I was a quest at the wedding and i can say this was truely the best reception I've been to, The food was fantastic (seasoned)and tasty.
The service was excellent (no complaints). The staff was polite and friendly.
EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT.

I love Villari's as a place to come for a good night dinner. But I now love them for their place to hold a reception. The room we used was the best for our amount of guests and the dance floor was a great size and gave the children enough room to run around and dance without knocking into the adults who wanted to dance. The buffet was really good, the lady who seemed to be the host was a little pushy with getting dinner started while we waited for the guests to arrive. But everything else was immaculate.

My wedding was worry free, Thanks to Villari's!

My husband & I selected Villari's Lakeside as the ceremony site (only) for our special wedding day, and we could not have been more pleased! The price we paid was unbelievably great ($500 for a 1hr. ceremony that included decorations, chair set-up, etc.). After visiting various other locations in south Jersey, there was no other business that could compare in price to what Villari's had to offer while at the same time provide such a tranquil, peaceful setting for the outdoor wedding ceremony we desired. I think one of the coolest things is my chosen color scheme was ivory, lavender, & lilac, and even though the owner advised that the decorations are solely in white, Villari's pleasantly surprised me on my wedding day by decorating the outdoor lamp posts in beautiful lavender tulle! It coordinated perfectly w/ my bridesmaid's dresses. It could have been any shade of purple, but they cared enough to find the right shade. Also, even though the ceremony was slightly tardy or past the 1hr. timeframe, Villari's allowed us extra time w/out any hassle or w/out charging us any add'l fees. This is a perfect example of a business that cares more about pleasing its customers than trying to make a quick buck. I have many friends who are planning to get married and I always highly recommend Villari's as well as Summit Catering b/c of the exceptional quality service they gave me & my husband. Therefore, I give the same high recommendation to anyone who is looking to marry at Villari's, a beautiful location where people care in making your special day most memorable at an affordable price. By the way, the owner treated us to drinks on the house when we first met him (now that was cool)! :)

Our wedding was absolutely beautiful! We had the ceremony outside by the lake. The natural beauty of the surroundings helped us save money on decorations. The outdoor speakers allowed everyone to hear our vows. It was a little tricky because the "aisle" was steps, so the whole wedding party had a fear of falling down the steps. The steps also cause a lot of the people to have their heads down when walking down, so some of the pictures weren't so great.
The location was good, and pretty easy for everyone to find. It was nice to have our ceremony and reception at the same place.
The food was excellent, especially the appetizers. Villari's has a great menu selection. We decided to do buffet style and we liked the variety of food we got to choose from.
We used the in-house DJ and they played the right style of music at the right times. When I wanted them to step it up a bit and play some good dance music they complied right away, and it was perfect. They kept the party going all night long.
Overall we were very happy.
