The Frungillos are simply the best!

I cannot put into words what the Frungillo family did for us for our wedding day. We booked the Inn at Millrace Pond when the barn house was still a concrete slab - just to show the trust we have in them. From the walkthrough and planning process with Michelle and Robert, to the day of with Gerry and Linda, everything was spectacular. Upon entering, our guests were greeting with espresso martini or champagne shooters which were delicious. Not only that, our guests could not stop raving about the food. The fresh mozz station was a hit, and our pasta and Tuscan stations were top notch. To top it all off, everyone’s filet (their top dish) was cooked to perfection. Some people even ate their table’s leftovers it was that good! We even had an afterparty at the gristmill… and you already know by this point how that went. All of our guests stayed at the venue in the multiple rooms they have to offer and we were able to have a brunch the next day to recap all the memories from the night before. I wouldn’t have booked my wedding with anyone else but the Frungillo’s. They’re not just your friends, they’re family. Thank you thank you!!

dream wedding

Our dream wedding on was made possible by Michelle and the exceptional team at the Inn. Michelle guided us through the planning process with great attention to detail and promptly addressed all of our questions. Tracey and Leah ensured that our special day ran seamlessly along with their impeccable team. The outstanding food is still a topic of conversation among our guests! We wish we could keep reliving our wedding day over and over again.

The Inn at Millrace Pond- The PERFECT wedding venue!!

Where do I even begin? The Inn at Millrace Pond is the perfect wedding venue in New Jersey. If you are looking for an all-inclusive venue and personalized experience from catering, to accommodations- you NEED to check out the inn! You get the entire property to yourself the day and night of your wedding, and there are so many unique spaces! They recently built a brand new reception barn and a cocktail hour space which are absolutely gorgeous. This venue is super charming and historic, but has been refurbished with modern touches and feels like you are stepping into another world for the day of your wedding, away from the stresses of modern life. It is so peaceful in the quaint little town of Hope, NJ. Michelle, the sales manager was beyond helpful throughout the whole planning process, and the day-of staff blew our expectations out of the water with their attentiveness to detail and help throughout the day. The innkeeper, Tricia charmed all of our guests with her kind and uplifting spirit and, along with Keri and my bridal attendant and Tracey, helped me and my girls with our requests all day long- they even took candid photos throughout the day and sent them to me which was incredible! Our maître d' Linda was absolutely incredible and made sure the ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and after party all flowed seamlessly. Even when we had to move our ceremony inside at the last minute due to rain, the team went above and beyond to ensure that it was beautiful (and the reception barn fireplace/mantle gives such a beautiful indoor ceremony space backdrop, I would do it all over again!) The food was incredible- our guests are still raving! I cannot recommend this venue enough!
