Bonnet Island Estate made our dream wedding come true! From the pre planning process with Mary to the day of the wedding at Bonnet Island was absolute perfection. Mary made the planning so easy and stress free. The entire staff paid attention to detail and went above and beyond to ensure we were happy. The bridal attendants were so attentive, helpful and friendly! The staff, service, food and beautiful estate were all so amazing that we received so many compliments from our guests. We can’t thank them enough for how great they were. We highly recommend Bonnet Island Estate!Bonnet Island Estate made our dream wedding come true!

Wedding of our dreams!
The wedding was absolutely perfect in every single way. That is no exaggeration. Working with Andrea for the months leading up to our big day was an amazing experience- she’s prompt, honest, experienced, and made me feel like she cared so much about our wedding in a way that was bigger than just being her job. The day of crew of Andrea, Lauren, Nancy, Brooke, and Kaylin made all the difference- every detail was taken care of not just for the Groom and I, but our entire wedding party! They bring professionalism to another level and truly are in the business of making dreams come true! The food, the grounds, the staff were all IMPECCABLE!The wedding was absolutely perfect in every single way. That is no exaggeration.

The venue of our dreams, with an A+ team
Where to begin!? Bonnet Island was the very first venue we seriously toured, and while we did our due diligence by looking elsewhere, we knew it was the place instantly. From the setting to the design details to the stellar staff, everything was perfect.
Andrea and her team at Weddings of Distinction took such good care of us. When we had to postpone by a full year due to COVID, they were incredibly flexible and let us transfer to a new date we felt more comfortable with. They were helpful with vendor recommendations but were also happy to work with new faces.
Though we brought in our own independent weekend coordinator to help us out, Andrea still inspired confidence that she could have handled the whole weekend herself with her eyes closed — you'd be in great hands with just the Weddings of Distinction team. The whole team, from the bridal attendants (yay Jordan and Kayla!) to the maître d' to the overnight manager, was so great. If there were any logistical hiccups day of, we were blissfully unaware.
Everyone hopes for perfect weather on their wedding day, but I think where Bonnet shone brightest might have been how it faired even on a sub-optimal day with a weather contingency. We had high winds, cloudy skies, and a sprinkle of rain for our October wedding day, but guests could enjoy the open-air, yet covered Boathouse Chapel ceremony and Veranda cocktail hour while still taking in the gorgeous waterfront views.
We ended up with about 165 guests and an 11-piece band, all of which fit very comfortably in the ballroom. I understand the occupancy can go higher, but this was perfect for us — we filled the space but didn't feel overly crowded.
We loved the overnight accommodations (all 12 on-site guest suites are OUT OF THIS WORLD and such a value add) and the fact that we had the full run of the property for an on-site after party. After many hours of dancing in the ballroom, we set up late-night karaoke in the main floor of the house, which went until the wee hours of the morning. The Bonnet/Weddings of Distinction team really helped our unique vision come to life and encouraged us to be creative with the space!
Our guests keep saying it was the most beautiful setting for a wedding, and they're 100% right. For that, we can't thank the team at Bonnet enough!Where to begin!?

Absolutely perfect!
A dream come true. The estate, it’s amenities, the staff, the food, the grounds….all of it is a 10/10 and made our wedding weekend beyond our expectations!! It’s more than a beautiful venue…it’s an experience. We often reflect on how choosing Bonnet was the best decision we made around our wedding and how we’re so grateful. Andrea is incredible — so attentive, patient, kind, professional and a joy to work with. The whole team is!! They truly make you feel like Bonnet is yours - for the wedding weekend and forever. We cannot recommend Bonnet Island Estate enough - it’s absolutely gorgeous and every single thing is taken care of so seamlessly and professionally.

The PERFECT Wedding Venue!
We could not have asked for a better venue for our wedding day! From our initial tour with Danielle to the morning after our wedding was nothing short of fabulous! Our guests are STILL talking about what a beautiful and different venue Mallard Island is.
Danielle is amazing and fun to work with! She was extremely responsive and professional throughout the planning process and kept in constant communication with us. Wedding planning can be stressful but Danielle made it seamless for us and we can not thank her enough for everything to make our day so perfect!
Our bridal attendant was amazing too! She tended to us from start to finish and was always 5 steps ahead of knowing exactly what we needed without us having to say a word. She helped calm any nerves I had throughout the entire day and kept everything positive and fun!
We are forever grateful to Danielle, Taste and the entire Mallard Island staff and crew for everything they did to go above and beyond to make sure our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more!We could not have asked for a better venue for our wedding day!

Absolutely amazing. We couldn’t have been happier with our experience!
Bonnet Island Estate was the most amazing venue. From the way the staff help decorate to the food, it was absolutely amazing. My wedding was on a Friday, so I was lucky enough to be able to get into the Estate at 9am to get ready the whole day. Lauren, my bridal attendant was absolutely the star of the show for me. She was so attentive and so nice. Every time I turned around she was there to see if I needed anything. She also helped me with my train the whole time I was taking pictures. She really helped keep my stress level down! Everyone came up to me throughout the night telling me how amazing the food was and they weren’t wrong! The food was the best wedding food I have ever had. The next morning everything was already packed up and waiting for us by the door to easily load our cars. The service was outstanding and they made it so easy for us to have an amazing time. They really made my day a dream and I wish I could do it all over again!Bonnet Island Estate was the most amazing venue. From the way the staff help decorate to the food, it was absolutely amazing.

The excellence you deserve for your special day
We were very familiar with Taste Catering's reputation for excellence when we chose this venue. We expected them to knock it out of the part and they did. That's no small thing. They set the bar high and they delivered. Every part of our event excelled. Kudos to Danielle and the staff.Mark Corcoran · married on 08/17/2019

Perfection!
Where do I begin?! From the moment we met with Danielle at Mallard Island Yacht Club for a tour to our wedding day we were exceptionally pleased with the professionalism and outstanding service! Our dream wedding was made possible by the gorgeous and pristine venue, outstanding customer service & delicious food!
Danielle had me on track from the moment we booked the venue. Wedding planning was a breeze!! Jason and I cannot thank our Bridal Attendance Madeline enough... she was calm, professional and put us at ease!! She also made sure I was able to get the coconut shrimp during pictures.. all I dreamed of! LOL
We have no regrets. Taste Catering and Mallard Island Yacht Club were truly the best decision we have made.

Best night of my life
I can not thank Danielle, and the rest of the staff at Taste/Mallard enough for making all of my wedding dreams come true! From our first tour of Mallard and meeting Danielle, I knew this was the place for me to have my wedding reception. I always starred at the beauty of Mallard Island Yacht Club while driving over the bridge on our trips to/from LBI, but I fell even more in love with it once going on the tour. The location, decor, and architecture of the Mallard Island Yacht Club in unlike any venue you will find in NJ. Danielle greeted us with a hug and was so cheerful and sweet. Aside from how incredible her personality is, Danielle is extremely prompt, organized, and professional. Whenever I had questions about something she would make the time to get back to me. I am so lucky to have had her and her team with me that day. Not only was the service great, but the food was AMAZING. Most people say you don't get the chance to eat on your wedding, but they made sure I got to have everything/always served us first. People raved about the food and service to us as well. From checking in, to cocktail hour, the reception, and checking out the next day, Danielle and the staff made us feel so at ease. We could not have asked for a better place to celebrate our marriage!

Worth the hype
Worth the hype
Weddings of Distinction (we married at Mallard Island w/ Taste Catering) live up to the hype and more. At our first tour of the venue, my husband and I knew right away that there would be no where else that could live up to what Mallard has to offer. With weddings being so expensive right out of the gate, we put a lot of thought into if a venue this costly would really be worth it-and now that our day has come and gone, we think Mallard and everyone you will work with there make it worth every penny.
Danielle was such an efficient and responsive wedding coordinator- she was always available for any questions and had all the answers. So much is taken care of for you by her so that you can really enjoy other parts of the planning experience. They really think through all of the details for you! Our bridal attendant Madeline was the absolute sweetest and so beyond helpful that day- she really was a pleasure to have around! Great staff all around.
Obviously the venue & location speak for itself at first glance. The food through Taste Catering was delicious and had great choices. Being able to go to Carlo's Bake Shoppe in Hoboken for our cake tasting (through Taste) was a really fun added experience.

MIYC is a DREAM Wedding Venue!
The experience that my husband and I had at Mallard Island Yacht Club (MIYC) was incredible and nearly flawless from the second I toured the venue until the second I left the morning after my wedding. To start off, I just want to say that although MIYC may seem more expensive than some other venues that you will tour, you cannot put a price tag on this once in a lifetime experience. Throughout my review, I will highlight all of the amazing things I experienced at MIYC.
Ever since we toured the wedding venue 2+ years, Danielle has been AMAZING and a complete angel to work with. Danielle has a lot of experience in weddings and her level of professionalism and her passion for what she does will not go unnoticed. Danielle keeps all of her couples organized with monthly reminders and updates and truly excels at envisioning what her couple wants. With the stress of the wedding lingering, Danielle decorated the venue with ease, made sure that my bridal attendant catered to my needs, and ran the show effortlessly. She is truly an asset to MIYC and any couple would be fortunate enough to work with her.
In addition to Danielle, the other staff at MIYC was also outstanding. My bridal attendant made sure that everything ran flawlessly while I was getting ready and catered to any need that I had throughout the evening. The overnight manager was amazing to make sure that we were comfortable throughout our stay at Mallard Island. The wait staff did a great job getting our food out in a timely manner. The food that Taste Catering provided was delicious and all of our guests had positive things to say about the food that they ate.
MIYC is exceptional and all of my wedding guests agreed that this was the most beautiful wedding venue they have ever seen. As I got ready in the bridal suite, the surrounding views of the water were amazing and what every bride dreams of. Getting married on the dock was beyond beautiful and the chapel is truly amazing. The guest suites are all decorated perfectly and our bridal party loved their rooms. Being able to hangout with our bridal party all night and wake up the next morning and having them be there to celebrate with us was priceless. You cannot put a price on having all of your bridal party under the same roof with you for the entire 24 hours that we were in MIYC. The cocktail hour is the perfect mix of indoor and outdoor and has something for everyone. The outside area with the fire pit and chairs was the perfect hangout for our after party and the luxury of having an after party at our venue was priceless.
Overall, our experience at MIYC was nothing short of amazing and I would recommend this venue to anyone who wants to have the wedding of their dreams.

The perfect wedding at Mallard Island!
Where do we even start! It’s been just over a month since our storybook wedding at Mallard Island Yacht Club and I am still can’t believe how amazing our experience was! From our first tour of the venue, to our wedding day Danielle and the team at Taste Catering made our wedding a dream come true!
My husband and I had the most magnificent fourth of July wedding at Mallard Island! Danielle was a dream to work with, supporting us at every step of the wedding process, helping us plan our special day, and working closely with my husband and I to make sure each and every detail was perfect. From our amazing food, to orchestrating the day with all of our vendors, Danielle’s team makes sure every last detail of the wedding is perfect. She advised us on every step of the wedding planning, made sure our food was perfect, and gave us the support and advice to put a perfect weeding week together. Taste was accommodating, and flexible- willing to work with you on every last detail of your menu and make sure your food and service is exactly what you want. We looked at so many venues with rigid menus and limited flexibility and the complete customization of our wedding at Mallard Island was a huge draw to planning our wedding.
Our guests are still raving about Mallard Island, and just how magnificent this venue is for hosting a special day! The grounds of the estate are breathtaking, and provide the most incredible background to say “I do”. The grounds at Mallard Island are beautifully manicured, and the staff works to create an experience your guests will not soon forget! I cannot how count the number of friends and family still saying our wedding was the very best they have ever been to! From the bridal attendant on the day of the wedding to the bartenders serving your guests all night the level of service was next level and made for the most incredible wedding experience.

We highly recommend Weddings of Distinction and Taste Catering for the most amazing Long Beach Island wedding! Thank you Danielle and your entire team for making our wedding night the best day of our lives!

A Dream Wedding!
When my fiancé and I stepped into Mallard Island Yacht Club we knew it blew every single venue we viewed out of the water (and we went to A LOT of venues). We went home and tried to compare every venue to Mallard & every time we found things that Mallard did that just wasn't possible at other venues. After booking with Mallard, every time we would tell someone where we were getting married people had questions. Do you have to bring everything in? Don't you have to pay to rent the entire estate plus food and alcohol? Do you have to bring your own table and chairs? Although the website may be a little vague, I tell everyone to go and visit the venue! No, you do not have to bring anything in. You work with the wedding coordinator (who I will talk about!) and she walks you through everything. The catering is in house, the table and chairs are provided, alcohol is done with one store, etc. Let's face it weddings are expensive in New Jersey and Mallard Island is something that is 100% worth the money. From the top of the line service from the moment you book with them, to the idea that you can still have your ceremony outdoors if it rains, to the BEAUTIFUL bridal suite, I can go on and on about how perfect of a venue this place truly is.
Danielle is the wedding coordinator and she is a godsend. She was the most responsive person I dealt with throughout the entire wedding planning process. She answered all of my questions quickly and with thought. She made us feel so comfortable in meetings and I knew we were in the best hands when the wedding day came. She even help with the last minute items that I didn't have time to complete when we dropped off the items earlier in the week! I stepped into mallard and she told me "welcome to the bridal bubble, today is your day and everything will be perfect". Boy was she right, I was stress free the entire day and she had a lot to do with that. She even showed me pictures of the centerpieces (which was one of the only things I was worried about) as soon as the florist completed them. She thoughtfully placed all of our wedding signs, guest book, card box, programs, etc. and everything looked beautiful. I cannot say enough good things about Danielle. We were blessed to have someone as amazing as Danielle help with our special day.
Overall, the rest of the staff went above and beyond. The bridal attendant was with me the entire day. She held my lip gloss, fixed my hair, held my dress, brought me tissues when I started to tear up at our first look and even bustled my dress after the ceremony. She was so helpful and sweet. Everyone from the maitre d, overnight staff, wait staff, bartenders, etc. were so friendly and experienced. Our guests continue to rave about the food and how often the passed hors d'oeuvres were going around. I wish I could get married at Mallard Island Yacht Club over and over again. People told us your wedding day goes by so fast for all that money, to us it went by perfectly, not too fast and every single moment was perfect.

Our wedding was a dream come true
Since my mom is a local florist, I grew up around setting up weddings at Mallard Island since I was young. The staff at Taste became like family to me. I had always dreamed of having my wedding at Mallard and in July of 2019, my dream came true. My husband Josh and I got married at mallard and although I already expected it to be beautiful, I have to say Josh and I were BLOWN AWAY. As a bride I thought I would have the normal "stress" that comes with the big day. Taste Catering took that stress off of us and ran the whole show. Josh and I felt so relaxed and had so much fun together, thanks to Taste. Not only was the food the talk of the night, our guests were taken care of by the wonderful staff.
Lets talk food. Weddings are all about the food when it comes to guests and Taste really brings gourmet savory food and lots of options to the table. Cocktail hour, Salads and the main course were absolutely perfect. Josh even asked for seconds!
A few months later and reflecting on our wedding day, we feel so grateful we chose to have our wedding at Mallard and extremely thankful for Taste Catering for not only catering but truly taking care of us. I had huge expectations since I knew how it was supposed to be done, and still Josh and I are in complete awe of how our big day played out. We couldn't thank Taste enough for making that happen and making our memories one we will never want to forget.
To the future Mr and Mrs, YES Taste is a great decision that you will be glad you made for your wedding day.Since my mom is a local florist, I grew up around setting up weddings at Mallard Island since I was young.

Fairytale!
Where do I even start? From the moment I walked through the doors at Mallard, I knew this would be the place my husband and I would get married. Everyone who walks through the door clearly knows how beautiful of a venue Mallard is. What they don't know off the bat is just how amazing Danielle is.
Danielle made the wedding planning process a breeze. She provided guidance and suggestions and made my husband and I feel as if we were the only couple she was taking care of. She is truly a master at her craft. Her insanely quick response time to any and all emails never went unnoticed and was always appreciated it. She kept us up to date on timeline and what needed to be done and when. Her no-nonsense and commanding attitude made our day run so incredibly smooth. My husband and I were never made aware of any hiccups that may have happened the day of our wedding. There isn't enough high praise that I could give Danielle. She was truly amazing. As was Maddie, our bridal attendant who made sure we were well fed and always with a drink in hand.
The food was yet another thing to rave about. We were able to tailor our menu with the help of Danielle to taken bits of one menu and bits from another to make it exactly what we wanted. We were requested 3 passed Hors d'oeuvre that were not on the menu and the chefs were happy to create them for us. Everything was amazing and unbelievably tasty.
Our wedding was truly the best day of our lives and we owe much of that to Danielle and the staff at Mallard and Taste Catering. We would without a doubt recommend them to ANYONE!

Mallard Island Yacht Club
Of all the places that my husband and I looked at prior to Mallard Island just seemed like a waste of time. Mallard Island is the COMPLETE package. We chose to reserve the estate for the evening and over night to ensure we could have some of our guests stay on property. Having everything in one spot truly spoke to my husband and I - we are hospitality professionals and know how important it is to keep everyone in one place to ensure you don't loose anyone in the relocating process. We are also from the Jersey Shore area (Atlantic City) so we always wanted to have our big day on the water which Mallard delivered with their chapel at the end of the dock over the water, it was a vision. The estate is beautiful with 10 suites for your guests to stay and one MASSIVE bridal suite (ladies, you have to see it, it's jaw dropping). The effortless transition from ceremony, to cocktail hour, to reception, finally to our after party made our night. It was more or less a big house party! We loved the look and feel of Mallard Island and 10/6/19 will go down as the best day of our lives!!Of all the places that my husband and I looked at prior to Mallard Island just seemed like a waste of time.

Danielle for the Win
Where do I even begin? MIYC was the first venue we toured and we kept coming back to it - the bridal suite alone is a selling point. However, for us, it was Danielle who captured our hearts.
The venue is beautiful and the plus of having some of your guests stay over was unique. We were nervous about the food because my group of guests are 'foodies' however everyone is still talking about how amazing everything was. Unfortunately for us, we got married during a hurricane but let it be known that the crew at MIYC are professionals when it comes to the weather. They did not skip a beat and the day went off without a hitch.
When it comes to Danielle, her professionalism and personality shines through it all. She is so accomodating and helpful. I'm not sure what we would have done without her throughout the whole process. She sends check in emails to keep you up to date on what's going on, what you should be doing at this point in your wedding process which I really appreciated. She is also SO helpful the day of the wedding. She walked me down the aisle with an umbrella (along with 3 other member of the MIYC crew) to make sure not 1 ounce of water got on me. She is perfection in every way possible.
As other people have mentioned in the review, the MIYC is a little pricey but to be able to completely trust your venue is something you can't put a value on.

A dream come true!
Everything from start to finish at Mallard Island Yacht Club was perfect and so much easier than I ever imagined. From day one Danielle was incredible! Her responsiveness and way of making you feel like you were her only care in the world made planning so easy! Come wedding weekend she and her crew made the entire day go so smooth. There was not one thing I could think of that wasn’t 100% perfect. Maddie, our bridal attendant, was also amazing. Before I could even stop to think to ask her something she already had it done without being overwhelming at all. She was definitely my angel that day!
Taste catering food was to die for! The meals were prepared to perfection, our guests raved about how good everything was from the bacon wrapped scallops hor d'oeuvres to the perfectly cooked fillets. Everything was incredible.
I cannot thank and also recommend Danielle and her team at Taster Catering enough!

Our Fairy Tale Wedding
WOW... Fresh back from our honeymoon and all week we were trying to figure out the perfect thing to say but WOW just kept coming to my mind. Danielle and team over at the Mallard Island Yacht Club operate like a well oiled machine. Everything from the initial consultation to our million questions =) through to the real Fairytale wedding that everyone hopes and dreams to have one day. Well... all we can say from first hand experience is... if that is what you dreamed to have it can be a complete reality. Our guests are still raving about it.. we quote "Best wedding we have ever been to!" "EPIC". It's as if you were watching a movie where the magical wedding is happening....except it's yours!
When we first went to Mallard to meet with Danielle for the initial walk through, walking through the doors we knew right away that was the place we wanted to have our wedding. You feel like you are walking into a resort and you never want to leave! The building and grounds are truly magnificent and extremely well taken care of, the rooms are unbelievable and immaculately clean.. the bridal suite...well that's breathtaking and takes things to a completely other level. I assure you, your mouth will drop the minute you see it. Being on the water, the views are amazing and make for great photos. The Groom shack is a man-cave that only guys can dream of. The ceremony in front of that fireplace surrounded by the water... need i say more? Rain or shine it doesn't matter... they have plans for every single scenario! No matter what mother nature throws, you will have the best day of your life.
The food is beyond delicious.. i still remember our tasting (YUMMY). We didn't know what to expect. When picking out the menu, we were salivating at all the food there was going to be. However, having been to many weddings at other places food in such mass quantities doesn't always hit the mark. At Mallard with Taste Catering, well it's as if you are sitting at a top rated restaurant and sets the bar to another level. The menu is unlike anything you would have ever expected for a wedding. Everything from cocktail hour to dinner and dessert to the optional After-Party... you seriously want to live there! There was SO much food and EVERYTHING tasted delicious. I wish i had some here right now as we write this review to be completely honest.
Our wedding was truly a fairy tale... it was everything we could have ever hoped / dreamed and then some. Danielle is a machine and is really passionate about what she does... she's phenomenal at it. She knows everything (we couldn't stump her, i am not kidding!) and I am convinced that she doesn't sleep because as soon as we would send a random email over asking a question we would have a reply instantly. They say wedding planning is stressful.. but the planning was so smooth because everything is so organized.
Danielle and team at the Mallard Island Yacht Club deserve more stars and accolades then you can select here. We are living proof that your dream wedding can be a reality. If you are looking for a venue... make sure you check this place out. I PROMISE you won't be disappointed.

My husband and I recently got married at Bonnet Island Estate and it was the best decision we ever made. Mary made the whole process stress-free and fun. She was very accessible and was always prompt with her responses. The venue itself was gorgeous and the wedding went off without a hitch. The food was amazing and the staff was polite and efficient. We would highly recommend having your wedding at Bonnet, you won’t regret it!My husband and I recently got married at Bonnet Island Estate and it was the best decision we ever made.

Our best day ever
I don't know how I can put into words how absolutely perfect our wedding day was at Mallard Island Yacht Club. First and foremost, Danielle of Taste Catering was definitely my fairy godmother for our "Happily Ever After". From the minute we chose Mallard Danielle was there every step of the way to answer my questions. She suggested vendors, told me when things were absolutely necessary versus when I could easily leave them out, talked me off of the ledge about minor details more times than I can count, and FLAWLESSLY handled our rehearsal and wedding day. If I emailed her, I had a response within an hour. I didn't have to worry about a thing on the day of the wedding other than marrying my best friend and spending time with our loved ones. Every decoration my husband and I made or brought with us was meticulously placed where Danielle and I had decided it should go and the things I wasn't sure about Danielle handled beautifully. Walking in and seeing our bride and groom Minnie and Mickey hats on our sweetheart table was such a small beautiful touch that ONLY someone like Danielle would pick up on. Maddie our bridal attendant was amazing and made sure that my husband and I had everything that we needed before and after the ceremony. She held my dress in the cold, carried a plate around during the cocktail hour so that my husband could continue to pick at the food while we greeted guests, made sure our glasses were always full, and most importantly she anticipated what I might need even before I did! When I got back to the bridal suite that night and saw how beautifully all of my belongings had been arranged I just knew Maddie had taken care of it. On top of having the best bridal attendant, I cannot say enough about Marcie and how organized, efficient, and kind she was. The reception and after-party were amazing because of her hard work and attention to detail. Again, we didn't have to worry about a thing. The servers and staff were refined and amazing with all of our guests. People are still talking about how wonderful their servers were that evening and how they have never been to a wedding with such a kind staff.
Mallard Island itself is a dream destination. The grounds are impeccable, the marina level and ballroom are gorgeous, the bridal suite is 3000 square feet of heaven and the each guest room is more beautiful than the last. We visited several venues, even other Weddings of Distinction venues, but the gorgeous boathouse chapel, the views of the Barnegat Bay, the fabulous bridal suite, the shiny black dance floor, and Danielle and her team made Mallard stand out miles ahead of the others. We waited 15 years [since HS] for our perfect day - and at Mallard Island Yacht Club it was just that - PERFECT.I don't know how I can put into words how absolutely perfect our wedding day was at Mallard Island Yacht Club. First and foremost, Danielle of Taste Catering was definitely my fairy godmother for our "Happily Ever After". From the minute we chose Mallard Danielle was there every step of the way to answer my questions. She suggested vendors, told me when things were absolutely necessary versus when I could easily leave them out, talked me off of the ledge about minor details more times than I can count, and FLAWLESSLY handled our rehearsal and wedding day. If I emailed her, I had a response within an hour. I didn't have to worry about a thing on the day of the wedding other than marrying my best friend and spending time with our loved ones. Every decoration my husband and I made or brought with us was meticulously placed where Danielle and I had decided it should go and the things I wasn't sure about Danielle handled beautifully. Walking in and seeing our bride and groom Minnie and Mickey hats on our sweetheart table was such a small beautiful touch that ONLY someone like Danielle would pick up on.

Mallard Island Yacht Club
Lauren and I got married on November 3rd 2018 at mallard yach club and had an absolutely wonderful time. From start to finish Danielle and her staff at mallard we’re extremely professional, courteous and respectful. I can not think of another venue that I would have wanted to get married at, the ceremony went as smooth as can be, the transition into cocktail our was seamless and the reception was everything we asked for and more!! Our guests could not stop raving about the venue and all of the staff that made this night truly the best night of our lives!!Lauren and I got married on November 3rd 2018 at mallard yach club and had an absolutely wonderful time.

So perfect!
We were recently married at Mallard Island Yacht Club. The venue itself is simply beautiful, but the staff working there makes it that much better. Taste Catering is AMAZING! They go above and beyond for the bride, groom and every single guest. Our food was over the top. Every single guest raved about it and are still raving about it. The service was also unbelievable. Danielle, Madeline & Marcie made sure everything ran so smoothly and that everything was beyond perfect. My husband and myself were able to focus on having fun and interacting with all of our guests knowing that everything behind the scenes was being taken care of by the entire Taste Catering crew. Taste Catering is amazing at what they do. We would 100% redo our wedding with the same food and staff in a heartbeat and change absolutely nothing. We are so sad our special day is over but so happy with how everything turned out. PERFECT IN EVERY WAY!!!!!!We were recently married at Mallard Island Yacht Club.
