We fell in LOVE with Johnson’s Locust Hall Farm from the moment we drove in! It was one of the first venues we saw and we knew we wouldn’t have to look any further. It’s an absolutely beautiful farm filled with sunflowers and wildflowers. We absolutely loved getting ready in the wonderful farm house estate right on the venue. Leading up to the wedding, Avery and the Johnson Locust Hall Farm family had great communication and were very accommodating. The day of the wedding, we literally had to worry about NOTHING. They took care of everything and they had everything planned out to a T. The cocktail hour was spectacular in the stone barn and the reception was amazing in the breezeway barn. We are SO over the moon to have gotten married here. We are so happy that we can also visit again during the fall and spring during their events & farm activities which makes it so special that we could see this gorgeous venue again. HIGHLY recommend.

My partner and I had the best experience working with Deyna Hamilton from Manayunk Brewing for our wedding reception! From the moment we booked the space a year prior, Deyna was so hands-on with us and helped with everything along the way. Every time we met, she kept us on track and helped us organize our to-do list and was such a pleasure to work with. She clearly has a ton of experience with planning and organizing events, and on the day-of, Deyna made sure we had the most carefree and fun time! The cocktail hour & reception space were perfect for my husband and I. We hosted about 80 people, so everybody had a lot of room to mingle and have drinks and dance. We chose to do stations for dinner, and they were a hit! Everybody told us how much they enjoyed the food during the cocktail hour and reception. The chef at Manayunk is very good! Deyna helped us choose all of the food in the months leading up to our reception which was also a load off our minds! We had a great time utilizing the bridal suite in the hours before our reception - it was a great space to have drinks and snacks with our family, put together some of our decor, and get ready. Deyna and the other staffers helped us tremendously by putting together the reception & cocktail hour space with all of our decorations, flowers, and photos. Deyna provided recommendations for vendors, so it was easy to choose a DJ (John Cicala from Silver Sounds) who already knew the venue! We can’t recommend Manayunk and Deyna enough. They were so wonderful to us! Thank you for everything!

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!

The Claridge Hotel was the perfect venue to celebrate my wedding! The Claridge is elegant and full of charm. The staff at the Claridge went above and beyond! Jeff did a remarkable job! He was very helpful, accommodating, and was communicative, answering every question I had promptly. He was there for me every step of the way from the tour of the Claridge to my wedding day. Lance, the banquet manager, was phenomenal! He worked tirelessly the day of my wedding, ensuring that everything was in place and ran smoothly. He was so kind in helping me envision and bring about the wedding reception of my dreams, and also kept me organized by helping me create a timeline for the day of my wedding. Curtis did a fantastic job handling guest room bookings! He stayed in communication with me until the day of my wedding, accommodating requests with ease. The bridal assistant was amazing!

My fiancé and I took our engagement photos at Resorts Casino and we had the best experience! We chose Resorts specifically for the nostalgic charm that the casino and grounds offer. Nancy, the events manager, kindly tended to all of our questions and needs before and during the shoot. She made sure we were escorted by security as she guided us to all the best spots around the casino and the rest of the building to take photos. She walked us through a beautiful ballroom to get to the balcony with an amazing view of the boardwalk and the famous Resorts sign to get incredible pictures. Lastly we were able to shoot in the lovely classic theater that we didn't even know existed and was perfect for the theme of our photos. There are a variety of options to choose from whether you're planing a wedding, engagement party, bridal shower, bachelorette party (which we saw while stayed there) or just taking photos like us. I definitely recommend Resorts Casino for an event during your wedding journey.

We had our wedding at the Flanders, and they did an incredible job! The hotel is a gorgeous venue for weddings, and from our first tour it stood out as a unique location that would look great in our photos. The food was excellent; we especially enjoyed the dim sum station at our cocktail hour. Our guests gave rave reviews about their meals. Lisa and Molly were great coordinators who assured us throughout the whole planning process that everything would go smoothly - and then made it happen! Being an obsessive planner myself, and doing all my decorations myself, I put together a binder of my plans for how each piece should be displayed. Lisa and Molly took that with grace, asked questions where needed, and made it happen! Joanne was an amazing maitre d' who anticipated our every need. She ensured that the day went perfectly, starting with the moment we walked down the aisle and she gave us some hints for scoring the best photos. She had also clearly read our binder. I was especially impressed when we came out of our ceremony and she had a platter of drinks ready for us and our wedding party while the marriage certificates were being signed. She was able to make a lighting change in one of our decorations happen while we were decompressing after the ceremony. During our Farewell Breakfast the next day, she coordinated packing away our homemade decorations, allowing us to enjoy the event without stress. Overall, the day went perfectly. It really is true that the best-laid plans will only succeed with a good team, and I feel strongly that we made an excellent choice in trusting this team for our wedding.

TLDR Fantastic day of coordinator and staff Food is still being raved about Dry town doesn't mean dry wedding Add the Pent House for getting ready and night after Amazing value perfect for 50-70 guests I truly can not say enough nice things about the port o call hotel and staff. We had a beautiful wedding on the beach and then came into the hotel for the reception. The views from the dinning room are amazing. K (Food and beverage manager/day of coordinator) was absolutely amazing to work with. I could always reach him when needed and he made the entire event run smoothly. He even helped to fix a few last minute disasters due to my lack of planning. The servers Savannah, Sierra, and Sarah were so attentive. No one ever had an empty plate or glass. The appatizers just kept coming. We did the pasta station for cocktail hour and it was such a hit. Guests kept going up for kids and no one panic ate. Usually wedding food is kind of meh. We did a tasting with my mom and MOH and when I tasted the steak... Oh my gosh I was day dreaming about it. So many guest raved an raved about the food. They were accommodating of gluten free, allergies, vegan/vegetarian guests. The girls even remembered peoples preferences from breakfast the morning before. All of my guests felt special and pampered. The port o call delivered that resort wedding feel that I was hoping for. If you're considering Ocean City NJ for your wedding I 10000% say pick here!! My pro tip is add the Pent house. We had so much room for getting ready and having breakfast. Even my videographer was impressed. He said this was the best getting ready space he'd ever seen. Multiple bathrooms a kitchen just made everything so much less cramped and we had a good stress free flow. The night after it was so romantic to sit on the porch and then get cozy by the fire. Im so so glad we added it on and plan to return for anniversaries.
