Where to begin….first and foremost, if you are looking for a place where you can have your ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, overnight stay, beautiful, historic grounds, after party space and place for wedding party to get ready, look no further!! They have it all. We had our wedding at the Grain House and I wouldn’t change a thing. From the moment we started planning, everything went smoothly. The staff we worked with, Lea Campione the event coordinator, and John Lietz the Maitre D, were very communicative, offering quick and detailed responses to any questions we had. The price was very reasonable compared to other venues I had looked at as well. The food was delicious and the options for both cocktail hour and reception were abundant and creative! The helpfulness of all staff on the day of was efficient and professional.
What struck me most about the day, was the intimate feel of the venue. The property is cozy, quaint and beautiful. There is a River in back and some nice tall oaks that lend well to taking picturesque photos. We had our tented dance floor outside of the where dinner was held which made for a very fun evening as well! I enjoyed having the outdoor dance floor as well as an adorable space for guests to do photos with a “Let’s Celebrate” backdrop. The quaint details of the venue added character to the backdrop do the evening. Our suite was beautiful and we received a bottle of champagne along with chocolate covered berries. During the reception, our Maitre D made sure we were able to eat our leftovers and had them brought to our suite to enjoy later. They also give you a gift for your wedding as well:).
All in all, I’d give this place 10/10. Can’t recommend enough! A true hidden gem 💎 -

We recently had our wedding ceremony and reception at The Grain House at The Olde Mill Inn and could not have asked for a better experience. From the moment we toured the grounds to the day of our wedding, the staff was professional, responsive, organized, and genuinely caring every step of the way. We truly felt like family throughout the entire process.
The grounds were absolutely beautiful and created the perfect setting for our special day. The food was amazing, and we received so many compliments from our guests about both the cocktail hour and reception dinner. Everything ran smoothly, and the team truly made us feel supported throughout the entire process.
We highly recommend The Grain House at The Olde Mill Inn to anyone looking for a beautiful wedding venue with exceptional service and delicious food! -

We had our wedding at the Olde Mill Inn on 3/28/26, and it was truly everything we hoped for and more. Leah was great to work with throughout the booking process. She was super helpful and easy to communicate with, which made everything feel a lot less stressful early on. One of the things we loved most about the venue is that there is a hotel right on site, which made everything so convenient for our guests. On the day of the wedding, everything was seamless, and the staff made us feel completely taken care of. The food and drinks were delicious; our guests are still talking about how great everything was. Reda, our maître d’, was incredible. He kept everything on track and made sure we were always taken care of, which let us just enjoy the day without worrying about anything. The venue itself was beautiful, we couldn’t be happier with our choice and would highly recommend the Olde Mill Inn to anyone looking to get married. -

Kristina Sent on 04/18/2026Everyone in New Jersey should have their wedding here
I was having a hard time finding a venue that would take our guest count. We had roughly 80 guests and when I reached out to Olde Mill they said they could easily accommodate our party size.
As we toured the venue and got to know the space, we immediately saw how much they treat everyone like family and we were blown away by how many things are included in their wedding packages! Seriously, they can print menus, put out table numbers, give you lovely center pieces at no extra cost! And that's just naming a few things.
There are also very flexible. My husband wanted to have an Indian dish as an option for our entree selection and when we reached out to ask if Olde Mill could do that, say they 'absolutely!' And let me tell you, that dish came out so amazing that people at our wedding were saying they wanted to give the chef a Michelin Star for that dish alone. On that note, the food it truly outstanding. I really wanted to focus on food for our wedding and every dish, every cocktail item was incredible.
We really did feel like family by the end of it. Our Maitre'D David Goldsmith, was an absolute rock star with making sure we had everything we needed. Our wedding was truly perfect. We still have family members telling us how amazing it was. -

Madison Sent on 04/02/2026Thank you, Lea and David!
We got married at The Olde Mill Inn on March 14th, 2026 in the ballroom. We did our rehearsal dinner in the Grain Room at The Grain House the night before. We discovered The Olde Mill Inn in 2020 and spent our first New Year’s Eve together as a couple there. We fell in love with its charm, accessibility, and amenities. It was our first, and after our due diligence, only choice for our wedding venue. One of our favorite elements was that everything was on site; we arrived on Friday for our rehearsal and didn’t leave property until Sunday morning when it was all over, so no need for transportation for us or any of our guests if they wished. Our salesperson, Lea, was with us for the whole process and answered every single questions we had promptly and with compassionate and knowledge. We met David, one of the maitre’d, at one of their bridal shows (which are a must-attend as they are incredibly informative, fun, and a great representation of how they run events), and we liked him so much right off the bat that we requested him for our wedding. Thankfully, our request was granted, because we cannot picture our day being as perfect as it was without David! He went above and beyond at every single opportunity. This is because, fundamentally, David is personable, empathetic, and intuitive. David is so easy to communicate and work with. He is thorough, as evidenced by how sufficiently he was able to address all considered and unconsidered needs and concerns. David ensured our wedding ran smoothly, and that us and our guests were cared for, happy, and had a wonderful experience. Thank you, David, Lea, and everyone at The Olde Mill Inn and The Grain House! -

We had a wonderful time having our wedding at the Olde Mill Inn - beautiful venue and very responsive staff. It was also nice to stay at a room in the venue the night before and night after the wedding so we didn't have to worry too much about traveling on that date. Just wanted to shout out Reda who was a fantastic maître d' - he took care of everything on the day, including the decor details I was worried about. Thank you so much! -

Our wedding at the Olde Mill Inn and Grain House was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect. The food was outstanding—beautifully presented, delicious, and praised by every one of our guests. From cocktail hour to dessert, everything exceeded our expectations.
The service throughout the entire day was truly impressive. The team was attentive, organized, and warm, making us feel completely taken care of. John Lietz, our maitre d’ deserves special recognition—professional, calm, and incredibly helpful, he was always two steps ahead and made the day run seamlessly.
The hotel accommodations were equally amazing. Our wedding suite can only be described in one word – “incredible”. Our guests loved the convenience of staying right on-site and spoke highly of the rooms. The atmosphere of the entire property created the perfect blend of elegance and coziness.
If you’re looking for a venue that delivers exceptional food, top-tier service, and beautiful accommodations all in one place, the Olde Mill Inn and Grain House is truly unbeatable. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day.

Amazing Wedding Venue!
We had our wedding reception at the Olde Mill Inn on 10/25/2025 and it was absolutely fabulous. We booked with Lea and David was our Maitre’D. Both friendly, professional, great response time, very helpful, and straightforward. The night itself was a dream and everything went smooth without a hitch. David was fantastic. From single handedly opening the doors for our entrances to bringing myself and my groom water on the dance floor, he was extremely hands on. The venue itself is beautiful, warm, and cozy. The Bridal Suite is huge with an awesome view. Something that makes this place especially unique is their outdoor courtyard right outside the reception room. This provided a gorgeous extra space for our guests to take a breather. Most importantly, our guests told us our cocktail hour and dinner was some of the best they’ve had. Highly recommend for your next event! -

Sarah Sent on 11/23/2025John & Lea are THE BEST at The Grain House!
We had our wedding at the Grain House in Nov 2025 and it was PHENOMENAL
We cannot recommend John and Lea highly enough! John, our wedding maitre d, was absolutely phenomenal - graceful, attentive, and professional in every way. From the first interaction to the final farewell, he ensured that everything ran smoothly and seamlessly.
His attention to detail and calm presence made us and our guests feel completely taken care of.
Lea, our sales manager who also graciously took the time to be our day-of coordinator, was incredible as well. She guided us through the entire planning process with patience, expertise, and genuine care. On our wedding day, she was everywhere at once, keeping everything on track without ever feeling intrusive.
John and Lea went above and beyond, helping move countless items and making sure every detail was perfect. The bride's mom, who was in charge of decorations, said that the design of the day would not have been possible without their incredible help and care. Thanks to their hard work and dedication, we were able to truly relax and enjoy every single moment of our day.
Together, John and Lea made our wedding not just a beautiful event, but a flawless, stress-free, and joyful experience. We are so grateful for them and would hire them a hundred times over! We will miss them so much because they were so kind and we hope our friends have their weddings here too!!! -

Our wedding at the Olde Mill Inn was perfect! I can’t recommend this venue enough if you’re looking for an amazing place to get married and good value for your money! We got married at the Grain House which was the perfect size for our 110 guests. The Grain House and Grain House Riverside was beautiful and it was especially nice that our guests could stay in our block at the Olde Mill Inn so they didn’t have to travel between the hotel and venue. We got so many compliments on the quality and variety of foods offered (and can confirm everything was delicious). The staff is also incredible—they really work with you to make sure your vision comes to life and the whole day of the wedding goes smoothly. David was our Maitre D and he really went above and beyond to make sure everything was set up and that all our guests were comfortable, especially since we had several older guests with mobility issues. Kate, our sales manager, was also really helpful helping us coordinate visits and tastings since we are from out of state. Overall, we give the Olde Mill Inn a 10/10 for being the best wedding venue ever:) -

Pj Mura Sent on 10/06/2025We had the best day ever!
I just got married at the Olde Mill Inn on Friday, October 3rd of 2025 and everything was absolutely perfect! We had our rehearsal dinner at the Grainhouse Restaurant, our ceremony in the courtyard, and our reception in the ballroom at the hotel. We loved how this felt like a full "wedding weekend" experience. Everything we needed was right there. We arrived on Thursday afternoon and relaxed and enjoyed as the party unfolded around thanks to the wonderful staff at the Olde mill Inn! The staff provides excellent, high-quality service with a genuine smile. Every employee I interacted with from maid services all the way to our Matre'd was friendly and attentive.
Our Matre'd, John, was fun-loving, flexible, and over all just a joy to work with! The planning process was easy with constant email access to Kate (in sales) and John at all times. I never had a question go un-answered. I highly recommend this venue! My wedding there was one of the best nights of my life and I am so happy that we chose the Olde Mill Inn! -

Amanda Sent on 09/14/202510000/10 – The Wedding of Our Dreams at The Olde Mill Inn
Our wedding at The Olde Mill Inn was truly a dream come true. From the start of the process which was booking with our sales associate, Leah, to checking out the morning after the wedding, everything was seamless, thoughtful, and stress free.
Planning and Tasting:
Leah was our first point of contact and made the entire booking process so easy. We connected with her several times in the beginning and she happily answered every single question we had, even though she probably answers the same ones all of the time. She always made us feel supported and never rushed.
We met our Maitre D, Reda, at our complimentary tasting in May and immediately knew we had to have him for our wedding day. About six weeks before the wedding, we met with Reda in person again and he went over every single question in incredible detail, which gave us so much clarity and confidence going into the big day. Leah made sure we were able to have Reda as our Maitre D, and we are so glad she did.
Ceremony and Flow:
We had our ceremony on site in the beautiful courtyard, which was already so stunning with flowers and greenery that our florist barely had to add anything. The transition from ceremony to cocktail hour to reception was completely seamless. Our guests never felt like they were waiting around and everything ran right on time thanks to Reda and the incredible staff.
Food and Drinks:
The food was beyond amazing. The Mash-Tini bar during cocktail hour was a huge hit and everyone loved the mashed potatoes served in martini glasses with all the toppings. The staff even boxed up plates of every hors d’oeuvre for us to enjoy later, along with every entrée from dinner so we could try them all. Many of our guests told us it was the best wedding food they had ever had. The bartenders were wonderful and Reda even went out of his way to get lychee juice so I could have my signature lychee martini. The wedding cake from Calandra’s bakery, which is part of the package, was three layers with three flavors, beautifully presented, and saved for us to enjoy later.
Getting Ready and Overnight Stay:
The Sawyer Suite was perfect for getting ready with my bridal party. It was spacious, stocked with everything we needed, and the ideal place to start the day. After the reception, my husband and I stayed overnight in one of the beautiful suites and were greeted with champagne and chocolate covered strawberries. It was such a romantic way to end the best day ever.
Staff and Service:
The staff at The Olde Mill Inn is exceptional. They are professional, polished, and made us feel like a priority from start to finish. Reda delivers service nothing short of perfection. He checked in with us all night, adjusted to our last minute changes, and made sure we could truly enjoy the celebration. Our families and bridal party were taken care of at every turn and our timeline flowed perfectly.
Guest Experience and Convenience:
Having everything in one place, the ceremony, reception, hotel rooms, and a complimentary breakfast the next morning, was a total game changer. We were the only wedding in the building that day, which made the entire experience feel so private and special. After the reception, we hosted our after party at The Grain House Restaurant right across the parking lot. It was amazing and so convenient to just walk over with our guests, have some drinks, and end the night together.
Overall Experience:
Our entire experience with The Olde Mill Inn was outstanding. Every detail was handled with such care and professionalism, from the planning process to the last dance of the night. The food was phenomenal, the service was flawless, and the atmosphere was everything we dreamed of. Knowing we were the only wedding in the building that day allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every moment without stress.
Leah even found us the next morning to check in and make sure we had a great night. She did not have to do that, but it meant so much that she thought of us and remembered our day.
A Special Thank You:
A heartfelt thank you to Reda for making our night truly so special and a night we will always remember. It is bittersweet that our journey with The Olde Mill Inn is over because we would do it over and over again if we could. If you are looking for a venue that is beautiful, stress free, and filled with personal touches that make your day feel special, The Olde Mill Inn is where you want to be. -

Julia Sent on 03/02/2025Our wedding was literally perfect - thank you, Olde Mill Inn!
The Olde Mill Inn and their staff helped make our dreams come true! It was our ideal venue for not for my husband and I, but for all our guests. We felt like our whole wedding day extended into a long wedding weekend since the Inn's accommodations made it so easy for us and our guests to stay, relax, and celebrate to the fullest.
The food was incredibly delicious, the comfort of the place was outstanding, and we just had SO much fun the entire time. Our Maitre D was attentive, supportive, lively & funny, and he helped us each step of the way. Our sales manager was so easy to work with and responsive as well, and the staff team were so professional yet easy going and on the ball the entire time. Our guests were seriously impressed with the whole experience that the Olde Mill Inn provided, as were we.
The planning process felt so much easier to do because of all the helpful resources the Olde Mill Inn provided. And when the big day came, it was smiles and joy all around--we would one thousand percent recommend the Olde Mill Inn every single time! -

The Olde Mill Inn was a dream venue. We got married in December and it was decorated beautifully for Christmas. Guests are still talking about how stunning the Olde Mill looked. We worked with Lindsay to book and plan out the details and she was so prompt and helpful with her responses. We were lucky to have John as our maitre d and he made sure everything was taken care of leading up to and on the day of the wedding. John brought us and our parents appetizers and drinks throughout cocktail hour and when it was time to cut the cake, he ran to make sure our parents didn't miss it. We were so fortunate to have him help to make the day wonderful. One of the greatest aspects is the convenience of having the rooms right there on site. It was easy for guests to head to bed after the reception - or after the after party at the Grain House across the parking lot. -

Dream wedding
Cannot thank the staff here enough for making this our dream wedding day. My husband and I were looking for something historic, cozy, upscale but still down to earth and we definitely found that. Included was a stunning honeymoon suite and large bridal lounge, outdoor space as well (we were in the main ballroom—very lovely by the fire pit, our guests loved this!) They are so accommodating, great food and beautiful surroundings. My vision for a winter wedding was fully realized and the Xmas decor was stunning! We got so many compliments about their top notch service throughout the event, servers do an amazing job here. Couldn’t ask for more. Thank you Kate, John, and so many more! -

We were SO happy with how our wedding at the OMI went. From the Lindsey in sales to David as our Maitre D, we could not have been happier with how our wedding went. Our ceremony was off-site but we got ready and had the cocktail hour and reception at the OMI. The morning getting ready was so relaxing and everyone was extremely helpful. ** just a fun tip. My husband and I stayed in the Bernards suite the night before the wedding, that way we had the room for full wedding day and that is actually where the guys got ready and it worked perfectly! We had a cocktail style dinner and had a few little random requests that they accommodated perfectly. The entire staff was welcoming and professional and it was such a cozy winter time wedding. The location is also great because it is right off the highway and easy to access. I recommend the OMI for many types of couples who are looking for a cozy, yet formal wedding venue who want a stress-free and fun day. We had SO MUCH FUN at the OMI from start to finish. Thank you! -

Amazing wedding venue
The place was decorated beautifully for Christmas and they had lanterns and votive candles available to us for the reception. Kate was our sales coordinator and helped us with booking until we were assigned a maitre d. She is so kind and patient and answered the millions of questions I had! She even checked in with us on the wedding day to make sure we were happy. She responds to emails quickly which is something I appreciate. She was fabulous to work with!
Reda was our maitre d and he did a great job at making sure everything ran smoothly. He was so attentive and made sure we knew what was going on leading up to the wedding and the day of. He made our vision come to life and made sure we were happy. There was 1 server per table and they were efficient. Plates were cleared quickly and guests got refills of wine. We got a private cocktail hour with literally every station and passed hors d’oeuvres. He even brought us our signature drinks. I don’t really drink alcohol and he made sure I had sparkling cider for the toast instead of champagne. My signature drink was a Shirley temple! We had every opportunity to eat dinner but weren’t hungry! They brought us 1 of each entree and boxed up any leftovers and had them brought to our room at the end of the night. All of our decor was packed up and brought to our room by the time we got up there. Everyone was so great to work with, the food was amazing, and there are so many opportunities for photos around the venue. I truly hope we get invited to a wedding there one day so we can enjoy it again! -

Megan Sent on 11/27/2024The Olde Mill Inn Goes Above And Beyond
We hosted our wedding at the Olde Mill Inn in November of 2024, and we were absolutely blown away by the food, the venue itself, and the level of service they provide.
They have two venues on site, the Olde Mill Inn hotel and the Grain House restaurant. We went with the Olde Mill Inn and they were great, even above our expectations. Their facilities are beautiful, with a unique vibe, layout, and history that leaves an impression on wedding guests. They are an all-in-one package that we found really valuable when planning a wedding. They have a fantastic ceremony location in their courtyard, they are a well-run venue with great food, and the Olde Mill Inn is a convenient hotel for your guests so you won't have to worry about providing shuttle service. Also, the bar at the Grain House is open late for wedding guests looking for an after party.
Their food menu for weddings is full of really unique and delicious options. Their team is also great at making sure the bride and groom get the time and service they need in order to fully enjoy their wedding night, including the food! I've been to weddings where the bride and groom barely ate, but I have to that our maitre'd David and his team for making sure to provide us with every available menu item we had at our wedding, plus plenty of water and drinks.
David really was the MVP of our wedding, making sure our needs were met, interfacing with our vendors when we couldn't, and being open to helping us pull off our more out-of-the-box ideas. His whole team was great. Extra shout out to Gloria for helping pin up the bustle on my wife's dress. We can't thank the whole team enough! -

Melissa Sent on 11/22/2024Dedicated, caring, and beautiful venue!
I cannot recommend the Olde Mill Inn highly enough! My husband and I got married in the ballroom in June 2024, and it was truly a wonderful experience.
We signed our contract in January 2024 and took advantage of the summer special discount, which included reduced costs and added perks. From start to finish, the staff at OMI was incredible. I especially want to praise John and Lea, along with the rest of the team, for their attentiveness, availability, and dedication to ensuring every detail of both our wedding and rehearsal dinner was perfect.
One of the standout aspects of our experience was working with our maître d’, John, who began coordinating with us eight weeks before the wedding. Getting to know him (and having him get to know us) made the entire process so much more personal and special. I also highly recommend using OMI’s Preferred Vendors—it made a big difference to work with people familiar with the venue and its processes.
In addition to offering the honeymoon suite for free on the wedding night, OMI provides the bride and groom with a certificate for a complimentary hotel room on their first anniversary—a thoughtful and generous gesture!
Overall, I 100% recommend the Olde Mill Inn. The staff is dedicated, kind, and caring, and they go above and beyond to make your day unforgettable. -

Warm & cozy
We had the most magical wedding in the Ballroom. The courtyard was beautiful for our ceremony, the food throughout was incredibly delicious, and the service was friendly, professional, and caring. The staff always made sure our needs were taken care of and answered any questions we had through the process. From the moment we met our Maitre'd David, we knew we were in the best of hands. He was friendly, honest, and helpful. Leading up to our wedding he was always available when we had questions, and by the time our wedding day came we had full confidence that it would be a perfect day. David checked on us and kept our schedule timely, making sure we got to enjoy every moment of our special day. We received many comments from our guests about how lovely the hotel staff was too!

From the tour, to planning, to the wedding, Olde Mill Inn was a dream to work with. I went with their micro wedding package at the Grain House restaurant, and it was the most beautiful intimate wedding I could have ever hoped for. Reda, our Maitre D was so attentive and really took the time before and during the wedding to make it an event not only our guest could enjoy, but us as the couple too. I absolutely loved my wedding, and cannot thank the Olde Mill Inn enough for their help in making it a dream come true! -

THE Wedding Venue! Your Search is OVER!
Where do I even begin? We got married at the Grain House at the Olde Mill Inn on May 23, 2024, and it was nothing short of perfect. The entire wedding planning process was made easy thanks to everyone at the OldMill Inn and Grain House. They are very responsive, which is crucial when planning a wedding. My grandmother and grandfather had their wedding reception here back in 1957, so I knew I wanted to meet with them to discuss having my wedding there. It was the first and only venue we met with. After going on a tour and discussing the different packages with Lea, I was sold. They take care of your accommodations, catering, bar, cake, tables, chairs, etc. My wedding planning “to-do” list was cut in half! Everyone is so accommodating and they really work with you to make sure your day goes perfectly. So many guests told us how they never experienced wedding food to this level. Everything was DELICIOUS! Better yet, we actually got to eat as the bride and groom. The property itself is gorgeous. John was our Matre d’ and he was the best! He made sure we stayed on time, he ran food from the cocktail hour to me and my husband when we were taking photos, and he coordinated with our vendors so we didn’t have to worry. His efforts did not go unnoticed. Once again I had guests come up to me and tell me how amazing he is. I also had guests reach out after to tell me it was the best wedding they have ever been to. All of our vendors were fantastic but the Old Mill Inn and Grain House really did the bulk of the work to make it an unforgettable experience. The hotel itself was wonderful to stay in, everything was so clean and the breakfast was delicious. I wouldn’t change a thing about my wedding day, everything was perfect and I really have the Old Mill Inn and the Grain House to thank for that. I would recommend the Old Mill Inn and the GrainHouse to anyone planning a wedding. It really is the ONLY choice in my opinion. You will not be disappointed. -

My husband and I had the pleasure of hosting our micro-wedding at the Old Mill Inn in Basking Ridge, New Jersey, on October 19th, and I can't emphasize enough just how perfect our day was. From start to finish, it was an extraordinary experience.
First and foremost, finding a venue that offered a perfect setting for micro-weddings (under 50 people) at such an affordable price was a dream come true. The per-plate prices were exceptionally reasonable, and the fact that they included an open bar was a fantastic bonus. The venue itself was nothing short of magical.
We chose to hold both our ceremony and reception at the Old Mill Inn, and it was a fantastic decision. The outdoor setup for the ceremony, by the gazebo and near the river, was absolutely perfect. The serene backdrop of the river also provided stunning opportunities for our wedding photos. The attention to detail and the accommodations provided for the ceremony setup exceeded our expectations.
For our reception, we opted for an indoor setting, and the setup was impeccable. The dance floor and bar area created a lively atmosphere, and the Old Mill Inn had thoughtfully taken care of every detail, from table arrangements to centerpieces, if desired. The food was delicious, and our guests couldn't stop raving about it.
One feature that stood out was the availability of two rooms above the reception area for parties to get ready in. My bridesmaids and I spent the entire day there, from hair and makeup preparations to the moment our ceremony began. The convenience and comfort of these rooms were unparalleled.
Planning a New Jersey wedding all the way from California made us a bit nervous, but the Old Mill Inn made it incredibly easy for us. They were responsive and accommodating every step of the way.
Now, I must give special recognition to our Matre D, Reda. From the very beginning of the planning process, he stayed in close communication with us, addressing our questions and ensuring he had all the necessary details. On top of all that, he took our guest book, card box, centerpieces the day prior and with little to no instruction was able to create a beautiful ambiance using our stuff. Reda's updates throughout the day kept us informed and stress-free, as he took care of all vendor communication, allowing us to focus on getting ready and savoring the moment.
Our wedding day at the Old Mill Inn was nothing short of perfect and seamless. I couldn't stop talking about how wonderful everything was. If we ever find ourselves on the East Coast again, planning another event, the Old Mill Inn will undoubtedly be our first choice. Our heartfelt thanks go to the entire team, and especially to Reda, for making our special day an unforgettable, picture-perfect experience. Reda truly went above and beyond, and his attention to detail and dedication to ensuring our day was flawless was nothing short of remarkable. He was not just a Matre D; he was an indispensable part of making our wedding day unforgettable. -

We just had our wedding here and I am actually overwhelmed by all of our guests reaching out to tell us how amazing everything was. From the pure beauty of the venue to the amazing cocktail hour to the outstanding service from the staff. John was our maitre d and he completely hit it out of the park, paying not only close attention to my husband and I but to both of our families. Both of our parents kept repeating “John is so good, John is too good”. I am completely in awe of how everything came together. -

There is nothing I'm more sure of than recommending the Olde Mill Inn for your wedding. From the moment I visited to my wedding day it was truly an easy and beautiful process. For starters it was important for us to have hotel accommodations close as majority of our guests traveling for our wedding and nothing is closer than inside the venue. The room block prices were very affordable, the rooms are beautiful, and OMI are flexible with you if you need more rooms for your block. Communication throughout the planning process was amazing, any question I had my sales person and Matire'd answered within hours (shoutout John and Lea)! The food is incredible and their packages and add-ons offer a variety of different types of foods. Leading up to the wedding (when anxiety levels are at the highest), John (my matire'd) worked with me to accommodate any and all decor drop off, changes, and questions. The day of was perfect from start to finish. The room where the bride and bridesmaids get ready is so big with a bathroom within steps. There are two stations with mirrors and chairs for hair and make-up, but we were actually able to set up three with the amount of room and stylists we had. The entire day John was attentive to me while handling all of the different vendors coming in and out. He also made sure my husband and I and our families constantly had food and drinks in our hands. We also had our wedding in September which enabled us to utilize the courtyard directly outside our cocktail and reception area. The ballroom was set up exactly how I imagined and the service throughout the wedding was impeccable. I truly could not recommend the Olde Mill Inn more if I tried. -

Theresa Sent on 09/08/2023The loveliest venue for the best day!!
I always knew that when I got married, I wanted a very specific 'family reunion' feeling for my wedding: I wanted the hotel and ballroom in the same location so guests could check in, get ready, celebrate with us, go back to their rooms, and have breakfast the next day all in one place, all together. There are surprisingly not that many venues in NJ to offer these type of accommodations, and I found recommendations for the Olde Mill Inn quickly when researching venues with hotel rooms attached. We went to tour and fell in love with the feeling we got there: the OMI is quaint, charming, and warm. The staff: Lea, our booking coordinator, and Reda, our maitre'd, were extremely responsive to every question and request we had throughout the entire planning process. We met with Reda a few months before our big day and really appreciated his concern and attentiveness to the food allergies and restrictions of some of our guests, something that was extremely important to us. On the day of our wedding, he was so attentive and made sure we were never without food or a drink. Even though we had plenty to eat during our cocktail hour thanks to him, he made sure to wrap extra food up for us to enjoy in our honeymoon suite that night after the party was over. So many of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue was and what a great experience they had. Our wedding was absolutely perfect, and I can't imagine having had it anywhere else! The Olde Mill Inn gave us the exact feeling we wanted for our wedding day: a place where family and friends could be together and feel surrounded by warmth and love! -

The Olde Mill Inn made our wedding day everything we'd ever want and more. Especially our amazing Maitre D John, who is literally Superman! He made us feel so comfortable and took care of us like family. He even got us late night pizza at 2am 😂
We got married at the Grain House with the ceremony outside, cocktail hour upstairs inside/out, dinner downstairs, and dancing outside under the tent. Not only is the venue beautiful, but they know what they are doing. This is evident in the fact that every couple gets a Maitre D and the planning process is smooth and professional from start to finish. This is one point that sold us. The other point was the food and the value for your money. The food was great and there are so many options to choose from.
Our wedding suite was HUGE, like a whole apartment, and had everything you could ever need. The hotel is pretty small but they have great service and the area is also very nice. I could go on and on about all of the amazing things that the OMI offers!
I highly recommend this venue and if possible, get John as your guy ;)
One point for improvement: more signs, especially in the parking lot. Because there are two locations for weddings, some of the guests got confused and went to the wrong place! This also applies to our cocktail hour and reception - it was not clear for guests that there were other rooms available to them. Because of this some things were not as visited as they should have been. -

Noelle Sent on 07/30/2023THANK YOU Teresa and Reda! :)
If you are looking for a venue that sincerely cares about your events and celebrations, please look no further than the Olde Mill Inn! My husband and I have family from all over the country, so we knew we needed a venue with hotel accommodations nearby. We viewed 10 different venues, and no other location offered the same level of sincerity, support, and kindness.
Teresa (our sales coordinator) did everything possible to make us feel welcome and supported from the booking to the actual event itself. As we did our initial walkthrough, a few events were setting up. People kept pulling us aside, saying "Definitely book this place!" and "Teresa is amazing!" It left an incredible impression that so many people wanted to tell us about their positive experience.
Those people were 100% right. Teresa would regularly check in on us, invite us to their engagement events and expos, and she would always find time to say hello to us when we'd stop by. Unlike other venues that try to force you into giant packages using sneaky tactics, Teresa is very upfront about the pricing options and where your money is going, and she provides clear and easy-to-read documentation. This transparency further reinforced our selection.
We used the "Simply Elegant" package at the Grain House for roughly 100 guests, with a few additional add-ons (jumbo shrimp at the cocktail hour & an intermezzo lemon sorbet during the reception). Because of the rain, the ceremony was held under the tent outside, which ended up feeling so much more personal and intimate. When the cocktail hour was underway, that area transformed into the outdoor dance floor. For the cocktail hour, we highly suggest the mashtini bar. People still haven't stopped talking about it! The food was delicious and there was so much variety for our guests.
Reda (our wonderful Maitre'D) was excellent & supportive during the stress of wedding planning. He was patient, kind, and thoughtful leading up to the event, and he made sure to keep everything on time and on track. During the ceremony & reception, I didn't have to think about anything other than celebrating my wedding!
A great example of Reda's kindness: my husband and I skipped our cocktail hour because we were too tired after the long day. Rather than missing all of that delicious food, Reda fixed two assorted plates for us. :) He also had a plate of chocolate covered strawberries & champagne brought to our bridal suite at the end of the night.
I could keep going on about how much we love this venue and the people that work here. I hope everyone (newly engaged brides especially) consider this beautiful venue and wonderful experience. Thank you all so much for being a part of our magical day! -Noelle and Daniel :) -

The Olde Mill Inn was the PERFECT wedding venue for us! It is a cozy space and has everything you need for a seamless wedding. We worked closely with Lindsay, who gave us the first tour of the entire venue and helped us book our contract. She was incredibly kind and was always there to answer any and all questions that we had. Closer to the wedding day, we worked with our Maître D, David, who was outstanding! David took the time to go over every single detail of our wedding day and made sure that the day ran smoothly and that all of our ideas came to life. Not only was he extremely helpful to my husband and I, but he also made sure that all of our family, friends and wedding vendors were happy and comfortable throughout the day. He was so patient with us and we truly appreciate all of his guidance and expertise.

The Olde Mill Inn was exactly the perfect place for us. We had our reception at The Grain House. It is cozy and romantic. The grounds are beautiful. We were blessed with perfect weather that day and it was lovely to be able to use the outside deck during the cocktail hour. Our maitre d’ was Reda and he was an absolute pleasure to work with. The entire staff at the Olde Mill Inn is fantastic. They are very professional and personable. They were also very accommodating. Our guests are still talking about how amazing the food was.! We had a couple of special dietary requests for some of our guests (gluten allergy) which was no problem at all. They also added ramps for us wherever the stairs were to accommodate our handicapped guests. Our cake was from Palermo’s and was included with our wedding package. It was so beautiful and delicious. A lot of our guests also stayed at the hotel and the rooms were all very comfortable and clean. They were also a very reasonable rate and included breakfast the next morning. We really cannot say enough good things about this venue and would do it all over again in a heartbeat! Thank you Olde Mill Inn! -

![Katie]()
Katie Sent on 09/01/2022Olde Mill Inn for the Win!!!
This is going to be a long review - because everything was exceptional! I looked into over 150 venues in NJ and PA. I probably have more info for NJ venues saved on my computer than wedding wire has in their database at this point. I compared locations, prices, reviews, aesthetic, menus. You name it, I covered it. The FIRST place I looked into was Olde Mill Inn. I went to see it and I walked into the lobby and cried. I have no idea what came over me because I hadn't even seen the ceremony or reception space but I just knew it was 100% for me and that this is where we were going to get married. I chose the Grain House versus the Olde Mill Inn because it is more my style! It was around Christmas time and the place was so beautifully decorated. I added a picture so you can get a sense of my first impression!! Immediately I struck up a conversation with the mother of a bride that was getting married that day and she was over the moon that I was going to choose this venue - she had nothing but incredible things to say - all the great things they say in those reviews you read are 100% true. They should probably start a training company for wedding venues.
I'm from the mountains in NY and I LOVE gardens, gazebos, rivers, forests - this place has it all and it was SO easy to get to - right off the exit!! The entire process was smooth - I initially was in contact with Lindsay who was really great at helping me figure things out and giving me information that I needed to assist with my decision. I think there's an 80-email chain somewhere with her in my inbox - she was so helpful!!! During the first tour visit I had all of my questions answered. Although I looked into other venues, I never actually went to see any others. I saw the space in the dead of winter and it was still beautiful - I knew it would be perfect for my Summer wedding and I was right!
The one thing I absolutely loved was what you get for the cost. Affordable luxury is definitely the term I would use. None of the other places I looked into offered what OMI offered. If they did - their reviews were not that great. I read reviews on every site even on sites where they are more harsh and still was met with nothing but positivity.
My main focus for my wedding aside from the ceremony itself, was food. It was extremely important to us that we feed our guests, a way to give back in a sense, as a thank you for coming but also as a thank you for all the christmases and thanksgivings etc. I can't tell you how many of my guests came up to me and said the food was incredible. A very picky guest of ours said it was the BEST wedding food he's ever had and he's been to many weddings, so for me that was one of the highlights! Other people dubbed it the "best" food as well! We are all Italians and we are used to big meals and can eat a lot of food and they really DELIVERED!!! It was all delicious!!!
David was our Maitre D' and let me tell you they couldn't have chosen a better fit for us. I wanted David from the start after reading so many reviews about him and was ecstatic they chose him for us. I had so much to do and he was so great at 1) being there when you needed him(how is he in so many places at once?) and 2) calming down the frantic bride who was so late to everything. I remember the one thing that stood out to me the most is when I showed up late to drop off last minute decor (4 hrs before the wedding) and I still hadn't gotten to hair and makeup (meanwhile everyone else was done), I said to him "please tell me other brides are like this and I'm not the only one" and his response was so nonchalantly, "what are you talking about? Everything is fine." I can't tell you how quiet the world got when he said that haha I was able to take a second and breathe and it really really helped to be met with a calm demeanor when I felt so much pressure from the time. Below, you'll notice a photo I added of my husband and I about to do our first dance and you can see David RIGHT THERE hand out to grab my bouquet for me!! I feel like it's such a great example of how accommodating and on top of everything he was.
He handled everything from start to finish and told us to remember to really soak it all in. This was really important as all of my married friends told me this too - it goes fast so just don't forget to take a moment to take it all in. David even pulled us aside to make sure we did which was extremely thoughtful.
At the end of the night we thought we had forgotten some things - but no, David had already packed it all back up and delivered it to our room!! He was on top of everything and anticipated our needs - made sure we had food and everything for cocktail hour during photos and all of our food was brought to the room after so we could eat after the wedding!
The reception setup was perfect!!! We had a polaroid guestbook and I wanted to keep it true to the aesthetic and I added some props and David did an excellent job setting it up -as well as setting the photo and memorial sections up for us!! I have included pictures of everything mentioned in this review! If we ever decide to renew our vows we will be seeking David out at the OMI again for sure! The food at the Grain House Restaurant is exceptional as well - so it's nice to know we can always go back there for a meal.
The honeymoon suite was also fantastic - it was so great that after we left and went on honeymoon to the Sagamore in Lake George - we missed our 3-room OMI Honeymoon suite and continued to talk about it. I highly recommend it. I also absolutely loved the get ready rooms in the Grain House - I'm a huge Period piece fan - Pride & Prejudice is my favorite and everything about the Grain House gave off Pride & Prejudice vibes. I also love History and the history of the Grain House is SO COOL!! I touched a 260-year old beam. This place has been around since the Revolutionary War!!! George Washington has ties here. I invite you to look into the history if you're a history lover, it was really a bonus on top of all of the other awesome things OMI has to offer. My wedding was everything I could have hoped for and more. The gardens were beautiful! I couldn't wait to take a photo there with my husband and as expected they came out perfect!! Such a romantic space/vibe! I will relive this day in my head over and over and remember it forever.
A huge shout out to the servers and bartenders and everyone else involved in setting everything up and keeping us fed! No one was without for even a second the entire night. We appreciate every single one of you and always will!!!!! -

Best wedding venue
My husband and I cannot say enough good things about The Olde Mill Inn. We are beyond thrilled and grateful that we were able to celebrate our wedding there. Every staff member was amazing and the ground are beautiful. The food was excellent. Our sales manager Kate was so organized and attentive, she made the process extremely easy. Our maitre D Marien was everything and more we could have ever asked for. Every request no matter how big or small she made sure it was taken care of. She was always extremely responsiveness and made wedding planning those last couple of months a breeze. One of our favorite things about the venue is that our dog was able to be apart of the wedding weekend and stay at the Inn in their pet friendly room. We couldn’t have been happier with our choice and would reccommend the Olde Mill Inn to every couple! Also if you can ask for Marien as your maitre d, please do! You won’t be disappointed! -

The Olde Mill Inn really takes care of everything. My husband and I were looking for a convenient, all-in-one venue that kept our family and friends comfortable and happy, and they delivered in spades! Everyone we worked with knew exactly what they were doing and helped guide us through moments of confusion. But while they’ve clearly done this before, we didn’t feel like we were forced into a one-size-fits-all solution - they were very accommodating of our quirks and preferences, including swapping craft beers onto the menu! We’d particularly recommend our maitre’d, John, who took care of everything day-of, not only overall logistics but also keeping us fed and watered and making sure our ceremony ran smoothly. Friends told us that our wedding ran like clockwork and John deserves the lion’s share of the credit. We’d highly recommend the Olde Mill Inn to couples who don’t want to stress about planning and just want to enjoy a wonderful wedding day. -

I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience with the Olde Mill Inn. I had my wedding on 5/20/2022 at the Grain House at the Olde Mill Inn. From the very first contact, I was amazed and impressed with how responsive and personable their sales team were. I never had to wait for information and everything was clear and detailed. The packages they offer are not only amazing, but a superb value. As the wedding drew nearer we were introduced to our maitre'd, who, in short, was a wonder. I honestly do not know how he organized and arranged everything that he did. He answered my myriad of questions in a prompt and clear manner. The venue itself is stunning and I loved that accommodations were on site. As someone with dietary issues I am so grateful for how my needs were met and never felt like a burden. If I could give more than 5 stars in every area I would.

She was so attentive, kind and answered every question. We would randomly have a question and she always replied promptly via email. David was our Maitre'D. He payed so much attention to detail that he came up with ideas that we did not even think of. He was always available to answer our questions via text. David made sure that our magical day ran smoothly and without any hiccups. The staff and atmosphere was absolutely amazing! We were so blown away by the kindness of David and everyone in the staff and how they made sure our families were well taken care of. David paid so much attention to our ideas and made sure we got exactly what we wanted. We had a lot of DIY decorations and we did not even have to worry about setting it up. David and the staff decorated everything for us and my wife and I were completely in awe when we walked in! It literally took our breath away! He even went out of his way to buy what we needed for signature drinks! During our perfect day David made sure that we had plates of food to eat, especially during the cocktail hour when we were mingling with our guests. Throughout the day he made sure that we were happy. Up until the start of our ceremony he eased and calmed our nerves and it all went so smoothly. David was so professional, patient and kind hearted! He was such a wonderful addition to our wedding day! The food was absolutely AMAZING, our guests can’t stop raving about how delicious it all was. Everyone also keeps talking about how absolutely gorgeous it all was including the fun pizza favors!! (DEFINITELY DO THAT). SHOUT OUT to Gloria for constantly asking us if we needed any refills. She also helped button up my wife’s dress bustle. We really wish we could go back and relive it. It was such a MAGICAL AND BEAUTIFUL DAY!

There is so much value for the price paid... you really get so much especially in comparison to other venues. From the complimentary food tastings, to the expert planning, to the provision of much needed and often forgotten things.
I was also given the best suite in the hotel; at no cost to me. I am so grateful to have found them. I really feel words are not enough. If you are looking for uniqueness, beauty and professionalism, the Olde Mill Inn is for you. -

My husband and I had our wedding (reception only) at the Olde Mill Inn ballroom on November 7, 2021. The cocktail hour and reception went so smoothly and was so beautiful! The staff was easy to work with from the very beginning in terms of choosing a date, packages, and coordinating services with our other vendors. Our guests raved about the food from cocktail hour through dessert. The venue space is just the right combination of elegance with rustic that made it feel so cozy and perfect for a fall wedding. We stayed at the inn on our wedding night and the rooms are spacious, clean, and comfortable just like the venue space; we were even upgraded to the suite as a nice surprise! We are so glad to see that David has so many rave reviews here already because he truly deserves it. He was always available for any questions through his cell phone, weather text or call. David was so flexible, organized, responsive, and reassuring the whole way through. He made sure we always had whatever we needed at our table throughout the reception, but never in a hovering or bothersome way. Your maître d’ can have a huge impact on your comfort and peace of mind leading up to and during your wedding day, and David absolutely made sure everything was perfect for us and our guests.

Outstanding
The Olde Mill Inn exceeded my expectations. David, the maitre'd, fulfilled all our of requests. We wanted to do something different as our wedding was on Halloween and record a "Twilight Zone" themed entrance video for our reception at the venue before the wedding and he delivered. My wedding was largely DIY with the decor and he did an amazing job setting everything up and my ballroom looked exactly how I envisioned it. It was raining prior to the start of my ceremony and David made sure to keep me calm and thankfully, the rain stopped just in time for the ceremony to start. The venue provided all my guests with umbrellas in the event that it would have continued to rain. The staff was wonderful in making sure everything went smoothly. Prior to the wedding day, Katie, who helped set up our contract was very responsive and would answer any questions I asked. The venue also provides an outstanding amount of food which all my guests stated was delicious. We also had our rehearsal dinner the day before at the Grain House located on property and their food was also delicious.
I can't say enough good things about them. -

Michael Sent on 10/01/2021Grateful for an unforgettable night
I have been with my now wife for almost 12 years and getting married wasn't something that I was extraordinarily excited about. I would think to myself, "it's expensive and is it really necessary?" Well.... The short answer to that is, yes! Mainly because of the Olde Mill Inn and David, our Maitre d'. Our wedding was initially postponed by a year due to the global pandemic. The venue navigated that effortlessly and rearranged everything without any hiccups. Fast forward one year... Our wedding was in 48 hours and a hurricane came along with some historic flooding in the area. The stress level endured at the time was unreal... Especially when I got a call, that the majority of the reception area we chose was flooded and destroyed. David, swept in with his calm, collective, and graceful self to reassure us that the party will go on. We were skeptical and nervous. We arrived and everything was different, nervous that our dream wouldn't come true. David painted an image of what it would be and my wife and I remained unsure... But what choice did we have? We trusted that David would make it work. He definitely did! Beyond any reasonable doubt, he pulled off a miracle. We had such an incredible wedding!! It will be something we remember our entire lives. Everything was beautiful, the food was phenomenal, and our guests were raving. One month later, guests are still reaching out to tell us how much fun they had. So thank you to the Olde Mill Inn... And thank you David, who puts the "d" into Maitre d'. If you choose this location for your wedding, the likelihood of you being happy, is incredibly high. Always select a place that thrives during time of adversity. -

Amanda Sent on 08/30/2021Best day weekend of our lives
I cannot begin to explain how choosing the Olde Mill Inn/ Grain House for our wedding was the best decision we ever made. We booked in March 2020, one week before the whole state shut down for Covid-19. Although we were worried at first and saw the horror stories about other venues during the early stages of the pandemic, Olde Mill Inn was extremely communicative and assured us they would do everything possible to accomodate us and make our day perfect. If it was for having them as our venue, I'm sure we would have panicked and tried to reschedule. We were lucky enough to keep our original date and got assigned an incredible Maitre D, Norm Martin, who made sure everything was perfect for us. We had a hurricane hit during our wedding day and had to do everything completely in doors in the hunt room, and while I was initially upset, they made it look so beautiful inside it didnt even matter, it ended up being the best thing for us as we got to enjoy the AC and I got to have my hair down :) We had our rehearsal dinner, lunch the day of through OMI as well as the private breakfast the following day, everything was delicious and ran smoothly. We were very impressed with the professionalism and organization on behalf of the Olde Mill Inn, no wedding is without its bumps/crazy moments throughout the day but Norm handled it all perfectly and was right there whenever we needed his help. We truly had the best weekend of our lives and Norm/ Olde Mill Inn/ Grain House event staff made sure everything was exactly how we wanted and then some. He even accomodated when my grandma needed a wheelchair two weeks before the wedding. The Grain House is a beautiful venue for an intimate reception where the bar/dancing has its own area seperate from the reception. It was awesome! It was like a rave by the bar and more relaxed in the dining space. The ability to have the rehearsal dinner, reception/ceremony and hotel all in one space was convenient and allowed for us to make our wedding day a wedding weekend. We really had the best time of our lives cannot thank Olde Mill Inn enough! -

Perfect venue for intimate wedding!
I got married at the Grain House at the Olde Mill Inn on July 31st. After losing our original venue to a closure, we were on a time crunch to find a new venue less than 5 months out from our wedding date. We found the Grain House and we knew it was the perfect choice! We had about 65 guests and the Hunt Room in the Grain House was the PERFECT size. We booked with Lindsay, who was extremeley helpful, responsive, and kind in all communications. Our maitre'd, David, went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was perfect! Leading up to the day he was always available to answer any of my questions, and on the day of he frequently checked in to make sure everything was running smoothly. The grounds are beautiful, the food is phenomenal, and you can't beat the convenience of having your hotel accommodations right there! Overall it was the best day ever and I can honestly say I'm glad we lost our original venue because now I can't imagine our wedding day taking place anywhere else! -

Jessica Sent on 08/14/2021It was literally the best day of our lives.
We got married at the Grain House at the Olde Mill Inn on 7/18 and it was perfect. We had about 50 people. David was our Matre D and he was INCREDIBLE. Everything was so well organized and every detail was tended to. He was pleasant and super professional. He was super on the ball. The wait staff was fabulous and super attentive. I had one table of very outgoing guests (lol) and the wait staff had a blast with them. And then the food was SO good. Way better than the tasting. To be honest, I had been nervous after the tasting as I thought the food was mediocre. But then again we had our tasting during COVID and I shook it off and chalked it up to that being the issue. Day of, food was OUTSTANDING. Lots of guests raved about it. During COVID the menu changed and it threw my husband and I for a loop. We were very nervous that they weren't going to be able to uphold their end, but everything worked out once restrictions were lifted. I think what it boiled down to was that no one knew what was going on with COVID and how to navigate it. It's been unprecedented times. So once they got their bearings, things got better. It was very easy doing business with the OMI. 10/10 recommend and would use them again! -

We were so pleased with our choice to have our wedding and reception at the Olde Mill Inn! We loved the courtyard area for our ceremony! All of the pictures taken out here came out amazing! Having hotels on site was a huge plus and allowed the party to continue after the reception. Guests raved about the food and venue as a whole! Everyone was so easy to work with, especially Kate & John! John was our maitre' d and exceeded our expectations! He was bending over backwards for us and our families all day/night. I cannot imagine our fairy tale wedding taking place anywhere but the Olde Mill Inn! -

Rohit Sent on 07/27/2021Outstanding Experience at the Olde Mill Inn
In January 2020, pre-COVID, we booked the OMI for a March 2021 wedding. We originally planned a Friday Catholic ceremony in Bernardsville with a reception at the Grain House (approx 150 guests), followed by a Saturday Indian ceremony in the OMI courtyard and a reception in the ballroom with outside Indian catering thereafter (approx 240 guests). Kate Rooney (aka SUPERSTAR) was our point of contact, gave us our tour, and was incredibly helpful in working out the contract/pricing details of the entire event (which was very fair and accommodating, since we wanted outside Indian catering for one of the nights).
Obviously, things changed quite a bit over the next 18 months. One thing that did not change, however, was how responsive, caring, and friendly Kate remained as we went from the precipice of cancellation to being able to have a safe event after postponing to July (we ended up with a 100% vaccinated rate, thankfully). We had a Thursday-Friday affair with the Indian/ballroom event on Thursday and the Grain House event on Friday, with about 170 invited guests to both days. The venue had no issues in reducing our guaranteed guest counts and changing the nature of the events as the restrictions loosened over time. Kate guided us through the entire process and the venue's flexibility allowed us to make as many changes as we needed.
We give this background to highlight that we had a complex event to begin with, and the pandemic obviously made planning incredibly challenging. Despite these challenges, Kate was there the whole way, helping us with every detail and ensuring the event proceeded exactly as we envisioned and in as safe a manner as possible.
We were then assigned John Lietz as our maitre d'. If we have one word to describe John, it is "hustle." We kept John extraordinarily busy with our complicated schedule over two days but he somehow kept it all together! He coordinated everything with our vendors leading up to and on the days of the events - we didn't hear a thing...which is exactly how it should be. Also, we have to give John big props for donning Indian clothes on our Hindu day - he looked great! John looked out for us (and our parents), making sure we were well fed and not over stressed. The two day event went off without a hitch - our guests raved about the venue and the service, and also gave us very positive reviews on the Grain House food selections. The outdoor setup at the Grain House was extremely well done, and our outdoor ceremony followed by reception in the ballroom was also very well laid out and seamlessly executed as we envisioned. We also had vendors bring in an Indian mandap for the courtyard Hindu wedding ceremony and a horse for our baraat, both of which the venue easily (and enthusiastically) accommodated. Our guests also gave very strong reviews of our mid-nuptial private breakfast that Kate helped us arrange.
Overall, we had an outstanding experience at the OMI. You may think they are a wedding factory because they host so many events, but the reality is that Kate, John, and the rest of the team really treated us like family throughout the entire process. The OMI is a quaint and historic style venue that suited our personality - you won't see high ceilings and brand new stainless steel fixtures, but you will get a lot of charm and will deal with a number of genuinely good people who care about your event. To us, we couldn't have asked for anything more than that, especially considering the pandemic variables that the OMI helped us successfully navigate.
We highly recommend the OMI for anyone seeking a wedding/event venue – we had a great time! Many thanks to Kate, John and the whole OMI team for a memorable wedding week! -

Cannot Say Enough Good Things about the Olde Mill Inn!
I cannot say enough amazing things about the Olde Mill Inn. Everyone that we worked with was absolutely outstanding and made sure we were well taken care of every step of the process. We were originally booked for July 4, 2020 and moved our wedding to June 12, 2021. They were very responsive throughout the whole process and extremely helpful as we switched our date. We worked with David who was an absolute rockstar! He was so attentive to everything - if someone handed me a card, he made sure it got onto the card table, he took the time to let us see the ballroom before everyone came in (which was such a special moment, the whole staff made sure my husband and I had plenty to eat and drink. There was an entire plate of appetizers on our table when we sat down to dinner in case we missed any during cocktail hour. We chose vendors (photographers, DJs) that were familiar with the Olde Mill Inn and David and all of our vendors worked so well together to make all the magic happen. The food was outstanding - everyone raved about the mac and cheese bar. They paid attention to every detail, brought smiles to our faces every step of the way... I seriously cannot thank them enough for making our day (and the whole wedding planning process) so perfect.

Dervela Sent on 06/29/2021Most accommodating venue during COVID
After several venue visits, my husband and I selected the Olde Mill Inn as our wedding venue. We loved the rustic charm of the venue, and how the accommodations are conveniently located right on site. We initially worked with the sales manager Kate, who was an absolute pleasure to work with. She provided great customer service and was extremely prompt, professional, friendly, and responsive. She helped us plan our wedding day and then postpone our wedding multiple times due to COVID. Kate and The Olde Mill Inn were extremely flexible and accommodating us during all the uncertainty and multiple postponements. Leading up to our wedding, we worked with David as our maitre’d, and he was equally amazing to work with. He walked us through every detail and helped bring our dream wedding to life. He consistently checked in with us during the day and made sure all our wants and needs were met. I would highly recommend Kate, David and the entire Olde Mill Inn staff for being so wonderful and accommodating. Our family, friends and guests all had an amazing time! -

If you’re looking for a fairy tale wedding book here! Marien, Kate, Gabriel, and the entire Olde Mill Inn staff helped bring our wedding vision to life. We started the planning process pre-covid and had to reschedule from our original date, both Marien and Kate were so helpful and answered every single one of my many questions. On the day of my wedding, Gabriel was looking after every single detail, there was absolutely nothing for me to worry about. He came over and checked in on my husband and I at various points throughout the day and made sure we had anything and everything we needed. The venue itself is gorgeous and the food is delicious! Thank you Olde Mill Inn! -

Lauren Sent on 11/22/2020Top notch venue
can not say enough good things about this venue. Planning a wedding can be stressful in itself, let alone planning one around this crazy time we are living in. But working with both Kate Rooney and our maitre D John Lietz, they made myself and my Mom feel at ease and they were so accommodating. John decorated The Grain House sooo beautifully!!! He and his team of servers are ON TOP of everything!! I never once had to ask for a drink or food...all of our guests raved about the service, food, and atmosphere. I can't stop thinking about how it was the best day ever!! Even one of the wait staff, I believe her name was Gloria, offered to bustle up my dress at cocktail hour and she did! The Grain House has such a unique, rustic, and romantic atmosphere different to the typical huge ballroom with chandeliers etc. which not only myself but our guests loved. There are so manh beautiful spaces outside for photos as well. I can't wait to get our professional photos back! I would highly recommend this venue to anyone and everyone looking for a beautiful venue with TOP NOTCH staff. -
