Since Willow Creek opened in 2013, I've always said this would be the most beautiful venue for a wedding. 6.3.23 I had my wedding at Willow Creek and it was more perfect then I could have imagined it all those years. The venue is obviously stunning, getting the entire grounds on the whole day to take pictures gave us time to take the most amazing pictures. From the beautiful vineyards, to the owners love for colorful landscaping, wood beams, leather couches, imported chandeliers, and pops of color throughout, this venue offers picture perfect scenery no matter where you are on

We worked with Angel to build our dream wedding, and cannot be more thankful to have found her and La Mer. Such a beautiful venue, they are so helpful and easy to work with. Cannot thank her enough for making such a stressful planning task a breeze, and allowing us to enjoy the best times of our lives!

The Grand Hotel of Cape May was an excellent choice for our wedding venue. From the very beginning, their communication was prompt, efficient, and incredibly helpful as we planned the big day. The value we received was fantastic - the food was absolutely delicious and the location right on the beach was breathtaking. From the time we signed the contract to the day of the wedding, the staff went above and beyond with personal touches and over-the-top service that made our celebration feel truly special. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to host our special day. Katlyn

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

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

We could not have been happier with the wedding reception at the Chalfonte Hotel.  It was a dream come true for our daughter and son-in-law. The food was fabulous, the Magnolia Room was so elegant and the exterior of the hotel  was the perfect meeting spot for the families to hang out and enjoy the graceful Victorian wrap-around porch. Their recommendation to bring lawn games was a huge hit! Furthermore, the highest accolade we can attribute to the Chalfonte was the staff! Guest after guest complemented both of us with the efficiency, friendliness, and attentiveness of the entire staff. Water

From the beautiful vineyards, to the owners love for colorful landscaping, wood beams, leather couches, imported chandeliers, and pops of color throughout, this venue offers picture perfect scenery no matter where you are on the property. It is also a short drive to the beach, where we had our first looks and then had the rest of our pictures at the winery. We rented their Rose Room for an hour or two which was a great spot for the wedding party to hang and everyone to freshen up before the ceremony. We had our ceremony at the wine tasting building, which definitely makes you timeline a lot tighter, but Willow Creek has preferred vendors that are experts in working with the wineries timelines and will make sure that everything is ready to go by your start time. Hamilton is absolutely amazing. She is a quick responder to all questions and is so pleasant to work with. She made the stressful process of wedding planning a lot easier. Our guest raved about the food (the beef wellington hors d'oeuvre was a crowd favorite). And the party favors that come with your package are little wine bottles, which of course, none were left behind. Bonus: it's pet friendly through cocktail hour so we had our pup in the wedding! Willow Creek is a dream wedding venue and you wont be disappointed working with them for your big day.","user_object_id":null,"account_id":null,"review_word_count":1689,"created_at":"2023-07-18T17:20:43.996Z"}},{"storefront_uuid":"96d2cfad-2289-44f7-850a-b20970b95c7d","slug":"la-mer-beachfront-resort","name":"La Mer Beachfront Resort","vendor_type":"VENUE","city":"Cape May","state_province":"NJ","postal_code":"08204","location":{"latitude":38.93458,"longitude":-74.90224},"home_service_market":null,"image_ids":["c313c938-b27c-41ea-a3a7-940cbbb15b76","885946ed-3d41-4c36-b475-2907f17eed69","2ba2ca3c-9cce-4988-b042-4a6279816567","1551be06-ca23-470c-bd3b-cfc434933dbb","64daa015-554b-4c13-b809-076d03c3e608"],"details":{"capacity":{"min":25,"max":100},"venue_setting":["venue-setting-indoor-space","venue-setting-covered-outdoor-space","venue-setting-outdoor-space"],"service_level":["venue-service-level-raw-space"],"food_beverage_start_price_cents":null,"food_and_beverage_start_price_cents_per_person":10000,"peak_space_start_price_cents":449800,"off_peak_space_start_price_cents":275000},"home_markets":[],"travel_markets":[],"metro_type":null,"response_stats":{"response_rate_percent":0,"average_response_time_minutes":0,"quick_responder":false,"non_responder":false},"top_couple_recommendation":{"review_uuid":"786528e0-7d3d-4e85-980b-d428c9f7bcb2","review_status":"APPROVED","overall_rating":5,"reviewer_name":"Mackenzie and Jacob","email":"mgrillodpt@gmail.com","title":"Beautiful venue","review_text":"We worked with Angel to build our dream wedding, and cannot be more thankful to have found her and La Mer.
