Get married here!!

Our wedding was amazing. Not only is the location, views, and atmosphere stunning but the food was amazing! The seafood was so fresh and things were served warm to taste. The displays were absolutely gorgeous and guests seemed to notice nothing was left bare or unsightly. Worth every penny! Wish I could relive this day forever.

Best Venue Ever

Maggie, Kay, and Kayley are actual angels from above that come down to make you have the best, most magical wedding ever.

Regatta Place checked all of our boxes - gorgeous venue, reasonable cost that included everything we could dream of and more (passed mini lobster rolls & espresso martinis??? say less). The location is unreal, and we got to use the Schooner Aurora that the venue also owns for a welcome sail the night before in place of a rehearsal dinner, which was amazing. The whole planning process was seamless and stress free, thanks to the experts at Regatta Place. The minute we walked in to our wedding on the day of, I immediately teared up seeing my vision from the last year of planning executed flawlessly - like even better than I could dream up. They really take care of you and care about your day being amazing!

Our guests complimented the food as "the best wedding food they've ever had" (and we have to agree). Guests also raved about the fact that there was never a long bar line because they are so efficient and we had passed drinks & wine service with dinner as part of our drink package, and my husband and I loved how Kay & Kayley really took care of us in every way day of - taking cards up to the bridal suite, bringing us food, taking my heels when I didn't want to wear them anymore haha.

We also mainly hired vendors from Maggie & Susanna's recommended vendors lists, and they were all flawless, so that's a bonus too!!

My husband and I photographed a wedding at The Regatta Place in May of 2011. Besides the bridal suite being absolutely gorgeous, the staff was incredibly attentive to every need of not only the bride, but the bridesmaids, her mother and father along with myself. They did the same with the groom, his groomsmen and my husband. Throughout the day, there was always someone present, calming the nerves of the bride and her family and they were exceptional with their service throughout the entire reception. We enjoyed working with the staff at The Regatta Place and would gladly accept the invitation to photograph a wedding there again. Exceptional service and care. We can't wait to go back!
