Our wedding was beyond our wildest dreams, thanks to the expertise of the dedicated employees of Oceanview. From the moment we saw their website, we knew it was a special place. Seeing it in person blew us away! We were thrilled with their exceptional service from start to finish; the staff are very communicative and knowledgeable about how to throw the perfect wedding. We couldn't recommend them enough. The all-inclusive package was phenomenal, also. -

We couldn’t be happier with having our wedding at the ocean view. From the space to the amazing view and their amazing team who was there for us and guided us throughout our entire day, we could not be more grateful. Everyone at the ocean view truly felt like apart of our family during the process. We are on cloud 9 after having our wedding at our dream venue. Thank you so much to the entire team at The Oceanview of Nahant. -

Kenny Sent on 11/05/2024Gorgeous venue
From the moment we arrived and saw the stunning views of the water to the nautical themed venue, we both fell in love with this beautiful space and knew this spot was the one for us.
Your staff members worked incredibly hard to ensure no detail was spared and everything was just as we had asked for (and imagined it would be). Special thanks to our wedding coordinators, Ally, Sami, and Caitlin who guided us through the entire process and made sure all aspects from the food, setup, and rehearsal were seamless.
The venue is perfect for a small to medium sized wedding (we had 120 guests). The food was amazing and all our guests were happy with the selections that were chosen and portion sizes. The seafood was delicious, (Broiled Scallops/Bacon, Lobster salad rolls, shrimp boat, filet & lobster tail duet).
The experience provided was amazing and we would highly recommend this venue to any of our friends, family, and prospective couples looking at this spot. -

Heather Sent on 09/08/2024Best Venue. Best day of our lives!
Best day of our lives! Oceanview was able to provide the wedding of our dreams. We used their small but mighty package and would absolutely do it all again. From top notch service to the beauty of the space it was incredible. Sammy was so patient and kind. Both day of coordinators brought the energy and went above and beyond. Running around to make sure everything was perfect and we were happy. They have a system and it works to put together the best weddings. We were a budget friendly package and they NEVER ONCE made us feel like we weren't just as important as someone not using a package deal. Every vendor they suggested was spot on. We went with both Chris for our photographer and Pure Entertainment for the DJ and they both were amazing. 10/10 the best day of our lives started and ended with Oceanview. I would want to have a party there again one day or just go to another wedding there. The food is fantastic, the drinks are fun and yummy, and the space provides so many picture perfect moments. Every guest had a great time and commented on how amazing the space was. We would love to come back again!

The sweeping views of the ocean, the pristine beach, and the beautifully manicured grounds create a magical ambiance that sets the perfect stage for a fairy-tale wedding.
The culinary experience at Oceanview of Nahant was unparalleled. We chose to go with the swordfish and the chicken piccata, both dishes that our guests are still raving about. The hor devours were also spectacular and it was such a perfect touch to have those available to the wedding party in the VIP room during cocktail hour.
The service at Oceanview of Nahant was nothing short of exemplary. The staff exhibited a level of professionalism and warmth that made us feel like royalty. They seamlessly orchestrated every detail of our celebration, ensuring that everything flowed effortlessly. From the attentive waitstaff to the coordinators who meticulously executed our plans, their dedication to making our day perfect was evident in every gesture.
What truly sets Oceanview of Nahant apart, however, is their unwavering commitment to ensuring the bride's happiness. Throughout the planning process and on the big day itself, the staff went above and beyond to make sure the bride never had a care in the world. From handling logistics to offering a calming presence, they allowed the bride to focus on the joy of the occasion, creating an atmosphere of pure bliss.

Lexi Sent on 07/27/2023A Dream Come True
From start to finish this venue has been a dream. The initial virtual meeting was super informative, so we opted to meet in person. My husband fell in love with the venue and didn't want me to look any further. Upon discussing dates and our budget, they were able to offer suggestions which made it helpful and added less stress. Their transparency on what to expect, what items they have to offer, and all of the options they have was what made the process seemless and exciting. We tried to surprise our guests with as little details as possible and the venue did not disappoint. Our guests said the food is the best they've ever had, the views were breathtaking, and the service top notch. We want to come back often for our anniversaries and parties ❤️😁 -

Amber Sent on 07/05/2023The perfect day thanks to Oceanview!
We are in absolute awe of how perfect our wedding day was thanks to the Oceanview of Nahant! From the moment we walked into the venue during our first visit, as overwhelming as picking a venue can we be, we knew this was the location we wanted to get married. A modern space with a beautiful view and an onsite ceremony space - what more could we ask for? Moving forward; contracting, detailing, and of course execution all went seamlessly. Throughout the entire process we were blown away with the level of service Oceanview provided. They truly have the entire process down to a science! Allison was beyond amazing replying to our endless questions and easing our nerves with all the little details. Along with her team, our wedding night went off without a hitch and we are still day dreaming about it! Not to mention the incredible food! We have received nothing but raving reviews from all guests about how delicious everything was. All in all we cannot recommend the Oceanview of Nahant enough, you will not regret hosting your wedding here! Thank you Allison and team for an unforgettable wedding! -

Mariam Sent on 10/14/2022Best staff & amazing food and views
We got married here in May 2022. What an amazing experience from start to finish! Our coordinator, Ally, was a dream to work with and so reliable, friendly and communicative. She always answered my questions promptly over email and kept us on track and was so patient. The actual wedding day ran so smoothly and guests marveled at the great venue choice and stunning views. Everyone loved the wide selection of food, which was delicious, and high quality bar and service. Buffet stations were a big hit as were the signature drinks. We loved the private cocktail hour as well and the appetizers drinks in the VIP suite. Lastly, the staff was also so accommodating and let us move up the timeline slightly as the night started to slow down. We could not have asked for a better experience or more professional & kind staff. 10/10 for the stunning ocean views, food, tailored service and professionalism. Thank you to the whole team for our amazing day! -

This venue was our dream wedding venue. We wanted a beach wedding, and the minute we laid eyes on this place we knew the search was over! Every single staff member was so personable and professional, and we cannot thank them enough for all of their help. The food was incredible, every guest says it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had! The views are unmatched, and they’ve thought of every tiny detail when it comes to decor. And their preferred vendor list is phenomenal! We cannot say enough positive things about this venue! -

Jenna Sent on 12/16/2021The best venue!
Everyone at the Oceanview was super attentive and made sure our big day was everything we were hoping for! The venue itself is breathtaking and has a really fun vibe. We wanted somewhere where we could have our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all in one place, and the Oceanview was the perfect place for that. The food and drinks were delicious and the venue also provided our cake, which was really good too! The planning experience was fun and seamless, and I love how many options the venue had to choose from!The Oceanview of Nahant's reply:
Jenna,
Your wedding day was such an incredibly special and intimate celebration. We are often told that being sort of a "one-stop-shop" is a major highlight of ours! We are so happy to hear that we delivered on all fronts from the vibe, to the food, to the planning. We sincerely appreciate your kind review, and wish you the best of luck! -

Shelby Sent on 08/09/2021Gorgeous Seaside Venue!!
Where do I even begin...
We looked at only one wedding venue in person back in the summer of 2018. We booked it officially 2 days after the venue tour. The Oceanview of Nahant is a hidden paradise in Nahant, MA that is completely private on a beautiful rocky beach. The staff at the venue goes above and beyond from that very first time you tour to the final goodbye at the end of your wedding day.
Our coordinator throughout the entire planning process was the lovely Allison and she was incredible. We are a covid couple, our original wedding date was 8.8.20 and in July of 2020, we made the difficult decision to postpone due to the pandemic. Allison was there to help with anything we needed and she made the postponement process as seamless as possible. She spent many hours with me on the phone and sent countless emails to answer all the questions and concerns I had.
Yesterday (8.8.21) we finally had our wedding celebration and wow, the team at the Oceanview did an absolutely incredible job. From the moment of arrival, Erica, Lish, Mike, the bartenders, all the staff on site that day made sure we were happy and ready for the big day. They kept the drinks flowing, the food hot, the dance floor clean. We were asked consistently if we needed anything and we just couldn't be more thrilled with our experience. Our guests raved about the raw bar, the signature drinks, the clambake menu, the photo booth and everyone was shocked and excited about the ice cream truck being on site at the end of the reception!
We couldn't be happier with how the day turned out. I would HIGHLY recommend the Oceanview to anyone looking for a beautiful seaside New England wedding venue. -

Meghan Sent on 07/06/2021Best day of our lives
My husband and I got married at Oceanview of Nahant on June 5, 2021. It was the best day of our lives, but leading up to this wedding was a little crazy because of COVID. My husband and I struggled with the decision of moving our wedding and losing our date. Our wedding coordinator, Allison, worked with us to keep our date in addition to saving a winter date in 2022 at no additional cost, which was so beyond generous of her. However, we got extremely lucky with the guidelines lifting the week before our wedding and being able to have our full wedding on June 5th. Allison worked with us throughout all the decisions and guideline changes to make us feel fully informed and prepared for what our June 5th wedding would look like. She also dealt with several requests from my family, including having a wine wall, champagne wall, and 2 signature drinks! She also helped place all of our homemade centerpieces the day of the wedding at no additional cost. In addition to Allison, you have the whole Oceanview staff behind you. We worked with many coordinators during the rehearsal and the day of, and they were all incredible. They made our day easy and fun, and they always had the biggest smiles on their faces! Other things I think are worth mentioning include the complimentary tasting you get to help decide on food choices for the wedding (it's really fun, you get open bar and food and get to see a bunch of the couples that will be getting married that year). BTW, the food was INCREDIBLE. We highly recommend doing their grilled cheese station during cocktail hour - everyone at our wedding was raving about it. Also, the surf and turf options were a huge hit and not significantly higher prices than the other meal options. We did the lobster and filet - the lobster was perfectly presented (I was nervous I'd be flying juices on my dress but it was perfectly placed within the shell with no additional work for the guests) and the filet was perfectly cooked. I also want to mention the fact that you can pay for an additional hour the night of your wedding to go outside on their stone beach for s'mores, beer, wine, and continued dancing. My husband and I got to do our last dance outside with our guests surrounding us with sparklers which I'd never seen before - something super special :) I know I'm forgetting so many things to mention, but just know that you will be taken care of by Oceanview and they will make your day one you will never forget. For those at OV reading this, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING, WE REALLY DID HAVE THE BEST DAY OF OUR LIVES :) -

The Oceanview of Nahant is truly amazing. Everyone on the team is professional and full of energy, and they truly have their wedding planning craft perfected. The water side ceremony space and inside reception space are immaculately planned and detailed, and everyone has been through hundreds if not thousands of weddings of all different types. All our questions during the planning process were quickly and thoroughly answered, and all the day of logistical details ran smoothly without us having to worry about anything. Our wedding planner also remarked The Oceanview of Nahant "just does things right", and I can't think of any higher praise. The guests also loved the seafood lobster clambake.The Oceanview of Nahant's reply:

Leigh Sent on 12/06/2020Dream venue
Our wedding day, although not what we'd originally planned, turned out perfectly thanks to the staff at the Oceanview. We got married this past July, when rules and restrictions were changing weekly due to COVID. But despite the uncertainty, the staff still seamlessly and professionally helped us alter our 180 person ceremony down to 50 people family-only. We were thrilled we were able to still get married on the Oceanview property, the view and atmosphere they have is stunning and feels so private. Upon arriving the morning of my wedding and from that moment on, Matt made sure everything ran smoothly, and was so dependable and helpful. It truly felt like everything was under control and I could breathe and relax and focus on what mattered. Even leading up to the ceremony and pre-COVID we were so happy with the customer service we received. Allison was so helpful and knowledgeable when we first toured the property and was efficient and friendly in all her communications following. I really can't recommend the Oceanview enough, my husband and I are so thrilled we chose them for our special day.The Oceanview of Nahant's reply:
Dear Leigh & Cam,
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was our honor and pleasure to host your amazing wedding day! We appreciate your review as well as your flexibility as well as navigated these difficult time TOGETHER! We wish you both all the very best in your new roles as "husband & wife"!

My wedding day could not have been any more perfect thanks to the entire staff at the Oceanview. Matt (the manager) was amazing! He was there every step of the way planning, going above and beyond answering every single question and concern I had. Both Caitlin’s were amazing with setting up a tasting for us and getting us though a very quick and easy rehearsal the day before the wedding. The wedding day itself went so smooth, Matt and Ralph were there at every moment to make sure everything was absolutely perfect. The bartenders and the servers were all so incredibly personable and friendly and just continue to show why the Oceanview is such an amazing place. They 100% deserve every single one of the five stars they are given and I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for their dream wedding venue!The Oceanview of Nahant's reply:

Sara Sent on 09/19/2019My Dream Wedding
My husband and I got married at the Oceanview of Nahant on August 10, 2019. Let me start by saying it was truly the best day of our lives. From the day we booked, Allison was my go-to with any questions. She was amazing. She answered me so quickly and was always happy and willing to do anything to help. There was always reminders sent out so that you know exactly what you should be thinking about in the timeframe you have. There was never any pressure placed to go with any type of extras that they offer. I see that Oceanview’s goal is truly to make your day how you envisioned it.
The day of the wedding, Ralph and Caitlin were there. They were available for anything we needed and thought of anything we didn’t think of. I think Ralph found my phone more than twice that night, and also searched for the box that our champagne flutes came in so they didn’t break on the ride home. Above and beyond. Mike also expressed to me how much fun he and the groomsmen had with him, and enjoyed hearing his many wedding hosting experiences. Oceanview as a team is a well–oiled machine. They are professionals at making your day beautiful. You can let go of everything and enjoy. Our wedding was nothing short of perfect. A month later, guests saying, “that was the best wedding I have ever been to”, and “I can’t get over the views at your venue!” Thank you Oceanview of Nahant, I would recommend you to anyone.
The Oceanview of Nahant's reply:
HI Sara and Mike! Thank you so much for taking the time to write us this awesome review! We are delighted that everything exceeded your expectations and our efforts to make your wedding day were a success!!! : ) We wish you the very best moving forward and thank your for choosing us to celebrate with on your wedding day!
