I got married here 11/5/23, everything went absolutely PERFECT! Melody was our wedding coordinator she made sure everything went smooth and was on top of everything. Melody checked in with us constantly, was so patient with all of our constant changes just overall sweet and caring. If you’re getting married at the Waters Edge which I highly recommend you should also request Melody!
Thank you to Melody and all the staff at the Waters Edge everything was perfect
Love The Spegnolos -

WOW best venue
Absolutely blown away by the team from start to finish! We had mostly out of town guests and Flo was so accommodating in helping secure rooms. Melody and Haleigh were fantastic and very responsive with all of my questions to make my dream wedding come true. Couldn’t recommend Waters Edge enough from the stunning venue to the A+ team! -

To be able to tell you about our experience with the team at The Water's Edge, we first must share a bit of our story. In the last several months, we lost our baby daughter, my wife almost died during childbirth, my mother passed away, and our beloved dog passed away. It sounds completely impossible, but it was our truth. After our heartbreaking experience with our daughter, and almost losing my wife, we decided to try and pursue happiness every day we possibly could. That is when my wife decided that we should get married.
Her family has been owners at The Water's Edge for many years, so she had grown up watching all the beautiful brides from the balcony of their condo unit every summer. She wanted so much to be married at this venue for as long as she could remember.
We would have loved to host a grand party to celebrate our love, but that was not in our budget after the struggling year we've had. The team at The Water's Edge worked with us to secure an intimate wedding event, and allowing my wife to be the beautiful bride walking down the aisle, admired from the balconies surrounding her.
We had such a limited time to plan our wedding. The assistance and expertise from the staff - particularly Melody, were paramount to the success of our special day.
Melody was in constant contact with us, and was gracious and kind. She responded quickly everytime we reached out with a question, and always provided reassurance that everything would be beautiful.
And beautiful it was!
We had a weather scare, and she coordinated everything so that we could still have our dream of being married on the large lawn overlooking the water - yet be safely inside shortly after in case the skies opened up.
Melody and Hailey offered smiles to our guests, helped ensure everything ran smoothly - and even took time to take videos of our ceremony when they noticed we did not have a videographer.
Every moment of our wedding happened because of the care this team took. We didn't feel rushed, or processed. We didn't feel like cookie cutters. Everything about it was us - and ours. This is all thanks to Melody and Hailey.
They truly made a dream wedding a reality, with very limited resources. Their creativity, flexibility and kindness will never be forgotten. We needed this day so much, to help heal and find our joy. We got it- and so much more.
A month out --- and we're still basking in the glow of our beautiful day.

Outstanding Service
We were married here on May 7, 2023, and while we had a very short engagement (5 months), staff made our special day so perfect that it felt to our guests that we had been planning for at least a year. The venue sells itself with it’s beautiful views and the staff made booking a no-brainer. From our
introduction to Kara during our visit, to our connection with Melody and Hailey during the planning phase, and the final pass off to James at the reception, everyone took such great care of us and made a typically anxiety-provoking experience seamless! Kara, Melody, Hailey, and James are the true definitions of professional, courteous, kind, and helpful. Melody and Hailey went above and beyond when surprising us by setting up our altar columns and centerpieces exactly as we wanted them without any instructions/photos! If you are thinking about WE, book here, you will not be disappointed - they make magic happen! -

Everything was perfect! Thank you so much to Melody, Hailey, and Kara. Even though there were changes because of the weather on wedding day, I’m so thankful you all guided us on the right path! Our families and friends all loved the venue and enjoyed their food! Everyone told us how much they loved the food, especially the chicken spring rolls and the braised rib! Thank you so much for working with us. Thank you for listening and addressing our concerns. We are so appreciative! Our families and friends are already planning their getaway at Water’s edge because they loved everything about our wedding. We are so happy we had a great time and so did our families and friends.

Fantastic venue with even better wedding team!
My husband and I began planning our October 2020 wedding at Water’s Edge in 2018 with Nancy, one of their wedding coordinators. From the beginning Nancy was very responsive and answered any questions we had. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, we had to change our plans. We heard so many horror stories about other venues so we were nervous when we decided to move our date, but Nancy couldn’t have been more accommodating. Her only goal was making sure we had exactly the wedding we had dreamed of—and that’s exactly what happened. We still got married in 2020 but pushed our reception back one year to October 2021 and did a vow renewal ceremony. Our whole wedding party, parents, etc made a weekend out of it and stayed at the resort and we had our rehearsal dinner in one of their ballrooms. Everything was perfect from the minute we walked into the door. Our vow renewal ceremony and reception was exactly what we had dreamed of when we booked Water’s Edge in 2018. There was some rain the day of our ceremony and Nancy was very communicative through the entire day, watching the weather, and helping us decide what to do. During our reception, we had 2 attendants dedicated to us to make sure we had drinks, we ate, etc—they were fantastic!
Our guests raved about the delicious food, and what an incredible time they had and I believe that is because of how great everyone at Water’s Edge is.
Thank you Nancy and the entire Water’s Edge team for an incredible wedding, and weekend!! -

I really enjoyed my Wedding experience at Water's Edge. Shelby was a great coordinator, and helped us immensely all the way up to the the day-of. Parts of their offered packages are customizable, and as I'm not a fan of cake, I was able to order crème brûlée instead :). So I'd say they are quite flexible and willing to accommodate within reason. I would 100% recommend them as a venue to a friend, or as a resort in general! -

Bianca H. Sent on 01/04/2022Happy Couple - Staff Flexible, Gracious Through Uncertainty
When we first booked with Water's Edge, we scheduled for June 13, 2020 — One pandemic and two postponements later, we happily married on August 29, 2021. The Water's Edge staff, especially our wedding coordinator Nancy Steele, were especially gracious through uncertainties and rearranging of our wedding plans as we navigated through the start of the unprecedented "COVID era." As stressful as postponing was, Nancy and the Water's Edge staff were supportive throughout the experience and helped us remain enthusiastic about our Wedding Day throughout our extended three-year engagement. At Water's Edge, even in these unprecedented times, our peace of mind was cared for throughout. When it came down to holding potential new dates (in case more restrictions came to be), Water's Edge was thoughtful and fair about providing us the next best possible date to accommodate new revised plans. We appreciate their transparency during these difficult times and are grateful how they handled our various needs. Although our original 2020 date could not come to be (due to circumstances outside of our venue's control), everything else surrounding our 8/29/2021 went beautifully according to plan. When our "Big Day" at Water's Edge finally came to be, it was an absolute dream -- and after everything the Water's Edge staff and we had gone through together, we felt closer to Nancy and the Water's Edge staff than ever before. We could feel the genuine care and Joy the Water's Edge staff authentically shared with us when we *finally* were able to have our Wedding Day in the safest and most joyous way possible -- our Gratitude was truly through the roof. As a former 2020 turned 2021 "corona bride," I learned that Water's Edge and their trusted staff truly care for the couples getting married at their venue and that their customers can trust that they're in good hands -- we certainly were! Thank you, Water's Edge. -

When you are looking for affordable elegance in a classic New England shoreline setting, Water's Edge is the perfect venue to make everyone feel special. Our planner Ariana and the extended wedding team were fabulous start to finish. Ariana's team worked through all the details and stayed with us all through the event to ensure every moment went smoothly. From Friday night's rehearsal dinner, after evening beach fire to Saturday's wedding & reception and Sunday's family breakfast, everything was perfectly timed, beautifully set, and delicious. The Bride and Groom said it best. "It was perfect in every way." Thank You Water's Edge!Water's Edge Resort and Spa's reply:
Thank you so much, Catherine! Your family was lovely to work with and we were happy to see this long awaited celebration come together! Thank you for keeping such a positive attitude during this last year and half with all the uncertainty happening in the world. It was a great weekend with lots of smiles and love! We can't wait to see you all again soon! -

Loved Water's Edge!
Shelby was great to work with. My wedding planner was impressed with how responsive and solution-focused she was on our wedding day. The venue is great for large or smaller wedding receptions. You can't beat the view from the Grand Ballroom! Food was great. Scallops were the best! All my guests from Texas loved the New England feel and beautiful Long Island sound views. -
