From the reviews

Great waterfront dining in the Fairview Marina. My wife and I went for their soft opening and will definitely be going back. The owners are hands on and the staff was extremely attentive and friendly. We started with the Charred Brussels.

Getting married at Sam & Maggie's Dockside Grill and Waterfront Events

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.
