From the reviews
We had our wedding in the ballroom, top floor. Beautiful space, great food, and Mark is like the missing member of your family. Great times were had!!
We loved our daughter's wedding reception at Marina Shores. Everything happened as planned, Mark was great to work with. He even called the morning of the wedding just to see if we were doing ok.
My daughter and son in law had their wedding reception at the Marina Shores in February. It was an all around fantastic experience! Mark was wonderful to work with and even took the time to be at the reception and make sure everything went as well as we had planned.
Mark was so amazing when it came to planning my big day! We had our wedding reception here and it turned out more than I could ever imagine. We got a lot of compliments on his food and some of it even came fresh from his garden.
Getting married at The Marina Shores
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.
