This job is near or in the area of Andover, Nj 07821. The team at Crossed Keys Estate made my dreams come true. And you did such a great job with every little detail. I also appreciated the fact that Jessica helped worked within our budget for flowers/decor and I never felt pressure to add more or upgrade. - The food was absolutely the best wedding food I've had - we had the chilean sea bass which I highly recommend. The day of the wedding arrived and the weather forecast called for thunderstorms and HAIL (Yes, HAIL!) I couldn't thank this family enough for everything they did for our wedding! Working with Katherine and Jessica could not have been more delightful. :). It was a short walk to the playhouse were the bridal party got ready. There was nothing that could stop us from making the day as perfect as possible for you guys. That set such an awkward and uncomfortable tone for our very first tour and opinion of the property and management. We had an amazing experience with Katherine and Jessica at Crossed Keys. Our guest many of them also mentioned how the food was cooked to perfection and that is not an easy task for 160 guest. What we didn't realize, was that the the actual location was only half the reason that makes Crossed Keys so special. Wedding end time was 9pm, bartender stopped serving at 8:45 and refused to provide WATER! The cocktail hour and dinner food was excellent. As father of the bride, I can say I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Crossed Keys. Her and her team know the industry inside and out and deliver with top notch quality. The day of turned out to be beautiful just like she said it would! Then another one came for the after partiers. In the end, we are so glad we chose Crossed Keys as our venue and hope this review helps other couples looking for a beautiful outdoor setting for their magical day. 0. We pulled u... We will never ever forget our Estee and this special wedding. We received so many compliments about the delicious appetizers, the entrees, and desserts.

The food was amazing, and had our guests raving as well. Also, We had our rehearsal dinner at the Crossed Keys Inn- another wonderful event and delicious meal. This included wedding day making sure I was eating and drinking during the cocktail hour and reception and that guests were happy. Thank you for the review! But go see it for yourself, it's even better in person. Also, I did not want to get the upgraded chairs and tables, but my wife won that item, and I must admit she was right. Jessica & Katherine took care of every detail with precision and love, they really brought our vision alive. We really can’t thank Jessica and the team at Crossed Keys enough for making this the best day ever. I told Jessica the theme and specifics of what I wanted, a country chic wedding, and she ran with it. Thank you so much for the review Laura! Definitely take advantage of this and get some people in the loop. The staff is totally devoted to you having the best time ever. This business truly is our passion and the people we work with always become a part of our family.
