When I first started looking at wedding venues, I knew I wanted an ocean vibe. As I was scrolling through The Knot website, I came across the venue as it was listed as in my price range. When I finally went on the website, I was floored. I knew immediately this was where I wanted to get married. The wooden doors, the beach stone terrace, and ocean...it was gorgeous. Seeing it in person sealed the deal. Because of COVID, our wedding date was delayed by 2 years; however, Oceanview's staff was very responsive and easily reachable throughout which was helpful in the planning process. During our two-year wait, the cocktail hour room had been refurbished. It is a beautiful room with gorgeous details on the ceiling. I liked the fact that the cocktail room was separate from the dance floor for my guests if they wanted to get away from the music. There are also many places outside for guests to escape which I also appreciated. In terms of the food, it was excellent! I had so many guests raving about the food! Prior to the wedding date, I was worried because more than 3/4 of our guest count opted for the beef. I had been to other weddings where meat had been cooked inconsistently or was served cold. Not here! Everyone said their meat was cooked perfectly and was so tender! In addition to the main courses, they have a variety of yummy appetizers and desserts. We opted for smores at the end of the night on the beach which is a fun way to end the day. When I first looked at the venue, I thought it was too good to be true that I could afford such a wonderful place. I had guests approaching me thinking the venue was way more expensive than what I actually paid for it. For the view, the food, and the staff, it is truly a bargain! The staff is extremely attentive, and it is nice that there is only 1 wedding at a time which I have seen other venues not offer. We opted for the all-inclusive package which includes cocktail appetizers, beer and wine for cocktail hour and for 1 hour at end of the night during the firepit finale with smores, the 3 course meal, the DJ, a photo booth, and favors at the end of the night. It was a great deal and helped us from having to find a DJ. If you are looking to save some money like we were, this would be a great option! Clearly, I can't stop gushing about this venue. As cliché as it sounds, it was a perfect day and Oceanview's staff and ambiance helped make it come to life. Highly recommend!
