We’re growing and we couldn’t be more excited to share the news!

Very soon, our Connecticut Wedding Group family will open the doors to a brand-new office space, located just across the street from our highly anticipated Riverbend venue in Higganum, CT. This expansion marks an exciting milestone in our journey to make wedding planning even more seamless, personal, and accessible for our couples.

When you're planning a wedding, one of the biggest decisions you’ll make is choosing your venue. It sets the tone for your entire celebration, so how do you find the one? We’ve helped thousands of couples answer that question, and we’ve learned a thing or two along the way. Here’s our no-fluff, straight-from-the-heart advice for choosing a venue that feels right for you.

When you hear “Lyman Orchards,” your first thought might be apple picking, crisp autumn days, or a round of golf on the pristine course. But hidden within this well-loved Middlefield gem is one of Connecticut’s most breathtaking wedding venues.

At Connecticut Wedding Group, we’re lucky to partner with Lyman Orchards to create an experience that’s far from ordinary. And while, yes, it’s a working golf course, the moment you arrive at our private event space, you’ll feel like you’ve been transported to a secret slice of Connecticut, framed by rolling hills, golden light, and peaceful quiet.

If you've ever dreamed of hosting your wedding at a place that feels like a movie set, prepare to fall in love with The Great Hall at Monmouth University: a breathtaking, historic wedding venue in New Jersey.

This iconic Beaux-Arts mansion, located just minutes from the Jersey Shore, has played a starring role in films like The Great Gatsby and Annie. But with the help of Frungillo Hospitality Group, it becomes the romantic, one-of-a-kind setting for your love story.
