We had our wedding in the ballroom. Very scenic and beautiful venue! Overall a pretty good venue that includes food, tables, chairs, linens, etc. The ballroom house itself is beautiful with lots of light indoors due to the large windows, and a nice deck for an outside ceremony. Zoe communicated with us and answered all our questions and did our tasting and planning, until a week before the actual day where we were assigned a day of coordinator. I found this system to be not great, since the day of coordinator was essentially a stranger that you've never talked to at all, and you basically have to re explain everything you want. Even though they have an online planning tool (which is old and outdated), I found that they got our aisle directions wrong, the reception layout wrong, and our dinner meals were wrong. Thankfully, we had a separate planner that was able to correct these things, so I recommend getting an outside coordinator that works directly with you if you have room in the budget. Another thing was our limited setup time of 1.5 hours meaning the florist and other vendors couldn't set up earlier with more elaborate decorations and had to do something simple. I found out that this is because they had another wedding at the same place before ours (literally ending at 4) and so they rush to get the place cleaned for the evening wedding. The main room and the suit was renovated, but the bathrooms were all still dingy and not the best/cleanest to use. The food was good though, better than we had at our tasting and they got it out fast. Our vendors were fed the same food, and our guests thought it was pretty good wedding food. Apart from the couple hiccups we had, we thought the venue was great overall and really beautiful and we don't regret having our wedding there at all. It could be a little bit better in the small details for the price though.

Ocean Pines, MD

Situated on the Isle of Wight Bay, the Ocean Pines Yacht Club features a spacious second-story ballroom with hardwood floors, separate groom and bridal suites, a private bar, and stunning view of the Ocean City skyline. The large outdoor patio is perfect for waterfront ceremonies.

The Ocean Pines Yacht Club made my dream wedding come true. Lia was a true rockstar! The staff was professional and attentive. The food and drink was great. The bridal suite was perfect for my girls and I to get ready. The only nit-picking thing I would say was that the filet mignon temperatures were very uneven. Yet, one person told me that the crabcake was the best they ever had.

Willow Creek Farm & Winery 

5.0

Cape May, NJ
  • Up to 350 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $26,925

Picture yourself among sweeping rows of grapevines as our vineyard vistas provide the perfect backdrop for your wedding day. Our team of event specialists work seamlessly with you to create your perfect wedding – one that is both unique and memorable. From a rustic Cape May beach wedding to an opulent affair, Willow Creek does it all flawlessly. Our wedding packages can include such amenities as horse-drawn carriages for grand entrances and exits, exceptional culinary menus, a 12,000 sq. ft. Grand Tasting Room to host your rehearsal dinner or wedding reception, and even boutique hotel accommodations for the wedding party at our sister property in Cape May, The Southern Mansion or our newly renovated AirBnb properties. Want photo ops? From scenic vineyard vistas to lush landscaped gardens to our unique life-sized Alice in Wonderland fantasy chessboard, we have them in abundance to make your wedding a truly magical experience.

Since Willow Creek opened in 2013, I've always said this would be the most beautiful venue for a wedding. 6.3.23 I had my wedding at Willow Creek and it was more perfect then I could have imagined it all those years. The venue is obviously stunning, getting the entire grounds on the whole day to take pictures gave us time to take the most amazing pictures. From the beautiful vineyards, to the owners love for colorful landscaping, wood beams, leather couches, imported chandeliers, and pops of color throughout, this venue offers picture perfect scenery no matter where you are on the property. It is also a short drive to the beach, where we had our first looks and then had the rest of our pictures at the winery. We rented their Rose Room for an hour or two which was a great spot for the wedding party to hang and everyone to freshen up before the ceremony. We had our ceremony at the wine tasting building, which definitely makes you timeline a lot tighter, but Willow Creek has preferred vendors that are experts in working with the wineries timelines and will make sure that everything is ready to go by your start time. Hamilton is absolutely amazing. She is a quick responder to all questions and is so pleasant to work with. She made the stressful process of wedding planning a lot easier. Our guest raved about the food (the beef wellington hors d'oeuvre was a crowd favorite). And the party favors that come with your package are little wine bottles, which of course, none were left behind. Bonus: it's pet friendly through cocktail hour so we had our pup in the wedding! Willow Creek is a dream wedding venue and you wont be disappointed working with them for your big day.
