Wedding in Livingston

[Blake]

We went to a wedding last weekend (10/18) in Livingston at the Crystal Palace. (I live in Texas.)

I was amazed at the quality of the food and the service.

As is typical of a Jewish wedding there was WAY too much food but it was all of superb quality.

After the wedding ceremony, we all retired to one of the lounges and there were at least 15 serving stations set up to just serve appetizers. There was everything from freshly prepared sushi to brushcetta carried around on trays.....as if the stations weren't enough.

The dinner selections were one fish, one chicken, and Chateaubriand. All were done to perfection and served with a flair that added greatly to the experience.

If anyone in N.J. is looking for a place to have a party, I couldn't possibly recommend the Crystal Palace too highly.

I have been to a few weddings here. Although they are kosher, none of the weddings were "Jewish" weddings. Everything has always been top notch, and I completely agree with your post. It is definately at the top of its game in this area.

Crystal Plaza has also been a generous contributor to the Community Foodbank of NJ, which provides food for neighborhood pantries and other help givers. Kitchen left overs do not go to waste.

It is Crystal Plaza and they serve non-kosher food as well as kosher. It is a beautiful place but very expensive.

A Saturday night wedding at Crystal Plaza runs app. $250 a head. It is a beautiful place with good food. I really like is that they treat their staff well.

I heard it is a really nice place but is very exspensive as well.
