We were searching for the perfect venue to host an intimate and special wedding celebration dinner in Cape May -one of our favorite beach towns - and Peter Shields Inn exceeded every expectation. Beautifully located just across the street from the beach in Cape May, NJ, the setting alone is stunning and full of charm. They graciously accommodated our group of 30 guests in their Brides Room for a private dinner, and despite the smaller wedding size, it felt every bit as meaningful, elegant, and memorable as a larger wedding celebration. We were able to bring in our own wedding cake and have on-site photography, which made the evening feel even more personal and special. Our guests also enjoyed relaxing on the porch with cocktails while my husband and I took photos on the beach. It was such a lovely and seamless experience. The entire staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive, but the event coordinator, Amy, truly went above and beyond. She was absolutely spectacular; always prompt, thorough, and thoughtful in her communication. She connected us with outstanding local vendors: Khalil for piano, Tim Joyce for photography, Cape Winds Florist for centerpieces, and Bake Works for our cake. Every single vendor she recommended was exceptional and easy to work with.  Amy also ensured that all dietary restrictions were handled with care and kindness, and she went out of her way to help set everything up in advance so that we could simply arrive, relax, and fully enjoy our time with our loved ones. Her patience, professionalism, and genuine care made the entire process stress-free and truly enjoyable. This was truly a 10/10 experience for us. We highly recommend Peter Shields Inn to anyone looking for a beautiful, intimate, and unforgettable setting to celebrate a marriage or special occasion. It was everything we hoped for and more.

Since Willow Creek opened in 2013, I've always said this would be the most beautiful venue for a wedding. 6.3.23 I had my wedding at Willow Creek and it was more perfect then I could have imagined it all those years. The venue is obviously stunning, getting the entire grounds on the whole day to take pictures gave us time to take the most amazing pictures. From the beautiful vineyards, to the owners love for colorful landscaping, wood beams, leather couches, imported chandeliers, and pops of color throughout, this venue offers picture perfect scenery no matter where you are on the property. It is also a short drive to the beach, where we had our first looks and then had the rest of our pictures at the winery. We rented their Rose Room for an hour or two which was a great spot for the wedding party to hang and everyone to freshen up before the ceremony. We had our ceremony at the wine tasting building, which definitely makes you timeline a lot tighter, but Willow Creek has preferred vendors that are experts in working with the wineries timelines and will make sure that everything is ready to go by your start time. Hamilton is absolutely amazing. She is a quick responder to all questions and is so pleasant to work with. She made the stressful process of wedding planning a lot easier. Our guest raved about the food (the beef wellington hors d'oeuvre was a crowd favorite). And the party favors that come with your package are little wine bottles, which of course, none were left behind. Bonus: it's pet friendly through cocktail hour so we had our pup in the wedding! Willow Creek is a dream wedding venue and you wont be disappointed working with them for your big day.

The Flanders was a wonderful experience from start to finish!! We got married on New Year’s Eve and we will not be able to top any NYE to follow! Lisa and Molly were so great to work with! Molly was great with communicating all the details and answering all our questions! Lisa walked us through everything from food to table settings to order of the night. The food was PHENOMENAL! Everyone raved and still raves about the variety of food, the quality, the cocktail hour and ending the night with Taste of the Boardwalk. If you go hungry, it’s your own fault! The service there was second to none. Joanne and her staff were wonderful and were always anticipating our thoughts. We stayed at Flanders during that weekend. The Promenade suites made it so easy to get ready and access the Ballrooms. Our guests and bridal party stayed in the regular suites and loved each room! Highly recommend going with their list of recommended vendors, it makes everything so much easier. Getting married at The Flanders was always my dream and I cannot recommend it more to others!!

Awarded Best of Zola
We got married at Turkey Trac Farms in June of 2023 & I can easily say that it was the best decision we ever made. I look back at our wedding and I can truly say that I enjoyed every step of the experience because of how down-to-early, personable, and accommodating Miranda at Turkey Trac Farms is. It's so hard to find a place where you can custom plan your wedding day and have an unlimited number of options with vendors, personalization, and decor. We were able to choose our own caterer, DJ, photographer, photobooth, hair/makeup team, etc. We were allowed to bring our own decor and even had the night before to come decorate ourselves. And the best part, Miranda was there to help us every step of the way! She made sure our day went fully as planned, that we were taken care of with food and drinks throughout the night and really helped us ensure that our day would be everything we dreamed of. I cannot thank her enough for helping us create a day that we will forever remember and will forever be grateful for!

From our first meeting with Rachel at King Cole Farm, we knew we were in good hands. Rachel was outstanding throughout the entire process - from our initial visit to the day of the event and even in the days after. She always had a warm smile on her face and took care of anything that came up, no matter how big or small. Rachel put us at ease and made the entire weekend a fabulous experience. The venue itself is absolutely stunning. The beautiful scenery where the ceremony took place, the lovely cocktail hour space, and the grand barn doors that the wedding party walked through - it was all an amazing experience. There was plenty of room for the caterer, bar, desserts, late night snacks, and of course, dancing! On the day of the event, we had the pleasure of working with the intern as well. She was so kind, giving rides to the ceremony and back to the cocktail hour and house for our elderly guests. She also helped us with the cleanup at the end of the night. The entire King Cole Farm staff is truly top-notch. I am still getting phone calls, text messages and social media posts that it was the best wedding they have ever attended! I would highly recommend King Cole Farm to any couple looking for a beautiful, well-run wedding venue. We had such a wonderful experience, and I hope to use them again in the future!

We were married at Golden Sands on August 14, 2026, and honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place to celebrate our day. Our ceremony was held on the Golden Sands private beach, followed by our reception in the atrium on the 22nd floor. The atrium sells itself. It is absolutely breathtaking, and our guests were in awe the entire night looking out over the ocean. The view alone is something people will never forget. But more importantly, we’re really here to tell you about Autumn, the wedding planner at Golden Sands. Our wedding day would NOT have been what it was without her. Somewhere along the way, we left Golden Sands with a forever friend and someone we know we will never forget. From start to finish, Autumn was ON IT. God called her for this position. Every crazy vision we had, she somehow figured out how to make it happen. And she didn’t just do the typical wedding planner responsibilities..she went above and beyond in ways we never could have expected. She personally ordered and delivered Chick-fil-A nuggets for our guests as a late-night snack. She woke up early and got creative to make our Pittsburgh cookie table exactly how we envisioned it. She researched how to make our fondue machine work because she wanted to make sure our chocolate fountain was working perfectly before the wedding. She dropped everything to get me into my wedding dress to make my first look with my loved ones special. When we ran into unexpected hiccups with parking, she took the stress from us and made it hers. She helped us set up. She helped us clean up. She was there for every little detail, every question, every crazy idea, and every last minute problem. Our family and guests RAVED about her because it was so apparent how involved she was in making our day perfect. There genuinely wasn’t a thing we could have asked Autumn to help with that she wasn’t more than happy to take on. We will forever be grateful for Autumn and everything she did to make August 14, 2026 so incredibly special. Golden Sands gave us the most beautiful setting for our wedding, but Autumn is what made the experience truly unforgettable. If you’re considering getting married at Golden Sands, we truly cannot recommend their venue and especially Autumn enough. We walked away with incredible memories, a perfect wedding day, and a forever friend. And for that, we are SO thankful and blessed.

Our wedding at The Kathedral Event Center was nothing short of extraordinary. From start to finish, every single detail was executed with absolute perfection. The space itself is stunning, but what truly sets The Kathedral apart is the people behind it. Max is simply incredible—professional, kind, responsive, and genuinely invested in making your day unforgettable. He made the entire planning process seamless and stress-free, and his attention to detail ensured that everything came together flawlessly. You can tell he truly cares about each event and the people he’s working with. On the day of the wedding, his staff exceeded every expectation. They were attentive, organized, and went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. We felt completely taken care of, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment of our special day.
