It’s been a week since our wedding day and my husband and I are still riding high from the amazing time we had. That is all thanks to Rock Island and their impeccable team. Rock Island was the first venue we looked into a few weeks after we were engaged. We knew the moment we walked in through the front doors and met with Jason that this was the place we were going to be married. The venue is light, airy, and absolutely stunning. The food is phenomenal and plentiful (our guests are still talking about it). Throughout the planning process we worked with Heather; not only was she poised and professional, but we felt like she became a member of our family. She was communicative and proactive every step of the way. We felt taken care of and important. Rock Island was accommodating and wonderful to work with. They literally brought my wedding day vision to life in a way I never dreamed possible. I know that every bride thinks their day is perfect, but mine truly was. My dreams literally came true on August 11th. Not only were we so impressed with the professionalism and level of amazing service, but our guests were also. Rock Island has a way of making everyone who is part of your day feel important. We didn’t have to worry about anything during the day of our wedding, which allowed me to be calm and cool the entire day. During our day there were so many staff members who took care of anything and everything we needed. We added the bridal suite package to our wedding which was one of the best decisions we made. My bridesmaids and I got to relax and enjoy each other’s company while also getting our hair and makeup done at the venue. We had an amazing bridal attendant, Tina, who anticipated all of our needs. She made sure that we were fed, had music to listen to, our dresses were steamed and hung up properly, and got us any beverage - alcohol or not - that we wanted. She was a doll and we all absolutely loved her. During our ceremony Jessica was amazing with coordinating all of our details as well as making sure our officiant and ceremony musician had everything they needed. Throughout the day Jason and Mike checked in on us, made sure we had food and beverages and kept us apprised of what would be happening next. And Michael attended to my husband and me during our reception, constantly making sure we both had everything we needed. While everyone we worked with was absolutely wonderful, I cannot say enough about Jason, our Maitre d’. We had the utmost confidence in him throughout our day. His professionalism and wonderful personality eased my nerves and stress and allowed me to be fully present. I was able to take in our whole day and remember each moment, because I knew he had everything under control. At the end of the night (after the wedding), they boxed up the top of our cake and all of our ceremony and reception items, washed our toasting flutes, took care of the bouquets that were left behind, and had everything ready for us the day after our wedding to pick up. We didn’t need to worry about anything at all and I believe that allowed us to be present in our day with each other and our guests. To say thank you is just not enough. Words cannot fully express how grateful we are for our wedding at Rock Island. We would not hesitate to recommend this venue and its team to anyone looking to celebrate the biggest day of their lives.

I never thought that I would find myself thinking about my wedding venue and its staff almost a year after my wedding, but I do every day. To say that Rock Island Lake Club and the beautiful people that make it up simply deliver "quality service" is the biggest understatement. I have never met a group of people more happy, more generous, more hospitable, more willing to serve, and more loving than the crew at Rock Island. I can honestly say my wedding day was the best day of my life, and I owe so much of that to Rock Island. From the second my fiance and I stepped in the door to the moment my husband and I ran out through a tunnel of sparklers, Rock Island treated us as family. I gladly handed over all of my bridal responsibilities to them with no doubt in my mind that they would bring my dream wedding to life. I will never forget how I felt that day - so loved, blessed, and carefree - and I owe so much of that to these guys. The beautiful ballroom overlooking the lake, the overwhelmingly delicious assortment of foods at cocktail hour, and the whimsical ceremony location with the dainty birch arbor speak for themselves - but a wedding venue is nothing if you arent treated well, respected, and valued by its staff. So Rock Island Crew, this review goes out to you guys - THANK YOU!

We had our wedding reception at Rock Island Lake Club back in August and couldn’t be happier with our choice! When we first saw the venue, we knew it was for us. Great food and outdoor space were musts and Rock Island delivers on both and so much more. We worked primarily with Heather and she’s amazing! We had a few concerns throughout the planning process, but she assured us we had nothing to worry about and she was right! Jason was our maître d and was super helpful; he really ensured our day went smoothly and ensured that we had everything we needed. Amazing service is one of the top reasons I recommend Rock Island. We had family and friends from SC attend the wedding and they raved about how gorgeous the venue was (they couldn’t believe it was NJ), how friendly the wait staff was, and of course how good the food was. Our local family and friends commented that the wait staff was the best of any wedding they’d been to and also loved the venue and food. In summary, if you’re looking for a gorgeous venue with good food and great service book now. Rock Island isn’t your standard NJ banquet hall and you won’t regret your decision!

This club is located on the edge of a nice pond in a quiet area. Staff was very polite and very good, which complimented the amazing food. The filet was top quality and perfectly cooked, followed by a large variety of desserts, all which were great! Very nice place for pictures on the water and nice views while eating. Really enjoyed the experience here and would recommend it to anyone looking to hold an event, just keep in mind the dining room seemed on the smaller side, limiting the size of a party.

I was looking at this place to be the venue for my wedding reception. It is BEAUTIFUL and Jamie was awesome during my tour and email before and after my tour of the location. Especially considering I am the type to ask a million questions. Great views and it would be an awesome place for a party of any kind. Unfortunately, it is very expensive for the September wedding my fiance and I want.
