10/10 wedding venue!!!!

From the moment we first stepped through the doors, we knew we had found something truly special. This venue exceeded every expectation we had—and then some. The facility itself is absolutely stunning, with elegant details and a warm, inviting atmosphere that made our wedding feel both luxurious and deeply personal.

What truly set this place apart, though, was the staff. Every single person we interacted with was attentive, professional, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. They handled every detail seamlessly, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy each moment. It felt like they anticipated our needs before we even had to ask.

And the food—wow. Our guests are still talking about it! Every dish was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious, from the appetizers to the main course. It’s rare to find wedding food that impresses so many people, but they absolutely nailed it.

If you’re looking for a venue that combines breathtaking beauty, exceptional service, and unforgettable cuisine, this is the place. We couldn’t have imagined a better setting for our wedding day.

Best Wedding Day Ever!!!!!!

I had my wedding here on April 11, 2026, and truly cannot say enough incredible things about this venue. From start to finish, the entire experience exceeded every expectation we had.

Working with Rosa and Claire was an absolute dream. They made the whole process feel seamless, organized, and honestly fun. Every detail was handled with so much care and intention, and it was clear the entire time that Rosa genuinely wanted our wedding to reflect exactly what we envisioned. That level of thoughtfulness made all the difference.

The venue itself is stunning. It has such a natural beauty that doesn’t need much added to it, and it created the perfect atmosphere for our day. The food was outstanding, something our guests are still talking about, and every single staff member we interacted with was warm, attentive, and so kind.

One of the most special parts was the location. It’s set in such a charming beach town, and all of our guests who traveled in kept commenting on how beautiful the area was. We heard over and over again how impressed everyone was with the venue, the service, and the overall experience.

If you’re even considering having your wedding here, do it. It was everything we hoped for and more, and we would choose it again in a heartbeat.

Rosa supported us throughout the entire wedding planning process and truly went above and beyond on our wedding day.

A dream come true

Tyde was the first venue my now husband and I toured and immediately fell in love the minute we walked in. From the modern-elegant designs, stunning chandeliers in every room, water views, the indoor/outdoor spaces, we could not have found a better place to fit our vision. Rosa was wonderful to work with throughout the entire process. She was always very responsive and will never steer you wrong. Her staff helped to make our wedding day as seamless as possible. They were very attentive and friendly the entire night. The food and the drinks were delicious and all of our guests raved about how amazing everything was! A plus for us was we were able to get married at St. Gabriels (about a 400ft walk from the venue) and there were beautiful rental houses next door as well that our families were able to stay in. We wish we could relive this night again and again. Thank you to Rosa and Tyde at Walnut Beach for helping to make our wedding day unforgettable.

Dream Wedding!

We got married at Tyde at Walnut Beach this past July, and it was truly everything we dreamed of and more! The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous — right on the water with the most beautiful views, and the modern design and layout made it feel so fresh and inviting.

The staff was amazing from start to finish, but we have to give a huge shout-out to Rosa. She was incredible! So responsive throughout the planning process and such a calming, organized presence on the big day. Thanks to her, everything ran so smoothly — we didn’t have to worry about a thing and could just enjoy every moment.

And the food — wow! Our guests are still talking about how delicious everything was. From start to finish, the entire experience exceeded our expectations.

If you’re looking for a stunning waterfront venue with a wonderful team and top-notch food, we can’t recommend Tyde at Walnut Beach enough. It was the most amazing day, and we’re so grateful to everyone there who made it happen!
