We hosted both our rehearsal dinner and welcome party here on a Saturday night in June of 2024 and I would book this again and again if I could! We had around 35 people for the dinner which was hosted in a semi-private area downstairs. We had salads, appetizers and then three options for meals and every option was delicious!! We then head upstairs where we hosted a welcome party for about 100 guests and the Hors d'oeuvres food served buffet style upstairs was just as good as the plated dinner we had downstairs. The dessert was also amazing!! Everyone was raving about the location and the staff helping to work the bar were so friendly. The venue was BYOB and they made it easy to drop off the alcohol ahead of time and kept it cold and restocked constantly. Everyone was so great to work with and they customized everything exactly how we wanted it. I truly can't recommend Spiaggetta enough!! We loved the food so much we went back for dinner a few days later while we staying in Stone Harbor for a few days. The location also can't be beat it is right across the street from the Reeds and within walking distance from everything in Stone Harbor!

Megan, the director, is an absolutely dream to work with. quick responses, explains everything clearly, a sweetheart. Hotel is super clean, the food is amazing and the staff were lovely. The Maitre De went missing a lot throughout the day, to the point where my uncle had to find her whenever i needed. They set up & cleaned everything up for us which was lovely. the hotel bar stayed open late (sunday wedding) but you couldn’t make it private. so you had people at the bar trying to add to an open tab. you get a room block, the director of rooms Rebecca is very easy to work with as well. the outdoor ceremony space is gorgeous!!!

Rachael and her team were absolutely amazing for our wedding whenever I had a question about the venue I knew I would get a very quick response from Rachael days leading up to the wedding. We kept our eye out on the forecast, hoping to have the ceremony outside in the garden however, with the rain we had to have it inside, but it was still absolutely perfect, they were able to get it, so that way you didn’t see everything underneath the tent during the ceremony and most of the time you didn’t even know they were there.

Shore Catering

  • Caterer
  • Serves Toms River, NJ

5-Star Full-Service Catering from casual to elegant for all occasions since 1988. We offer packages for all occasions such as wedding receptions, lobster clambakes, bbq picnics, beach parties, showers, anniversaries, and so much more. Our team will assist you from start to finish, planning your menu, coordinating rentals, linen colors, floorplans, timelines, vendor referrals, private tastings and so much more. We bring our catering services to all corners of New Jersey and will also assist you in trying to find the perfect venue to suit your event's needs. Shore Catering can help make your event a memorable occasion.

When we tasted the food we knew that our guests would be happy with our selection of shore catering (and we were right! We recieved many compliments on the dinner and hors d'oeuvres). What we DIDN'T realize is that we were receiving more than just a catering service- we were receiving what felt like a warm welcome into a family business that took some of the stress out of the wedding planning process! Shore was the only caterer we encountered that was willing to work within our budget, and individually tailor a package to meet our needs, allowing us to feel comfortable financially without feeling like we were sacrificing ANY of the quality and elegance that we wanted for our wedding! Moreover, on the day of our wedding, summer took care of us as though we were her oldest friends, meeting us with so much genuine warmth and a contagious smile. She made sure we were able to actually eat and drink (which so many of our friends told us would be difficult to do at our wedding!) and kept the vibe HIGH even in spite of pouring rain and floods on the day of the event! We wish we could get married again and again and we would hire Shore Catering every single time!! I HIGHLY recommend Shore Catering to any bride and groom who want all of the quality with none of the stress!

PeterJames Floral Couture

  • Florist
  • Serves Toms River, NJ

I have been in the creative floral industry for more than 30 years. Left my corporate job to play and create and I have never looked back. I have designed and created florals for weddings and events up and down the eastern seaboard, a small town boy never strays too far. My small company also offers Planning and Coordination packages and I have great relationships among many vendors and venues. If your needs extend beyond beautiful florals, I am absolutely sure I have the person for you.

I loved how Peter was able to take what I sent him over email into exactly what I wanted. My centerpieces and bouquets were all white flowers with some greenery. Peter came up with different white flowers like roses and calla lilies to make beautiful arrangements. I never would have been able to create floral arrangements on my own, so I’m very happy that I went with his company for my big day.

  • Serves Toms River, NJ

I started in photography much as everyone else did. What was once a hobby in 2002 quickly became a passion. I started out with a 35mm film set up and would hang out in the city capturing candid moments of people going about their day to day lives. For me, it was like stepping outside the world around me and documenting it like looking through a window into a world I was no longer part of. In 2008, when I myself got married, I realized that a wedding day is one of the most emotional moments for a couple. Not only for them but for the families involved as well! It was Oct. 31st, 2008 when I shot my first wedding. I haven't looked back since.

My sister got married about a year ago and used Inspire me imagery, we had such a great experience it was a no brainer when I was planning my wedding! Lauren and her crew could not have been anymore amazing! I felt completely comfortable with her and took her lead on everything, the result were some pretty amazing photos we’ll be able to cherish forever! Shout out to Mediha and Jyoti for being a great addition to team! All smiles and there to lend a helping hand wherever needed The day started out a little shaky as most wedding days do(our wedding party was late to the venue) but once we got going we had the best time! Everyone was relaxed and having a great time, this crew captured some truly amazing and memorable moments! We’re struggling on which photos to hang up there’s so many good ones! Thank you Lauren for making our day even more special and for capturing some great moments for us to cherish! Hire these guys you will not regret it!

The Shore Club was a cost-effective choice for our wedding venue. The communication with their event coordinator was direct, easy and quick, making planning straightforward. While the venue itself is dated with a basic design, we felt it was a good value for the price. The simple layout allowed us to decorate the space and make it our own for the big day. Guests commented that they enjoyed the food. We had about 170 people in their large ballroom and it was packed. I wouldn’t recommended for parties closer to 200, unless able to max out all tables at 10-12 guests. For couples looking for an affordable venue option without too many frills, The Shore Club offers convenience and practicality.

Merri-Makers Catering

  • Caterer
  • Serves Toms River, NJ

Our story begins in 1978 with Rick Bott, a lifetime resident of Monmouth County and recent graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, at the inception of his career at his small storefront in Red Bank, NJ. At that little shop on Monmouth Street, Rick meets Cindy, his partner in business and in life. Over the past 40 years, Rick and Cindy have had the privilege of catering over 6,000 unique and custom weddings, nurtured four children (and one grandchild!), and have led Merri-Makers to become one of the distinguished caterers in the country.

MIYC is an absolute DREAM. Gianna is incredible at her job. Her and her team went above and beyond all day and all the days leading up to the wedding. When we toured Mallard, aside from loving the venue, we loved Gianna!! She was extremely patient with all my questions (and there were a lot), putting us completely at ease that our day would be seamless. Her and her team did such an amazing job making sure everything is on schedule down to the very minute. They are truly experts in their field and made sure us and our parents were taken care of the entire day. Not to mention you get the entire estate – we had our bridal party stay in the suits upstairs so the party could keep going! MIYC’s catering is MerriMakers who is also out of this world. So many of our guests raved about all the food, especially the cocktail hour. If you’re a sushi lover - SPLURGE FOR THE SUSHI. The display was incredible and the freshness was out of this world.

I can't speak enough about how easy it was to work with everyone at 26 West. They let us tweak the menu for our rehearsal dinner, and with views of the Navesink from upstairs it was a great night. The service was spot on, and in a day and age where there is a shortage of staff, they made sure everything was taken care of. Anything that anyone else needed they were on top of.

enjoy! has been providing live music for all styles of events for close to 20 years along the Jersey Shore. The band has performed over 300 weddings in it's tenure and has carved out a unique niche in providing powerful performances for the live music lover.

We first saw Enjoy! playing a show at one of our favorite local bars the summer before our wedding and after a few songs, we knew they would be our perfect wedding band. Not only are all of the members extremely talented, but they played an awesome combination of songs that we love dearly from artists like Phish, Jimi Hendrix & Talking Heads. Once we met John and the rest of the band, we knew their personalities meshed so well with ours and it was the perfect match. They were extremely easy to work with when we planned out our song list and gave us great recommendations. When it came to the actual wedding day we were blown away! Not only did they do an awesome job on the songs we requested, they added some more that they felt would keep the party going. We still get comments on how awesome our band was to this day. We could not have picked a better group of guys and we highly recommend them to anyone who wants their music to make their wedding! And added bonus: they are great guys - a ton of fun! Any time we get the chance, we go and see their shows. Thank you guys!!!! You are the best.

MTC Photography

  • Photographer

  • Serves Toms River, NJ

I have been photographing weddings since 2008. As the wedding industry has evolved over the years so has the wedding photography aspect. Trends as in the past have long gone and newer more non traditional styles have evolved. As photographers, we have to continue to learn and hone our craft like most careers. The "MTC" stands for not only my initials but also stands for " Moments To Capture" I'd like to think that at every wedding, event, etc we are capturing moments and creating lasting memories. At the same time however, we are enjoying the day with our couples and making sure they have the best experience we can give them. Lets have fun!

I’ve worked weddings with MTC Photography since 2012 - Manny and his team are by far my favorite to work with. They respect other vendors schedules (which is rare), never invade personal space and are not only professional, but also so much fun to work with! You know the moment Manny arrives - he always livens up the room and gets everyone excited. They know how to keep everyone on track and on schedule, without creating stress. I also love how the style of the photos are timeless and true to color, which I love reposting because they really show off my work nicely (as opposed to light and airy presets). I could not recommend a better company and always recommend them to my clients.

Not enough words for Felicia & Kelli - they are so effortlessly incredible at what they do. They are both extremely genuine, honest, and patient. I met with Kelli a few times as I opted to do extensions for the big day, and every step of the way she led me in the right direction. The length, color match, and application / adjustments were such a breeze for her, highly recommend to any bride. I ended up changing my hair style & makeup look for my wedding day vs. what I had in my trial, and these two ladies are the ones to TRUST. They know what they're doing & I looked like such an elevated version of myself - not too much, not too little, but the most beautiful. I even trusted Kelli with curtain bangs the morning of - and she was SPOT. ON. My airbrush makeup looked absolutely flawless, and never needed a retouch the whole night on the dancefloor. These ladies kept everything calm, cool, & collected for everyone in my bridal party, and the hours of watching Friends & homemade iced coffees during appointments were the cherry on top (:

Working with Kevin and Jason from Wavelight Studio for our May 2023 wedding was an absolute dream!!! We are in awe of how highly professional and incredible our wedding video is. Their artistry and skill far surpassed what I could’ve envisioned - what Wavelight created for us is truly breathtaking. I can’t adequately describe the romance and tone they create- go to their Instagram now to see how exquisite their productions are. It feels like we are watching ourselves in an elegant film with storytelling that expertly captured the love we experienced that day. Kevin and Jason are THE BEST. So down-to-earth and kindhearted - they made us feel so comfortable and at ease. We could’ve enjoyed just hanging out with them all day. The experience was so organic and they captured us so naturally. They offered some gentle direction when you could see the creative wheels turning and you knew they had a beautiful vision in mind. Trust their experience. We are moved by the artistry of our wedding video and so grateful we have this to cherish forever. They are experts in their craft and such wonderful people to work with.
