Best wedding we could have asked for!

Gina was absolutely amazing start-finish. Venue was perfect inside and out. Very responsive to all inquires. Great help in finding other local venders and the support needed for our event. Can’t think of a single negative about our experiences! Will use again for other events in the future for sure

801 Great venue for beach wedding

This venue was excellent. We were guests at a recent wedding and had a wonderful experience.
The beach location was beautiful. Food was delicious and music made us all want to dance.
The woman who was in charge
( Lisa Mattice) went out of her way to assure everything went
according to plan. Totally wonderful experience.
