    Exceptional!

    Our organization had a luncheon today and the service was exceptional! The food was GREAT and on time. Rose Trabert went out of her way to make sure that the luncheon was flawless and it was!

    Lighthouse Sound's reply:

    Thank you, Tiffany, for the thoughtful review. You and your organization were a delight to work. Can't wait to work with you again on March 12...Go Team :)

    Amazing Experiene

    Our wedding went perfectly! The price was very reasonable because we had a short, winter reception that was beautifully decorated with winter lights and of course a beautiful view. Every member of their team was extremely attentive and polite. Plus their coordinator Rose is the best! She is so excited to share your wedding day with you and always flexible with plenty of suggestions to help you make your vision become a reality.

    Lighthouse Sound's reply:

    Katlynne and Kenny, I'm so thankful that you trusted me during this process. Everything turned out beautifully and the SNOW was a precious gift I now know was sent from above! Wishing you much love and light now and forever. HUGS from the Lighthouse Sound Team!

    Company Christmas Party

    Lighthouse Sound was absolutely phenomenal! It was easy to get in touch with their event planner. Communication and planning the evening was effortless. The Christmas dinner was delicious and service was attentive and great. We will be going back next year and we recommend having any event there!

    Spectacular Venue!

    To start, the view of the bay and Ocean City is unmatched! Gorgeous place to have an event! It will take your breathe away! Then you turn to the event coordinator, Rose and her staff...they are there every step of the way to help you plan exactly what you want and see you through to the end. Everyone is so helpful, friendly and very professional. Put Lighthouse Sound on your list to visit, you won't be disappointed!
    Thank you so much, Rose!

    The best!

    I am so very grateful to Lighthouse Sound for giving this bride THE BEST wedding she could’ve ever experienced. I am on the other side and I can honestly say I wouldn’t change one thing about our day. Rose (event coordinator at Lighthouse) was a delight to work with. She helped the day run smoothly and honestly was a lot of fun to be around! The views, the food, the drinks, the staff, the intentionality to every detail - it was all perfect! We knew from the moment we toured this venue it was our spot and so it was the only place we toured. LOL. You won’t regret having your special day at Lighthouse.

    Rose was a true pleasure to work with and the staff was very accommodating for my niece’s baby shower.

    The food was delish and views amazing!

    Our Day Was Perfect

    Everything for our wedding from planning the day to execution went perfectly. LHS is a beautiful venue that overlooks the bay. They were able to work with our requests and made sure it was everything that we wanted. All of our friends and family raved about the views and how good the food was. People are still talking about how awesome the food was! Rose who helped coordinate the day was an absolute angel. She deserves an olympic medal for all the running around she did to make sure everything went smoothly. Everyone at LHS made sure to take care of us and our friends and family. I would 1000% recommend LHS for your wedding.

    Unforgettable Wedding!

    I couldn't recommend LightHouse Sound more for your wedding! From the first moment we saw the venue through our wedding the customer service at LightHouse was amazing! We had a transition from one coordinator to another from the time we booked to the wedding and they did not miss a step! Rose and Shellie were incredible our entire wedding weekend making sure we had everything we needed. They made sure every detail was exactly how we wanted. If you are looking for a venue with excellent customer service with amazing food, LightHouse is the perfect choice!

    The Perfect Venue

    My husband and I were married at Lighthouse Sound on September 8th. To say that our day was perfect would be an understatement. Here is our review…

    The Space: We continue to have our guests tell us that this was the most beautiful wedding venue they have ever seen even months after our wedding. Our ceremony took place in the gazebo, cocktail hour on the patio, and reception in the tent (rented from Coastal Tented Events). All with incredible water views, cooling breezes, and great light. We were blessed with amazing weather, but also loved the indoor backup plan.

    The Staff: During the planning process, we worked with incredible coordinators. Shellie and Rose were THE BEST to work with. Rose joined the team later in our planning process and we were lucky enough to have her and Shellie both as our coordinators as our wedding was Rose’s first. They were willing and excited to answer my one million questions the months leading up to the wedding. Shellie communicated with our other vendors and gave recommendations every step of the way. Their day-of coordination was SPOT ON. They made sure every decoration, floral arrangement, sign, etc. was perfect and that the entire schedule of the day ran smoothly. The wonderful bartenders and servers provided outstanding service for my husband and I and all of our guests. The drinks were great and the food was incredible. Which brings me to the food…

    The Food: We loved how many options were available when selecting our menu… dinner tiers, plated or buffet style, hors d’oeuvres, and desserts. Having the catering done in house was so helpful and made our planning process easier.

    The Golf: My husband loves to golf! He enjoyed playing the course on the morning of our wedding (he got one foursome for free). The pro shop was happy to help with scheduling tee times for his groomsmen and our other family members that played as well. He said this is one of his favorite courses he has ever played!

    We cannot recommend Lighthouse Sound more. We had the most incredible wedding and credit so much of that to the wonderful people and experience Lighthouse Sound. We can’t wait to come back for more meals and golf next time we are in town.

    Gorgeous!

    Gals, this venue is breathtaking!!! The food, INCREDIBLE! The service, EVEN BETTER!!! The price, the BEST!! Cannot say enough good things about this venue and Katie who was our venue Coordinator. She’s an absolute God send and is just such a pleasure to work with. She made the entire process so simple and easy and cared so genuinely about us and our day. The tables were set immaculately. I could not have picked a better venue!!

    AMAZING venue and team!!

    The entire wedding process with Lighthouse Sound was the most amazing experience we could have imagined. Katie, the event coordinator at the venue was absolutely incredible. She made sure we had everything we needed from the very first time we stepped foot in the building until the very last minute of the wedding. The entire staff was extremely friendly and wonderful on our big day. The food was tremendous. From the hours d'ourves, to the salad, and the intermezzo sorbet, all the way through the main course. We have never been to a wedding where they asked each guest how they liked their steak cooked. We cannot believe how much attention to detail that Katie and her team used to make sure our day was cemented as the best day of our lives. Usually there is always one or two things that folks regret about their wedding day, but we honestly could not say anything bad about our special day and it had all to do with how great Katie and her team were.

    Lighthouse Sound's reply:

    We are BLLLUUSHING! Thank you for the many wonderful things said about your special day at Lighthouse Sound. We are so happy you included some photos, so we could relive some of those fantastic moments with you again ❤️.
    Cheers to a beautiful couple!!
    All our best,
    Katie and the LHS crew

    Incredible venue!

    I can't say enough good things about Lighthouse Sound! For starters, it's absolutely gorgeous, inside and out. Katie, the venue's wedding coordinator, is incredibly responsive, super friendly, and so helpful! The food is also amazing -- our guests have not stopped talking about the food we had (especially their prime rib), and my wife is still going on about the egg roll appetizers! Lighthouse Sound's bridal suite is spacious and well-lit, perfect for getting ready. Thank you, Lighthouse Sound staff, for making our day incredible! And an extra special thank you to Katie!

    Lighthouse Sound's reply:

    You both were an absolute pleasure to work with and everyone here at Lighthouse Sound was honored to be part of your special day. Thank you for taking time to let other newly engaged couples know of your experience with us!

    Wonderful Tour!

    My fiance and I went to go check out Lighthouse Sound as a potential venue. Lighthouse would be a beautiful venue and has some more affordable wedding packages if you are a bride on a budget. When my fiance and I went on a tour, everyone was extremely nice and all of our questions were answered. I would have totally picked Lighthouse Sound as a choice if my fiance and I didn't decide on a destination wedding instead! A note for brides with a smaller guest count: check this place out! I had a guest count of 20-40 people and they were more than willing to work with me!

    I can't say enough nice things about The Restaurant at Lighthouse Sound. My daughter just had her wedding there. Great "one-stop shopping": the contract included the site, set-up, the ceremony, the food, the open bar, and Lauren, our amazing wedding planner. The manager, Shellie, was sharp, too. The food was delicious. The waiters were extremely courteous and responsive. And the scenery was really, really something -- your photographer will have a lot to work with. I wish I could give 'em six stars. Superior job! Best wishes, Scott.

    Gorgeous venue, booked immediately after tour

    Felt compelled to write this review because I saw another review that I wanted to counteract.

    We toured the venue with Laura over Labor Day weekend and knew RIGHT AWAY this was our venue. The inside is country club chic and the outside is absolutely magnificent. The views are gorgeous and the grounds are so well kept. Laura has been an absolute dream to work with, and even booked us a dinner reservation the night before our tour so we could try the food. The only smells we encountered were the food, the fresh cut grass, and the saltwater air.

    We're booked for next year and cannot WAIT to have the best day of our lives with our friends and family at Lighthouse Sound!

    Incredible venue with fantastic service!!

    We had our wedding here this past weekend...absolutely perfect!! The venue is incredible, amazing views of ocean city and beautiful natural landscaping. And a bridal suite!! The staff was excellent and the food was DELICIOUS - especially the bacon wrapped scallops and the steak!! Lauren was our wedding coordinator.

    Fabulous all around

    We had our wedding and reception at Lighthouse Sound Restaurant and the entire experience was wonderful. Lauren was great to work with, responded quickly, made menu accommodations and changes and answered all of our questions. The day of the event, things went beautifully. The staff and bartenders were amazing and the food was absolutely delicious. We heard nothing but compliments from our guests and would highly recommend Lighthouse Sound. We can't wait to go back to celebrate our anniversaries.

    Amazing! Knowledgeable, friendly, professional, helpful!

    Just had our wedding at Lighthouse Sound 1 week ago and it was amazing and beautiful and flawless! We went to so many venues before we found Lighthouse Sound, and once we saw it and Lauren told us what they had to offer ....we were hooked! There’s not one bad view in the whole venue! The entire staff from the servers, to bartenders, to hosts, to the wonderful coordinator Lauren Thorp were professional, knowledgeable, friendly, polite and overall just great people at every encounter. Oh and the food! Delish! I had guests texting me the next day about how good it was!!! I can’t go on enough about this staff and how highly I recommend this venue! I wish I had the professional pics to post already bc they would show the views and venue off so much better, but was able to get a few from friends and family! :)

    Cannot say enough good things!!

    My wedding day would not have gone nearly as smoothly as it did if it had not been for Lauren and her team. Not only is the venue absolutely gorgeous, the food amazing (my guests were all saying it’s the best wedding food they’ve had), but the staff was incredibly professional and accommodating! Lauren helped so much in the planning from creating a timeline, recommending food selections, and setup of the room. She also served as a same day coordinator helping the bridal party know when to walk, keeping the event on schedule etc. I truly cannot say enough good things about her and her team and would book them again in a heartbeat if we had the chance to do it all over again (if only!)

    All around amazing!

    We got married at the Lighthouse Sound on 9/21/19. Lauren and the staff were phenomenal. Lauren was beyond helpful throughout the whole planning process. Whenever I had a question or concern or needed to change something, she was prompt with a response and always accommodating. She was so calm, cool and collected during the planning process and the day of, it put me at ease. The venue is beautiful, the food is always delicious and everyone had a great time! I can't put into words how happy I am to have had Lauren's help, along with the rest of the staff, and I'm so happy we chose the Lighthouse Sound for our special day!

    The perfect wedding venue DOES exist

    The lighthouse sound made my wedding day absolutely perfect! Every little detail was thought of and handled promptly. On my big day I did not have to worry about a single thing. First of all there’s always a dilemma about whether or not to hire a wedding planner. With the lighthouse sound comes a lovely little angel named Lauren Thorp. She is AMAZING. Any question that I or my mom had during the process could be emailed directly to her and we would receive quick responses. She is a problem solver that aims to please. She was hugely accommodating letting us store decorations in her office the week of, decorate the dining room the day before, giving us a thourough information on the food and letting us change our minds on things without complaint. Just a few examples. Now I’m sure having our wedding in the off season (December) helped but we always seemed to be high priority for Lauren and the whole lighthouse sound staff. The venue accommodates up to 120 people our own wedding was about 80. Being that it was December the ceremony took place in the main dining room and as the guests enjoyed cocktail hour in the separate bar the room was flipped for the reception to take place. The whole process was smooth and perfect. The space is beautiful and the grounds offer the most beautiful backdrop for photos. Also the restaurant has lots of lovely Christmas decorations and being that we had a Christmas wedding, that was a huge plus! Looking back on my wedding day I have zero regrets choosing the lighthouse sound.

    Extraordinary

    I can’t be happier about my decision of having the reception at lighthouse sound! My wedding planner Lauren Thorp is the best!! She is very professional and responsible! She made my wedding reception like a dream to me! I am very lucky!

    October 20th 2018 Wylde-Snyder Wedding

    Lighthouse Sound is a beautiful place to have a wedding. I highly recommend having your wedding here. When my husband and I got engaged we contacting Lauren Thorp the event Coordinator right away because we knew they book up fast and we couldn't see ourselves getting married anywhere else in the area. Lauren Thorp is absolutely amazing. She is easy to work with. She works extremely hard to make your day special. She is very organized and caring. In fact, she goes above and beyond what her job title is. If I had a concern, problem or question she got back to me right away.
    When I walked into my reception everything was PERFECT!!! I have to give all the credit to Shellie, Lauren, and the staff at Lighthouse. They made my wedding the absolute best day of my Life! I was so very happy with everything. My parents who actually paid for the entire wedding were even more impressed with everything. ( My parents have been to a lot of weddings, ones that cost 300,00 dollars and they said this venue, staff, food and everything about lighthouse sound was better then any of those weddings they had been too)
    The food is absolutely delicious. We decided to go with a buffet with all the eating allergies our guests had. Everyone at our wedding couldn't stop raving about the food.
    My guest enjoyed my wedding very much. They must have told my parents a hundred times that this was by far the best wedding they have ever been too. These amazing reviews could not have happened without the Staff who made this day amazing. The staff at lighthouse sound are so accommodating, friendly, and fun. I love how they were always on top of everything. Food came out promptly, clearing of the plates was on point and their mannerism were perfect. Overall, my husband and I would highly recommend Lighthouse Sound. Everything was perfect. Nothing went wrong at all!!
