My wife had been following Bay View on social media for some time prior to our engagement. So as soon as I popped the question, we knew this would be the place. From first walkthroughs of the property all the way to the big day, the staff at Bay View is on top of it (Rose, in particular). Their dedication to making your day perfect is obvious and the venue itself is breathtaking.
