I wish I could give this venue 1000 stars. Truly an amazing and beautiful place to get married. From the day we first went to tour the venue until the day of the wedding, Edison was there to assist in any way we needed and to answer any and all questions. He genuinely cared about making our day the best it could be. On the day of the wedding, I did not have to think about anything other than having fun, as each and every detail of the day was handled professionally and efficiently by Edison and the staff. Additionally, the food at the country club is out of this world, and I have been receiving compliments about the phenomenal cocktail hour from every single guest. I cannot recommend this venue enough! Reviewed on 03-12-2023

1000/10 - Would recommend Maplewood Country Club to ANYONE hosting an upcoming event, especially a wedding! Working with Edison was truly a pleasure. He was, and still is, super responsive, helpful, and genuinely caring. From the moment we met, Edison showed my family and I how invested he is from start to finish of the wedding process, and even after the event has occurred, he still checks in to see how things are going. Edison helped my husband and I every step of the way and always kept on top with what needed to be done next. He gave us advice and suggestions that made our special day truly something magical. On the day of our wedding, April16, 2023, Edison and his team made sure every detail was EXACTLY as we had imagined it. The day flowed so smoothly, and he was such an essential part of that. Edison made sure we were all properly hydrated and fed, he ensured everything was how my husband and I wanted and truly did not disappoint! If I could suggest anything to future brides out there, this would be my first suggestion - hold your wedding at the Maplewood Country Club and you WILL NOT regret it! Reviewed on 07-05-2023
Ana Montoya(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-09-2022 We got married at Maplewood Country Club in September 2022 and it was hands down the best decision we made. In fact it was the 2nd venue we toured and right off the bat, we knew we had found the one. We really cared about serving our guests a wonderful meal and we received countless compliments about the quality of the food, which made us so happy to hear. Many friends and family told us this was the best wedding they ever went to and we credit the amazing staff, who made sure our day was absolutely perfect. BIG shoutout to Edison who went above and beyond to make our wedding day dreams come true. 100% recommend this venue! Reviewed on 21-12-2022
Suzanne Kuziola(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 21-08-2022 Our dream wedding came true at the Maplewood Country ClubAs soon as we met the Banquet Manager, Edison, and heard what the MCC had to offer and saw the newly renovated ballroom and all for an unbelievable price, we knew we found the right venue for our special day. Edison was “the best” from day one, he even came on his day off on Super Bowl Sunday to show us the venue since we were pressed for time to book a venue 6 months out. We read the reviews and it sounded too good to be true but let me assure you that it is all true. Edison and everyone that works at MCC is wonderful and friendly and helpful. Oh, and the FOOD was out of this world, as the bride I only wish I had found time to eat more during the cocktail hour. Our guests were amazed and overwhelmed over the amount of food and couldn’t believe there was still a dinner to come then desserts and white castles and hot dogs as they left. The staff was on top of everything and even had some fun with our guests, which the guests loved. They were very professional with pleasant personalities that attended to our guests’ dietary needs. There didn’t seem to be anything they couldn’t do to make us and our guests happy. Ours was a second wedding for both of us with about 80 guests including my young grandchildren. Edison made this bride very relaxed; he did not allow me to stress about anything and was so good moving things along without pressure. We could have not picked a better place to have our wedding. Our guests are still commenting on what a wonderful wedding and how outrageously good and plentiful the food was. Guests even noticed how well Edison was on top of everything. Not one complaint and only tons of great things were said about our wedding and MCC. Many guests said it was the best wedding they ever attended. Thank you, Edison, your staff, and MCC. You truly were a very big part of making our wedding day the best day ever for both of us. I still say I want to have a wedding all over again because it was that great at MCC. Reviewed on 07-11-2022
Jessica Greene(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 01-10-2022 If you are deciding whether to have your wedding at MCC, look no further! The staff at the club is unbelievable and Edison is the most magical human on this planet!! He is the calming source every bride needs during the planning process and on the wedding day!From our first meeting with Edison, he immediately made us feel at ease. No task was too small and no ask was too big. It truly makes a tremendous difference to be able to work with people you trust. Everything on our wedding day surpassed our expectations. There aren't enough 'thank you's' in the world to demonstrate our gratitude and appreciation for all of MCC's & Edison's contributions. Our guests are still talking about the food and venue and what a memorable event it was!!Edison ALWAYS looks out for the bride!! It really made me feel special and important (and full!). He is extremely professional, poised and gracious at all times. I appreciate him putting up with / being there for my mom and I from start to finish, being so patient with us, and putting up with our worried emails/texts, questions, indecisiveness and last-minute changes. The day was beautiful and glamorous and everything I had always dreamed of. Thank you Edison & the MCC team!! Reviewed on 13-10-2022
Risa M Klein(other)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 01-10-2022 My daughter just got married this past weekend and the entire club could not have been more helpful. Edison is simply the best and does everything he possibly can to make the event exactly as you picture. Honestly, the only thing he couldn't accomplish for us is to stop hurricane IAN. He surpasses every expectation, works incredibly hard and due to his nature, everyone on his staff is just awesome. The food and decor are not to be surpassed anywhere else. Reviewed on 12-10-2022

I come from a big italian family so a big priority for us was food and Maplewood came out on top! It was amazing. Not to mention the whole ballroom was just completely redone and was absolutely beautiful. Also, Edison who runs it is the absolute best. He was there every step of the day and made my husband, my family and friends all feel welcome and at home the whole entire time. It felt like he was a friend we've had forever.

Tara Lynch(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-10-2021 Getting married is no easy task by any means. We searched and searched for the perfect place to have our reception that would be able to offer everything we wanted for our day. Maplewood was everything we were looking for and then some! During the pandemic we had to make the unfortunate decision of delaying our wedding. Hearing nightmare stories in the news from couples facing similar fate had us all too worried. Eddie (Edison) not only helped us reserve a new date, he compassionately put our minds at ease every step of the way. Knowing that we would be able to have the wedding we always dreamed about had us beyond excited. When our date was approaching Eddie was beyond responsive to every single inquiry and request we threw at him. He was very detailed oriented and made himself available even in off hours and days off to make sure our day went perfectly. We’re still getting compliments and calls about the day! The cocktail hour was second to none, we had so many options and Eddie was even able to incorporate our family’s traditional cuisine into the offerings. The bar staff was quick and professional in serving 150+ guests. Dinner was a very balanced and impressive menu that was enjoyed across the board by all of our guests. To help close the night we had some fun stations on the way out for some late night food and desserts that were perfect after our party! We can’t thank Eddie and the rest of the staff at Maplewood for helping us weather the COVID storm and host a wedding that was better than we could even imagine. A hidden gem amongst a plethora of venues options in the northern New Jersey area that was simply 5 stars across the board! Reviewed on 17-11-2021
Veniza W.(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 24-10-2021 It's been three weeks since our wedding and we are still receiving calls from our guest raving about the great time they had at the wedding and it was the best wedding they ever attended. It was said there was an abundance/variety of dishes during the cocktail hour, was surprised there was more to come for dinner and after the wedding. Not just an overwhelming about of dishes but very, very tasty! My husband and I attended a wedding at the Maplewood CC in 2017. We were dating at the time but I knew if were to marry, it would be here. We had a great time at that wedding. Fast forward, we got in engaged in 2019 and I immediately contacted Edison. He was so accommodating and easy to work with. We selected a wedding date for March 2020. However, COVID-19 pandemic hit and we had to postpone the wedding. Edison was so patient with me as I was freaking out and postponed the date three times. Finally had our wedding on March 24, 2021. Edison held my hand throughout the pandemic, took all my phone calls and put me at easy. On the wedding day, he caterered to me from the beginning of our long day to the very end and beyond. Edison was very accommodating to all my guest and made sure eveyone was well taken care of. We had an awesome, amazing and unforgettable wedding! Thank you Maplewood CC and Edison, you are the best!

After attending a wedding at Maplewood Country, my now husband and I knew this was where we wanted to get married when the time came. Edison is an absolute gem, so attentive and always willing to go the extra mile to help bring your wedding vision to life. His confident, relaxed energy definitely eased any wedding nerves we had. We got married two months ago and our family and friends are still gushing about “the best party” ever. The food was phenomenal (and plentiful), the entire staff was so professional and easy to work with, and the venue itself is stunning (seriously, look at photos of the ballroom). We keep saying that we hope another couple we know gets married here just so we can go back one more time. Thank you Maplewood and THANK YOU Edison for making our wedding day perfect.

Jordana Geller(parent)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-11-2020 “MMMM” = Magnificent, Marvelous, Miraculous Maplewood If you’re reading this review and trying to decide between Maplewood and another venue for your wedding or the wedding of a loved one, your decision should be easy: MMMM = Magnificent, Marvelous, Miraculous Maplewood.My older daughter got married there a few years ago and guests just couldn’t stop talking about the beauty of the venue, the quality and quantity of the food, and the amazing service.We knew we had found a gem. But my younger daughter’s wedding was a bit challenging. It was initially scheduled for May 2020 and then delayed until November 2020. You may be familiar with something called COVID and all the restrictions, cautions, and fear that was prevalent. We were very cognizant of the virus and while we decided not to delay the wedding indefinitely, we really wanted to keep our small group safe and comfortable (both physically and emotionally) while giving my daughter and her husband a special night to remember.That’s the miraculous part of Maplewood, Michael, and Edison. They helped us throw an 18-person wedding that was incredible. Despite the difficulties that COVID presented us with, we had a blast. Edison is nothing short of phenomenal. He is calm, funny, and truly wants to make the bride and groom happy. Nothing is impossible, and he will customize, change, or add in just about anything you can think of at a very reasonable price.That’s the magnificent and marvelous part. We had the most wonderful time, and while I hope none of you have to throw a wedding in challenging times, there’s something to be said for the small wedding with a core group. Regardless of the size, be it 10 or 200 people, Maplewood rocks. Thank you, Michael and Edison and the entire Maplewood staff. Reviewed on 09-11-2020
Justin Morgenstern(groom)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 23-11-2019 Edison and Maplewood Country Club did everything they could and more to make our wedding a night we would never forget. From the get-go MCC made us feel special and listened to our wants and desires rather than tell us \"how things are done.\" The entire venue bent over backwards to make every little detail happen as we had hoped. When planning a wedding there is a bit of hope that everything works out the way you planned and due to Edison and MCC, everything blew our expectations out of the water. The night ran smoothly and all guests were taken care of. More than two months later our guests are still talking about the venue and the food. If you want value for your dollar and to make sure all your guests leave satisfied, go with MCC. It is a gorgeous venue with a built in staff that acts just like a wedding planner.

Warren Butler(groom)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-12-2019 Great venue, service & food steps away from NYCAs residents of South Orange, we selected Maplewood Country Club so family and friends near and far could see where we get to call home. An easy train ride from NYC, guests were able to make a full weekend out of our big day. We worked closely with Edison, his team and our vendors to bring our vision to life. Our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception were all held throughout the venue and all were executed flawlessly for 220 guests.The partnerships they have with local vendors, including our day-of planner, florist, band, hotel and transportation were incredibly valuable. Edison and our planner were able to closely collaborate to keep all parties in-sync without skipping a beat throughout the night. The club ensured all of our \"must-haves\" would be accommodated; from the over abundance of food, to the golf cart for photos outside on the course, to allowing one incredibly excited boxer dog inside for just the ceremony, we could not have been more pleased with the outcome.We cannot thank the club enough for welcoming us in and pulling out all the stops to make our night so special. We are lucky to call the club our neighbor. Reviewed on 27-01-2020
Alex Miller(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 26-05-2019 We cannot say enough great things about Maplewood Country Club (MCC). In fact, I don’t have any complaints! Not one! I had attended events at MCC in the past and for a long time, it was number one on my list for wedding venues. So about a week after becoming engaged, we went to visit MCC. This is when we met Edison who has become one of my favorite people! Edison is a super hero! He made the entire planning process seamless! He had an answer for every single question and almost never said “no” to my many requests. Here are some other things we loved about MCC besides Edison. The food is amazing. All of our guests told us it was the best wedding food they ever had. Next, it was beautiful and home-y at the same time. I loved the feeling of being in an elegant living room for the cocktail hour. The reception room was perfect. I used vendors familiar with the venue and everyone was able to coordinate so well. There was nothing for me to worry about. I got ready in the bridal suite with my large bridal party and Edison made sure we were fed all day. Mimosas too! We were able to arrive at the venue as early as we wanted. Edison also made sure we ate plenty of cocktail hour food which he brought up to the bridal suite at the beginning of the cocktail hour. We also were able to eat during the reception. Edison’s suggestion that we have our own sweetheart table definitely made it easier to eat. Of course, we could have had the tables however we wanted as MCC is so accommodating. One thing I was most excited for was the ice cream freezer during dessert. Of course, there was formal dessert, wedding cake, pastries, etc. but we also had an ice cream freezer with haagen daz cups, choco tacos, etc. As if that wasn’t enough, they also gave out white castle burgers, fries, onion rings and hot dogs on everyone’s way out. I am not exaggerating about everyone’s reaction to the food… everyone thought it was the absolute best! The price was also a lot more reasonable than other venues. All in, I would rate MCC and Edison a perfect 10! Reviewed on 16-09-2019
Grant Moryan(groom)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-08-2019 Maplewood Country Club – Where Dreams Come TrueWhere to start? Everything about our experience with Maplewood Country Club was spectacular. This was the last venue we visited on our tour and was head-and-shoulders above all others we saw. Nothing compared and when the date we wanted was available, we jumped and signed up to have MCC host our wedding. The banquet manager, Edison, has worked at Maplewood for over a decade and has this “wedding thing” down to a perfect science. He was extremely accommodating and very responsive via text message—he quickly answered any questions we had throughout the planning process. He helped alleviate any concerns we might have had leading up to our big day and he made us feel very welcome and like family—we were in great hands.Edison and his team are simply superb—second to none. We cannot say enough good things about them. The wait staff and bartenders were attentive but not overbearing—they took great care of our and our guests’ every need. Words cannot express our gratitude to Edison, his team, and everyone at Maplewood Country Club. They were all also very accommodating—the club even let us practice our first dance on the dance floor a couple weeks prior to our wedding so we could get a feel for space.THE FOOD was one of the major highlights of the wedding. Our guests could not believe the amount of food at the cocktail hour—rave reviews from everyone as they tried to try a little bit of everything. The big hits were the sushi bar, caviar station/vodka ice luge (yes, you read that correctly), rack of lamb, and bar pizza. Dinner and dessert were also amazing—the cake from Swiss Pastry Shoppe in Scotch Plains was very tasty and they were able to bake the exact sponge/filling combo we desired. As if that wasn’t enough, Edison also catered the after-party with everyone’s late-night favorites (sliders, hot dogs, ice cream, etc.). Our guests could not believe they were so well fed and watered—everyone was thanking my wife and I for hosting an amazing wedding and it is not an overstatement when I say that all of the amazingness was because of Edison and his team at Maplewood.We HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND Maplewood Country Club for your wedding venue. You should contact Edison as soon as possible to book your wedding at Maplewood—you will be very glad you did (your guests will be happy too)! Reviewed on 27-08-2019

MCC is not like any other venues in that you do not have to make any choices about food and you do not have to pay more for the good stuff. When we went to our \"tasting\" we went through the menu and were told we were getting it all unless there was anything we didn't like or that we were allergic to. We couldn't believe it. Besides the food (which did I say was amazing?), the venue is also stunning. We took beautiful photos out on the golf course and at the venue. The ballroom had a huge dance floor, a stunning antique chandelier, and beautiful classic architecture. The service was top notch. Our guests commented on how their drinks were never empty. As a result, there was never over crowding at the bars. MCC thinks of everything and the night ran so smoothly.

Jessica Chelder(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-04-2018 Maplewood Country Club was the best decision we made for our wedding. It was the first place my now husband and I looked at when searching for venues and we walked out of there with a signed contract. No need to look anywhere else. Edison is amazing and has event planning down to a science. The country club is warm and has so much character. The ballroom is beautiful with two beautiful chandeliers. We had our ceremony there as well and they used the ballroom and then flipped it during cocktail hour for our reception. You wouldn’t even know it was the same room. There was SO MUCH FOOD. And it was delicious. Every guest (and vendor) said it was the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding. From the cocktail hour to dinner, dessert and hot dog stand/White Castle at the end of the party, none of your guests will go home hungry. The staff were attentive, helpful and beyond polite. My bridal party got ready in the suite and they provided breakfast and lunch for us as well as champagne. When my flowers did not show up on time, Edison was the one calling the vendor to see where they were. Everything ran smoothly and Edison was there making sure it stayed that way. I was a stress-free bride at Maplewood Country Club and would recommend this place to anyone and everyone. Reviewed on 17-04-2018

Our reception was on 9/22/17 and people are still commenting on how awesome our wedding was. The venue is beautiful. It has a unique home like feel from the entry way, to the living room, to the bar area and then onto the deck with views of the golfcourse course. The rooms are updated and flowed nicely together. There was ample space for our guests to hang out. The main ballroom was elegant and had plenty of room for our 150 guests. The food selection and quality are unmatched. There are two kitchens on site and they go above and beyond with taste and presentation. That's truly what our guests can't stop talking about. But best of all is the manager Edison. He's intelligent, kind and organized. He made planning so easy and stress free. He answered all of our questions and provided his opinion and advice which were all very helpful.

From the wine to the amazing 5 star entrees and the delicious desserts - we were so impressed. Our cocktail hour was insane and everyone is still talking about the amazing entrees and white castle and little treats to end the night.

From the food to the service, everything was impeccable. The food here is definitely several notches above what other weddings serve (bland frozen/fried food etc), and fit for a high end restaurant. People were blown away by the cocktail hour, the rack of lamb was especially impressive as I recall. We also had the vodka luge/sushi bar which were huge hits with our guests. Our guests are still raving about the food and what an awesome time it was. Dance floor is really spacious and the main ballroom looks gorgeous when lit up. The white castles/hot dogs at the end especially impressed people, and was a unique touch -- most places will not go to such ends to take care of your guests.

Since our October 1st wedding, guests of ours have reached out to let us know it was one of the best weddings they have ever attended. The cocktail hour was tremendous and the food options were not only the best quality but also the best variety. The ballroom was absolutely stunning and everyone loved that they could take advantage of the outdoor terrace. We had both our ceremony and reception at Maplewood, and it is one of the best choices my husband and I made to have the most beautiful, fun filled and seamlessly run wedding day imaginable. The behind the scenes and the show was run by Edison and he truly surpassed every expectation and every wish we had. He helped us take care of even the little details we were uncertain about - the uplighting, the house microphone, the cake, little details for the ceremony. There was not one thing that he didn't help make easy and smooth for us. I cannot recommend MCC enough. If you want an elegant and beautiful venue that has the best service and best food, then visit MCC.

Every aspect of the night was accounted for. Edison worked with me to make the event special for us and was open to anything and everything I brought to the table.

The country club is beautiful inside and out, and is much more unique and elegant than a typical wedding ballroom. The outside grounds are perfect for photo opportunities. The food is AMAZING!! Literally, the amount of food they will serve is incredible and it all tastes DELICIOUS! Our guests would not (and still will not) stop raving about how great the food was and how perfect the venue was. Truly, if you are thinking about seeing Maplewood, just go there in person, and meet with Weisser Millien, the assistant general manager. You will fall in love with him, just like I did. It is impossible not to. He will begin to list all of the food choices and options they will provide and you won't really believe it. You can email me hundreds of silly questions throughout the planning process and he will get back to you and really give you 'it's your day, it's your choice!' support. And then, on the day of your wedding, he will deliver exactly what he promised (and probably a little bit more) and you will love him even more!

It was absolutely everything we could have hoped for and I know it was because of Weisser behind the scenes making sure every single detail was perfect. I also need to give a special shout out to Maria who was our server on our wedding day and gave me every single course and re-filled my drink multiple times even though I was having way too much fun to eat or drink anything! And also, Evanese, who helped us from 10am in the bridal suite making sure we had all of the food and drinks we needed on the wedding day and who set up the placecards, photos, etc to make sure the details were all set up according to my vision.

The staff were incredible from the moment we met them...they were professional, friendly, and worked very hard. Our guests told us multiple times how wonderful they were. But the real star was Weisser Millien...many say weddings are stressful but my husband and I didn't feel any of that. Weisser handled anything we needed and made it all look so easy...although we suspect it wasn't. He made us and our parents feel special the day we met him, even before we had given a deposit and it never stopped. Weisser has been doing this forever and it shows with his flawlessness. The food is insane as well and we were told by numerous people it was the best food they ever had at a wedding! You definitely don't leave hungry either. From amazing apps at the cocktail hour to a delicious dinner to way more dessert then you can imagine, the food keeps on coming.

The first time we walked into Maplewood, we knew it was the perfect place. We had looked at so many NJ venues, and most feel like wedding factories. What really sold us, though, wasn't the beautiful grounds, the incredible ballroom, or the amazing food- it was the general manager, Weisser. He was such a professional, and took us through all of the details with so much ease and enthusiasm. After speaking with him, we booked right away. \r\rLeading up to the wedding, Weisser was easy to connect with, and so patient with all of my questions- and always knew the exact right answer. About a month before the wedding, we had a food tasting that was to die for. Our families were so impressed, and Weisser took the time to plan the whole menu with us and describe every dish. On the day of the wedding, my bridal party and I got ready in the bridal suite, and Weisser made sure we had plenty of food and drinks. Maplewood only has one event at a time, and you can really tell that you and your guests are the sole focus that day. All of the decor looked amazing, and our guests have not stopped raving about the food- the cocktail hour had stations and stations of food, passed hors d'oeuvres, caviar, and fresh pizza at the bar! Our signature drinks were perfect... and then there was dinner, the wedding cake, passed desserts, AND white castle burgers/fries at the end of the night! Weisser even remembered our request to have s'mores outside by the fire pits. Every single thing was so delicious, and multiple people have told us it was the best food they've had at a wedding.

The ceremony was beautiful and the room looked amazing. Weisser Millien (assistant manager/coordinator extraordinaire) was there every step of the way to be certain there wasn't one glitch. From providing food and drink to the bridesmaids in the bridal suite, to hiding the bride from the early arrivals, he was amazing! The cocktail hour was awesome with many stations and passed hors d'oeuvres as well. All our guests commented on how delicious it was. Dinner (filet mignon, sea bass, or stuffed chicken breast) was incredible. Who would think 186 dinners could be that perfect?!

The cocktail hour at the Maplewood was over the top with each of the seven stations surpassing the next plus passed hor d’ourves. This was followed by an amazing presentation of salad, intermezzo, three of the most incredible main course options and for dessert our guest received at their seats wedding cake plus an apple strudel dessert, chocolate covered berries and cookies. For those guests who didn’t want to leave the dance floor – no problem, even more bite sized desserts were served butler style to them while they danced the night away. At the end of the night – to help with any potential hang over or late night cravings – guest could take home hot dogs and bottles of water. Did I mention that the food was out of this world?! My uncle joked this past weekend that he only recently starting eating again because there was enough food at the wedding to last him a year. \r\rI cannot say enough great things about the Maplewood Country Club.

Michael Lusk and Weisser are so incredibly accommodating and can literally make anything happen. What they offered was so much more than I would have expected! The other 2 venues that we looked at were ok, but didn't seem personal. From the moment you walk in to MCC they treat you like family. The night of the wedding was perfect. Weisser was there every step of the way to fix my dress, grab by bouquet, wipe off my husband's forehead and when it came time to cut the cake he magically showed up with my husband's suit jacket and seamlessly helped us through. I can not say enough about MCC. There was not one flaw throughout the night and if there was, Weisser took care of it before I could even notice. I would recommend MCC to everyone.

Additionally, it was my mother-in-laws birthday. After we cut our wedding cake, a special birthday cake was brought out and all of our guests sang Happy Birthday. Our guests RAVED about the food (both quality and quantity) all night long. The food was ridiculous - beyond amazing. There was so many choices everywhere and people couldn't believe how delicious it was. \rI am so grateful to Weisser and his staff at Maplewood Country Club for the stellar service, food, and all-over professionalism during the entire planning process and execution of my wedding.\rI want to be a guest at an event here so that I can eat more of the delicious food!

Olivia Bonner(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-10-2014 I had my wedding at the Maplewood Country Club on Friday, October 10th and it was absolutely perfect. Weisser and his very attentive and caring team made sure we had our dream wedding. Everything went off without a hitch. From the moment we first met Weisser when we were looking for venues, we felt at ease and like we would be well taken care of. We came in for dinner a month before the wedding and got a preview of the food that would be served at the wedding. I had heard rumblings that the Country Club's food was really good, but it surpassed ALL my expectations. It was simply divine and there was no shortage of food. Everyone says you don't get to eat much at your own wedding, which was definitely true in our case and that's our only regret! I would have eaten more if I could! The pasta station during cocktail hour was a big hit and the lamb chops at the carving station during our dinner was second to none! The memory of the succulent lamb chops will live in my memory forever! EVERYONE was raving about the food. \r\rI looked around online for venues before visiting the Maplewood Country Club, but this was the first venue we actually visited and it was love at first site. The decor is tasteful and modern without being overpowering - allowing us to add our own touches easily. We feel we got a great value - as our price per head covered use of the club (along with linens, glasses, etc), the open bar (all top shelf liquor), cocktail hour, dinner, cake AND dessert tables, which included a flambe station!! Weisser was beyond accommodating and helped us coordinate the signature cocktails we featured (which were a big hit and truly delicious). He gave great suggestions on table coordination, outside vendors and more.\r\rAnother highlight was the outdoor terrace with lit firepits with comfy chairs around it. The guests really loved sitting out there throughout the night. It really set the tone for the kind of atmosphere we wanted - a warm celebration for our closest family and friends. Our party included only 65 guests, so Weisser worked with the space to make it feel intimate and not empty. \r\rI only wish the night didn't go by so fast, but I know it's the mark of a truly great wedding!! I'm pretty sure I will find any excuse in the coming years to host another event here. Your search for a wedding venue should start and end here. Maplewood Country Club is simply the best. \r Reviewed on 21-10-2014
Lauren Anderson(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 12-07-2014 My husband and I had our reception at the Maplewood Country Club in July 2014 and we cannot be more thrilled that we chose this venue! Unlike many venues in New Jersey, the price is fair – especially for all that you get in return. Within five minutes of meeting Weisser, we knew that we found exactly what we were looking for and more! It was the best decision we could have made. \r\rOur wedding day was absolutely perfect from start to finish, thanks to Weisser and all of the other wonderful staff members of the MCC. Boy do they know how to throw a special and unforgettable event! Weisser will make sure every detail is right and that the party runs seamlessly. He truly makes you feel like royalty and treats you like family. \r\rOur guests were absolutely blown away by the quantity and quality of the food throughout the night. The cocktail hour was truly incredible! I think our guests would have been satisfied if all we offered was the cocktail hour food, but that was just the beginning! The main course was excellent, too - all three dishes were cooked to perfection (especially the bone-in filet). The deserts were plentiful and delicious. To top it all off, White Castle burgers and bottled water were served to our guests on their way out. This was, of course, a tremendous hit! \r\rThe country club itself is absolutely beautiful. The grounds are stunning and the interior is tastefully and elegantly decorated. A perfect backdrop for a magical wedding day!\r\rCountless friends and family members continue to tell us that it was the best wedding they have ever been to! We highly recommend choosing the Maplewood Country Club for your wedding venue. You will not be disappointed.

Aileen finnegan(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 31-08-2014 My hubby and I got married over Labor Day weekend August 31, 2014, and it truly was the most amazing experience. I have been a bridesmaid in six weddings and have been brought the planning process with all the girls, so I knew exactly what I wanted and had very particular boxes to check when looking for a wedding venue. The main ones being:\r-Onsite ceremony\r-One venue at a time\r-Windows\r-Outdoor space\r-Large cocktail hour space\r\rWe were recommended MCC by my cousin who attended a wedding there. He was like it was awesome and the food was amazing. So we added it to our list and started the grand tour. MCC was the last venue we visited and the second we walked in we were introduced to Weisser. With the biggest smile on his face and dapper as ever, he welcomed us so warmly. He gave us the tour and I started to check my boxes and get a good feeling. Then we got down to business, we started discussing the menu and it seemed too good to be true. My husband saw a tray of desserts go by for a small party they were having and Weisser immediately went to the kitchen and got us 3 to enjoy. We left that day and my husband was ready to put down our deposit but being the over thinker I was I had to go home and fill out my excel sheet and think about it. It didn't take much time and next Monday we called and put down our deposit and it was history. \r\rThroughout the year of planning I communicated with Weisser a lot, he always got back to mean a somewhat timely manner. We ended up renting lucite chairs and Weisser arranged a deal and the order for us. \r\rThat day I had provided Weisser with a lot of things that had to be put out and prepared, I was super into details (made custom pillow cases and pillows for the lounge, kind of details). He took care of each of them, and executed to perfection.\r\rEverything went so smoothly, he wrangled a 18 person wedding party and I didn't worry about thing. He coordinated with the florist and band and took care off all our vendors as if they were guests. \r\rLast, the food. I don' t have to say much because it's simply delicious. There is a large variety but it's so tastefully done. My guests were in awe of the quality and service. I was so happy with the food, and I know because I ate! Weissers crew made sure we had food in our suites and extra cocktail food at our sweet heart table, since he knew I loved it so much. My mom said all her girlfriends called to rave about the quality of the venue and place, it made my mom proud to have thrown such a great event.\r\rI honestly could go on and on. All I can say is if you want a quality wedding and feel good about spending that quantity of money (very competitively priced with venues in northern NJ) and be taken care of by wonderful people, Maplewood Country Club is a perfect worry free choice.

Weisser was very patient and easy to work with (although there were times when I had to follow up my emails with phone calls; but that might be more reflective of my neuroticism than Weisser's follow through).\r\rI don't know where to begin my praise. The venue itself was clean and beautiful. The upstairs room, the bathrooms, the main hall, etc. was obviously very lovingly cared for. We were allowed to visit several times to take photos and do walk throughs before the day of. On the day of, since there is only 1 wedding per day (a big plus for us), Weisser and the MCC staff were very attentive and helpful. From the ample parking lot to inside the venue to the golf course greens, not a detail was out of place. Our photos prove it!\r\rAnd the food! I could write novels about the food and how amazingly delicious it was. Our guests thought that the cocktail hour was dinner! There was just so much variety and all of it delicious. Most venues have yummy cocktail hour food and then terrible dinner meals, but not MCC. The sea bass, steak, etc. were perfectly cooked. But the best part was the perks. MCC staff brought out mini ice cream cones on the dance floor, there was a very large array of desserts, and then when guests were leaving around midnight, there was a White Castle station and a hot dog cart. It was really just the wedding of our dreams (that includes my dream, my sister's dreams, and all of our guests' dreams)!\r\rI would recommend EVERYONE to go with MCC.

Jessika Vasquez(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-05-2014 I do not even know where to begin and know this will be a little long but worth reading for any couple looking to get married. Our experience, start to finish, at Maplewood Country Club was a dream come true. EVERY detail was considered when preparing. We couldn't have been happier. On our first visit I knew 100% that this was the place. We saw about 10-15 different venues but none could compare with Maplewood in the end. The helpfulness of the staff was remarkable - The GM, Mike Lusk, Asst. GM Wessier and the whole team you are truly amazing. Everyone that I worked with was friendly and very accommodating. We had around 300 guests with a mix of Italian/American + Puerto Rican/ Colombian family. Not one person was without a drink or food in hand. The quality and quantity of the food was no doubt the best around. All of our friends and family couldnt stop talking about the food for weeks after the wedding. Another highlight beside the amazing food and drinks was our wedding cake. I do not know how but between 3 pictures I sent they created a masterpiece which I loved.

Alyssa Sunkin(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 03-08-2014 Our wedding was absolutely perfect, thanks to Weisser Millien, the assistant general manager at Maplewood Country Club, and the rest of his amazing staff. From the very beginning of the planning process, Weisser made us feel at home and made the initial choice to book with Maplewood an easy one. He was accommodating from the start, and his energy and effervescent personality alone set Maplewood above all the others we visited. \r\rThroughout the planning process, Weisser was in touch constantly, always prompt with responses and put us at ease during an exciting yet stressful time. Any possible wrench that could get thrown into the works was met with his trademark smile and “That’s not a problem!” Vegetarians? Vegans? Gluten sensitivity? Dairy allergy? Kosher? Complicated family dynamics? We had a little bit of everything, and everything worked out seamlessly, without a hitch.\r\rThe food was spectacular, going so far beyond the standard chicken, prime rib and salmon. Everything we tasted — hors d’oeuvres during the cocktail hour, dinner entrees, not to mention the plethora of desserts — was beyond delicious and our guests can’t stop raving about it. We just hope one of our friends or family members follows suit so we can enjoy all the food that we were too busy to partake in (but not to worry, fellow busy brides; Weisser will grab a plate of all the greatest stuff you missed out on and have it ready for you at your dinner table).\r\rSet on a golf course with a magnificent vista, Maplewood Country Club is down to earth with an understated elegance that is just perfect. The ballroom is magnificent, with high ceilings, a gorgeous chandelier and an intimate charm unlike any other we’ve seen. There are so many reasons to get married at Maplewood Country Club, but one of the biggest is that unlike numerous other venues, the country club only entertains one wedding at a time. We had Weisser’s and his staff’s full attention the entire day, and weren’t whisked away at the end of our wedding so they could prepare for the next one — a ubiquitous trademark of wedding factories. We were just blown away by how breathtakingly beautiful every aspect of our wedding was. It’s a month later and our guests are still showering us with compliments, even going as far to say that ours was the best wedding they have ever attended.

It was an amazing experience and beyond what I could have imagined.

When I walked in the Maplewood, I knew immediately that we would have our reception here. We were looking for a classy place that wasn’t too “Jersey” and that would be able to hold our 200+ guest list. After we booked, we worked with Weisser (the event manager) for more than a year to plan this day! He was a pleasure to work with and catered to our EVERY need. And as a type A person myself, there were a lot of needs all packaged into checklists over several emails. Every time we reached out to Weisser and/or met at the Club, we were treated as if we’d been members for years. The cake tasting experience was probably my favorite part! It also helped that this was a one-stop-shop – everything was included, no upselling (the cake, up-lighting, ice vodka luge, everything!)\r\rOn the day of the wedding, we did not stop hearing from people how amazing the food, drinks (including our signature drink) and service was. I think people thought that the cocktail hour was the “wow” factor, until they were served dinner, followed by ice cream pops on the dance floor, followed by a hotdog stand on the way out. It was surprise after surprise. And everything Weisser had promised us, was there and then some! \r\rIf you are looking to have a classy wedding that continues to impress you and your guests as the night goes on, the Maplewood Country Club is where you need to be.

Having our at Maplewood Country Club was the best decision we could have made. Everything just included in the package for one price - ladder back chairs, up lighting, and all the food stations at cocktail hour, full open bar, etc. The food was delicious and I was amazed at how much was there. We have older relatives who are pretty picky when it comes to food and all of them were blown away. Many commented how they were very surprised how each table had their own waiter. This was a touch I didn't even know about until after the big day. Now weeks later, we are still getting comments about how much food we had and how GOOD it was. While MCC exceeds expectations in all areas, the food is truly amazing. \r\rWeisser was great to work with and made sure everything went smoothly. He is great at what he does and you will not be disappointed if you leave him in charge of running the biggest night of your life! \r\rI would not hesitate to recommend the MCC to anyone.

After the wedding both of our parents were getting calls and emails from our guests saying how ours was the best wedding they've ever been to (I even just got back from our honeymoon and got comments at work this morning!). The food was phenomenal and just kept coming! People must have thought we spent a fortune because of how much food there was, but it's a set price and you get EVERYTHING... This wasn't a wedding factory where you had to pick from a list and pay extra for a different colored tablecloth. Our guests were even commenting on how nice and attentive the wait staff were. One of my elderly guests wasn't feeling that well to eat and they packaged her food up to take home! The only negative was sometimes when I asked how some things could be set up differently (eg. where the sweetheart table or cake was located), I was told that's where it belonged... But I think they were probably correct in the end or it didn't really matter on those points anyway so I shouldn't have been worrying. Thanks for making our day wonderful! Reviewed on 19-06-2014

It was a long process as we were looking for the perfect balance of venue, food and quality of service. We had initially chosen another venue in NJ by the water with a beautiful view of the Manhattan skyline but after visiting the MCC seeing the immaculate grounds, the clubhouse, the beautiful banquet hall and speaking with Weisser we just knew this was the perfect venue for us and our 160+ guests.\r\rOur wedding was held on Saturday April 13, 2013 at a Church with our reception at 6:30 at the Maplewood Country Club. Thankfully the weather was great and we were able to take beautiful photos with our bridal party on the grounds before going into the clubhouse for cocktail hour. There was so much food at the cocktail hour that many of our guests thought it was dinner! We had American, Italian, Portuguese, and Chinese cuisines, carving stations, and the alcohol was flowing. The staff had decorated the venue beautifully and had even accommodated several of our guests who had arrived before our reception started to drinks and snacks (its the little things that most people don't think about but go a long way, most other venues will make your guests wait).\r\rDinner was absolutely amazing, if you're considering having your reception here be sure to put the Chilean Sea Bass on the menu! I was a skeptic at first, as many venues claim they make great sea bass and few actually do but it was absolutely the best tasting sea bass I've ever had. The staff made sure everything went smoothly throughout the night, they were extremely professional, polished and responsive to all our guests. Kudos to our DJ, Elite Rhythms Entertainment for keeping the party rocking. You know you had a good wedding party if the lights come on at the end of the night and most of your guests are still there!\r\rAt the end of the night our guests were treated with ice cream, hot dogs and burgers from White Castle on their way out the door.

He is attentive, extremely accommodating and has a staff that is so friendly and warm that you feel like you’re in someone’s home. \rBeing an event planner, I have high expectations and pay a great deal of attention to the details - Weisser and his staff got everything right. \rLast but certainly not least, I come from an Italian family where food is the most important part of any event or holiday. I can say that the food at MCC was the best I've ever had - 5 stars! Our guests are still talking about not only the dinner but the amazing cocktail hour and hot dog cart at the end of the evening! \rI hope that anyone reading this makes a trip to the club to see what they have to offer. I promise your wedding will be unforgettable if you go with Maplewood Country Club. \r Reviewed on 13-05-2013
Nicole Campbell(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 20-01-2012 I had the most amazing experience with this venue and the people!.....I don't even know where to start.\r\rMy husband and I visited six different venues in one weekend and by that following Monday, we decided on The Maplewood Country Club. The place itself was so elegant and meeting Weisser was such a great experience that we settled on our decision a day later.\r\rPlanning a wedding can be extremely stressful as most brides know, but I had a personal circumstance in which I had to plan a wedding in three months. Weisser took all the venue stress away from us, and had an awesome personality and great sense of humor. The owner Mike is a great guy too. We met him as well. Mike and Weisser made us feel so comfortable like we were old friends.\r\rThe day of the wedding was as smooth as could be. We did the ceremony there, and had some very young nephews as guests that started to get fussy and cry. I heard them stop soon after. I later found out from my mom that Weisser had come in and gave my nephew an ice cream cone so he would not cry anymore while we were saying our vows. How cool is that?!?!\r\rAnyway, I could go on and on, but the reason I am writing this review is because they thoroughly impressed me. I tend to not write reviews, but my husband and I went from, lets just get married in Vegas since we are not planners or wedding people, to oh my god, we are so glad we did it this way. My guests are still talking about how it was the BEST wedding they have ever been to. And did I mention I'm a foodie? Another reason I decided on this place. I heard they had the best food hands down, and this was coming from a chef that is employed somewhere else. He attended another wedding at the Maplewood Country Club and said their bone-in Filet was the best he ever had. We added that to our package and I'm still hearing about it to this day from my family and friends.\r\rObviously, this was the best day of our lives, but the MCC made it 100 times better:) Reviewed on 02-05-2013
D Perez(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 12-10-2012 More than two months after our wedding, people are STILL talking about what a fabulous event it was! The food was amazing, the staff went above and beyond for us and our guests and every single person left impressed. \r\rWeisser, the event manager, worked with all of our vendors and made sure everything went seamlessly. He even let us use a golf cart for our pictures which resulted in some stunning pictures on the golf course.\r\rThe whole day was relaxed and easy- everything went off without a hitch. I would definitely recommend Maplewood Country Club for anyone looking for a beautiful venue with fantastic food and service that your guests will be talking about for months. Reviewed on 28-12-2012
Amy Sherman(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 29-09-2012 Maplewood Country Club made my wedding day seamless and perfect. The day and evening moved along smoothly with the help of the incredible staff. The club has been renovated in the past year so the decor is gorgeous. Most importantly, the food was the hit of the evening. All of the guests could not stop raving out the incredible food! I would recommend this venue with my highest regard! Reviewed on 28-11-2012
Gillian Syracuse(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 19-05-2012 I had my Wedding reception at Maplewood Country Club in May of this year and now almost 6 months later, our guests and family are still raving about the food and service! \r\rWe chose MCC after looking at several reception halls and other country clubs in NJ. Some just felt too stuffy or had confusing packages. As soon as we walked into MCC, we felt comfortable and excited, knowing that Weisser, and his crew, would handle everything. He's been there for over a decade, so organizing and throwing a fantastic party, comes second nature. \r\rI didn't have a wedding planned and am not the most organized, but he answered all my emails very quickly and when it came to the Wedding Day, he was there helping me and my husband be wherever we needed to be from the pictures, introductions, dinner, toasts, cake and more. \r\rI highly recommend Maplewood Country Club.. and the food really is delicious!

Brittany Stone(parent)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 25-08-2012 I heard about the Maplewood Country Club from two different sources when planning my daughter's wedding. After meeting with Weisser, the Catering Asstistant Manager, I decided to book this venue based on an over all good feeling that I had after touring the facility. I'm glad I followed my instincts because the event, which took place on 25, August 2012, was an absolute stand out. Here is my advice to any guest that may be attending a party here consisting of two different approaches. First, consider a crash diet for a week prior to the party to prepare for all of the delicacies that will be tempting you such as lamb chop carving stations, lobster, oyster, sushi and caviar bars to name a few. The second method of preparation might be stuffing yourself and stretching your stomach for a week before the event so that you could easily consume every tasting offered throughout the evening. Not only is the food superb, but the service and atmosphere will not disappoint even the most discerning consumer. If you want a classy, warm and outstanding event, book this venue. I'm glad I did. Kudos to Weisser and the entire staff. I hope that one day I am lucky enough to return as a guest at someone else's wedding so I can have this experience again.\r Reviewed on 21-10-2012
Mary Uzzolino(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 21-10-2011 My husband and I had actually had our rehearsal dinner AND wedding at the Maplewood Country Club in October 2011. Words cannot describe how perfect our wedding was...and the Maplewood Country Club had EVERYTHING to do with it! They were so accommodating and over the top helpful. If we had ANY request, Michael and Weisser were eager to fulfill it. They really know everything there is to know about weddings and entertaining! And don't even get me started on the food! Our family and friends are still raving about it! It was over the top delicious and there was so much of it! Food pretty much everywhere you turned. At one point, I guess the sushi chef saw that I wasn't able to eat much (brides and grooms will understand this), so he made me a plate and had it delivered to me way on the other side of the room. I ate the entire plate of sushi and much more! Seriously, if you are looking for the PERFECT ambiance, amazing food, and amazing people to work with...look no further! The Maplewood Country Club is as good as it gets! Thats why my in-laws threw our rehearsal dinner there, too! Nothing compares to the level of quality & class the Maplewood Country Club delivers. It is hands down the best place in NJ to get married. Book it now (and invite me, too!) :) Reviewed on 19-10-2012

tracy tyson(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 02-06-2012 My husband and I held our wedding reception at the Maplewood Country Club, and it was hands down, the best wedding I've ever been to (I'm not biased - all the guests are still talking about it too!) the cocktail hour was AMAZING, there was so much food, people thought it was a buffet dinner. They were shocked when they got led into the gorgeous ballroom for even more food (bone-in filet!). Weisser (the GM) was a superstar, he made sure that everything went as smooth as possible, and it did. Small details like, every table having their own waitress went a long way. Anything your heart desired, the club made sure that it happened. It had been recently renovated, it was so cozy, yet elegant. The back deck was open during cocktail hour/dinner which was great too!

Laurie Larson(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 22-09-2012 If you are getting married in NJ, you must check out this venue. I can’t speak highly enough about the ambiance, beauty of the facility, fantastic food and the amazing staff led by Assistant Manager, Weisser Millien and General Manager Michael Lusk.\r\rWhen we were looking at wedding venues I had the good fortune of stumbling upon this venue while searching venues on theknot.com. There we not very many reviews but those reviews that they did have were fantastic. \r\rI even told Weisser he needs to have his brides post more reviews because I am telling you this is an incredible venue. I feel like it's the best kept secret and I am so thrilled with the wedding we had that I felt compelled to share. \r\rFrom our first meeting we loved Weisser and the venue is recently renovated and absolutely gorgeous. It feels very warm and welcoming like coming into someone’s home which we loved. The ballroom is big and with a good layout. The area for the cocktail hour is so fantastic with multiple rooms all connected and even outdoor space. They have a beautiful fireplace and mantel and great bar as well in the cocktail area. Also, there is only one wedding at a time so no sharing of your venue which was really nice.\r\rThe food was out of this world. The amount of food we had was truly insane and all of it was really good and very high quality. My friends and family could not stop talking about the food and how great it was. The cocktail hour had at least 5 or 6 different food stations plus a sushi bar, vodka and caviar bar, pizzas, tons of passed horderves, carving station, amazing seafood bar, etc. They even added a special polish station for us because at our tasting my mom mentioned she was Polish and they offered to add this which was so fantastic. And that was just cocktail hour. Dinner and Dessert were equally impressive.\r\rThe service was top notch and I loved the fact that everything was included. There was no tiered approach to the menu, no upselling. Basically whatever we wanted and more! Compared to other venues that had similar pricing, what we got from the Maplewood Country Club was so far superior.\r\rWeisser made the whole day so seamless. He made sure we had everything we needed and he just runs impeccable events. Anything you might think you need to worry about, he has it covered.\r\rMy only regret is I wish I could do it all over again and I seriously hope someone else I know gets married here because I can’t wait to go back!\r Reviewed on 09-10-2012

I just went to a wedding at the Maplewood Country Club on 6/15/12. It was by far the best wedding I have ever been to and I've been to many in my lifetime. The venue was breathtaking, the food was the best I've ever had at a wedding and I can't say enough about the wait staff. I would highly recommend it to anyone planning an affair.
