Evergreen Farms was the perfect wedding venue for our special day. From the moment we first reached out, Jess and Mike were incredibly responsive, helpful, and detailed in their communication. They were flexible and accommodating, even opening the venue early to ensure our vendors had enough time to set up. The venue itself was spacious, with a beautiful rustic charm that provided a creative backdrop for our celebration. All of our guests were amazed by the stunning space, especially the large dance floor that kept the party going all night long. Jess and Mike went above and beyond to help us create the wedding of our dreams. We are so grateful for their exceptional service and highly recommend Evergreen Farms to any couple looking for a truly special venue.

The Boathouse Shelter Island 

5.0

Shelter Island, NY
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $15,000

The Boathouse Shelter Island is a private event space located on Shelter Island at the Island Boatyard and Marina. The recently renovated, 4,000 square foot space features over 200 feet of waterfront and incredible sunset views overlooking West Neck Harbor. The historic building, dating back to the 1920's, was originally used as boat storage. Today, it debuts a new look with versatility for any stylish event. Grammy award winning musician and East End resident Billy Joel recorded his album, River of Dreams, at The Boathouse in 1993.

Working with Megan and the boathouse team was a dream. They're attention to detail and willing to work with us as a couple and our vendors was unmatched. The venue itself is the perfect place to plan a wedding. It's a blank slate and so working with our event designers, we were able to create the most incredible reception space with views of the bay and a cocktail party that our guests are still talking about to this day. If I could relive our day at the Boathouse I would do it over and over again. I recommend this venue and the team that supports it to anyone who is looking to host a wedding out on long island or Shelter Island in particular.

The venue at Pachaug Cottages is an absolute dream! They hosted us for our ceremony and reception of about 75 people on June 25 2022. With the ceremony space right on the lake, we were even able to arrive and depart by boat! The whole day went flawlessly and we definitely recommend having your wedding here! Some of our family even booked the venue for their own wedding this past summer and it was so fun to revisit the location and see all the new additions.
