Cape May wedding venue?

Hello. I am thinking about Cape May for my wedding ceremoeny (beach) and reception and need location suggestions. Here is what I am looking for:

Hosting a smaller wedding of approx 70 to 80 guests. Need a venue that would have a dance floor and allow for music for a late afternoon / evening event. I also need a venue that has a full bar (rather than just beer/wine). Also, my guests are coming from out of town and, being a wedding and all, many would likely enjoy an ';after party'; type of event, either at the venue%26#39;s bar or at one nearby (within walking distance). I want it to have a feeling of being fun and more casual, rather than formal. A bonus would be a venue that has inside/outside space - say the cocktail hour outside and the dinner inside. Do you know of any locations that might fit the bill? Many thanks in advance.

I got married in Cape May and it was a wonderful experience! My wife and I chose the Grand Hotel, which would meet the bill for all the things you requested- multiple nice ball rooms with plenty of room for dancing, full bar, outdoor second-floor patio overlooking the ocean, pirate-themed bar on the premesis, restaurant on the premesis, indoor and outdoor pools, spa, and so much more. Check it out.

Also, check out Congress Hall. It%26#39;s a bit more pricey, but the location is beautiful and they will take care of everything for you! Full bar, indoor and outdoor space, plenty of room for dancing and two bars for after parties. Also has a great on-site restaurant.

(Incidentally, Andrea is my wife)

Congrats!

Congratulations!

I know several persons who had their reception at the Twinings at the Emlen Physick Estate. Their number is 800-275-4278, their website is www.capemaymac.org.

There us a planner, Weddings by the Sea. They seem to do alot of beach weddings, I see them from where I work just about every weekend. I had heard good %26amp; not so great, but check them out, I have heard more good than not, I guess it depends on exactly what you are looking for. Their number is 1-866-459-7900. They can arrange Beach ceremonies.

The Grand and Congress Hall both do a lovely job.

Good Luck, hope this information helps.

Family members of mine own Aleathea%26#39;s and the Hotel. A few friends have gotten married there and loved it. :)

Excellent suggestions from Pat! I wasn%26#39;t aware that MAC (non-profit group Mid-Atlantic Center for the Arts) did weddings until recently. I just talked with Archie Kirk about weddings at the tea room. For those that don%26#39;t know, he and his wife own the Bedford Inn and he%26#39;s a board member of MAC.

What an amazing backdrop for that special day! Here%26#39;s a link to the MAC site for more info- www.capemaymac.org/content/subpage_main.aspx…

And I forgot to say it before, but congrats! I was married in Cape May myself and the memories are wonderful.
