Perfect for a small beach wedding venue
Every time I think of our wedding day, I’m in awe of how much Peter Shields Inn and their wedding coordinator (Amy) did to make our day easy and wonderful. This is the perfect venue if you have 20 to 30 guests. I handed them a box of my decorations and they took care of setting our room up. The food was AMAZING! Best wedding food I’ve ever had hands down. Amy even walked over to beach with me a cued me up for an entrance. Cocktails and hors doeurves were on their porch area was a perfect place for our guitarist to serenade guests as we snuck a few pictures in. Sm so happy we chose this venue!
