    From the moment we booked Pier 22 for our wedding, the staff was incredibly responsive, amazing, and kind. The venue itself has an incredible value, with the beautiful waterfront setting making us feel like we were in Italy rather than Florida. The food was absolutely delicious, and the staff went above and beyond in making our special day feel truly magical. Hannah in particular was an absolute joy to work with, going above and beyond in ensuring every detail was perfect. We are so grateful to the entire Pier 22 team for helping to make our wedding day the best day of our lives.

    Pier 22 was amazing to work with! Kim Straw does a great job of streamlining the process and understanding your vision. We used Pier 22 for food, bar, linens and flatware. The food was spectacular, guests kept returning to the tenderloin carving station, the signature cocktails and open were a highlight and the special funfetti cake was to die for! Couldn’t say enough great things about Pier 22 and our experience with them from day one until our wedding day!!

    Pier 22 is an amazing location. Their customer service is second to none. The food was fantastic and the attention to detail on our big day was flawless. We held our wedding reception in the Grand Ballroom during sunset. The views were stunning and the staff was attentive and friendly. The whole experience was amazing and we could not have asked for more!
