Booking the Convention Hall was the best decision we made for our wedding! I would highly recommend this venue to anyone who is looking for a venue where you can put your personal touch on your wedding day, while have the support of an incredibly helpful and professional staff that will ensure that your day runs smoothly and without stress.

Rachel and her team were so professional and excellent to work with. Rachel was super communicative for the year leading up to our wedding and was incredibly helpful during the entire planning process. On the day of, we had a few things not go exactly to plan due to one of the DJ getting a flat tire on the way to the wedding. Fortunately, Rachel's staff was ready to go and helped the DJ set up quickly so that we could stay on schedule. I basically didn't even know that it was happening which demonstrates how the team seamlessly addressed any issues that arose.

I also want to shout out the unbeatable location. Not only is this walkable to everything else in Cape May, but the location is absolutely stunning and overlooks the ocean. The large deck was so perfect for the ceremony and made it easy to have a beach wedding without having to deal with walking on sand. Dolphins jumping out of the ocean during our ceremony and the sunset cocktail hour on the deck were definitely huge highlights of the entire day!

Finally, for all those couples out there that insist on doing something DIY for your wedding (a.k.a. me) but want to have some guardrails, this is the venue for you. My friends, family, and I put in a lot of effort into creating personal touches for the event (homemade chuppah, escort cards, drink signs, cake topper, etc.). All of these details were incorporated into the day just as I imagined, which was so meaningful for us. This attention to detail is also a testament to Rachel listening to me and being able to execute at a high level.

I would highly recommend that other couples choose this venue. You are getting a lot for the price and, most importantly, you are working with a very capable team that is committed to your day going well. Thanks to all the staff at the Cape May Convention Hall for all your help!

Our wedding was so magical due to the fantastic team at the Convention Hall, especially Rachel Ertle. She is super knowledgeable, friendly and supportive which is exactly what a bride needs. The venue was exactly what I imagined my dream wedding to be! She was so resourceful to all our amazing other vendors as well. Louis and I couldn’t have been happier!

The Cape May Convention Hall is an incredible venue. We looked at seven venues in Cape May and nothing compared to the Convention Hall! It is the only venue that is actually on the beach and gives you those amazing beach wedding vibes! It is a large space that can accommodate a large wedding but is also perfect for a small or medium wedding. One thing we loved was being able to have the ceremony on the deck that overlooks the beach and the ocean. You get your beach wedding but do not have to have everyone on the sand, but you can do everything on the beach if you want. It was perfect that we could do the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all at the same location. Cocktail hour on the deck with a second bar out there was a big hit with our guests. Pretty much the entire wedding spent the whole cocktail hour out there taking pictures and enjoying the view, food, and drinks. When the reception finally comes around you cannot beat the breathtaking views you get of the ocean with the amazing floor-to-ceiling windows in the back of the Convention Hall. It immediately captures your attention when you walk in. It gives you so much natural light and is beautiful as the sun goes down. When I walked in and saw the windows, I immediately knew this was the venue for us. This venue gives you such a great space for your guests. One of the cool things about the space is they build a stage for your entertainment. We wanted a fun party band for our wedding so having the stage really set the tone for the entertainment. It also gives you the ability to create a large dance floor which our guests kept full all night! Another benefit of being on the beach is it gives you amazing photos with your partner and your wedding party. It gets such great light and you also get amazing sunset photos on the deck/beach. When you book this venue, you get a blank slate. You have to bring in all your vendors which can be a little overwhelming initially. However, Rachel the Assistant Director of the Convention Hall gives you a lot of great recommendations of vendors she has worked with before that do a great job. It also allows you to control your costs more than a venue that owns everything. You can meet with multiple vendors and find one that fits your budget. The cost is comparable to the other venues we looked at and ended up being cheaper because of our ability to pick our own vendors. The other benefit of being a blank slate is the creative freedom it gives you. The different venues we looked at had their venues decorated in a certain way and we felt it would have forced us to match their theme. Rachel is incredible to work with and was so helpful through the whole planning process. She is extremely responsive and was always able to answer any question we had. Rachel and her team were amazing the day of, and we cannot thank them enough for the role they played in making our day so perfect. There are also many hotels that are all across the street that will do room blocks. This was amazing for our guests because we gave them 3 different hotels to choose from and everyone was able to walk right to the venue! We cannot recommend the Cape May Convention Hall enough! Our guests cannot stop talking about how much they loved it. Definitely go check out this venue I promise you will not be disappointed!
