Celebrations at the Bay truly couldn’t have been a better venue for our wedding. From the beautiful venue, to the amazing food, it was a pleasure working with this venue. Zoe was the person we were in communication with up until our wedding, and she was a blessing. She answered every question I had and calmed my nerves.

We have been working with [and for] Castle Farm since the beginning. We did the first wedding ever there! Every year they add something new and there are tons of places for pictures! The owners are great people and are extremely accommodating to everyone! You can have a beer pony, horses in your portraits and the guests truly love the interaction! No matter where you are you get an incredible view! I can't say enough about this place and the owners...it is definitely a one of a kind location you won't forget!

Lia, Angie, and their team is nothing short of phenomenal. From my first walk through to the days after the wedding this team was on top of everything you can imagine. The process was so seamless I was never stressed and felt so special throughout the entire process. They were extremely accommodating to the many food allergies we had. Everything was straight forward. The tasting and walkthrough were so fun! Their communication is nothing like the horror stories of other brides at venues. They were prompt, effective, and extremely helpful. I live 3 hours from the location off-season and they were accommodating with dates to come in and overall communication. They made all our dreams come true! After the wedding, the amount of guests who remarked on the food, the service, bartenders, all staff, and flow of event was something I never expected. Truly a top tier wedding venue in Ocean City Maryland! Thank you again Lia, Angie, and teams!

Hy husband and I were married at Lighthouse Sound on September 8th. To say that our day was perfect would be an understatement. Here is our review… The Space: We continue to have our guests tell us that this was the most beautiful wedding venue they have ever seen even months after our wedding. Our ceremony took place in the gazebo, cocktail hour on the patio, and reception in the tent (rented from Coastal Tented Events). All with incredible water views, cooling breezes, and great light. We were blessed with amazing weather, but also loved the indoor backup plan. The Staff: During the planning process, we worked with incredible coordinators. Shellie and Rose were THE BEST to work with. They were willing and excited to answer my one million questions the months leading up to the wedding. Shellie communicated with our other vendors and gave recommendations every step of the way. Their day-of coordination was SPOT ON. They made sure every decoration, floral arrangement, sign, etc. was perfect and that the entire schedule of the day ran smoothly. The wonderful bartenders and servers provided outstanding service for my husband and I and all of our guests. The drinks were great and the food was incredible. Which brings me to the food… The Food: We loved how many options were available when selecting our menu… dinner tiers, plated or buffet style, hors d’oeuvres, and desserts. Having the catering done in house was so helpful and made our planning process easier. The Golf: My husband loves to golf! He enjoyed playing the course on the morning of our wedding (he got one foursome for free). The pro shop was happy to help with scheduling tee times for his groomsmen and our other family members that played as well. He said this is one of his favorite courses he has ever played! We cannot recommend Lighthouse Sound more. We had the most incredible wedding and credit so much of that to the wonderful people and experience Lighthouse Sound. We can’t wait to come back for more meals and golf next time we are in town.
