I would recommend Fernbrook to everyone 100 times! We had the best experience working with Teri and team to make our wedding day dreams a reality. Teri was incredibly patient with my anxiety about weather, # of guests, and all the little details and was really helpful in steering us into the right direction and alleviating any concerns. Even when we told her we wanted alpacas at the wedding, a first for Fernbrook, she was ready to help figure out all the logistics to accommodate my wild request.
The food was absolutely amazing, and several guests told us it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding. Fernbrook's food isn't your typical "wedding food," it's all grown and sourced from the farm. Teri was extremely helpful with making suggestions for what to serve based on what was in season. The chianti braised short ribs were a crowd favorite. And the cake? Say no more. It was perfect.
Fernbrook is such a special place that everyone really should visit if they are considering it for their wedding. If you want a combination of a farm (sans barn) and estate wedding, this is your place.
I wish I could do this whole experience again! It really was the perfect day, and Teri + her team are a huge reason for that.
This venue is BEAUTIFUL in the fall. Due to number of guests we couldn't have the ceremony there but the venue was very accomodating with allowing us to still take photos at the venue before leaving for the ceremony. Our date was 11/4 so we were able to have the cocktail hour outside and reception under the tent. Food during the cocktail hour and reception was AMAZING, everyone was raving about the food. The coordinator team at Fernbrook did a great job the day of, making sure everything ran smoothly, especially with the timeline and setting up. I would highly recommend them for a wedding or other events. If considering a fall wedding here: the leaves are mostly orange/still on the trees around this time, any earlier they would be green, later they would be off the trees.
We had our wedding at the Inn at Fernbrook Farms last month and everything went perfectly. Our guests told us continuously during the day and after the day how beautiful the venue was, and how everything ran so smoothly. The food was amazing and fresh. Teri and her team were absolutely amazing and helped make our day perfect. They set up all of our décor and coordinated all of our vendors so we didn’t need to worry about a thing. I wouldn’t change a thing about the day. Great people to work with and helped make our wedding everything we wanted it to be!
The best day ever !! The amount of compliments we got from guests regarding the venue, service, and food was amazing! Everything went seamlessly and was beautiful. Most magical wedding I’ll never forget it
As a neurotic perfectionist, I was very thankful for the team at Fernbrook. Teri and Rob were even more detailed oriented than I was - they made sure we focused on all the right things at the right times, asked the questions we hadn't thought about, and helpfully provided their expert advise when we were stuck. (They also put us at ease by making sure we weren't focusing on things we didn't need to). The day of was seamless - from being cognizant of our guests' needs and dietary restrictions, to remembering a special birthday surprise. Our guests raved about the food (to this day we still get comments about how delicious the cake was) and loved exploring the beautiful grounds. Having our celebration at Fernbrook was one of the best decisions we made - thank you to the entire Fernbrook team!
As soon as I went to visit this venue (my 1st officual venue visit) I knew it was the beautifull scenic backdrop that I wanted for my dream Fall wedding. At the initial visit I toured the grounds with Teri where she showed me all of the ceremony options, cocktail locations and thw breathtaking hearth located near the reception tent. Teri walked and talked me thriugh it all, but with no pressure. She wasn't trying to make a sale - that wasn't why she was there. She purely wants her brides to have tge romantic wedding they've always wanted, even if it isn't at her venue.
So fast forward - I picked this wonderful place as my venue and was in constant communication with Teri via email. Her response time and content were always perfect. She gave all of the information needed to gently guide you (within reason! Don't expect her to be ablw ro ve your wedsing planner, that's 100% your job aa thw bride unless you choose to hire one) through the process of planning a wedding. Fast forward to the day before the wedding. I did final run throughs with Teri and her team (Rob and Bonnie) in person and droppes off the various DIY decor for the ceremony/reception. This team is so organized and so well-oiled you don't have to worry about a thing veing missed or looked over. I would trust them with anything. By the time the wedding day came they felt more like close friends than my wedding team. On the wedding day I worried about NOTHING. If you've been a bride before or have been close to wedding planning in the past you know how invaluable that is. I got to enjoy every moment of my day and they kept everything on track without over-stepping. The food was absolutely amazing. The appetizers were so unique and thoughtfully prepared. The dinner food was fresh, hot (important! By the time food gets to guests at some locations it's cold 🥶), and absolutwly delicious. The cake was moist (get over it moist-haters) and flavorful. This was a long review, but they deserve so much more than a positive review. If you're thinking of having your wedding at this particular venue, please don't think twice. You would be miaaing out on thw most effortlessly magical day of your life.

As a wedding photographer myself, I have photographed weddings at countless venues, but none hold a candle to the Inn at Fernbrook Farms! To start, the food at Fernbrook is UNREAL! Again, I have eaten a ton of wedding food, but Fernbrook's is special and delicious. Selecting our menu from their farm to table options was incredibly exciting, and everything tasted even more delicious that we imagined! From the cocktail hour bites like corn fritters with pepper jelly, and pulled pork mini blue corn waffles and more....to the family style dinner customized to feature some of our NJ grown favorites like heirloom summer tomatoes...everything was unreal. Our guests raved about the food, and continue to talk about it til this day! In addition to the amazing and unique wedding food menu options, the grounds are simply stunning! You truly get to make your wedding your own by choosing from a variety of ceremony location options. The reception tent is perfect for those like me who love an outdoor wedding through and through! We were also able to have our dog come for the wedding for the whole day which was important to us! The staff was all incredibly friendly, helpful, and kind, even through having to postpone our wedding from the original date because of covid. They were understanding and helpful every step of the way! And one of my favorite parts, renting the inn to sleep over with our bridal party was a highlight! It was so much fun to wind down the night with a bonfire and slumber party with our crew. Fernbrook is a unique venue that let's your create an unforgettable experience for you and your guests on your wedding day! 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!
We changed our wedding plans from a big, traditional wedding at an alternate location, to a small, 25 person wedding at Fernbrook a month before our wedding date due to COVID. Terri, the event manager was absolutely incredible and beyond accommodating. Our day came, and it truly seemed like we were always supposed to get married at Fernbrook. Our family and friends still say to this day that it was the best wedding they've ever been to. My husband and I truly felt like we had our dream day, all because of the incredible staff at Fernbrook Farms - and made my micro-wedding 10x the wedding my full size event could ever have been.
When we started our wedding planning process, we had a good idea of the kind of venue we were looking for and Fernbrook checked all the boxes for us. Farm to table..check, beautiful grounds with LOADS of character..check, amazing food, endless possibilities for planning an event (Literally you can tailor your event to include anything you want)..and not to mention insanely reasonable rates....check, check, and check! The planning process is made super easy because Teri and Kristin are very easy to work with, open to any ideas you have, and willing to give great advice and suggestions. Even on a rainy day, our night was absolutely spectacular and all of our guests agreed! We didn't want the night to end, and luckily it didn't have to since we stayed over with our closest friends and family, leaving the party to continue until breakfast the next morning. Our wedding was perfect perfect perfect, I cannot recommend Fernbrook enough!
Our experience and wedding at The Inn at Fernbrook Farms was truly magical. I am a wedding planner myself so I was quite intense on making sure all of the details and everything went exactly as planned. Teri and Kristen could not be more accommodating and wonderful through the whole process and made sure the day went off without a hitch!
The food was absolutely delicious as well, and offered our guests a fun and unique farm to table cuisine, unlike many “cookie cutter” wedding menus. We were also able to add in foods that we really liked or were reflective of us as a couple. Our guests' feedback was extremely positive as well!
The tent where we had our reception was just beautiful, and gave the feeling of having an upscale backyard wedding with all of the elegance.
I really can’t say enough beautiful things about the property and service, it holds a very special place in our hearts!
My wedding was absolutely beautiful. Everything was perfect and everyone was so helpful.
Inn at Fernbrook Farms was the perfect spot for our spring garden wedding. The seasonal, farm-to-table food was delicious and inspired, the grounds were lush and romantic, and the inn was cozy and charming. The staff worked hard to help us execute the the best wedding we could have hoped for.
Where do I even begin?!?!?!!!! When we first got engaged we searched HIGH & LOW to find a unique wedding venue that fit our style. I happened to come across Fernbrook Farms while researching rustic venues in the Philadelphia area, and I can't tell you how happy I am that it brought me here! From the very first visit of the grounds, we knew this was the spot. The setting is spectacular and completely different from ANY venue you will find in the PA/NJ/NY area. Everywhere you turn there is more beauty across the venue! It was super important for us to have a space that we had to ourselves, and you certainly get that and more with Fernbrook. We decided to hold our entire wedding weekend here, and it was the best choice we ever made! Having the adorable Inn to get ready in the morning, and crash after the wedding festivities is so nice. It takes a lot of stress off the bride & families shoulders! Tracy and Ashley were an absolute DREAM to work with from the very start & we feel so blessed they were able to help plan our special day! I really cannot thank you enough- from every email and random request, you made us feel like we were the only event you had all year! Our guests are STILL talking about how incredible the Farm was! The amount of texts & emails we have gotten asking all about Fernbrook is awesome! Not only does Fernbrook have the most beautiful grounds you can imagine, they also have some of the best food we have ever tasted. Christine- you knocked everything out of the park. From cocktail hour, to dinner, to a late night French Fry bar (YES!) - everyone was raving about the food!!!! I could honestly go on forever, but we are beyond grateful to Fernbrook & will never stop recommending this place. If you have the chance- visit this stunning venue and BOOK IT!!!
I don't know where to begin when talking about The Inn at Fernbrook Farms.
Tracy, Shannon, and Christine are every bride's Dream Team. During our first visit to it's gorgeous grounds, my husband and I decided to use Fernbrook for EVERYTHING for our wedding - our rehearsal dinner, ceremony site, reception venue, and even our goodbye brunch the next day. Like many brides, my dream wedding was going to be outside. Well - to my initial horror, it was forecasted to rain for a very large portion of out wedding weekend, and I have to say - because of the Fernbrook's AMAZING staff, it turned out even better, even more beautiful than I could have imagined, like - really. Also like many brides, I poured my soul into planning my wedding. On the day before our "Big Day" I handed over full driving privileges to Tracy & Shannon - two women who earn every penny they make with their creativity, professionalism & hard work all of which they apply steadfastly to making each wedding special. They worked tirelessly to make our "rain plan" just as good as our Plan A, and it really was.
Not only is it a stunning venue, their food is UNREAL. Truly, everything Christine (their Head Chef) puts her hands on tastes absolutely delicious. Her food is gourmet and so tasty. A lot of it is grown right at Fernbrook Farms, and is just so unbelievably yummy. Not one thing we've eaten there has been anything short of amazing. Our guests could not stop raving to us about this venue, from its rustic elegance to its delicious food to their adorable cow T-Bone (!), and I will never forget how magical and beautiful our wedding weekend was. Thank you Tracy, Shannon, Christine, and everyone at Fernbrook for making our dream wedding a very treasured memory.
My daughter was married at Fernbrook Farms on August 20th. It was a lovely, wonderful day. Everything was perfect, from the setting for the ceremony to the cocktail hour to the amazing food. At the end of the evening, numerous people told me that it was the best wedding the had ever been to. Several other people told me they would love to have their own wedding there. I would strongly recommend this venue if you are looking for something unique, distinctive and beautiful.
My wedding was June 27, 2015. I hate having to do this, I'm not a mean person but I have to let the future brides know. It's been over 6 months and I'm still devastated. Please No that I fell for the dream wedding as well. I swear everything that I wrote is 100% truth.
Beautiful location but they DO NOT HAVE A RAIN CONTINGENCY PLAN! My wedding was in June and it rained. Power went out but they DO NOT OWN A BACK UP GENERATOR! So my wedding was in the DARK for over an hour! They had to "BORROW" one from a neighbor. What if they didnt have one? What would they have done? Rain POURED into the tent because they didnt have anything to keep the rain out except a man with a brooom. They never put out my wedding book, my favors (which i spent over 1000 hours making) heel protectors, thumb print tree, and more.All of the details us as brides plan for over a year... NONE OF IT WAS PUT OUT! Dan promised me decor for my ceremony never got that,. They didn't have any backup locations for us to take pictures in. My gown WAS RUINED because all they had was an OPEN GOLF CART and to top it all off... We never got to cut our wedding cake because THE POWER WAS OUT but when we picked up our wedding cake SOMEONE CUT 40% OF THE TOP LAYER OF OUR WEDDING CAKE! No lie! Spent over $30,000 for nothing. Could have had the same wedding in a VFW.I would NEVER EVER suggest this location because they keep blaming the rain when it was 100% their fault. Im not unreasonable. If it was just rain I could get over that but this... I cant.I saw the books of the "fairy tale" weddings and i fell for the hype too. It has been months and I am and will always be devastated. They have kept SO MANY OF MY ITEMS including centerpieces, heel protectors, my RSVP cards, candles and half of my glassware. On the UPSIDE... FOOD WAS AMAZING! Maybe if I saw a review like this I wouldnt have booked thre. There are so many B&B to choose from. My suggestion, go somewhere else.
The Inn at Fernbrook Farms is breathtaking. The staff will make you feel right at home and your guests will be in awe of its beauty. Fernbrook is, quite simply, a dream venue.
My wedding was everything I have ever dreamed of. This venue is perfect for any bride who wants to get married in a super private setting that is beautiful any time of the year. You don't need too many decorations because the area is pretty as is. Our ceremony and cocktail hour were in the cottage garden, and the reception was under the clear top tent with bistro lights. Check it out! You'll fall in love, guaranteed!
The Inn at Fernbrook Farms was a perfect wedding venue - you have an adorably quaint old inn where guests or the wedding party can actually stay for the weekend, beautiful gardens in which to have your ceremony, and its all set on the backdrop of a working farm with beautiful fields and even some pigs and goats! The setting truly makes for the most beautiful wedding. The staff are totally willing to help you create a personalized event - they work with excellent caterers, allow you to bring your own alcohol, and are flexible with timing, ceremony locations, decorating the venue space, etc. The staff aren't the most responsive, but they are definitely there when you need them to answer questions and make sure everything is in order. Amazing experience!
Property is stunning, with a beautiful 17th century manor house that is now used a bed and breakfast. The owner, Susie, is very laid back and easy to work with. The house, while historic, doesn't feel fussy; it's easy to sit down and put your feet up. Loved this property from the minute we first visited it, and still love it 3 weeks after the event.
