Our event spaces

Porch Reception

Romantic Atmosphere

Shining Tides is gorgeous and on top of a stunning venue, the on-site wedding coordinator is a dream to work with. The location’s views are beyond dreamy and the porch with its rustic exposed beams is the perfect empty canvas. You truly can make this place your own and have the wedding of your dreams. I loved our whole experience and would completely recommend this venue, in fact we already have!

Ideal for

Wedding ceremony, Wedding reception, Rehearsal dinner, Wedding shower, Other, Fun and festive, Relaxed and casual

Beachfront Ceremony

Beautiful Views

The festivities can begin with a breezy ceremony on the mansion’s private lawn overlooking the beach or on the beach itself - couples can marry with their toes in the sand or their feet planted firmly on the fresh green lawn. In the distance, the harbor’s bright blue waters are sprinkled with white watercraft.

    Shining Tides is an absolute gem of a venue for anyone who wants a beachy wedding!! My husband and I got married on 6/28/24, and it was the best day ever! Elizabeth was incredible to work with from start to finish. She was extremely communicative, organized, knowledgeable, and friendly throughout the whole planning process. The whole day felt seamless and perfect, and our vision truly came to life. The venue itself is stunning- truly picturesque! An added bonus that Shining Tides teams with Russell Morin for catering- the food and drinks were absolutely delicious, and our guests can’t stop raving about it all! I’ve lost track as to how many people said it was the best wedding they’ve been to. Huge thank you to Elizabeth for making our day just so special!!
