The Rockleigh Reviews

We couldn’t be more grateful to the entire team at The Rockleigh for making our wedding day truly unforgettable. From start to finish, they were professional, organized, and an absolute joy to work with. The entire staff clearly knew what they were doing, which made everything feel seamless and stress-free for us.

A special thank you to Bari, who was with us from the very first day we toured The Rockleigh all the way through our wedding day. Her warmth, responsiveness, and guidance throughout the planning process meant so much to us.

We also want to give a shoutout to Tony, who was instrumental in making sure our events ran smoothly. His attention to detail gave us so much peace of mind.

Our incredible bridal attendants, Sandra and Brian, truly went above and beyond—they were by our sides all day, making sure we were comfortable and taken care of, while also checking in on our families and guests. Their attentiveness did not go unnoticed and was so appreciated.

The Rockleigh was also fantastic at coordinating with all of our vendors and making sure everything came together perfectly. We felt so supported every step of the way.

If you're looking for a venue that offers both elegance and top-tier service, The Rockleigh is the place. Thank you again to the entire team for helping us create the wedding of our dreams!

I had the wedding of my dreams at The Rockleigh! I worked with Bari and Melanie, and they made the whole planning process a breeze. Any request, question or need was filled. There professionalism, attention to detail and passion to make your wedding nothing short of perfect is truly appreciated and noticed. Also our guests are still raving about the food and especially the service!

To Bari and the staff of the Rockleigh,

We would first like to start off by saying thank you so so very much for making our wedding a dream come true.

From the moment Luigi and I walked into The Rockleigh, we knew this was the venue we would get married in. As soon as we meet Bari we knew we were in good hands. Starting with the venue tour and then explaining what they offer. To then explaining every detail and answering all questions one could ask at a first meeting. As we continued to plan our menu it was such a pleasure and easy going experience. Melanie was a huge help with questions and helping Luigi and I plan drop off dates for future visits and to tie all the loose ends. As we approached the day I was promised by Bari, that the Rockleigh staff will make sure your wedding is a dream come true! And sure enough they didn’t disappoint!

Starting with the morning of, as early as 7am, I was greeted by staff and Sandra my wedding attendant. Sandra was really my fairy god mother all day. She made sure I had everything and anything as well as my bridesmaids. If you’re second guessing getting ready at the Rockleigh and using the facility and being served hand and foot, STOP! Because honestly it was the best decision I made from the start of planning. The staff were absolutely amazing! Sandra went above and beyond for me. Making sure I was on time, keeping me calm and really did more than I could ever imagine a bridal attendant could do. As for when Luigi got there- he was greeted by Brian, his groom attendant. He too was absolutely amazing! As nerves as Luigi was and couldn’t keep calm, Brian made sure of it. He too was with us all day and night, and really went above and beyond the call. And of course Tony, with a great smile and his vast experience, made sure everything was absolutely perfect.
With Bari, Sandra, Brian, and really the entire Rockleigh staff, we had the best wedding ever!!

Luigi and I cannot thank you enough for the fairy tale wedding we dreamt of and for really making everything a true reality.

Love always
Mr. And Mrs. Andreoli Jr

Truthfully, I don't even know where to begin. I have started writing my review over and over again and don't even have the words to explain how grateful I am for the Rockleigh, Jeffery and Anthony.
When we first toured the Rockleigh, we knew immediately that this was the venue we wanted to have our wedding. After leaving that day, we did tour two other venues and neither of those came close to the professionalism that the Rockeligh had to offer. The entire planning process was simple because the Rockleigh offers so much. Jeffery was extremely easy to communicate with and was incredibly kind and honest.

On our actual wedding day...
I decided to get ready at the Rockleigh and add on the "get ready" package. When we arrived, we were greeted by our bridal attendants who did not leave my side that entire day- they were so amazing. They provided us with breakfast and lunch while we were getting ready and constantly were checking if myself or my bridal party needed anything. We had a church wedding, so we returned back to the Rockleigh for our reception. Anthony assisted us throughout the night, didn't leave our drinks empty and was there for any questions we had.

It's a few months later and people are still raving, telling us that the Rockleigh was the most beautiful venue they have ever been to, and everyone cannot get over the level of service they were provided with. I fell in love with the way the Rockleigh looked, but after my wedding was over I felt starstruck over the entire experience. The Rockeligh staff made my husband and I feel like we were the only wedding in the world that day, and I will forever be grateful for this venue and the relationship they have with their customers.

I had the pleasure of hosting my wedding at The Rockleigh this past June, and I can't say enough great things about the entire experience! From the very first tour to the big day itself, Jeffrey was absolutely outstanding. He was incredibly helpful, attentive, and made sure everything was exactly how we envisioned it.
The entire staff was top-notch, consistently kind and incredibly attentive, making sure every guest felt special. We also received so many compliments on the food and drinks — they were out of this world! People couldn't stop talking about how amazing the menu was, and it truly elevated the whole celebration.
The Rockleigh exceeded all of our expectations, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a venue that combines beautiful surroundings with exceptional service and incredible cuisine. A perfect choice for a wedding!

We can’t begin to express how much we felt taken care of by Bari, Melanie, and the entire Rockleigh Team. From being extremely generous with their time during multiple site visits, to giving us extensive options to choose from that allowed us to have the wedding of our dreams, the planning process was made much more comfortable and enjoyable because of the Rockleigh team. The day of our wedding was incredibly eye opening- Bari had said several times before that they would make our dreams wedding come true and she was not joking. There was not a single ask that went unfilled, from helping steam my wedding attire and tuxedo so I could focus on getting ready, to literally giving me a bow-tie because I had forgotten mine at the hotel, the entire day was elevated by the professionalism and care we felt. And all of it was done with joy, kindness, and a level of comfort that was really helpful when the pressure was on. I can’t recommend the Rockleigh enough simply for their team. On top of that the venue is incredible and provided the atmosphere for the most elegant and magical experience we could have imagined!

Thank you to the Rockleigh who showed us they are the best in the business for all kinds of weddings and celebrations!

I am proud to say that I am a Rockleigh bride. My wedding day was 9/7/24. I wanted an outdoor ceremony. It rained all morning. I scheduled the ceremony to be about 30 mins, but I gave a hour window for guests to arrive late. To have the ceremony outside, the Rockleigh timed when the rain was supposed to stop and start again. We had a quick ceremony but it was outside like I wanted it.

The service at the Rockleigh was phenomenal. My guests raved about the food. My attendants were truly heaven sent. There wasn’t a problem they couldn’t solve.

I have no regrets. The Rockleigh gets 10/10.

The Rockleigh is pure luxury. With its grand architecture and lush gardens, it’s a stunning choice for a wedding. Every detail here feels so thoughtfully designed—it’s always a joy to capture timeless memories in such an elegant space.

The Rockleigh was truly first-class all the way! From the moment we stepped foot inside, we could tell this place was different than any other venue - aside from the sheer beauty of the lobby, they made you feel instantly important and valued before ever even getting to know us. Once we toured the rest of the building and sat down with our coordinator, Bari, the experience only got better. They stayed in touch with us from the moment we signed our contract, guiding us, answering questions and fielding requests straight through our wedding day. From the customization of our menu and signature cocktails to the alteration of our wedding day timeline and the floorplan of the tables in the Bristol Room (and everything in between), the staff at The Rockleigh made it their goal to simply see us happy...no fuss, no stress...and in this wedding-planning process, something that simple goes a LONG way!

From the food to the decor, The Rockleigh will be unmatched. Both the Bristol Room (where we had our wedding) and the Grand Pavilion are stunning rooms to hold your reception. The chandeliers are extremely elegant, yet not flashy, while the huge round dance floor really seems to welcome your guests in, rather than making them feel far away. The rooms come with LED lighting that can change to whatever color you'd like, allowing you to customize the look for any affair. And if you have an evening affair, get ready to take some show-stopping pictures in front of the gorgeous lit-up fountains.

But what truly sets The Rockleigh apart is the people. Bari, Melanie, Jamie and the whole staff are some of the kindest, warmest, most helpful and most attentive people you could ever hope to meet, let alone get to work with to plan your wedding. We knew we were in good hands all the way, with people who knew everything that needed to be done to make our day special. They make it their mission to make sure the bride and groom have little to no stress on their wedding day (and even in the days leading up to it). Colón, our maître d, along with the bridal attendants, Brayan and Daniella, could not have been more helpful and attentive on the day of. Everything was kept on-time and on-track (and if you have a signature cocktail like we did, expect a fresh one at your seat every time you leave the dance floor!).


Simply put, choosing The Rockleigh was the best decision we made during our wedding planning process! We will remember the beauty of our venue through pictures and videos forever, but we'll mostly remember how they made us feel like family. You will not be disappointed in choosing The Rockleigh for any affair...I'd even go as far as to say you'd be extremely lucky to say you had it there! They are simply the best!

Our Rockleigh wedding (October 2024) was everything we could have ever dreamed of and more. From the day we toured the venue, Bari and Melanie (the dream team!) were spectacular in helping us plan our big day. I could not even think of questions to ask because everything was answered already and laid out for us with ease in the planning process. Leading up to the big day, Bari and Melanie were extremely responsive and helpful, reassuring us that everything would be perfect the day of the wedding - and it truly was! On the day of the wedding, the ENTIRE staff was nothing short of first class, and all of our guests cannot stop raving about the food and stellar service. From start to finish, the Rockleigh staff did not miss a beat and had every detail nailed perfectly. We dropped off some items to be set up the day before the wedding and everything was set up even more beautifully than we could have imagined. Even the day after our wedding, we were greeted with mimosas as the staff helped us load items into our car. Such a nice touch!

Our assigned Rockleigh day-of coordinator, Sandra, was so spectacular and made me feel so comfortable the entire day. She was prepared with a fix for EVERYTHING - she helped steam my dress, fix my bustle and dress straps, had fashion tape on hand for a dress mishap, and even fixed a button that broke off my husband’s pants before the reception. She also brought amazing positive energy - our entire bridal party loved her. She is truly something special!!

Our guests cannot stop raving about the food, especially the amazing cocktail hour. The Rockleigh had one of every item from cocktail hour waiting for us in our suite after the ceremony which was such a nice touch. They even set up tables with the same food items for our parents so that they could greet guests with ease. Our signature cocktails were also done perfectly. It was easy for our guests to get drinks all night with awesome service at both the bars and tables.

The beauty of the venue speaks for itself - everything at the Rockleigh is impeccable. The grounds were beautifully landscaped where our outdoor ceremony was held and the bright and airy indoor spaces were just perfect. My bridesmaids and I did the early arrival package where we were able to get ready in a beautiful suite overlooking the fountain with delicious breakfast and lunch provided.

As a type A perfectionist myself, I am not easy to please, but I can honestly say my husband and I have 0 complaints about the Rockleigh. From the planning to the day of and even after the wedding, everything was more perfect than we could have imagined. We are so grateful and highly recommend booking the Rockleigh for a wedding!

I am a perfectionist and hard task master, not one to easily lavish praise. However, this letter is a necessary exception. The efforts of every Rockleigh staff member command praise because every aspect of my daughter’s wedding was carried out perfectly according to plan.

The professionalism of the Rockleigh staff is unparalleled in my experience. Every guest was treated royally, their needs were met as well as exceeded, and the atmosphere created by the staff was contagious in positively impacting all vendors.

I couldn’t be happier in the afterglow of my daughter’s wedding, and I know she and my new son-in-law as well as the parents of the groom feel the same way. If we were to plan the wedding again, we would change nothing.

My advice is the same to anyone else seeking to plan their loved one’s wedding. The Rockleigh is a beautiful venue, but more importantly the professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment of staff to making the event run smoothly is what sets it apart from the competition.

With sincere gratitude,

The Father of the Bride

My daughter and son- in- law recently had their wedding reception at the Rockleigh and I simply do not know where to start. Anyone who enters the Rockleigh can see it's a beautiful venue. Anyone who attends an event at the Rockleigh will tell you the food is excellent and plentiful. Drinks will blow your guest away; they are still talking about the espresso martinis. What you may not know about the Rockleigh however, is this experience the Rockleigh staff will take you through from the start of your day to the end. Somehow you and guest will be transported to a place and time where you will be made to feel as if your wedding is the only event happening in the World at that moment in time. You, your family and guest will be the center of attention. No need unmet no detail overlooked. We opted to get ready at the Rockleigh arriving in the early morning for hair and makeup and were met with a beautiful breakfast, followed by a lunch as we were spoiled by our Bridal attendants. The suites were luxurious and only further made us feel as if we had landed in a fairy tale. Every bride no matter how big or small of the event dreams of the perfect day and while the food, drinks and service matter I can tell you there is something about the Rockleigh that just goes beyond anything you could expect, hope for, dream of. It truly was an experience of a lifetime and Iam from the bottom of my heart so grateful to all the staff of the Rockleigh.

Absolutely beautiful. Their brand new salon was a dream to use for your bridal party to get ready and it was my favorite part of the day. The staircase was gorgeous and there were so many places outside to take photos too.
We worked with Bari and Melanie for a little over a year when we booked the venue. Bari was our wedding coordinator who showed us around and booked the place. We really liked her and she was great with responding to emails and playing around with dates for us when we toyed around with changing the date. However, the past eight months leading up to the wedding we worked with Melanie who is her assistant. Melanie was beyond helpful, we did our tasting with her, she responded to emails so promptly, and anytime we wanted to come back to the venue, she was more than happy to let us come as many times as we wanted.
That being said, we were extremely happy with Melanie and everything leading up to the wedding day. However, we thought it was a little bit distasteful the amount of times it was brought up to leave such a ginormous tip, and even receiving an email telling us how much of a tip to leave with them (which I’m sure is an automatic or automated email.)
But the night of the wedding, I was asked during my own wedding if there were more tip envelopes, my father was asked as well, and it was just extremely distasteful. We had tips sorted out for everybody and if we had wanted to go back the next day and finish tipping, they really shouldn’t have been asking us that during our wedding. Very tacky.
The second thing that was a real bother, was that Bari told us so many times very dramatically how we would have bridal attendance waiting on us hand and foot. We paid for the package to get ready and stay there the whole day. It was very hard for me to even find somebody that morning to get me an espresso or if we wanted a bagel heat it up.. just a little things that my sister ended up being my bridal attendant for the whole morning. Even for the guys, my husband said it was the same thing. I don’t like how they promise bridal attendance for you and then there really wasn’t anyone around to help us until night time. It didn’t really bother me or ruin the day by any means, but it shouldn’t have been something they sold us on.
We paid for a package to have breakfast and lunch too, and it was good, but I wouldn’t say it was a LOT of food.
I wouldn’t change a thing about getting married at the Rockleigh, however, there were just a few things that rubbed us the wrong way.

Let me start off by saying WOW! My husband Mitul and I recently got married July of this year, we had in mind on what we wanted. So, finding a venue that could accommodate and meet what we were looking for was the main goal! We saw some venues but nothing compared to the Rockleigh! When we walked in we both had this feeling that this was the place we would be bringing our loved ones to celebrate our marriage. Like the saying “when you know you know” and that we did. We worked with Jeff and Natalie and they made the experience so fun and really got a grasp on what we wanted! They made the process so easy for us and really listened to every question and concern. I will never forget when Jeff told us there’s no experience like the Rockleigh experience and boy he was not joking when he said that! Every person in the Rockleigh was attentive and made sure we had the upmost experience they did everything for us! From the moment we walked in the morning of our wedding we were greeted by staff who unloaded our luggage from the cars for us, made sure our bags were accounted for and that’s when the Rockleigh experience really began. The staff displayed all of mine and my husbands outfits in a room, steam pressed and hung all of our outfits! Had all of our bridesmaids and groomsmen outfits out along with our families. I mean cmon?! I couldn’t believe it! Everyone was super friendly and made sure everything was perfect! Everyone at the Rockleigh had a goal and that was to make sure my husband and I along with our families had a stress free day and they did not disappoint! Whenever we needed something someone was always there being one step ahead of the game. The service was top notch service I truly believe you won’t find that anywhere else. The FOOD was outstanding!!! Being that we had an Indian/American wedding we wanted everyone to have a taste of both cultures. We were blending two families and becoming one. Everyone to this day still talks about our wedding. The main thing everyone talks about and says “this was the best cocktail hour we’ve ever been to. And do you see how many chandeliers there are??” “We were greeted with champagne then I walk into cocktail hour and I’m being handed an old fashioned” “This is the best venue and wedding we’ve ever been to!!!” Natalie and Jeff are nothing short of amazing and if I could I would relive our wedding a million times over. Natalie and Jeff are by far the best people we have ever gotten the pleasure to work with and I promise you not IF but WHEN you have your wedding at the Rockleigh you will not be disappointed. There is so many more great things I can write about the Rockleigh, and the staff but I seem I can’t fit everything in. But all I do know is the Rockleigh experience is top tier white glove service and everyone there is always watching and making sure you are all taken care of!! Not to mention, they sewed my husbands button back on his tux when it fell off during cocktail hour! You don’t get that treatment anywhere else! We truly loved everyone there and we are so thankful and blessed we got to share what we feel was the most perfect day. Natalie, Jeff, and all the staff at the Rockleigh we love you we appreciate you and thank you for making our fairytale wedding come true! 10/10 everyone should have their fairytale moment at the Rockleigh it’s an experience of a lifetime!! Jaid and Mitul Patel :)

The Rockleigh was our dream wedding venue, and truly exceeded all of our expectations. We toured almost every venue in northern and central NJ, and the Rockleigh stood out above all others. The staff at the Rockleigh are well-versed in Indian weddings (their bridal attendants can even drape saris!. Our coordinator, Bari, was phenomenal in making sure every detail was executed to perfection. We cannot recommend the Rockleigh enough - their professionalism, quality of service, and communication were top-notch. They truly were our BEST vendor and we could not be happier that we chose the Rockleigh for our wedding.

I could not recommend the rockleigh enough. service and food was amazing and the guests were so impressed! i wish i could do it all over again!

Where do I begin? We had our wedding at the Rockleigh on 9/13/2024. It was the most beautiful and best night of our lives. Not only for us, but our guests said the same thing. My wife's Maitre'd, Daniella, was there for every moment of the day. Anything that she needed she was there with no questions asked! Jeff and Natalie were the perfect coordinators and were with us from the time we booked to the day of our wedding! Tony was a huge help during the night and anything we needed he was there. If you want the best wedding, book with the ROCKLEIGH! Everything is top notch there; drinks, food, experience!

My wife and I recently had our Persian wedding at The Rockleigh, and it was an absolute dream come true. From the moment we first walked through the doors, and met Jeff Spivack and Zara Khayatian we knew we had found the perfect place to celebrate our special day.

The venue’s stunning ambiance and elegant décor perfectly complemented the traditional Persian elements we wanted to include in our ceremony and reception. The flexibility of having our timeline planning, beautifully landscaped gardens, charming cocktail hours set up, having special "Tah-digh" and "chayi & shiririni irooni" created a magical atmosphere that was both sophisticated and inviting.

We cannot thank the staff enough for their incredible support and professionalism. Jeff & Zara, in particular, were true gem. Their attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond ensured that every aspect of our wedding was flawless. They seamlessly integrated our traditional Persian rituals into the event, which made the day even more special for us and our guests.

One of the highlights was "the exquisite catering that included a variety of traditional Persian Tea, Pastry & sweet", "Sofreh-Aghd", "Specific Tah-digh Recipe by Zara". It was clear that the team at The Rockleigh is dedicated to creating a memorable experience for their clients.

In summary, we would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a venue that combines elegance, personal touch, and expert service.

Thank you, Jeff & Zara, for making our wedding day so perfect!

The Rockleigh was stupendous. Their staff anticipated our needs and were highly communicative to ensure that we could fully soak in the joy of our wedding day. They went above and beyond even our greatest hopes for what the wedding and reception could feel like.

We got married at The Rockleigh last month and it was the most amazing night of our lives. From the moment we walked in, Bari made our experience so special and only got better from there. There was support and communication every step of the way, which helped ease our minds and made the overall planning less stressful. We couldn’t have asked for better food, better coordination, or a more beautiful venue. Our guests are still raving about their experience. Every single person was amazing to work with- Bari, Melanie, Jamie, Tony, Carlos, Gloria and the whole Rockleigh team are truly amazing at what they do and we are forever grateful to them. If you are looking for the best of the best wedding venue, look no further!

Attended family wedding 6/14/2024. What seemed like a perfect venue had easily turned into a problem due to a predicted rain storm forthcoming. Storm kept knocking out power, where management seemed ill-prepared on how to resolve the issue in a timely manner. Many of us were very surprised that such an extraordinary venue as the Rockleigh would not have an emergency generator backup system. Guests waited standing in the lobby for approximately 2 1/2 - 3 hours past the scheduled 6:30pm wedding ceremony with only wine & champagne offered, no quick seating to be brought in, no updates as to what was happening. It took well over the first hour for staff to hand out mini bottled waters to guests who were sweating, a few candles brought in to add some lighting. What was suppose to have been the scheduled 7:30pm Cocktail Hour, guests continued to remain in the lobby with nowhere to sit, & nothing to drink but the wine, champagne, & the mini bottled waters. It wasn't until my husband complained to staff for Open Bar drink orders to be taken, as this was suppose to be Cocktail Hour. I don't understand why management couldn't organize for staff to bring out Cocktail Hour appetizers on platters - while guests were all still standing & waiting. The appetizers were all prepared for a scheduled 7:30pm Cocktail Hour, yet management didn't think of improvising with the already prepared food? The wedding ceremony finally took place approximately 9/9:30pm. Cocktail Hour immediately followed, with everyone rushing to eat to try to stay on some kind of schedule. Dinner wasn't served until approximately 11:30pm. The shuttle buses back to the hotel had to be rescheduled to leave the Rockleigh at 1:30am. Many of us barely ate our dinners due to how late everything started. Several of us left the Reception at 12:45am - (before wedding cake/dessert/coffee/tea was even served), as we were too exhausted & caught a car ride back to the hotel.
While one cannot control the weather, the Rockleigh management could have - should have been better prepared to handle the expected rain storm.
I just read that the Rockleigh had a fire during Summer 2022, starting with a boiler, causing all events - including weddings to be postponed immediately, and for that weekend.
My heart goes out to the bride & groom's & their immediate families, who have been planning their special day for a long time, as well as spending a huge amount of money.
In my opinion, the Rockleigh owes a huge partial refund.

Our wedding was on 11/25/2023 and we’ll never get over it. From the moment we walked in to tour this stunning venue, we knew it was the one. Zara worked with us from the beginning to the very end and truly made us feel so at peace throughout the planning process and on our wedding day. The warmth we felt from each and every staff member was like nothing we’ve experienced before. Our guests were blown away by the exceptional food & drinks and are still raving about it all to us. Our wedding was truly top notch thanks to all the Rockleigh provided, having attended many weddings, the service here is unmatched. I hope our future children get married here someday! The only things I’m really sad about are that 1. we can’t do it again and 2. The Rockleigh isn’t a restuarant that I could dine at! But thankfully we have the very best memories to look back on. ❤️

Our wedding day at The Rockleigh was nothing short of a fairytale, and it's all thanks to the exceptional team and stunning venue. From the moment we first visited The Rockleigh, we were captivated by its charm and elegance, as well as their amazing service. On our wedding day, The Rockleigh exceeded our expectations. The coordination and execution of every aspect were flawless. The staff was attentive, courteous, and went above and beyond to ensure that both the bridal party and guests had a seamless and enjoyable experience. Michael, Jeff, Natalie, Tony, and the bridal attendants were beyond amazing and made our day so special. The culinary experience at The Rockleigh is second to none. The food was exquisite, and our guests raved about the abundance of delicious menu. From cocktail hour, to all the different courses, desserts, and after party food, every dish was expertly prepared and beautifully presented.

Our wedding at The Rockleigh was a day filled with love, joy, and cherished memories, and it's all thanks to the venue's exceptional team. They created an atmosphere that made our wedding truly magical and unforgettable.

I wholeheartedly recommend The Rockleigh to anyone seeking a magnificent venue for their wedding. It's a place where dreams come true, and the staff's commitment to making your day perfect shines through every step of the way.

Thank you, The Rockleigh, for providing us with a wedding day beyond our wildest dreams. We will forever treasure the memories created at your beautiful venue.

I want to preface my review by saying I have NEVER written a poor review online about any company, I really don’t believe in doing so. But I want to save future couples the nightmare the Rockleigh has put us through from happening to anyone else.

To make a very very long story short – I was supposed to get married the week that Covid hit in 2020. All of our guests canceled and a state of emergency was declared. The wedding could not happen. The Rockleigh then charged us fees that were not in our contract and through the next year or 2 were absolutely horrible to deal with. When our friends in similar situations had their venues work with them, the Rockeigh provided us fraudulent permits (as confirmed with the NJ DOH) in order to charge us huge fees to move our wedding if we refused to have an “illegal” wedding.

We were ultimately out of pocket many many thousands of dollars to the Rockleigh for a wedding that never happened and for no reason whatsoever – they lost no money (in fact they received PPP funding). Just to show how greedy and slimey they are, when we tried to reschedule our Saturday night wedding they told us they were fully booked on Saturday nights for a long time, BUT, they were still going to charge us several thousands of dollars to move our wedding anyway (to a non-Saturday). When it suited them they said they were hurting financially, but then they said they were fully booked and operational – they say what they need to in order to get their clients to pay more money for no reason. Just horrible.

Now, YEARS later, and despite the fact that they received MANY thousands of dollars for a wedding that never happened, they are SUING my family, with an infamously shady collections lawyer, to try to get the full cost of the wedding! In my opinion this is the slimiest most disgusting thing a business could do.

There are MANY other details and examples of how horrible this business is.
At every opportunity they will look at you like a dollar sign, not a valued client.
If everything goes perfectly you will probably have a great wedding. But just know, if there is any hiccup they will treat you like the enemy and probably sue you.

You are better off having your wedding at any of the similar venues, which I know, treated their clients that were in the same situation I was in, like human beings, like valued clients – not like dollar signs.
