We had an absolutely incredible experience at Mallard Island Yacht Club! From the moment we started planning, Gianna went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect. She was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and attentive to every detail, making the entire planning process seamless and stress-free. Every aspect of the venue—from the stunning waterfront views to the beautifully arranged spaces—was flawless. The team’s dedication to ensuring everything ran smoothly truly made a difference. Jillian, Kayla, and Christy made my day as the bride so special. They anticipated every need, offered support with a smile, and were there for every little moment, making me feel calm, cared for, and celebrated throughout the day. Their kindness, professionalism, and genuine warmth did not go unnoticed by us or our guests. Thanks to Gianna, Jillian, Kayla, and Christy, our wedding was not just beautiful—it was unforgettable.

We had our wedding at the Flanders, and they did an incredible job! The hotel is a gorgeous venue for weddings, and from our first tour it stood out as a unique location that would look great in our photos. The food was excellent; we especially enjoyed the dim sum station at our cocktail hour. Our guests gave rave reviews about their meals. Lisa and Molly were great coordinators who assured us throughout the whole planning process that everything would go smoothly - and then made it happen! Being an obsessive planner myself, and doing all my decorations myself, I put together a binder of my plans for how each piece should be displayed. Lisa and Molly took that with grace, asked questions where needed, and made it happen! Joanne was an amazing maitre d' who anticipated our every need. She ensured that the day went perfectly, starting with the moment we walked down the aisle and she gave us some hints for scoring the best photos. She had also clearly read our binder. I was especially impressed when we came out of our ceremony and she had a platter of drinks ready for us and our wedding party while the marriage certificates were being signed. She was able to make a lighting change in one of our decorations happen while we were decompressing after the ceremony. During our Farewell Breakfast the next day, she coordinated packing away our homemade decorations, allowing us to enjoy the event without stress. Overall, the day went perfectly. It really is true that the best-laid plans will only succeed with a good team, and I feel strongly that we made an excellent choice in trusting this team for our wedding.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
The team at Johnson's Locust Hall Farm made our wedding day truly special. Their communication was always clear, quick, and supportive throughout the entire planning process. The venue has a close working relationship with Toscano's catering - we did not need to worry about communication between the two, as it was always seamless (not to mention Toscano's has the best wedding food we've ever eaten). The venue itself is beautiful, intentionally designed, and impeccably well-maintained. We toured many farm venues, and this one stood out immediately. When a thunderstorm hit 10 minutes before our outdoor ceremony, the staff jumped into action and seamlessly shifted the order of events around to hold cocktail hour while the storm passed. They were even able to get us back outside on magically dry seats, fulfilling our dream of an outdoor ceremony. Avery and the entire team were incredibly accommodating, running every detail by us and ensuring we had the final say. Our guests have not stopped raving about the stunning venue and the warm, welcoming staff. Avery, Carol, Allie, and everyone else have hearts of gold. Johnson's also offers in-house florals - Carol and Allie's attention to detail and willingness to work with us on budget were so appreciated. I feel so lucky to have been married at Johnson's Locust Hall Farm. Do not think twice about choosing this venue!

Founders Grove is one of the most unique and enchanting properties I’ve had the pleasure of visiting. The historic farmhouse and the original carriage house—once home to horses—are being lovingly reimagined into a breathtaking wedding and event venue, set to open in 2026. The blend of preserved history and modern renovation makes the space feel both meaningful and magical. I’ve attended several vendor meet-ups during the renovation process, and each time I leave more impressed. Watching this venue grow from its roots into something truly extraordinary has been inspiring. Founders Grove is on track to become a standout location for couples and events, and I can’t wait to see the final reveal in 2026. The bridal suite—located in the farmhouse—is absolutely magical and even gives you that perfect “something blue.”

The Maitre De went missing a lot throughout the day, to the point where my uncle had to find her whenever i needed. They set up & cleaned everything up for us which was lovely. the hotel bar stayed open late (sunday wedding) but you couldn’t make it private. so you had people at the bar trying to add to an open tab. you get a room block, the director of rooms Rebecca is very easy to work with as well. the outdoor ceremony space is gorgeous!!!
