Beautiful Venue with Exceptional Staff and Affordable Prices

We held our wedding at Kurtz's Beach in September and couldn't be happier we decided to hold it there. The venue is beautiful, the staff is amazing and they were a lot more affordable than similar venues we looked at. They have 2 outdoor ceremony locations both on the water and the ballroom also has gorgeous water views. We worked with Ashley leading up to the wedding and she was fantastic! She was really helpful and super responsive throughout the entire process. We met with John to discuss the menu and he made some great recommendations and was able to accommodate all of our special requests for the menu and bar. Deb was our day of coordinator and she was amazing! She was on top of everything throughout the entire night, making sure all of the décor and other items that we brought were setup where we wanted them, directing us through the ceremony, keeping us on schedule and making sure our drinks were filled the entire night. The night definitely would not have gone as smoothly without Deb's help and attention to detail.

Title: A Dream Wedding at Kurtz's Beach!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My husband and I had the pleasure of hosting our wedding at Kurtz's Beach on November 17th, and it was nothing short of magical. From the moment we chose this stunning venue, everything fell into place seamlessly.

Firstly, let's talk about the weather—it was mid-November, and against all odds, we were blessed with a beautiful 70-degree day. It felt like a sign that Kurtz's Beach was the perfect choice for our special day. The picturesque waterfront added an extra layer of charm to the entire celebration.

The team at Kurtz's Beach, led by the amazing Ashley and John, exceeded all our expectations. Ashley was incredibly responsive, addressing every question or concern promptly, regardless of the time. John played a crucial role in the planning process, patiently guiding us through every detail and ensuring that we understood the entire process.

Our day-of coordinator, Deb, was an absolute gem. Her warm and personable nature instantly put us at ease, and she worked tirelessly to ensure that everything unfolded flawlessly. Trusting Kurtz's team to handle the placement of every detail was a stress reliever like no other. We could truly enjoy our day, knowing that we were in capable hands.

We opted for Dance Masters Entertainment as our preferred DJ, and Sue and Don elevated the reception to new heights. Their upbeat energy and enthusiasm turned the celebration into an unforgettable party. The dance floor was alive with joy, and they played a significant role in making our reception truly special.

SERIOUSLY, if you're looking for a venue that combines natural beauty, exceptional service, and a team that genuinely cares about making your day perfect, look no further than Kurtz's Beach. Our wedding was a dream come true, thanks to the incredible people at Kurtz's who went above and beyond to create lasting memories for us and our guests. We wholeheartedly give them five stars and our heartfelt gratitude!
