    Wonderful Stress-free Experience!

    My husband and I wanted to express how thankful we are for the Mill team for making our wedding extra special! Our wedding coordinator, Brigitte walked us through our entire wedding journey and answered all questions we may have had prior to our wedding date.

    During wedding day, the team's attention to detail was incredible - Mary Anne and Tyler were absolute MVPs in ensuring we had an amazing time. Their dedication and expertise truly made a difference. We're sooo grateful for the SEAMLESS experience and unforgettable moments the Mill helped us create.

    The BEST wedding venue!

    The Mill is the absolute best wedding venue! My husband and I got married 11/9/23 and it was the most perfect day. The staff is top notch - from the coordinators (shout out Racquel!), bridal attendants (Julia!), the maitre d (Tyler!), chef and servers, everyone was so professional and kind. They are there for all of your needs and make the wedding planning process seamless and stress free. This venue has it all - decor you can use, a list of recommended vendors, checklists for wedding planning, and an overall great atmosphere. They really take care of you here and you can tell they care so much about all of their couples. We got so many compliments on how beautiful the venue and grounds were, the food, and the staff. The Mill gave us the absolute best night of our lives and we couldn't imagine getting married anywhere else. We hope to return as guests!

    The Mill Lakeside Manor's reply:

    Dear Caitlin,

    We are so honored to have been a part of your wedding day here! We hope you will relive these special memories for years to come! Congrats again on your marriage and we hope to see you again soon!

    Love,
    The Mill Lakeside Family

    Best venue in NJ

    The Mill lived up to the hype. The SERVICE, the FOOD, the DRINKS, the ATMOSPHERE. Unbelievable. The amount of guests that keep calling us raving about The Mill and the service/food is crazy! They LOVED it. So many guests said “best wedding they have ever been to”. Susan (Sue) at The Mill, our coordinator was FANTASTIC. So responsive, so sweet, and truly sold us on the place. Maryann our maître d’ was so hysterical, so fun, so attentive, and was always there when we needed her. Everything about The Mill is truly perfection, they are a well oiled machine and know how to throw an exceptional wedding. The Mill is hands-down the best venue in NJ.

    Best Day Ever

    We had our wedding on 10/01/23 and it was nothing short of perfect. The staff at the Mill is absolutely incredible. Special shout out to our coordinator Sue and maitre d
    Tyler, who were so helpful and responsive from start to finish. Our guests are still raving about the top-notch food, atmosphere, and service! Myself, my husband, and our families were treated like royalty and it shows just how amazing the Mill is at what they do! We wish we could do our wedding all over again and would choose the Mill every time! It was truly the best day ever!

    The Mill Lakeside Manor's reply:

    Hi Kelsey,

    Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!! We are so happy to read that we were able to give you the fairytale wedding of your dreams! There are not enough words to express how grateful we are to have been a part of your big day here! We hope to see you again soon! Love, The Mill Lakeside Family

    The absolute best wedding venue

    The Mill is THE BEST. I can’t imagine getting married anywhere but the Mill after the wedding day we had! From the day we walked in to our tour through today (3 weeks post wedding!) Sue, Tyler and the whole team made us feel so loved and appreciated and amazing. They listened to every detail and thing we asked and without hesitation or question accommodated our wants and needs. Our wedding was above and beyond what we could have imagined and we are soo thankful. There were 0 flaws from the Mill team! We got so many compliments about the fantastic service, the food, the venue, all of it. My husband and I felt so cared for and attended to throughout the whole day. The Mill provided us with the ABSOLUTE best day of our lives and I have been telling all my friends to get married there just so I can go back. They also provided us with their recommended vendors and every single one was amazing. There’s so much competition in the wedding industry and it’s hard to know who’s reliable so this was an amazing detail from them. The whole day and the venue and the team were just absolutely amazing. I hope every couple gets to have the day that we had and without the Mill team this wouldn’t be possible. Don’t even think about another venue, this is the place to have your wedding. We can’t wait to go back!!

    The Mill Lakeside Manor's reply:

    Dear Ali,

    Thank you SO much for all of your kind words! We are so honored that you chose and trusted us to host your special day. It was a pleasure working with you both and wish you all the best with this new chapter of your lives together! Hope to see you guys soon!

    Love, Your Mill Lakeside Manor Family

    Absolutely amazing venue! You will not be disappointed!

    There are not enough positive words in this world to explain how amazing The Mill, their coordinators, chefs, waiters/waitresses, and rest of the staff are! If you want your wedding day to go off without a hitch, this venue will 1000% make it happen. We got engaged in April 2021 and for over a year looked at over 20 venues between Massachusetts and New Jersey (where each of our families are from.) I was also very torn because we initially wanted a venue right on the ocean, but was also big enough to accommodate our guest list number. Amongst all the states between Jersey and Mass, no venue checked as many boxes as The Mill, which ultimately was the reason we chose to have our 240 guest list wedding here. Your guests will be blown away from the minute they walk in, until the minute they leave.

    I can promise that you will not be able to find a venue that offers as many cocktail hour passed horderves, food stations, drink options, first course, main course, and dessert options as The Mill. It is so evident that unlike a lot of venues we looked at, The Mill works hard to maintain, update, and actually puts money back into their outside ceremony space, landscaping, cocktail hour room, and ballroom to make it better each year. Every time we visited between 2021-2023, the property got more and more beautiful and more and more food options were offered!
    What also makes The Mill stand out from all other venues we considered was the communication, friendly staff, and awesome resources they offer you before you book, while you’re planning, and on the day of your wedding. Susan, Racquel, Jackie, and Richard were all so helpful in the entire planning process and on the day of our wedding. You are always guaranteed a wedding coordinator for the day of your wedding and a bridal attendant to assist you, which I promise you won’t get at most venues! The staff is always willing to go above and beyond for their bride and grooms and will answer your endless amounts of late night questions/concerns, very promptly!

    Not to mention, the amount of items that are included when you book your wedding are endless! From floral table centerpieces, to table numbers, table cloths, plate options, generations of love signs, signature drink signs, card boxes, the list goes on and on and on! Not only do they offer you all these items to use, but they have different options that you can choose from that fit your theme. I still am amazed at the amount of things we did not have to purchase because The Mill literally offers and has everything you need at no added cost!
    We were so impressed with how smoothly everything went from the start of our planning to the end of our wedding. This absolutely could not be done without all the staff members at The Mill. Our guests are still raving about our wedding and how beautiful it was. We are so happy that we were able to accommodate so many guests comfortably at a beautiful venue near the Jersey shore. We are actually sad that we won’t be communicating with the great staff on a weekly basis anymore, but we are excited to attend their “Alumni Bride and Groom” events that they host each year! What more could you ask for?!

    The Mill Lakeside Manor's reply:

    Hi Catherine ,

    We can not thank you enough for this absolutely glowing review! We are so honored that you and Bernie choose use to host your special day and will forever cherish your kindness! Your kind world seriously mean the world to us! We hope to see you both again soon at our alumni gala!

    Best wishes always,
    The Mill Lakeside Family

    The Best Venue

    I didn't know it at the time but booking with The Mill was the single-handed best decision we made for our wedding. From the moment we entered for our tour we were made to feel like family. Everyone at the Mill is incredibly skilled and professional yet make you feel completely at ease, like talking to old friends. Six months later and our guests are still talking about the food (which is incredible). The views are beautiful, every detail is handled with professionalism, and The Mill remained in contact throughout the entire process. This is truly one of the best places you can get married.

    The Mill Lakeside Manor's reply:

    Hi Christina,

    Thank you so much for your kind words! We are so happy we were able to be a part of your special day! Thank you for choosing us. We hope to see you and Chris at our alumni events! Please stay in touch

    Best Venue EVER

    Our wedding would not have been so magical if not for The Mill and their amazing staff. From day 1 when we first toured the venue, we knew it was where we were going to get married. Sue was so unbelievably helpful and patient, and definitely talked me off a ledge more than once when we encountered a few guest-related issues in the run up to the big day. We are so grateful to her.

    Grace was our attendant on the actual day and she was ready for anything. She was basically the fifth bridesmaid.

    And of course, we are so thankful for Richard, who kept our wedding day running like a well-oiled machine and made last minute adjustments when we found out a whole table was not coming the night before our wedding. His vision during the final days of planning was beyond measure. We would have been lost without him.

    There is no better place to get married on the planet. AND our guests are still talking about the incredible food, five months later.

    Hi Danielle,

    Absolutely Phenomenal!!

    We toured two venues, this one first - and INSTANTLY fell in love and booked it the next day. The team at The Mill are all amazing to work with and will make it the most perfect day for you. They are so kind, helpful, and answer any and all questions you have during the entire planning process. You can’t beat how beautiful the grounds are, the spacious areas for cocktail hour & reception, and how they have both a bridal and a groom suite to hang in! I could go on and on about this venue, but I’ll end with what everyone raved about: THE FOOD! If you are overwhelmed looking at venues, look no further and book at The Mill - 100% you will be so happy and have an amazing wedding day!!

    (Photos by Luna and Lark Photography - also phenomenal and highly recommend!!)

    The Mill Lakeside Manor's reply:

    Thank you, Alyssa for this wonderful review!! We are so happy to hear that you had an amazing experience with us :-). You were so lovely to work with! We hope to see you at one of our alumni events in the future. Love always, Your Mill Family

    Best. Day. Ever!

    We had our wedding here on April 16th. It was literally the best day of our life. My husband and I couldn't have asked for a better venue. Their attention to detail was EVERYTHING! Anything that we needed we got.

    Before the day even occured we had lots of communication with our coordinator at The Mill, Susan. She was always available to help with any questions we may have had. They were very welcoming anytime that we came in to tour the venue with bridal party members that wanted to see the venue. It felt like home!

    The venue is decorated beautifully to the point that I didn't even feel the need to bring my own centerpieces, theirs were gorgeous and would complement any palette.

    We had our ceremony outside in the gazebo/pergola. Everything was beautiful there with the dock and the ambiance that is provided. And where else can you be in two towns at the same time for the same event??

    We had a dedicated attendant all night. She made sure that if we needed food or a drink we had it. Richard, the maitre'd knew his stuff and the wedding went off without any huge hiccups. The bartenders and the staf were all amazing. They made sure that all of our guests had something to eat whether it be vegetarian to even the little ones in the bridal party.

    Cocktail hour was AMAZING, the amount of food offered between cocktail hour and dinner is incomparable. People are still RAVING about the food from the wedding almost 5 months later!! Everyone tells us that this was the best wedding that they have ever been to!

    The hangover prevention station as a favor was an amazing thing to have. It was so much easier than having to do our own favors, they had it all taken care of. And I mean come on you leave a wedding with a pork roll, egg and cheese and a pretzel for a snack, who doesn't love that??

    We couldn't recommend The Mill Lakeside Manor enough. Anyone that I know getting married will get a recommendation to use The Mill from us!!

    The Mill Lakeside Manor's reply:

    Hey Megan,

    Thank you so much for this amazing review! We are so happy to hear that you and Rich had the best wedding day ever. Your kind world mean the world to us! We hope to see you both again soon at our alumni gala!

    Best wishes always,

    Fairy tales come true

    We had our wedding yesterday March 11, 2023 and I can't say this enough.. my day was truly perfect! Everything was on point! Richard and Grace I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for going above and beyond! I'm so grateful!

    I've worked in restaurants my entire life and through all the photos and dancing I sat back at one point when dinner was starting and realized the amount of coordination and organization of the wait staff was so impeccable! The rotation was effortless. I have never seen that at an event ever!

    The food was above and beyond, every single one of my guests had told us how amazing everything was from cocktail hour to the reception ... To the guests leaving and receiving food from the hangover station! It was just amazing!

    Thank you to everyone at the Mill for honestly just creating the most PERFECT DAY! Everything was what I have dreamt of since I was a little girl!

    Thank you for creating my fairytale ❤️

    Jessica, thank you for recognizing our service, our food, and our venue. Thank you for your 5 stars and your recommendation, we are grateful!

    The Mill is the place to be

    Choosing The Mill as our wedding venue was the perfect decision! We got engaged in July of 2022 and decided to go the fast route and book our wedding for 02/2023. Once we toured the venue, we knew it was the place for us. Jewel was the one who helped us through the process from day 1, and was right by our side all the way to & through our big day. They make planning a wedding as easy as it could be -- taking care of so much and keeping us on track -- everything from the food tasting all the way down to how we wanted our napkins folded at the tables. I cannot say enough good things. As for the people -- Jewel was incredible helping the whole way, Richard was also on point in planning as well as an INTEGRAL part of our big day. Several guests of our wedding commented specifically on Richard and how he went out of his way to help them during the event. Every other staff member we dealt with -- from kitchen staff to security at the end of the night -- was fantastic & we can not say enough good things about them. For the big day, everything was organized, the food was incredible (all our guests won't stop talking about it), the venue was immaculate, and the people were great. We don't know how to better say it than... HAVE YOUR WEDDING @ The Mill!!

    The Mill Lakeside Manor's reply:

    Hi Stephen & Jordyn!
    HUGE thank you for these kind words and being such a great couple to work with!! Gunner has some great parents!! You guys rock & we can't wait to see you at the Gala!!!

    Best wedding venue

    We recently had our wedding on January 1st, 2023 and it was nothing short of perfect. Our guests have said it was one of the best weddings they’ve ever been to. From the grounds, spectacular staff, and outstanding food you won’t regret having your special day here. Our wedding coordinator Sue was so pleasant and a gem to work with. From beginning to end she helped us achieve the wedding of our dreams. Our maître d, Richard, was beyond wonderful. He made our night run so smooth and was always there for whatever we needed (even for when I got lipstick on my dress). I promise you, your guests will not leave hungry. There are so many great options to choose from for the cocktail hour and the reception. We even added on the Viennese hour for dessert which was such a hit! Honestly, the cherry on top is how beautiful this place is. It was truly made for the best wedding photos! Even the swans paid us a visit during our first look 🦢❤️ . If you’re getting married please do yourself a favor and book The Mill for your wedding, you will not regret it.

    The Mill Lakeside Manor's reply:

    Hi Allison & Christopher,

    Thank you so much for your positive review of our wedding venue! We're thrilled to hear that you both had a wonderful experience with us. We take pride in providing a beautiful and comfortable space for couples to celebrate their special day, and it's great to know that we were able to help make your wedding day one you will remember! Thank you for choosing us and we will wish you both a lifetime of happiness and joy together! Love, The Mill Lakeside Family

    The Perfect Venue for a Perfect Wedding day

    Words cannot express how amazing my wedding was at the Mill Lakeside Manor! The staff at this venue made me and my now husband feel like FAMILY throughout the whole planning process and even after our wedding. They took into consideration each detail, I was completely stress free my entire wedding day. The food was so delicious, my guests still cannot stop raving about it. So much was included as well with the venue which made the planning process so much easier. They provided excellent recommendations for vendors which were the very best as well. I wish I can have another wedding day there, I still cannot stop smiling about it!

    Wedding Venue

    All I can say is WOW!!! Please consider booking The Mill Lakeside Manor for your wedding. We have no regrets!!
    Every one of ur guests have raved about this venue since the wedding, and said it was the best wedding ever!!
    While this venue is expensive, you are getting so much for the price. The service is above and beyond, everyone that works there is so friendly and helpful. It rained on our wedding day, however we still have some amazing photos outside the venue, which turned out to be gorgeous!!
    Sue our wedding coordinator, is amazing to work with! She answers emails in a timely manner, kept us on schedule for each wedding "to do" on our list, and the process was smooth and stress free. She is so sweet and we are so thankful to her for her help on our big day, helping with keeping. my wedding dress from getting wet for photos. Thank you so much Sue!!
    The decor for the venue is so beautiful, we didn't really need to add much!! They also have beautiful uplighting and floral arrangements. There are other nice touches from the venue that they can provide more info for you if you decide to book with them.
    Richard was outstanding!!! He also is very sweet, knowledgable and made sure my now husband and I were taken care of throughout the entire night. Not once did we have to search for him for any help, he was always there which we appreciated so much!! He even got us our signature drinks for us when he knew we had nothing to drink prior to arriving at the venue. A big thank you for everything!!
    Our bridal attendant was also very professional and was there for us whenever we needed. Thank you so much!!
    Trust me when I say, your wedding day will go smoothly and you will not have any worries at all. I felt so confident about this place after booking, and we know we made the best choice! I can be highly critical of things, but everyone at the Mill Lakeside Manor are so professional and helpful, you will have no regrets!!

    The.Absolute.Best.

    Oh my god. I genuinely don't know if I will be able to fully convey just how INCREDIBLE the Mill and their staff are. My husband and I got married on 10.30.22 and we truly start crying happy tears any time we think about our wedding day. I cannot thank them enough for everything they did to ensure we had the most enchanting day.

    I want to start first with our experience as a couple in planning: Jacqueline (our wedding coordinator) went above and beyond on multiple occasions to help us out and ensure that our wedding was exactly what we wanted. At the time, my fiancé and I were living on the West Coast- everyone at the Mill was very accommodating of the time difference and our limited availability of coming on site. Richard (the Maitre D) was also incredibly attentive to details and responsive to messages. We were impressed with Richard and Jackie's ability to anticipate things we need and quick to problem solve. Richard and Jackie always led with yes. Anything we asked for they worked to see how they could make that work. It made the process so much easier knowing that they were working WITH us not against us. We really were a team. Not only does The Mill have a lot of decorations and supplies on site, but they take care of little details too if you forget (example: we wanted to hang our neon sign but when I dropped off the decor two days before the wedding we realized we didn't have zip-ties. It was not a problem at all. I offered to get some but Jackie immediately said no and took care of it herself.) You truly couldn't be in better hands than at The Mill.

    The day of: Everything was perfect. Literally. They have a strong group of staff members that truly take care of everything. The entire day went smoothly and my husband and I did not have to worry about a single thing. (Even when he ripped his pants. Julia the bridal attendant quickly rushed to get a giant box of supplies that had safety pins that we used to patch him up)

    From our guests: The food was FANTASTIC. So many of my guests lost their minds during the cocktail hour with all of the different options. Not to mention the dinner was phenomenal AND seconds were offered. We got a lot of feedback from our friends that the bar staff was great, even at the busiest they didn't have to wait more than 30 seconds to get a drink. This was essential to keeping the dance floor full. Staff was respectful, kind, and professional. Our guests keep saying this was the best wedding that they've ever attended.

    Do not hesitate to book The Mill. I'm so serious. The venue itself is breathtaking, the town of Spring Lake is gorgeous, but it is the staff at The Mill that really made the entire experience so special. We truly felt as if we were part of the family. I cannot thank them enough for everything they did for us.

    Megan & Devin, This is by far one of the nicest reviews we have ever received. Your kind words mean more than you will ever know and the reason we absolutely LOVE what we do!! We 100% agree that it was the perfect day fir an absolutely perfect couple. Your little thoughtful touches, like including your dog in your ceremony, is what really put it over the top! We are forever grateful for our relationship and hope to see you both soon! We are excited to see what life brings you next!! Love always, Jackie, Richard, Racquel, and your entire Mill Forever Family

    Highly recommend the Mill for your wedding!

    We cannot say enough good things about the Mill! Sue, Richard, and the rest of the Mill team made our dream wedding a reality. Our outdoor ceremony was breathtaking, the reception was beautiful and so much fun, the team was there for whatever we needed the day of our wedding, and our guests are still talking about how great the food and service were. We hope to be back as wedding guests soon!

    Perfection

    Where do I even start with The Mill??? My husband and I got married on 10/14 and I am still smiling from the day, which is due in large part to The Mill and the entire staff. I am a very organized and type A person and The Mill was always very responsive with any questions or concerns I had. The entire staff is excellent at communication and always keeps you in the loop with what needs to be done and the best ways to do it. Everything on our wedding day was PERFECT. We had our ceremony and reception at The Mill and all of our guests raved about every aspect. The food, drinks, and service were incredible and everyone felt pampered, but still relaxed from the beautiful environment. My husband and I keep saying we hope to one day get invited to a wedding at The Mill because we would love to go back and experience it all again!

    Best Venue!

    The team at The Mill is absolutely amazing. From top down they make sure that you are taken care of and that your day is 110% everything that you expected. So many of our family and friends told us that the wedding was by far the best wedding that they have EVER attended. The cocktail hour is absolutely unbelievable with the quality and quantity of food! Jackie was fantastic all evening for us, making sure that we never had an empty drink and that we were where we needed to be at the right time. I cannot recommend this venue enough to anyone looking to get married. Worth EVERY PENNY!!

    The Mill Lakeside Manor's reply:

    Hi Morgan & Mike,
    Thank you so much for your kind words! We are so glad you and your guests had an amazing time!
    Your vows had us laughing & crying in the back! Wishing all the love & happiness in the world!

    Our perfect wedding day

    My husband and I got married at The Mill on 10/2 and everything was amazing. We got married on a day that did not stop raining but it did not take away any of the beauty of the day or our experience. All of the staff is top notch professional - Richard and the whole team literally thought of everything from beginning to end and made the whole day and wedding planning process seamless. Us and our families did not want for a thing on the day- the staff was so proactive in every step and I don't believe we could have had a better day if we tried. So many of our guests couldn't stop complimenting how beautiful the venue is and how delicious all the food was, solidifying that we did pick the best spot.We cannot recommend The Mill enough to anyone looking for their perfect wedding venue!

    Christina & Michael,

    THANK YOU, THANK YOU for your kind words. It was lovely working with you throughout this whole process to make your special day as perfect as ever. We are so grateful you chose us. Please keep in touch! Hope to see you soon

    Best Day Eve!

    Beautiful venue and great team to work with every step of the way. The food, the atmosphere, the people, were all great. The process was easy considering how nerve racking planning a wedding can be, but the team at Mill answered every question and concern along the way. The day of I didn't have to worry about anything, the team was on point and knew what I needed sometimes before I did. Wish we could live that day all over again!

    Fantastic!!!

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about The Mill. Not only are the grounds and indoor set ups absolutely breathtaking, but the food and service are truly outstanding. Jackie and the entire team at The Mill helped me create the wedding of my dreams. Guests are raving about the food, service, and atmosphere which are all one of a kind. Richard (maitre d) and Lada (bridal attendant) are AMAZING!! They were there from start to finish to make sure everything ran smoothly, everyone knew where they were supposed to be, and ensured I always had everything I needed. I am so thankful to The Mill staff for all they did to make our wedding a dream come true.
