Helpful tips

Guest Tips

  • Book early. Hotel rooms near the venue fill up quickly on fall weekends. We recommend booking your room as soon as you RSVP.
  • Rideshares. Uber and Lyft are plentiful in the West Orange area. If you plan to enjoy cocktails at the reception, consider arranging a rideshare in advance.
  • Weather in November. Northern NJ in early November can range from crisp and clear to quite cold. We recommend bringing a coat or wrap for outdoor portions of the event.
  • Parking. Complimentary valet and self-parking are available on-site at the chateau. No need to worry about street parking.
  • Explore the area. West Orange is home to the Thomas Edison National Historical Park and Eagle Rock Reservation — perfect for a walk before or after the wedding weekend.
