Congratulations to Tara & Ilya!

They had a romantic garden wedding ceremony followed by a reception at The Skylands Manor on April 13, 2012.  It was a gorgeous spring day at the NJ Botanical Gardens with tree buds blooming, string players setting the romantic mood, and a very happy Bride and Groom.

See more of Tara & Ilya's amazing wedding photographs created by Erin H. Photography on our Facebook Page and read about their love story and fantastic, first-hand event planning tips on their very own wedding website.

Springtime has arrived!  Nestled in the New Jersey Botanical Gardens, this is a wonderful season to tour the grounds and plan an overnight or weekend stay at Skylands Manor. The trees are budding, flowers are blooming and the sun is staying out longer into the evenings.

Our dedicated event specialist, Linda Pergola (973.962.9370), can also assist you if you are interested in planning your dream wedding at this gorgeous venue.

Last Saturday, Jerry Frungillo led a group of his friends on a unique St. Patrick's Day Crawl through two of our very special venues. They started with dinner and drinks at our historic B&B, The Inn at Millrace Pond (Hope, NJ), which was hopping with guests celebrating the Irish holiday. We were very proud to set a new record that evening for the highest number of dinner guests at The Inn since purchasing the establishment in September of 2010 ~ Erin Go Bragh!

"Miss McCutie" was one of our most festive guests...how adorable is she? Jerry himself went full-on Irish ordering the delicious homemade corn beef and cabbage special-of-the-day paired with a chocolate stout. The guests at his table made selections from both the holiday and house dinner menus. As always, the Grilled Atlantic Salmon towering over steamed spinach and hand-mashed potatoes in buerre blanc sauce received many raved reviews...it is sooo delectable....
