“As I’ve said to anyone who’s asked, booking The Bay Jewel was the best decision we made when planning our wedding!! And Renee is just amazing!! We booked back in 2019 and through all of the craziness with COVID, Renee made the whole planning process easy and absolutely fun!! When I say they do EVERYTHING to make your day easy, fun, and perfect... they literally do everything!! Alex was awesome during the reception! The reception was beautiful and so much fun! They are so easy to get in contact with for any and all questions. Overall, our wedding was the best day ever and a huge reason for that was because of The Bay Jewel!! I will miss y’all! Thank you!”
