Venue Features
The scene:

Nestled within the picturesque rolling hills of Sussex County, Bear Brook Valley is a hidden gem located in a private, gated community. Your guests will be greeted by a modern-rustic building, surrounded by beautiful natural waterfalls, a serene vineyard, and lush greenery. Outdoor ceremonies can be held in front of the heart-shaped pond, or under the chic carport on rainy days. Indoor ceremonies take place in the bright and airy ballroom, offering stunning views of the property.

Design:

Bear Brook Valley has undergone a transformation from a golf club to a farmhouse-chic wedding venue. With floor-to-ceiling windows in the ballroom, an industrial-rustic cocktail hour space, and an upscale-barn-style bridal suite, it's the perfect setting to celebrate today's couples.

Standout venue features:

Bear Brook Valley hosts only one wedding each day, providing one comprehensive wedding package that includes premium open bar service, an innovative menu that blends global flavors, trendy drinks, and classic dishes, and on-site as well as day-of coordination services to ensure everything runs smoothly.

Extra perks:

Bear Brook Valley offers a truly all-inclusive package that includes a range of amenities to make your special day unforgettable. Take advantage of our dressing rooms, day-of coordinator & maitre d', valet parking, 48 draft beer lines, red & white wine on each table, custom wedding cake, a selection of decor, and more! Bear Brook Valley couples are invited to attend a food tasting before their wedding. We also host an event in which married couples are invited back to the venue to relive their wedding experience!
