About The Nanina’s In the Park Wedding Venue

540 Mill Street, Belleville, New Jersey 07109

Nanina’s in the Park is a property that was conceived by the same minds behind New York City’s Central Park. The Olmsted Brothers created these grounds between 1898 and 1938. As you might expect with such a legacy, this property is as thoughtful as it is stunning. There are cherry trees that were planted to mimic the scenery in their native Japan. These blossoms continue to come to life throughout the spring, bursting into brilliant shades. From garden ceremonies to indoor bashes, this venue is ready for it all!
