Would chose them time and time again

I do not know where to start complimenting Crossed Keys. Absolutely everything was perfect not just the day of the wedding but everything leading up to it. Planning with Crossed Keys was every bride's dream. I barely had to think about anything and they were communicative, accommodating and extremely dependable. The venue is magical, I had multiple guests saying it felt like a Disney wedding from the setting and that it was the best wedding they have ever been to. The food was amazing, no one could get enough. We are three months later and my guests are still talking about it and asking about specific dishes from cocktail hour so they could try and recreate it. The service staff was so incredibly kind and our sweetheart table constantly had food and drinks on it. The getting ready space is a makeup artists dream and we couldn't stop finding new spots to take pictures in. I mean everything was perfect, moved like clockwork and stress free. To say this team is professional would be the understatement of the century, they. are. magical. I can't say thank you enough or praise them enough, do yourself a favor and have your wedding here - you won't regret it!

Wow. A dream come true

Crossed Keys Estate exceeded all our expectations and more! As a family-owned and operated venue, every aspect, from operations to floral arrangements to food, exudes a heartfelt touch. From the moment we stepped foot inside, we knew it was the one for us, and we couldn't be happier with our decision. The food was exquisite, the decor breathtaking, with candlelit ambiance creating a romantic atmosphere that perfectly matched the vision we had in mind. The team at Crossed Keys Estate was incredibly accommodating, allowing us to customize every detail to perfection. Throughout the night, every staff member doted on us, ensuring we felt taken care of at every turn. A special shoutout goes to our wedding coordinator, Kiersten, who was a true godsend. From months before the wedding to the final moments of our special day, she was by our side, answering every question, rallying for us, and ensuring our vision came to life flawlessly. Kiersten's meticulous attention to detail and efficiency ensured that nothing was overlooked; she coordinated everything to perfection, seamlessly following our timeline and making every requested detail a reality. We are forever grateful to the entire team at Crossed Keys Estate for making our dream wedding a reality.

The best venue & team for nj weddings

There are not enough words to describe our unforgettable experience at Crossed Keys Estate. I wish I could give their team more than 5 stars! When we started our wedding planning process a few years back I was feeling discouraged. My now husband and I knew we wanted our wedding to be local, but I had a specific vision in mind that I felt would be hard to find in NJ. Most NJ venues had the same ballroom vibe that I was not going for. I wanted a space that if the weather was bad and we had to move our reception inside, I would not be upset. I also wanted to be able to customize a space without clashing with the venue's décor. INSERT CROSSED KEYS ESTATE! As soon as I pulled up to the property for our tour I knew I had to book this venue. Floor to ceiling windows, property that feels like you're in a fairytale, hardwood floors (YES, most venues in NJ have carpet that typically has an outdated design that I felt would clash with my aesthetic), and the most incredible glass conservatory that I did not even know their team was building at the time. I was so lucky that there was 1 free Saturday left for a 2023 October wedding (dreamt of an outdoor Autumn wedding since I was a little girl). From the day we booked Crossed Keys to the days following our wedding the service has been impeccable. Planning a wedding can be extremely stressful, but working with the Crossed Keys team was the best part. They made planning so seamless! I have to give a special shout out to their floral team for making my untraditional wedding visions come to life. When I saw the space for the first time on our wedding day I was fighting back tears. The attention to detail was ON POINT. The amount of effort their team put in to making my Pinterest dreams come to life made our day even that more special. I am forever thankful and grateful to have had the pleasure of working with the Crossed Keys team and to have been able to share this special place with family and friends on our wedding day. The day after our wedding we were inundated with messages from our guests expressing how this was the best wedding they've been to. From the jaw dropping space/property, friendly & white glove staff/service, to the farm to table food and drinks (which to be honest is not always the best at weddings) everything exceeded expectations of what I thought our wedding day would be like. I wish we could do it all over again!
So to all the future brides who are considering Crossed Keys Estate, DO IT. You will not regret booking their team for one of the most special days of your life!!!!
