“Our wedding at Essex Club was everything we could have hoped for and more. From start to finish, the entire day was beautiful, seamless, and so much fun. The planning process was far less stressful than we ever expected, especially considering we planned our wedding in just 5½ months. Jessica, the General Manager and Wedding Coordinator, was fantastic throughout the entire process. She was knowledgeable, organized, calm, and incredibly easy to work with. Her guidance, patience, and attention to detail helped make the months leading up to our wedding feel manageable and enjoyable. As a bride, I was incredibly nervous before walking down the aisle, but Julissa and Rob were absolutely amazing. They went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly and that we felt cared for throughout the day. Julissa, our Bridal Attendant, even put cornstarch on my feet in the bridal suite so I wouldn’t slip out of my shoes—a small gesture that perfectly captures the level of attention and care she provided! Rob was a fantastic Maitre D’, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how wonderful he was. The weather was perfect, the food was delicious, the flowers were beautiful, and the décor was set up exactly as we envisioned. Every detail was handled with care, allowing us to truly enjoy our wedding and spend time with our family and friends. Our guests had an amazing time, and we danced and sang the night away. We are so grateful to the entire Essex Club team for their kindness, patience, professionalism, and hard work. Thank you for giving us such a magical wedding day. We wholeheartedly recommend Essex Club to any couple looking for a beautiful venue and an exceptional team.”

“I can not say enough good things about this amazing venue! From our first chat in 2024 through our wedding day in 2026 they exceeded all our expectations. Rob answered my message right away, I had 3 amazing walk throughs with both him and TK prior to booking because I needed to weigh every possible option, and every other team member we met along the way felt like they were just as excited for our wedding day as we were. I can not even remember how many times I called to ask little questions like what time dinner would be served and every person that answered was either able to immediately give me an answer or would get someone who could. On our wedding day every staff member were the most caring and supportive people we could have ever asked for. Nick was our captain and made sure every moment of the day followed my vision. Morgan and Paige were our bridal attendants and over a month later my husband and I still talk about how much we loved them. They both anticipated anything we could possibly need before we needed it and checked on us all night long. My husband asked if anyone had matches and they magically appeared. I mentioned that my dress strap was cutting into me and a few moments later I was offered 3 possible solutions (which worked for the entire night). Every guest can not stop raving about the food and how beautiful the entire party was. They made sure everything we wanted happened and made sure to pull us aside to take a moment to breathe. We can not wait to attend an event as a guest!”

“Let me start by saying it’s been almost 2 weeks since our wedding at Stonebridge and Matt and I are still on a high! What made us love Stonebridge was the openness of the ballroom with all the beautiful windows. It didn’t feel like your typical ballroom, it felt open and airy. We started the planning process with the lovely Diana who made us feel so comfortable. Whether it was planning details or asking questions, we always left conversations with Diana feeling so excited! She really brings the energy and makes you feel so special. She has an eye for what works, what doesn’t and gives you the best tips and tricks. We are so grateful we had Diana throughout this process!! I HIGHLY recommend getting ready at Stonebridge’s beautiful, gigantic bridal suite the morning of the wedding. My mom, bridesmaids, flower girls and I were so obsessed with all the space to get ready, multiple bathrooms, bedrooms and the windows (they brought in so much light the pictures are amaaaaazing!) I had 3 girls doing our hair and 4 girls doing makeup, my mom and I, 14 bridesmaids, 1 MOH, and 2 flowers girls and we had more than enough room to get ready. Since we had an army of girls I loved that we were able to get there early. We were greeted by Dee the bridal attendant who made sure we had a smooth, fun morning. She was very attentive to us girls and ready with champagne whenever! Terrence is the MAN! Best maitre d hands down. He made sure everything ran smoothly with timing and always kept us hydrated with drinks and water on the dance floor. He truly brings the energy and makes sure you have the best day! We had so much fun with him! Diana, Terrence, Dee and the wait staff truly made our day feel like a dream! They went above and beyond and made sure every detail no matter how big or small was cared for. We are forever grateful for the most perfect day. Our family and friends raveddddd about the delicious food, cocktail room, ballroom and just overall how warm and beautiful Stonebridge was. THANK YOU STONEBRIDGE!”
