Best venue ever
From the second we walked into Bayview, we knew it was the venue for us. It was modern, spotless, right on the water, and offered so many unique features that we hadn't seen anywhere else. Even the menu completely blew us away. It was so much more creative and delicious than what other venues were offering.
From the moment we met Mike, the Director of Sales, he became our biggest supporter throughout the entire wedding planning process. I truly think the only person more excited for our wedding than we were was Mike himself! He celebrated every milestone with us, answered every question, and made us feel like our wedding was just as important to him as it was to us.
Everyone at Bayview was incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely invested in making our vision come to life. One thing that really stood out was that although Bayview doesn't typically offer tastings before booking, Mike arranged one for our family so we could feel 100% confident in our decision. That speaks volumes about how much they care about their couples.
The food deserves its own paragraph because our guests are still talking about it. Not only was everything absolutely delicious, but everyone commented on how generous the portions were. It's rare to hear wedding guests rave about both the quality and the quantity of the food, but Bayview absolutely delivered.
As the wedding approached, everything was seamless. Every time we visited, we were greeted with huge smiles and genuine excitement for our big day. Kirsten helped us finalize our menu and floor plan, and she was so patient, organized, and easy to work with throughout the process.
On the wedding day, Karla, our bridal attendant, was an absolute dream. She helped us set up the day before and was by my side all day without ever feeling intrusive. She fluffed my dress before photos, made sure I always had food and water, brought a fan to our sweetheart table when it got hot, and somehow anticipated every little thing I needed before I even had to ask. She truly allowed me to relax and soak in every moment. The entire staff paid attention to every detail, and because of them I never had to worry about a single thing.
We also chose the yacht after-party, and it ended up being one of the highlights of the entire night. During planning there was a miscommunication and it hadn't been added to our contract, but Mike found a solution, and made sure everything worked out. We were so grateful. The yacht itself was incredible—the lower level had seating and food while the upper deck kept the dance party going. It was such a unique experience, and the transition from the venue to the boat was completely seamless thanks to Tara, who coordinated everything perfectly.
Looking back, there isn't a single thing I would change. If I could do it all over again, I would choose Bayview every single time without hesitation. Because it's a newer venue, it may not have as many reviews as some others, but please don't let that stop you. We truly could not have chosen a better place to celebrate the best day of our lives. Bayview exceeded every expectation we had, and we'll be forever grateful to the incredible team that made our wedding so unforgettable.

Summer wedding
From the moment we booked our wedding at Bayview on the Water until the very end of our wedding night, the entire experience was absolutely incredible. We truly could not have asked for a better venue.
The food was outstanding! Every meal came out hot and fresh, and the steaks were cooked perfectly to each guest’s requested temperature, which is something so many people commented on. Every course was delicious, and our guests are still talking about how amazing the food was.
The staff was beyond exceptional. Every single person was kind, professional, attentive, and so accommodating throughout the entire day. They made sure everything ran smoothly and always made us feel like their top priority. Their hospitality was unmatched.
The venue itself was beautiful, spotless, and so well maintained. Every space looked elegant and welcoming, making our wedding feel truly magical. One thing that really stood out was the hospitality hour before the ceremony. It was such a thoughtful touch that gave our guests a chance to relax, enjoy refreshments, and mingle before everything began.
If you’re looking for a wedding venue that delivers incredible food, exceptional service, and a stunning atmosphere, Bayview on the Water is the perfect choice. They exceeded every expectation we had and gave us the wedding of our dreams. We are so grateful to the entire team and would recommend them to anyone without hesitation! -

Wedding - 4/17/2026
There isn't enough words to convey how beautiful the venue is and how truly incredible the staff and wedding coordinators are. We couldn't be more appreciative for how cordial and professional they were with us through EVERY step of the way. Michael, Lauren and Kirsten have been beyond accommodating and were absolutely wonderful to plan our wedding with.
Any questions or concerns we had, whether outlandish or not, they had us feel like we completely heard and were no issue at all. Their calm demeanor and quick decisiveness even in the midst of the chaos of decorating/planning is truly impeccable and admirable. They provided a great deal of assistance in making the place look great and all smiles the entire time.
Their drink/food service was bar none as well. We had multiple people with varying food allergies and such - as to which we have only heard raving compliments about the food and the tremendous service since. Our maître d and attendant were spot on and never missed a beat with food and drink orders. We also enjoyed the food and LOVED our cake from Moscato Bakery & Cafe.-

Gregg and Janet’s wedding ❤️
The day I walked into the Bayview I knew that’s where I wanted to get married. From start to finish everything was just perfect. The venue is absolutely beautiful. The rooftop was the most gorgeous spot to exchange our vows, followed by our celebration in the grand ballroom. Special, thanks to Mike Jannotte our banquet manager, for guiding us from the beginning. Our maître D, Tara, a bridal attendant, Kiara and of course the owner Mike. Thanks for making our day. Nothing short of perfect. Janet Salvaggio and Gregg Fariello. ❤️ -

The best venue
We had our wedding at this venue, and I cannot say enough good things about this place. Their space is beautiful and their food is incredible. But their underrated strong-point is how organized and accommodating they were. The weeks leading up to my wedding they were so organized. They consistently let me know what I still needed to do and helped me in every way possible to have what I wanted.
I'm still speechless about how incredible they were the day of. They coordinated absolutely everything. They made sure the groom and I were having a good time and wrapped up so much food for us - they truly went above and beyond. If you want your event to go well and to actually have fun at your event - book this place. -

10/10 would recommend this venue
The Bayview was the perfect place for us to have our wedding reception. The staff was responsive, flexible (especially in writing our customized contract), eager to help, accommodating, had great ideas, and was incredibly friendly to us and our guests. The venue itself is beautiful and laid out well for wedding ceremonies, cocktail hours, and receptions. The views from its many windows are especially fantastic. Our guests raved about how many food options there were and how delicious the food was. Our night flowed seamlessly thanks to all of the staff working together and communicating well with us and each other. We really felt like they cared about us and our wedding which made it that much more special. We would definitely have another event at this venue and we will definitely be recommending it to our friends and family looking for venues in the area. -

The most gorgeous venue, the most amazing people
Honestly, I can not wait for my wedding to be here on 10.01.22! Lauren and Donna have been nothing short of AMAZING. Communication is everything to me and they have been so easy and accommodating. This venue is brand new and STUNNING. I am 10000000% positive this will be the hottest venue in the upcoming years. I first checked it out with my Mom and we were both BLOWN away. It is timeless, modern and elegant and also SO CLEAN. Since it is so new, it offers a lot that most venues do not. They have a rooftop which we will be utilizing for our after party. The cocktail hour space is to DIE FOR. And, the reception room is HUGE, clean, NO CARPET and overlooking the water. Honestly, if I could spell out my dream wedding, Bayview on the Water would be it! Lauren is the absolute sweetest, we are always in contact and I am so excited to continue to plan the best day of my life with her by our side. After I visited with my Mom, I brought my fiancé and his parents. I got the same reaction from them, "Wow!" The place is stunning from the waterfront view, to the big, beautiful staircase in the main lobby, to the reception room. It's so worth checking out this venue. They are an amazing staff who know what they're doing. We are so excited to have our wedding here. I truly believe it will be a once in a lifetime wedding that EVERYONE will remember. The team at Bayview on the Water is great, the food is fantastic, the venue has everything a bride and groom would want! If you're looking for your dream, modern, timeless, elegant wedding, Bayview on the Water is the venue to have it! I feel so blessed to be working with such an amazing team who is so accommodating. -

Wonderful Day
I was the first wedding at the Bayview! Naturally I was very nervous about how the day would go. The management handled everything perfectly. They welcomed me and my family to come in several times to see how things were progressing at the venue. All of my concerns were heard and addressed. I worked with Donna mostly and then also Steve. They were very responsive and I always felt like I was a priority. But most importantly, my guests raved about the food, they said it was the best food they ever had a wedding. Even the vegans! The views were gorgeous and people were taking pictures all night. The room is so beautiful it really doesn’t need much decor. It’s also at the end of the Nautical Mile, so its not the middle of a bunch of partygoers. The rooftop is gorgeous and so different from most venues on Long Island. It doesn’t feel like a sterile catering hall at all. Thank you for an awesome wedding.-

Cannot wait to get married here next year!
The Bayview has been a blessing after what me and my fiancé have been through with canceling our wedding this year due to the Pandemic. Our previous venue did not want to give us any of our payments back and was super difficult. After this experience we decided to find a completely different type of venue and we are so glad we did. The Bayview is a million times better than our old venue and the service is exceptional. Our Sales manager Debbie Giasemis was warm and inviting from the very beginning. She listened to all of our ideas even the silly ones and suggested some fun ideas of her own. She made sure she understood our vision and goals and gave us the best options to achieve them. She has a vendor contact for literally anything you may need and so far all of her recommendations has been excellent. The venue itself is gorgeous, the view of the bay is stunning and they maintain the space beautifully. Debbie even gave us a special deal they are promoting with an extra 1/2 hour of open bar with our liquor package. As tough as this year has been we are so excited for 2021 and we owe a big part of that to the Bayview and Debbie! -

Amazing Venue by the Water!
We are going to have our wedding at the Bayview in mid-April 2021 and we are blown away by this magnificent venue. The venue itself is exactly what we were looking for in terms of food, atmosphere, scenery, and overall experience. . Debbie has been very helpful and her suggesting so many different ideas to make our day a very special one. This venue is my dream come true! I can't wait until April for my fairytale wedding! Gina

Fantastic Venue and team!
Last week I had the pleasure of meeting Debbie whom gave me a site visit of this spectacular venue. The banquet hall is stunning! It's a grand space with coffered ceiling, modern/chic light fixtures and large dance floor. My fiancé and I have visited several venues in Long Island and found many of them to be old with outdated fixtures, it is clear that the Bayview is newly renovated and glamorous. Another pro that made this venue standout from others we previously visited is the fact that our wedding would be the only wedding taking place for the day, unlike the many venues that host several weddings at the same time. I like the idea of exclusivity for me and my guests. The best part of the site visit was by far the breathtaking panoramic open bay view. I can imagine the amazing shots our photographer will effortlessly capture with such a outstanding backdrop. I also want to note that the sales rep Debbie was amazing. She was very personable, and genuinely wanted our needs to be met. She made great suggestions to take our wedding to the next level. She even recommended vendors we could use for services we need for our special day. We had an instant chemistry with Debbie and could tell working with her would be a pleasure. The combination of all these things made us book right on the spot! I'm so excited to have my wedding here next year and would highly recommend to any brides searching for a remarkable venue with super efficient staff. -

Perfect waterfront wedding venue
The rooftop water view is everything. The clean and modern aesthetic is exactly what we were looking for, for our wedding. Our guests had nothing but great things about the food and staff. We couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend! -
