Attention Brides!! Think very carefully before committing to a wedding or any other event at Twin Brooks Country Club. While it is a nice facility, the events manager there, Chris Warren, is a classless man with an erratic personality. The following is a list of things that illustrate him to be uncensored and unreliable when it comes to one of the most unforgettable days of your life. If you remember nothing else from this post, know that he made my maid of honor cry on our wedding day. And, she is not some softy, she works as a manager at a hotel, dealing with cranky rude customers all the time. Ok so here it is… • We negotiated a specific price per plate that we had confirmed in writing. A week before the wedding my husband goes to pay for it, and Chris hands him the bill with a price that was a couple thousand dollars over what he originally quoted. When my husband respectfully questioned him concerning the quote, stating what we had in writing, Chris reared his ugly personality. He stormed away, came back with a new contract, and threw it in his face. Talk about ERATIC and UNCALLED for! • It’s 10am on our wedding day. The bridesmaids and me are all at the salon loving life. Chris calls my maid of honor and says that we have to redo our seating chart. REALLY?! Three days ago I went through everything with him, and heard “yes, yes, yes”. And now the morning of my wedding you are fighting with my maid of honor, arguing that we need to re-seat people at different tables….CLASSLESS! • The wedding party has just finished taking a TON of pictures, lots of fun but leaving us all feeling very hungry and thirsty. We come in from the outside and head to the room that Chris told us our private cocktail hour would be set up. NOTHING WAS SET UP. No food, no drinks, nothing! UNRELIABLE! • And here is the grand finale of stupidity! My husband gives Chris his tip. Chris, like a sleezeball, finds my maid of honor (who has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with his tip!) and says “what the hell is this about?” and goes on to complain about his tip!!! My maid of honor was so shook up she cried. She did so in private without my knowing, and held it together until the next morning when it all came out. The kicker?? My husband goes to twin brooks to discuss this matter, and Chris does not apologize for his actions. That man is REPULSIVE! There are so many venues out there, do yourself a favor, save yourself from the stupidity and hold your wedding elsewhere.

My fiancee and I started planning our wedding in November 2010. After a few weeks of searching, we stumbled upon the Twin Brooks Country Club. They say youll know the right place when you see it, and boy did we ever. From the beginning of the process to the end, Chris Warren, the Events Manager at Twin Brooks dealt with us thoughtfully, honestly, and respectfully. The man knows how to not only plan a party, but also make sure it goes off without a hitch. He worked within our budget, handled any questions we had, and deftly guided us through a process that is often hectic and confusing. He is absolutely wonderful, though we had no idea just how wonderful until the day of our wedding. Our wedding just so happened to fall on the day of a freak October snow storm. In Watchung, about a foot of snow came down, toppling trees, closing roads, and bringing down power lines. Due to the insane weather conditions/terribly dangerous roads (and the venues loss of power, by way of the aforementioned downed power lines), we were forced to call off the reception. Throughout the admittedly stressful process, Chris was amazingly considerate, fully intent on making things as easy as possible on my wife and I. Eventually, the decision was made to have the party the following afternoon, a Sunday. Chris handled everything. The excellent staff all volunteered to come back the next day. That is a mark of dedication to your customers, and was very much appreciated. The day of the party saw the sun shining, the power back on (in a limited capacity), and Twin Brooks Country Club prepared for a party. The food was outstanding, the room was beautiful, and the snow mixed in with the autumn leaves made for a stunning sight. The party, given the struggles of the previous day, was a complete success. We truly cannot thanks Twin Brooks Country Club enough for the amazing work they did on this difficult, but wonderfully memorable day. We will always be thankful for Chris, the wait staff, the kitchen staff, the bartenders, and the amazing chef. They sacrificed so much of their time and effort in making this a truly spectacular day. If they can handle a party like this, they can easily handle a "normal" wedding night. You owe it to yourself to consider Twin Brooks. Thank you Chris. Thank you Twin Brooks. You rock.

My family had a wedding here and everything was superb. Chris (the manager) ran everything perfectly and was the kindest professional ever. (Also, an extremely talented singer/piano player). The food was excellent, staff was great, really cant say enough nice things. If youre planning a wedding in Central Jersey, do yourself a favor and check out Twin Brooks.
