Our wedding reception at the Morris County Golf Club was absolutely magical! From the very beginning, Emma and her team were an absolute dream to work with. They were incredibly easy, flexible, and truly dedicated to making our day perfect. Their attention to detail was impeccable, and they anticipated every need. The venue itself is gorgeous, providing just the right amount of sparkle and elegance. But the real star of the show was the food! Our guests are still raving about the incredible buffet.

We would highly recommend Jennifer’s Garden! We had our wedding on June 22, 2024. The staff was so helpful every step of the way. The planning process exceeded expectations and Deb was so informative and kind. She really put me as the bride at ease knowing the vision of the wedding was coming to life. Julie our officiant is one of the sweetest people we have met! Our meetings with her preparing for the ceremony made my husband and I know we picked a wonderful person to bring us together to start our marriage. Rehearsal night went really well and helped everyone prepare for the big day. Our wedding overall was the best and most magical day ever! We hope to see Jennifer’s Garden staff again soon and are so thankful for everything.

Amazing, photogenic, the vibe here is relaxed, be who you are, have fun and celebrate life.

A very unique features of the barn is the second floor overlooking the head table for a gallery type feel. Outside is the flower garden with pergola where the outdoor wedding can take place. Then capping the evening relaxing by the gas firepit watching the sunset with the string lights overhead. Stay, relax and get prepared in your own bridal suite in the three bedroom farmhouse built in the 1890's as the gentlemen get ready in their own groomsmen quarters. One amazing aspect for the wedding package is it’s a standard three day booking. Families arrive on Friday and check out on Sunday. This gives them time to relax and take the whole experience in. Plus the time is spent making their wedding their own. This is the place for imagination and creativity to really shine.

My husband and I had our wedding reception at Englebrecht Farm last September and had to change many details last minute due to the pandemic. Chris was extremely flexible and understanding of our situation. He helped us safely plan our dream wedding and made sure everything went perfect for us. The barn is original, rustic and absolutely beautiful. You can really make it fit your vision with your decorations, lights, etc. You get access to the barn and farmhouse for the entire weekend of your wedding which takes out a lot of the stress and time constraints that usually occur. I can’t say enough good things about this place and the people who run it! If your looking for a rustic wedding venue in the area that is just down the road from a brand new hotel and several local businesses for your guests to enjoy, I highly recommend Englebrecht Farm!

Had our wedding 9/14/24. Absolutely amazing. Katy was so helpful and attentive and made planning a breeze. The staff were absolutely amazing and helped every step of the way. They would bring me drinks or anything I needed, helped carried my bouquet when I was walking with my dress, and even brought the golf cart around from the train since we were running late for our first dance. We rented out the slide and train and both were a HUGE hit. Everyone the next day raved about how much fun they had and it was one of the best weddings they have ever been too. The staff even let the slide go for another half hour since the kids (and adults) were having so much fun. Definitely recommend this venue if you want a rustic vibe.

Started off our experience with the amazing Jill. She did everything just right and went beyond our expectations. When looking for a venue it can be very over whelming. Jill took that away from us right away. She explained everything to us in detail and broke it down. We then had the pleasure of working with the amazing Javi. He makes an excellent addition to Jills team. When I say this man was on top of everything I am not over exaggerating. He texted and called, and kept us on to date on everything. The day of the wedding and rehearsal Javi took top tier care of us and we will forever be grateful for the Bolingbrook Golf Club team for making our day extra special.
