Kaitlyn F. Sent on 10/07/2023Phenomenal Venue!
We got married at Windows on the Water at Frogbridge on 9/9/23 and there are not enough words to highlight how truly wonderful this venue is! When my husband and I started looking, we knew we wanted something unique and not a ballroom. From the first time we saw it, it checked off every box and then some. The grounds are STUNNING and we really liked the different spaces for each event of the night (ceremony/cocktail hour/reception). Jim & Danielle made the entire planning process easy. They were always reachable and so accommodating! As bride, you always worry about rain, and of course it rained most of our day. But the WOTW team really came through with back up plans to make sure we had everything we needed and were able to get all the photos we wanted despite the rain. We left the rain plan for the ceremony up to them and our vendors and at the last minute made the decision we could have the ceremony outside and made all the adjustments (drying chairs, moving the arch etc) which we were so grateful for! The whole evening was absolutely AMAZING! They have a ton of staff and everything went perfect. Jim was there for the evening and kept checking in with us and our parents. He genuinely wants you to be able to enjoy your wedding night and it really shows. We always felt taken care of and our guests expressed they did as well! The food was spectacular and everyone raved about it. From cocktail hour, to dinner to dessert, it was all amazing. We cannot thank Jim, Danielle & the entire Window on the Water at Frogbridge staff enough for our beautiful wedding! photocredit: Ashley Mac Photographs (also AMAZING) -

Amazing! 10/10
Danielle, Jim and the entire staff at Windows on the water FB outdid themselves! You can feel they genuinely care about you and your guest and prioritize every little detail! As busy as you are they helped you remain calm, cool and collective. Everything went so smooth, and EVERYTHING was beautiful. Jim kept taking the time to make sure me and my husband ate throughout the night. The food was amazing and over the top, everyone raved about it the whole time! We kept receiving compliments about the venue and how they have never been to a wedding with such an amazing set up and view. 10/10!!! -

Trish F. Sent on 04/04/2024Amazing venue & amazing food
My husband and I had our wedding reception at Windows on the Water at Frogbridge in June of 2023 and it went above and beyond every expectation that we had. All the NJ wedding venues that we toured before Frogbridge (6 total) were either country clubs or over the top ballrooms, and we couldn’t find a place that felt right. I wanted somewhere with natural beauty (with both indoor and outdoor spaces,) not over the top (but definitely not inelegant,) and somewhere with amazing food. My only hesitation with booking Frogbridge was that my brother-in-law and sister-in-law got married there in 2017 (before I met my husband) and I felt like I should have ‘my own venue’ since that was ‘their place’. Looking back I realize that was silly and I’m thankful that my in-laws spoke so highly of WOTW @ Frogbridge and convinced me to check it out on my own.
In November 2021, I met with Jim who gave me a tour of the Frogbridge grounds and I immediately fell in love and knew that it was the place for me. It was classy with both indoor space (which was recently renovated!) and stunning outdoor space. It was family-run, and it was the same chef from my in-laws wedding who I had heard about from my husband and in-laws for years about how amazing the food was. When I reached out a few days later to book, I didn’t have to beg for a date two years out like a lot of venues still backed up from Covid were making couples do, and when I had a problem with my church not confirming my ceremony date, they assured me that they would do whatever they could to secure a date that worked for us if we needed to change our original one. One of the things I loved was that all pricing was visible ONLINE. So many venues require you to meet in person so they can go over pricing for dates. Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, are all different prices but they are all listed directly on their website so you know exactly how much you will be paying, before you even take a tour. (Tax is included in that price so you’re not doing unnecessary math like some of these other venues require you to do.) Everything was upfront and honest. We also loved that we were in charge of supplying our own alcohol. We could pick exactly what we wanted and Frogbridge worked with a local vendor who helped us pick what we needed, took care of the delivery a few days prior, and returned all unopened cans/bottles after our wedding so we were only charged for what was used.
Wedding planning can be stressful but our WOTW Coordinator, Danielle, made everything so easy- from introducing us to vendors, to helping us pick our decor, and organizing and helping us with every single question we had. She was awesome and we loved working with her!
On our reception day, not only did the staff cater to us, the bride and groom - but they really made everyone in our wedding party, our families, and friends feel like they were receiving 5-star treatment. My family and friends still tell us how amazing the food was and how they loved sitting outside looking at the beautiful lake. I genuinely hope that one day one of my family members or friends gets married there so I can experience it all over again as a guest.
There were only a few minor complaints that we heard from our guests after the wedding. The valets were getting some cars mixed up. (When we heard it, we thought it was funny and definitely not the end of the world.) There was a mushroom ravioli vegetarian option on our sit-down dinner menu, but people who ordered that were not told that that was a misprint, and were brought a meal of grilled cauliflower and some other vegetables, so a few of our guests were bummed. A desk that I had brought in to put some decor on had gone missing. (WOTW offered to replace it, which was greatly appreciated.) Air conditioning in the tent was an extra charge, but we needed it for sure during our 90 degree weather day. (I wish it had just been included in the overall price, but again, not a huge deal. And it was explained from the beginning that it would be an additional charge to turn on, so in no way was I blindsided.) Please note that I would still pick this venue a million times over and that I only included these cons to be as transparent and honest in my review as possible.
Our wedding at Windows on the Water at Frogbridge was exceptional and truly one of the greatest days of our lives. Everything and everyone was so incredible throughout the entire process and we can’t recommend this venue enough! -

The most AMAZING wedding venue
My husband and I were thrilled with our wedding at Windows on the Water at Frogbridge. Jim, Danielle, and Colleen were absolutely phenomenal. Daniel and Jim worked well as a team and were accommodating with our requests and dietary restrictions.Colleen made sure the actual wedding day went exactly as planned. We couldn't have asked for more. The venue and scenery are stunning, the food was delicious, and the service was A +. Highly recommend. -

Dream venue
When shopping for a venue Windows on the Water really stuck out. From the moment we had our first tour to the day after our wedding the team was incredible.
My wife and I couldn’t be happier we landed on this amazing venue for our wedding! Not only are the views and various locations on the grounds picturesque but it’s staffed by some of the nicest and hardest working folks around. Jim, Danielle, and the whole team at Frogbridge were amazing to work with. They helped us figure out the best spot for our nuptials actually trying something new for the venue that we loved! Day of service was impeccable, the place was full of some of the most professional staff I’ve seen work a venue that large. The food was also AMAZING, so fresh and well seasoned. All of our guests are still raving about how beautiful the venue was and how amazing the service and food were.
If you’re looking for a venue don’t hesitate to choose Windows on the Water at Frogbridge. -

I seriously cannot rave enough about Windows on the Water Frogbridge. It was truly the most perfect place to have my wedding and they really helped make it a dream come true. The staff are so friendly and accommodating, they went out of their way time and time again to make the day special for us. When I arrived the day of, I was worried about where the ceremony site was set up, so they drove me out there to double check without a moments hesitation (it was perfect). The owner, Jim, is so welcoming and the bridal attendant, Colleen, was always right there to make sure I had everything I needed. The food was absolutely delicious, from cocktail hour all the way to dessert. And they offer so many options, we felt there was plenty for everybody to enjoy. And, of course, the venue itself! It’s gorgeous with so many scenic places for photos. Every one of our guests raved about how beautiful and unique the set up was and kept asking how we found it. With the lounge furniture out on the patio overlooking the lake, guests could get up and mingle and enjoy the night, without being stuck at their table. If you’re not into a traditional ballroom or the rustic barn look, Windows is the perfect place. The tent is really breathtaking, both during the day and all lit up at night, and also has AC! One of the main reasons we chose Windows was because their indoor ceremony set up was just as beautiful as the outdoor one, and I knew the pictures would still be perfect even if it rained on our day. Every single time my husband and I visited, I was struck by how beautiful Windows is and how kind the people who work there are. Seriously, the only downside is that I don’t get to visit anymore! -

Perfection
We visited Windows on the Water at Frogbridge after postponing our wedding date 3x due to Covid-19 restrictions on indoor venues. The moment we stepped onto the property, we felt this overwhelming feeling that this was the place that we were supposed to be married all along. Scott, Danielle, Nicole and team felt like family from the very beginning - and we somehow pulled off a beautiful wedding in less than 5 weeks. The night felt like a dream, and guests have not stopped raving about how fantastic the food was. This venue is top notch, and the grounds are so beautiful. 10/10! -

I don’t even know where to start! Everything was so amazing! Having our “I Do Part Two” at Windows on the Water at Frogbridge was the BEST decision we could have made. Due to the pandemic we couldn’t get married at our original venue in Philly, so on our original wedding day, we got married in my in-law’s backyard. We were looking forward to having our wedding celebration at the original venue in 2021, but our original venue cut off contact with us and we lost a lot of money. BUT one day we stumbled upon this beautiful gem known as Windows on the Water at Frogbridge and Scott and his team saved the day! We knew we wanted to have an outdoor wedding because we weren’t sure how restrictions would change for indoor venues. When we first toured Windows on the Water, we fell in love!! We knew WOTW was the place we should have chosen from the beginning. The grounds are absolutely stunning! There are many options as to where you can have your ceremony. Even the tent with the chandeliers was so beautiful. The bridal suite had lots of room and my husband and the groomsmen had a huge room to get ready in! The staff are the sweetest, hardest working people we’ve met! Scott acted as a wedding planner and helped me to get all my vendors, decor, details, etc. organized! Scott, Danielle, Nicole, Ashley, and Mr. Jim went out of their way to make sure the wedding was exactly what we dreamed! They really felt like family to us! And the food!!! The food is soooo good, I wish they had a separate restaurant with their recipes (and chef)! On the day of the celebration, Ashley and the team were so attentive and kept the day flowing so smoothly! Ashley packed up all my things for me at the end of the day! My dad was supposed to pull the truck around to the entrance so that we could load the stuff up, but he got stuck talking to some guests. Ashley went out of her way and wheeled my stuff over to my dads truck for us! We are so thankful to each and everyone at WOTW at Frogbridge for all your help and for every little detail! The day felt like a fairytale, it was everything we dreamt it’d be! Our guests are still talking about it. A lot of them mention how they thought cocktail hour was the main dinner since there was so much food! They were so surprised at the reception haha! If you are a future bride or groom looking to have an outdoor wedding, at least do yourself a favor and tour WOTW. Once you do, you’ll fall in love. I just feel so thankful that we were able to have such a wonderful celebration in such a beautiful place. The whole day was just SO perfect. Thank you again to everyone at WOTW for all of your hard work! We love you guys! -

Booking Windows on the Water at Frogbridge was by the far the best decision we made during our entire wedding process. We knew the second we walked into the beautiful tent that this would be where we get married, and two years later (thanks Covid), the day was everything we dreamed.
Scott and his team were the most supportive team I could have imagined and made you feel like family the second you walk in.
When we had to postpone due to COVID, Scott was on the phone with us everyday helping us make the best decision, all while being flexible and compassionate.
The wedding was flawless and beautiful - just as we imagined. If you're a couple looking for something unique and classy without being a typical reception-hall, this is the venue for you!
The staff, bridal attendants and maî·tre d catered to our every need. I felt sick halfway through the reception and I was immediately met with concern and glasses of water and juice.
and the FOOD! Simply the best. So many delicious options.
For anyone looking for a personal experience in a beautiful location, I would recommend them 10/10 times! Our guests are still raving about the lake and the food and asking how we found this "hidden gem." Thank you, WoW crew! -

A dream venue
I envisioned my wedding when I was a little girl. I'm very detailed oriented and I knew exactly what I wanted when we started looking for a wedding venue. As I'm sure many people experienced, costumer service when visiting venues is very poor. We felt like a business transaction.
EVERYTHING changed when we visited Windows on the water at frogbridge. We were told that same day that we would become part of the family and that has been true since day one. I cannot express enough how important it is to have a good team working with you. Wedding planning is stressful (especially during a pandemic) and the staff has acted as my personal planners, being on top of everything.
I have called Scott at random times during the weekends and he never failed to answer my phone calls. He assumed me throughout the process that everything would be taken care of. He understood everything that I wanted and somehow made it even better. It has been an honor to work with such a wonderful person.
I also worked with Nicole who is just so wonderful!! She was on top of everything detail and followed me around on the wedding day to make sure everything was just perfect.
I had guests text me over the over the top service from every single staff member. They made everyone feel so welcome and comfortable while providing outstanding service.
If you want amazing wedding pictures, the grounds at the venue are just spectacular. We were on site since the morning getting ready and it was just such a unique experience. We chose to have our ceremony there since it is such a romantic place.
I cannot say enough about the food. You will want to be the chefs best friend... just like everyone else, he will make you feel at home. He checked on us throughout the night to make sure we were happy. The food is EXCELLENT. Guests are still talking about it.
The reception space is just a dream. I booked the venue before even seeing the tent in person. I always wanted a tented wedding, but you honestly can convert the space into any style you want because the tent is just incredibly beautiful. Yet again, everyone who attended was in awe with how beautiful everything was. Sitting on the sweetheart table by the lake... with guests in the patio...and the amazing lighting throughout is truly amazing.
I wish I could do it all over again. Windows on the water at frogbridge truly gave me the wedding of my dreams... and I know they will continue to provide excellent service to every future bride. -

Take it from my guests: “This was the best wedding we’ve ever been to!” We heard that from so many people, and since our wedding took place during a pandemic, we think their words really speak volumes about how special this venue is. We found WotW after our original venue cancelled on us a few months out from our wedding and we still look at that cancellation as our biggest blessing in disguise because it brought us to this place!
Scott, Nicole, and Ashley are a true dream team. Scott is classy, professional, and will really help you relax in the days and weeks leading up to your event. He’s got it all under control! Nicole is an outstanding addition. She supported me with all the big and little details leading up to the big day, and set up all the décor exactly the way we discussed, making my pinterest board come to life! Ashley is the cherry on top. She helped us coordinate the ceremony walk, problem solve the timeline, and all the other little things you’d never think of yourself. Overall, the three of them went above and beyond every step along the way to make our dreams a reality (and with such short notice!). I will say that because of covid, we kept things much smaller and simpler than they're used to as a venue, and we really appreciated their flexibility in that regard. All of them graciously put up with my anxious emails and texts and micromanaging, and with a smile. And don’t get me started on the food! Our guests are still talking about all the choices and how delicious everything was, and we’re three weeks out at this point.
I could go on and on but I’ll end by saying that if you’re looking for a beautiful, romantic, elegant setting to get married in, backed by a group of talented, professional, and supportive cheerleaders to get you through the evening, you MUST get married here. It will be your biggest and best decision. -

I had an amazing wedding at Windows on the water at frogbridge! The place is beautiful with a gorgeous, natural backdrop. The staff was amazing! They were professional, accommodating and absolutely a delight to deal with! Nicole and Scott were absolutely amazing from anticipating our needs the day of to managing and organizing dates for us prior to our big day. Incredible, tasty food made by an amazing chef! My husband and I are beyond grateful we chose this venue! -

We can’t say enough good things about this venue! When we first started looking at venues, we knew we wanted an outdoor tented venue and WOTW provided everything we were looking for plus more. We saw a lot of other outdoor tented venues and they didn’t compare to WOTW in regards to the quality and price range. As soon as we met Scott, we instantly felt like we were in good hands and we were right. Given the current circumstances with the pandemic, Scott was there to assist, provide feedback, and walk us through every step of the way. He was extremely professional, helpful, and compassionate throughout this whole process. He even helped guide us to move our wedding back a month due to the pandemic which ended up being the best decision we could have made. Nicole was amazing as well as she helped me with all the little details to ensure my vision for the big day was exactly how I imagined. She also was on top of everything the day of the wedding so I didn’t have to worry. Scott, Nicole, and the rest of the crew at WOTW went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for our big day and we can’t thank them enough. A lot of people we know had to limit their wedding guest list to 50 or so people and we didn’t want to be limited. Due to the unique outdoor setting this venue provides, we were able to have 160+ people at our wedding and still provide a safe environment for our guests. Not only is the venue and grounds beautiful, but the food at the venue is outstanding. Our family and friends still can’t stop talking about how amazing all the food options were. We couldn’t be happier with how our wedding turned out and we can’t thank WOTW enough for helping us have the best day of our lives! -

Amanda Sent on 09/23/2018On 9/15/18 we had the most perfect wedding any couple could dream of at Windows on the Water at Frogbridge. If it weren’t for Scott my dreams of my perfect wedding wouldn’t have came true. I feel I am quite simple, so when I went to Scott and told him what I wanted, he was able to expand on my ideas and create the perfect wedding. I wanted didnt want a sit down dinner, so we came up with stations, but guests were still served a salad at their seats. This made a buffet option sound more appealing. The food was out of this world! My guests have not stopped talking about the mini sliders and the pasta stations and the mini cheesecake and S’more bites at the end of the night. I have NEVER been to a wedding where I enjoyed my entire meal from cocktail to dessert, and this wedding proved every venue wrong. Every wedding I have been to I always go home hungry or complain about the dinner, and I have never complimented a couple the following day on how good the food was, but for our wedding, two weeks later and people are still calling me raving about the food.
The venue itself is just beautiful. I am waiting on my pictures from my photographer, but every picture has such a beautiful background. The tent looked amazing. Scott and my bridal attendant, Ashley, made sure the day went smoothly. Anytime they had to make any changes or do something that a guest asked of them, they would run it by my husband and I to make sure it was okay with us. They made sure our drinks were full and we were eating. They packed up leftovers (thank god, we were eating them for 2 days) and packed up slices of cake (ontop of the cake topper, so we were able to enjoy the cake the next day without cutting into the topper). The chef came out several times to introduce himself to family and friends, and at one point one of the tables broke out in a clap for the chef (something I have never witnessed at a wedding, let alone any food establishment. This just proves how great the food was).Windows on the Water at Frogbridge's reply:
Thank you for sharing your experience and sharing the photos. Your ceremony and reception were out of this world. Wonderful experience for you and our staff! Thank you! -

Jennifer Sent on 10/03/2018I was so lucky to stumble upon the beautiful venue that is Windows on the Water! WOTW is one of the places you walk into and look at your significant other and say "YES!"
Reasons why you're not going to regret your decision: 1) Scott 2) Ashley 3) Will. These 3 human beings had it down to a science. I'm a Type-A person and Scott would finish my thoughts before I could speak them. He was accessible 24/7 and - to be honest - didn't need to be because he made sure that every idea, plan, forward thinking situation was covered. Ashley, my bridal attendant, was an angel sent from heaven. When you have a bunch of women (and child!) in a bridal suite, it's raining all day (don't worry brides, it's really good luck) and you're about to participate in the biggest moment of your life - Ashley is the one you want by your side. She fed me mimosas before I could ask for one. She answered all of my questions at any given moment and handled any issues that were thrown our way. She made sure I ate every food that the guests had. YES - we ate at our own wedding! Finally, Chef Will. People are STILL talking about how amazing our food was. The cocktail hour was out of the world. The creative dishes (you'll get to sample the menu if you can attend the tasting) are so spot on. And what Chef actually comes out to your reception and introduces himself to each guest? Absolutely amazing!!
This is just a glimpse of the fabulous place WOTW is, and I've only touched upon the people. The grounds are simply breathtaking, and trust me even in the pouring rain, you will have the time of your life here. Thank you again for making our dreams come true!!! -Cerrato FamilyWindows on the Water at Frogbridge's reply:
Thank you so much for this outstanding review. You were a pleasure to deal with and we're so glad we were able to give you the wedding you were dreaming of!! Wishing you a wonderful, happy and healthy marriage!
