Allaire Chapel; https://allairevillage.org/weddings/
This beautiful Chapel is located in the Historic Village of Allaire State Park, Wall NJ and has become one of the most popular wedding spots at the Jersey shore.  Dating back to the early 19th century it is nearly 200 years old. The chapel and the beautiful grounds it is on make it popular for photographs

Bonnet Island Boat House;  Located in Long Beach Island, Manahawkin, NJ. Romantic and elegantly rustic, this beautiful Boathouse Chapel was transported and reassembled, beam-by-beam, from New England. It has rustic barn doors that swing open to allow bay breezes to flow through the chapel. My favorite is the beautiful stone fireplace and the garden arches leading to the Boathouse. Enjoy an elegant reception inside the adjoining mansion. I also love the patio overlooking the water! This is an all-inclusive location run by Weddings of Distinction

Bayonet Farms Holmdel- Beautiful park with a couple of barns. You can use one of the barns for your event or hold the ceremony outdoors, reception in the barn or everything outdoors! The town website does not do this beautiful rustic venue justice. I suggest going on Pintrest to search for photos of weddings at Bayonet Farms to get a true feel of this location.
