They are amazing. Our Mitra D was amazing. And from booking the venue 618 days until our wedding day on Sept 20, 2026… they made everything super easy and less stress on the bride and we got the hotels for guests, someone to do the ceremony and even our photographers. They were amazing and the food was awesome. Our guests said it was 100% the party of the century

Our wedding at The Tides Estate was everything we hoped for and more. From the moment we toured the venue, we knew it was the right place, and the actual wedding day exceeded even our highest expectations, thanks to Michael and the amazing team. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful—elegant, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed for weddings. The ceremony space and reception areas both looked stunning and required very little additional decoration because the setting speaks for itself. What really stood out, though, was our experience working with Michael. Throughout the entire process, he was very patient, responsive, helpful, and detail-oriented, fielding our numerous questions, from planning to execution, and helping us craft every aspect of the day. Especially on the wedding day itself, him and the entire staff were professional, attentive, and incredibly organized. Everything ran on time and smoothly, which allowed us to fully enjoy the day without worrying about logistics. The service was also outstanding, and our guests consistently commented on how impressed they were with the quality of everything from start to finish. We’re so grateful for Michael and the entire team at The Tides Estate for helping make our wedding day feel effortless and truly special. We would highly recommend it to any couple looking for a beautiful and well-run wedding venue, often what we referred to as a hidden gem in NJ.

Located in North Haledon, NJ, The Tides Estate is an elegant wedding venue with a sprawling seven acres of lush green gardens. Specializing in luxury white-glove banquet weddings, the estate is historically renowned for delicious catering. Initially a bootleg whiskey distillery, the grounds were purchased by German immigrant George Werner. Eventually, George rebranded the property into a picnic grove which his son later built upon, opening an on-site restaurant. After several changes of hands, The Tides Estate remains New Jersey’s best-kept secret for gourmet specialty foods. Upon arriving at the great house, guests step inside a world of opulence and refined furnishings. Magnificent chandeliers adorn the decorative ceilings and light cascades from the towering floor-to-ceiling windows. Ceremonies and receptions can take place in several event spaces on the property, such as the gardens, the lobby, and two lavish ballrooms. The ballrooms feature stunning parquet floors ideal for a romantic first dance. These spacious halls can accommodate a variety of seating styles and floor plans, allowing for total customization. Every corner of the estate is perfectly maintained and will infuse photos with unforgettable beauty. The Tides Estate offers all-inclusive wedding packages complete with delicious catering and bar services. Beginning with private tours, couples can meet with a professional banquet manager to discuss the menu and their vision for the big day. On the day, you and your guests will be greeted by uniformed valets and a glass of Champagne, setting the tone for the rest of the special occasion. Dining styles include butler-style hors d'oeuvres, buffets, and seated, served by highly skilled white-glove staff. Additional luxuries include a signature hand-carved ice sculpture, in-house designed invitations, and cuisines such as sushi stations and lobster stations.

The Tides has a beautiful setting and held 300 guests perfectly. The staff was amazing. The food was great. Unfortunately, they understaffed the bar staff significantly which had a...

major negative impact on our guest experience. They knew it was staffed poorly and didn’t correct. We should have had 6 bartenders by their own admission. We had 3 for the cocktail hour and 4 for the reception and after hour. I was unable to find anyone who admitted they could do anything about it and, as of a week later, have not heard back from an owner. They claim they hold 400 but admit they can’t have more than 4 bartenders behind the bar. The lines were 25 minutes long. The waiters serving tables also had to wait on line. This caused people to order multiple drinks so they didn’t have to wait and made the lines worse. The bartenders were also very slow and unfriendly.

l in making our special day so perfect. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and at ease. We arrived earlier than expected, and despite a wedding wrapping up just before ours, the team was incredibly accommodating. There was not one bad comment or feedback on the food, in fact our guests raved on every single dish, especially the Mac n cheese with shrimp in cocktail hour. A special thank you to Mike, the maître d’, who was simply outstanding. He ensured everything ran flawlessly and was incredibly attentive to our needs. His calm and professional presence made a huge difference in making our day feel stress-free and extra special. The venue itself is absolutely breathtaking. It made for stunning photos, and the look on our guests' faces as they walked in said it all… pure awe. This place truly lives up to its name as the “hidden gem.” We’re so grateful to have celebrated our day here and would recommend it all the time to any couple searching for their dream venue.

s a LIFE SAVER and honestly everything happens for a reason, because we were so beyond happy with our experience at the tides, they gave us so much more than we would have gotten. Michael took care of us, everything we wanted we got, and for the right price too! Thank god! Throughout the entire day, I did not have to question or worry about one thing. Everything was taken care of, our Maitre D was present, supportive and on top of everything, anything that "went wrong" was fixed and taken care of before I even heard about it! The food was AMAZING, we were a little nervous because we were not offered a tasting, but they did not disappoint. The cocktail hour was plentiful, and the dinners were phenomenal. We had 195 guests, so it was a big crowd! But everyone was accommodated for quickly and happily 🙂 In a way the tides was our "second choice" but it was truly the best choice, we are so so happy we ended up going with them everything went so smoothly we could not have been happier!

d not miss a beat. The venue itself was stunning—perfectly maintained, with a beautiful space for our reception. Every detail was taken care of, and the staff was attentive and professional throughout the entire event. A special shout-out to Mike, the maître d’. He was beyond amazing! Mike went above and beyond to ensure that everything ran smoothly. His expertise and calming presence made the day stress-free, and his attention to detail was unmatched. He truly made our wedding day unforgettable. We couldn't have asked for a better venue or team. Highly recommend The Tides Estate to any couple looking for a top-notch wedding experience!

fresh drink in my hand and did not have to worry about a thing. He directed my bridal party and helped get everyone where they needed to be. He was always within reach if we needed anything and made the night go so so smoothly. Michael, the banquet manager was amazing, he answered any and all questions I had throughout the planning process. We paid a bit extra to get there at 6:30am which included a beautiful breakfast spread of bagels and pastries. Anything we needed we had someone to chat with and the entire staff made the night go perfectly.

ked us through everything and put us at ease. The day of the wedding, Mike, our maître de, made sure that everything was perfect, down to the last detail. Our guests were in awe of how beautiful the venue was and everyone was raving about the delicious food. We had 275 people at our wedding and the space held everyone comfortably. There was more than enough room for everyone to dance and move around. One of my favorite parts of the venue, besides the stunning banquet room, is that the cocktail hour room had enough seating for everyone to sit to and enjoy their food. We got incredibly lucky that the weather was beautiful and our guests got to enjoy the beautifully maintained grounds. We can't thank the team at The Tides Estate enough for making our wedding day go so smoothly and everything that we hoped it would be and more!!!

married here! When we met with Mike he answered every question we had and was so patient with us. He explained each step and in the time we had between booking and the actual wedding day Michael was always available to calm my nerves! They worked extremely well with all the vendors specially our day of coordinator. Our decorations were displayed so well and were packed back up with care. My husband and I never wanted for anything during the day and the maitre’d we had (also another Michael) was always handing us water, drinks, or food. It was like magic haha. All of our guests commented how much food there was and no one left hungry (the food was amazing!)…they also raved about the drinks and the bar staff (apparently the espresso martinis are totally worth it!). In the morning when I was getting ready with my girls I also felt so cared for…plenty of snacks and drinks to sustain us. We are so happy with the choice of having our wedding here and are grateful for their hospitality and generosity. Thank you Mike Stroganoff and team!

Melissa S

hings about our experience here. We worked with Tito from the very first time we viewed the venue and we instantly knew this was where we wanted to celebrate our love. The entire staff was so friendly and professional. Any question we may have had Tito was there to answer in a timely manner. Alberto was our maitre d for the day and was absolutely AMAZING. Our decor was set up beautifully and exactly how we asked and he always made sure we had everything we needed. For the entrees, he gave us a sample of all the choices we had picked. Let me just say, delicious is not even the word to describe the abundance of food we had! Everyone raved about how delicious the food from cocktail hour and entrees were. We were so impressed how the food was displayed during cocktail hour and how they continued to replenish any dishes that were almost empty. The choices were endless! We could not have dreamt of a better venue to have our wedding. You will not be disappointed when you choose The Tides!

Kevin L

Tito helped us with all our planning and made a stressful day smooth sailing. He answered all our questions before we were able to ask them. He was very professional but yet the ki...

ndest and friendliest man to work with. I can't thank him or say enough good things about him. He is simply great. He assigned Steve as our maître d. We are so thankful to have Steve on our side. Steve made us feel like a King and Queen. Every detail was covered by Steve. Things that we would have never thought of were covered by Steve. Steve made sure our guests were as happy as we were. Again, both made our wedding the most happiest day of our lives and very stress free. Our guests told us that this was the best wedding they have ever attended. Yes our guests said best wedding they have ever attended. Two of our guests just attended a wedding the week before at a different venue and said ours was great and the other one was no comparison even though the couple were financially better off than we are. The Tides as you can see when you visit, is a beautiful estate with multitudes of delicious food choices. But these alone don't make a great wedding. Tito, Steve and his staff made our wedding great. Theresa and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts. God bless you both!

ur banquet manager and he was so great at answering all of our questions and making sure our every request were applied. The food was amazing and we had so many options to choose from. The price was very reasonable considering everything we had included! It included the cake, the ice sculpture, cocktail hour, plus the open bar was top notch. Its also conveniently located in the beautiful area of North Jersey so you and your guests will get that immediate feeling of elegance the second you arrive at the well kept estate. If you are looking for a wedding venue that will take care of everything then look no further because the Tides Estate has everything you need.

Our Wedding Reception at the Tides Estate could not have gone better. From the beginning, we had an extremely professional and productive relationship with Mike Stroganoff. He was ...

extremely straight forward and certainly has a tremendous amount of experience with these events. His attention to detail is unbelievable and he deserves more plaudits than we can give. It certainly put our minds at ease. The timeline of planning provided by him was very appropriate and allowed us to hash out the details we wanted. The event was executed so well. The guests were simply in awe of the venue and the event. The feedback was simply tremendous and we could not have asked for more. The Maitre'D (Alberto) was extremely attentive to sequence of events and even made sure that we had something to eat in the midst of the event. It was truly a pleasure to work with Mike Stroganoff from the beginning to the end. We enthusiastically recommend the Tides Estate to anyone looking for an amazing venue to host their important life events.

ke we were meant to postpone our wedding at the other venue because The Tides was our dream come true. We completely fell in love with the venue and made a decision to move forward right then and there. Tito and his team were so accommodating with us and really executed our vision of our wedding day. Our Maitre D’ Albert was AMAZING! He was so attentive and flexible and made us feel comfortable the entire time. All of our guests left super impressed with our venue and haven’t been able to stop talking about our wedding. Thank you to everyone at The Tides who help make our dreams come true!

The Tides is one of the most beautiful venues around. From the second I turned into the drive for the Tides and saw the cobblestone road I was hooked. The venue inside is absolutel...

y gorgeous and the chandelier in the main lobby is stunning. The main ballroom has beautiful high ceilings which bring so much volume to the room! After our initial tour, I was ready to sign. When we first booked the Tides we were working with Tom. He was very kind and definitely helped us ensure everything we wanted for our big day. When we had to postpone it in 2020, Tom left and we started to work with Michael. Michael is wonderful to work with as well. He cares and is willing to answer any question that is thrown his way. He is willing to meet at any time and he accommodates the bride and groom's needs. When our day at the Tides finally arrived we were greeted by Michael and Michael the maitre'd as we got off the limo. We were welcomed into the Tides and they were genuinely so happy we finally got our day at the venue. Michael, the maitre’d was phenomenal. Anything we asked he did for us. He would bring us drinks, water, food for us without even asking. He helped me package all the stuff up at the end of the night and store it for an easy pick up the next day. He was such a wonderful person to work with. The Tides was such an amazing venue and I really hope someone I know gets married there so I can go back as a guest because the food was amazing, the venue was gorgeous, and it was truly the best day of our lives.

I can’t even begin to describe how much I loved having my wedding at the Tides! Tito was a 10/10 to work with! He gave us an amazing price and was willing to work with us with all ...

this COVID crazyness! He was super attentive to email and answered all my 100000 questions. Mike was our Maître D and he was also a 10/10. He knows what he is doing and he was there for all of our needs the day of the wedding. His service was impeccable! He is a bit intense but I think it’s just the nature of the job and the fact that he is ensuring your event goes without a glitch. But super nice guy and made us feel super special! The Venue is BEAUTIFUL!!! The outdoor ceremony space is amazing and the ballroom is to die for!!! The food is fantastic as well! I can’t wait to be invited to a wedding there so I can experience it as a guest! Haha. I already miss going there! In summary…. Have your wedding at the Tides.

We are so happy we were able to have our wedding at The Tides in November 2020. Our wedding was originally scheduled for April 2020, and we had to move our date a few times due to ...

COVID. The staff was a delight to work with throughout the entire process. They were very accommodating, and we were finally able to have our wedding in November with a smaller guest count as required by the state. They took all precautions cleaning the venue, staff wearing masks and gloves, plastic shields for the bars and food displays, hand sanitizer stations, etc. Our wedding was in The Manchester room downstairs, and it was absolutely beautiful. We had our ceremony and reception at The Tides, and I also got ready in the bridal suite with my bridal party. Having everything in one place like The Tides provided made the day so much less stressful since we did not need to worry about transportation. Our guests are STILL raving about the food! I am a bit of a foodie, and sometimes you never know what you are going to get with large quantities of wedding food. The cocktail hour was over the top with so much tasty food, and the dinner was even better! I was also pleasantly surprised by how moist and delicious the cake was that was provided by David’s next door. A special thank you to Michael our banquet manager, Tito, and Dianne for making our wedding unforgettable!

To say wedding planning during Covid has been stressful would be an understatement but I am so grateful my fiancé and I chose The Tides Estate to have our ceremony and reception at...

. Tito, the banquet manager has been so incredibly pleasant to work with and truly took so much weight and pressure off our shoulders during this difficult time. He was very accommodating and we were able to reach him at any given time whenever we had questions or concerns(which I had plenty of!) The venue itself is very beautiful and elegant with a gorgeous garden in the back where our ceremony took place. Due to covid we had a significantly reduced guest count and our reception ended up being set up outside of the cocktail hour room. We had our worries how it would all pan out and look but I have to say everything was beautiful, organized, and felt like a lovely intimate dinner celebration with our loved ones. Thank you to Tito, Michael, Our maitre D Alberto, Diane, and the rest of the Tides staff for your hard work and making our special day even more special!

Melanie G

I am a bride that had to postpone my wedding due to COVID-19. Throughout the entire process Tito at the Tides has been nothing but amazing. He has made the postponing process easy ...

and smooth and has reassured us that he is going to work with us on the minimum because it may be difficult to gather 200 people (200 is their minimum) during this time. Not only is this venue beautiful and gives you that WOW factor, the people there make this amazing time even better. Having the Tides Estate being so understanding and flexible during a time like this is just refreshing and a huge relief.

ughout the entire process of planning and on the day, our maître d, Steve was the best. He made sure everything was going well and that my husband and I were well fed and well taken care of! They really care about their clients. I couldn’t have imagined a more perfect wedding day. Great staff, great food, great drinks, beautiful venue. Got lots of compliments saying the venue looked like it came out of a movie. Also not to mention that they made sure that all of my favors and extras were set up. Not one single detail was forgotten or left out. I would pick the tides all over again if I had to!

Everything was set up perfectly and he anticipated our needs the whole night! Our guests raved about the food, particularly at cocktail hour. They are still talking about how amazing it was! My BIL works in hospitality and is a chef, and he said the food and the service was top notch. I really cannot say enough good things about The Tides - it truly was a fairytale

The Tides was the absolute most dreamy venue! We had the most magical day and Tom was an absolute pleasure to work with.

he awesome, unexpected stuff well (e.g., Ice Sculptures, Extravagant Desert Rooms, Top-Shelf Bar/Service) but also get the little, very important things right. There's ample parking, valet service, incredible Maitre'd service, Wedding Coordinator support (thanks Tom!) and more. Both our guests and vendors found the Tides an absolute pleasure. The way the Wedding Coordinator, Maitre'd and staff collaborated with our vendors was nothing short of spectacular. I would strongly recommend the Tides to friends/family. Thanks to Tom, Mike and the Tides family for making our event one to cherish and remember for years to come.

Place is beautiful along with the landscaping outside, which was amazing for photos. It’s very nice away from the main highways it’s on a quiet road which is why I also liked it so much. But most of all the food... was delicious. Definitely would recommend this place for a wedding or any kind of big event anyone has.

He knows everything from getting napkins down on my dress every time I ate something with color , he had my cocktail hour all set up upstairs as well where he was so smart to have my husband and I sneak away for few minutes just to enjoy by ourselves it was our moment to soak everything in before the party! Mike was just amazing and was a huge part of making our night perfect. The food was outstanding everything was perfect! The tides is beautiful and provided amazing service! I would recommend everyone to check it out as an option to get married !!!!

The Tides is a beautiful place to get married. We would recommend this place to anyone. The grounds are beautiful (we got married outside) and Tom (our sales rep) was patient, atte...

ntive and worked with us in every aspect. He ensured we were happy and that everything went smooth. We did have a couple extremely small hiccups with our maitre'de (not Tom) the day of the wedding. However, everything got fixed and everyone had an amazing time. Weeks later we are still getting compliments on the beautiful venue, great tasting food and beautiful ceremony. We had a guest tell us that he is very picky when it comes to wedding venues and that The Tides would fall under is top 5 venues. We absolutely agree with The Tides being towards the top of the list and Tom would be up high on our list as well. We would recommend this venue to anyone who is getting married.

When my husband and I walked into the Tides Estate, we knew it was the one. We chose it almost 2 years before we got married and worked with Tito to create the most magical day pos...

sible. Our guests were blown away by everything that Tides provided. They greeted our guests with champagne, offered endless food at cocktail hour (our guests actually thought it was dinner), had an incredible dinner, and dessert was OUT OF THIS WORLD! Not to mention, they made sure we were happy with everything way before hand. Professional, personable, and memorable are the 3 words I believe are best to describe The Tides and their entire staff. The grand ballroom is like that of a fairytale and I don't think there's a better venue in the world to have created this vision the way they did. If I said thank you for the rest of my life, I still don't think that would be enough because of how incredible they were!

e dessert bar food out longer and served the cake! All that cake went to waste and we should’ve asked to take it home or put it in to go boxes for our guests! We also had a terrific Maitre D, Mike! Very attentive to our needs and he was able to deliver on everything! I wish I had more time to eat, feast on the chocolate fountain and desserts! Overall we had a great experience just a few small details that could’ve been better like placement of our guestbook, serving cake, replenishing our to go stations more often etc. Tom was very flexible in helping us with any requests.

o get married at such a beautiful venue with an awesome staff! Mike stayed with us the entire day, he made sure we ate (because the day can be hectic) and had everything we needed during the wedding! Our wedding was held in the ballroom and it was truly elegant! The venue is so beautifully manicured, the chanidilars are gorgeous, and the gold trim inside the ballroom is the icing on the cake! We had the most perfect wedding at the Tides and I will forever be grateful for the memories!

Tides was there throughout it all making sure we were comfortable felt great with our details. Our maitre de Steve was absolutely outstanding. He ran the show and made sure we were were taken care of and ate the delicious food for each course and had drinks always. Even our parents were taken care of as well! The gardens and our ceremony at the Tides was so gorgeous, We are still getting compliments on it! Every thought in our minds was perfectly executed by the Tides! The food at the Tides was absolutely amazing and he cocktail hour is the best cocktail hour we’ve ever been too. Everything ran so smoothly and the whole night came together beautifully! Tito and everyone at the Tides, thank you for my dream wedding and for being apart of our special day!
