Exclusive Prom Venues in New Jersey | Elegant Ballroom & Lakeside Setting
Prom is not just a school event. For most students it is the night they talk about years later, and the venue they remember most.
The Gramercy at Lakeside Manor has been the choice of prom committees and school administrators across New Jersey. We understand what it takes to pull off a flawless prom night, from the grand entrance to the final song.
Why Schools Choose The Gramercy for Prom
Walk into most prom venues in New Jersey and you will find a large room, a basic setup, and a staff stretched thin across multiple events happening at the same time. The Gramercy is different. We host one event per day. That means every member of our staff, from our General Manager Victoria Collia-Bowman to every server on the floor, is there for your prom and nothing else.
Direct Coordination With Your School
We coordinate directly with school administrators and prom committees to make the planning process smooth, clear, and stress-free well before the big night arrives.

Prom Catering and Menu
Prom night food has a reputation for being forgettable. We take that personally.
Chef Nicholas Kakounis leads our kitchen with a standard shaped by years of training under Michelin-recognized names including Jean-Georges Vongerichten. Every prom party venue in NJ we host gets that same level of culinary craft, regardless of the crowd size.
Students enjoy a cocktail hour with live action stations, a full dinner service with elegantly plated entrees, and a dessert display that ends the night on a high note. Our menus are fully customizable to fit your event and budget, and gluten-free and vegan options are always available to accommodate every student at the table.
