The Grove

Our wedding at The Grove was the absolute best! The staff was absolutely amazing and so professional! Jason and his administrative team were very easy to work with and were very organized. They helped us tremendously with our wedding planning from the start. Our Maitre’d, Attef, along with our captains and our bride/groom attendants, Emma and Luis were so attentive and made the entire night run smoothly. The venue itself is stunning inside and out! The food was absolutely amazing! There were so many different unique food choices that definitely sets The Grove apart from other venues. The Grove definitely will not let any prospective clients down and they will most definitely not let anyone go home hungry. Highly recommended.

An absolutely stunning and perfect venue in every way! Searching for a venue is stressful to say the least - from the moment Raul at The Grove picked up the phone, I felt like I knew this is where I wanted to get married. He was SO inviting and made the whole process so easy. The staff here is truly so accommodating, organized and they take care of EVERYTHING - things you literally won't even think of! A big reason we chose this venue is because of the food - we heard amazing things and we definitely were not let down. Our guests have not stopped raving about everything, but mostly the food and ESPECIALLY the cocktail hour. It's also just a really beautiful venue overall; I loved that there were separate rooms (all equally beautiful) for each event for my December wedding (ceremony/cocktail/reception), and we were also able to surprise our guests with the Viennese Hour at the end. The bridal suite is massive and has really nice vanities for getting ready. 10/10 would recommend this venue if you want to wow your guests with a top notch event. Thank you to the amazing team at The Grove for helping to provide a phenomenal experience and make our wedding day the best day ever!!

IT’S TRUE THAT THIS IS THE BEST VENUE IN NEW JERSEY. From start to finish we were treated with care and courtesy. My husband is in the industry having helped organize and cater thousands of weddings in his 30 year career, and even he was wowed by the level of food and hospitality and organization at this venue. Many of our guests also work in the food and event industry and they were all FLOORED by the quality, quantity, and presentation of the food. There was SO much food offered and even with 140+ guests there was still so much food left over. The Grove even made several special cultural dishes for my Filipino family and when word got out at the wedding that there was actually pancit and lumpia, everyone swarmed the tables lol! They even ordered and served the imported sauces that go authentically with the dishes. THAT was impressive. Their space is massive and luxurious and immediately felt like home on our wedding day. Our family even asked us if we “stayed there last night” and we had to explain that its not a luxury hotel lol. The space is immaculate and has several bridal suites each with their own bathroom and shower. The bridal attendants that day Noelly and the nice tan skinned man with the undercut and man bun were amazing all day. They were both the perfect balance of around and not-around if that makes sense! They managed to always be right there beside us anytime we needed something urgent and they were the perfect liaisons to pass along critical last minute changes and messages to the DJ, photog, family members. Omar our maitre’d ran a well oiled machine and we couldn’t ask for anything more. PS-my personal favorite station was definitely the paella station it was spectacular! You’ve got to have the meat paella it’s both filling and mouthwateringly flavorful!

The Grove is an absolutely stunning venue (indoors and outdoors) with the most exceptional food. We are so happy that we were able to have our wedding reception here! Jason was so beyond helpful, responsive, kind, honest, and professional throughout the entire process! Maggie was also a pleasure to meet and work with - she catered to our every need without even needing to be asked. THANK YOU for making our day so special and magical. Honestly, my only wish is that I could have slowed the day down just a little bit more so that my husband and I could have gotten to enjoy the food more and taken more pictures at the venue. I look forward to next event that we get to enjoy there. This was our first experience at The Grove but I do not believe it will be our last - every single guest of ours was unbelievably impressed with everything this venue offered - they continue to talk about it to this day! My husband and I do not have enough words to express how truly grateful and happy we are. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

If you want an "over the top," exceptional wedding, look no further than The Grove! My husband and I got married on July 23rd and our guests are still talking about their experience. From a bride's perspective, The Grove is perfection! I worked with Raul who is an absolute MASTER at running a party! I am a perfectionist myself and every single item listed on our Board of Execution was upheld. I never had to worry that something wasn't going to be perfect because Raul put me at ease and was in constant communication with me via text and/or email. He truly pours his heart and soul into each couple's day and treats every party like it is his own. There is no "cookie cutter" parties at The Grove! On the day of my wedding, my bridal attendant continually checked on me and made sure I was taken care of. I never had to look for help because she was there by my side. Our ceremony was perfection. Our guests highlighted that they never saw a ceremony run so smoothly and seamlessly. Raul rehearsed the ceremony with our bridal party before the wedding and had me come in with a dramatic entrance. My parents walked in first and waited. The doors opened and there I was . People are still talking about the beauty of this moment. After the ceremony, an abundance of food was brought up to my husband and me with something from every station of the cocktail hour. As tough as it was to eat because of all the nerves, I made sure to try the empanadas and plantains that were a special request on the menu. They were absolutely delicious and our guests said that they NEVER SAW A COCKTAIL HOUR that was so OVER THE TOP! There were 20-25 passing items in addition to 7-8 stations. Definitely upgrade to get the Raw Bar and Sushi Display! In the ballroom, our guests said that their water was never even half empty. The waiters made sure each guest was taken care of and all food allergies were accommodated. Sometimes, wedding dinners are just "okay;" however, at The Grove, the wedding meal is TOP NOTCH. Raul sent us home with food to enjoy as well and even the next day it was DELICIOUS! Then, our Viennese Hour was displayed ranging from donut walls to flambe stations and so many more delicious goodies! Our guests said that as full as they were, they found room to keep eating! Raul recommended us getting "to go" boxes and that was a huge hit! Our guests were pilling in so many goodies to take home and enjoy! Lastly, we had the after party downstairs, which was so much fun and a great way to say goodbye to our guests! We had it set up as a lounge with high and low cocktail tables! More food was passed that incorporated "late night food items" such as buffalo chicken sliders and pizza bagels along with "breakfast foods" like french toast sticks. I assure you that no one went home hungry! I truly hope I get to be a guest at The Grove again and experience the magic of this venue! I recommend The Grove without any reservations and was so lucky to have had my dream wedding there!

I recently had my wedding reception at the Grove and loved my experience! From the moment we booked our wedding at the Grove, everyone was super helpful! During our planning meeting with Jimmy we felt confident and excited that our reception will be exactly what we dreamed of. He was able to incorporate all our cultural and religious requests (baraat, separate prayer room, halal meat, no pork). We even got to customize our own non-alcoholic signature drinks! During the actual wedding day, my bridal attendant Noelia was truly AMAZING! From the moment I walked in, she didn't leave my side! She helped me put on my wedding dress, secure my bridal jewelry and was there to hand me water and fix my lipgloss during wedding pictures! I truly don't know if my day would have been as great without her help and commitment to making me feel comfortable! My husband's groom attendant (I think his name was Antonio?) was equally has amazing. ALSO everyone that attended the reception is still raving about the food and the cocktail hour. If your priority is your guest experience, the Grove is perfect for you!

Married July 15, 2022. The Grove was spectacular and could not have asked for a better venue! The staff was absolutely amazing from the second we arrived until we left. Jason and Raul were attentive to all our needs and consistently checking in on every detail to make sure everything ran smoothly. Noelia was by our side start to finish and cannot imagine the day without her by our side! I still talk about how amazing she was to this day. While all the staff at The Grove were spectacular, Noelia went above and beyond to make our day absolutely perfect! Highly recommend The Grove. Great venue with delicious food and at no point did anyone have to wait for a drink.

could not imagine a more beautiful venue! The staff is amazing and extremely accommodating. The grounds are gorgeous . The food is wonderful and there's plenty of it!

We booked our December 2021 wedding at The Grove during the middle of the COVID pandemic 18 months out. From the moment we virtually met Jason to discuss our vision and what The Grove offered to our incredible wedding day, he was beyond the words of patient, flexible, and accommodating. His communication, attention to detail, and professionalism was unmatched. I consider myself a tough critic and it takes a lot to impress me but I was definitely impressed. All of our guests were blown away by the wide variety of high-quality food, gorgeous rooms, and focus on safety during COVID. Everything from getting ready, pictures, ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and after-party went smoother than I could have ever imagined. After being a guest at weddings at pretty much every venue in the area, The Grove is on a level of its own. I highly recommend Jason and The Grove!

I don't even know where to begin. The Grove is the BEST BEST BEST venue!!! We postponed our wedding 4 times. Our original date was 3/21/20, so we had to move the wedding 8 days before. Jason (who is by far the best there is) was sooo accommodating throughout the process. We ended up moving our date 3 times and finally got married on 11/6/21 and it was the best night of our lives!!! First off, as mentioned above, Jason is the best. My husband and I are foodies, so the food and menu was extremely important to us. Jason helped us pick our menu and he didn't steer us wrong. He was also so patient as we changed our mind about the food at least 10 times. The food was out of this world! Our guests are still raving about it and couldn't believe how much food there was! One of our requests was to have the cocktail hour food brought up to our bridal suite after the ceremony. The Grove really delivered on this, we literally had multiple pieces of every single food offered at cocktail hour. The food was UNREAL. My husband and I also wanted to make sure we tried all 3 entrees and The Grove gave us each entrée to try. The day of- Atef (maître'd) and Emma (bridal attendant) were amazing. I'm a planner and obviously the day of, I had to step back and let Atef and Jason run everything. Everything went sooo smoothly. Emma was amazing and was literally always near me to get me whatever I needed. At one point I went to the bar to get a drink and she told me no she would get it for me!! She was amazing and I couldn't have asked for a better bridal attendant!! My husband’s groom attendant (Luis) was also amazing and made sure the guys had ample Shirley Temples throughout the day. He also made sure they were dressed when they needed to be! Another request my husband and I had was to keep the venue on the colder side as we both run hot, especially when nervous and stressed. The Grove really made sure the temperature was perfect for us and wouldn't change the temperature without asking us. Also, I requested wet towels to be passed around on the dance floor and they were!!! Given our wedding was moved 4 times and postponed 8 days out, it was extremely stressful. The Grove and Jason really made it sooo easy for us and I would HIGHLY recommend booking a wedding here. We honestly can’t stop thinking about the food and hope we get to go to a wedding there one day!!!

My wife and I are forever grateful for how easy it was to work with The Grove and how incredible, accommodating, and professional they were. I can not even begin to put into words how we felt on our wedding day and it was all thanks to the amazing and most wonderful staff at The Grove! Picking your venue is usually the most daunting and stressful part of wedding planning and this part of our wedding planning was the easiest due to the staff at The Grove. We worked with Jason, the manager at The Grove, and compared to all the other venues we have visited Jason stood out immediately! He truly cares about how he can personally make your wedding day beyond what you invisioned it to be! He was so easy to work with and he was not lying when he was bragging about the food because it was amazing! We have not stopped hearing from our guests how The Grove's food was hands down the best food they have eaten at a wedding venue. From cocktail hour, to the top shelf alcohol, to the main entrees and desert, everone left very satisfied and full. The Grove delivered on everything they have to offer! The venue itself is just the most beautiful and captivating venue you'll visit and makes for magical photos that you will cherish for the rest of your life. From the beautiful and very large hall, the stunning stairwell and chandelier in the entrance, to the historic house they have onsite, everything will wow your guests and exceed all your expectations! I will forever recommend The Grove to any couple and I would like to thank Jason, the bride and groom attendee, the maître d', and the entire staff we have dealt with that made our special day nothing less then perfect.

The Grove was AMAZING and we are so glad we chose to have our wedding here!!! The sparkling clean, fresh, brand new feel, along with the beautiful lobby captivated us from the moment we set foot in the Grove. After viewing the stunning and spacious cocktail room and the incredible grand ball room, we instantly knew that this place was for us! While planning a wedding during covid-19 can be challenging and stressful, the Grove made the venue part of our planning seamless and stress free. The Grove was there every step of the way as we planned our wedding. They were available to answer all of our questions and accommodate any of our needs instantaneously! From the dozens of email exchanges and several in-person drop ins, the Grove always came through for us – especially Jason (the Managing Director). They were always available and quick to respond to us, no matter how annoying we were – and I can assure you, we were pretty annoying at times, especially with the stress of Covid. When our wedding day came, we couldn’t have been more pleased with the Grove! Our wedding was amazing and everything went absolutely perfect! The entire staff at the Grove made our night perfect, from the Managing Director who was on site for our wedding making sure everything went to plan, to our amazing bridal attendant, maître d, and the entire wait staff and bartenders. They were incredible! The entire set up, lighting, layout, etc. was amazing and exactly how we envisioned it to be. The food and desserts were INCREDIBLE! Our guests were raving about our wedding, especially how amazing the food and desserts were. We were very happy with the Grove and would choose it 1,000 times over again if we had to. Following the wedding we along with our parents received many texts and phone calls from our guests who were blown away by our wedding and the food and service from the Grove. And we ourselves have said over and over again how we wish that we could re-live the day. We HIGHLY recommend the Grove – you will not be disappointed!

The Grove is seriously the most incredible wedding venue. The food was amazing, the service was out of this world, and the people who work there are so sincere and genuine in making the day feel like a dream come true. Christina from The Grove is hands down one of the most amazing people inside and out. She took so much of her personal time to help me with whatever I needed. Trying to plan a wedding during a pandemic was certainly stressful at times, but Christina always made it positive and helped me out along the way. I have texted and called her throughout all hours of the day and she always responded. I can NOT say enough amazing things about her. From this entire wedding experience, I not only had the wedding I've always dreamt of, but I also gained a friend in Christina. We are beyond grateful and so happy we chose The Grove for our special day!!

I do not even know where to start. We toured many venues, but the Grove was the only one to work with us in every single aspect of our wedding. After having to postpone our wedding twice due to Covid-19, my fiancé and I were so relieved with all of the help and support from Jimmy at the Grove. When our 4.30.21 wedding date finally arrived more than a year after our original plans, we honestly did not really know what to expect. The Grove exceeded every expectation and hope that we had and beyond. Every inch of the property is perfect for photos, including the stunning staircase and historic house on the property. The balcony overlooking the cocktail hour room, as well as our entrance into the reception made us feel like true royalty. I never understood how necessary it would be having Liliya, our bridal attendant, with us the entire step of the way but she was absolutely incredible. We were never without a drink, something to eat and my long veil was always smoothed even if it meant doing so 10x over. She even snuck us through the service entrance after taking photos so our guests wouldn’t see my outfit change and fixed my bustle when one of the buttons came off. And Atof, although remaining hidden to us for most of the evening, kept every single moment of the cocktail hour and reception on schedule. He even reserved special tables for our parents during the cocktail hour and made sure they were well taken care of the entire night. Every single guest told me how beautiful the venue was, how amazing the food was, and that it was an incredible day. The Viennese hour was like nothing I have ever seen. I will never forget how perfect everything was and truly thank the entire Grove team for going above and beyond.

Never in my life did I think I would have a dream wedding. Thanks to Christina and the fantastic team at The Grove, my wedding was better than anything I could’ve dreamed of. From day 1, when I met Christina, I knew she was special. She gave me white glove service throughout the entire planning process. She was available at all hours of the night and was always eager to help. She made sure that every detail of our wedding was taken care of and that we were always happy. The day of the wedding, she and the rest of the incredible team, ensured everything was smooth from arrival until departure. They treated me and my family like royalty. Additionally, all of our guests were in awe of the magnificent venue. I would highly recommend Christina and The Grove to anyone looking to make a beautiful wedding. The Grove is generous and treats you like a King and Queen.

Where to begin regarding The Grove. Words will never be enough to express the experience that my husband and I had with the venue. From our booking in December of 2018, to all the adjustments to planning and postponement of our August 2020 date due to Covid, to our wedding day on March 26, 2021, The Grove has been nothing but exceptional. Raúl, our coordinator, was of great help and support throughout this entire experience. Noelia, my bridal attendant, and Luis, the groom attendant, were of amazing. They kept both of of us calm and assisted us throughout the day, and night, with whatever we needed. The entire staff was exceptional and we could not have asked for more. BOOK THIS VENUE!!! I promise you will not regret it ;-)

I do not even know where to begin with the Grove. They went above and beyond. Any expectation we had was completely blown out of the water. We worked with Jimmy directly, but every single one of the staff members were beyond exceptional. My husband wanted to bring to life a traditional celebration from where we are from, here in the US. I couldn't have imagined anything remotely close to what Jimmy was able to put together. We had a large wedding with a first look and a celebration of about 40 people before the church. They did not skip a beat in any aspect the entire day! The food, service, lighting, and everything was utter perfection! Almost 3 years later, everyone still talks about how amazing the Grove was. We cannot wait to be able to attend or host our next event at the Grove!

As a now Corona Bride, The Grove made my wedding postponement so easy! They worked with me and helped me pick a new date for 2021. I am so grateful to have picked such a beautiful and helpful venue for my wedding!

Wow!!! My husband and I had our wedding at The Grove on 3/14/2020. Christina was absolutely fantastic!! She was on top of everything. Responding to emails and phone calls promptly. Answering all our questions. The day of the wedding everything went so smoothly. Ashley my bridal attendant was AMAZING! Not a minute went by that she wasn’t right next to me. I could not have been happier with The Grove and there entire staff. My wedding day was the best day of my life because of The Grove!!!

I don’t normally do reviews but WOW! I just knew I had to for the Grove. I wish I could give this place 10 stars instead of five! Starting with the PHENOMENAL Christina, who put my mind at such ease and handled all of my last minute curve balls even hours before the ceremony. My wedding day was beyond anything I could of imagined or dreamed! From the minute I stepped into the Grove I was treated like a queen. The attendants for my husband and I were amazing. They made sure our parents were always sacking or drinking something to keep their energy up for the festivities. My bridal attendant Noellia( sorry if I spelt it wrong) was by my side until the minute I got into the car to leave. She constantly helped me fix my dress, retouch my lip gloss and made sure I always had a drink or something to eat. Speaking of food ahhhhhhhmazingggggg!!! My guests cannot stop raving about cocktail hour and how there was such an amazing variety and plethora of food to eat. I don’t know how people can say they don’t eat at their weddings, they clearly haven’t ever gotten married at the Grove. My husband and I were able to eat every single thing we picked out for cocktail hour and by dinner I was stuffed. Then dessert. OMG!!! Every dessert for our Viennese stations you could think of was there. My guests were so overwhelmed and trilled that we had a whole room devoted to just desserts. Best part was being able to have our dinner and a TON of desserts packed up for us to take home. Our wedding day was just incredible. My husband and I can’t thank the Grove enough for giving us amazing service and the wedding of our dreams! I can’t wait for one of our friends or family to get married there so we can come back LOL

My husband and I chose The Grove for our September 2019 wedding. From the second we walked into the grand lobby with marble floors, impressive chandeliers, and high ceilings, we knew this was where we wanted to get married. We took our pictures in the lobby and outside and had our ceremony indoors. Our cocktail hour was spectacular, the Viennese display was over the top, and our champagne glasses were never empty. Our guests are STILL talking about the food!! The general manager personally checked in with us throughout the evening to make sure everything was running smoothly and that we were enjoying ourselves. I wish we could get married at The Grove every year!!!

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! The best decision we ever made! My husband and I got married at The Grove in August and people are still talking about it! Andrew, Jason and Omar were amazing to work with. Their expert advice and opinions during the planning phase, helped us ensure that our day was perfect. We felt like celebrities on our wedding day. The staff thought of our needs before we even knew what we needed. The food, drinks, and service exceeded our expectations as everything was impeccable. Every guest felt acknowledged and taken care of, as the staff was so attentive to every guest/table. We are one of the few couples that actually ate on our wedding day. The staff ensured that our timeline of events was on schedule and that we actually were able to enjoy our wedding with our guests. If you’re thinking about getting married at The Grove, do it! It was truly the best day of our lives and a memory we will never forget!

I cannot say enough about The Grove. This was the first venue of 10 that we had scheduled to see. After meeting with Raul (the absolute best!!), I knew they had set the bar high. After visiting two other venues, I cancelled all our other appointments and booked with the Grove- there was no competition! I cannot express enough, how absolutely perfect our wedding day was. The Grove puts on an amazing show for the guests- from the cocktail hour, to the lighting, to the sparklers, to the amazing food, to the Viennese hour (YOU MUST DO THIS), every single one of our guests were blown away. They have this wedding thing down solid. Everything went so smoothly, they have amazing staff. Ashley, my bridal attendant, was THE BEST. I would not have had such a great day if it wasn't for all of her attention to me. I promise you, if you book The Grove, not only will your guests be blown away by the beauty of the venue and their amazing service, your wedding day will be absolutely perfect in every way you imagine it. They go above and beyond, you will feel like a king and queen on your day!

GET MARRIED HERE!! The Grove is absolutely responsible for me having a perfect wedding day. The amount of service you’ll receive here is UNBELIEVABLE. Personal assistant for the entire day. Personal assistant for each set of parents. They did not miss any details. From cooling cloths for my neck, to Bobby pins for my hair ... they thought of EVERYTHING!!! 100% would recommend. If you’re considering this venue, commit. This is the best venue i could ever imagine.

Thank you so much Christina for making our wedding day at Cedar Grove the most memorable day of our lives. If you're looking for the BEST of the BEST and want to have amazing service and professionalism go to Christina. I can promise you, you won't be disappointed! From the moment we met Christina we loved her and we were confident that she would do everything to make our day AMAZING!!! Great person, professional team, dedicated, hard-working, humble, and BEST in the business! My husband and I still talk about how grateful we were to have picked an amazing venue. Christina made it so personal and special for us. She even helped us pick the church and find our priest. She helped me and my family pull off an amazing wedding in less than 3 months. Very thankful for her! We love them and will recommend them FOREVER!!

SPECTACULAR! I fell in love with The Grove in August 2018, but you and your team truly made our Wedding Day unforgettable. The Grove's outstanding service and attention to detail went so far beyond and exceeded our expectations. From the food to the decor to the service, our guests cannot stop talking about how our wedding was truly the wedding of the decade! The Grove's staff is a group of All-Stars! I literally watched Omar put out fire with his fingers to keep our candles perfect, can you say INCREDIBLE!!! I can not say enough about Ashley; even my bridesmaids were blown away at her service. Ashley literally fed me fruit when she noticed I hadn't eaten. She could anticipate my needs before I even had time to ask- she is WONDER WOMAN! Chef Anthony is a true artist! He made unique Peruvian dishes that were specially added to the menu to highlight my husband's heritage and everyone was impressed! Raul was our contact, but he was more like my ambassador and advocate! He is AMAZING at what he does! He kept me calm the entire reception and I enjoyed every moment of my wedding. Because of him, I NEVER worked my wedding! I cannot thank Raul enough for taking care of us. H is e so professional and talented, and I was blessed to have him by our side. He and his team made me feel like a princess. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. It rained on October 20th, and all of our wedding photos were indoors... AND I WOULDN'T have it any other way! The Grove is a stunning background for our pictures! I could go on for days! ALL BRIDES WOULD BE LUCKY TO GET THE GROVE! You made our dreams come true, and I am forever thankful!

The grove host our wedding on June 15th 2019. We feel we are so lucky we picked the grove to be our wedding venue. Since the gorgeous venue, and also their incredible excellent service. Before the wedding, they helped us planned menu and layout etc, and since we are chinese, we need to a tea ceremony in the early morning, their team really make accommodation for us, helped us planned the room and let us start the day from 7 am in the morning. And our bride and groom attendant was there from the time we get in the venue. They did everything for us. I can not say more thank you to them. My bridal attendant helped me changing my dress, iron my dress, grab food and drink for me etc. They made me really feels a bride that day. For the food, the cocktail hour, reception food was incredible. All my friends and family really had a good time. they said we had best wedding they have ever attended. Special thank Jimmy, our maitre d', my bridal attendant and groom attendant on that day. They definitely made our special day even more special and unforgettable!!! I highly recommend the grove to be your wedding venue, if you want a worry free, luxury and elegant wedding!

It’s now been 8 days since our wedding at The Grove, and people are STILL calling and texting us to say how incredible their experience was. Many places might claim to be top-notch, but The Grove truly follows through on that claim. The bride’s and groom’s attendants were on hand all day (well over 12 hours, when factoring in getting-ready time) and catered flawlessly to our every last need and request - but that is only the start of the white glove service. Every guest at our wedding was blown away by the ambience provided by the outdoor ceremony area as well as the luxurious cocktail hour. Not only were the food options endless and unique, but The Grove utilizes its space so intelligently that every guest was able to take a seat during cocktail hour if they wished. From cocktail hour we moved directly into the main ballroom for the reception, where we made our first grand entrance as husband and wife from the upstairs bridal suite, where we descended directly into the reception as we were introduced. Not to be outdone by the cocktail hour appetizers, whatever entree you choose at the reception is guaranteed to be the best meal you’ll have all year. Our wedding had about 165 guests, but as the bride and groom we were so closely attended-to that we felt like we might as well have been the only two people there. The Grove also only ever does one event on-site at a time, so if you get married here, you will feel like royalty all day. The Grove are the consummate pros for any and all of your wedding needs!

When you walk into The Grove, you are blown away by the beauty of the venue. We then sat down with Jason Shukovsky who made us feel that we were going to be well taken off and that we wouldn’t have to worry about a thing on our wedding day. This was exactly how we felt the day of! We both had an attendant to help us the morning of. My bridal attendant was Maggie and she was absolutely invaluable! I ran out of time to steam the robes the girls were going to wear prior to that day and Maggie offered to help steam them for us that morning. She was also there for everything I needed including reapplying my lipstick! Jason and everyone at The Grove thought of everything and the day went off without a hitch! We have been told by all of our guests that it was the best wedding they have ever been too and the food was amazing! Do not think twice before booking The Grove, you won’t regret it!

After visiting several venues and not feeling interested in any of them, my now-husband and I decided to visit The Grove on a whim. We didn't have high hopes originally because we never attended any event there, but working with Andrew and everyone else at The Grove was an absolute pleasure. Andrew made sure that every detail was covered and everything was done to our liking. He was easy to reach out to and he made sure everything was perfect for our big day! We received nothing but great compliments from all of our guests, from the amazing cocktail hour, to the delicious meals served, to the overall beautiful venue - we could not have asked for anything better. Highly recommend The Grove!

The Grove is absolutely beautiful and Raul is such an incredible person to work with. I’m SO excited to have my wedding there.

We are very grateful to the team of the Grove, especially Andrew. They went out of their way to ensure that every small part of the wedding was exceptionally well taken care of. The venue is stunning, very well equipped and the staff is par excellence. A very special thanks to Andrew, the man is phenomenal. He thoroughly enjoys his work and provides the highest level of service. We very highly recommend him.

My wife and I were married at the Grove on 12/29/18 and all I can say is – WOW. From the first meeting earlier in the year to the minute we left the venue on our wedding night, every single request, need, and detail was attending to with absolute precision. Each and every one of our guests said the wedding was amazing --- with many of them calling it the best wedding they’ve attended in their life. And it all starts with the staff – Andrew was our event manager and had us at hello. He answered every question we threw at him in the months leading up to the wedding, but truly shined on the day itself. He coordinated with each of our vendors, ensured every detail was in place, and even adjusted to our last minute requests on the fly – he was on top of EVERYTHING. We felt his genuine care for each of us which made the day even more special. On the day itself, my wife had Ashley as her bridal attendant – I can honestly say I’ve never seen someone work so hard at their job. She was with my wife every step of the way – fluffed her dress when needed, got drinks delivered on cue, and even radioed for a lint roller when I got fuzz on my tuxedo during pictures outside! Ashley is FANTASTIC. And running point on the day was our maitre d', Liliya. Liliya executed everything flawlessly and made sure my wife and I were in the right place at the right time throughout the night (pictures, introductions, cake cutting, etc.). She too was able to handle our day-of requests without fail. And as for the venue itself --- it is SPECTACULAR! You’re immediately whisked away from New Jersey when you step foot in the Grand Lobby. Each of the ballrooms (for ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception) are gorgeous. And the food….people can’t stop talking about the food. Chef Anthony Garruto outdoes himself every night putting together a cocktail hour that is above and beyond what anyone could expect. Which is then somehow topped when the Viennese Table is revealed…any dessert you can imagine is put in front of your guests. There is a reason The Grove was placed on the Top 10 Luxurious places to get married in the United States – it is top notch all around. An absolutely magical place to get married!

As I turned to leave the office today, a co-worker adjacent to me stopped to chat and to suggest we stop by "The Grove" so we can get the opportunity to eat the delicious food there again. Talks of wedding crashing turned into more serious plans of trying to get another co-worker married off there. This was a joke, of course, but there is always a grain of truth in humor. The bottom line is this: you can't do better than "The Grove". They are meticulous, detail-oriented, and they make sure to exceed all of your expectations. Our wedding is still being spoken about, photos still being exchanged, and there is not a single negative comment in the air. Andrew was incredible to work with. We placed our absolute trust in him and went with all of the vendors that he suggested and we could not be more grateful. As I am sure you've heard other married couples tell you - your day will pass by in a blink and you will struggle to remember it. You need to have your wedding at the Grove. They make sure that you will leave your wedding day not just with a blink of an experience, but with a montage of tangible, positive, moments. We can not thank everyone at the Grove enough. They truly are # 1.

When I got engaged, I made a long list of places I wanted to visit as possible locations for my wedding. Being from NJ, I knew I wanted to get married in NJ. My husband found The Grove online and as soon as I walked in I knew I wanted to get married there (I literally got a bridal moment haha). We walked around and everything took my breath away, they even have a Historic House on site that’s awesome to take pictures inside and outside. We went to some more locations afterwards, but I kept thinking back to The Grove and within a couple of days I came back to sign the contract. Before the wedding, we worked with Jason S. He is literally the best, but you’ll come to find out that everyone that works there is amazing. Jason helped so much with the wedding from walking us through the menu, talking about the different events of the day and seating chart issues. We did a Kosher style wedding and we were even able to order separate Glatt Kosher meals for the people who needed them. I can’t even begin to explain how magical our wedding day was. People are still talking about how it was a fairy tale. There isn’t one place you can’t take a picture, because everything is so luxurious and beautiful. The food is top notch, people are still raving about how amazing the food was and how delicious all the desserts were. No one and I mean NO ONE left the wedding hungry. The service there not only makes the couple feel special, but the guests as well. People told me after the wedding how attentive and friendly the staff was. Raul was the Maitre d' at our wedding and he was so nice and professional. He made sure everything ran smoothly and helped guide us on what we should expect during the night. Ashley was my bridal attendant and she went above and beyond. She made sure I was eating, drinking, helped me get in and out of my gown and dealt with every issue coming from my bridal party. She was a literal angel and I wouldn’t have asked for anyone else. Andrew was the attendant for my husband and he was just as awesome. He made sure my husband was eating, drinking and having a good time with his friends. I truly can only say good things about The Grove. If you want to get married and feel like royalty, this is the place. It was the best day of my life and The Grove helped make sure it was one of a kind

My husband and I got married at the Grove on August 25, 2018. We worked with Andrew for over a year to make sure everything was perfect on our wedding day. Andrew was amazing to work with and he was extremely helpful and gave us his honest opinion. On the day of our weeding I don't think we could have asked for a better day. Ashley my bridal attended was amazing. She was constantly fixing my hair and make up throughout the day. The food in the cocktail hour was outstanding. We were given so much that we couldn't even finish it all. Our main dishes were amazing as well. I was happy that we were able to take them home with us as they were still so good the next day. The Viennese hour was incredible. I couldn't believe all of the desserts that were there. Our wedding day was truly a dream come true.

Had the most amazing wedding at the grove . Everything was absolutely perfect from decor to service to food. Andrew took care of everything I needed and more !! They put on a spectacular wedding that guests will talk about for months following . I can’t brag enough .

Amazing venue both in terms of beauty and service. Could not be happier with our choice.

We highly recommend The Grove. The services exceeded our expectations. The food is amazing, venue is classy, and grounds are beautiful. Looking for a great place for your wedding.....The Grove is a perfect venue.

The Grove is a beautiful wedding venue with terrific service! All of our guests commented on the elegance of the decor and architecture, particularly inside, and it's a terrific place to host an event to make your guests feel important. The Grove was upfront about all fees and costs from the first meeting, and Dan Goldblatt was very professional and put us at ease when faced with making such a big investment in a wedding venue. There was clear communication from the Grove at all times leading up to our wedding, which helped to alleviate a lot of our stress. They also took care of anything we needed when we asked them, including working independently with other vendors to get items we needed for our wedding. Even more, the Grove was familiar with all of our vendors and coordinated with them independently in the days leading up to our wedding. The Grove hosts only one event at a time, so you can be sure that you will have their full attention during your event, and their support staff did a great job of making sure our wedding went smoothly and they attended to any issues that arose during the day. We couldn't have asked for anything more!

I can not say thank you enough to The Grove and Andrew. You guys were amazing! Not only was my wedding perfect but you were always 10 steps ahead and anticipating anything we may need. If something was missing you fixed it. If I needed something, it was there in the next 5 minutes. Even the simplest thing as my dad said he didn't get any mini hot dogs at the cocktail hour. Next thing he knew Andrew brought him over a plate of mini hot dogs. My bridal attendant Ashley was excellent. Anything I needed she was there for me. I got so many compliments on everything!!!!!! My friends and family were extremely impressed by everything. You really went about and beyond for me and I truly appreciate everything! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

After weeks of searching for venues all across NJ, we knew we had found the place we wanted to get married in the moment we stepped into The Grove. As other reviews have pointed out, the venue is stunning - the grand foyer, the ceremony area, the cocktail lounge, the bride and groom suites - everything is incredible. The photos on The Grove’s website doesn’t do it justice as it’s hard to capture the beauty of the entire space. From the moment we knew we wanted to get married here, Daniel, Maggie and George guided us through the entire process from start to finish. It’s really refreshing to have people who know what they are doing ask you for the basic decisions and then take it from there seeing it through to the end. It lifts a huge weight off your shoulder knowing you have knowledgeable professionals in your corner. On the day of the wedding (March 24, 2018), Maggie and George were at our sides making sure we were comfortable and making sure we stayed on top of everything. Without them we would’ve most certainly been overwhelmed. Needless to say, they made a perfect day even more perfect. Now let’s talk about the food, there were so many choices and each one was just perfect. All our guests couldn’t stop talking about how much food there was and how good it all tasted. A week since, we are still hearing from guests who attended telling us this was one of the best weddings they’ve attended. And none of this would’ve been possible without the entire team at The Grove - especially Daniel, Maggie and George. If you are thinking of getting married in the area, you will love having made the decision to get married here at The Grove.

I don't even know where to begin. Our whole adventure begins with Andrew Kronengold. The absolute greatest sales manager you could have ever asked for. Andrew made sure our entire wedding planning journey was seamless. The Grove is an incredible facility with so much to offer, it leaves you speechless. The moment you walk in those doors into the giant gorgeous foyer, you will be hooked I promise!! Each room is amazing in its own way. Anything you envision can be done. Morning of our wedding, I was greeted by my new best friend Ashley. She was easily the greatest bridal attendant I've ever seen. I've BEEN a bridal attendant, I know what it takes and this girl is the BEST. She was my right hand man from the moment I stepped out of the limo in the morning to the moment she put me back in the limo at the end of the night. From fixing my hair, dabbing my tears and reapplying my lipstick. She made sure I was perfect all night, and I really cannot thank her enough. My husband had a groom's attendant, Andrew. Easily Ashley's twin. Andrew was so insanely attentive, it definitely didn't go unnoticed. My husband was wearing velvet shoes for our wedding and Andrew literally carried around duct tape to remove any lint or fuzz that touched those shoes! The staff at The Grove just seriously cannot be touched. They have been trained by the best and they truly care about what they're doing. Now for the party! Cocktail hour was amazing, we wished we had more time to spend in it! The stations looked delicious, the drinks were colorful, bright and strong! We received nothing but compliments from cocktail hour. We had about 200 people attend our wedding, which filled the ballroom comfortably! Plenty of room to move about and enjoy. Everything is planned down to a science. All the food was displayed so beautifully and it was SO good. So many people raved about the red snapper! The night moves so incredibly quickly you don't even realize whats going on half the time but let me tell you, not once was my glass empty. This place really focuses on the little details. We had the Viennese for dessert where an entire different room opened. People were SHOCKED. This may have been my favorite part. The wall behind where the head table was has mirrors on it, but the wall opens up. People thought it was a reflection until the sparklers went off and the room was fully open showcasing amazing dessert stations and another open bar. It really just blows your mind how much you're getting. The Grove is worth every single penny. We got married in January 2018, people are still constantly raving about our wedding. Our wedding wouldn't be anything without The Grove and their awesome team. This venue skyrockets above the rest. To Andrew Kronengold, thank you for making our dreams come true. You helped give us absolutely everything we could have ever wanted and more. We miss The Grove DAILY and really hope to be back as a guest soon. To Ashley and Andrew, thanks for making our day so seamless. Your attention to detail doesn't go unnoticed. You two are insanely good at your jobs. Thank you all for the best wedding we could have ever imagined Love Kristen & Kamil Nieroda
