If you are looking for a venue with character and beauty, Prallsville Mills is it! Cynthia is the Event Coordinator for the site and she was so helpful through the entire process. We knew as soon as we went out to visit the Mills that it had to be our venue. There are multiple options on site for ceremony location and reception location, so you can customize your experience. Cynthia was there for us every step of the way with helpful suggestions and ideas to make our day perfect. All of our guests loved the look of the buildings, and our photographers were beyond thrilled to have so much to work with. There were so many opportunities for amazing shots because every part of the location is gorgeous. We did very minimal decorating to really let the character of the Mills come through, and it really was an ideal location. Rustic and elegant - we absolutely loved it!

This was our dream venue for years. You get the whole farm to yourself for the weekend. No other weddings but yours! Friday for setup and rehearsal, Saturday for the wedding and Sunday for clean-up. Not only are there cute llamas, but they are also dog friendly. When we finally booked it almost 7 years later, Amy and Brent were so welcoming, helpful and professional the entire time. We wanted our pomeranian to be our ring bearer, and they made it happen. Dogs are allowed for the ceremony, so we had a close friend bring him to and from our hotel. (New Hope Inn & Suites) They always sent friendly reminders on what was left to plan, sent us a 3D layout of our vision, and always gave the best advice. When we mentioned a bubble send off, they recommended bubble guns right away. They work so much better than wands! On the day of, both Amy and Brent were so supportive. Everything ran smoothly because they were coordinating with the other vendors. Amy stood up for me and always reminded me it was our special day, so we should have it the way we want. She helped me get my cathedral veil on properly and even saved my dress when the snaps on it broke! All of our guests were raving that they had such an amazing time. They all had a blast feeding the llamas. Pictures provided are all from my friends and family, they enjoyed every minute. This hard-working couple made our dreams come true!! Thank you for the best wedding day ever!!!

We had an incredible wedding at Updike Farmstead, there are so many lovely elements of this venue. The facilities are excellent, the venue coordinators are helpful and organized and the venue itself is beautiful and intimate yet spacious due to the grounds.

Sterlingbrook Farms was the only venue I looked at. I found them on Wedding Wire and immediately booked a tour. I fell in love the moment I saw it. It was exactly what I was looking for as a rustic country animal loving gal. We booked with them right after our engagement and had our wedding 2 years later. Over 2 years, Jonas and Nicole were there every second to answer any questions I had and accommodated to my many returns to see the barn over 2 years. We used all of their suggested vendors and couldn’t be any happier that we did. Carolyn (Gather Studio Florist) Micah (Allview Cinema&Photography) Edgar&Brian (Edgar Music Entertainment) It made the planning and the day flow so much smoother and made it so less stressful. They were all amazing and have done so many weddings there before. They let us decorate and set up the barn as we wanted to make it feel right at home. Nicole was able to get us a tent last minute so we could still have the ceremony outside even though it was a dreary, rainy day. As wedding day approached, they set us up with Jenn who Helped run the show. Jenn made us an out of this world Cinnabon cake. And not to mention Jenn was by our side making sure everything was on time and ensured that we glued our butts to our chairs to eat and enjoy the amazing food. Jenn was so incredible and really made the day perfect for us. Every single one of our guests wouldn’t stop talking about how great the barn was and the horses, even with a total wash out of a rain on our wedding day. Everything was so amazing and so beautiful, I honestly forgot it was even cold and rainy outside and it’s all thanks to the team at Sterlingbrook Farms for making it all happen and staying totally calm cool and collective during it. Thank you thank you Sterlingbrook, you guys are absolutely the best venue out there!

Old village farm was such a fantastic wedding venue. The setting was wonderfully rustic, and so very gorgeous. Eric and the team were great to work with. They were so friendly, hospitable and accommodating. I would highly recommend this venue, I’m so happy we went with it!

Had my wedding reception here on 10/18/25 and all I can say is WOW. While this isn't your "typical" wedding venue they knocked everything out of the park for us. We started planning a year ago and Dana, the sales manager was so kind. Then closer to the event we worked closely with Cindy, the owner. Cindy put SO MUCH care and effort into our event and made us feel like we were part of her family. Our maitre d, Bernard, is one of the greatest people in hospitality I have ever met in my life. He made sure my bridal party and vendors had everything they could possibly need within seconds. He also made sure all of our guests had a pleasant experience, AND helped with clean up at the end of the night which was unexpected and so kind. Now food and drinks, we did a buffet and open bar with passed o'dourves, our guests are still raving about the food! How many times have you been to a wedding and actually enjoyed the food!? The bartender, can't remember his name, was also amazing. He was funny and matched our guests energy perfectly. This place is a GEM in the central NJ wedding scene and is perfect for anyone looking to have an event with under 100 people. 10/10 couldn't recommend more.

Five birds farm made our big day feel seamless. Every guest has said this wedding was the best they have been to. They were on top of our vendors there vendors witch made our last minute worry’s disappear. All that with a family vibe. We can’t wait to have another event here. Anah and her husband are taking this place to the next level. It is not just a cozy rustic barn yard vibe it now has a modern updated design/look to it as well. The bartender and staff were on top of there game and were very professional and quick.

My husband and I are so happy that we chose Byron Barn for our wedding venue. From the second we walked into the lounge, we knew that Byron was the place for us. Corinne is such a wonderful person and was a true pleasure to work with. Her creative and caring spirit made us feel so at home in the venue. This is such a special venue filled with so much care and love.

By the end of the night, my new husband and I had already heard from many guests that ours was the best wedding they'd ever attended. It wasn't the biggest (50 people), and was far from the flashiest. But it featured alpacas, which was a huge hit despite the chilly temperatures. It takes a lot of coordination and flexibility to pull off a wedding with many moving parts, but Nick and Melissa, the recommended wedding planner, kept things running smoothly until the very end. The beauty of this venue is that it's a blank canvas that can be personalized down to the finest details. We even purchased plush alpacas from the on-site store and used them as centerpieces, which was a huge hit. If you want a small wedding in a beautiful location, surrounded by alpacas, it's hard to beat this venue.
