    While planning an off-season wedding on Fire Island is daunting, Jim, Drew and the whole Maguire's crew made it easy! Quick responses, and really worked with us to deliver exactly what we wanted for our big day - even with some ridiculous requests. The food was incredible, setup was better, and the vibe was one that our friends and family STILL talk about to this day....6 years later! I actually can't write enough good things about this venue. It was the best day of our life, pulled off effortlessly. My husband and I are actually already planning to do a 10-year anniversary party there - at our guests' requests! We love Maguire's, and the view is not so bad either ;).
