From the reviews

Had our wedding in September at the beach glass estate! Dawn and her family did an amazing job! They were so accommodating and any issues that happened they fixed it immediately! Our bridal party was able to stay all weekend with us and the rooms they created were amazing and so cozy!

★★★★★ — Mackenzie, Oct 2020

I can't say enough great things about this place. The owner, Dawn, and her family helped us create our big day in a month. After twice having to cancel our wedding at a different venue, we ended here! Mandi and myself couldn't be more happy.

★★★★★ — Patrick, Oct 2020

We recently got married at Beach Glass Estates. They were very friendly to work with. We planned our wedding from 6 hours away. They were helpful and went out of there way to make our day special. Incredible venue and staff. The place is absolutely gorgeous.

★★★★★ — Sarah, Jul 2020

We had a beautiful wedding here in August of 2020. It was the perfect setting for our small group. Dawn was such a wonderful hostess, assisting with the planning, the setup process, and helping everything go smoothly on the day. You couldn't ask for a more picturesque location for your wedding or event!

Getting married at Beach Glass Estates - The Old Saint Barnabas House

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.
