When you think of New Jersey ballroom wedding venues, the word blinged-out might come to mind. A grand dance floor, crystal chandeliers, elegant staircases, fancy lighting, extensive menus and seating for hundreds is what fairy-tales are made of for many princess brides. And lucky for you, New Jersey has plenty of these elaborate ballrooms. Here are some of our favorites:

1. The Venetian, Garfield

If palatial is what you’re looking for, the Venetian is the place. With Italian marble, grand columns, 35-foot cathedral ceilings, two ballrooms with a capacity for 950 guests, elaborate Chihuly and crystal chandeliers, sprawling staircases for grand entrances, Chiavari chairs and special lighting, this space truly provides a majestic setting with all the ballroom bells and whistles.

2. The Grove, Cedar Grove

All feature high ceilings, custom hand-blown glass chandeliers, gold Chiavari chairs, palladian windows, descending staircases, old-meets-new architecture, state-of-the art audio/visual and LED lighting.
