Amazing Venue!

Paige, Rose, and the entire team at Glen Ridge Country Club were amazing to work with! They listened closely to our vision and ensured every detail—from the extended cocktail hour to added hors d’oeuvres—was exactly what we wanted. The venue was absolutely beautiful, and our guests are still raving about the food. On the day of, Paige and her team handled everything flawlessly, allowing us to fully enjoy each moment without stress. We’re so happy we chose GRCC for our wedding—it was truly perfect!

Perfection!

The GlenRidge Country is an exceptional venue. There are truly not enough accolades. I have hosted a Bridal Shower Brunch in Sept. of 2017 AND a wedding on 11/15/19. It is beyond beautiful, with outstanding food , service. et al , but the #1 draw is clearly Rose Baez. The bar has been AND is set for another to even try and come up to her standards of excellence . Her professionalism is exceptional . It is ,however, her warmth and genuine caring for the people with whom she comes in contact that really tell the tale. I just love her!

Absolutely Amazing!!

The Glen Ridge Country Club is gorgeous, the service is incredible and the staff is professional and absolutely wonderful! We booked this venue early January for a May 2019 Wedding and totally pulled it off with the outstanding help of Rose Baez, Director of events and catering. She really goes above and beyond to make sure everything turns out the way you envision it. She is professional, always accommodating, responsive, compassionate, meticulous, organized and just a beautiful human all around! My bridal suite, ceremony and reception was beautiful and unforgettable, exceeded my expectations in every way and I will never forget it! Thanks Rose & everyone at The GRCC!!

Best Experience

This venue has so much to offer. I chose stations and it was the best thing I ever did. Rose Baez was what made my reception go so smoothly. She is the nicest woman and I hope to work with her again in the future. I highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a place to have their event.

Great experience with Glen Ridge Country Club

We recently had our wedding reception at Glen Ridge Country Club and it was exactly what we wanted. Rose Baez, the Club's events coordinator, was fabulous. She made the planning process easy, stress-free and fun. The Club is beautiful, (especially after its recent renovation), the food is excellent, and the service is terrific-we would highly recommend it!

GRCC is a beautiful venue, with a fabulous event coordinator, Rose, who takes care of your every need. Pre wedding, the bride's room is a must, with ample room for several girls, a long counter with mirror, lots of natural light, and privacy.
We did not have the ceremony there, but the bar area and dining area are lovely, and they open up to a covered deck area, overlooking the golf course and the NYC skyline. Fantastic view at night! Guests can move in and out freely, which makes for a great time. The food was excellent. We chose food stations over a plated seated dinner, with many options, and it made for a casual and fun arrangement. The staff couldn't be more friendly and accommodating. But most of all, Rose, is a gem. She can make your event anything you want it to be, and stays on top of everything. Seating can be changed, rearranged, etc. You are not locked into one format. You can make it your own. She will help you choose everything from the tablecloths to the food, making suggestions if you want them. You cannot go wrong here, and the price is right!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
