perfect. That's just to name a few things! Chris, my maitre'd was the most genuine guy I've ever met and would do anything to make my husband and I happy-- (not many people would follow us around during pictures to make sure we had food and drinks) YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Thank you for being the part of the best day of my life. I would absolutely recommend Sensational Host to any newly engaged couple. We love you!!

lked me through every step and kept me updated with any changes, payments, or important dates along the way. Contacting them was so easy, if I asked a question they got back to me that day or early the next.. It was just so easy dealing with the them haha! I had 260 people at my wedding and everything went off perfectly. The day of my wedding I didn't have to do anything, they made sure everything was the way I asked it to be from from timing to decorations to service. And everyone raved about the food!!! It was soooo good!! It was perfect. Thanks Sensational Host!!!

s a bride with a lot of questions and attention to detail!). I also didn't have a wedding planner, which was ok because Sensational Host not only catered our event but it was like having a wedding planner also! They took just as much care to each detail that I did and it showed. They transformed our venue, provided an excellent and attentive staff for our event, and the food was INCREDIBLE. We received genuine compliments from our guests on how much they enjoyed the food. I am so happy we chose Sensational Host to be part of our wedding day - it was perfect!

pier with the food, service, and incredible team that guided us through the whole process. Sensational Hosts wedding menu for the Camden County Boat House was DELICIOUS, modern, fun, flavorful, and completely personalized. Every guest said the food was amazing and it didn't taste like regular "wedding food". Not one person left hungry. We were so fortunate to have Kara and Cory by our sides every step of the way - super responsive, wonderful ideas, great energy and paid attention to every detail. They both went above and beyond to make sure that our wedding was exactly what we visioned. I truly could not have planned our wedding with out them. We felt we were in good hands every step of the way, and knew that on wedding day, our guests would be well taken care of, too. We could not speak higher about Sensational Host and their team, and would recommend them to anyone getting married or hosting an event! Thank you Cory and Kara for giving my Husband and I the wedding of our dreams!

. We were very happy with the DJ and cake which were included in the package. The food and service were both good. When looking at the final invoice cost, and the quality of the food/service we received, I'm definitely glad we decided to go with Sensational Host.

r caterers we interviewed they worked with us to make our wedding day our own, and didn't just try to give us the same wedding they gave everybody else. Whenever we came up with an idea, they provided us valuable input on how it could work and offered ideas for tweaking it based on their experienced. We were greatly impressed with both everything they did to make the wedding day our own, and the food! We couldn't have been happier with our wedding day and that is, in large part, due to Sensational Host!

perfect and Sensational Host is a big reason why it was the most perfect day. Through my entire year of planning Cory and Kara were excellent. Any questions or concerns I had they were both quick answer. Anything that I needed to rent, or wanted to find Kara was on top of it and makes wedding planning easy! I was a little nervous the day of that a lot of stress would fall on me because our wedding was not at your traditional venue. I was WRONG. They did everything for me. Decorated the tent and ceremony exactly the way I wanted it, and they directed the entire ceremony so I did not have to worry about a single thing. Not only are Kara and Cory the best, so is the entire staff. Before and after the ceremony they made sure us and our bridal party always had a drink in hand and I was followed around with a tray of hors d'oeuvres because they wanted to make sure I ate! ( as if I already didn't feel like royalty that day!) At my reception one of my guest was sitting down the whole time due to bad knees. The wait staff quickly picked up on that and served him his drinks all night, and it was really appreciated. Excellent Service. Our guests are still talking about how great the service was!! Sensational Host doesn't just cater and serve your guests food (great food!), they go above and beyond anything I could ever imagine. Thank you Kara, Cory and the Sensational Host team for making our wedding the BEST DAY EVER!!!!!!!

venues in the South Jersey/Philly area. Cory was great at helping us to customize our wedding package to include all the details we wanted, while staying within our budget. Kara is amazing with details and timelines - she kept us on track, without adding stress. She had great ideas to compliment some of the visions I had for our day and helped add things to our wedding that I never knew I wanted! :) Cory and Kara were always prompt to answer emails and phone calls - which is HUGE when your coordinating all the details involved in a wedding (which was even more than I expected). They helped me with any wedding detail.. even if it had nothing to do with the venue or catering! The wedding night... it was awesome to see every detail come to life. Both the presentation and taste of the food was AMAZING. We received compliments from our guests all night. David was our Maitre'D and he was the best! Not only did he make sure we always had a drink in our hands and a taste of all the different hors d'oeuvres, he even helped with my bustle when my mom was too overwhelmed with happiness to remember what the seamstress taught her! If I could do it all over again... there is not one thing I would change! Thank you to the entire Sensational Host team for making our dream wedding become a reality! xo, Amanda & Bill

till talking about it), and the service incredible. Everyone was so nice and attentive and not just to myself and my husband, but to every one of our guests. I am not a planner by any means, and the staff helped me every step of the way and were very patient and kind. We are actually trying to think of another event, obviously smaller scale, that we can use their services again! Great to know they also do corporate events, catering, and other smaller events! Best day of our lives!

rvice!

asting process, and kept me informed with everything. After our tasting we canceled all other appointments with the other catering companies because we knew immediately that Sensational Host was the company we would use. Once signed with Sensational, everything fell into place. Not only do you get above and beyond add-ins on your package, but I also got an amazing wedding planner, Kara. She made the rest of planning my wedding easy and stress-less! No matter what I changed with our wedding she quickly changed things for me in an instant. The day of my wedding I thought I would of been one of the frantic brides, but Kara and Keegan made the day go perfectly! The food was amazing, the staff was amazing, and at the end of the night Sensational Host made my wedding AMAZING!

were talked into one with 2 bartenders, yet there were still long lines. Bartenders ran out of basics like limes and did not display the liquor so people did not know what we had. One of the pasta station cooks admitted she had never done it before and several guests got cold pasta. We had also requested champagne and wine to be passed around to alleviate some of the bar lines and that was never done. Finally, we have some picky wine people in the family so we made sure to have dessert wine but it was never put out. The room looked beautiful and the food tasted good, but just execution-wise was not what you expect from spending so much money.

o see if they met our requirements for what we were looking for in a caterer. We met with Cory at the Camden County Boathouse and we were instantly impressed by him. He went through anything and everything we needed to know about S.H. and what they had to offer. We walked out of the Boathouse knowing that we were going to work with them and we couldn't wait to get started. We met a few more times to just go over the details from food, set up, decorations, etc. Eventually we met Kara who, for me as the bride, was more than I could have asked for when it came to a wedding planner/coordinator. When we didn't know what linens to chose, she worked with us to really paint the picture for us. My husband and i are extremely visual people and this whole process was very difficult, not being able to see what we were planning along the way. Kara helped us to understand and "see" what the day was really going to look like. As time went on and I sent about a few hundred emails to Kara and Cory with those "small" questions, they responded every time quickly and clearly. Never making us feel like we were burdening them or asking too many stupid questions. We felt like we were emailing friends of ours to ask for help with something. No question was too small or insignificant. They were always happy and willing to answer any question or concern we had. They always made us feel comfortable and at ease with the entire planning process. When he day finally came, we had nothing to worry about. Cory, Kara, and the entire Sensational Host staff was truly SENSATIONAL. They transformed the Boathouse into a wedding that really tailored to our individual personalities and tastes. From the family picture table, to the guest tables, and the head table, every detail was beyond beautiful, and if it wasn't for them, it wouldn't have looked nearly as great as it did. The bartenders were very friendly, quick getting our guests their drinks, and never let my husband or I go thirsty. Our Maitre'D was so attentive to our needs. We were starving while we were taking pictures with the photographer, so she brought us hors d'oeuvres, then noticed which ones we ate the most of, and brought us more of those. She brought us drinks before our drinks were even finished. She truly made us feel like royalty. The service over all was phenomenal. Our guests were so pleased and so impressed by every detail. Everyone told us how great the waiters/waitresses were and it truly showed. Unfortunately, it was our fault for not contacting the Boathouse ahead of time to see if we could leave our decorations there for the night, but the SH staff was so helpful in packing everything up and helping us get it out onto the bus so we could transport it to the hotel. Overall, if my husband and I were to get married again, we would choose Sensational Host every time, from the food to the service and back again, everything was beyond our expectations and we highly recommend them. Cory, Kara, and the entire Sensational Host staff, we thank you for making our wedding day so special, and one we'll never forget. Wishing you all the best, Brian & Emily Ehret

he one to contact them first. He was working with Tyler and trying to find a time to tour the Camden County Boathouse. Unfortunately, my hours at work are awful so it was hard to schedule a time... but it seemed like they weren't really trying to work with us either. I get that they're busy, believe me- but since then we haven't received any form of contact. Looks like we will be going with another caterer, unfortunately.

cking. I felt confident knowing that whatever I threw her way, she would handle. The food was delicious and at the tasting, they took detailed notes of what we did or did not like and adjusted accordingly. Everyone at the reception raved about the food! The actual event ran smoothly; Kara and her team made sure we were well attended to. It felt great having someone to go to with any questions or concerns at the venue. We definitely felt cared for and pampered! Add delicious food to that and I don't know why you'd go anywhere else!!
