Beautiful venue space and wonderful team to work with!
SO incredibly happy that we chose Stone House (The Lodge) as our wedding venue - our day was perfect and went so smoothly with the help from every single person on their team! Michelle Ross was our event stylist and she truly made sure that our day was everything we wanted it to be! Every little specific request that we had told her she made sure happened and she was so wonderful and personable to work with. On the day of, our maitre D (Frank Jr) and bridal attendant (Melina) were so attentive and checked in with us and my parents throughout the night for anything we needed. They had a spread of each appetizer food and our signature drinks waiting for us in our bridal suite right after the ceremony, and made sure we got to try a little of everything - even each dessert! Our guests really loved the quality and amount of all of the food/drink options, and the bartenders/wait staff were very kind towards everyone! -

We had the wedding of our dreams and I believe we owe that all to Stone House. We started our planning and of the 8 venues we toured, they were our favorite. They checked all the boxes, beautiful space, and an all-inclusive nature that meant they would be able to help us manage all the details without needing a dedicated wedding planner.
The staff are top notch. Sarah Gore helped us plan every detail prior, making sure that we knew the space, the food, the bar, the aesthetic and giving us recommendations for the vendors that they didn’t include.
Frank was our maitre d and managed every staff member and took care of every need our day of on site. His energy and presence actually allowed for us to not worry about any detail. The waitstaff, bartenders, and other staff took care of every single guest.
The food. The food. The food. There was SO MUCH food and it was so good. Every single guest told us that it was the best wedding food they ever had and it was. The chef made sure that we had the food that we wanted, the way we wanted and that every single guest was taken care of.
If you are on the fence, go to the venue, have brunch at the restaurant and you will get a sense of the experience that you will have. TOP notch and would recommend to any couple looking to get married in the tri-state area

We cannot believe it has been two months since the wedding!
We wanted to sincerely thank you everyone at The Stone House, for being absolutely incredible and such an integral part of our wedding day. From the moment we walked in to see the venue about a year and a half ago to the actual special day, Sarah and everyone at The Stone House were absolutely wonderful to us.
We wanted to extend our gratitude to the staff that helped the day of the event, to Sarah our Event stylist, to Frank our Maitre'd, to Mercedes our bridal attendant and every single waitstaff and bartender that made our night special, without You all the magic would have not been the same.
Our Family, friends, Co-Workers and even the Industry Partners that were at the wedding cannot express enough how good the service and food were for the event and they still complimenting everything about the Venue, and that is all thanks to You and your Team.
We recommend highly The Stone House!!! -

Magical Day at Stone House
Where do I begin with our incredible wedding day at Stone House at Stirling Ridge, held in April 2023. Our stylist was Sarah and from our very first meeting, she was so amazing to work with and we immediately felt at ease. I felt like I had known Sarah my whole life! She was consistently communicative, friendly, supportive, professional, and helpful in planning our wedding. Sarah was communicative throughout the wedding planning process, and with her help we were able to plan our wedding in just 8 months. She kept us on track with planning and knew just what to say to ease my nerves the days leading up to the wedding. We decided to get married on the ballroom side, knowing it was April and with the chance of rain, the covered outdoor area for the ceremony was perfect. In true April fashion, it rained the entire wedding weekend. As it turns out, I was pleasantly surprised to see how serene and beautiful the outdoor ceremony space was in the rain. The colorful greenery surrounding it, full of love and support from our guests, felt like we were in a tranquil rainforest. We unfortunately did not get many pictures of us around the grounds, but it did not matter. The ballroom has beautiful lighting and is a larger space, with plenty of room for our 150 guests. The chandeliers are stunning and are the highlight of many of our reception photos.
We loved the European vibe of the cocktail hour space, with lots of wood and darker colors.
The food was beyond excellent. The guests were raving about all of the food, from the cocktail hour to dinner to dessert. The hospitality and customer service, including everyone from Sarah, to our maitre-d’ Frank, were so on top of being supportive and magically made the day go as smoothly as possible. Our guests were beyond impressed and in love with the venue (as were we since the day we toured the venue). Our wedding day was a dream, all thanks to Stone House!

Absolutely Perfect
From the minute we toured the Stone House to the day after the wedding we were absolutely thrilled with our experience. They truly think of everything. Michelle was SO incredibly helpful and responsive! She helped make planning and coordinating a breeze and also made every event leading up to the wedding (tasting, details meeting, etc.) feel special.
The room was stunning, food was incredible, and everyone loved the smores station and passed desserts. Another wonderful touch is that we got to pick up everything the day after the wedding so we didn't need to worry about packing cars at the end of the night. Our guests had a wonderful time and so did we! -

I was a guest at my niece’s wedding last weekend. I was also officiating and quite nervous. All the staff, especially Raoul were so patient and professional answering all my nervous questions. The ceremony went off perfect and our whole family enjoyed an amazing reception with delicious food, stellar service and the prettiest venue both inside and outside. -

Courtney K. Sent on 04/15/2023Incredible Vendor, Staff & Experience!
My husband and I were married at the Stone House (the Lodge) in October 2023, and truly could not have had a more perfect experience. Our main contact, Sarah, felt like one of our best friends by the end of the process. Every staff member who helped plan or work our wedding was kind, thoughtful, creative and expressed the most joy for us.
A few particulars:
*The food: Absolutely delicious! People were still talking about their meals a few months later. What's more, since it's a full service restaurant, you don't have to ask your guests to order ahead of time.
*The venue: Rustic, elegant, beautiful....you can put your own stamp on it, or leave as is. Truly, we couldn't have asked for a more perfect setting.
*The staff: Again, I can't describe how incredible the staff at Stone House are. They truly thought of everything, and were able to turn our ceremony into a reception hall in under 20 minutes.
If you're looking for a terrific wedding venue, Stone House is it! -

Best Wedding Ever!
We chose Stone House for our ceremony and reception. Working with our coordinator Carissa was so awesome. She had every detail down! Everyone at SH was so professional and fun to work with, the food was amazing, and the lodge was so magical. It's so beautiful in the snow, so def consider SH for a winter wedding -

Words can't even describe how special this venue felt on our wedding day! I had my eye on Stone House for a while, but once we visited and saw their Lodge space, it was an instant yes. The room has the perfect combination of a modern feel that still has a cozy charm to it. The fireplace as a focal point for our ceremony was BEAUTIFUL.
Now for the team - what an amazing group of individuals. Nicole you were a ~blessing~ to work with!! Frank & Mercedes - you made our day feel so special. You made us feel like the most special people in the world! Thank you all for making our vision come to life. We loved every single second of our experience from the AMAZING FOOD (WOW!) to the romantic atmosphere to the service - 100000/10.
Lastly - this team went above & beyond for us. When I got COVID the week of our menu tasting/Thanksgiving, the restaurant comped 2 full Thanksgiving day meals for myself and my husband....beyond thankful for that gesture!
if you're thinking about working with Stone House - do it. The food, service, and atmosphere are worth it! -

This won't surprise you, but this place is perfect!
If you want to feel taken care of by top tier professionals, this is the wedding venue for you. I work in event logistics and all I wanted was to feel off the clock for my wedding day, after our first meeting with Sarah Gore at Stone House we knew it was the place. I felt like if there was anyone that would make me feel like I did not have to worry about a thing, it was her. Our wedding was at The Lodge on a stunning fall day this past October and even if the weather did not show up for us that day it would be been perfect heavily due to the team at stone house. The food, the professionalism, the attention to every little detail...when people tell us it was the best wedding they have ever been to I don't think they are just being nice because of our own experience with this venue being beyond our expectations. Mercedes was running the show for us on the night and she is an absolute dream, kept us all on time with such a great spirit and energy. It was the dreamiest day and no one should second guess booking this place, just do it you won't regret it. -

I could not have been happier to have my wedding at Stone House. The venue is beautiful, the food is AMAZING and the staff is wonderful to work with. We had to move our wedding from November 2020 to August 2021 and they made the process painless. They really have the couples best interest rather than their own in mind. Carissa was awesome to work with. She is extremely responsive and answered all of my questions (there were many lol) and made me feel extremely at ease. Frank, the maitre'd was also amazing. He made the day of process so easy and I didn't have to worry about anything. I also had two bridal attendants the day of the wedding and they were so helpful and attentive. As a venue, its beautiful and what's great is the food is actually delicious. I would 100% recommend getting married here! -

Perfect Day at the Stone House - Amazing Food & Service!
We had our wedding reception at Stone House in august and it was absolutely perfect! Between how well Carissa cared for us throughout the planning process, particularly with my never ending questions and concerns with COVID, to how amazing Frank the Maitre'd was for the actually day - we are so happy with our decision to use Stone House. Our guests are still talking about how incredible the food and service was. We had a few 'odd' requests and Carissa and the entire team bent over backwards to make sure the day was exactly what we envisioned. Good food was a priority for us when picking the venue and Stone House did not disappoint. Can't recommend enough, they really made us and our guests feel special!! -

Linet B. Sent on 06/01/2021Modern, elegant, professional (and good food!)
There's so much to say about Stone House! Overall we had a great experience working with the Stone House. My husband and I were looking for a venue that felt modern and a bit different than what we were used to seeing in NJ. We went to Stone House and really loved the look and feel of it—modern/contemporary, a little bit rustic, elegant. They do a good job at blending all those elements. Our coordinator Carissa was soooo sweet and super helpful from the very beginning. Our wedding was originally scheduled for June 2020, but got rescheduled to April 2021 due to the pandemic. [Specifically regarding rescheduling: My personal experience went as smooth as I thought it could have possibly gone. We had to wait a bit to be allowed to reschedule, but it was understandable given the CDC and state-level guidance at the time. We were nervous about the potential outcomes, but made sure to start having transparent conversations with Carissa as early as possible and even put a soft hold on a new date until we were given the green light to reschedule. We are thankful we were able to reschedule smoothly.] Planning the details with Carissa was so easy, you can tell they run a tight ship! They were able to accommodate some special requests we had, which helped make our event feel custom to us. The food was really good! The only constructive feedback on cocktail hour was that some of the guests who were in the downstairs section of cocktail hour (we had our event in the Lodge), didn't get some of the passed hors d'ouvres because the servers kept circulating upstairs (we had similar feedback on the passed desserts at the end of the night). But overall, the feedback we got from guests on the venue, food, and general experience was very positive. The reception food was great, especially the salmon. My husband is lactose intolerant and they were able to whip him up a dairy-free filet minion right away when we flagged it. Mercedes was our Maitre D and she was awesome!! So buttoned up while having the best spirit. It was so fun to work with her. My husband and I were really well taken care of. As I mentioned, we had passed desserts at the end of the night along with our wedding cake, and the chocolate chip cookie was SO good. It's worth mentioning. To summarize, if you're looking for a modern, elegant, delicious, (and organized!) wedding, look no further than Stone House. -

As soon as we walked into Stone House we knew we were going to have our wedding there. The atmosphere was perfect, the food was delicious and the staff was so incredibly helpful and accommodating! Our venue coordinator Carissa was so great throughout the planning process and was always there to answer anything we needed. We had to reschedule our wedding due to COVID-19 and it was truly the easiest process imaginable. Carissa seamlessly found us another Saturday evening just a few months later. Day-of, our maitre d Frank and bridal attendant Gabby were also wonderful and made sure our night was nothing short of amazing! Can't recommend enough, our guests have not stopped talking about the night! -

The Grand Ballroom at the StoneHouse
Our wedding day could not have been more magical! We were surrounded by family and friends, we had perfect weather, of course--each other, and our team at the StoneHouse. Bonnie was fantastic and went above and beyond throughout the planning process. She listened to what we wanted and was able to make our vision become a reality. We met Frank a few times over the course of our planning and we knew he was amazing, but our wedding day couldn't have gone more perfectly and we have to thank Frank for that! Frank's attention to detail and genuine concern for us and our guests meant the world to us. Stephanie was also an integral part of our day. As our bridal attendant, she helped with everything from bustling, to food and drink, and even helping with a "catastrophic" spill on my wedding dress! Stephanie made a point to ensure that my husband and I had time to freshen up and eat something before our party. We sat up in the bridal loft with a buffet of appetizers, drinks, and water, looking down at our guests mingling at the cocktail hour below. Looking back, it was one of our favorite moments of the night--we had a few minutes of quiet time together to (try to) soak it all in, we were fed, and after 15 minutes or so, we were ready to party! The staff at the StoneHouse took so much care in every detail and found a perfect balance between honoring our requests and offering suggestions as needed. During an inevitably stressful process, we never doubted our team at the StoneHouse. Even more so, we are so excited to be able to return to the restaurant area for celebrations to come, and in an effort to relive the best day ever! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU, to the entire staff! -

Perfection
I had my wedding reception at Stone House and had the absolute best experience. Everything from the food to the staff was outstanding. They were also extremely responsive and helpful with having to postpone our original date due to the pandemic. I would 100% recommend! -
