Bishop Farmstead is THE perfect venue for any couple who is looking for a cozy and rustic feel for their celebration! This was our first and only venue that my fiancé and I toured and we instantly fell in love with the beautiful and well-kept grounds and barn; we knew that there was no other place that could compare. Bishop Farmstead perfectly fit our vision for a rustic, yet still elegant and classy wedding reception space. Compared to many other NJ venues, especially for the September-October months, the venue was very reasonably priced. The decor/style that the venue provides is naturally gorgeous, especially the candle package. Definitely recommend Bishop Farmstead if you are looking for a laid-back and timeless wedding/reception.

We got married at Turkey Trac Farms in June of 2023 & I can easily say that it was the best decision we ever made. I look back at our wedding and I can truly say that I enjoyed every step of the experience because of how down-to-early, personable, and accommodating Miranda at Turkey Trac Farms is. It's so hard to find a place where you can custom plan your wedding day and have an unlimited number of options with vendors, personalization, and decor. We were able to choose our own caterer, DJ, photographer, photobooth, hair/makeup team, etc. We were allowed to bring our own decor and even had the night before to come decorate ourselves. And the best part, Miranda was there to help us every step of the way! She made sure our day went fully as planned, that we were taken care of with food and drinks throughout the night and really helped us ensure that our day would be everything we dreamed of. I cannot thank her enough for helping us create a day that we will forever remember and will forever be grateful for!

Worsell Manor could not have been a more perfect vendor for us!

We were required to have a day-of coordinator, and were so happy we picked one of the staff members at Worsell: Ashlee. We stayed at the house on the property with our wedding party and it was perfect.

We got married a couple weekends ago and we have nothing but amazing things to say about everyone at Tomasello. Not only is it a beautiful venue (inside and out), the staff is what makes them stand out amongst the rest. Unfortunately a few days before our wedding we had a family emergency which made the logistics of everything a bit up in the air. Dana went above and beyond to ensure that we had everything we needed and that day of went smoothly. In addition, she assisted in the coordination of a wonderful day of surprise, set up everything so beautifully, and assisted later in the evening with another vendor. And Mac, our day of assistant, was AMAZING and was so attentive to us, and our families. Our day would not have gone as smoothly without the hard work from the entire staff who went above and beyond. We cannot wait to celebrate our anniversary there for years to come.

Founders Grove is one of the most unique and enchanting properties I’ve had the pleasure of visiting.

The blend of preserved history and modern renovation makes the space feel both meaningful and magical. I’ve attended several vendor meet-ups during the renovation process, and each time I leave more impressed. Watching this venue grow from its roots into something truly extraordinary has been inspiring. Founders Grove is on track to become a standout location for couples and events, and I can’t wait to see the final reveal in 2026. The bridal suite—located in the farmhouse—is absolutely magical and even gives you that perfect “something blue.”
