    Perfection!

    This was the perfect setting for our daughter's wedding! Kimberely provided us with exceptional service from the start - clear communication, guiding us through each of the details, and executing a perfect wedding ceremony and reception! Professional, caring, and ever so helpful, we can't thank Kimberley enough for making this a memorable and amazing day!

    Our perfect Wedding!

    I cannot say enough about how amazing my wedding was and mostly because of Kim! Once we talked to her we realized not only was the venue perfect but that she would keep our wedding on track and smooth. We were not wrong she took care of everything at the event making sure everything was on time and all our other vendors were on the same page. Connected us to Vynwood which was also amazing! As the bride I was so worried about getting out and putting all our decorations and candles in cars. When the wedding was over Kim had the staff putting everything in the boxes we brought without me even realizing! Everything was set on a table in the hallway all we had to do was clean out the bridal suite and back a car up it was absolutely perfect and easy! We are so happy with the staff and the venue everything was amazing they made our wedding perfect.

    Come for the Views, Stay for the Service

    We picked the Elks based off of the location - the views alone sell the venue.
    But what we got was so much more. Kimberley is referred to as Kimberley the Great in our family now, as she thought of literally everything and any request we had she was sure to make sure it was taken care of.
    During the wedding, my husband spilled coffee and champagne - a terrible combo to get on a white dress, but Kimberley fixed it as if it never happened. She made sure all of my needs were met and all of my dreams were fulfilled. My day felt truly perfect, and Kimberly is a huge credit to that dream come true.

    The perfect day!

    We had our wedding on 10/15/2022, From the first tour of the venue we knew this was the place. Kimberley was so easy to work with and so quick to respond to any question we had. She was so personable and professional. She was always there to make me feel better about anything during the planning process. She knows what shes doing and is AMAZING at her job. She truly made my dreams come true on my wedding day. She was there from the arrival to the bridal suite to the end of the night loading up the cars. Anytime I needed her she was attentive and helped with every bit of the process. I can't thank her enough. The Elks is the most beautiful place for a wedding. I would highly recommend her and the Elks for your wedding day!

    Spectacular Day

    I would like to say what a pleasure it was to work with Kimberly and Kelley. They both offered help, support, and calmness throughout the process and on Olivia’s and my special day! Anyone looking to plan something special should reach out to them!

    Incredible!

    I could not have imagined my wedding day being anywhere else! You cannot beat the view and especially for the price it’s unbelievable! Everyone was great to work with and having David for the day of my wedding was more than I could have hoped for. They worked with me on my special vision that I wanted and it came out INCREDIBLE! Everyone absolutely loved the venue as well. Thank you so much for giving us the wedding of our dreams!

    Briana,
    Thank you for the beautiful review. I received pictures from David and everything looked amazing. We are so happy we exceeded your expectations and that you had an amazing day!! We hope to work with you again in the near future.

    Best Wedding Venue

    We choose this as our wedding venue back in 2020 for our wedding in Sept of 2022. We started working with Kimberly in 2021 once the other coordinator left the venue. Kimberly was absolutely amazing. She knows exactly what she is doing and how to make a wedding go off without any issues. She is 100% there for the bride and groom and made sure we were always happy. I was nervous about a lot on my wedding day but Kimberly was always there to make me feel better.
    The venue is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. It is located directly across from the ocean and has the best view. I would recommend this venue to everyone. It was affordable and absolutely made our wedding the best it could have been.

    The Atlantic Ocean Room at The Elks Bass Rocks's reply:

    Gabby!!!!! You are amazing. Thank you so much for the wonderful review. You and Alex were so wonderful and soooo fun to work with. I hope you have an amazing life together. Thank you again and I wish you all the best.

    Incredible

    I cannot give this venue enough praise, more specifically our coordinator at the Elks, Kimberly. From the first meeting with her through our wedding day, she listened to our ideas and vision, was professional and receptive. She took my vision and EXCEEDED all of my expectations. I was in awe when I saw the room and how she was able to create exactly what I had hoped for in my mind. Kim made me feel like my wedding was the only one of the year, when I know that they had many all weekend. The view for our ceremony and reception was unmatched and the convenience of having a beautiful hotel right next door was perfect. I never even considered another venue following our first visit and I am so beyond happy with our choice. I cannot recommend them enough!

    Thank you so much for the glowing review. You and Luke were amazing to work with and I was honored to be a part of your wedding day. I do hope our paths cross again soon. Please send me a photo!! Stay in touch, love you!!

    Perfect Venue for a Oceanside Wedding!

    We held our wedding this weekend at the Elks at Bass Rocks in Gloucester, MA. It was a perfect venue for a wedding! This is not your typical Elks. It is rated number one in the country in terms of beauty. There were gorgeous views from the Atlantic Ocean Room and our ceremony was held on the front lawn with the open ocean as the backdrop. I can’t say enough about the Director of Events and Wedding Coordinator at the Elks, Kimberly Banks and Kelly Smith. They made sure every detail was perfect and that everyone was in the right spot at the right time. I thought we would be setting up our own signage and other items in the hall. They took care of all of it so I could just enjoy the day. The Elks has two really nice hotels next door to the venue and there are plenty of other places to stay in the area, both hotels and Airbnbs. Our guests from out of town enjoyed spending time in Gloucester and Rockport and all commented on the beauty of the area. A nice feature of the Elks was the bridal suite, which we had access to from 9am that day for hair and make up. It was the perfect room for my bridesmaids and I to get ready in, equipped with a small refrigerator and private bathroom. All in all, I couldn’t have asked for a better venue or day.

    I have to also mention the vendors I used, all of which were phenomenal. Vinwood Catering out of Ipswich, MA provided food. I was told it was the best wedding food people had ever had. I used Audrey’s Flower Shop in Gloucester for our flowers and they were gorgeous and reasonably priced. Our DJ and Photography team, Curtis Knight Entertainment did an amazing job serving as both our DJ, MC and photographer. He had a slideshow running in real time as photos were captured from the day. Topsfield Bake Shop provided our cutting cake and cupcake tree and both were great.

    All in all it was the perfect day - better than I ever could have imagined! :)

    Robin:
    What an amazing review, and thank you for mentioning the vendors that worked so well for you. We were honored to assist you in the planning of your wedding day. We love what we do and I am so happy you enjoyed the wedding day getting ready in the bridal suite. We certainly hope to celebrate another wonderful event with you. Please stay in touch and do share some photos with us!!

    Director of events

    Kimberley Banks is incredible! We decided to plan our wedding 6 months ago and she made it seamless for us. She is energetic, detail oriented, and didn't miss a beat. My guests are still talking about what an incredible job she did. The wedding was beautiful. She worked well with the vendors and I didn't have to remember any last minute details because she remembered all of them. Thank you Kim for making our dream come true. Love, Mr. & Mrs. McCormick ❤️

    Amy, you and Jerry, and your entire wedding party were so FUN!! Loved working with you and Michelle and I am going to miss you so much. Thank you for the beautiful review. Please stay in touch.

    Beautiful Wedding and Amazing experience!

    My husband and I got married at The Atlantic Ocean Room early September 2022. From the start we had such a great experience. Everything is outlined clearly and they are so responsive to any questions that came up. Kimberly, the events director was so nice and professional and knew what she was doing and was able to help with all the logistics that go along with a wedding! The day of coordinator Patty was also nice and easy to work with and everything went so perfectly !! The venue is absolutely stunning and all of the guests were wowed at the views! 10/10 recommend!

    Wedding review for my daughter

    Perfect site for a beach themed wedding. My daughter was married there and it rained so we moved it inside for the ceremony and it was just perfect. Staff worked with everything I needed and no problems. Their vendor options were wonderful.

    The Atlantic Ocean Room at The Elks Bass Rocks's reply:

    Janet, thank you for the kind review. You and Liz were wonderful to work with and we had a great day with you!! Inside ceremonies are exceptional as well. We hope to see you again soon.

    Flawlessly beautiful venue and incredible coordinator for our August 2022 wedding!!

    My husband and I got married at the Elks on August 14th, 2022 and we could not have had a more wonderful day and overall experience; we feel so blessed and are still deliriously happy reliving the day a month later. The Elks was the first venue we looked at back in September of 2021, and we immediately halted our search after seeing the gorgeous ocean view just steps away and meeting our dear and lovely Kimberley! We just adored her, and working with her, from that first day to our wedding day, and we will still keep in touch and count her as someone so special in our lives.

    We had about 120 guests from near and far and everyone had such a blast dancing the night away by the gorgeous ocean. The ceremony spot is just so lovely right on the water, and guests (and we!!) really appreciated it. Taking wedding pictures afterwards on the rocks overlooking the ocean is something we'll truly remember always. Once inside for the reception, the beautiful ocean is still visible in the background. Every single thing at the reception looked as I had envisioned it for years and years; it all looked so lovely. We know that everyone says it, but we just had such a genuinely FUN, joyous, incandescently beautiful late summer wedding day and we will look back on it with all of our love for the rest of our crazy lives together.

    We cannot thank Kimberley and everyone who was a part of the "Lunnen Wedding Day Dream Team" enough, from the bottom of our grateful and elated hearts. Book your wedding here! Look no further! Cheers and God bless!

    Molli:
    You and Kevin will always hold a special place in my heart. I cried reading your thank you card!! We certainly had a beautiful day and you looked outstanding. Lemons and the Poppy flower will forever bring a smile to my face. Thank you for your heartfelt review. XO

    Beautiful facility, beautiful views all-around wonderful

    We were married there 7/23/2022. The facility is beautiful so needs no embellishments. Stunning views for photos. Kimberly Banks the coordinator is really where you get your value. She made every step easy, knew all the small details that were needed. Was professional, helpful and great to deal with. I'd highly recommend both the Elks at Bass Rocks and Kimberly Banks to anyone who want a beautiful facility with a knowledgeable manager.

    Absolutely Amazing!

    Our wedding at the elks was fabulous! Kimberley was a HUGE help and took care of virtually everything for us! The venue is beautiful, our pictures were stunning. It was great to have the ceremony and reception all in one place. I honestly can not say enough positive remarks about this place; perfect for a wedding!

    Book this venue!

    We picked this venue because of the beautiful location and space. You can’t beat the ocean view! And you can’t beat the price! Kimberly, the event coordinator, was SPECTACULAR! She is a pro in the wedding industry! She spoke about all the little details and had so many awesome suggestions. During one of our visits with Kimberly, she made us a detailed floor plan and wedding timeline that was so awesome to have! It was so easy and convenient to forward it to all of our other vendors so everyone was on the same page. Aside from her attention to detail, Kimberly made me feel SO COMFORTABLE! She was like a wedding mama you need when you’re feeling nervous! She made sure I was feeling good and comfortable at all times. She helped me with so much and I’m so thankful I had her by my side that day.

    Vinwood Catering is from one of their preselected lists of caterers to chose from. We absolutely loved working with Gary and his team. Everyone LOVED the food!

    We don't have our professional photos yet, but I attached some cell phone pictures for now!

    Beautiful venue awesome staff

    We had to rebook our wedding due to covid and we had an old coordinator I believe her name was Emily then we were introduced to Kimberly and man was she a dream to work with. She was very responsive to emails calls and or texts she knew every answer to our questions. She made our day a dream come true. Kimberly definitely deserves a raise! The location is perfect and the view wow is all I got say the view is stunning!

    The Atlantic Ocean Room at The Elks Bass Rocks's reply:

    Thank you, Belinda. You were a dream to work with as well. WE had some great laughs and memories to last a lifetime. I wish you and Pat a very long and happy marriage and can't wait to work with both of you again.

    Thank you!

    It all started because my now husband and I didn't want a big deal kind of wedding. We got engaged in December of 2019 and looked into low-key venues on a budget for 2021. We came across The Elks at Bass Rocks and booked it as soon as we saw it. Even though it was February and pouring rain, we just knew it was perfect. Then, of course, the world ended for a little bit, and we didn't really worry too much about wedding planning until I realized, OMG I should worry about wedding planning. That's when I met Kim. She responded to my many emails almost immediately and put me at ease while simultaneously letting me know what I had to get done, when, and how.  
    When we visited the Elks again, just before our wedding, it was another gloomy day but the room and the view was still absolutely gorgeous. We met Kim and got right down to business. She made us feel right at home, answered any and all of our questions and made sure we had dotted every I and crossed every t. I am an incredibly anxious person, never mind planning a wedding and after our very first meeting I just knew I was in good hands for one of the biggest days of our lives. 
    BOY did she NOT disappoint. Kim was by my side either literally, or via phone nearly all weekend. No matter how silly it seemed, or how many times I asked her if I was a crazy bride, she had the perfect answers to questions I didn't even know I had yet. Throughout the entire wedding process she told me where to be and when and again, as someone who suffers from severe anxiety, I cannot explain how helpful this was and how much it meant to me. 
    All the while, Kim was actually putting out fires for me left and right that I had NO IDEA about until after the wedding. She absolutely went above and beyond and for this we are so thankful.
    We had the BEST wedding weekend ever. The weather was beautiful. The venue is so GORGEOUS my guests didn't even notice we didn't have flowers (we are both allergic). One of my guests shared with me that he thought since we were getting married at an Elks it would be like a big old room in a basement. He was floored at just how gorgeous the Elks at Bass Rocks is, and for the price? I'd never go anywhere else. Well, maybe if Kim went somewhere else... aha! Seriously, the BEST! Thank you, thank you thank you! 

    The Atlantic Ocean Room at The Elks Bass Rocks's reply:

    Elyse:
    Thank you so much for the kind words. My job is the best because of people like you who are appreciative, kind, and understanding. Some people come and go in our lives and you will forever have a place in my heart. It was an absolute pleasure working with you and your Blaine. I can't wait to help you plan another event. I wish you both of lifetime of joy and happiness. Thank you again.

    Gloucester’s hidden Gem

    We toured this venue back in September 2019 for our wedding we planned to have in 11.07.20…the venue is beautiful, right on the ocean! We paid our deposit that week and I got to planning the wedding we always wanted! Fast forward to March 2020 and the pandemic made us question if our wedding was even going to happen…I reached out to the event manager and was able to change our wedding date to the following year: fortunately, we were able to keep the same pricing, even though we moved our wedding into “peak season.” It proves how willing this venue is to accommodate their customers and keep the process as smooth as possible! It definitely helped make an extremely stressful situation significantly less stressful for us! Kimberley is the new event director and started a few months before our wedding, but it didn’t seem like that- she was very attentive and knew what she was doing, which we were very grateful for! If you express what you want, she will deliver it and more! The venue is very affordable, which you won’t find anywhere else in Gloucester…especially on the ocean! 10/10 would recommend! Thank you!!

    Great Location and Awesome Staff

    We had our wedding at the Atlantic Room at the Elks at Bass Rocks on September 3, 2021. Kimberley and the entire staff there were beyond fantastic. She made sure that everything ran smoothly from the time that we selected that venue. She is extremely hands-on throughout the process and whether it was a last minute lay-out change for the seating or the fact that I called her about two hours before the ceremony to find a makeup artist as mine had to cancel due to an emergency. She and the entire staff are consummate professionals. Everyone raved about the food by Creative Catering which is one of their preferred vendors, and she and Lori worked seamlessly. I simply can not thank everyone enough for an amazing day and would absolutely recommend The Atlantic Room for a wedding or any other type of function.

    Extremely Helpful

    Emily has been a calming person in this time of chaos. Keeps in contact so that you can be prepared. Most gorgeous backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean through all the windows.

    Wonderful experience

    I booked the Elks at Bass Rocks for my wedding venue back in January 2019! My wedding date would have been June 13, 2020, however, we postponed it because of covid. The Elks has been so fantastic with all the wedding changes during this tough time; they have made the process so easy and not stressful at all! My fiance and I are so excited to be having our wedding at the Elks in the upcoming months!

    Beautiful venue with a wonderful coordinator!

    We had an amazing wedding at the Elks! Emily was super helpful throughout the process. The planning form she had us fill out was helpful in seeing what our day would look like and made it easier to communicate with our other vendors regarding the day of timeline. We had some questionable weather leading up to our big day, but Emily assured us it would be beautiful no matter what and that we could make the call shortly before the start of the ceremony. Thankfully the rain stopped and we were able to have it outside and she made sure the seats were dry for our guests. If you book this venue between the views and the help of Emily you won’t be disappointed!

    The Elks at Bass Rocks is the best!

    We are sooo happy we decided to book The Elks at Bass Rocks as our wedding venue! You cannot beat this view and this location for the price. I can’t say enough good things about the event coordinator, Emily. She was absolutely amazing and went out of her way for us since the very beginning. She was always so quick to respond to questions and anything we needed. From referring me to the best photographer around, to helping me find a last minute EmCee a week before my wedding, Emily went above and beyond for us so that our day would be perfect! We had a family friend as our DJ who wasn’t as experienced on the wedding side of things, and Emily made sure everything ran smoothly and handled the whole night with so much grace and professionalism that none of our guests realized there was anything going wrong. My husband and I got so many compliments about the Elks and the location and how beautiful it is! Any couple/family looking for an affordable Oceanside venue with a million dollar view, The Elks at Bass Rocks has to be your spot!
