From the reviews

We loved having Wentworth by the Sea Country Club as our wedding venue. We were married there on October 1, 2022, and everything turned out perfectly! The venue is amazing - on a golf course with a beautiful ocean view! Our guests raved about the location, the delicious food, and service!

★★★★★ — Jamie, Oct 2022

I had my wedding here in September, and it was absolutely amazing! I was initially hesitant to go with a venue that did not allow outside catering .. but I was reassured once I spoke with Holly about it. They allowed me to do a 100% custom vegetarian brunch menu and my guests loved it!

★★★★★ — Kristen, Dec 2019

We had our wedding at Wentworth by the Sea Country Club on 6/24/22 and it was an absolutely amazing event. Jenna and her staff did an incredible job from start to finish. The food was just as good as it was at the tasting and they paid attention to every detail.

★★★★★ — Jason, Jun 2022

Getting married at Wentworth By The Sea Country 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.
