The Rockleigh

leigh, to being the last ones out the door the night of our wedding, we were treated with the utmost respect, and were made to feel so special. Zara and Stephanie are true professionals and were great collaborators for the wedding when it came to menu selection, ambiance, you name it. The entire team were great communicators and I never had an issue for anything I reached out on. The venue, decor, food, everything was all spectacular! Without a doubt I would recommend the Viennese Dessert Table as a station if you want your guests to be amazed. We are still hearing from guests how perfect our day was and I can honestly say I would not change a thing! Zara and her team are the best of the best and I will forever be grateful for how she treated my husband and I, as well as our families and bridal party. Special shout out to Sandra who was one of our Bridal Attendants for the day and she was absolutely perfect. I never had to want anything and she made sure everyone in the bridal party stayed hydrated on a very hot day in May. To put it simply, if you want the best day of your life to be in the best hands, book with The Rockleigh. Thank you so so much to Zara, Stephanie, Sandra, and the entire team!!!

h is a stunning venue with incredible food and amazing service. Access to private suites to get ready, including breakfast and lunch provided, and a day of coordination team for the bridal party were just a few of the ways this venue goes above and beyond. This is a must see when planning your wedding!

ortable and welcome. Jeff was amazing throughout the entire planning process. He gave me his phone number the second we officially booked our date and said to text him anytime. I took him up on that offer and texted him whenever I had a quick question and he would respond almost immediately every time. The day of our wedding he was there from early afternoon until the end of our reception. Jeff made us feel so comfortable and special the entire day. He hugged us and congratulated us a few times. He even pulled my parents aside during our first look so they could have a better view. Jeff was wonderful to work with! I got to The Rockleigh around 9am to start getting ready with my girls. Our maitre d and bridal assistant met with me as soon as I arrived. We were served breakfast and lunch. My bridal assistant, Sandra, was so sweet, caring and so so helpful. She was by my side the entire day. She helped me into my dress, carried my veil and train everywhere and fixed it for the photographer, and helped straighten out my dress every time I stood up. She even steamed all of our dresses and had everything we needed in case of an emergency. Sandra was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. Our reception was in the Bristol Room which is absolutely stunning. We had our ceremony inside because it rained that day and it was intimate and beautiful. Every single person I spoke to after our wedding raved about the cocktail hour. The food is delicious and they have so much variety that everyone could find something they enjoy. The service during cocktail hour and the reception was impeccable. Our glasses were not empty once. Our meals and desserts were also amazing. We chose the wedding sampler plate as our dessert and everyone loved it. As for the grounds, there is not one spot at The Rockleigh I didn’t love. We had our first look outside by the waterfall and gazebo. We were able to take all of our pictures outside before it rained and they turned out stunning. The pool at night is gorgeous. Overall, if you are thinking about having your wedding at The Rockleigh stop thinking and book it. You will not be disappointed. Every single person I dealt with there was so nice and helpful. I did not have to worry about one thing on my wedding day and it’s all because of the wonderful staff at The Rockleigh. The Rockleigh was our first choice and no other venue compared to it. Our day was literally perfect. We’re so sad it’s over but so happy our wedding day was everything we could have ever imagined it to be. Thank you to everyone at The Rockleigh for making our day so special.

ng to say how much fun they had, how gorgeous the venue/ all the details were, and how much fun they had all night. Myself, my family, and my in-laws are in awe of how perfect the entire day was, and that in large is thanks to your team. Specifically, Bari, Melanie, and Anthony were absolutely stellar! It was a true pleasure to work with all of them and appreciated their attentiveness and kindness throughout the entire process. They were both amazing the day of and leading up to the big day. Simply put, I do not think there is another venue to match the caliber of the Rockleigh. Our wedding was everything I had hoped for and more and could not have been happier with it all! It was worth every penny and a memory we will cherish forever.

for a better person to hold our hands every step of the way with your vision and guidance. Jeffrey Spivak—we are the luckiest that you were running our event as we knew we were in great hands from Day One. You made every detail better, and your expertise enhanced every moment of the day. Chef Jimmy-- the food rivaled any Michelin Star restaurants and you made it all look so effortless. Jamie and Anthony took care of us and our guests with an ease and elegance that made us all feel so very important and special. Emily’s bridal attendants, Daniela and Jamie, helped our bride remain calm, collected, and well cared for. The incredibly beautiful Grand Pavilion and outdoor gardens and ceremony spaces were the most magnificent, The professionalism of your staff and team (including Susan, Natalie, Hugo et al) at every moment was unparalleled! Truly, Emily and Chris’ wedding at The Rockleigh was the best day ever for all of us. And how on earth did you manage to arrange the most spectacular weather for our special day? We cannot thank you enough for making this joyous process so seamless! You are, by far, the best in the business, and we all thank you, from the very bottom of our hearts.

s, we just could not help but compare with the Rockleigh and knew we just had to book with them. Jeff and Susan were absolutely AMAZING to work with from the very beginning. They kept us informed throughout the entire process and were always available to answer every question. We had to push up our original June wedding date to April because I became unexpectedly pregnant, but Jeff and Susan were so accommodating, responsive, and reassured us that everything would go smoothly (which it did). Our wedding was this past Thursday and the day was the most perfect, magical day of our lives. Everything was set up beautifully and exceeded our expectations. We were blown away by the service and level of professionalism shown by the entire staff, and our guests could not stop raving about the food and desserts! I was so sure we would feel relieved once it was over, but we actually wish we could go back and relive every second of that day. We truly hope we get to go back to the Rockleigh next time as a guest so that we can enjoy the venue and all the amazing food again! Thank you to Jeff, Susan, and the entire Rockleigh family for this once in a lifetime experience that we will never forget!

s. I appreciated how much hand holding that Jeff (our key contact at the venue) provided throughout the process, especially as our wedding was in between COVID waves. Additionally, the planning websites/systems at Rockleigh was so easy to manage in the weeks leading up to the wedding, so I appreciated how the logistical nightmares that are usually associated with weddings did not play out for us! The one thing my spouse said to me after the wedding is that he would love to go back to the Rockleigh as a guest to a wedding and experience it all over again as a guest!

s with everything we needed to have the best day. So many of our guests were impressed by the venue itself, and everyone raved about the food. Seriously my dream venue and I can't imagine a better day anywhere else. Thank you!

y was there every step of the way leading up to the wedding day. The reason for our flawless day is because of Jeff and The Rockleigh team. There is a reason it is called The Rockleigh Experience. Jeff was the most patient person, answering all our questions at all hours of the day. The day of the wedding he was making sure everything was going smoothly and all vendors arriving on time. We cannot thank Jeff enough for everything he did to make our day perfect! Next we want to thank Natalie and Susan. They are the backbone of the venue, making sure all questions are answered and updated the portal every time we had a change. Thank you both for working with us, including during the last week leading up to my wedding when we had to make so many changes to the seating chart. Next we want to thank our maître d, Jamie. Jamie, thank you, thank you, thank you for being our right hand man. You went above and beyond the entire night, making sure there was always a smile on our faces. You are very professional and I can’t thank you enough for everything you did for us and our family. I also want to thank you for getting Halvah and Jelly Rings the day before the wedding. Both families were very happy! You made sure the entire night was running effortlessly. Next we would like to thank the groom’s attendant, Skyler. Skyler, you are the man!! Our groomsmen cannot stop talking about you and how above and beyond you went for them. Some of the notable items include you setting up the TV so the guys can watch March Madness, going to get Nutella cake at a local bakery and you giving grandpa your suspenders. Thank you for everything!! Next came my bridal attendants, Jamie (blonde Jamie) and Sandra. Both of you were so patient with me and by my side the entire day. You were both always one step ahead of me. Thank you for fixing my bracelet and for doing my bustle that I was so worried of! I am so thankful that you both were with my mom and I the whole day and night and gave us an experience of a lifetime. I also would like to thank Blush and Brush Event Styling. Even though they are separate, their suites at The Rockleigh are absolutely beautiful. Maryanne, who owns Blush and Brush, went above and beyond for me the whole day. I had her, the makeup artist and hair stylist with me till my reception and it was the best thing I could have ever done! For everyone reading this, my recommendation would be to keep them all day to fix up hair and makeup. Lastly, the entire Rockleigh staff is truly the best in the business. Each staff member was kind, professional and the reason why our guests had the experience they did. The Rockleigh is such a beautiful venue inside and out! When my guests walked in they all say WOW!! This venue makes a statement with its elegance. There is no place like The Rockleigh! Thank you to Jeff, Jamie, Skyler, Jamie, Sandra, Maryanne and the rest of The Rockleigh team for producing the wedding of our dreams and showing us The Rockleigh Experience!

re we had to have our wedding. Jeff truly held our hand through the entire process, pre, during and post wedding. I can say with full honesty, I don’t know how we could have done it without him. He was so patient with every question, and there were many! On the day of, he dealt with our vendors with ease, truly taking the stress off of us. It was raining all morning and Jeff knew how desperately we wanted to have our ceremony outside, so he worked with the florist to wait until the last possible moment to make the decision. If he didn’t do that, we wouldn’t have been able to have the beautiful ceremony outside that we ended up having. We’ll forever be grateful to Jeff for that. Next came our maitre d’ Anthony. There are no words for this man. I felt like he was an extended family member from the second I met him. This man went above and beyond his role, to the point where he even let my dad borrow his tuxedo cummerbund to wear during the whole ceremony and reception!! Anthony kept everything on track the entire event. Every one of our guests commented on his professionalism and management skills. I believe whole heartedly that our special day would not have been the same without him. Next came my bridal attendant, Daniela. She was so patient with me and was by my side the entire day. On top of that, she is one of the kindest people and was always one step ahead. I am so thankful that she was with me and my mom the whole time and gave us an experience of a lifetime. Lastly, the entire Rockleigh staff is truly the best in the business. With my experience being an Event Manager myself in the past, I know the ins and outs of this business. The Rockleigh is in a category of their own. Each staff member was kind, professional and 100% a reason why our guests had the experience they did. Every single guest made a point to tell us that our wedding was the best wedding they had ever been to and that they had never experienced a venue like The Rockleigh. I can’t write this review without touching on the beauty of The Rockleigh. Every part of the venue is beautiful, from the to die for bridal salon to the gorgeous ceremony spaces to the updated/classy reception halls (even the spotless, modern bathrooms!), there is not one area of this venue that went unnoticed. They are constantly upgrading the venue and there is a lot to say for that, as this is something you do not often find. I can’t thank you all enough for making our dream wedding come to life! The combination of the stunning venue, beyond delicious array of food (& we’re Italian so we’re very judgmental when it comes to food) & the exceptional staff, you do not want to look any further than The Rockleigh! Thank you a million times over to Jeff, Anthony, Daniela and the rest of the incredible Rockleigh team for producing the wedding of (and beyond) our dreams!

took our design notes for how we wanted everything displayed. The team was receptive of our vision and ensured it was executed flawlessly. The grounds at the property are gorgeous, and we are so happy we were able to take photos everywhere! Our maitre'd, Tony, was beyond fabulous. He went the extra mile and was our best friend by the end of the night! The food was incredible and the staff made sure my husband and I were able to try everything! Our guests have not stopped talking about our "Rockleigh wedding!" Thank you to Bari and everyone at The Rockleigh for an amazing wedding and a perfect day!

ular were great! But the entire Rockleigh staff is so friendly & accommodating. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone! We were told countless time we had the best wedding many guests had ever attended. I wish we could do it all over again! Thank you, The Rockleigh!!!

Bari was so so so amazing to work with. She was so personable and made the process so smooth for us even when we decided to postpone our date. We finally had our dream wedding on November 28th, 2021 and could not have asked for a more perfect experience at the most breathtaking venue. The whole Rockleigh team was so great and easy to work with. My dream, luxury wedding was a reality thanks to The Rockleigh!

wasn't just because of how gorgeous the venue was inside and out, but it was the generosity, the attention to detail, and the amazing customer service which I will hold near and dear to my heart! Anthony was my assigned Maitre'd and we are in love with him. He ensured that everyone in the wedding party and guest was well taken care of. Dania assisted me in the bridal suite and blew my mind with the fact that she knew how to do the bustle of my dress without seeing a video. Overall I am in awe and really wish I could relive this day again. Thank you Rockleigh for such an amazing experience that I will cherish for the rest of my life.

were absolutely fabulous, and so was the entire staff, especially my amazing bridal attendant, Daniela. They truly take care of every detail and make your special day the best! We highly recommend the Rockleigh for your fairytale wedding come to life!

e amazing to work with encompassing every single detail. They were there through text call or email whenever I needed anything and were so great the two weeks leading up until the big day. They truly make you feel like family and your wedding day is just as important to them. If you are looking for excellent service and great food the Rockleigh is the way to go!! I could not say this enough but the venue is so beautiful but the staff makes everything even better. I could not recommend this venue enough!! It was easily the best decision we ever made to have our wedding there!

from the grounds and rooms being gorgeous and the food being amazing, they take care of everything for you so you can get the most out of your day. They will absolutely make sure you have your dream your wedding and all of your guests leave talking about how fabulous it all was. They are organized, accommodating, responsive and beyond professional. We would do it all again at the Rockleigh without question.

o work with, guided us throughout the planning, and made sure every detail was covered. Eddie answered all our questions, was gracious and responsive throughout the planning process, and created the most wonderful wedding we have ever seen - and more! We are still getting compliments from many of our guests and one has even booked her wedding at the Rockleigh after being a guest at ours. Eddie knows how important a wedding is and he creates the perfect wedding with absolutely no hassles or aggravation. We hopefully have one more wedding to do and we will definitely do it at the Rockleigh and simply ask Eddie to do exactly what he did for our first wedding. It was that wonderful! We will not even consider other venues. The Rockleigh staff was also super! Gloria, Colon, and everyone else were 100% helpful and attentive on the day of the wedding. They didn't let us do a thing - they did everything and they did everything perfectly. Because of their professional help, the day of the wedding and the entire wedding itself was so much fun. We really didn't expect to enjoy the wedding so much, but the Rockleigh staff made sure we had a great time. The dining room and reception service was fantastic. Everyone was very attentive and professional and we got many compliments about excellent the service was. Everything at the wedding was perfect - we would not change anything and would do it again exactly the same way! Two final points: Planning our wedding for early August 2021 was stressful because of the pandemic. We didn't know if the maximum number of guests would change and were also concerned about having a safe seating arrangement. Here's where having a pro like Eddie with you makes all the difference. Eddie guided us through every step and kept us informed of all the guidelines. The Rockleigh has the ability to accommodate a very large number of people while complying with social distancing. There is no seating arrangement that Eddie cannot do. Eddie helped us design a seating plan that everyone loved! Many guests told us how comfortable they were with the spacious rooms as well as the beautiful outdoor seating. Finally, having our wedding at the Rockleigh was the perfect decision. There is not a major difference in costs between the different venues, and the beauty, service, and value at the Rockleigh can't be beat. Our daughter wanted a "fairy tale" wedding and The Rockleigh gave us a spectacular, beautiful, tasteful, and fun experience that we and our guests will always remember. We really cannot describe how grateful we are to the people at the Rockleigh for making our wedding so perfect!

ehind and entrust that they will pack it up for you to pick up next day as they lost/through out my veil. Very disappointing!! They said they are reimbursing me but not the same bc i No longer have my veil that had a sentimental value

in love. Of course we had heard such amazing things about it but to actually experience it was a whole other level! We were treated like royalty all night and did not have to worry about a thing- just enjoyed ourselves and the beautiful night with our closest family & friends. We worked with Zara and her assistant Stephanie who were sooo helpful getting everything in place for the big day. We hit a little bump in the road when we had to postpone our wedding a whole year because of covid but everything ended up working out perfectly. The night of our wedding, all of the staff was incredible and super helpful. Colon was our maitre d' and we loved him! Gloria, who also helped us all night, was an absolute angel. She was always ready to help us throughout the night whether it was to get us food, drinks, help with my bustle, down to small gestures like having my lipstick & gloss ready for me right before our entrance. It is rare to hear of a bride & groom getting to try all of the food but we sure did! Thanks to the staff. All of our guests were raving about how much food there was and how delicious it was. I could go on and on but just want to say a big THANK YOU to the Rockleigh- We will never forget this beautiful night!!!

ons and being so accommodating while planning during COVID. The day of the wedding, we had the best bridal attendant Arisa and Colon who attended to our every need before we could even think about it. Together with the staff, they helped to make the day so effortless and exactly as we had imagined. The venue is stunning — grand chandeliers, white marble, huge ballrooms. We took advantage of the beautiful salon and suites the morning of our wedding as our getting ready space and the Rockleigh graciously provided us with breakfast and lunch for all of our bridesmaids and family. We appreciate their kindness and the ways in which they really went above and beyond! If you choose to get married at the Rockleigh you will not be disappointed! Our guests even two months later are raving about the cocktail hour, entrees, and outdoor space! We are so grateful for our amazing Rockleigh team for helping to make this beautiful day possible!

nderful and responsive and who gave us so much individualized attention. We had to postpose twice because of COVID, and each time, Bari was both incredibly helpful and reassuring. Bari promised us that we'd have the wedding of our dreams—and we did! The venue itself is gorgeous and the food is incredible. A month later, we still have guests "arguing" over what was better, the steak or the salmon and raving about the fried Oreos at our Viennese table. Our wedding day ran so smoothly because the Rockleigh was on top of everything. My attendant Daniella was absolutely amazing—she even managed to bustle my complicated dress in what felt like no time! We can't recommend the Rockleigh enough and will be forever grateful for everything they did to make our wedding a day we'll never forget!

e Rockleigh so we can go back!!!

sure our day was better than we could’ve imagined. I still have guests raving about their experience and how much they loved the quality of service they received. From what I’ve heard from the guests at our wedding was everyone loved the cocktail hour. The food options were great and they loved the experience. Throughout the night there was so much food our guests were beyond pleased with everything. Many guests also complimented the staff and the quality of service they received. I loved my experience with the Rockleigh and will definitely recommend this venue.

nces, but all-around the Rockleigh had everything we wanted. A big reception room for our 200 guests (we invited about 260) , a beautiful outdoor space for the reception (and a feasible indoor backup should it rain), and amazing food. And I can go on and bore you about typical venue ratings, like how great the photos look, what type of food we liked best (all of it by the way), and the layout of the building, but I'll spare you the details and tell you what really separates the Rockleigh from all the other venues in the area. THE PEOPLE! Yes, the employees at the Rockleigh were the difference between a good wedding and an amazing wedding! Every time we walked into the venue during our planning stages, every worker knew our name. They really treated us like family, and that's just an attribute that can't be quantified. You can find beautiful, top-notch venues in the area, (not to say the Rockleigh doesn't fall into this category) but to find employees who truly want to put together the wedding of your dreams is what puts the Rockleigh on a level of its own. We booked our wedding date about 1 1/2 years in advance, and for that entire time we were in constant contact with our Event Coordinator, Jeffery. Jeffery catered to our every need. He was responsive with all of our questions, recommended the best vendors in the area, and even suggested a wedding planner who also helped make everything seamless. He was there for the actual event running the show and making sure every detail was exactly how we wanted it. But it wasn't just him. The maitre d, the waiters, the chefs, the bus boys, the bartenders, the bridal staff, and everyone else involved in putting together our wedding day were perfectly on point. There were a few hiccups in terms of the event schedule (we ran a little late taking photos, some of the speeches were made out of order etc...) but I wouldn't place that blame on the Rockleigh staff. Something I can't stress enough for couples picking a venue, make sure you surround yourselves with professionals who will do everything in their power to make your day memorable. If you find yourself at the Rockleigh, you came to the right place.
