“We had both our ceremony and reception at The Woodwinds, and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish! The staff was incredibly attentive from the day we booked all the way through our wedding day. They made the entire planning process so smooth—always accommodating, easy to work with, and extremely flexible with all our requests. Sergio was amazing on our wedding day, there was not one hiccup or issue and all thanks to him and his hardworking staff! They truly went above and beyond to ensure we had the best day ever. The food was absolutely delicious, and our guests are still raving about it! The entire night was magical, and we honestly had the best party of our lives. Thank you so much to everyone at The Woodwinds for giving us the most unforgettable night. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or a better team. The pictures speak for themselves! We could not have been happier on the best day of our lives. Highly recommend!”

“I had my wedding at Anthony’s Ocean View. It was amazing and well worth every penny. Brian and Marcello are the best! I will say, the only negative aspect is that I was under the impression that only 1 wedding happened at a time - there was another wedding happening right next to us. This impacted our music, our photos and my speech was cut off because the other weddings music was so loud that the floor vibrated and I had to ask staff to do something. Other than that, the venue was beautiful, so accommodating, and food was absolutely fantastic. Would recommend Anthony’s to anyone.”
