    A truly incredible day

    I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful wedding. Brian was phenomenal as was the rest of the staff that day. My husband and I were married August 22, 2024 and every guest has told us it was the most perfect wedding they have ever been to. From the moment we started planning our wedding until the night was over everything was seamless. The food was beyond exceptional.

    All staff were really kind professional and work good with are short time of planning. Very understanding with our culture traditions.

    The destination without destination wedding venue

    Anthony's Oceanview was our second venue we toured summer of 2022 and as soon as we walked through we knew this was the place we would have our wedding at.

    We had our wedding Sep 29th 2023, it was a rainy day. Brian and his staff did amazing work accommodating for the best view, and space for an aisle.
    Sometime later the rain stopped and we were able to sneak out and take some amazing night time photos on the beach underneath the palm trees.
    All of our guests raved about the high quality of food and the amount of it. There was so much of it.
    We were bummed about the rain, but Anthony's Oceanview came through and did fantastic job making our special day amazing.

    Highly recommend this venue to others.

    Anthony's Ocean View's reply:

    Thank You!! We are so glad you and Caitlin still had the perfect wedding!! Thank you for letting Anthony's be a part of it!

    Perfect Day!

    Our wedding was perfect. From beginning to end the staff at Anthony’s Oceans View made our day memorable and joyful. Food was amazing and the ceremony on the beach was breath taking. If I could get married again to my husband I would do it all over again at Anthony’s Ocean’s View.

    Beautiful and amazing!

    We utilized Anthony’s ocean view for our wedding reception and we could not be more grateful. First we worked with Andrew who was an amazing person. Made us feel super comfortable when selecting our package and did not pressure us into getting any “specific package” he was so easy to work with. Unfortunately he no longer works for Anthony’s, so we started working with Marcello who was also a pleasure to work with. He was very knowledgeable, answered all of our questions and was very friendly. We booked several appointments throughout the months leading up to our wedding to go over EVERYTHING and he was amazing. We ate dinner there a few times in between and their food is to die for. Presentation, quality and quantity are amazing. The day of our wedding we walked into an amazing and truly beautiful venue. We could not have asked for more. Not to mention their prices are extremely competitive. Their staff was on top of cleaning up immediately after yet, not rushing us. Our guests loved the food. We will be utilizing Anthony’s for our date night dinners!

    Phenomenal!

    Anthony’s Ocean View did a phenomenal job for my wedding! Everything ran so smoothly from start to finish! The staff is so attentive and the mater D’s make sure everything is running perfectly! The food is phenomenal and you certainly do not leave hungry!

    The outside patio on the water is a selling point and it certainly is a destination wedding In CT! The sunset makes for awesome pictures too!

    Smooth Turn-key Operation!!

    I was born & raised in Clinton, CT, moved to Michigan a few years ago, and having my wedding in CT on the beach has always been a dream. Living so far away from my wedding location always felt challenging to plan, well I was COMPLETELY wrong! Anthony’s ocean view has outdid themselves.

    When I was first looking at Venues I booked a walk through of Anthony’s and met with Consultant Andrew (amazing person 🤗) in Oct 2018, this man is one of the best. He will go into details about how at ease Anthony’s makes you feel on your wedding day. Every single thing Andrew explained to me at our first meeting, happened! Living in Michigan and planning my wedding in CT was honestly so smooth, not a hiccup from day 1 of meeting Andrew to the night I walked out the door of Anthony’s on my wedding night. He answered every email with quick response, was patient and accommodating with how far I lived. He made great recommendations for DJs, and preferred vendors, and showed me how a bride and groom are suppose to enjoy their wedding day, and that’s what we got to do. Planning this wedding was so fun!

    Anthony’s allows you to drop off bins and they will set up all your wedding day items (entry table, guest book, easels for signs, toiletry baskets, etc) and put them exactly where you want them. This part was amazing for me. I wanted to just show up and enjoy my day, and that’s what I did.

    Our wedding day was July 4th 2019, we had our ceremony on paradise beach and reception in the paradise room upstairs. Highly recommend getting married at Anthonys beach, the pictures are epic, your guests will thank you! We had 100 guests.

    We got introduced to Thomas as our coordinator for the day, this man is so professional and his demeanor is spot on. He made our night run so smooth, we made some last minute changes to our schedule so our photographer could get sunset photos, & firework photos, and Thomas professionally communicated this to all the vendors about the changes and it was so smooth. He made my wedding party feel at ease when instructing them to walk down the aisle. My parents loved him! So did I 🥰, the day couldn’t have been as smooth without Thomas!

    Our maître d’ for the night was Elisa, this girl was on point👌🏽, she was the nicest girl and was so professional as well. She held my dress up as we prepare to walk down the aisle, every time I or my husband turned around, she was there asking if we needed water, drink, food, help, anything! She helped my wedding party if they needed anything, it was a hot day, and she was there with water whenever we needed it. Thank you Elisa!

    The food is to die for, the atmosphere and location is out of this world, you feel like you are sipping drinks on a tropical vacation in Tulum Mexico 😂, the service level of every single person I interacted with was so professional. They clean up all your items and put them back in your bins. My guests have been raving about this wedding.

    If you are a bride that wants to thoroughly enjoy your wedding day, and not worry about 1 single small detail, you have to book this venue. I loved my wedding, I loved planning it, I loved every minute of my day! Andrew, Thomas, Elisa and the entire crew at Anthony’s Ocean View, thank you for creating the most unforgettable wedding experience!
    Peace ✌🏾 & Good vibes 🤙🏽 To you all!!

    We met with caterina to book our venue and were very happy. She was friendly, answered many of our questions and explained the best decisions on decor for our time of year while saving us money. We didn't even look at another venue and booked right away!!

    Words can't describe how awesome the Anthony's wedding planning team was. Andrew was our lead organizer, and he went away above and beyond to make sure all of the requirements and requests that we made throughout the pre-wedding duration were satisfied and accommodated. He knows how to work with large parties (Kavita's parents were working with him while the wedding couple was in Boston to answer any questions that need to be answered. And not to mention the food was met with outstanding reviews from the guests.

    I wish I wasn't so limited with space on here because there is so much I want to say. First off if you are THINKING about booking Anthony's JUST DO IT. You will not regret it. The day was exactly like I pictured because of this venue and their outstanding staff. Marchello, Vin and Anna, you made our day so special (Rame-Barber Wedding July 14th, 2017) Anna our bridal assistant did everything for me that day, she was truly my angel that day! Marchello and Vin were so cool! They were really the calm to my crazy that day and just made the night so so special. Marchello catered to myself and my groom, he brought us shots, and made sure we had plates of food! Vin coordinated packing up all of my centerpieces and special items we brought to the venue and made sure it was packed well, and we were stress free the entire night. Let me talk about food now... HOLY COW you truly get so much food, and let me tell you every single dish was 5 star! We have guests 3 weeks later STILL talking about how amazing the food was and how this was THE BEST wedding they have ever been too. I know people may say this but our families are pretty hard to please when you have Italians right off the boat, it means a lot. Get a cigar roller, it adds a little something special to your night, and it's FUN! I had a cigar that night and it was seriously the best. There was nothing bad about Anthony's at all, everything was beyond excellent. I wish I could relive the day over and over. Andrew was our wedding consultant and guided us through everything, he made sure we understood what we were getting, Cheryl, Kat, Jason and Thomas are other staff members that just made it EASY to plan a wedding, and everyone is SO NICE. I want to just get married all over again so I can have another day at Anthony's. Thank you so much Anthony's Ocean View, Book here if you want to feel like a King and Queen the day of your wedding, and have guests raving about your special day!

    They did an amazing job from setting up, food service, cocktail hour, to end of the night cleanup. Everyone on staff was very personable, and Anna who was our personal server for us was outstanding! All of our guests enjoyed the all the food, and said the place rocked for those who had never been there before. This was our destination wedding ceremony and reception since we live out of state, but all our families and friends live in CT. Special thanks to Andrew for helping us to set everything up, and Marchello who was there to make sure it was perfect on our day!

    If you're looking for a modern beach oasis, that's also budget-friendly, look no further! Check out the Brunch option---the food is absolutely amazing (and endless!), service is impeccable, and Anthony's goes above and beyond to ensure the day is perfect! Best day of our lives!

    we were beyond pleased and also loved the professionalism and sweet personalities. We felt very comfortable during our more intimate moments—it was as if he wasn't there. Dealing with unexpected circumstances: they kept on schedule and got all of photos I was hoping for. It was difficult to weed through all the good ones to get down to a manageable number for our wedding album! A number of our guests commented on how great everything was . Their rates are also very reasonable and we really appreciated that. If you have the chance to book , book them and don't look back!

    The entire experience at Anthony's Ocean View was so "Top Shelf", there are no words to adequately explain the amazing experience my bride and I had. The food was to die for. The service was exemplary. Everything we gave them to add to decorate the room was done. Our expectations were met and surpassed.

    They have such an amazing reputation, and we became fully aware as to why. Natalie, who helped us plan the event there, was the best ever. She did everything she could to help us have the day of our lives. I would recommend Anthony's to anyone, with confidence that they will have the same reactions as we did. They've been around, and they know what they are doing. They do it well. Hire them, and you won't be sorry.

    Anthony's was the perfect venue for our wedding. The staff could NOT have been more accomodating, helpful with every detail - we TRULY didn't have to worry about a thing the day of - they took care of everything. Anna and Thomas were so kind, attentive, and comforting. They were on top of it all. The venue set up was gorgeous! Food was plentiful and tasted amazing. The dessert bar was pretty much unmatched!!

    My husband and I got married at Anthony's Ocean View September 6th 2015. I grew up in the area so it was always a dream of mine to have my wedding there one day. From the very beginning, our wedding coordinator, Alberto, and the rest of the staff at Anthonys made the planning process simple, enjoyable and we're always there to answer any questions I had any time of the day. I like to be maybe a little TOO organized and Alberto , always with a smile, worked with all my probably insanely annoying spreadsheets, schedules , Etc. haha Every single time my husband and I left a meeting , we felt excited, ready and anxious for the big day! When our wedding day arrived, we had our ceremony on the beach and reception in the grand ballroom , every single detail was perfect. I still have friends who saw pictures and asked if We had a destination wedding because of how beautiful they made the beach , palm trees and all! And even when I had a question about something or Needed anything Alberto was there before I even knew what I needed!! The schedule/timing of the day was flawless and our guests are STILL raving about having the best food they have ever had at a wedding. Not to mention they tore up the dance floor the whole night long! My bridesmaids are still boasting about how Alberto came to rescue when one of the girls dresses ripped and needed it to be fixed. I don't think there is anything he can't do! To Alberto, the Del Monaco Family, and all the staff at Anthonys - thank you from the bottom of our hearts, for giving us the most amazing, beautiful , perfect wedding day we could have ever dreamed of ! We love you! Xoxo

    From the planning to the end of the reception I can only say great things about this venue. Besides the beautiful setting on the water and a ceremony on the beach, the food, the staff and the entire event was a wonderful night of celebration and fun that we will never forget. A 6 star rating goes to Alberto, the event coordinator at Anthony's, who made the planning so easy and perfect.

    Absolutely Amazing!!!
    I am completely beyond words to describe my experience with Anthony's. The moment I pulled up & Angelo met me at the door took me to the bridal suite & served me a glass of Champgne, I felt like royalty. We said our vows on the beach, had cocktail hour on the patio, dinner & dancing in their smallest room. EVERYTHING was perfect, the food was delicious, the staff professional, the sunset breathe taking.
    There was another wedding going on in their downstairs room & other than hearing their cheers at the end of their ceremony, (we were outside taking pictures) I never knew another wedding was going on.

It went so smoothly and better than I had ever imagined, it was a perfect day!! The food was amazing!! The Venetian table was out of this world! The staff made it all possible! I can't thank them enough!

    My husband and myself, along with our parents, family and friends could not say enough about Anthony's Ocean View. The staff is welcoming, charming and perfectly professional. We got married this past September and we felt like we were away on an island. If you're looking for a beach setting without the travel then we highly suggest you take a visit to Anthony's. Our family could not believe they were in New Haven, the setting is absolutely breath taking and the photos of our ceremony on the beach are more beautiful than we could have ever imagined. The day of our wedding the ambiance was dreamy and the food was amazing. Brian was our maitre d and he took care of us not only on the day of, but was extremely accommodating for all of our visits leading up to the big day.
    Everyone at Anthony's Ocean View, we want to thank you for being such a large contributor to the best day of our lives.

    Anthony's Oceanview is a beautiful place to have both your ceremony and reception. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure everything goes smoothly. My guests had nothing but great things to say about Anthony's and especially the outstanding and delicious food. Never was there a shortage or a tray empty. Every staff member was friendly and very accommodating. We especially appreciated the first class service we received as bride and groom.

    Our wedding was June 14, 2014 and it was absolutely beautiful!! Since I was a little girl, I have always wanted a beach wedding. My husband made my dreams come true, but Anthony's was the most magical place and I am so impressed with them. We were in the Rose Room that fit about 200 guests. I walked down the stairs with my husband before the ceremony to check everything and I literally cried my eyes out. The team at Anthony's set up all the tables, favors, centerpieces, and decorations....Just perfect!! The food was amazing!! We had the buffet, with a prime rib station, the venetian table, chocolate fountain, and much more. My guests were so ecstatic about the night! Everything was phenomenal and I want to thank Anthony's for making our wedding one of the most magical nights of my life. Everything was what I wanted and much more!! I would recommend them over and over again!!

    Anthonys Oceanview could not have been a better place to have our wedding at! The venue is gorgeous! We got married on the beach and the view of the water with all of the boats is just simply amazing. We also loved the palm trees that they bring in and plant on their beach, it made us feel like we were getting married on a beautiful island and it adds a special touch to the decor/setting.

    The food and service the day of our wedding was amazing!!!! Our maitre'd Daniella was very attentive and helpful. She made sure that during the ceremony she helped with the brides dress to get up the stairs and onto the beach. She also made sure we were drinking and eating and that we were happy. Anything we asked her to do she did with a smile on her face.

    Brian the event coordinator was also wonderful before the wedding and also the day of the wedding. He made sure that everything was going smoothly,refilled our drinks and made sure that our food was not placed on our table until we were seated and ready to eat. He was always ready and waiting to lend a helping hand when we needed it!

    All of our wedding guest keep telling us how beautiful the venue and it's location are and how amazing the food, service and desserts were!!

    We are Very happy with our decision to get married at Anthonys Ocean View!! Thank you to all of the staff for making our wedding day beautiful!!

    Jaimie and Matthew D'Angelo

    I was the mother of the bride and thoroughly enjoyed myself for the wedding reception as everything was attended to. The food was incredible; especially the appetizers served outdoors. The staff is very professional and we couldn't have asked for more. From the prewedding details to the event date it was wonderful.

    I can not say one bad thing about Anthony's Ocean View. The food is outstanding and the staff is more than willing to work with your special request(s). As a bride you want to feel comfortable calling the venue multiple times to ask questions (because you want your day to be perfect). Not once did the staff make me feel that I shouldn't be asking too many questions. If your looking for a "destination wedding" location then this is the perfect venue for you. We had a beautiful ceremony on the beach then made our way to the best part of the wedding... the party! The pictures came out beautiful and no one can believe that the wedding took place in New Haven, CT.

    We had the most amazing wedding! From top to bottom every detail was taken care of!
    Anthony's Ocean View catered to my every need as a bride and calmed all of my nerves! From Marcelo helping and reassuring us throughout the process, To Katarina making sure EVERY last detail was exactly how I wanted it, all the way to the kindness of Brittany our bride/groom server who was super sweet and helpful and actually made sure we ate!!!

    We were also given the royal treatment every time we went there. Always offered wonderful refreshments and a caring ear. For our final details meeting we got held up for a few minutes because they were so busy and Anthony, Katarina and their staff served us an amazing spread of Italian meats, cheeses and appetizers while we waited! They were just phenomenal and always overly hospitable.

    And okay I am Italian so can we just talk about the amazing food!!! Oh my goodness! Our main concern when searching for a venue was that the food needed to be outstanding. And let me tell you we hit the JACKPOT!!! Our guests were sooo extremely happy with EVERY last piece of food down to the extraordinary venetian dessert table! Oh my goodness, for someone who is in LOVE with sweets, I was in heaven and so was every other person in the room!

    The décor of the venue is just breathtaking and it is a small little piece of island wonder in CT!!! From the gorgeous beach for our ceremony to the amazing garden for cocktail hour, our guests were also given the most beautiful, royal treatment that we had already experienced personally.

    We could not have been happier with our choice of Anthony's Ocean View. We had the most fabulous and memorable day of our lives! We would truly like to thank every single person from this venue who helped make our day so perfect!! :)

    My husband and I had an amazing time on our wedding day. Everything was perfect. The food was amazing (so we heard, we were too busy to eat! I did get one bite in). They were very helpful with us through the entire process. We were not living in CT while planning the wedding and the staff was amazing. I would tell anyone to have a wedding or party here. It was truly amazing!

    Anthony's Ocean view did a phenomenal job on the day of my wedding! They worked well with communicating with us and making sure we got everything we wanted. The food was amazing and they did a great job styling the event. The location was beautiful, and we had the ceremony outside by the beach. Even though it was drizzling on that morning, they still tried to have a plan b set up for us. I thought it was really nice of them, but we still manage to have an outside ceremony. Everyone that worked there that day were very pleasant and welcoming. We thank you for everything you guys did for us, and we recommend anyone to have they're wedding there.

    Our daughter had her wedding reception on 10/19/13 at Anthony's. From start to finish, they were a first class venue to deal with! Nothing was too much for them to accomplish when it came to accomodating our wishes or our guests comfort! The value was amazing! Kudos to Thomas, Alberto and head waitress, Anna! The cocktail hour was outstanding and was held outside on the patio. It felt as though we were at a resort. The cocktail hour was limitless in selection, the dinners timed perfectly and the Venetian table variety and presentation beautiful! It has been two weeks since the wedding and our guests and family are still raving about it!!! Grazie Mille, Anthony's staff!!

    We just recently got married at Anthony's and I would recommend this venue to anyone! The food was delicious, the staff was beyond polite and helpful, they were accommodating to our needs and everyone had such a good time! The venue was beautiful and made for excellent pictures as well. I couldn't have asked for a better day and a better venue for our reception. We were in the upstairs room and it just looked so beautiful when it all was put together! Thank you Anthony's!

    From the start of planning to the end of the wedding, we were blown away by the service at Anthony's! The staff at Anthony's is amazing! We worked with many consultants which we were worried about at first, but they are very organized to ensure nothing goes wrong the day of the event no matter who your consultant is! There is always a consultant on site 9am-9pm which worked perfectly with our crazy schedules. Alberto was our consultant the day of the wedding and was readily available at all times. He even bustled my dress for me!!! The food was amazing and my guests can't stop talking about how blown away with not only the amount of food there was, but also the quality. The venue can hold up to 3 events at one time which was the case for our wedding, but you couldn't hear a thing from the other two events! You won't find great service and great food at any other venue in CT and not to mention a beautiful view!!!!

    Anthonys did an amazing job! The food was great, service outstanding, and the venue is beautiful!! We got married on the beach and it was a very hot day. The staff at Anthony's were very accommodating in every way! Also - we got married on a Thursday night so the package was half price!! We are more than happy!

    From day one of planning, the staff was the best. Working primarily with Rob, every time I walked into his office frazzled he calmly took care of my situation and offered the best solutions that it made me feel silly for worrying in the first place (lol). The day of my wedding, Thomas was helpful, calm (despite starting an half hour late due to my lateness) and went with the flow. I would HIGHLY recommend having your reception (and wedding if need be) here. Thank you to Anthony's Ocean View for helping to make this one of the best days of my life!!

    Staff was extremely polite and helpful each and every time I was in contact with them. The food was amazing and the view is just breath taking! I am so happy that they had the availability for us because the minute I saw this place I knew that there would be no other place that could compare to it!

    When we first saw Anthony's we knew it was the place we would get married. It is like a destination wedding without the airfare. From the ceremony on the beach to the garden cocktail hour and then finally to the reception it exceeded everything we could have imagined. The food was amazing, the liquor kept flowing and the venetian hour was amazing (especially the liquor shots and fondue fountain). Special thanks to Rob our Maître D as he made sure everything flowed smoothly and ensured everything we wanted happened. I would highly recommend this place to anyone that is looking for an amazing place at a great price and even to feel like you are on vacation.

    5 star from beginning to end!! From the initial meeting to handing us wet cloths after the cake cutting, Anthony's has been and always will be my favorite banquet facility in the State of CT!!! The comments from my guests include, "friendly, great service, great bar tender, outstanding customer service, and the food was MAGNIFICENT!"

    Anthonys ocean view is great! We picked Anthony's due their professionalism and beauty. We had our ceremony outside on the beach and reception inside in the ballroom, and it was classy, beautiful and modern just like we pictured it to be. I was breathless when I first entered into the room, it was everything and more of what's had pictured and imagined! The service was fantastic and the food was out of this world ! Our guests raved about the food, desserts and beauty of everything that night brought! Dropping all of our stuff off the day before for them to set up and place for us was very nerve racking for me, but they did a perfect job of setting up and placing everything just where it belonged and everything was gorgeous !!! Thank you so much !!

    My wedding at Anthony's Ocean View was everything I dreamed it would be. My only gripe with Anthony's was that you aren't assigned a staff member who works with your wedding specifically until close to the wedding day so you have to direct your questions to a number of different people. That being said, I have always received the answers and more from each of the people that I did speak with and everyone is very knowledgeable and professional. The venue is GORGEOUS...I can't even tell you how many compliments I got on how beautiful everything was. Numerous people told me it was the most beautiful, smoothly run wedding they have ever been to. Not only that, but their food is to die for...people raved about how delicious their food was...and not just good for a wedding, but some of the best food they've ever eaten anywhere. I would recommend Anthony's without hesitation to anyone wishing for a fairytale wedding.

    We recently got married at Anthony's on May 18, 2012 and our experience was simply AMAZING. We looked at several reception locations and while several are beautiful, very few offer amazing food and waitstaff. We had a beautiful day for our reception and were able to take pictures on the water and hold cocktail hour outside. The ambiance on the patio is perfect and makes you feel like you are at a destination wedding. The food was simply amazing- we went with stations and found that package offers a delicious variety that appeals to everyone. The staff assigned to us- we had Alberto and Anna- were by our sides from the moment we arrived until the moment we left. They were professional but very friendly and helped us with anything we needed from drinks to food to even bringing me my dancing shoes! Working with Anthony's staff to plan the wedding (seating charts, menus, decor) was very easy and they guide you through the process one step at a time. For what wedding venues cost in today's world, Anthony's is WORTH EVERY CENT!!!!

    Anthony's Ocean View was a fabulous destination for our summer wedding! The food was fantastic, as well as the amenities! All of the staff was helpful before, during, and after the wedding. I highly recommend Anthony's for a wedding or any other event. The place is beautiful, and we have such wonderful pictures to remember our amazing wedding day!

    where should I start, by far this is the best place to have your wedding.. the service is great.. my wedding Coordinator was awesome.. he did everything and make sure it was my day... people at my wedding were coming up to me and asking me who they should contact to book this place. The scenery was beautiful and the the service was great. They made my day very special and I couldnt have asked for more.. If you want to have a wedding of your dreams this is the place and Alberto will make it happen.

    Anthony's Ocean View was so AMAZING!!! It is a beautiful location and the food is fantastic! They were so accomodating to us, we had an unexpected guest attend our wedding (hurricane Earl) we were supposed to get married outside but due to Earl Anthony's set the entire wedding up inside and it was still georgous! They helped make our favorite memory and all of our family and friends still go on and on about our wedding and how it was the best wedding they have ever been to!!! Thank you Anthony's :)

    Anthony's did an amazing job at our wedding. Our ceremony and reception were run by Thomas, who was incredible in everything that he did. He was able to simultaneously seat guests, make sure that we were okay, calm down any nerves, and make sure that everything ran smoothly. He was everywhere at once, but never obtrusively. By the end of the evening, every guest in the room knew his name and every child adored him.

    The food was amazing, the ceremony was gorgeous, and the staff could not have been more accommodating and friendly every step of the way. We do not have a single negative thing to say. Every guest told us how it had been the best wedding they had ever attended and how they were going to be sure to recommend the venue to friends in the future.

    Anthony's was the perfect place to have a wedding! They catered to every need we had, I even had my own waiter to make sure I had everyhting I needed. My friends and family are still talking about how wonderful the food was. We had a cocktail hour with over 20 different appetizers, 5 hour open bar a three course dinner a wedding cake and the most fabulous venetian table I had ever seen. My husband and I live in MA along with his side of the family, my family is in NJ, so we decided to meet in the middle to make travel fair for all sides. Anthony's was perfect,they helped with any questions we had in a quick and thorough manner. We got married outside in the gazebo and looking at the pictures it looks like we are on an island not in CT. I would highly recommended Anthony's as a place to have a wedding.

    We wanted to have a vegan wedding, and we were planning it from a different state. Anthony's was completely receptive to the idea and put out an absolutely amazing feast. They say a bride never eats on her wedding day, but how could I help it? The food was incredible.

    Anthony's also graciously offered their garden for our ceremony in the morning, despite the fact that they would be catering our reception off site. We had booked a venue for the reception, and they were happy to set up and provide the table linens for us. They also offered a bar service.

    Our wedding was a dream, and Anthony's played a big part in that!

    Service was excellent. Food and added features such as the dessert table with optional fog were loved by guests at our wedding. Staff was very helpful and gave us discounts on chair covers. Chef made a special meal for the bride. We had an interfaith wedding (Jewish/Catholic) and included both gazebos in our ceremony. We accidentally sent out wedding invitations with the time being 30 min earlier and they were very accommodating and had everything set up on time. Before the wedding we made many visits to Anthony's to look around and plan things out and people were happy to show us around as long as there wasn't an event going on. We had a beautiful wedding on the ocean at sunset. Perfect location and many things were included making planning easy. Highly reccommended!

    Every detail was taken care of on our wedding day. We had our ceremony on the beach and our personal butler assigned to us brought a basin of water for my wife to wash the sand off of her feet. He took amazing care of us throughout the night. Our photographers brought us outside to take pictures for sunset and we had just sat down to eat our meal. When we came back in he personally went and made us new plates hot off the buffet table. We honestly never dreamed of such service or the amazing day we had. All of the staff was so great. Thank you for everything!

    Anthony's completely knocked it out of the park for our June wedding! It was the second venue we looked at a year and a half prior to our wedding date and I told me fiance we weren't leaving until we put down a deposit. During our planning, Alberto and the rest of the staff were so friendly, helpful, and just happy to go out of their way for us. They are true professionals. Especially in the weeks leading up to our wedding, Alberto was so happy to oblige with every silly little question that I had and special requests. They even special ordered Pimm's cocktails so that I could have it as our signature drink! AND, I was told by one of my guests that they ran out of it during the reception and someone went to a liquor store to get more. Our reception at Anthony's was an absolute dream come true with Thomas attending to our every need. Our friends and family are still talking about the gorgeous setting, the food (and amount of!), the staff, and just the entire day was magnificent. Thank you for everything!!

    Anthony's Ocean View is a stunning venue. The decor is gorgeous and the staff is completely professional and organized. Alberto was absolutely incredible and did everything in his power to make sure that I am happy and set. Not to mention the beautiful ocean background was perfect for our military/nautical themed wedding!

    I couldn't picture a better Venue. Anthony's Ocean View was very attentive, and did a fantastic job. Their staff was constantly on point making sure things went the way they were supposed to. You will not be sorry if you book with them. Great place!!

    My wedding venue was absolutely amazing!!!! The food, the staff, the location, absolutely amazing! My guests are still talking about how beautiful the facilities are!! The only thing I have to complain about is that during my outdoor ceremony, the pump that was providing electricity to the waterfall kept making weird noises that were kind of loud and distracting. Other than that, everything was amazing!!!

    Anthony's was great and I would def recommend it as a venue. The food is by far the best out of all the venues (everyone talked about it). If you are going to have a wedding, let the food stand out because thats what guests are going to remember. They were very helpful and went out of their way to make my night go smoothly. They treat you like king and queen.
    We got married on their beach. My only complaint was paying a $500 fee to get married on a public beach!
    It was worth it though.Cocktail hour on the patio is amazing, everyone loved it. The accomodate you in every way possible :)
