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!

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.

Hi, I am Jackie! Born and raised at the Jersey shore (a proud Sea Girt Patriot for life), I attended Loyola University in Maryland & dedicated 7 years of my career as a Jersey City school teacher. I was honored to earn Teacher of the Year 2019-2020. Those who know me well have dubbed me “Jac of all trades”. My knowledge of and love for the wedding industry is homegrown – my family has been in the business for many years. For as long as I can remember, I’ve had a passion for party planning. Being one of seven children, every dinner is a party! (I LOVE a good theme party.)

When I’m not helping The Mill Lakeside Manor team deliver exceptional wedding experiences, you’ll find me spending time with family and my golden retriever, Hunter.

Fun Fact: I love going to Vermont to snowboard, ride my dirtbike, spin honey, and make homemade apple cider.

“If you can dream it, you can do it.” These are the wise words once said by Walt Disney and they have been a mantra in my life for everything that I have done. Hi, I’m Sue and I am a Johnson & Wales graduate from the Charlotte, North Carolina Campus. Don’t get me wrong, I am born and raised in Jersey my whole life but I’ll say the occasional “Y’all” when you meet me!

My degree is in Hotel & Lodging with concentrations in beverage management, event management, and psychology! If you ever see me walking backward, it’s because I spent my years in college perfecting the skill of giving campus tours. What I bring to the table is previous knowledge in the wedding and hospitality industry.

I always said that my goal was to make others’ dreams become a reality and I’ve found that bringing weddings to life could not make this statement any truer!

Fun Fact: I dabbled in archery (however, I am no Katniss Everdeen), I love going away to the mountains to hike and snowboard with my family, cooking and baking are my passions!

Hi, I am Racquel! I started my career after high school as a hairdresser. Although I have loved my experience in the industry on the beauty side of things, I find that the organization and details of an event are what truly excite me. I have a keen eye for design and strive for perfection which is why I am currently studying event planning at the New York Institute of Art and Design. Making dream weddings a reality is what I strive for!

Fun Fact: If I’m not working, I’m probably at home with my pup and listening to Taylor Swift!

I can not say enough great things about The Mill. My staff and I are always delighted when a new couple comes in to book and they let us know that this is their venue of choice. The entire staff are a delight to be around, the food is amazing and the grounds are picture perfect. We wish The Mill nothing but continued success!
