    Picture Perfect!

    We fell in love with this venue here on Wedding Wire when we first looked. After that we compared everything back to it. They are great to work with. The pavilion inside with the ceiling lights and built-in bar is beautiful. Getting married on the docks and having the marina being the backdrop of all our pictures was absolutely perfect. They have a list of recommended vendors, but ensured us that we could any vendors we wanted without any issues. This venue is so easy to make it exactly what you are looking for. Also October is a great time there, just book early!

    Amazing venue!

    I loved working with Tammy to find our perfect venue! They offer a lot of flexibility with other vendors and decoration. It’s also nice to know you have an indoor option with the weather being so variable.

    Wedding Venue

    The Pavilion at Pirates Cove is truly a one of a kind venue. We had our May 2023 OBX wedding here and it was perfect. Tammy Tobin and her team go above and beyond to ensure you are set up for the perfect day. The venue itself is great because you can customize it however suits your needs, and the ceremony site overlooks the canal and boats. We loved everything about our wedding and are so glad we chose Pirates Cove Marina.

    Incredible

    Absolutely the best wedding venue in OBX! From day one contacting for information to fast forward two years later when we said I do! Tammy and her team are the most wonderful people and the venue is just incredible!

    Wedding Venue

    We chose the Pavilion at Pirates Cove after looking at other wedding venues in the area because of the affordability, the location, and how much space there was. The venue itself is beautiful and a blank canvas to add your own personal touch and that is what I enjoyed most. The Marina was the perfect background for our ceremony and our wedding photos. I couldn’t have chosen a better location to celebrate our special day.

    Amazing! Couldn’t ask for more

    We got married on a Sunday in October and it was perfect in every way. We had a chance of rain that ended up holding off for us, but it was so nice knowing we could move inside for no additional cost if needed. Tammy was very very helpful during the entire planning process. She had great ideas for planning, and was more than welcome to share vendors with us. Cannot recommend pirates cove enough!!!

    Best Venue

    The Pavilion at Pirates Cove is such a beautiful place to get married! The Pavilion holds a special place in our hearts and Tammy was awesome to work with. She allowed our day of coordinator Engaging Event and Renee Landry to set up the night before our wedding so we were able to get a sneak peek before our guest. We loved this venue since most venues we toured told us we HAD to pick from their recommended vendors but Tammy was happy with us picking our vendors. We cannot thank everyone at The Pavilion at Pirates Cove enough for all they did! Do not think twice when finding a venue because The Pavilion at Pirates Cove is a venue that especially at night is just breath taking!

    My husband and I got married August 21 2021.
    The venue was absolutely gorgeous and everyone was so kind and helpful. Tammy was a dream to work with. She made everything go so smooth and she always responded so quickly. The set up was gorgeous. It was everything we wanted and so much more.

    Perfect Venue!

    Tammy and her team are the best to work with! My wedding was June 11 and Tammy allowed us to set up the venue space the day before since no one else had the facility reserved which was a HUGE help!! Tammy was available to answer all my questions and she was very fast at responding. I provided her the layout that I wanted the tables/chairs and everything was set up perfect! So easy to work with and the space is obviously beautiful! I love the Edison lights in the reception space. 100% recommend Pirates Cove as a venue!!

    5/14/22 Wedding

    Pirates Cove Pavilion is where we had our cocktail hour and reception after our beach ceremony. It was the PERFECT venue. It is a massive space, has a stage, dance floor, bridal suite, large bar and of course the amazing view of boats/water. Tammy (point of contact) was spectacular! She is quick to respond to e-mails and was very flexible the week of our wedding. 10/10 Recommend Pirates Cove for your wedding!

    Amazing Venue

    I can't say enough great things about this venue! Tammy and her staff are absolutely amazing and so accommodating! The venue itself is beautiful inside and out, but the ease that comes with this venue makes it even better. The whole process was seamless and put us at ease! I highly recommend Pirate's Cove for your wedding!

    Perfect place for a wedding!

    Tammy made the whole experience and planning to easy and she was great to work with! I knew from the beginning that we would get married at PC and it was everything I dreamed of and more. The venue is beautiful but at the same time a blank slate to make your own. It has its own charm and it was perfect for our wedding.

    Wedding venue

    Tammy is amazing!! We had a wonderful experience having our wedding and reception at The Pavilion. Communication was great leading up to and planning our wedding and all of our tables and chairs were set up per our diagram. Tammy was excellent at providing suggestions. It was a very busy weekend (3 weddings) and everything was clean and set up on time. Tammy went above and beyond to help make our wedding perfect for us!

    Excellent Experience

    My wife and I got married last month and chose The Pavilion @ Pirates Cove as our reception venue. Pirates Cove was beyond a pleasure to work with. They’re incredibly organized, thorough, flexible, very responsive and friendly, super patient with stressed out brides :) and you can definitely tell they’re on top of their game when it comes to operating a business and that they do as well as they do for a reason. Beautiful venue too! Would highly recommend.

    Beautiful venue and great team

    Pirate's Cove was the perfect venue for our wedding. They provide suggestions for vendors, but you get to pick whoever you want. You can truly make the space your vision. Tammy was a pleasure to work with. She explained everything clearly and was quick to respond to questions. We rented a condo across from the Marina that we used to get ready in and stayed the night there. Truly perfect!!

    The perfect spot

    We had our reception at the pavilion and it couldn't have been more perfect. We had a larger wedding for a destination and they were very accommodating. Tammy was a joy to work with and made sure everything was exactly the way we had dreamed it to be.

    Amazing Venue.

    I got married at Pirates Cove the end of March and everything turned out wonderful! It is a nice waterfront venue that has plenty of space for any event. Tammy was so very helpful with anything and everything from my first message to her and all the way up to the wedding and even after the wedding! She is awesome! I definitely reccomend The Pavilion!

    Laidback, Easygoing and attentive

    This venue can be anything you’d like it to be! We booked especially because we could stock our own bar! No AC or Heat but our wedding was 11/10/18 so we rented Patio Heaters for The reception. We had no issues with parking for our 125 guest wedding. Tammy is awesome!

    Just wonderful!

    Pirates Cove is an ideal place to host a wedding. The Pavilion is a great setting for both wedding and reception, a clean slate to let your imagination take over. Look at the gallery of photos and you can see where you imagination can take you, we did, and what fun. Tammy Tobin and the rest of the staff are simply awesome, knowledgeable and helpful. So many of our guests stayed in Pirates Cove and enjoyed every minute!
