My husband and I looked high and low for the perfect venue in Monmouth/Ocean county and Sunset Ballroom exceeded all our expectations! The staff, maitre’d, bartenders, wedding coordinator were all amazing and very professional. The views cannot be beat!!! All my guests raved about the food, and the bridal suite is spacious. I would book my wedding here a million times over. 10/10!!!

Hands down the best wedding venue EVER! From the service, ambiance, food quality, and price - the sunset ballroom is a no brainer of a venue to host a wedding or a special event. Nancy, Beverley and Darlene are the A-TEAM here and will perfect every moment and vision you have ever thought of having for your special day. I come from a restaurant owning business along with many family members that have attended and all guests are still raving and talking about the Sunset Ballroom. This has been such a hidden gem that needs to be HEARD about because this will NOT disappoint you or anyone! The venue along with everyone has exceeded my expectations - look no further and book them!

Nancy and her team at the Sunset Ballroom helped us have the PERFECT day. They were responsive, helpful, and attentive. Nothing but great things to say.

I would like to say that our wedding was amazing on 07/19/19 @ The Sunset Ballroom in Pt. Pleasant, NJ. Nancy and Jackie were so easy to work with and were always pleasant when I called to ask questions about our wedding preparations. We had our rehearsal dinner the night before at the Wharfside Restaurant right across from the venue. The food and staff there were amazing. The day of the wedding we were so excited and couldn't wait to get married. The ceremony was beautiful. The cocktail hour was phenomenal even though we missed some of it because we were taking pictures but our guests were telling us how delicious everything was. The matre de served us so we didn't miss out on all the food. We chose the buffet style for the entree and let me tell you the food was so fresh and delicious! Every staff member were friendly and asked if we needed anything. They helped in every way especially the matre de she was so patient with me. The view of the sun setting was breathtaking. Everyone enjoyed themselves at our wedding and was raving about how good the food was and how beautiful the place looked even up to now. I definitely recommend this place if your planning a special occasion. You will love it.
Also a big thank you to all staff at The Sunset Ballroom. We had a blast!

From planning, to payment, to prep, to the actual event Nancy and her staff were wonderful! The view of the sunset over the river was beautiful and we were even blessed with fireworks! When I got married 30 years ago I was advised to spend money on the music and the pictures, because that's what makes memories. The food...not so much. Well at the Sunset that does NOT apply. Outstanding ingredients, preparation, and service. We are still getting compliments. (I am the FOB)

Since I was little, I knew I wanted to get married at the Lobster Shanty. The day after I got engaged, I booked our wedding date and did not even consider anywhere else. It's the most amazing place to get married! The location is breathtaking and our guests could not get enough of the view from every angle of the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Nancy and Jackie make sure that all your questions are answered prior to your big day and also make sure to calm any nerves that you may have regarding the coordination of the event. Then the day of, Theresa is literally a mind reader. She would finish my sentences and have things ready to go before I even realized that I wanted them. She is so patient, caring, and thoughtful! She made our wedding day absolutely perfect from start to finish!

I've heard that most of the time the bride and groom are too busy to eat the food. Let me tell you, we ate a ton! The food is absolutely phenomenal and we were not missing out on that. Definitely make sure you choose the seafood sampler and the prime beef. You won't be disappointed!

One of the best parts (there are too many to count), is that everything is included. They are not going to nickle and dime you like some other places, so the price they list is the price you get. It's all included in the package! We even asked for french fries to be made at the end of the night as our favor and they were able to include that as well.

I can't say enough good things about the Lobster Shanty and, if I had to do it all over again, I would choose them in a heartbeat (again)! If you have your wedding there, you will have the best night of your life!

Everyone at the Sunset Ballroom was wonderful to work with! I emailed Nancy a million questions and she always got back to me quickly without seeming annoyed. Jackie was a great help when we had meetings at the venue and Theresa was the best Maitre d' we could have asked for! Our guest raved about the plentiful cocktail hour and a few guests said that this was the best wedding food they had ever had! The room is spacious, the bar area is huge, and when it rained on our big day it was easy to quickly move the ceremony indoors on a last minute's notice! I would 100% recommend the Sunset Ballroom!

The Sunset Ballroom is just an amazing place to have your wedding. The ballroom has huge windows that overlook the water. The food was amazing my guests where raving for days after the wedding about the food. All questions and concerns I had leading up to the wedding where always answered promptly. I was even able to email pictures to them to show exactly how I wanted a specific decoration set up. I would also like to say how awesome my maitre d Teresa was. She was so on top of things and so attentive to me that day and even helped bustle my dress. I highly recommend booking this venue you will not regret it!!!

I had my wedding on October 15, 2016 at The Sunset Ballroom. I can't say enough about how much of an amazing experience I had from day one until my wedding day. Nancy, the banquet manager was always available to answer all ( and I had a lot ) of my questions. She was kind, patient and very professional. The week prior to my wedding I met with Nancy to go over details of my wedding day. She reviewed every single detail with me which made me feel comfortable and at ease. As a bride this was huge for me. The day of the wedding came and I was blown away by my super attentive, kind, knowledgable maitre d' Theresa. She was so helpful throughout the night assisting me with my dress, bringing my husband and I food and drinks, constantly updating us on the events of the night, packing us food to take home, etc. I can go on and on! She blew away any expectations I could ever have.
All night long I was complimented on how delicious the food was and how attentive the staff was. I would highly reccomend any bride that is looking to find their perfect venue to look no further and be confident when choosing The Sunset Ballroom.

I can't say enough good things about this venue!! Leading up to our wedding day, I probably called Nancy 20 times. Each time, she was super patient with me and answered all of our questions. We met with Jackie for our final meeting and she was great, too. She showed us exactly how the night would go, where everything would be placed, and worked with us when we needed to add an extra display table. On the day of the wedding, everything was absolutely perfect! The venue is absolutely beautiful. The water views, the chandeliers, the centerpieces, everything! The cocktail hour room was great, too! Guests loved going outside in the nice weather. The sunset was also absolutely breathtaking on our wedding day. Theresa, the maitre'd (not sure I spelled that correctly) was AMAZING!!!! I've never met someone so attentive who knew our every request before we even asked. At one point, my husband and I sat down to eat and as I was saying to him "darn, we missed the crab cake appetizer", Theresa was on her way to our table with fresh hot ones for us! She got us drinks all night, tended to our parents, and kept everyone organized. And she set up the room exactly how I pictured it, everything was so beautiful. Theresa really is one-of-a-kind and kept everything super stress-free. Even our photographer said to me "I've been doing weddings for 10 years and she is hands-down the best maitre-d I've ever seen". We are so happy we chose The Sunset Ballroom for our wedding!! We wish we could relive our wedding day over and over again!
