My fiancé and I spent a lot of time researching and checking out a lot of venues. We went to a wedding expo at Jacques where we met Aimee, and went back again to meet one on one. Let me just say every review that raves about Aimee’s work, attentiveness & professionalism is spot on. She was wonderful and promptly answered every email I sent. The room is massive and provides plenty of space, and the cocktail room is currently being renovated. If your looking for a great venue don’t pass up on Jacques Reception Center.

I cannot say enough how grateful I am to Aimee and her staff for making our night truly amazing. She helped us every step of the way in planning everything answering our 100+ questions and gave us a lot of great suggestions and ideas. Plus the food at Jacques is to die for. So many of our guests talked about how amazing the food was at cocktail hour and the reception. We also had our ceremony in the garden out front, which made it very easy for the whole event. I would highly recommend for their exceptional staff, great value, delicious food, and great spaces for any event.

WOW WOW WOW! My husband and I visited over 20 venues across New Jersey. Jacques was our last and final stop! Aimee is so easy to communicate with and will accommodate any of your wants/needs. Jacques is the perfect venue for any event, large or small. We had about 130 people attend our wedding and we used the full ballroom, which is beautiful. Aimee worked with us on pricing, menu options, layout, etc. She will give her honest opinion and will never guide you in the wrong direction. Jacques provides candelabra centerpieces that are so pretty and add a nice touch to the room. The top candle can also come off and flowers can be placed on top. We decided to put flowers on top of the candelabra on every other table. Jacques also has a photo booth that can be used for your event! Props were provided and there was a person who stayed with the photobooth all night and helped people put pictures into an album. At the end of the night they even gave us a flashdrive with all of the pictures!... Read more The food...I read tons of reviews about how great the food was, but I had never been to an event here before. Going to the bridal show really helped a lot with this because there was a full cocktail hour! For our cocktail hour, we had three stations (The Wok was a HUGE hit), h'dourves, and chafing dishes. We customized some of the food which was a nice touch! The tortellini with vodka sauce was out of this world! I wish I could eat that every day! During the reception, we had the fruit cups which was very cute and delicious, followed by the salad, and either Champagne Chicken, Chateaubriand, or Salmon. Everyone loved all of it. The dessert was amazing! A cake was included with our package and it was delicious and absolutely beautiful. The d'oeuvres dessert was sooooo good. The nutella cheesecake dumplings and the cookies and milk were huge hits! Jacques Reception Center is beautiful and Aimee made everything so special and perfect for us. Thank you!!! PS Special shout out to Lynn! She is a fantastic waitress that worked with us at the food tasting, bridal shower, and on the night of the wedding. She made sure that we always had something to eat and drink and gave us some great tips along the way! :)

Aimee went above and beyond to help us plan our day! Food was excellent! Everyone left full and satisfied

Our wedding was fantastic. Aimee went above and beyond for us at every step of the way. We had Lynn for our tasting as well as for our bridal suite concierge, and could not have asked for someone more attentive. When it came time for my dress to be bustled and my bridal party was struggling to figure it out, Lynn jumped in without hesitation and helped make the process smooth. Planning the wedding with Aimee felt like being with one of our friends. She gives her honest opinion and will help you pick the perfect combination of items. From the mashed potato bar to the pork roll sandwiches on the way out the food was delectable. Jacques truly makes the most important day of your life feel like their most important day as well.

I just read a review that was confusing to me. It gave a low rating, and honestly I have no idea how. Aimee is absolutely phenomenal and has been the only positive experience I have had through my whole wedding planning process. I had a nightmare with my ceremony hall who cancelled on me last minute and Aimee was amazing at accommodating and not only helped with the planning but also went above and beyond to keep me calm. I swear out of all of my vendors and out of all of the places I looked at preliminarily she was hands down the best!

Jacques Reception Center was the perfect venue for me! Aimee went out of her way to make sure everything was just right!! This venue is also affordable! Food is delicious too

We really can't rave enough about Jacques! We have gotten such wonderful feedback from our guests about the food, the service, the atmosphere-- not a single complaint. We actually learned that one of our guests booked an event based on her experience at our wedding! We wholeheartedly agree with our guests regarding the above, but we obviously have additional experiences to rate. First, we have to say that you just can't get any better than Aimee at Jacques!!! She always made time for us and was really accommodating about working with our schedules and she helped us to get the most out of our budget. She gave us fantastic suggestions and advice, and if she tired of the frequent emails she received from one of us, she certainly never showed it. We are each very detail-oriented and (thankfully) so is Aimee: everything we asked of her was done just the way we wanted it and that was much appreciated. Jacques itself has a very elegant look and there are several options depending on wh... Read moreat type & size wedding you are having. There's a lovely outdoor space, a really large ballroom which can be divided if need be, and a smaller event room. There might be more, but these are the rooms we've seen. We had our ceremony in the Tivoli Room with theater seating, and our reception in half of the Veneto Room. There was plenty of space to move around and plenty of room on the dance floor. We opted for a sweetheart table, which is pictured. We'd also like to address the lobby. Once again, quite elegant and welcoming: there are lovely chandeliers, a grand (or baby grand?) piano, floral arrangements, etc. There is also an cozy area with comfy chairs, a couch, and a fireplace. Jacques also has a bridal suite with a private bathroom, mirrors for preparations and touch-ups, and a table and chairs, in addition to a lounge area! The staff is very friendly, professional and efficient and truly take the worry out of your big day! Lots of food and budget options, too!

We live in Arizona and had our wedding at Jacques 07/15/17...it was absolutely amazing! The food was fantastic! The place was beautiful and everything was set up so wonderfully! Aimee went above and beyond and exceeded all of our expectations especially since we let her take control and set things up her way! I wouldn't change a thing! It was so easy to connect with Aimee and see her vision she was so personable. Thank you again Aimee and everyone at Jacques!

Everything was amazing. Food was delicious, venue is beautiful and staff is wonderful. Aimee was coordinating everything and did a great job.

We found Jacques via a Google search and could not have been happier. Steve, the owner, was fair and reasonable when we were negotiating our contract and Aimee, the venue coordinator, was amazing from the second I reached out for an RFP to the very end of my reception. Our guests were amazed at the beautiful setting, friendly staff, and ease with which our entire day went off. We cannot say enough about this place - it's a hidden gem and we cannot give enough praise - they truly made our wedding day the best day ever.

Amazing food, beautiful venue, and amazing staff! We fell in love with Jacques the moment we set foot in the door. Amy is amazing to work with and goes above and beyond for her couples!

I have not had my wedding at this venue, however, my fiance and I have been reaching out to different venues to get an idea of pricing and book a tour. Based on the pictures this venue was definitely on top of my list. However, I must say the responsiveness in reaching out for pricing is beyond disappointing. Through wedding wire I sent a message to get pricing and it has now been over a week with no response. I do understand that businesses are busy, but to see that my message has been read, and still no response! I have even tried calling the venue and the phone just rang and rang. I can only imagine how the service was if we were to book with this venue!

We had our wedding here on 8/26/16. Everything was amazing. The FOOD is out of this world. All of my guests are still raving about the New York Strip Steak, the chicken and waffles and the chicken wrapped in bacon! Aimee is amazing she worked with me every step of the way. She made sure that my husband and I actually ate our dinner. The only thing I was a little confused about was on rehearsal day, we kind of had to figure out how everyone was supposed to stand and walk on our own, but being in a bunch of weddings before, we figured it out! I would definitely recommend Jacques Reception Center for your wedding.
