From the reviews
We had our wedding here at the SBYC and it surpassed all of our wedding dreams!! The location is of course so beautiful and private, if you love the water, this is for you. The staff was extremely helpful throughout the planning process and always made things easy on us.
We just had our wedding at the SBYC and could not have had a better experience. Andrea did a fantastic job working with me on all the details, our guests were raving about TJ’s meals, and the bartenders kept everyone happy all night. Highly recommend having your next event at this beautiful space!
We're members at another club, enjoyed the bartender telling the history of the once famous club as economic down turns and aging members things all change, drinks great, view ok, but food so so,
Getting married at Sturgeon Bay 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.
