    10/27/24 Wedding Reception Review

    My husband I had our wedding reception at The Bradford Estate on 10/27/24.

    The Bradford Estate was the first and only reception venue we toured after getting engaged in July 2023. We set an appointment with Rob and right away knew that this was a place we couldn’t pass up. We couldn’t believe how many things were included in their package: lavish cocktail hour, open bar, ballroom decor, cake, linens, cake cutter/server, card boxes, and signage.

    TBE uses an online portal to keep a communication log between us and them, and they helped us plan our wedding reception from August 2023 right until our wedding day on 10/27/24.

    During this timeframe, Rob & Kaylyn were instrumental in the planning process. They always answered any questions we had with care and speed and also made suggestions to help enhance our experience based off of their expertise.

    By the time we got to our food tasting and final details meeting, we were able to meet Holly and Hannah, who also ended up being instrumental on our wedding day, fully immersing themselves in their roles as Maitre D and Bridal Attendant. They both checked in with us throughout the evening and made sure we had all that we needed.

    Their planning and execution led to a successful and fun evening where my husband and I were able to take everything in, be present in the moment, and just enjoy. My husband and I absolutely loved the time we got to spend together alone in the bridal suite enjoying the cocktail hour food and our signature drinks.

    We would be remiss in failing to mention Tasha, who executed our signature cocktails and the rest of the bar staff who worked all night providing drinks to our guests. The chef and kitchen staff also prepared and delivered delicious food enjoyed the entire evening by all. One guest said to us this was the best wedding she ever attended.

    When we began our wedding planning journey, we envisioned having a wedding where people just had fun - no stress, great food, and just enjoying each other’s company. This ended up being a reality thanks to the team at The Bradford Estate.

    I can’t recommend this venue enough.

    Thank you for helping us have the best day of our lives!

    BEST DECISION. Stress Free Wedding Experience!

    We held our wedding at The Bradford Estate on October 13th, and it was absolute perfection. From the moment we visited last year, we knew this place was the one.

    The venue is stunning with a garden ceremony, modern industrial chic cocktail room, and an elegant ballroom. It was the perfect backdrop to our special day and our guests raved about the scenery and all they provided for the day!

    The staff were EXCEPTIONAL. Rob, Kaylyn, Holly, Hannah (my favorite person from the moment I met her), and the rest of the staff were all amazingly helpful, responsive, attentive, and so accommodating throughout the planning process to day of! On the day of, they ensured everything ran smoothly, which allowed us to enjoy our special day without worrying! I'm someone who can't help but worry about everything, about the little things, and the whole day I kept saying "I feel like I should be worrying about something. I'm too calm right now haha." This is so incredibly hard to come by for me and I couldn't be more thankful!

    The venue offers fantastic amenities including a beautiful bridal suite, a fun groom's suite, catering services, indoor and outdoor spaces, welcome drinks, champagne wall, and so so many add-ons to make your day so incredibly special! The food was so delicious! From our breakfast and lunch while the bridal party got ready at the venue to cocktail hour and the dinner show. Our guests absolutely raved over it all! The layout worked perfectly for our wedding, and we appreciated everything being in one location!

    Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better venue for our wedding! The Bradford Estate helped make our day truly magical, as we're so grateful for all their hard work! I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this venue to any couple looking for a beautiful and stress-free wedding experience!

    The Bradford Estate's reply:

    Janet and David,
    Your comments are so greatly appreciated.
    We could not be happier that your family, and especially you two had such a wonderful time.
    You are part of our "alumni family" now, we look forward to seeing you again at one of our special events.

    If we had to choose all over again we would without a doubt and wholeheartedly say The Bradford Estate!

    As you may imagine, of the many daunting tasks that surround planning a wedding, choosing a venue sits at the top. Weekend after weekend, my wife and I visited locations that left us feeling like something was missing. We finally met with Robert at The Bradford Estate, who helped inform our decision to choose them to host our special day. We were especially pleased with the intimacy of the ceremony grounds, and the one a kind open kitchen in the cocktail room. Communication during the wedding planning process was easy and smooth. On the day of our wedding, everyone from Holly the Maitre d’, Hannah the bridal attendant to Daniel the day of coordinator helped keep us in the moment while taking care of everything else. Our guests complimented the delicious hors d’oeuvres, and were pleasantly surprised when they were offered “seconds” at dinner. If we had the ability to influence your decision on where to host your special day, we would without a doubt and wholeheartedly say The Bradford Estate!

    Love.

    Cheers to the newlyweds!

    The perfect day!

    Although I’m biased, I can confidently say my wedding was the best I’ve ever attended - and it was largely thanks to the meticulous planning and phenomenal execution of The Bradford Estate. As a new bride without a wedding planner, I could’ve been easily intimidated and overwhelmed by the wedding planning process. The Bradford assuaged any anxieties with their proactive timelines, meeting benchmarks, and quick communication. Any and every question I had was answered happily by experts who have done this thousands of times before. Every staff member at the Bradford is friendly and capable. From Daniel, the event coordinator who implemented every detail we had dreamt of for our special day and balanced last minute pivots gracefully, to Hannah, my bride attendant who catered to my every need - including bringing me hot tea for my sore throat and fixing my broken gown strap - to all the waitstaff who danced alongside us all night. Aside from the amazing people, the food was phenomenal. The space was a perfect size for our 160 person event - big enough to roam but small enough to feel intimate. The outdoor garden space was well kept and vibrant. I can’t think of a single opportunity for growth - I had the perfect day. The Bradford made my wedding day seamless and spectacular. I am truly grateful for their service.

    Christening

    Dear Kaylyn, Jennifer, and Robert,

    Just wanted to complement you for providing my guests with a wonderful affair.
    The food was superb and the service was excellent. Your staff performed like a highly trained drill team. Jennifer's pre event speech had them well prepared. Thank you all for providing us with a memorable event.

    Fantastic!

    My son & daughter-in-law were married here last week and EVERYTHING was absolutely amazing!! We looked at 20 other wedding venues and none of them could compare to The Bradford Estate's intimate, beautiful setting or the package they offered for the price! The Bridal Suite consisted of several spacious rooms that were lovely, comfortable and fun as we prepared for the big day! The entire staff was extremely helpful, attentive and considerate to our needs throughout the entire 2 years of planning! All our guests either called or text to tell us how delicious the food was and how beautiful the grounds and the venue were!! The Bradford Estate is truly a hidden gem and we would highly recommend it!!

    The Bradford Estate's reply:

    Greetings Terry,
    Our entire staff thanks you for your very kind words.
    Wonderful families like yours are a joy to work with and we had fun putting it all together with you!
    Best wishes to the newly married couple!
    Thank you,

    Beautiful wedding venue

    I just recently got married on 09.01.2023 and the Bradford hands down was the best venue ! I highly recommend to anyone that is engaged to consider the Bradford. We had several meetings leading up to the big day, tons of emails back and forth and the stuff there was so helpful along the way and things were done on time, professional and beautiful ! Every single member of the Bradford on the day of was so helpful and attentive that not one thing went wrong!

    The Bradford Estate's reply:

    Thank you Alexandra,
    We really appreciate your kinds words and wish you all the best.
    Your family now.... we look forward to seeing you both some time soon.

    Bradford's Biggest Fan!

    I cannot recommend this venue enough! We had an amazing experience with the beautiful Bradford venue and team! I want to provide few points that every bride should know, which sold me on choosing this venue in the first place. This venue is an all inclusive package. Your cake, food, alcohol, ceremony, reception, wedding coordinator, and so much more is included. Everything down to the card box, table center pieces, and table numbers are included! Premium cocktail hour stations such as a raw oyster bar and pizza making station are included in the package as well at no extra charge. The only big details I was responsible for were the vendors (dj, officiant, photographer, videographer). The venue/wedding coordinate worked with our vendors and gave them all the guidance they needed to ensure things ran smoothly. Another honorable mention: I didn't even need a florist because center pieces were included and ceremony was in a garden. Lis, Allison, and Lauren helped us every step of the way. They helped us through complex details such as the timeline, and they made the day so special and run smoothly. They were very communicative, and answered each and every question we had quickly and clearly. Lis and Allison were our biggest support during the day of the wedding. They were fun, positive, happy, and provided me with calm energy and support when I was feeling nervous. We got so many compliments from the guests on the gorgeous venue. So many guests specifically loved the staff, and mentioned the white glove service during the reception. Bradford even provide second portions of entrees to any guests who want to try and additional entree! I truly cannot recommend this venue enough. As a bride who didn't enjoy wedding planning and wanted an easy, fun, and all-inclusive experience; this venue was exactly what I was looking for. The price is also reasonable for both quantity of things included in the package, and quality of the venue, food, experience, etc. I 100% recommend this venue and will suggest this venue to all future brides!

    The Easiest Decision You Could Make!

    The best decision we made while wedding planning was choosing The Bradford Estate as our venue! This was the first venue we toured and after touring countless more, we realized that we kept comparing each venue to this one.

    From day 1, The Bradford Estate staff exuded nothing but absolute professionalism every step of the way. Lis was so communicative the entire time and helped us every step of the way. The venue truly has an all-inclusive package and that all-inclusive package includes the most stunning garden grounds, gorgeous decorations, top-shelf alcohol/liquor, bridal suites, day-of coordinators, the friendliest staff, and by far the best food we have ever had at any wedding - HANDS DOWN!

    We expected to have to settle on having the same mediocre food that is served at most weddings, but we instead had the most lavish cocktail hour and reception dining that I have ever seen. The precise attention to detail at every grand station during the cocktail hour will leave your guests stunned. We loved it so much that we ended up extending our cocktail hour into a "cocktail hour and a half". Our guests thought that this was the full dinner and were shocked to have dinners that were somehow even more delicious. Coming from families who love to eat, the guests were so impressed that they even had the option of choosing a second entree, followed by the mouth-watering desserts.

    We are so grateful to the staff, especially Lis and Alison, who coordinated and did everything for us. We simply had to drop off our decorations and the decorating was done by the staff perfectly and cleaned up by them that same night. When my husband and I had not had anything to eat yet, we were taken into a separate room and every option of food from the cocktail hour was given to us to enjoy together. After the wedding, a guest left her earring at the venue and The Bradford mailed it to her the next day. That kind of attention to detail, professionalism, and true care is so rare and our guests noticed it as well.

    In the couple of weeks since our wedding, we have only had our guests raving about their experience. We cannot express the gratitude towards all of the staff at The Bradford Estate for making our wedding day the best day of our lives and for making every step of the process so easily and seamless.

    Choosing The Bradford Estate was easily the best decision we made during the entire wedding process!

    A dream come true

    The Bradford Estate was absolutely amazing to work with for my wedding!!! They made the entire wedding process so easy and stress free!! You get so much food for your money, it is so worth the price! Other venues charge the same price for a fraction of the food!! I loved this venue and being a Bradford Bride, I’d recommend this venue to anyone!!!!

    Absolutely Amazing

    I do not even know where to begin. The Bradford Estate truly allowed me and my husband to have the wedding of our dreams. We toured back in August of 2021 and instantly fell in love with the grounds as well as everything they had to offer. If you're looking for a stress-free wedding day experience... TBE is the way to go. They literally handle EVERYTHING and have amazing staff members ready to make your day go as smooth as possible. Lis was our original day of coordinator (amazing women who will answer every single question you have and ease any pre-wedding-day-stress) ... which got switched last minute to O'shane.. he was phenomenal in making sure everything was going accordingly to plan on wedding day! Hannah and Rebecca were by my side all day and did everything in their power to make sure my husband and I had the best time. My guests continue to rave about how this was the best wedding they've ever been to and they want to do it all over again with us. Excellent food, service, and attention to detail. Cocktail hour was incredible with SO much to offer. Service throughout the reception was truly unmatched - our guests felt so attended to. The bartenders were phenomenal and served amazing drinks all night. I dropped off all of my decor at rehearsal dinner a few days prior and TBE staff worked so hard to set everything up BEAUTIFULLY. I wish we could do it all over again because it truly was the best day of ours lives. Book at The Bradford Estate.. you will NOT be disappointed.

    Amazing Experience

    If you want a stress free experience, The Bradford Estate is where you want to book your wedding!!! I can’t say enough about Elisabeth, Allison, and all the team members at The Bradford Estate. Not only was our experience amazing but guests raved about the food, the beauty of the venue, and the professionalism of the team.

    We knew The Bradford Estate was where we wanted to get married as soon as we walked on the grounds but even more importantly- after meeting with Don’a and then Elisabeth, they made us feel so comfortable and we knew we were in great hands. From planning our big day to the precision of execution on our day… there was literally no stress as we knew we were in great hands. I will say if you can do it… book the upstairs suites to get ready. A special Thank You to Allison who was our attendant- she was there for anything and everything we needed!

    Overall an Amazing team and venue!

    We Had a Wonderful Day.

    I cannot say enough good things about The Bradford Estate. The venue is beautiful. I'll start from the beginning and tell you about our experience.

    The lead-up to the wedding is very well organized. There is a tasting and a few meetings to discuss your plans etc. I imagine this is typical for a venue. What I appreciated, though, was how attentive they were and their prompt responses to our inquiries before the wedding—relieved much of the stress of planning knowing that they could be relied upon.

    Lis, our day of coordinator, was incredible. I can't say enough good things about her. She is organized, smart, attentive, and knows exactly what she's doing. She made sure the wedding went off without a hitch. Fantastic.

    The venue is great and private and each area is unique, you'll see if it's to your taste when you visit. We loved it. The food is fantastic, absolutely fantastic and so much of it! From the cocktail hour to desserts our guests were well-fed and raved about the food!

    Overall, we had a great experience and we would highly recommend The Bradford Estate to anyone who asks.

    The Bradford Estate's reply:

    Jetmir, thank you very much for these kind words. I truly enjoyed planning with you and Nicole. Have a wonderful holiday! Hope to see you this February at the Bradford Ball.

    Absolutely amazing.

    The best decision I made during wedding planning was booking our reception at the Bradford Estate! To start off, the staff went above and beyond - not only on my wedding day, but each day leading up to it. Elisabeth, my maitre d, was there every step of the way. She answered every question of mine and helped with anything I needed. Hannah, my bridal assistant the day of, did not leave my side - whether she was making sure I was hydrated, fluffing my dress, carrying my train, and making sure I had everything I wanted. Next, the food was absolutely amazing. My guests STILL have not stopped raving about the cocktail hour, the entrees, and everything in between. They even offer seconds if any guests wanted to try anything else on my menu! Lastly, the venue is absolutely gorgeous. The gardens are picture perfect, the cocktail hour room has a cozy, rustic feel, and the elegant ballroom with its beautiful windows was absolutely stunning. Time spent in the bridal suites was such a memorable part for me, my husband, our families, and our wedding party. The men had a game room where they had a pool table, video games, and so much more! The bridal suite is the most beautiful bridal suite I've ever seen! I truly can't say enough about my venue. I am so proud to be a Bradford Estate bride and would highly recommend this wedding venue!

    The Bradford Estate's reply:

    Hi Katelyn, we loved working with you to bring your fairytale wedding to life! It was great to see you both enjoying yourselves throughout your entire wedding. We wish you both a lifetime of love and laughter, Congratulations Newlyweds!

    My dream wedding became reality

    A dream come true and a real life fairytale… That’s how I describe my wedding from The Bradford Estate!! I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding, from the organization to the flow of things to the little little details. They truly cared about what I wanted and Elisabeth had such amazing ideas that I wouldn’t have even thought about. They truly care about each and every individual bride. Elisabeth is so organized and answers emails very promptly. Her detail to small things like fluffing the dress, making sure we ate and just overall really making sure the day was perfect for us. It was just incredible. Every single thing was perfect. (And that’s hard sometimes with weddings) It went as smooth as I could possibly ask for. It was hands down the best day of my life and I couldn’t have asked for a better venue, better wedding planner and better wedding attendant.
    We handed off our stuff the day before our wedding and they put every single thing together for us on all the credenza’s perfectly. They always had amazing ideas on where to put stuff and what it would look like. They really made my dream wedding come to life!!
    The food was out of this world and every single guest complimented the food and venue. Cocktail hour was huge and delicious! We had the option of joining cocktail hour or going upstairs, we chose to enjoy a few moments upstairs alone and they brought us a huge plate of food.
    Hannah was our bridal attendant and she was on top of everything with us and just made sure to go above and beyond for us.
    I’m just completely blown away how amazing everything went. It was beyond my wildest dreams.

    Katie we loved working with you to bring your fairytale wedding to life! It was great to see you both enjoying yourselves throughout your entire wedding. We wish you both a lifetime of love and laughter, Congratulations Newlyweds!

    Choose tbe! You wont regret it!

    This will be a long review because of how AMAZING my experience was. I really cannot say enough good things about this venue, how amazing it looked, how accommodating and attentive the staff was, the food, etc, everything was perfect! My guests have not stopped talking about how nice everything turned out and how I must've spent a fortune because of the quality of everything that day.

    Every staff member I came in contact with
    was spectacular! From our first tour with Don'a, to our food tasting with our server Robin, to our wedding day with O'Shane, Liz, and Hannah to just name a few. Our bridal attendant Hannah was absolutely amazing. She was extremely attentive from the moment I walked into the venue, her demeanor was calm and relaxed all day long (I'm sure if I had someone who seemed stressed out it would've rubbed off on me so I was very appreciative of this!), she was able to answer any and all of my questions throughout the day, and she always seemed to be right next to me when I needed her! She also bustled my dress for me perfectly which I was concerned about beforehand because I've seen some bustles go wrong and it really takes away from the dress! Hannah was even ready with our signature drink as soon as we finished with our pictures and it really was such a nice touch! She really seems to love what she does and we never felt like we were a bother to her or anyone else for that matter.

    As I said, my guests could not stop talking about the food (I could go on and on about the food) and how awesome the cocktail hour was. Our guests were greeted with drinks as they entered the ceremony and the guests especially loved the way dinner was served. Just to add to how great the quality of everything was, I've had MANY people tell me that they thought the centerpiece flowers were real (which were included with the venue price!) I also want to mention that the bartenders were ON POINT which was important to us. Guests were commenting on how awesome they were (and their drinks!) and I truly never waited for a drink! They knew what I was drinking and made sure I was taken care of the minute I approached the bar.

    The general manager, Elisabeth, really helped guide me with the planning in those last few weeks. She was very accommodating when it came to phone calls and meetings, especially because I live one hour from the venue. Her calm demeanor also really helped me to feel good about everything the night before the wedding because that day was extremely stressful for me for personal reasons. But as soon as I arrived the staff was just awesome and went through everything so calmly with me. Just seeing how Liz handled everything at the rehearsal really put me at ease and I felt SO relaxed the actual day of my wedding because of it. Walking into TBE team having already set up so many things when we arrived at 2:30p was great. I also noticed the staff specifically checking on our parents from time to time and we were so appreciative of that. My father is in a wheelchair which makes it difficult to travel with him but Elisabeth and her staff were so kind and made sure that everything was going well for him and my mother who was caring for him.

    Again, I'm sure these things are standard for the Bradford team but as a Bride you just imagine so many ways that things can go wrong for the big day, and everything was absolutely perfect instead. So many people describe their wedding day as stressful but I really did have such a great overall experience with the venue at the team. Every aspect of the day was taken care of for me, the venue itself is gorgeous, again the staff was amazing and the food is to die for! Everything was well worth what we paid for and more! This review is long because I truly relied on reviews when making my own decisions, but this review still cannot express enough how wonderful our big day was!

    Aracelis, WOW we feel so lucky to work with amazing couples like you! We love to hear that guests are STILL raving about the food. Guests should always leave with a full stomach and lifelong memories! We wish you both a lifetime of love and laughter, Congratulations Newlyweds!

    Above and beyond

    I can’t say anything bad about Bradford Estate! From helping us change our wedding date due to covid up until our ceremony (FINALLY) they were nothing but helpful. Liz was thorough with every detail that we wanted and made the day beautiful! The food was amazing ( AND SO MUCH FOOD) my guest could not believe the amount of food they were offered. Service was impeccable , my guests were commenting on how attentive each server was. Allison was our bridal attendant that day and she knows how to work! Every little thing I needed she was right there to help me or get me something. I can’t forget all the workers behind the scenes , they rocked it . Everyone there made all the guests feel at home and I couldn’t thank them enough! It was 100% worth the wait!

    The Bradford Estate's reply:

    Hi Cassie, we are so happy to hear you had a fantastic experience at The Bradford Estate. We always want wedding guests to leave with happy stomachs and a lot of smiles. Hopefully, we will see you both again in the future! Love, The Bradford Estate Team

    From this Mrs. to future brides

    Absolutely amazing. They went above and beyond and our day was perfect. They answered all of our questions before hand. You absolutely get your moneys worth. People are still talking about our wedding and how it was the best they have been to. The service was immaculate and on point. There was SO MUCH FOOD!! The food was just amazing. The wedding attendants made sure me and my husband were taken care of all night along with the bridal party and our parents. I will absolutely recommend them to anyone and everyone!!

    The best day!

    We had our wedding at the Bradford on 5/28/22. We had the best day!! We were worried about not being able to have our ceremony outside because of a storm the night before and a passing shower in the afternoon, but Lis and Allison were constantly checking the weather radar and had staff out there drying chairs after a passing shower. We loved the flexibility since other venues told us we’d have to make the call of if our ceremony was inside or outside the night before. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the cocktail hour selection and the fact that they could get seconds at dinner. A few guests who have upcoming weddings couldn’t believe all that the venue supplied (center pieces, cake stand, table numbers, tea lights). Allison was our bridal attendant for the day, and she was awesome! She was constantly checking to see if we needed anything in the suites through the day and that continued throughout the night. So much so that she noticed I was pulling my strap up during cocktail hour, and the next thing I know she is taping it with fashion tape for me while I was talking to guests. We would highly recommend having your wedding here!

    Hi Sarah! We loved being able to celebrate such a wonderful couple, and have so much fun in doing so! We wish you both a lifetime of love and laughter, Congratulations Newlyweds!

    Bride and Groom

    My review is way over due! My husband and I got married on August 1,2021 and I was completely blown away from this place the moment I walked in. Tabitha was very quick to respond with every email I sent. I was able to get a tour within a week and I was soooo happy I decided to come look at this venue. It was an hour away but well worth the drive. Tabitha gave us a tour and asked what was important to us for our wedding and before I even sat down to look at pricing I said where’s the paperwork just sign me up for this venue. The venue itself is beautiful, the ceremony space is gorgeous, my bridal party and family loved the bridal suite, the groomsmen room, and the game room was their favorite. The amount of food that offer is insane! All my guest were so happy with the food offered they couldn’t get over how many stations we had! Liz, Tabitha and Allison are just a few members of the staff that made our day extra special. I would recommend this venue to everyone no matter the budget because I know the Bradford will do their best to accommodate anything you need.The staff even helped me create a casino theme for my husband in the cocktail room as a surprise. They were so helpful and very thorough with all the details I needed to keep a surprise from my husband. I wish I could redo my wedding here every year. Even after my wedding we have been in contact with the Bradford. They are an amazing wedding venue and they know how make sure your wedding is a perfect day and make sure everything is perfect so you don’t need to stress about your day. Thank you so much Liz, Allison and Tabitha you all are amazing!

    The event ran smooth and perfect.

    The one day you do not want to have to worry about anything is this day. The Bradford makes it that way. Everything ran so smoothly and on time and perfect. It was beautiful, and everyone was so kind. I could not be happier with the venue, the food, the people. Through all of covid we changed our date 4 times and the Bradford made it so easy and no stress. The vendors they recommended as well were amazing!

    Dream staff that helped us plan a dream wedding

    If you are looking for a beautiful wedding venue in NJ that offers the best food, beautiful location and most accommodating staff, look no further than The Bradford Estate!

    My husband and I got married in July 2021. We had been planning our wedding for 3 years (we had to postpone twice due to COVID). We searched for venues all across Brooklyn and NJ, and we chose The Bradford Estate. One of the best decisions we ever made!

    Tabitha and Liz were the most understanding and patient as they helped us reschedule our wedding in the middle of a pandemic. They were always there to answer any and all questions we had leading up to our big day. They were also outstanding when it came to following COVID-19 safety protocol. They went above and beyond to help us and our guests feel comfortable and safe at our wedding.

    Everyone from Tabitha and Liz, to our bridal attendant Rebecca and the entire wait staff at the Bradford made us feel so special on our big day. They even brought my husband and I a slew of delicious appetizers during cocktail hour so we could enjoy together in our private suite. They swiftly handled every concern we had on our big day so we could enjoy the festivities.

    And all of our guests RAVED about the food! There was plenty of it the whole night and it was all DELICIOUS!

    We look forward to the day a friend or relative celebrates their wedding at the Bradford so we can return as guests — that’s how much we loved it! We can’t say enough good things about The Bradford Estate. We are so thankful to the entire staff!

    The Bradford Estate's reply:

    Hi Elisa and Anthony!
    Thank you for your kind words. It was such a pleasure to help you plan your wedding and an honor to be able to host your special day!

    The day turned out beautifully and we loved hearing your friends sing your first dance song and see your dance, it was so special! We are so glad everyone had such a wonderful time and we hope you do get to return as a guest in the future!

    We wish you both a lifetime of love and happiness together!

    Best in the Business

    Stop your search for the perfect venue - The Bradford Estate is it. No need to look any further. From start to finish, this venue is the best in the business! I cannot tell enough people how happy I am with the staff, the venue grounds, the food, and the atmosphere they create. All inclusive venues usually seem to good to be true, but The Bradford Estate exceeded all of our expectations. We couldn't even grab our things after the wedding was over because all of our guests kept stopping us to tell us how amazing the whole day was! Elisabeth, the Maitre D, is simply amazing. She did not miss a beat and kept all our plans (even things I had forgotten I wanted) on track. The staff onsite that day will make sure you and your guests do not need to lift a finger! The food is incredible, the bartenders are amazing, and the bridal / groomsman suites are to DIE for. It was so nice to be able to have both of our moms be able to get ready right onsite with us. It makes everything so much easier and less hectic with transportation. I literally cannot say enough good things about this place! I want to have a wedding every year at their venue. :) Luckily, they even have an alumni group we can join and continue to relive it. Absolutely do not hesitate - book them for your wedding TODAY!

    The Bradford Estate's reply:

    Hello Kristin & Carl! It was an absolute honor to be able to work with the two of you and your families! We loved being able to celebrate such a wonderful couple, and have so much fun in doing so! We wish you both a lifetime of love and laughter, Congratulations Newlyweds!
