The Gramercy at Lakeside Manor

The Gramercy at Lakeside Manor is a private event venue in Hazlet, New Jersey, set beside Natco Lake. It hosts weddings and a range of other celebrations, including Sweet 16s, quinceañeras, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, proms, corporate gatherings, holiday parties and family occasions. The venue books one event at a time, giving organisers exclusive use of its spaces and the attention of its team throughout the day.

At the centre of the venue is an elegant ballroom for celebrations of up to 300 guests. Its draped ceiling, chandeliers and sweeping staircase create a distinctive setting, while flexible layouts can accommodate seated dinners, food stations or open-floor formats. For wedding ceremonies, couples can choose between indoor options and outdoor spaces overlooking the lake, including a pavilion and gazebo. Bridal suites are also available.

Food and hospitality are an important part of the offering. The in-house culinary team provides customisable menus, from cocktail-hour stations and passed appetisers to dinner, desserts and bar service. Organisers can arrange a private tasting to discuss menu preferences, including dietary requirements. Event packages may also include coordination, service, decor and valet parking, with details tailored to the occasion.

The Gramercy also welcomes weekday corporate events, such as company dinners and holiday parties. Its team works with organisers on event details and vendor coordination, and the venue offers full wheelchair accessibility. Located on State Highway 36, it is accessible to guests travelling from across New Jersey and the Staten Island area.
