Beach Ceremony/Reception in New England?!

I'm looking for ideas for a beach wedding in New England. My budget is tight and I'm looking to hire a caterer myself and other outside vendors. If anyone has ideas for a sandy/beach ceremony and a tent that is supplied or if we can set up ourselves and also allows outside vendors, that would be...

If anyone has ideas for a sandy/beach ceremony and a tent that is supplied or if we can set up ourselves and also allows outside vendors, that would be amazing!

    Kate, Salerno's on Onset Beach has plated dinner options for about $20/head, and they're really, really fantastic. Their website isn't too great, but their venue and customer service are fantastic.

    The Nantasket Beach has a hotel you can look at renting out to hold a smaller wedding at. it's right by the amazing beach there. It's South of Boston, by Hingham.

    How can you have even priced food trucks if you haven't picked a STATE yet? This makes no sense to me.

    Like I said, I haven't found a catering company that is cheaper, but if anyone has recommendations, that would be great. I researched the price of food trucks and it can range between $250-500 per food truck which is way cheaper than a caterer. But I am open to suggestions if anyone can find a venue that has affordable catering Smiley smile

    Kyle, I'll check out your suggestion! And Ro, I emailed them for wedding details. Thank you!

    So, just a guess, but that may be $250-$500 for the rental fee, not including the price of food. Like the food truck shows up and then people say for the food? It would be unusual to have a quote like that for catering without a per person cost for each dish served.

    But PITA hall does allow outside catering, and I'm sure many New Hampshire caterers would make the trip, if you're against looking at Massachusetts caterers. Newburyport is close to NH.

    Yeah I mean I'm open to caterers, it's just hard to find a venue that allows outside catering in the first place. But I'll check out PITA! Thank you!

    Again- multiple venues in CT that you can do this at.

    Lighthouse point park

    Rocky neck state park

    Harkness memorial state park

    Catering will only run you $60-85/person at these places for most caterers I spoke with.

    Fosters clam bake York Maine. On the beach, affordable but no outside catering. They are fabulous.

    Check out Misslewood in Beverly - we did our pictures on the beach and the venue is beaaaaaaautiful. They have August 19, 2017 open, we just booked ours! They make you use 1 of 3 caterers but one is super cheap.
