Best Decision Ever!

We came to BRCC with the idea that we wanted to do a quick elopement and then a luncheon with friends and family. As you can guess, we quickly changed our minds after working with Jessica - we ended up booking an entire day affair and it was the BEST decision we could have done. We also had our rehearsal dinner with Tavern XXVI on the patio the night before!

Although we planned our wedding in 9 months, Basking Ridge Country Club hit everything out of the park. They obviously helped us with so much, but what was even more important to us is that they treated our parents, grandmother and siblings like their own family, and checked in with them frequently to make sure they were okay, or to see if they needed anything throughout the weekend.

The food was awesome on both days of the weekend thanks to Chef Angel and Daniel - but we knew it would be amazing since we frequent the restaurant all the time.

If I could go over and do my wedding weekend again, I would choose Basking Ridge Country Club a million times over!

Where do I even begin? 10/10

My husband and I got married at Basking Ridge Country Club on October 6th, 2024. It was the most incredible day of our lives. From the start of our first meeting, I knew this was where I wanted to have our special day. Everything was beautifully modern, they'd recently renovated the indoor space and the grounds were exceptionally kept which were big selling points for us. We'd originally met with Stephanie who was very kind and professional. She answered all our questions and gave a tour of the venue. She explained all of the packages they offered and didn't make us feel any pressure to book with them, which made me want to book there ASAP. I ended up contacting her later that day to book just so I had time to think and they had our perfect date available so it truly worked out. Jessica, who ended up taking over for Stephanie was so accommodating and friendly. She was just as communicative and helped us plan the day down to the smallest details. She gave me peace of mind when I was worried that everything wouldn't go the way that I wanted. (The day was perfect)
The whole staff at Basking Ridge Country Club is wonderful. On your wedding day, they literally treat you like royalty to make sure you have the absolute best day of your life. They brought everything to us if we needed it, and checked in the whole day to make sure everything was running smoothly. I can honestly go on and on about why you should have your wedding here but nobody has time for that. If you're looking for a great venue with great packages/prices, amazing food, perfect staff, and picturesque views then this is your place. Thank you Jessica & the rest of the staff! You made our wedding day PERFECT!

Wedding Review

We had the most magical wedding reception at Basking Ridge Country Club! We are especially grateful to BRCC’s Wedding Coordinator, Stephanie, for helping every step of the way to bring our perfect day to life. She was a complete joy to work with, extremely prompt in response to all our questions, and invaluable in making our fall wedding vision a reality.

Our guests are still raving about our wedding from how it had the most impressive cocktail hour they have ever seen to the delicious entrees to the beautiful table settings and the jam packed dance floor all night. Did we mention the food was UNBELIEVABLE!? Our wedding day was an absolute dream. We hope all of our friends have their future weddings at BRCC so we can enjoy the magic again!

Incredible Wedding Venue

BRCC was amazing to work with, Stephanie was absolutely wonderful throughout the entire process. She worked so well with my mother and me from our first visit to my wedding day. All my guests still rave about the venue (but especially the cocktail hour food)! I cannot recommend BRCC enough.

Absolutely Incredible

I truly don’t have enough words to describe just how incredible our experience was with the Basking Ridge Country Club for our wedding. From the moment we met Stephanie when we toured the venue for the first time, we knew it was our place to get married. We had a 2 year engagement, so we had A LOT of interactions & questions with mostly Stephanie, (and Jessica when Stephanie wasn’t available). Every time we spoke to her we felt reassured and a sense of calm that can’t be explained. Anything we went to her with, whether it was a concern, question, request, anything - she was cool calm and collected. She made every effort to make sure our day was as perfect as it turned out to be - and she beyond succeeded. You can tell that Stephanie truly loves what she does, and that this is her passion. Her attention to detail is amazing. She truly feels like family to us after all of this planning & our beautiful day.
As far as the country club - it’s stunning. We fell in love with it before the renovations, and after the interior was redone - we still absolutely loved it. The scenery and grounds outside are breathtaking- no matter what time of year. The food is absolutely out of this world. All of our guests had nothing but great things to say about both the quality and quantity of everything from our cocktail hour, to dinner, to our cake (they work with Calandras Bakery - and this is enough to use them as a venue all on its own!) The staff who worked our wedding (servers, bartenders, etc.) were the kindest, most attentive people I’ve ever met. They made sure not only my husband and I were taken care of, but every single one of our 120 guests. Menz the maître d was constantly checking in with us to make sure we were ok and if we needed anything. They also all worked so well with all of our vendors from florist to photographer to DJ - it was truly the best day of our lives. If we had to do it again, we would 100% go to BRCC all over again. Stephanie & everyone else - we cannot thank you enough. This day wouldn’t have been what it was without you all!

Magnificent!

Stephanie and the entire staff at Basking Ridge Country Club did an outstanding job of making my husbands and my wedding dreams come true. From the second we first visited the venue we knew this was where we’d get married. The warmth & genuine kindness that we received during the entire planning process is undeniable. Not one detail was missed, and thanks to everyone involved, we had an amazing night with everyone we love! Thanks again, BRCC, we will be sure to visit soon!

Perfect from start to finish!

Our wedding was absolutely perfect thanks to the BRCC and their amazing coordinator, Stephanie, and her colleague, Jessica! When I got engaged, I narrowed down my search to 9 venues and scheduled tours for 6. BRCC was the first venue I saw and after the tour, I canceled the rest of them. I knew I wanted something classic, modern, and elegant and the BRCC was that and more! After we signed the contract, they renovated and now have beautiful wooden floors and neutral colors throughout, which matched the aesthetic of my wedding. Stephanie was easy to work with, always answering my emails in a timely manner. She took care of us at our menu tasting, led the rehearsal, and was on top of everything on the day of. Our ceremony was outside on the golf course. Everyone kept saying how gorgeous and open the cocktail hour area was and how delicious the food was. The staff, in particular the bartenders, were fabulous as well. The BRCC is a hidden gem that I would highly recommend for future brides!

You can’t beat the service!

Absolutely fantastic wedding venue. From start to finish over 2 years, Stephanie was amazing. The venue was beautiful for a summer wedding outside by the tent, and then we moved inside for the reception. The staff was all very attentive, and the food was AMAZING! We did a brunch and absolutely loved everything served. A truly amazing wedding venue that we would recommend to anyone!

Wonderful experience!

My husband and I are so happy that we chose this venue. The pictures came out beautiful, the food was so delicious, and the set up was amazing. Jessica Quesada helped us every step of the way and also went above and beyond when it came to our decoration set up which she helped us with. The servers made sure that our guests were taken care of and even the servers assigned to us were making sure that our food was served warm. I would highly recommend this venue for couples looking for a place to celebrate the first night of their lives together.
