The Wedding Website of Christina Smith and Mathew Harris
Bay Head is a one mile- square ocean town halfway down the coast of NJ. It's buzzy during the summer and sleepy on the off-season, but September is prime 'locals summer' (wait 'til you see golden hour!) so things still book up fast. A small beach town = limited lodging, so if you know you'll be there to celebrate with us, please book your stay ASAP as once these spots are booked, there aren't many... (any).... others!

Hotel

The Bentley Inn

694 Main Avenue
Bay Head, NJ 08742
 (732) 892-9589

The Bentley is an old-school Bay Head classic, recently renovated into a boutique inn with surf vibes. We've reserved the entire place for our weekend - 18 rooms, all double occupancy, with a great wrap-around porch and living room/entryway to hang out. Check-in at 3PM, check-out at 11AM, but give them a call and they'll try to accommodate an early check-in if you're getting into town early. A few blocks from the beach, short walk into the center of town, and .5 mile from the club!

Hotel

The Grenville Hotel

345 Main Avenue
Bay Head, NJ 08742
 (732) 892-3100

The Grenville is another historic Bay Head Inn, a few blocks in from the beach. Since tons of 'regulars' book here every year, we only have a handful of (double occupancy) in our block here, so call directly to book!

Flight

Newark Liberty International Airport

For our out-of-town (and out-of-country!) guests, Newark is a super easy 50-minute drive from Bay Head. Depending on your travel plans, options are to Uber (usually about $80 and they arrive within minutes of ordering), or to coordinate with anyone road-tripping from New England for a Newark pick-up -- it's literally ON the route for anyone coming from up North (our CT/ MA/ ME gang!), so makes for a perfectly convenient pickup en-route to the shore. If you'd like to find out if anyone else is landing OR driving through around the same time, ask us and we'll help!

House Or Rental

Airbnb/ VRBO

If you'd like a rental property for the weekend and need help/ don't see inventory that works on AirBNB/VRBO, please reach out to us and we can help! Pro trip: BH and the neighboring towns technically have a 1-week rental ordinance, but if you find a house that shows it’s available, message them to ask if they’d rent for a weekend instead for a BHYC wedding — many of them will make an exception since it’s off-season! Location- wise: Bay Head, Mantoloking + Pt. Pleasant are the ideal towns to book in.
