“We hosted both our rehearsal dinner and welcome party here on a Saturday night in June of 2024 and I would book this again and again if I could! We had around 35 people for the dinner which was hosted in a semi-private area downstairs. We had salads, appetizers and then three options for meals and every option was delicious!! We then head upstairs where we hosted a welcome party for about 100 guests and the Hors d'oeuvres food served buffet style upstairs was just as good as the plated dinner we had downstairs. The dessert was also amazing!! Everyone was raving about the location and the staff helping to work the bar were so friendly. The venue was BYOB and they made it easy to drop off the alcohol ahead of time and kept it cold and restocked constantly. Everyone was so great to work with and they customized everything exactly how we wanted it. I truly can't recommend Spiaggetta enough!! We loved the food so much we went back for dinner a few days later while we staying in Stone Harbor for a few days. The location also can't be beat it is right across the street from the Reeds and within walking distance from everything in Stone Harbor!”

“We worked with ICONA Windrift over email for two years and everything was organized and easy to follow. They kept all the details in a shared Google doc which made planning stress-free. The best part? The food was incredible! Our guests couldn't stop talking about how good the food was, and everyone also loved how clean the hotel was and how convenient the location turned out to be. The waitstaff went out of their way to take care of our parents, the bar lines never got long, and the bartenders worked fast to keep drinks flowing.

“We LOVED our experience with Avalon Yacht Club. From our very first interaction with the yacht club, Jarrod created a space where we wanted to spend time with our friends and family. Jarrod and the AYC team went above and beyond to work with any and all requests that we came up with, and Jarrod truly worked the day of our wedding to ensure it was what we envisioned. The food was INCREDIBLE! We were a little worried when we initially booked as we had never eaten at the yacht club before. Their crab cakes are some of the best we've ever had, and the passed appetizers were 15/10. The AYC worked with our guests that had food allergies (shellfish, egg, beef, vegan, celiac). I cannot recommend the AYC and working with Jarrod enough!!”
