My daughter's wedding 7/9/22

As the father of the bride I had extremely high expectations and Jeff and the staff at Farrington DID NOT DISAPOINT. From the first meeting together to discuss our wants and needs until we walked out the door day of wedding our experience was first class. I could call Jeff at any moment with confidence. The venue was beautiful. The cocktail hour was first class ; second to none , food deliciuos and the service and staff were impeccable . We set out to make our daughter's princess for a day dream come true and The Estate made it happen. We had a superior turnout and my phone has not stopped ringing . Ty so much Jeff , Katie , Randy and the entire Farrington staff. We will not hesitate to return.

Smooth and Stunning

This venue has it all. The food is endless. The outdoors is stunning our photographers had a blast with so many options. The interior is very cool and where we sat had a waterfall behind us. Syed helped us every step of the way. He will tell you all the tricks of the trade and never once tries to get more money out of you ( like most places) the food was amazing Gus made everything perfect. The goal of this venue is to make your wedding all you ever dreamed about. Which they killed it with mine. Check them out words can’t even describe just how amazing this place truely is. And super affordable ;)

Our dream wedding come true!

The Estate at Farrington Lake was more than we could have imagined for our wedding. Unfortunately, we had to postpone due to COVID and Syed and his team were nothing but professional, supportive and flexible throughout the entire process. We got married at a church, but were able to use the on site bridal suite to relax before the reception between taking photos on the absolutely immaculate grounds. We absolutely love how our guests had plenty of space to move from inside to the two outdoor patios. This venue is the best of both worlds with a ballroom on a beautiful scenic lake! Syed and his team set up the space exactly how we envisioned it and even filled our sweetheart table with all of the food so we didn't have to lift a finger. We are so happy we listened to Syed and went with a cocktail reception which allowed for us to enjoy the most out of our time and did not waste any time waiting for food to be served to our 150 guests. We had everything from pirogies and sushi to roast pork and sautéed chicken, not to mention the plethora of desserts - all of it was delicious! Syed is incredibly knowledgeable and so good at what he does - the entire team listens to each couple's individual needs and never pushed anything on us we didn't want while knowing exactly what we needed to do to have the wedding of our dreams. Three weeks later and all of our guests are still raving about how great of a wedding it was, how beautiful of a space the Estate has, and how they can't wait to recommend this place to everyone they know. Book your wedding here, you truly won't regret it!

Exceptional

We had our son and daughter-in-law's wedding at The Estate at Farrington Lakes on July 17, 2021.
It was incredible. It exceeded our expectations. Dealing with Syed was a pleasure. He listened to what the kids wanted for their special day and he delivered that and so much more. The light show, the grounds, the venue, the food from hors d' oeuvres ,to the many food stations, to the spectacular desserts exceeded our expectations. The guests were raving about what a hidden gem this was and how they were going to recommend it to all of their friends. We are still receiving phone calls about what a spectacular wedding it was and how impressed they were with the venue. Syed and the team was a pleasure to work with and made this a dream wedding for the bride and groom. We can't thank him enough for his attention to detail.

Everything we dreamed of and so much more!!!

Oh my God I have so many amazing things to say about this place!! It was an absolute dream come true (we already want to plan our vow renewal lol). This venue was everything we envisioned for our wedding! The minute my husband and I finished touring the place we both looked at each other and said “this is it!!!!” The grounds are gorgeous and maintained very well! We loved being near the lake and all the tall trees, there’s just so many opportunities for pictures! There’s also a bridal suite that’s on site! They made it so that although it’s one suite you can have the bridesmaids on one side and the groomsmen on the other without ever seeing each other. It made things so much easier being able to do everything there. Now onto the food portion of my review, my husband and I are complete foodies! So the food being top notch was extremely high on our list of MUST haves (because our families know we love to eat so we HAD to have a place with amazing food). Now don’t get me started on the tasting!!! The tasting alone was INSANE!!! We were literally expecting small little portions of a variety of food but instead they brought out full size meals of everything lol. We were sold!!! It was just myself, my mom, stepdad, my husband, and his mom, no one else was there so it was super intimate and the chef was cooking just for us. Chef Gus is so incredibly talented let me tell you! The manager Syed is amazing! He’s hilarious, professional, and wears the best cologne lol! He was literally a God send throughout this pandemic! Our original date was Friday, 6/12 and after 2 postponements we ended up with our new date being 7/3/21 and it was now a Saturday wedding. He was amazing to work with throughout such a crazy time. Syed and his wife Nikki are true professionals and their attention to detail is immaculate!! They make a wonderful team! Not only is Syed in charge but he was hands on in every aspect of our wedding! All of my guests were so impressed with him. He can walk the walk and talk the talk. He made sure our sweetheart table was covered in food from every single station (big portions too)! My guests are still raving about how amazing the food was and how courteous and detail oriented his staff was! They made everyone feel at home! I promise you will not be disappointed with this place at all!! We literally had the wedding of the century and it will be one that no one will ever forget!! Mission accomplished!

The most amazing day! 7/24/2021

From the moment we met with Syed at our first visit at the Estate we knew we were making the right decision to have our wedding there! He and his wife are the true definition of professionalism. They were available any day at anytime to answer even the smallest question. We did not know what to expect during a pandemic but Syed assured us no matter what restrictions may be in place (luckily none by the time we made it to our big day) that it would be everything we hoped it would be and he was right. To be honest, his staff and he exceeded our expectations. From the beautiful setting, to the cocktail hour and reception, it was more than we dreamed for our wedding. Our guests raved about the grounds, the ball room and the food. The Estate is a hidden gem and I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for the perfect place to have their wedding. We can not be more thankful and hope to have the pleasure of attending another event at the Estate!

Best team, most amazing wedding!!

Syed and the Estate at Farrington Lake team are THE BEST. We booked in September 2020 for a July 2021 wedding, not knowing what the State of NJ rules & policies would be. Syed was so helpful during the whole process, answering all of our questions and keeping us up to date. Any time I had a question he was available and more than happy to help. The venue is also such a hidden gem, the most gorgeous grounds with a beautiful ballroom and bar with windows that allow you to appreciate the whole estate. Our guests raved about the food & cocktail hour, and the day went seamlessly with Syed and his staff running the show. Would recommend 100000%! Thank you Syed & team!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
