    Recently had a summer wedding at Pier Suite and while the overall experience was wonderful, there were a few aspects that left us with mixed feelings. First and foremost, the day itself was amazing! I got to marry the love of my life on a very special day! The atmosphere was beautiful, and the staff worked hard to ensure everything went smoothly. However, we did encounter some minor issues that are worth mentioning. The venue felt a bit cramped, especially during peak moments. For a full Saturday, you must pay for the full 12 hours, and for the price - the space is not worth it. Understand you're essentially paying for the beach aesthetic/view. For a larger gathering, the space could have been more accommodating. Ideally, 60-90 guests can fit "comfortably". Additionally, considering the pricing, we expected a bit more room to move around comfortably. One thing that caught us off guard was the presence of cameras inside the building. While we understand the need for security, it felt intrusive at times, especially during intimate moments of the reception. Parking was another concern. There was no designated area for guests, which made it difficult for some attendees to find a spot nearby. This added unnecessary stress on what should have been a carefree day. Lastly, I was disappointed by how the venue owners handled an unfortunate situation involving a guest with autism. Rather than showing understanding and support during a moment of distress, Michelle/Laura threatened to call the police. "Emotional responses that reflect privilege".....This response was not only inappropriate but also created an uncomfortable environment for everyone involved after a beautiful day. In summary, while the wedding day was beautiful and memorable, the venue had its drawbacks. With some adjustments, it could truly be a fantastic place for celebrations

    For a more accurate description of what occurred at this event, please check our reply to this review on the knot. For some reason Zola will not let me post my full review to accurately describe what occurred. Thank you! Thank you for your review. Feedback is always so important to us. We feel many of your suggestions are things to consider when booking our venue. Especially, during the high season of summer. Of course, we always take the time to mention to our clients ways they can have an easier experience during the summer months when the island is busiest, to avoid traffic concerns, as much as possible. In regards to the space, we also like to mention, we do provide our clients with the ability to arrange the room as they wish to feel most comfortable with the amount of guests they have attending. However, your feedback is appreciated! In addressing your most serious concern, unfortunately, this app is not allowing us to respond fully and address the intensity of the situation mentioned in this review. Please see our appropriate and full response on the knot. The situation she mentions was a highly unsafe situation between two large gentlemen. It is not mandatory to discuss disability status with vendors, however, this information may have been helpful given how unsafe and potentially dangerous this situation could have been for them as well as others. It’s unfortunate Zola is saying we can not post our original reply. We felt we handled it as appropriately as we could, given the circumstances and information at the time. It is always our greatest interest to keep our guests and property safe from harm at all times. In saying that, addressing your concern with cameras being in the space. This is exactly why we have them. They are not in any of the private areas of the space, such as the bathrooms, bridal suite, etc. But they are in the main parts of the building. If something had happened or one of those gentlemen got hurt, and the police needed to see what happened, those cameras help protect you as well as us, to ensure accurate documentation is taken. Again, thank you for your review. It always helps. We appreciate the feedback to help keep our venue running as well as possible, providing the best events for our clients. We’re happy to know, however, you still had an amazing day and everything overall went well. That’s our biggest goal for all our guests!

    We loved having our wedding/reception at the Pier Suite Venue. The staff were very responsive throughout the planning process and helped make our vision a reality. The ballroom has fantastic views of the harbor and city skyline. The venue also felt like a great value given the beautiful waterfront location and impeccable service. The event coordinators worked seamlessly with our other vendors and kept everything running smoothly on our big day. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect reception venue and highly recommend the Pier Suite!

  • Gorgeous venue for my wedding!!!

    Pier Suite Events was the most perfect wedding venue for my big day! The only reason I deducted a star, was because we had zero parking for guests reserved and it caused us time issues as well as a very small bridal area. Otherwise, the staff was easy to work with and the setting was large, accommodating, and beautiful!
