Spectacular Wedding- July 5th, 2024

On July 5th we had our wedding at Captain Bill's Bayview House in Bayshore, and it was an absolute dream come true.
The Bayview House is a truly breathtaking venue located waterfront in the Bayview Marina. The marina provided a gorgeous backdrop for our photos, and our guests couldn't stop raving about the beauty of the location.
One of the biggest highlights for us (and our guests!) was the incredible variety of delicious food options offered by Captain Bills. They truly catered to every taste bud. We opted for passed/ stationed hors d’oeuvres during cocktail hour and a sit down dinner. The menu included a wide selection of seafood, succulent meats, gourmet vegetarian options, and decadent desserts, ensuring there was something delicious for everyone. The quality of the food matched its variety. The seafood was fresh and perfectly cooked, the Italian dishes were bursting with authentic flavor, and the meat options were melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The presentation was equally impressive, adding a touch of elegance to the celebration.
A special thanks to Paula, our event coordinator, who was amazing throughout the entire planning process. She was incredibly responsive, helpful, and went the extra mile. Her expertise made everything run smoothly on our wedding day. The entire staff in fact was beyond amazingly attentive and made our special day flawless.
The Bayview House provided the perfect setting for our dream wedding. The combination of stunning scenery, delicious food, and exceptional service made our day truly unforgettable. We highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a magical and stress-free wedding experience.

Our wedding day on 6/1/24 was more than we could have ever imagines. Captain Bills and its entire staff were courteous, attentive, kind and amazing.

Starting with personnel, leading up to and day of our wedding Shannon and Paula in the events department went above and beyond to bring our vision to life. The wedding reception was amazing - the bridal attendant and maitre d were so fantastic taking care of not only my husband and I but my guests as well. Above all the kindness and attentiveness, we felt their excitement for us as a couple which was really special.

The food was perfect. Our guests are still raving about how great it was and how much at cocktail hour, especially! One thing they noted was how dinner came out hot which at some weddings doesn't always happen so that was great to hear.

The views are unmatched at Captain Bill's. We had a beautiful, clear night with a pretty sunset. Taking pictures on the dock was a last minute decision but they are beautiful and some of our favorites!
