“From rehearsal to wedding day the amazing staff at Bay Pointe Inn just killed it. As a wedding vendor myself they are definitely going on my referral list for all of my clients. The food was absolutely amazing - all of my guests are calling me to rave about it! Madison and her team blew Josh and I away - especially the accommodations for our kiddos! Cannot recommend them enough.”
