Best decision we made!
Having our wedding at the yacht club was easily the best decision we made throughout the entire wedding planning process. Between the unobstructed views of the bay and the entire staff, we couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue. We looked at several venues from Sea Isle to Cape May, but after meeting with Heather, it was a simple decision for our October wedding. She's extremely accommodating, helpful, and down to earth...we really got the sense that whatever we envisioned for our wedding, she would make it happen... and she definitely did! A big benefit to us was she had tons of wedding decor, centerpieces, etc. that we were able to use if we wanted to. We took her up on her offer for several things like the card box, a big easel stand for our welcome sign, some lanterns and even little sand boxes that we used for our escort "cards". It was so convenient and helpful. I can't forget to mention the food. Absolutely incredible! 5 months later and we are still getting compliments about the food. We also had a brunch buffet for guests the next morning at the yacht club, it was great!
I should also mention that we rented two houses right near the yacht club for the weekend of the wedding. The day before the wedding we had some water in the basement (sewer issue that the township fixed right away) but we had nothing to soak up the water with. Some of the staff from the yacht club came right over and helped clean it up. When I say they the entire staff goes above and beyond, I truly mean it! Each time we are in town, we make it a point to stop by and say hi to Heather, Michelle and the rest of the staff. I genuinely believe that our wedding would not have been half as great if it weren't them.-

The best decision we made!
We got married at YCSIC in Sept 2023. It was the honestly the best choice we made for our wedding. Caitlin, the coordinator, was absolutely amazing, answered all our questions and made sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. The rest of the staff we met was also fantastic and helped make sure everything ran smoothly. The venue itself is so beautiful especially being right on the water. We loved the simple decor because it really just let the view be the main center point. Having the bar upstairs for our after party was so easy and it made things so simple for us and our guests. The pricing was great and food was amazing. I absolutely cannot recommend YCSIC enough.
We had the best day and planning was not stressful with all their help. -

Incredible Wedding Venue!
We got married at the Yacht Club and everything was amazing!! We were originally supposed to have our wedding and reception in September 2020 but had to move everything to September 2021 due to the pandemic. The Yacht Club was extremely accommodating with the whole process of needing to move the wedding. Additionally, the event coordinator was very detail-oriented. I gave her the details of how I wanted things set up the day of the wedding and they took care of everything. People really enjoyed the food, commenting that it was so much better than typical wedding food (and I definitely agree). Overall we had an incredible time, and so did all of our guests. -

YCSIC was absolutely Amazing!
I wish I could give more than 5 stars! I had my wedding here mid-May and it was better than I could have ever imagined. Food was incredible, staff was absolutely outstanding, and everything went so well! From set-up, questions, specific requests, the Yacht Club coordinator Caitlin was there to assist. She is wonderful along with the whole YCSIC staff. Even when my dress bustle broke, a staff member helped me in the bathroom with her own sewing kit to make sure my night went perfect. Wish I could relive the day and night all over again -

Great to work with, amazing views!
Heather and YCSIC have been amazing to work with. We were supposed to have our wedding on 6/6/20 but due to the pandemic we weren’t able to. The club typically does not have late summer weddings, however opened up Saturday dates for us to change to! We moved to 8/22, but with all of the current restrictions we were nervous to have our event. Heather and the yacht club were amazing and gave us multiple options (new dates for 2020, postpone to 2021, or a full refund). Unfortunately with restrictions and postponing once already we decided to take the refund, but the yacht club was amazing to work with. I have heard horror stories from other venues keeping money and not allowing guests to cancel or postpone during this time. During the planning process, Heather was so amazing to work with and quickly answered all of our questions. We are sad we won’t be able to have our day here, but would highly recommend YCSIC for a wedding! The food at our tasting was great and views are spectacular. -

The Best Day EVER!
The YCSIC made our dream wedding day come true! Heather and the YCSIC team were super easy to work with. They put all our worries at ease. Heather especially is very organized ,attentive and goes above and beyond to make sure everything comes together for not only the bride, but for the wedding party and family. We really could not have asked for a better venue and appreciate all their hard work- Not to mention the view is amazing!!! -

best. wedding venue. Ever!
WOW. My husband, our families, our friends, and myself could not be more blown away by the SICYC. Every single staff member that worked our wedding was incredible. Heather Garrabrant deserves a special shout out. She was a huge deciding factor for us when choosing our venue. She was so extremely organized and efficient. My wedding day would not have run as smooth if it wasn’t for Heather. I honestly cannot day enough good things about the yacht club. The food, service, views were all incredible. I would 10/10 recommend to anyone!!! -

Amazing venue
We searched 10 locations from Cape May to Sea Isle and not only fell in love with the venue but with the sunset. Heater the wedding planner was also the best. I can’t imagine not having Heather. So knowledgable, professional and most of all calm. There was nothing she wouldn’t do or help us with. The compliments on the food were overwhelming positive. I would do it all over again at the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City. -

Amazing Staff, Beautiful Venue
Heather and the entire team at YCSIC were a dream to work with. Heather is a true professional when it comes to weddings and works seamlessly with your other vendors. She steps up where ever there is a need and without you even being aware she orchestrates every moment of your day. Her flexibility is amazing. The food was delicious from apps to entrees and many guest mentioned this to us as well. The venue is gorgeous and allows for flexibility in what your day might look like. -

Heather and all of the YCSIC staff are amazing!
Everyone at YCSIC is amazing! The food was delicious!! Above and beyond your typical wedding food. All of the staff were incredibly professional, accommodating, and attentive. We originally were interested in this venue because of its location, but after meeting with Heather and seeing it in person we were sold. In the months leading up to our wedding, she was never too busy to answer any of our questions, and always made us feel like ours was the only wedding she was concerned about. She was a joy to plan with - very accommodating and detail oriented. I didn't feel I had to stress about anything because I trusted she understood exactly what I envisioned and she definitely did not disappoint! Everything was perfect!! -

Incredible wedding venue!
We had the most wonderful wedding at the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City. We looked at a ton of venues in the South Jersey area and as soon as we stepped into the YCSIC we knew it was where we wanted to hold our reception. The building is bright, clean and spacious. The wrap around windows ensure that all of your guests will have a great view of the bay regardless of the weather. The food was incredible. All of our guests raved about the scallops and prime rib. Perhaps the greatest part of having your wedding at the YCSIC is that you get to work with Heather. She is incredible! She is so well organized and on top of everything. Heather is happy to answer any question you might have leading up to the wedding. She was especially helpful and flexible the week prior when we were unsure about the weather on the wedding day. I can't imagine planning a wedding without Heather! -

I cannot say enough great things about this venue!! Heather and the rest of staff were phenomenal!! Food was great and we heard from many guests that they were happily full before the main course came out. Heather encouraged us to try a different type of dinner bc we weren’t really into a traditional sit down - so we had a slider bar and fries along with a bunch of sides - it was such a hit! You really can’t beat the sunset view off the dock- our wedding pics were awesome!! If you want a beach ceremony they set it up and take it down. Zero stress leading up to the big day and definitely none on the day of! Thank you yacht club staff and especially heather for the best day!! -

When we walked in to the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City, we immediately fell in love with the floor to ceiling view of the bay and the openness of the club. We wanted an outside wedding but the only date that was available was late March and liked that one of the outside areas was heated. We decided to have our ceremony on the dock. Chairs were set up for us and other could watch from one of the two decks overlooking the dock. It was just beautiful! Heather, the event coordinator, was extremely helpful and answered all of our questions and presented us with questions we didn't think to ask! She was extremely responsive and helpful with recommendations and accommodating our needs. The food was amazing and even our vegans and gluten free friends loved their meals. The entire wedding was run on time and my husband and I didn't have to worry about a thing (even when one of my husband's friends showed up but didn't respond yes as Heather took care of him!). I would recommend YCSIC to anyone as it is truly a beautiful place to host and event and Heather and Jim are just wonderful. -

We are so happy that we chose the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City for our wedding reception. They did an absolutely beautiful job and made our wedding day everything we could have dreamed of and more. Heather was incredible to work with and made it such an seamless experience, she had all of the answers and was always so quick to respond. She made the entire planning process as easy as possible and I am so grateful. The entire staff was awesome from the bartenders, kitchen and wait staff everyone was very friendly and professional. The food was also delicious we offered filet, flounder with crab and scallops and we received many compliments! Overall this venue space is beautiful and the view is spectacular. Me and my husband can’t thank you enough for making our wedding day so amazing and the best day ever for us! We would recommend the Yacht Club without hesitation! Thank you all so much! -Bonnie & Bill-

My son got married at the SIYC Sunday September 9th 2018. He and his fiancee planned the wedding with Heather the most calm, collected human being ever. The setting is beautiful, and fresh. The families were able to sample every appetizer along with several other couples and their families at a special private event taste testing event. We got to have a family style meal of each of the 3 or 4 dinner selection they considered. I am not one for pork chops but theirs was the best. Heather offered many cost savings options. The night of our event came. The drinks, food and the staff were exceptional. The staff very accommodating. Here's the kicker. It poured that day, high winds and with the high tide at 9 PM, the road flooded. The staff was amazingly competent, moving cars out of harm's way. Heather was calm. The waters receded and all was well. The food was outstanding. A rainy wedding was sunny at the Sea Isle Yatch Club -

I'm the owner of KD Photography in Sea Isle City, NJ and I have photographed many weddings and family events at the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City over the years. My sister and brother-in-law were also married there in November of 2017. I can't say enough about how perfect their wedding was, and also how wonderful my experience has been working as a vendor there for all different events.
From a professional wedding vendor's point of view, not only is it a beautiful event location with the perfect backdrop of the sunset over the bay, but it's also truly ideal for pictures with the layout of the reception room, decks for cocktail hour, and just overall modern feel, giving the clients the ability to add their touches wherever they'd like. The staff there is also amazing. Heather is a wonderful coordinator who is extremely talented at her job. She's personable, laid-back, and always helpful to the vendors there, which makes everything run incredibly smoothly. The entire staff is pleasant and helpful as well.
From a client's perspective everything is just as wonderful. It was extremely windy the day of my sister's wedding and we ended up having to do the ceremony inside instead of out on the dock. It was no problem at all. The entire staff was ready to help turn the room around to set up for a beautiful, last-minute indoor ceremony, and then as all the guests went upstairs to cocktail hour, they reset the room for the reception. Heather and everyone there were so helpful and flexible with everything my sister, brother-in-law, (and the rest of us) needed or wanted. And the bartenders also make amazing drinks (which made giving my speech a little bit easier).
Overall, as a vendor and a guest/client, I can say that I absolutely love working with the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City, and highly recommend them as your venue for any event you are looking to have!! -

Heather and the staff at the YCSIC were absolutely phenomenal with helping make our Wedding Day perfect and easy. YCSIC was the first and only venue that we looked at for our wedding and there was not a single thing which I would have changed about our day. The ceremony and reception went so smooth and the YCSIC was very accommodating to our requests. Our guests raved about the food and the bartenders were so friendly to our guests. We look forward to attending more events in the near future at the YCSIC! Thanks for helping make our wedding dreams come true! -

Always a professional group and fun! Heather, Jim, the bartenders and servers really took care of us. The room looked beautiful. And Nette's cupcakes were to die for! And the music by Sean Durbin was the perfect accompaniment. Got lots of compliments on the food as well. -

Heather and her staff were unbelievable. They took my ideas for decorations and made the place look 100 times better than I imagined. Heather was very responsive to emails and made the experience so stress free. The team at the yacht club were amazing and the place is gorgeous. Our guests are still raving about sunset pictures and overlooking the ceremony from the deck. -

Everything was perfect. Heather and the rest of the staff were extremely helpful throughout the entire process and were accommodating to our needs; such as our families having food allergies and they were willing to work with us on the menu. The inside and out outside were both absolutely gorgeous and the color scheme worked perfectly with what we were going for!!! The food was excellent all of my guests raved about the flat iron stake and the cheese stake egg rolls :). I can not thank you guys enough for making my day so very special-

From the moment I walked into sea isle yacht club I felt so comfortable with their coordinater , Heather. The venue is absolutely stunning , but the best part is having Heather there along the entire way. For someone who is as OCD as myself Heather was the perfect person to calm every nerve & make the entire process nothing short of perfect. She is the reason my wedding & the wedding process was so stress free. I cannot reccoment SIC YC enough and especially working with heather. The food was unbelieveable my guest are still raving about it months later . Every single thing came together so perfectly from the moment we booked with them! -

As the mother of the bride, I worked closely with Heather. She was a fantastic partner as my daughter and I worked our way through the planning process. The wedding was everything we hoped it would be. Heather and the whole staff at the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City were wonderful. I can't say enough good things about them. -

Heather and the entire staff at the yacht club were amazing for our wedding reception, and their help for our ceremony! Heather was always available to answer questions and was more than accommodating. The room looked beautiful and was set up perfect. I am not the most detail oriented person and Heather totally picked up my slack without me even having to ask, and made everything look perfect! One of the best parts of this venue is the amazing view, and the fact that you have access to the huge deck all night. The dining room is so spacious, and having the two bars open made it so easy for guests. There was plenty of room to dance, which was very important to me and our guests! Food was great too!! We also paid to have the yacht club set up chairs and an arch on the beach for our ceremony as well, which was worth every penny! The entire day/night was seamless. Heather also allowed us to use the yacht club as a back up plan in case of bad weather, and was sure to ask all questions about that ahead of time that way they would be prepared for a last minute situation. Luckily we had amazing weather!! Overall, Heather and the staff at the yacht club are sooo attentive that I can't see how you can go wrong by having your wedding there!
Make sure to take pictures on the dock at sunset!!!!-

Fantastic Rehearsal dinner at the Sea Isle Yacht Club. The food and service were excellent, and of course the views and venue simply can't be beat. Thanks to Heather and the entire crew for making the evening go perfect! -

After being in the restaurant business for over 20 years, I never would have believed that a wedding could run so smoothly with everything to rave about! The food, the bar, the staff, they paid attention to every detail and left nothing to chance! -

We could not have picked a better venue for our wedding. It was exactly what we hoped for and more. Every single guest had told us how much fun they had and how much they enjoyed themselves. The food was absolutely amazing and the whole staff and crew went above and beyond for us. I don’t know how we would have gotten through the whole ordeal without Heather, Kevin, and Jim’s help! -

I cannot speak highly enough about the team at the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City. They made everything about our day, truly incredible. From the moment we stepped in the door almost a year before our wedding, Heather and her team were on it. My husband and I live very far away so planning a wedding from far away had it's challenges. However, Heather was responsive, informative, organized and very understanding. We unfortunately were getting smacked with a hurricane on the day of our wedding. Heather and John took care of every concern or detail I didn't know if we could handle with the storm. We had to switch our ceremony last minute from the beach to the venue. Every detail was accomplished. It almost seemed that plan "B" was the original game plan all along.
Heather, John, Tim and the entire team are true professionals. Chef Kevin's dishes were perfect.. we absolutely loved the lobster ravioli, scallops wrapped in bacon and crabcakes and of course, pigs in the blanket were a huge hit. The food was outstanding, the drinks were great, the service was amazing and when the sun decided to peek out during cocktail hour, it left us with the most beautiful sunset on the bay we could have ever asked for. What I loved most about this place was that they treated you like they were their family. They truly care about your experience and making sure you have the best day of your life. They made that happen for us. -

I've been trying to think about how to word this review so that it doesn't come off so gushing that it seems fake! But honestly, our experience with YCSIC for our wedding in October was absolutely fantastic. Heather was responsive, kind, thorough, and absolutely made it easy. From the first emails, to visiting, the taste testing, and the day of it was the perfect balance of helping me figure out what I wanted but then also moving like a well oiled machine behind the scenes. The setting is beautiful, the building is great (saves a lot of money on decor bc it's already nautical), the bar and serving staff were fabulous, truly it was perfect. And all that with the fact that I spent a whole year dreaming of getting married outside on the docks, but the rain had other plans and we had to switch to inside, and it was still amazing. Heather also has a list of preferred vendors that I used and was so pleased with all of them. Jim the GM is incredibly nice and helpful as well. And they were so fair with the pricing considering all the help and support you get in planning. I cannot say enough good things. We loved it all. -

We cannot say enough good things about the yacht club. The coordinator, Heather, was amazing to work with from day one. We live out of town and were unable to see her often but she was easy to get a hold of and responded with any questions/concerns. The venue is beautiful with the bay and outdoor deck areas. The service was amazing and the food was phenomenal (we highly recommend the pork chop). Heather and the staff made the day go smoothly and I was a very calm bride because of her. She had everything under control and knew exactly how to keep our guests happy the entire night. We highly recommend this venue if you are a Sea Isle City faithful like ourselves. Thanks for the best day :) -

The YSIC is a beautiful venue to have your wedding. My husband and I knew we wanted to have our wedding there the minute we walked in. The view is breathtaking and the room is gorgeous. Heather and the staff are very friendly and accommodating and will not disappoint you the day of the wedding. Heather was fantastic throughout the planning process. She set everything up for us the day of our wedding and she has a creative eye on how things should look! She answered all of our questions in a timely fashion and was willing to try to accommodate any requests. They also are willing to work with you on the food and drink choices. The food is absolutely delicious, like other reviewers, it was hard to choose and not just upgrade everything! Our guests haven't stopped talking about the food and the view and how much they loved our wedding at our venue. We wish we could do it all over again, but rest assured we will be back to relive our day from time to time with our associate membership! We love the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City! -

5 Stars~ we would give more if we could. From the first email and meeting with Heather we were sold. The location and decor of the club is beautiful. Clean, updated, fresh, open, bright and inviting. The FOOD~ no words. Everything was delicious. We had a hard time narrowing down our options because everything was so yummy. We were invited to a wedding tasting and couldn't even taste everything b/c we were so full. We were also NOT limited to the options in the wedding packet. Heather, Event/Banquet Manager and head chef Kevin were open to any special requests or ideas. We had a cocktail style reception with open seating and our guests loved the relaxed dining atmosphere. Our guests are still talking about the Raw Bar, the Lamb Lollipops and Filet Mignon Wrapped Horseradish Cream Artichokes. The BEST part, the price. We believe the YCSIC is a hidden gem and what you receive for the cost per person is exceptional. -

Heather and the Yacht Club staff went so far above and beyond for our day!! Heather is amazing. She was responsive, flexible, & available throughout the whole process and ensured everything ran smoothly. The food was delicious and they're willing to deliver whatever you request. We got so many compliments on the food (apps and dinner) -- everything came out perfectly done and warm! To us, the Yacht Club was a perfect fit because it is a nice, classy venue, but not stuffy. This is definitely a venue where you get what you pay for and they want to work with you, rather than just get paid. We couldn't have asked for a better experience for our wedding day!! -

From our initial on-site meeting with Heather Garrabrant, the club event manager, we found the entire staff to be friendly, professional and accommodating. We especially appreciated the flexibility, yet attention to detail, provided throughout the planning of my daughter's wedding- "anything you want, we can do" was a phrase Heather used often. The wedding day itself was seamless. Guests were most impressed with the beauty of the venue (ceremony on the dock, cocktail hour on deck and dinner inside dining room), friendliness of staff and quality of the food (and the fact that it was served hot) for 180+ guests. Of course the spectacular double rainbows and colorful evening sky over the bay was the perfect gift to our very special day. -

YCSIC is a wonderful venue. Heather and her staff took care of things (both before, during and after the wedding) that I did not even know needed to be done! Heather is responsive and kind and they are incredibly flexible. We enjoyed every aspect of working with the Yacht Club, and they made the wedding so stress-free. Heather told me many times not to worry- and she was right! I didn't have to worry one bit with their team helping. They have a few different price points, but for open bar and seated dinner we ended up around $85/person plus some additional costs. We also had the ceremony on-site which went very smoothly and had a nominal additional fee. The venue has options for both indoor and outdoor ceremonies and you can decide right up to the last minute, which worked great for us with the tricky spring weather. The staff was incredibly courteous and helpful during the event and many of our guests commented on how professional the venue and staff are. -

Heather was such an amazing help during the wedding planning process! She was able to answer all of our questions, usually within the hour we sent them to her! It made for a very relaxing/stress free process! If you are looking for a place to have your reception.... contact Heather at the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City; she is the BEST! -

I can't write enough praises about the Yacht Club of Sea Isle. They saved us when our venue called 2 months prior to our wedding date to say we could no longer have our wedding there due to construction gone wrong. Based on recommendations from a family member, we immediately called Heather at the Yacht Club. She was so easy to work with, and even in our difficult situation with the previous venue, she always had our best interests at heart. Instantly I knew it would be a good fit! She immediately responded to any questions we had with a reply to email AND a phone call, her service was way above anything I have ever seen. Even at the group tasting she was able to spend time with every family to make sure they were taken care of. On the day of, she had everything under control in a very calm and professional manner. The staff was superb, many of our guests told us how friendly and accommodating they were. The food was excellent- again, our guests complimented how good the food was, especially the appetizers. The Yacht Club members were all so friendly and cheered for us when we walked through the member bar to get to the top deck for pictures. One of the best parts of the Yacht Club was that weather that day called for rain, most venues make you call whether the ceremony is inside or out several hours in advance, we were able to make a game time decision and hold the ceremony outside in the brief window that the weather let up! -

Heather and the staff at the Yacht Club of Sea Isle were outstanding to work with! I have been to my share of weddings, and my husband and I wanted to have a venue that was more of a "location." The views of the Yacht Club are breathtaking. We were married on the dock on a gorgeous day. Later that evening, we enjoyed the most beautiful sunset pictures that turned out amazing! The building itself is brand new and looks very clean and sharp. It has windows all around, providing guests with incredible views of the bay.
But the FOOD! Our choices were the Filet, Macadamia Dusted Scallops and Crab-Stuffed Shrimp. Oh my gosh. The steaks were cooked to perfection. The scallops were huge. The shrimp, delicious! Our guests keep raving about the food! It was served quickly and hot. No one waited and everything was perfectly timed! The cocktail hour... we've all been there when you have to stalk the waiters to get hors d'ourves! This is always one of my biggest pet peeves! Heather assured me that waiters would be circulating constantly, and there was not one complaint.
There were two bars operating and I never saw a line. The guests said the bartenders were very personable and efficient. The same bartender did our rehearsal and served us mimosa's the day after the wedding. They were incredible!
I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a NJ shore wedding. Heather is amazing to work with. I emailed her after the wedding and told her that I missed emailing her! She is incredibly prompt and organized. She put my mind at ease the months leading up to the wedding and of course the day of. She always made me and my husband feel so special. I loved every minute of working with her! -

I honestly cannot begin to thank Heather and the staff at the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City enough for the amazing work they did on my wedding day. I was married on 9/28/13 and chose the yacht club as my reception venue and also my ceremony setup team for the beach wedding in SIC. The only word to describe the job they did is AMAZING! I am still getting compliments on the food, service and venue. Everything was served hot and delicious, there were no lines at the bar, the staff was super attentive and Heather made sure everything was on time. I did look at the other yacht clubs in the south Jersey area and was not that impressed with the package offerings. I am so glad we were able to book the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City and would recommend it to anyone planning a wedding at the shore! -

Wonderful experience at the Yacht Club but especially with Heather. Nothing phases her the day of. She had assistants ready to jump into ge water to help us dock our boat (thank gosh we didn't end up needing it!), she had chairs quickly added when guests brought guests that we didn't know about prior. She was so kind throughout the entire process. The Yacht Club is a beautiful facility and the perfect venue for a wedding. -

My daughter had her wedding here. We were excited about this space because of the beautiful view and the promise that everything would be taken care of. But sadly, not everything went as we expected.
For favors, we made homemade cookies for our guests to take home. The cookies were to be displayed with boxes on a table next to the wedding cake. We provided all the cookies and little boxes to put them in and we were told the cookies would be put out toward the end of the evening and the table would be monitored. After all the guests had left, I discovered most of our cookies under the dessert table and most of the little boxes still on top of the table and was shocked to realize so many of our guests went home without a favor. The servers only put out some of the cookies and left the rest of them under the table. The empty cookie trays on the table were not noticed or refilled. The table was not attended as promised.
The next day I called and explained the situation to Heather, the catering manager. I was promptly told off by her and treated as if I was being unreasonable. She said that our guests ate all of the wedding cake and there were no leftovers. What did that have to do with our cookies not being put out? Needless to say, I am left with the memory of being scornfully talked to and treated with disrespect the morning after my daughter's wedding :- -
