Great people and a gorgeous venue!

Like many other 2020 brides, my fiance and I had to change our wedding plans and decided to postpone to a date in 2021. Deb and Sarah could not have been more understanding and easy to work with in changing our date. They truly seem to care about their couples and are always available to answer questions when needed.

Best Venue for your wedding in Virginia Beach!

If you are looking for the best place to host your event in Virginia Beach, you found it! I am a professional DJ and I work several wedding events here every year and already have some lined up for next year. Before this year is over, I wanted to take the time and share with all review readers how grateful I am for the opportunity to be able to collaborate with such a great venue and the talented team that makes magic happen every time I am there. They communicate well with vendors, everything is always clean and looks amazing, and the layout options are awesome. I like how you have the option of upstairs or downstairs depending on the vibe you are looking for. It is always awesome to be able to have wedding ceremonies at the waterside. They surely go above and beyond for their clients to have the best time ever. Go see for yourself, book your event here!

Beautiful Venue!

We had our wedding at the WaterTable on June 1, 2019 and we are so happy we did! I wanted a beachy wedding, but not for it to be on the beach. With the WaterTable being on a marina, it was absolutely beautiful and exactly what we wanted. We rented the entire building with the ceremony on the lawn, cocktail hour on the lawn and porch, dinner downstairs, and dancing and cake upstairs. The flow of the wedding went seamlessly through the venue and I would recommend this route to couples that do not want to be too crowded when they have a big guest list. Our contact at the venue actually changed a couple of times before the big day, but Deb was very accommodating and made sure that we got the attention we needed. Even though Christine came in at the end of the planning process, she was absolutely fantastic! She went above and beyond on the day-of to ensure that everything was how we wanted it to be. I highly recommend this venue to everyone!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
