I know what you’re thinking — isn’t that a restaurant? It is, but it’s also one of the most amazing wedding venues you could ever dream of. From the very first meeting, you’ll work with Judy, the event manager, and let me tell you, she is a true rockstar. Judy doesn’t just help plan your day; she makes the impossible possible. Every idea I threw her way, no matter how out-of-the-box, she brought to life. I wanted a roaming cannoli bar — I got it. I wanted drinks served out of a canoe and a freshly shucked oyster bar — I got those too. Nothing was too big, too small, or too complicated for her. She is hands down one of the hardest-working, most detail-oriented people you will ever meet. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. It wasn’t just your standard “wedding food” — it was fresh, flavorful, and truly unique to the Deauville experience. Weeks later, our guests are still raving about how it was some of the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding. And the location itself? Unmatched. There’s something so magical about being right on the water — it feels both relaxed and elegant at the same time. When I first toured, Judy told me, “The night will already be memorable because of the location.” She couldn’t have been more right. Between the setting sun, the ocean breeze, and the warm glow of the venue, it was beyond anything I could have imagined. It was, without a doubt, the most amazing venue we could have ever chosen. 10/10 recommend — if you’re even considering it, stop thinking and just book it.

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!!

Oh my goodness where do I begin?! The experience of having our wedding at Resorts Casino has been nothing short of amazing. Nancy is an absolute treasure and pleasure to work with from start to finish. With the help of Anthony they turned our magical day into an absolute dream that not only we enjoyed but all of our guest. We had a serious loss in our family two months before our wedding and Nancy took a lot of weight off of our shoulders and came up with solutions to help us get through the day. Nancy and he team are there for you every step of the way and make you feel like royalty, treating you like gold. In a historic place like Resorts casino is a great place to have a wedding for not only the old school Atlantic City feel but the food and hospitality is out of this world. The chef created food that had our family and friends talking days after the wedding. We will forever have this wonderful memory of our wedding day and it is all because of Nancy, Anthony, and Resorts Casino for making our dreams come true. There is a true love for them all!

I recently got married at the Chalfonte Hotel this past June. It was the most magical day. From the serene beauty of the Willow Tree garden to the simple elegance of the Magnolia Room, everything about the day was perfect. Of course, everyone loved having cocktail hour on the porch, which is personally my favorite part of the hotel. Even before and after the wedding family and friends loved getting together on the porch, having a cocktail, and just enjoying Cape May. I cannot begin to express how kind and amazing the staff are at the Chalfonte. Planning a wedding can definitely feel overwhelming but Ellie was so helpful and communicative every step of the way. Any ideas that we had about how we wanted the day to go she was so receptive to. She made sure that everything we had envisioned was there on our wedding day. If you want a wedding somewhere that is naturally beautiful, fun, and perfectly located, I highly recommend booking you wedding at the Chalfonte Hotel.

Choosing Swan Lake Resort as our wedding venue was one of the best decisions we made. Not only is the location absolutely gorgeous—peaceful, intimate, and perfect for the kind of small wedding we envisioned—but it also came with the incredible bonus of having Lauren Dabney as our wedding coordinator. From our very first interaction, Lauren was outstanding. She was warm, responsive, organized, and genuinely cared about making our day perfect. Throughout the planning process, she kept everything simple, stress-free, and smooth—exactly what I had hoped for. Her communication was always timely, and she made sure every detail was thought through. Nothing was overlooked. On the big day, Lauren truly delivered. The setup was flawless, the flow of the day was seamless, and she managed everything with a calm, professional presence and a constant smile on her face. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing—she had it all under control, which allowed us to truly relax and soak in every moment. Our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more, and a huge part of that is thanks to Lauren and the beautiful setting at Swan Lake Resort. I truly can’t say enough good things about the entire experience. If you’re looking for a stunning venue with top-tier support, we highly recommend Swan Lake and Lauren Dabney.

This was a dream wedding venue and team. We held cocktail hour upstairs, dinner and dancing under the beautiful tent! Alyssa was an absolute pleasure to work with! She always had the calmest, positive and open delivery throughout each step of a stressful wedding process. She made the process much easier and really worked with us to address all of our questions and needs throughout the year of planning. During our last visit, Alyssa had the best ideas for design and layout. These ideas really made our photos stand out. The chef, Joey, was truly unbelievable. All of our guests said best food at a wedding and better yet, best food in general! Both Joey and Alyssa were so helpful coming up with interesting menu ideas. The staff- every single bartender and waiter was on it! No cup was empty, no one was waiting on their food, all allergies were correctly listened to. Not only was the service amazing, but they all were happy to be there, adding positive energy to our big day. I can't recommend Alyssa and her team enough! Thank you!!! XO

We cannot say enough amazing things about our experience at Renault! From the moment we signed the contract with Chloe, everything was seamless. Planning our rehearsal dinner with Rylee was just as easy — and then came the big weekend, which truly exceeded all our expectations. Jon and Natasha were absolutely incredible. They went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect, and we felt so supported the entire time. The whole team was fantastic — kind, professional, and always willing to help or accommodate in any way they could. Our wedding was truly perfect, and we couldn’t have done it without such an amazing team behind us. Special shoutout to Jon and Natasha for being the absolute best — we’re so grateful! The only thing that didn't go as planned was they cancelled the fire works the week of the wedding and given that we were getting married on 4th of July we were super excited but other than that it was amazing. Can’t wait to come back and visit. Thank you again for everything!

Our 35,000-square-foot clubhouse serves as the heart of our resort, featuring a variety of amenities including restaurants, a pro shop, outdoor spaces, and an incredible view of the Atlantic City skyline.

I don’t even know where to begin! Our wedding was 5/18/25 but we planned it for over a year and a half. From the beginning, Stephanie was so warming and really drew us into the beautiful venue as it was still under renovation. She made the booking process so simple and showed us nothing but kindness. In the midst of the waiting period of planning, Caitlin became the new venue coordinator who was our go to girl for everything. Anything I threw at her, wanted to change, or was concerned about, Caitlin handled with happiness and ease. She answered a million and one emails from me, met with me multiple times and really helped my vision come to life. I can’t say enough about her because Caitlin really did run the show from the moment we began working together to the very end of our wedding weekend. She helped plan and organize our rehearsal dinner, morning after brunch, and stuck by our sides from the morning of our wedding to the end of our after party (at 2 am the following morning). She was involved in every single step of the decorating and events that took place on our wedding day and I don’t know how would it have all been executed without her. Caitlin is the real MVP of our wedding and I can’t thank her enough for all of the help and kindness she showed toward myself, my husband, and our families. Like I said, anything I threw at her, she handled and took care of with a smile. She really is the best The rest of the staff, Scott, Maddie, and Avery were amazing during our wedding weekend as well. Scott was so kind and helped my family in any way possible with the room bookings and Maddie and Avery also stuck aside mine and my husband’s side to make sure we were okay throughout the day. The staff was all in all, so attentive, kind, and helpful throughout the entire wedding day. Anything we needed, they were all there to help. As far as the wedding, guests are still raving about how beautiful the grounds were and how delicious all of the food was. The bartenders and servers were all so amazing as well. I cannot recommend and thank everybody at LBI National enough for the most amazing wedding day we could have.

The Winding Woods Venue was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, their communication style was friendly, informative, and made the entire planning process a breeze. The venue itself is worth far more than the reasonable price they charge - the space has such an amazing homey and cozy atmosphere that all of our guests commented on. The team was incredibly helpful, coordinating the day-of timeline seamlessly and even lending a hand with setting up and breaking down our decor. Their professionalism and attention to detail really shone through during the rehearsal as well. We couldn't have asked for a better venue and highly recommend The Winding Woods to any couple looking for a special, memorable wedding day.

*Please note, we booked Cedar Run for the ceremony only* One of the biggest takeaways we received from our wedding was how much everybody liked the ceremony. The beautiful view of the amphitheatre on the lake was absolutely gorgeous, and the weather held up beautifully! We paid extra for the animal ambassadors to make an appearance and it was worth every penny because they were a huge hit with wedding guests. We booked our reception hall first, so we needed a place that would allow us to do only our ceremony, and Cedar Run was the only place nearby that was affordable and actually gave us additional amenities for the cost. Not to mention your donation goes towards the upkeep of the facility and helping out the animals! We were also very big on having a backup plan just in case of inclement weather and they have at least two facilities that could work during rain. The lake, bridge, and woods all make for beautiful shots as you can see. The staff was great to work with and the animals are the cherry on top. Photo Credit: Cyan Blue Photography

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!
