From the reviews
Absolutely Incredible Experience — Thank You Hope & Team! We recently held our Easterseals New Jersey 3rd Annual President Council event on December 9th, 2025 at The Chateau Ballroom and simply could not be more pleased with how everything turned out.
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Chateau Grande. From the moment we arrived for our wedding weekend until the time we checked out, the entire experience exceeded every expectation. We hosted our rehearsal dinner and recovery breakfast at the hotel, and both events were absolutely perfect.
We had the most amazing experience having our wedding at Chateau Grande! From start to finish, the staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for our celebration of about 100 guests. Hope, our wedding planner/coordinator, was absolutely incredible.
We had an absolutely wonderful experience this past weekend at the Chateau Grande Hotel!! We booked all our rooms there for our daughter’s wedding this past Saturday. The hotel is absolutely beautiful and steps away from the Park Chateau Estate, where we held our wedding!!
Getting married at Chateau Grande Hotel
A castle wedding is the once-in-a-lifetime, storybook kind — the grand staircase, the ballroom, the gardens and turrets your photos will live on forever. Castle weddings commonly run $10,000–$40,000+ depending on the date, guest count, and how much is included, so ask for a written quote for your season — Chateau Grande Hotel doesn’t publish a set price, and tiers move fast. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you’d actually get married — a ballroom that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you’ll want to walk the path your guests take from the gates to the ceremony to the reception. Second, bring your real questions: what’s included with the venue fee (tables, chairs, setup, teardown), the catering and bar policy, whether you can stay overnight on-site, the rain plan for a garden ceremony, and the music curfew. Fairytale dates at castle venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what’s open in your season before you leave.
Galas & corporate events at Chateau Grande Hotel
Reviews and the castle's own info mention galas, corporate events, or private parties at Chateau Grande Hotel — castle venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
