Stop reading this review and go book your wedding at Stone Bridge now before they run out of availability!!!... Okay are you back and have time to read?
Me and my wife looked at 15 venues and we saved the best for last when we landed at Stone Bridge. First to start with what the bride and groom will get.. each of you will get your own bridal suit. Both suites are gorgeous and big, I would highly recommend having getting ready photos done there. After the ceremony there was plenty of room for our families to hangout comfortably while we wrapped up photos and awaited the cocktail hour to start. You will both get the bridal attandant, (we had Dinora) she made it feel like we had 3 bridal attandants each because of how helpful she was. We had roughly 40 family members in the suites after the ceromony and I think at one point Dinora was moving in light speed to be so accomodating to our large family and making sure everything ran smoothly for us. My wife absolutely loved her and couldn't believe how helpful she would have come to be.
Dinora's dedication to making your day special is matched by the matradee, Terrance. Our first time to really link up with Terrance was the tasting where he was extremely helpful in guiding us through our menu options. He is so personable and willing to help us that it felt like he was a best friend I had for years. The day of the wedding he made sure we were on time for everything, gave us a private moment in our bridal suite where all the food from the cocktail hour was neatly presented so we can enjoy it all. If I told Terrance on the day of the wedding I needed an organ I think he would have given one to me. He is also in charge of the in house decor of the venue which was absolutely fantastic.
The last person I have to mention is Gregg, I think I exchanged roughly 200 emails with Gregg because I am a very hands on person and he was so patient and receptive to all the questions we had. Because of Gregg's knowledge of the venue and the business of event planning he made doing certain things like picking menu cards, colors, seat charts, and other organizational details of the wedding fool proof. There was not one thing we requested that Gregg wasn't able to provide us with. The luckiest part of wedding planning was the day I called him to book our originally date and secured us as customers of Stone Bridge.
Now let me briefly say what the guest will have... A great time, great food, and be stunned by the beauty of the venue. Our wedding was 12/2/21 so our guest and families loved the holiday decor in the venue. Next to the main bar their was a tented area that was extremely comfortable and warm considering it was a 40 degree night so there was plenty of room for more guest to spread out. We had the following hot stations which were loved Ship Wrecked(stuff clams, fried Calamari, Clam and Mussel Fri-diavolo) so fresh, not fishy at all. Mulberry Street that had one of the best eggplant rolatinis and extremely tender steak in peppercorn sauce. Orient Express which is so fun and cute how the food is served in little white containers like from an Asian Fusion restaurant. Lastly a pasta station, we had pesto and vodka sauce but I'm sure everything is a great choice. Huge hits from the passed Hors D'oeuvres were mini-beef wellingtons, Seared Ahi Tuna, duck wontons, the other ones were great too those just stand out at the time and Terrance will be extremely helpful when you choose them. The starter was a burrata salad that was given with a decent size ball of burrata that is so delicious!!! Our entrees was the porcini crusted chicken which is presented like a michellen star restaurant and so savory and juicy, the terriaki glazed salmon which once again fresh and not fishy, and lastly a mouth watering braised short rib... Besides the cake we opted to have a passed desserts for our guest, personally I loved the chocolate mousse shooter and the chocolate covered strawberries were so big, juicy and ripe. Was so full from all the great food it was hard to try everything at the end of the night.
To seal the deal we opted to have an extra hour of open bar for our guest which was yet another big hit and Stone Bridge took care of piping in fun music to keep the good time rolling. The two bartenders John and Santiago moved so quickly to assure everyone was getting drinks in a quick manner. Book here you, your friends, and your family are going to be taken care of like none other.
P.S. if you book at Stone Bridge, please invite me and my wife cause we are dying to go back!! read more
