The Point at Norwalk Cove was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, the team was attentive, personal, and quick to respond to all of our questions. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful - with an outdoor, tented, beachfront space that was ideal for our summer celebration. The ceremony backdrop of the beach was breathtaking, and the hydrangeas were in full bloom around the property. We loved watching the boats out on the water as we danced the night away.

If you want a PARTY, book this venue. They have multiple rooms at this venue you can book depending on your headcount. We booked the Majestic Room on the top floor for 75 people. They also have the Swan Room that can fit over 150 people or something like that. The whole second floor was dedicated to our event. Here are some of the features it had that just makes sense functionally: we had a bridal suite that fit our whole bridal party and parents, an elevator since it was on the second floor, a grand staircase, our own bathrooms and bar separate from the downstairs area, a built-in dance floor, and a welcome landing. We had to bring minimal decorations, like centerpieces and such. They provide table settings, everything in the bar, name cards, and table numbers. We suggest finding a vendor for uplighting. Our DJ provided it for us and made the room look amazing. The food is fancy and delicious. In the days that followed our reception, we received compliments about the entrees and passed hors d’oeuvres. They are plated like an inspired high-end restaurant. We had an open bar and everyone was very pleased with the service. TLDR: these people know what they’re doing. The space is BUILT for weddings, not retrofitted, and it shows. The service is WHITE GLOVE and the food will impress your guests. Book this venue!

I just got married at this venue on 8/31/25. I was the second wedding after all the renovations made, and I had the absolute pleasure of working with Mirian and Meg. If i can rate them & their staff alone it would be 10 stars. They were so attentive, helpful, professional, and kind. They didn’t only treat me (the bride) or the groom this way, they treated everyone with the utmost respect and amazing service. Sofia was in my care, who was the sweetest person and did everything for me that day. Meg was my maître d and she was so attentive and fun to be around. She pulled strings to make sure i got the most insane pictures and i couldn’t be more grateful that i had someone as great as her attending to me and my new husband! Mirian was the head person in charge before the wedding and she made everything so easy! She dealt with my vendors and made everything possible. she made sure my vision came to life and i really appreciate everything she did for me and my fiance as she made it possible. We met with her two weeks before the wedding, she helped me organize everything and even gave me very cute last minute ideas!! Meg and Mirian were the best two people to deal with i recommend anyone getting married here to push for them for their wedding day too. You know you have amazing staff too when your whole wedding and wedding party know them by name and mention that they loved them. The food was TO DIE FOR!! at one point after pictures, meg and sofia made sure me and my husband sat down for a moment to eat, which was super helpful and thoughtful. The food was amazing, everyone complimented it. Everyone raved about how good the meat carving station, seafood and pasta stations were. Everyone raved about the entrees and dessert as well. I cannot wait to go back and visit this place. It was so special, the vibe, overlooking the water. it made my fairytale wedding come to life. It wasn’t only the venue, it was definitely the people who worked there. Mirian and Meg, thank you so very much for making my wedding so memorable for me, my husband, and our whole family.

We could not have had a better wedding experience and a huge part of that is due to the amazing staff at the Pavilion. Emily helped us every step of the way. She answered all of the many questions I had, organized our tasting, did our final meeting with us where we went over all of the details and assured us that we were in good hands. On the day of, Tarek and Sabrina were hands down the best. They were there to help us with anything we needed and were checking in on us frequently. They provided us with food and drinks too. Sabrina and Cece were super helpful bustling my dress, and could not have been kinder to all. The staff packed up food for me and my new husband to enjoy. They were incredible with set up and clean up too! I got to pick up all of my things the morning after and Tarek even helped me load the car! If how the staff is hasn’t convinced you enough, you cannot beat the location. We had the best weather, perfect sunset, and views that no one could resist taking a picture of. Our wedding day was truly the best day and an unforgettable one. The guests raved about the beautiful views, the kind staff, and the DELICIOUS food (go Chef Ethan!). Truly the best venue around!

Let me start by saying it’s been almost 2 weeks since our wedding at Stonebridge and Matt and I are still on a high! What made us love Stonebridge was the openness of the ballroom with all the beautiful windows. It didn’t feel like your typical ballroom, it felt open and airy. We started the planning process with the lovely Diana who made us feel so comfortable. Whether it was planning details or asking questions, we always left conversations with Diana feeling so excited! She really brings the energy and makes you feel so special. She has an eye for what works, what doesn’t and gives you the best tips and tricks. We are so grateful we had Diana throughout this process!! I HIGHLY recommend getting ready at Stonebridge’s beautiful, gigantic bridal suite the morning of the wedding. My mom, bridesmaids, flower girls and I were so obsessed with all the space to get ready, multiple bathrooms, bedrooms and the windows (they brought in so much light the pictures are amaaaaazing!) I had 3 girls doing our hair and 4 girls doing makeup, my mom and I, 14 bridesmaids, 1 MOH, and 2 flowers girls and we had more than enough room to get ready. Since we had an army of girls I loved that we were able to get there early. We were greeted by Dee the bridal attendant who made sure we had a smooth, fun morning. She was very attentive to us girls and ready with champagne whenever! Terrence is the MAN! Best maitre d hands down. He made sure everything ran smoothly with timing and always kept us hydrated with drinks and water on the dance floor. He truly brings the energy and makes sure you have the best day! We had so much fun with him! Diana, Terrence, Dee and the wait staff truly made our day feel like a dream! They went above and beyond and made sure every detail no matter how big or small was cared for. We are forever grateful for the most perfect day. Our family and friends raveddddd about the delicious food, cocktail room, ballroom and just overall how warm and beautiful Stonebridge was. THANK YOU STONEBRIDGE!

I had my wedding at Anthony’s Ocean View. It was amazing and well worth every penny. Brian and Marcello are the best! I will say, the only negative aspect is that I was under the impression that only 1 wedding happened at a time - there was another wedding happening right next to us. This impacted our music, our photos and my speech was cut off because the other weddings music was so loud that the floor vibrated and I had to ask staff to do something. Other than that, the venue was beautiful, so accommodating, and food was absolutely fantastic. Would recommend Anthony’s to anyone.

Jennifer did a great job of helping us envision our wedding day, and thoroughly explained all of their package deals to help us stay within our budget. Throughout the entire process, Jennifer was so helpful and answered every single question that we had (and we had a lot!). She was always available, right up to the day of the wedding. We were able to meet some vendors during the seasonal showcases that the venue has, and we were able to taste the food and drink at a tasting closer to the date of the wedding. Leading up to the wedding, Mike Langis, the maître-d' reached out and coordinated a drop off meeting with us to drop off all of our decorations and day of items for the wedding. Mike was so incredibly kind and accommodating and made us feel at ease that he would be on the ball the day of. He absolutely was, as well as the rest of the staff at the venue. Mike helped put out all of our decorations in the morning, helped rearrange items from the ceremony to the reception, and was even able to quickly and quietly remedy a situation where we forgot a few boxes of favors, without interrupting any of the festivities of the day. He ran the entire rehearsal with the wedding party for the ceremony that we opted to have on site and connected our playlists to the venue speakers for cocktail hour and after party. Any requests that we had for coordination of the entire day was fantastically handled by Mike! We also paid to have use of the bridal suite for the entire morning, and Natalie was our bridal attendant. She was excellent, steaming my entire wedding gown, bringing drinks and food to us in the bridal suite, and helped carry my dress, drinks and food during photos. We were told that we had the A-Team between Mike and Natalie, and that couldn't have been more true! So many of our guests told us how exceptional the staff was for food and bar service as well. Everyone was so impressed by the beauty of the venue, the quality of the food and drinks, and the professionalism of the staff. We were so fortunate to have found the Mansion at Oyster Bay, because it honestly had everything that we were looking for on our wedding day. If you are looking for a beautiful venue with exceptional staff, has flexible options and packages to help you stay within budget, and is experienced in hosting weddings, this is definitely the place for you!

Whitby Castle was the perfect venue for our wedding. The views are breathtaking, the interior is magical and the food I got nothing but compliments on. From the moment we first reached out, Niki’s communication was prompt and professional, putting our minds at ease throughout the entire planning process. All of my questions were answered and I went into the Wedding day, feeling at ease. On the day of the wedding Rosa and Roxy were absolutely amazing and I couldn’t have asked for a better bridal attendant and maître D. They were phenomenal in ensuring our special day went off without a hitch. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and we are so grateful to the entire Whitby Castle team for making our wedding day truly unforgettable.

The setting was absolutely beautiful and created the perfect backdrop for our special day. Cindy and the entire 650 crew were phenomenal! Their attention to detail and commitment to making our day perfect was evident in everything they did. I wish I had more time to give each of them a hug for their incredible work!

Overall, we are happy with our wedding day. The Mansion is in the process of being renovated/restored and so far it is looking beautiful! The hotel rooms were recently updated and guests were happy with them. The food was also FANTASTIC! (All of our guests were raving about all of the food). They clearly are a well oiled machine when it comes to throwing weddings. We also had our welcome dinner there the night before, which went amazingly and there was so much food everyone was happy! However, there were a few hiccups that bothered us considering how much money is put into having a wedding & how this venue does weddings all.the.time. so expectations are high. In the planning process, the event coordinator position was replaced 3 times in the year we were planning our wedding with them, the last replacement being the week before our wedding. The final replacement did not have any of our vendor info or cake selections and called me 4 days before my wedding about it (...scary). It must've been a miscommunication from the coordinator prior to her, as that girl never responded to any of our emails; I'm sure she did not keep any notes. The current coordinator also could not answer simple questions our friends/family asked her and was very pushy. On our wedding day, I was paired with a Maitre D who was very sweet, but I'm not sure about her "years" of experience that she claimed to have. While taking photos with our photographer she wasn't paying attention and wasn't fixing my dress/veil every time wind blew it out of place so the photographer had to leave his place each time to fix it himself (it was a windy day so this happened a lot). The photographer also asked her to assist in a "veil toss" shot and she ripped the veil from my head, yanking my head back, when she was just supposed to toss it up in the air. It hurt and pulled on my hair style that was supposed to last all night. I mentioned before the food was excellent, and the Chef is incredible. However, when we booked our venue last year, we were adamant about wanting a real wedding cake--not a fake one you cut one slice into for pictures. We were told by one of the event planners there that all tiers were going to be real cake, but during our cake cutting, we cut into styrofoam...it was disappointing. The cake they served was delicious, but we thought we were paying for a real cake because we were told it would be 100% real. We probably would not have booked this venue had we known we'd get a fake cake; it was something my dad made sure to ask at every venue we checked out, it was important to him. Additionally, some rude comments were overheard by our guests made by various staff members about our wedding. As a business owner whose business is to also provide a service, that is absolutely unacceptable, especially while on the job where people can hear you. Jazmin, the Chef, and the front desk ladies were very pleasant and professional to work with, but no one else there seemed to know what they were doing. It ended up working out but again, with how many weddings this place throws, you'd expect a better level of professionalism.

We could not be more happy with how our wedding turned out at Mamaroneck Beach and Yacht Club. There are so many things that make this venue special. The service, the scenery, the food, and the run of show were all spectacular. The service. We received attentive and detailed service throughout the entire planning process. The director of events, Bob, answered all of our emails promptly and with detail. He is a wonderful man who goes above and beyond to make sure that we were thoroughly satisfied and feeling well taken care of. Bob was so fantastic at helping us come up with solutions to challenges that emerged at different stages of the planning process, and we couldn’t have pulled off the party we wanted without his patience, thoughtfulness, and support. On the day of, we were made to feel so special by all the staff at MBYC. We were given a personal “bridal attendant” who followed us around all day and attended to any needs we had that came up- like holding my bouquet during photos, getting us fresh drinks, grabbing some items from the bridal suite. All of our guests were telling us how impressed they were by the level of service and consideration they received from all the staff. Everyone was kind, professional, and in great spirits. The scenery. The venue space at MB&YC is truly RIGHT on the water! It is so incredibly gorgeous. The cocktail hour is on a beautiful deck over the water. The reception is in a ballroom with giant windows facing the water. The space does not need much more decoration to feel special. It is elegant and special, yet practical, home-y, and not at all stuffy. The food. We were so impressed by the food. Typically wedding food is basic and mass produced, but every dish at MB&YC felt special. We had so many friends after the wedding recounting their favorite bites throughout the night. The mac and cheese bites as well as the New York Strip Steak were definitely crowd pleasers. Not only was the food plentiful, but it was all also incredibly tasty. Bob and his staff also made sure to take care of our guests with dietary restrictions. Everyone ate well at our wedding. The run of show. Bob and his team were working very hard the evening of our wedding to ensure the schedule was kept and everything went as planned. Leading up to the event, Bob heard all of our concerns and desires, and he was able to execute a fabulous event the evening of our wedding. I was never once concerned that something was missing or forgotten, I trusted Bob and I knew he was going to make sure we had a perfect night. Overall, definitely book your wedding here at MB&YC! We can’t speak highly enough about our special day here!

The Estate is such a beautiful space. When we booked about 2 years ago, we were nervous with the outdated look to it but ultimately thought the rooms were so big and would fit a big wedding. Over that time, they updated so much and it transformed the rooms it feels so open and airy in there. Jennifer was amazing throughout the whole process. She answered all of my questions so quickly. It gave me so much calm knowing I would have an answer within an hour. The day before we met with Tony who was our Maitre D. He is very obviously very experienced. He took all 1,645 bins of things I had and made sure everything was set. He made me so excited and took away my anxiety. Sweet Marylou was an angel. Marylou was our bridal attendant and oh my goodness she really made the day so lovely. She helped reapply my lipstick after dinner, fixed my bustle, made sure I ate and had a drink. We were so thankful to her. She said something my husband will never forget. “My wedding day was the absolute happiest days of my life and I am lucky enough to be a part of everyone else’s happiest day. Cherish each other” We will never forget them because they made it so wonderful. Every guest said they were never hungry or thirsty. The service was wonderful and there was not an issue in sight. We were so so pleased we chose The Estate as our venue. Thank you guys for everything!

We got married 1/5/25 but had been working with Miriam for probably a year and a half before our big day. She was always so personable with us a treated us like family. Words cannot describe the love and care we felt from Jake, our maître D and Samantha, our bridal attendant, on our wedding day. We were cared for tediously and effortlessly. We felt like at ease, happy and totally relaxed. I needed Samantha and didn’t even know it, I am forever indebted to her - she could not have been more attentive and wonderful. Comforting me, assuring me, getting me where I need to be and when. So friendly, kind and amazing. Thank god for Jake. He is so special and we’re so lucky we got him as our maître D. He deems himself as a “yes man” and he is not lying. Anything you could have ever wanted from him, he’d deliver. We wanted for nothing, had wonderful direction from him all night and he took care of EVERYTHING!  The night was flawless, amazing, perfect and all we could have ever hoped for. The staff at Bourne is unmatched, we made the right choice with this venue. Guests will be in awe of the venue and talk about the food for years to come. I wish I could do it all again. Thank you Bourne mansion & staff for the best night of our lives! I don’t have all my pics back yet!
