From our first tour to our wedding day, the whole entire experience at Bayside Resort & Golf Club made our whole engagement beyond memorable. The staff, especially Mackenzie and her team, were incredibly personable, able to see our vision, helpful, and just "got" us. Every single detail was thoughtfully planned out, and they were so supportive throughout the process. The venue itself was gorgeous, with beautiful and the most perfect space for our 206 guests. The Bayside team were incredible to work with - flexible and accommodated our vendors (Love Seed Mama Jump, Philly Photo Booth, and even a tattoo artist!) Service of food and drinks were beyond amazing! The Skinny Lemon Crush and Espresso Martinis were delicious!! We could not have asked for a better venue and experience for our special day.
