    Amazing Ceremony and Reception!!

    Jenny was absolutely amazing during this process!! We fell in love with the idea of getting married on the pier because we love the ocean but didn't want to get married on the beach with the sand. This venue was PERFECT! We could see the ocean the entire time at our reception and the views were breath taking! Everyone kept commenting on how gorgeous it was. Would 1000% recommend!

    It was awesome to have you all here! We love hearing that you enjoyed it so much. Thanks for saying so and CONGRATS to you and Kevin!

    Amazing venue!

    We had our wedding at Jennette’s and could not have asked for a better venue. The level of communication we had with Jenny was top notch, she was extremely responsive and easy to work with. We had the wedding of our dreams thanks to Jennette's and their wonderful team. I highly recommend having your wedding here, you won’t be disappointed!

    Jennette's Pier's reply:

    Carly,
    It was wonderful to have you all here! Thanks for letting us know that your experience was a good one. We hope to see you back at Jennette's Pier sometime!
    Best to you guys!...Cheers!
    Jenny

    We couldn't have picked a better place to get married! We loved the pier and so did our guests. The view was spectacular and the room we had our reception in was perfection.

    The Most Beautiful Venue

    If you want a true beach wedding, look no further. You have the option to get married on the beach next to the pier, or on the pier itself. We chose the beach and it was the most beautiful experience. The reception hall was complimented by every guest because of the breathtaking views. They provide you with tables and chairs and Jenny is very responsive during the planning process. This is the prettiest beach venue and I am so happy with my choice. It was the most perfect day.

    Jennette's Pier's reply:

    We loved having you! So glad to hear that we met your, and your guests expectations...Congratulations!!

    Professionalism was top notch

    The staff were all very responsive and professional. Going in to this, I was concerned about random people showing up in pictures and being in the way, this ended up not being an issue at all. The public were all respectful as well. The pier worked perfectly with my other vendors and catered to their needs without ever worrying me over those details. Absolutely recommend this place as a location for wedding ceremonies.

    Beautiful and Unique Venue

    We used Jennette's Pier for both our ceremony and reception, and it turned out just beautifully! We booked the venue without me, the bride, having seen it and I was very concerned about two things: the room seeming too large for our wedding of 75-100 and the fish on the walls of the banquet hall! Turns out, it is the perfect size for a wedding of 100, and the string light decorations completely distracted from the fish. It also simplified some of the wedding administration headaches. For example, you are allowed to leave your cars in the parking lot there overnight. Also, there is a full kitchen upstairs with the banquet hall- our caterer's definitely appreciated that. The wrap around porch was perfect for cocktail hour, and we also had a cigar bar outside during the reception. While no hard alcohol is allowed, we loved being able to bring in our own drinks, and were able to get creative! We had a full mimosa bar during cocktail hour, and there are two industrial fridges in the kitchen set aside for you to put your drinks in the day of. And trust me, people were plenty drunk with the wine, beer, and prosecco open bar! The last thing about Jennette's that was really special for us is the fact that we were able move their grand piano into the banquet hall, and were able to use it during the reception and dancing (they did charge us a couple hundred dollars for tuning it). Jennette's Pier really was the perfect venue, and they were so easy to work with too! Could not recommend it more!
    PS- the photos turned out phenomenal! A lot of that was due to our photographer- Neil Thurston- but it was just such a gorgeous place to work with!

    Jennette's Pier's reply:

    First, thank you both for your service to our country! We love how you embraced every moment and detail of the wedding. It was a beautiful evening for a wonderful couple! Congratulations again, and best wishes!

    Gorgeous venue!

    The pier was a beautiful choice for our wedding and Michele (the facility coordinator) couldn’t have been anymore kind and helpful. She is great at communicating and quick to reply to any emails which made wedding planning much easier.
    The pier ceremony location is absolutely beautiful (the beach would be too) and the reception room upstairs has great views over looking the ocean. We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding day. The staff did everything they could do make it an amazing day for us. Thank you Jennette’s Pier!

    Jennette's Pier's reply:

    Aren't you so very sweet to review us on both The Knot and WeddingWire! That was so very kind of you. We are so glad you all had a great wedding day! Take care and come back to visit!!! Happy Holidays!

    Perfect venue

    We had our wedding just two weeks ago & it couldn’t have been more perfect! The pier is not only beautiful-it’s accommodating & everyone there couldn’t have been more pleasant to work with! Can’t recommend them enough!

    Jennette's Pier's reply:

    Your review is just as sweet as you lovely lady! We appreciate every kind word. You were so wonderful! Congratulations to you both, and please come back and visit!

    Breathtaking views!

    The most beautiful venue room and view! Michele was so helpful every step of the way. She was always there to provide insight and answer my questions. Our guests fell in love with the vaulted ceilings and view of the beach and ocean. You cant beat that view!

    Jennette's Pier's reply:

    You are beautiful Gabrielle! Thank you so much for the nice review. It was such a gift to be able to help you with your very special wedding day! Congratulations again, and best wishes!

    Amazing!!!

    I worked with mostly with Michele but day of I worked with Tammy and they both were wonderful!!! They both answered questions and were always around when something was needed. Michele was quick to reply to emails and answered all the millions of questions I had since I was planning my wedding for 6hours away. She was always pleasant and even gave a list of vendors in the area for us to look into.
    the day of my wedding, Tammy was there to guide things along and keep an eye on everything. She was extremely helpful and even allowed us to have a different entry than the double doors from the inside of the building to the pier. All of the other staff was also very pleasant and accommodating. I would recommend this venue to everyone! Not only is it beautiful but they are wonderful people to work with!

    Jennette's Pier's reply:

    Sweet, thoughtful, kind and lovely - all words that describe you Nicole! Thank you for such a wonderful review. It was truly such a pleasure to help you with your wedding day. It was truly all about family, and we are thankful to have been part of that special memory. Congratulations to you both and best wishes!!!

    Most amazing venue

    Our wedding June 16, 2019 was nothing short of a dream come true! Michele Bunce was the most amazing event coordinator. She truly went above and beyond giving me recommendations and answering any questions I had; including the last minute before the big day jitters. Everyone at the pier was so helpful, kind, and a complete joy to work with. Matt and I thank you all from the bottom of our hearts!

    Jennette's Pier's reply:

    You were amazing!! Thank you so much for the lovely review. We are so happy you had a dreamy wedding. We are so very thankful to be a part of such a special memory and part of your life. Best wishes, and please come back and visit us!

    Simply wonderful!

    Words can’t even express how much we love Jennette’s Pier! Michele was absolutely amazing the whole time. She was very kind, sweet and always easy to contact with any questions we had. Jennette’s pier is special because there are so many beautiful spots to have your ceremony. We originally planned for our ceremony to be out on the beautiful pier. Mother Nature though had another plan in mind. So everyone worked hard and put together a beautiful ceremony for us inside with the stunning view of the ocean behind us. This venue is so beautiful and I hands down recommend you marry your best friend here!
    P.S.- wedding pictures on or under the pier are to die for!

    Jennette's Pier's reply:

    Oh Melinda, thank you so much! You were so wonderful to work with, and I always enjoyed talking to you. I so love and appreciate the photos you attached. My favorite part of the review is recommending you marry your best friend here, LOVE it! We are so thankful for you sharing your very special day with your best friend here with us at Jennette's Pier. Congratulations!

    Couldn't ask for a better beach venue!

    I cannot imagine a more beautiful and perfect venue for our wedding in the Outer Banks. The view is amazing and it's unlike any other wedding venue, especially in the United States. It's also very reasonably priced for all the accommodations. The downstairs has little fish exhibits that entertain the children. The pier gives you such a romantic sweeping view of the ocean that is an unreal backdrop for your ceremony. And the ballroom upstairs has plenty of space for your reception - with the unique benefit of a wrap around porch for guests to still enjoy the outdoor ocean air. Our guests said that they had the most amazing time - as far as location, you can't get much better than this! On top of all this, Michele Bunce is an absolute gem of a person and so incredibly helpful. We pestered her with questions over a year before our wedding and she was always there to help us out and make recommendations. She made the day go so smoothly and we are so grateful for her.

    Amazing venue with amazing views

    Bye far the most amazing place to get married, with working with the awesome workers at jennette’s to having the best views and the pier it’s just breath taking. Jennette’s pier will always have a special place in our hearts now and it’s a must go to every time we vacation to the outer banks. Michele we worked with for booking jennette’s and when I tell you she was the best ever we mean it! People down south just treat you like family and every time I called to make payments Michele and I would always talk like we’ve known eachother for awhile. So we highly Recommend jennette’s pier for your event. We got married there May 18th 2019 and we had perfect weather to top it all off and also had about 120 people for a destination wedding considering we are from New Jersey and we all fit comfortable in the banquet room. Love the outer banks love jennette’s pier and loved out people we worked with to plan our whole wedding!

    Perfect Venue for a beach wedding!

    Jennette's Pier was the PERFECT place for our wedding! We got married on the pier overlooking the ocean, and it was so beautiful. The fact that the indoor banquet area is right above the pier made is easy for guests to transition to cocktail hour, and the space is perfect for any theme! We could not be more thankful for the awesome staff that helped our day run so smoothly! I HIGHLY recommend Jennette's Pier for your wedding venue!

    Jennette's Pier's reply:

    What a beautiful wedding and bride! We absolutely loved the wreath suspended from the ceiling surrounded by the lighting. It was so warm and lovely. We loved your special guest too as we love all our furry loved ones! Thank you for sharing your very special wedding day with us!

    Beautiful Venue

    We had our wedding here in fall 2018. All of our guests gave so many compliments about the beautiful views, and stunning backdrop for our reception. We had our ceremony on the pier, and although it was very windy during the ceremony and quite chilly, our guests still appreciated the beautiful sky and ocean backdrop.

    As soon as we saw the venue for the first time, we absolutely fell in love. So happy we chose Jennette's Pier!

    Beautiful venue!

    If you are looking for the perfect oceanfront venue, Jennette's Pier is one of the best wedding venues on the OBX! Everyone that I worked with at Jennette's was very responsive, friendly, and easy to work with. The pier hall is such a nice, large space, with amazing views. You can't beat it! I would recommend this venue to anyone who wants a beach wedding!

    Jennette's Pier's reply:

    Thank you Cori! Everyone was so very nice and kind. We loved loved loved the flowers and décor! Everything looked beautiful, including your awesome dress. Everyone kept us laughing as they awaited for the dentist kiki challenge! Thank you for the review, and we do hope you come back and visit!

    Jennett’s Pier is a Great Venue to hold a wedding! The views are amazing, the event room is awesome, and Michele Bunce is the icing on the cake. Michele and her staff worked with us and our vendors throughout the planning, set up, and day of the wedding to ensure everything went smoothly. A lot of wonderful life time memories were made by all in attendance thanks to Michele and Jennett’s Pier.

    Jennette's Pier's reply:

    You are the sweetest dad ever! We were all saying how thoughtful it was of you to not only thank each vendor but thank them by name. It was truly a pleasure to meet you and chat with you each and every time. You all were wonderful! Thank you so much!
