“It was a very nice venue with polite staff. The food was incredible.”

From the reviews

Attended a wedding here and also had dinner. It was a very nice venue with polite staff. The food was incredible. I wish we had a chef like that where we live! We can’t wait to come back to the beautiful view. The sunset was unforgettable.

Seems like a very nice place. We only went for the Christmas bazaar so I can't comment on food, drink, or service, but it was easy to find and had a nice view of the bay. Would definitely go back.

★★★★★ — Jessica, Dec 2021

I recently attended the reception for the funeral of my uncle John "Jack" Bell at the club and truly appreciated the kindness and professionalism of the staff. It's a great place.

Getting married at Bay-Waveland Yacht Club

Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
