If you're looking to have a barn wedding in New Jersey / the Philly area, your search stops here.
When my husband and I set out to find a wedding venue, we never imagined we'd be so lucky to find something as special as WoodsEdge Farm. We wan...ted something rustic, something unique, and something that would serve as a beautiful backdrop to our very personalized wedding. WoodsEdge was that and so much more.
We immediately fell in love with the barn, which is clean, huge, and comes with string lights (!!!!!). The upstairs bridal suite is absolutely charming, the balcony overlooking the barn is a wonderful touch, and the bathrooms are clean and plentiful. Our guests were blown away by what a beautiful reception space the barn was.
Not only is the barn spectacular, owners Amy and Brent are also an absolute DREAM to work with. They are responsive, helpful, easy going, and just about the nicest people you'll ever meet. No question was too annoying. No ask was too great. They just want to make sure your wedding dreams come true in their fantastic space. (Seriously, they let us put tassels on one of the llamas and wrangled him for a photo shoot with us!) Amy and Brent communicated with our vendors, let us visit no fewer than three times, recommended an amazing liquor service, helped with setup (including helping assemble our chuppah!), assisted SO much with the clean up (which we did not ask for nor expect), and dealt with the many personalities of our family and wedding team (us included!), ALWAYS with smiles on their faces. It's easy to see that Amy and Brent love what they do.
And last but not least, the llamas. They are the most charming animals you could imagine. They are sweet and social, and they DON'T spit or smell. They were just as curious about the guests as the guests were about them. At the beginning of the reception, almost all the guests were hanging out with the llamas, feeding them, taking pictures, having the best time. I already mentioned the photo shoot with one of them, but you should seriously take them up on it!
Other things to note:
The ceremony space near the tree outside was beyond perfect. We couldn't have asked for a more gorgeous spot to get married.
You need to provide your own caterer, which was great for us because we needed kosher catering anyway, so that works out nicely if you have a similar scenario. We had to rent a cook's tent for the caterer.
Our wedding was the last weekend of August and the weather was perfect. It did not get too hot at any point, and by 5/6pm it was so comfortable and gorgeous outside.
Our experience with WoodsEdge was an 11 out of 10. Beyond our wildest dreams. Like I said, your barn wedding search stops here!
