“The weather was cool, but we could easily walk downtown, to the beach and a different dinner spot each night.”

From the reviews

Wilbraham Mansion is perfect for anyone who loves Cape May. Close to the beach and plenty of good restaurant's, and, far enough, for a quiet relaxing getaway. The staff is personable and friendly. The old world charm is a pleasant change from the cookie cutter accommodations, of most places.

Getting married at Wilbraham Mansion

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.
