We got married at Born to Run last weekend. The Venue is absolutely spectacular and all our guests were blown away by the views and different settings for the ceremony, cocktail hour and the reception. But if you ask me the family that runs the property is the icing on the cake. They were so accommodating through our covid troubles, they were extremely responsive through out our 2.5 year engagement all the way leading right up to the day of the wedding, they suggested amazing vendors that they worked seamlessly with and on the day of they made everything magical! I could not recommend this venue more highly! You will fall in love with this place!
