ATTENTION ALL BRIDES!!! Planning your wedding, then you need to book The English Manor!!! My husband and I got married here last November, and I know this review is a little late and I apologize for that, but The English Manor is no ordinary wedding venue. It is HOME!! The grounds are beautiful, the ballroom is gorgeous and the food was delicious. When Mark and I got engaged we looked at 12 different venues and nothing compared to The English Manor. Maddie was absolutely amazing in answering all my questions and helping me throughout the whole process. She reminded us of a friend of ours and we felt so comfortable. Troy was our Maitreād and we could not have been happier. He made our dream wedding come to life. He was so attentive to not just our needs as the bride and groom but my parents as well as my husband mom and our whole bridal party. He went above and beyond the call of duty. Thank you Troy for that. It was true my appreciated. I strongly suggest you book your wedding here. I promise you will not regret it. We didnāt. It was the best night of our lives and we thank k you English Manor for mains our dream wedding come true. Reviewed on 17-11-2023

Choosing The English Manor for our wedding was an outstanding decision that we will never regret. From the onset, the staff and venue exuded warmth and professionalism, creating an environment that our guests couldn't stop raving about.The one-wedding-a-day policy allowed us to fully utilize the venue, including time before the ceremony for photography. We had extensive decor, and the staff was incredibly accommodating and flexible in helping us realize our vision.Marlyn, our Maitre'd, and Maddie, our initial point of contact, were nothing short of amazing. The day ran seamlessly, which was largely due to their coordination. We received numerous positive comments about Marlyn from our guests, highlighting her efficiency and charm.As for the food, it was top-notch. With an Italian family in attendance, the stakes were high, but not a single person had a complaint, which says a lot!We had around 100 guests, and the venue felt spacious and comfortable. If you're planning a larger wedding with 150-200 people, the venue might feel a bit tight, so that's something to consider.In terms of cost, the pricing was very reasonable for the value provided, although Saturdays and summer months come at a premium.One thing I wish I'd known earlier is that there's a Facebook group for the venue where brides and grooms can discuss questions and share experiences. I only discovered this after our wedding, so I highly recommend joining if you choose this venue.All in all, if you're looking for a venue that offers personalized service, excellent food, and a beautiful setting, The English Manor should be at the topĀ ofĀ yourĀ list.

Corinne Monaco(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 28-09-2023 Have your wedding here! Do not look any further. When my husband and I got engaged we looked at 2 venues; Radisson at Freehold and The English Manor. The minute that we met with the staff at English Manor, he looked at me and said this is it. Then, we took a look at the grounds and we knew we werenāt going anywhere else. Marlyn is the sweetest and most caring person I have ever met. Her attention to detail is unmatched and she really does cater to your every need and want. The food is out of this world! Cocktail hour was incredible, I really could have stayed there all night. Dinner was phenomenal, I wish I could eat there every single night. They have such an extensive menu and it is worth every single penny! Reviewed on 28-10-2023

I had the pleasure of attending my niece's wedding last week at The English Manor. I heard good things about this venue, but Im always suspect, so I was happy that I was going to experience it myself, so I could determine if what my friends were saying was true. I dont shock easily, but I was shocked. The food was the top spectacular and the grounds were beautiful. I was very impressed with the choice my niece and now nephew made when choosing their venue. Also the staff was very accommodating. And I certainly can't forget Troy, the wedding planner; I believe he was called the maitre'd. I watch what goes on around me and Troy was such a great leader of the pack, everything ran on point. I have an elderly mother in a wheelchair and even though Troy had a wedding to run, he took his time to help mother and make sure she was happy and enjoying herself, he won me over just with that. The whole experience was exemplary and I would suggest The English Manor to everyone looking for tradition in their wedding and a fabulous experience. Reviewed on 02-10-2023

The English Manor - From our first visit all the way to the day after our wedding, The English Manor went above and beyond. Every staff member we worked with was so kind, helpful and truly wanted to help us have best wedding day; and we did. On the day of our wedding it rained in the early afternoon and our venue coordinator, Marlyn, was so helpful and flexible in creating a plan. We were able to have our ceremony outside in the gardens and our cocktail hour food stations inside due to the possibility of more rain. They even opened the outdoor bar and made sure the tables and chairs were dry on the decks for any guests who wanted to be outside as it did not rain. Cocktail hour was incredible and our guests are still talking about the food! The beautiful gardens and reception space speak for themselves and are stunning for photos. Truly cannot say enough amazing things about The English Manor and am so happy we had our wedding there! Reviewed on 30-09-2023

Samantha DePalma(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 31-12-2022 We could not have been more happy with our experience. From the minute we booked we felt so cared for. The maitreād that led us through our initial tour no longer works at English Manor, but that was no issue whatsoever. Marlyn picked up like she had been with us from the very beginning. EVERY email was answered with ease IN THE MOST TIMELY OF FASHIONs, and all concerns (really more so questions) were addressed. Our details meeting was so thorough and I went into our day feeling completely confident that my vision would come to life. IT DID AND THEN SOME. Again, I truly believe this was all because of Marlyn and Jen. I am Type A, so this was something I was very concerned about. From the minute we set foot on the venue property the morning of our wedding until the minute we left we were absolutely blown away. Marlyn and Jen were just so above and beyond anything we could have ever imagined. I wouldāve had Marlyn at my wedding as a guest because I love her so much. I went through my day stress free without any type of professional coordinator (which was shocking for me!). marlyn handled absolutely every single detail and issue that arose. (Again, none of which were her fault lol.) Marlyn walked around with me, carried my bouquet, made sure my phone got to my good friend to snap some photos, made sure I had a drink in my hand every minute I wanted it, and just thought of absolutely everything. She even SCRUBBED the dirt off my dress from the rain so it was perfect. I cannot recommend this stunning venue enough! Although, a team is only as good as their players. so, more importantly, i cannot recommend marlyn enough. Our guests are still raving about the venue, scenery, food, and atmosphere. We are so happy with our choice! And ILY MARLYN, SO MUCH. š¤š„¹āØ Reviewed on 03-01-2023

From start to finish they were responsive, helpful, and attentive. They always answered our questions in a timely manor. The grounds were the perfect backdrop to our September wedding. Even with the threat of rain, we were able to hold the ceremony outdoors and make the day-of decision to switch the cocktail hour inside to avoid the 6PM showers. Everything went off without a hitch. The food - everything was absolutely fantastic. The cocktail hour options were endless and had options for all dietary preferences. Dinner selections were elegant and perfectly prepared. Our guests couldn't say enough great things about the food - and we couldn't agree more. Troy, our maitre'd, was wonderful. He brought our very detailed vision to life and we couldn't imagine the the day without him. His attention to detail and commitment to making the day perfect was appreciated beyond words.

George Krall(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 25-11-2022 My wife and I got married here last week and now that everything is settled down we can sit down to write this. The English manor was hands down the most beautiful and wonderful place we've had the privilege to be married at. Last year when we were choosing places for the ceremony we landed on the English manor and at first we were stressed we wouldn't know what to do once we set a date but very luckily they gave us someone to help. Our Maitre'd Troy was so unbelievably helpful. As the wedding approached and it came time to buckle down and start planning Troy was INCREDIBLE. He helped us with practically everything we ever could've needed. Every time we had a question it was solved within a day. He even went above and beyond and helped with the wedding even 2 days before which he really didn't have to. Between Troy and everyone at the english manor, Our wedding was no doubt the happiest day of our lives. The food was perfect, the ceremony was beautiful and the planning was so specific it went down to the littliest detail. We were given so much care even as we arrived early. Ultimatley we had so much freedom and support between everyone that we can confidently say that we can recommend everything about the english manor and especially Troy who went above and beyond. We had a winter wedding and the outside lights were so beautiful we took so many photos out there. Even during the wedding we had the support of everyone it was so nice to just be able to focus on our big day. If you're thinking about a beautiful venue with great food, staff, and really helpful people, look no further. Reviewed on 02-12-2022
Laina Frances(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 29-10-2022 We held our wedding at The English Manor two weeks ago, and it was absolutely incredible! We had the BEST day thanks to the staff of The English Manor! The property is gorgeous for photos, and offers both indoor or outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour- which for a late fall wedding was helpful because although we envisioned an outdoor cocktail hour- the staff quickly transitioned to an indoor cocktail hour. I was able to bring in all my own decorations and the staff made sure to place everything as I asked. When we walked in the venue for our wedding, everything was set up perfectly. We didn't have to do an ounce of work! Every thirty minutes someone came up to us and asked if we needed anything, and they planned ample time for us to eat and drink throughout the reception. We truly spent the day relaxing, and soaking up every minute of as a bride and groom should. Our maitre'd Marlyn was incredibly attentive and professional. She made sure every detail was to my liking, and met all my expectation with such patience and kindness. I feel so lucky to have worked with her! Without even having to ask her, she saved menus, our cake, and mementos from the wedding night for me. Minutes before the ceremony, my dress sleeve ripped- and I swear four staff members swooped in out of nowhere to sew me up. Then after the ceremony, Marlyn made sure the dress was secure and my morale was okay before the reception. I was so rattled, about my dress-but her kindness made me feel so much better. We highly recommend The English Manor to any couple! I'm still getting compliments on the food and drinks! Reviewed on 15-11-2022
Daniel Ricken(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 09-10-2022 Our wedding was October 2022 and we could not be happier with our choice of venue. Over the last two weeks, we keep hearing comments from all of our guests about how incredible everything was: the food, the space, the gardens, the staff, everything. From the moment we walked into The English Manor two years ago, we were so impressed by the aesthetic beauty of the grounds, the professionalism of the staff, and the spectacular wedding packages. Their website is wonderfully clear and perfectly transparent, so we want to focus on some aspects of important to us here that could not be as easily found on those pages. Lisa (the owner) actually gave us our tour originally and we fell in love with her spunk and clear passion for her business. One particularly impressive distinction that she showed us was the state-of-the-art sound system that allowed music to be blasting on the dance floor while not overwhelming the entire space and therefore allowing guests to be talking at the tables without shouting (our guests loved this). Maddie in the office was around to happily answer any questions we had over the two-year process promptly and efficiently and worked with us to ensure that all of our needs were addressed. Wedding planning during an ever-changing pandemic was less than ideal and Maddie worked with us to keep us as calm as possible each step of the way. Along with Maddie, Marlyn (our fabulous maitreād) worked with us to accommodate some specific dietary needs for some of our VIP guests to ensure everyone not only had food to eat but options at that throughout the night. While the food was terrific, we are beyond impressed by The English Manorās policy of donating all leftover food to a local shelter at the end of the wedding. The passion for giving back to the community left a very important impression on us. One last note of appreciation is needed here on The English Manorās inclusive nature. As a gay couple, we wanted to make sure that our wedding left us both feeling empowered and celebrated at all moments. Lisa, Maddie, Marlyn, and the rest of the staff actively did this and then some. Our cocktail hour even featured a pumpkin with two grooms carved into it! Everything was perfect and we are so beyond impressed by everything here and grateful for the people who made it happen. Thank you all so much. Reviewed on 19-10-2022

We were not sure what to expect as we hadnāt seen many reviews, but we knew we were in great hands regardless. During our finalization meeting, Troy spent so much time really understanding our needs, wants, confusions, and everything in between. He gave us a no-pressure vibe that gave us the confidence that our day would turn out perfectly. As our wedding day grew closer, he was never hesitant to let us know what he needed from us, or what we had not thought about. He was always available to us and responsive to our questions day or night. There were many times that we texted him late at night not expecting a response until the next day, but we received responses within minutes. During our rehearsal he really pieced everything together for us and gave our bridal party and family the confidence in knowing what to expect the next day. He brought a sense of calm to us throughout the entire process, and we knew that on the day of, we would be fully taken care of. He really made sure that our wedding day was perfect, and we left the venue at the end of the night without a doubt that without him, that perfect bow on the day would not have happened.

We had high expectations for this venue based on the many glowing reviews we had read, and yet our wedding day was even more perfect than we could have imagined. If you want a beautiful wedding venue run by professionals who will ensure you don't have to worry about a thing on your big day, this is the venue for you. The photos available online of this venue simply do not do it justice ā you have to see it in person. As my father in law said, it's so beautiful that it can't be described. The grounds are STUNNING, and on our various visits during the wedding planning process, there were always landscapers working to maintain it. We loved the fact that our guests were able to move from the outdoor ceremony area to a separate outdoor cocktail area and then to the indoor ballroom throughout the night, and our coordinator, Marlyn, was helpful and attentive. But the number one reason to book this venue is, without a doubt, THE FOOD! I work in food media, so having amazing food at my wedding was a priority. The cocktail hour absolutely blew us away. There were stations upon stations of food, including a raw bar, bacon bar, mac and cheese bar, and a grill station. Dinner was also delicious, as was the cake from Pastry Chef in Tinton Falls. Our guests are still raving about the cocktail hour and the food in general. Throughout the night, Marlyn and her staff worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make sure that everything ran seamlessly. I felt so relaxed on my wedding day, and I know that's because I was in such great hands at the English Manor. We also loved the proximity to Asbury, Belmar and other beaches on the Jersey Shore. I did a lot of research before choosing a venue, and I can say with confidence that the English Manor also provides a great value ā the whole event felt a lot more expensive than it was in reality.

We specifically wanted a unique venue with a cozy garden vibe that did one wedding at a time and we fell in love with the grounds and people instantly. We had one other appointment at a different venue which happened to be on the same day we came here and as soon as we saw the other spot, we knew the English Manor was it for us. Lisa worked with us to find budget friendly options and to accomodate some very specific requests we had. Planning our wedding was very stressful as we were initially a Summer 2020 wedding that got postponed due to covid. The English Manor worked with us to change our wedding date and alter our contract for minimum guests. They answered all emails and calls very promptly and rescheduled weddings in a fair and organized way. On the day of our wedding, Marlyn was out maitre'd and went above and beyond for us. She met with us prior to the wedding to get a sense of what we wanted and she definitely prioritized what we discussed. She single handedly kept everything moving on schedule despite many issues coming up with other vendors the day of the wedding. When we missed cocktail hour due to photos running late, she had a table brought to us with all of our favorites from cocktail hour to snack on while finishing up family pictures. She checked in with us multiple times during the day, especially when we were starting to run off schedule and stood up for me when she saw other vendors setting things up in a way I clearly would not have wanted. Despite all the chaos that went on, she kept everything running on time and made sure we had a great time.

The garden is absolutely beautiful along with the cocktail hour patio and the newly refinished ball room. The staff was proven to go above and beyond to make sure every guest was taken care of. Our maitre d' Marlyn was fantastic! The food is incredibly delicious. The cocktail hour choices, the main meal and the cake (which is made by Tinton Falls Pastry Chef) were A+++.

She felt like an invested family member and didn't miss a beat. From start to finish, was perfection and we loved having the whole place to ourselves. We utilized every garden, deck and room available to us which also adds to the amazing experience at the manor. Almost every guest stayed till the end and were sad once it was over.

We fell in love with this place the second we pulled up. We booked in Feb of 2020, right before the world shut down. Planning a wedding with so many ups and downs was terrifying, but we knew we were in the best hands - whatever happened. Communication was always easy and Kristi is simply amazing. We were so thrilled when we were told she'd be our Maitre D. She literally became a friend to us during our planning and we couldn't have imagined our day without her.

The food was the best Iāve ever had, the decor was gorgeous, it was clean and perfectly arranged. Marlyn was a lifesaver because my bustle came undone and no one could fix it, there she was instantly to help and saved the day. She was so good at keeping us on task and getting us food and drinks. I wish it didnāt go by so fast because it was the best wedding Iāve ever been to! My guests all pulled me aside and said that they couldnāt believe the venue and how perfect every little detail was.

Alexis Isler(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-07-2021 True story: I knew that I wanted to get married at the English Manor before I even got engaged. Just from seeing the pictures online I knew it was going to be the perfect venue. My husband and I visited and booked right after getting engaged and the rest was history. Our wedding on 7/16 was the absolute best day. Despite the stress that came with having to reschedule our date due to COVID, it was all worth it. Kristi was our maitre d and made sure my husband and I had the best day. She made sure that we got to try every cocktail hour food and brought it up to the suite for us so we could have a few minutes to ourselves. She also helped glue my shoes back together after they fell apart - she truly went above and beyond! Everything went so smoothly, I really didn't have to worry about anything that day.

Nicole Fiorletti(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 25-06-2021 If you need to pick a wedding venue - you MUST pick the English Manor. They by far exceeded any expectation that I had. My husband and I got married here on 6/25/2021 and a little over a month later, my guests are still raving about the venue, the grounds, the food, the ceremony, the cocktail hour, the reception, the drinks, and the service. Our Maitre D was Kristi and she went above and beyond with everything that she did to make our day more than perfect. Kristi answered every question we had, no matter what time of day and constantly put my mind at ease. Kristi is so personable too and she makes your finalization appointment stress free and so much fun and I felt like I knew her forever because she was so easy to talk to. Kristi guided us in picking out the delicious food selection for our guests, and even packed us up leftover dinners, which was amazing to enjoy the next few days later. The English Manor has the most beautiful grounds with breathtaking gardens to get married in. There were flowers everywhere, and tons of spots outdoors to take gorgeous photos in. We did our first look outside on the bridge that leads into the ceremony space. Our ceremony took place in the garden outside, followed by a cocktail hour on the deck/patio with a beautiful waterfall in the background. The English Manor has tons of options to offer for cocktail hour - we picked the boardwalk station, which was a guest favorite. The reception room is gorgeous, and looks even more amazing filled with all of your guests and all of your details perfected. There is also a room with a gorgeous stone fireplace and coffee table that you can decorate however you would like. A few days before the wedding, I dropped off a bunch of stuff to decorate with. Some of the stuff I wanted in specific places, but I also told Kristi to put some of it where she thought would look nice and I cried when I walked in the reception room. My vision came to life. My husband and I could not stop smiling all day and we owe it all to Kristi and the staff at the English Manor. Thank you for making our day PERFECT. You will not regret selecting the English Manor as your wedding venue!!! Reviewed on 28-07-2021

She was so on top of everything from the rehearsal and day of. She even packed up to go boxes for us to eat after the reception. The venue is wonderful with the ceremony in the gardens.

We weren't able to have a food tasting due to the pandemic so I had been a little nervous, but I shouldn't have wasted single moment worrying about it because the food was out of this world!

Also, we wanted to surprise our guests with a second look and Kristie helped sneak us in to snap photos in the ballroom.

Our entire experience from the second we walked in 11 months before our wedding date was incredible. We had the privilege of working with a few different ladies through the planning process and they were each so helpful with all of my silly questions and concerns. As our wedding day approached we were absolutely blessed to meet and work with our MaĆ®tre D, Kristi. Our day would not have been as amazing as it was if not for her... she was kind, helpful, understanding, and honestly just all around wonderful (my husband and I just keep saying we just want to be her friend lol). Every detail was executed flawlessly by all of the staff - from set up, to food, and all around friendliness. Before the night was over guests were continuously coming up to us to compliment the venue, staff, and food - which was INCREDIBLE. The presentation and taste blew us all away and Iām super grateful they sent us home with leftovers so we get to enjoy it twice! Weāre seriously hoping a friend gets married there so we can experience the magic again. We were truly so blessed with our entire wedding day and are beyond happy our guests had just as much as we did. So many said it was the best wedding they have ever been to (and of course we agree)!!

Christina Jacobs(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-08-2019 The English Manor nailed it. We had our wedding in August ā19 and could not recommend the English Manor any more. From our very first visit, we knew the English Manor was our dream location. The grounds are beautiful for outdoor ceremonies and outdoor cocktail hours (natural and not too manicured which was great since we wanted a rustic feel) and the inside ballroom was just recently updated. Itās tasteful, classic and not overly lavish (again, something we were looking for - we wanted an authentic and non-pretentious feel). The food was downright delectable and we still have friends and family talking about how much they loved certain items 3 months later! The funny thing is that each person who raves about the food seems to have a different item that they enjoyed most. This showed us that the food all-around was excellent and not just a few select items. The English Manor also allowed us to do a taste testing with our parents which seems to be rare these days and was a much added bonus (and also fun!). The dance floor is a little on the smaller end for 150 people but we also had a big dancing crowd in which a good 50% of people consistently danced the entire night. The smaller dance floor made it look somewhat full but we saw this as a positive because it felt lively! Last but not least, the staff and especially our maitreād Kristi Lippiello were incredible! These people love to put on weddings and it shows! They made our day so special and worry-free by taking care of all of the details - even ones we missed ourselves. Everyone was lovely to work with and Kristi was very accessible and knew how to put a bride at ease. Looking back, itās surreal how stress-free our wedding experience was - the wedding day itself and the months leading up to it - and this was in large part due to the English Manor. Again, we cannot recommend this place any more. Other than our decision to marry each other, our selection of the English Manor as our wedding venue was the best decision we made for our wedding day!

From the moment the bridal party arrived, we were welcomed and attended to by Kristi and her team. The arriving guests were also greeted by Kristi and attended to with a Welcome Bar and a Goodbye Bar! The ballroom is beautiful with understated elegance. The large dance floor and creative lighting options helped to make it a truly fun evening! The liquor flowed at the open bar and was attended to by the very capable bartenders.

Michael Sanducci(groom)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-08-2019 The English Manor was one of the last venues we looked at and I'm SO GLAD we found it. Honestly, look no further than this place. From our first meeting, we always felt so well taken care of. They should really pride themselves on their \"one-wedding-at-a-time\" mantra. During any meeting, call, email exchange, our tasting, and the reception itself, we always felt like we had the staffs full attention. We never felt like any request was too much or that we were asking too many questions. Our maitre d, Marlyn, was one of a kind & made sure our vision came to life, everything ran smoothly, & that our guests (particularly our families & wedding party) were well taken care of. The reception, ceremony, and cocktail hour spaces are beautiful. The bridal & groomsmen suites are also an awesome perk. The food was FANTASTIC. My now husband is a chef so the food quality was important and The English Manor more than delivered. All of our guests raved about it. The cocktail hour had a lot of variety & everything was delicious. The reception dinner was out of this world & the french-style service is such a unique touch that all of our guests loved. I've been to around 10 weddings in the past couple of years and honestly you really can't beat The English Manor's package. Not to mention the all-inclusive bar selection. Also, I'd like to note that The English Manor is close enough to the shore that we were able to do first look & wedding photos on the Asbury Park boardwalk before our evening ceremony. You really can't beat the location - it's close enough to the shore to do pre & post wedding activities but it's far enough away that you don't have to deal with the crowds. Truly, The English Manor was one of the best decisions we ever made. Reviewed on 31-08-2019

When they finished the bridal party pictures they joined their guests at the Welcome Bar set up in the Garden Room. The Welcome Bar was a huge hit for guest who arrived early.

We worked with Alex during the booking process and the food tasting. Any question I had, she was quick to respond. So friendly and personable, she made us feel like she knew us forever. Kristi was our maitre'd for the wedding and she helped with the final details, cake tasting and execution of the event. As the day was approaching, I found myself having a lot of little questions. Kristi went out of her way to answer them and was so lovely about it all. Everyone we worked with seemed to really enjoy their job and genuinely cared about making our wedding the most special day for us. I felt so comfortable trusting all of the people at EM to make my wedding vision come to life. In addition to the service, the food was amazing. We both come from families who have high standards for food, and we were beyond satisfied. We opted to upgrade to the filet mignon and we were so glad that we did. Everyone in attendance was raving for days after about the wedding, especially the food. Silvana was our head waitress, and she made us feel so taken care of. She checked on us frequently throughout the night; we never wanted for anything all night. The grounds are well kept and the inside was always so clean every time we came to drop off something or attend a tasting. When we first walked in, it had a home-like feeling that felt right for us.

No stone went unturned throughout the whole process to make sure the day went smoothly. I never felt like I had to figure anything out on our own because they had it covered. They are constantly updating and working to ensure they are top-notch. Between the time we booked and our wedding day, they had renovated the ballroom, finished the patio, and added uplighting! The grounds our breathtaking and we were lucky to be able to do our first look, ceremony, and cocktail hour outside (although the inside is really just as beautiful). The food is honestly the BEST and thereās so much of it! Our guests were super impressed with everything- cocktail hour, our special food stations, the seconds passed around at dinner, and the little ice cream cones! Our head waitress made sure we were always eating and drinking as well. They worked awesome with our vendors and made the day perfect.

Gabrielle Neri(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 01-12-2018 I knew the second I walked in to The English Manor during our venue tours that it would be the perfect place to get married. Our wedding day was just that the most perfect day at the most perfect place! The entire staff was so amazing and accommodating. They made sure to be there when you needed them but also allowed you to have some time and space. I can not say enough great things about Kristi who helped organize and keep me sane all night! She is so sweet,calm and helpful and knew exactly what to do and say to make the night go so smoothly. We received so many compliments on the food,decor and scenic look of the manor.

Eliana Vallejos(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-10-2018 My husband and I got married here on October 14th. We had visited many venues, approximately 10 before we decided on The English Manor and we are so happy we did. I had visited the English Manor over a year in advance and it was the last venue I saw before making the big decision. As soon as I walked in I knew this was going to be the one. It was exactly what my husband and I were looking for. It fit our vision perfectly...it had a rustic feel, small but in BIG way, quaint & cozy. The grounds were absolutely gorgeous, and the beautiful mums were in full bloom, perfect for our outdoor October wedding. Throughout the planning process, I had returned to the venue many times when I was visiting from Miami. Everyone was always so nice and accommodating with the limited time I had in town. On the day of , our Maitre D' was Marlyn. She was amazing . Unfortunately, we had a small family related hiccup right before I walked down the aisle, but Marlyn handled it so professionally and managed to calm my nerves. Other than that the wedding went off without a hitch. My husband and I had one request, and that was that he NEEDED to eat every piece of food that was offered lol. He made it clear that he did not want to miss out on the cocktail hour food and Marlyn made sure that our bellies didn't go hungry the entire night. Our glasses and plates were always full. She not only made sure we were fed, but at one point of the night my wedding dress bustle had broke and she came running to the rescue with safety pins in hand. Everyone of our guests are still raving about the food! We had the Filet Mignon and Chicken entrees and the steak was cooked to perfection! It reminded my husband and I of a steak we would order at a highend steak house like Smith and Wollensky or Capital Grille. Us along with everyone else were thoroughly surprised. I cannot begin to tell you the amount of people who thought that cocktail hour was all the food that they were going to consume that evening. People nearly fell off their chairs when we told them that that wasn't even the entree lol. At the end of the reception I didn't have to worry about a thing. Marlyn and the rest of The English Manor did all of the cleanup and even stored all of our wedding decor in storage until we returned from our honeymoon. I would recommend The English Manor 1000x over. We are hoping to one day be invited to a wedding there so we could enjoy the venue as guests. The English Manor is absolutely perfect in every way.

We had Marlyn as our maitreād and she was absolutely amazing.

We ended up having a lot of changes to our seating chart/guest counts and we couldnāt thank Marlyn enough for all of her patience and hard work in making our day perfect.

The grounds were beautiful and well-kept and the outdoor cocktail hour area really made for a great experience.

We went for a buffet option which really kept the guests moving and on the dance floor. It was a seamless transition from cocktail hour to reception. So. Much. Good. Food! Kristi was our Maitre'D and was prompt with her responses throughout the planning process and then also took care of me and Ryan and gave us the 5-star treatment on our wedding night. The ballroom was recently redone (new wall paper, window treatments, chandeliers and up-lighting - and it looks AMAZING!)

Michael Thein(groom)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 13-10-2018 Absolutely phenomenal is the only way I can start this review after arriving back from our wedding. Kristine our maitre de was absolute fantastic and beyond professional. The staff there is the most professional I have ever seen and were all dressed professional and with courteous service. Alex who originally helped set up the details of our wedding was so courtesy and helpful with any questions we had. The food was absolutely phenomenal and we were complemented by each guest about how good the food and the variety of food for both the cocktail and reception periods. Personally we had a stir fry bar(which includes sushi) and Caribbean bar which were delicious and raved about by everyone. Other choices we available were a mash potato bar and an antipasto bar. They offer several choices for dinner ranging from chicken and beef to a variety of fish along with vegatarian and vegan meals upon request. The ballroom is beautiful with custom color lighting available (usually additional expense through your entertainment) for whatever the occasion may call for. They have their own sound system installed that makes it easy for DJ's to integrate and run the occasion. They have the ability to go strobe those lights and get the place really going. The exterior decor is just as beautiful with well manicured gardens, beautiful paver pathways with small touches such as a stream, a waterfall and a quaint gazebo for ceremonies. The exterior porch is very nice and accessible with tables and food stations for your outdoor cocktail hour. The building is self is literally an old English manor dripping with history.I understand there may be some sticker shock upon seeing the price pre person but it was absolutely worth it. They run off season specials throughout the year which can be real prizes since they usually include a dj and photography special thrown in. We had a modest size wedding(approximately 125 guest) and they all fit comfortable in the ballroom with room to spare and plenty of room to dance and enjoy ourselves. There was a small incident with the decor we brought that was beyond their control. I was notify about the incident approximately 9am and they had a solution for it no later then noon the same day. Upon arrival, the repaired decor was perfect.in appearance. Alex and Kristine both gave additional recommendstions for additional services(Entertainment, photography ND video graph) that were top notch and made the day that much less stressful. Her Communication with her staff, the entertainment staff, the photography staff, the videography staff and the bride and groom was impeccable and unbelievably.Finding service like that which was provided for our wedding day is not easy to come by and is one of those little attention to detail that is understated in the service industry. Again I cannot express how cohesive the crew of The English Manor are and their work with us to make our day the absolute best day we could ever have imagined.P. S.

Pauline Ma(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 27-05-2018 The English Manor was the fourth venue (out of four) that we went to check out in one day. It is no exaggeration that from the moment we walked in, we had a feeling we found the one. It was charming and \"homey\" in aesthetic from the outside, and once inside, the space still feels grand but also personal and intimate. The fireplace room is a really nice touch and we loved being able to decorate it as if it was our own living room.The outdoor space is beautiful and roomy - unfortunately both our ceremony and cocktail hour had to be held inside due to rain. While it was still wonderful, we know the feeling would have been a bit different if the events were outdoors surrounded by trees and the fresh florals. In our opinion the ONLY thing that would have made our wedding better is if we made it outside as planned. Still, the team was so very accommodating and kept us updated with monitoring the weather - and they were also so quick to flip the reception room to prepare for dinner seating after the ceremony.My husband and I signed our contract before we ever had a taste of the food - so we crossed our fingers and hoped for the best. Turns out it was the best (we did later do a tasting) - even during cocktail hour itself, guests were coming up to us just to tell us how amazing the food was. Now a month since the wedding, one of the most common compliments we've gotten from our guests about the wedding in general is that it was the best food they've ever eaten at a wedding - ever. Including both cocktail hour and our buffet dinner.We were SO thrilled that Kristi specifically was assigned as our maitre'd since she had given us our first tour and we had been communicating with her for months already since the first time we walked in to see EM. She is such a delightful person, so helpful and patient, and exactly the type of person you want to help ensure everything goes smoothly on the big day.It's been a month since our wedding and we can't believe it - we wish the wedding day itself was 10 hours longer, ha!

Everything leading up to our wedding day and the day itself went extremely well. The English Manor team truly made things so simple from supplying the photographer as part of a package and we also were able to choose our deejay (Billy from Wedding Set Go) from \"outside of the package.\" Chris arrived a few hours early and was able to get dressed in the beautiful Bridal Suite and than Cindy and Chris (photographers from Elite Entertainment) started taking the photographs. We were blessed with having an inch or two of snow that ended less than a half hour prior to us taking the photos. We had many family members that we wanted to be in photographs and the photographers and the English Manor staff were just so accommodating. We then had our ceremony right in the Ball Room with Debbie Zurey \"marrying us.\" Following the ceremony we went right into the cocktail hour. The food in the cocktail hour was scrumptious. Many of the guests thought that the cocktail hour food was all of the food for the evening and were more than happy with both the selection and the quality of the food which included fresh ham, mashed potatoes, coconut shrimp, and at least another 10 hors d'oeuvres . The bartenders, Joe and Dan, were just so friendly and professional. The waiting staff were truly wonderful as Chris and I had plates of food and drinks available to us at all times. Our maitre d, Denise, was always making sure that Chris and I were treated like royalty.Immediately following the cocktail hour our guests were invited into the Ball Room and then Chris and I were escorted in by our adult children. We were immediately led onto the dance floor and from that point forward we experienced the fastest and most wonderful 4 hours being surrounded by family and friends. Billy had everyone out dancing just about the entire night. Next we sat down for our meals of prime rib and salmon which we and our guests enjoyed. The wait staff then brought out seconds for those still left with any type of appetite. After dinner there were ice cream cones handed out by the wait staff and then they served a fantastic wedding cake (strawberry filling with whip cream icing). Small carrot cake and chocolate covered strawberries were also served with the wedding cake. An expresso and liquor cart was then brought out for guests to enjoy.

Lindsay Corcione(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 27-10-2017 English manor will be everything you dreamed of and more. If you are looking to have a ceremony outside, this is a dream spot to have it. Our guests said it was the best food they ever ever tasted (specifically the steak option!) and everyone said the cocktail hour food is out of this world. This venue does one wedding at a time, making each one so special. Iļø highly recommend! Reviewed on 22-11-2017

Gwen E(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 05-08-2017 Our wedding day at The English Manor was truly magical! As soon as we entered, we were immediately welcomed by Lisa who toured us around the beautiful estate. We quickly fell head-over-hells for the venue. The incredible ceremony space, the option for an outdoor cocktail hour on the beautiful deck and the stunning reception room, each part was better than the next. We quickly hopped on the opportunity to plan our dream wedding day at The English Manor. We had a phenomenal food tasting months in advance of the wedding to help choose between all of the scrumptious options. As the wedding date got closer, we met with our MaĆ®tre Dā, Denise, who put all of our worries aside. It was so easy working with Denise, she was always available for what seemed like the silliest of questions and she had great ideas and recommendations for the big day! The weather on our big day was phenomenal so we were able to fulfill our dream of an outdoor wedding. We were privileged be able to do our first look, bridal party and family pictures at The English Manor before our ceremony. The lush grounds made a beautiful backdrop for each and every picture. The cocktail hour and reception food were just incredible! My guests are still raving about the vast array of foods at cocktail hour and the quality and quantity of food throughout the entire event!The entire wedding day went incredibly smoothly thanks to Denise. She even fixed my bustle that broke at the start of the reception! Silvana was an extreme pleasure to work with on the wedding day. She made sure my husband and I always had something to drink and eat and she was able to accommodate every request. We felt like absolute royalty hosting our wedding at The English Manor. We can only hope to one day attend an English Manor wedding as a guest to experience it from the other side. Thank you Denise, Silvana, Lisa, Kristi and the entire English Manor team for making our wedding day better than we ever could have imagined! Reviewed on 11-09-2017
Michelle Hernandez(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 18-08-2017 Our search for a venue started as soon as we were engaged nearly 2 years ago. I dragged my husband to 20 venues in search of the perfect location and it wasn't until we reached our very last one at The English Manor that we had finally fallen in love with the perfect venue! From the preparations leading to the day of, to the actual big day they did not disappoint! Our Maitre'D, Marlyn, was very helpful and always responsive every step of the way! Marlyn setup everything exactly as we had envisioned and made sure everything went exactly as we had wished! Although it rained and we couldn't have our outdoor ceremony, they waited until the very last moment to make that decision which we really appreciated. Otherwise everything went without a hitch! My guests raved about the delicious food and were amazed at being able to have seconds! The service there is truly one of a kind! Thank you English Manor for making our wedding absolutely perfect!

Amber O'Kane(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 08-07-2017 The English Manor was truly the perfect venue for our special day! Their grounds are stunning, the food was over the top and absolutely delicious, and the staff was a great help. Denise took all of our decorations and visions for the day and put everything in place perfectly. The EM just had a minor renovation, adding a beautiful patio and fountain to their grounds in place of a gazebo that was once there. Family and friends took nice pictures in front of it while enjoying the indoor/outdoor cocktail hour. The only minor complaint would be how the night ended. They didn't shuffle everyone out as best as they could so a lot of guests were lingering inside still, including my father, and they missed our sparkler exit. Over a month later, our family and friends are still talking about how our wedding was so much fun and how delicious the food was. Perfect choice! Reviewed on 14-08-2017
Pamela Golda(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 12-05-2017 Our wedding at the English Manor felt like a fairy tale. From the first moment of walking into the venue, we just knew it was exactly what we were looking for. The staff is amazing, our guests are still raving about the food, and the night was just perfect. Marlyn was amazing. She felt like my best friend for the evening, making sure no request felt too big or small. The evening of our rehearsal she took the time to listen to all my wishes and turned our special day into our best day ever. Every step of planning our wedding with the English Manor was simple. As we lived out of state and had just a few trips to NJ to get everything finalized, they really understood and worked with our schedules the best they could. Every couple that is looking for the perfect garden wedding should visit with the English Manor. Choosing this venue was the best decision we ever made, and our only wish is that someone else we know will get married there so we can enjoy the evening as guests to experience the other end!

Not only is the outdoor venue beautiful and constantly being updated (improving even over our year of wedding planning with addition of a water fountain and improved river rocks), the service and attention to detail is second to none! I am an out of state bride and had so much satisfaction and relief working with our maitre'd Denise who was willing to FaceTime with myself and my now husband to plan every last detail when we were unable to come in person for meetings. Our wedding day was the best day of my life and went perfectly- I really think its the communication and hard work of the staff (especially Denise) that kept our wedding on track. And don't even get us started on the AMAZING food- our family and friends are still raving about how much there was and the quality of what was offered! Denise made sure that we ate and was so attentive- our every need and request was accommodated (even last minute changes).

Rebecca Flood(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 31-03-2017 I cannot say enough good things about The English Manor! The maitre d', Marlyn, was absolutely amazing. Everyone raved about the food and the place. Even though it rained on our wedding, they were so quick to set up the ceremony inside and then put it all back for the reception. The food was absolutely phenomenal and the fact that my husband and I didn't get a chance to eat was okay, because they packed us extra dinners and cocktail hour foods to go! Seriously amazing, they came in so handy the next day. They were also so accommodating to us, and happily let us do our gender reveal cake after our wedding cake. It was great because the whole staff was just as excited as we were, and they made it so special for us. I wouldn't have changed a thing about my wedding, and every single person there said something great about them. If you're considering The English Manor, go for it, you will not regret a thing.
