Me and my husband had our wedding here two weeks ago. We toured their banquet rooms last Summer and choose their facility because at our initial meeting they offered us a package we couldn't refuse. They were also going to fully renovated in time for our special day & we loved the renderings we saw and could picture ourselves creating wonderful memories there. We had no major issues throughout the year leading up until our final walk through meeting. When we sat down with the coordinator it was apparent that things like setting up our ceremony, even though we were told set-up would be included, was going to be an inconvenience also not to mention the fact that we had to come in for our rehearsal on a Sunday which was her day off. During our actual rehearsal I tried to communicate how I wanted certain things to flow & felt like I was constantly getting dismissed and told how I should change things and do it another way. I thought maybe I was just being unfair about my feelings of being unheard, but my entire bridal party said that she was being rude and dismissive as well.
She also kept hinting that it would be ok if we stayed after she left and set-up the reception space so she had less to do the next day. On our actual wedding day she did check in a few times but during a few moments where we needed someone there was no one to be found. My brother and our other vendors actually took on those tasks for us which we are tremendously grateful for. I spent the first hour of my day setting up my ceremony anyway to make sure it would be done right because at the point I had no confidence it would be done correctly. We also had no one to direct our guests as they arrived, (which was promised before we signed the contract), & a few guests that needed to use their elevator were left walking around not sure where to go. Our main course was also not prepared the same way we had experienced during our tasting. For the price you pay for a plated dinner it shouldnt have tasted like a freezer meal.
But to be fair, even though this review may get deleted,there were parts of our day that were truly amazing & that's why I have given the rating I have. Our coordinator did in fact set-up our reception space for us the way I had asked & was able to make another last minute change. The waitstaff was phenomenal & treated everyone like royalty. I didn't make it to the bar but was told the bartenders did an amazing job all night. Our cocktail hour selections were very delicious & our guests are still talking about those dishes.I wish we could have had that food the entire night. We did get a discounted package with extras included & the the venue itself and it's renovations are absolutely stunning. We do have beautiful pictures and video to look back on and it was a beautiful day. Overall our guests, me, and my husband enjoyed ourselves, but feel our money could have been better spent elsewhere or been directly given to the staff and vendors that made our day so special. I know most people have had better experiences overall throughout their interactions with this GB, but these are both the good and bad moments we experienced. I'd recommend really doing your research on any venue you may be considering and look at all of the reviews you may find. Other bad reviews stated similar issues we had and I wish we would have looked a bit closer before booking. Our troubles may have been entirely avoided if we had gone with our 2nd, or 3rd choice from the beginning.
We were one of the first weddings after their major renovation! The venue is absolutely gorgeous! Serving staff was absolutely so amazing throughout our entire wedding day there beginning at 9 am - our waitress Maria always made sure we were taken care of and Paul was the absolute best! My husband and I did not miss any food as we had plates prepared for us by him and always a drink in our hand! Service is top notch here! So many compliments! Sharon and Danielle are amazing at their jobs and are very helpful (especially in the stressful situation of renovations and making sure everything was complete and perfect for our special day)! I am so happy I chose to have our special day at Greate Bay after touring many South Jersey venues - they are truly so Greate!!!
I was Part of a bridal party for my best friends wedding and let me tell you, I have never seen such a well executed wedding! The team they have in place for this venue is top notch!!!! Shoran organized the ceremony perfect and flawlessly and Danielle, the wedding manager was phenomenal!!!!! The servers were very professional and we could tell they were trained properly and skilled. We are all in the business and It’s not easy to find good banquet staff. The food was delicious as well and the night went perfectly. The main server Maria was FANTASTIC (and that is an understatement). Danielle set the room up with such care and she was around whenever we needed her. She even offered to go to the store for us when we needed some extra items we were missing!! That is true service right there! Kudos to Shoran and Danielle and the rest of the staff at Greate Bay for making us all feel just as important as the bride and groom!!
Any questions?
My wedding, just a couple weeks ago, at Greate Bay Country Club was honestly everything I ever wanted, and more! Sharon and Danielle were just fantastic throughout the entire planning process from beginning to end. Sharon was extremely responsive, helpful, and attentive to every question and concern my husband and I ever had. Danielle was phenomenal at executing my wedding-day vision perfectly, to the point where guests and myself were wowed at it all! They both had the honesty and professionalism my husband and I needed to make our vision come to life in the best (and least stressful) way possible. Greate Bay’s food and bar service was excellent. We honestly can’t think of ONE complaint from the entire wedding night. It went so perfectly and smoothly for us and our guests! We got tons of compliments on how beautiful the recently renovated venue was, the food, the service, and everything in between! We truly had a flawless night. It was all made so easy for us that, as a bride, I didn’t have a single worry! The entire staff at Greate Bay made us feel so special and cared about as the Bride and Groom. It was such a nice, relieving feeling on what is basically the most stressful, yet amazing, day of your life. We could not recommend Greate Bay more for your wedding or event!!! We are just thrilled thinking back at all of it.. Thank you again Sharon & Danielle!
When we first heard the choice of a venue was a country club golf course we were hesitant to say the least that the ambience and food would not be wedding worthy. Contrary to what we thought, Great Bay Country Club was above and beyond what was expected. The wedding service was on the beach, we had the rehearsal at GBCC all the details were covered and everything worked out perfectly at the beach. Sharon made sure that guests were bused to the beach for the service and returned to the venue for the cocktail hour and reception. The service was phenomenal, the preparation and decor were astonishing and their product was visually delightful and tasty. The cocktail hour was amazing with plenty of seating for the guests to mingle and move around. The main course was awesome followed by fabulous dessert islands. We danced and sang throughout the evening and then sadly the night was ending with a cheesesteak, french fries and pretzels as a night treat as guests were leaving. Many thanks to Ron the General Manager, Sharon the Catering Sales Manager and Danielle the Banquet Manager for a phenomenal day and night just sensational.
For my wife and I, the wedding planning process started out like everyone else’s with an overwhelming number of choices for wedding venues. When we met with Sharon at Greate Bay Country Club (GBCC), we loved how “at ease” she made us feel. When we decided to go with GBCC as our wedding venue, at that time did not know how lucky we were in making that decision. We were one of the countless number of couples impacted by the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic. Our original wedding date was April 4, 2020. After 4 rescheduled wedding dates, we finally got married in person on March 19, 2022. Throughout the two years of rescheduled wedding dates, Sharon was incredibly understanding, sympathetic and accommodating. My wife and I just wanted everyone to be safe at our wedding, but also understood that GBCC is a business that needs to generate a profit. The pandemic hit everyone hard financially, and the wedding industry was no exception. The cost of everything went up. We were speechless when, through the multiple rescheduled dates, GBCC did not raise the price over the course of the two years, when in fact, they would have been perfectly justified in doing so. We were so thankful for choosing GBCC as our wedding venue.
Sharon was easy to work with throughout the wedding planning process. She returned emails and phone calls quickly and answered all our questions thoroughly. You could tell that she has a vast knowledge and great deal of experience in all facets of planning a wedding. We appreciated her attention to detail and suggestions. My wife and I got married at GBCC and the reception immediately followed the wedding. The day of the wedding, when my wife and I arrived at GBCC, we were blown away by how amazing everything looked! The room where the ceremony was to be held was beautiful, as was the reception and cocktail areas. Sharon, Danielle and their team implemented our vision for our wedding flawlessly. No detail was overlooked. Throughout the day, the staff gave excellent customer service.
The end of this review is going to be unlike any other review that you will have read because at our wedding, my Mom fell on the dance floor and broke her hip. My sister went to the hospital with my Mom, and my wife and I helped to load her in the ambulance. Throughout the whole ordeal, Danielle from GBCC was right by our side, even getting my Mom a table cloth to use as a blanket when we were outside waiting for the ambulance because she was cold. Danielle navigated an extremely difficult crisis with grace and class. When we went back to the wedding reception, Danielle informed my wife and I that GBCC was going to extend our wedding reception by a half hour at no cost to us. No one had asked them to do that – they just did it because they saw how awful the situation was and wanted to help. To this day, my wife and I cannot adequately put into words how much we appreciated that beautiful gesture. Through that experience, we were able to see that not only was the staff at GBCC able to provide excellent service, but in addition, they were really exceptional people who genuinely care for others.
If you are looking for a beautiful wedding venue, who will provide excellent customer service, who were absolutely amazing to work with, and who are genuinely good people, then my wife and I give GBCC our highest recommendation. Sharon and her team will not disappoint, and you will be so happy that you selected the best in the wedding industry!

Kelly you and Sara were absolutely wonderful to work with, so thank you for making our jobs such a pleasure, during such difficult times! We deeply appreciate your kind sentiments, and wish you both all the best!
After our wedding, we had MANY guests reach out to share that it was "the best wedding they have ever been to!" From the early planning stages to the day of, Sharon and her team were total pros. They took care of everything, truly. I was so calm through the whole process because I had total trust in the Greate Bay team. Not only are they pros, but the renovations to the ballroom are gorgeous! It is a fantastic venue if you're looking for a beautiful and fun wedding experience!
Sharon made everything run so smoothly for our wedding! The venue was stunning and we had compliments rolling in all evening! Highly recommend Greate Bay for any event!

Becky, thank you for making my job easy! You were the best! So glad you enjoyed everything.
Sharon was a great help and very professional along with the rest of her staff. The food was delicious and the great ballroom looked beautiful. I would recommend this venue to other couples looking to get married as well. The pricing was reasonable for the amount of guests we had.
Response from the Vendor on 10/16/2021
So glad you enjoyed everything, and thanks for being so easy to work with, especially with the added stress of a holiday weekend for you!
The team at greate Bay made my planning and day so easy ! All my guest spoke very highly of my wedding day and wouldn’t of been like that without the awesome venue I had . If I had to choose a place for and an event I would most def choose greate bay hands down. Food is awesome !
Response from the Vendor on 10/14/2021
Thanks so much Nicole! You and your Mom we an absolute pleasure to work with!
Greate Bay was absolutely perfect for my wedding. Sharon for the months leading up to the wedding was on top of it and kept me well informed all through the various changes in Covid Restrictions. My day of team with Maria and Danielle (and Sharon) as well as a gentleman who I didn't catch his name were all so accommodating and considerate of me - making sure I had a drink and food all night. Everything went very smoothly and it was overall a very easy day with no stress.
Danielle had even set up some extra table arrangements for me for the cocktail room with leftover flowers from earlier in the week and Maria went out of her way to see if I wanted to keep the flowers at the gazebo from the day before' s event (which was awesome as I didn't get flowers for that area)
All of my guests had great things to say about the food! The cocktail hour food especially was a huge hit along with the "after party" cheesesteaks and waffle bar to go !
At the end of the evening the staff went above and beyond to make sure that all of my guests got back to the hotel across the street safely.
Overall very very positive experience!

Heather, I am so glad you had a Greate time! You and Jack were so easy to work....Thanks for that :) Danielle and I along with all of our Greate Bay Staff, wish you and yours all the best!
After our initial wedding caterer went out if business due to COVID and losing out deposit we nearly gave up on having a reception. We decided we would do a small Covid wedding and then a big reception on our one year anniversary. We were looking for a venue that would work with our new significantly smaller budget and Sharon at Greate Bay made it work! Our wedding ended up being much smaller than expected (100 rather than 170 guests) so we were able to add back in some of the things we had taken out. In the end , Greate Bay was the best decision we could have made. The bridal suite allowed us to get ready at the venue, the pub allowed us to have an after party with Mancini an d Manco pizza. And let me tell you about the food! Best wedding food I’ve ever had. We scaled back to fish, chicken, and ravioli and several guests commented on how perfectly cooked the salmon was. The service was outstanding , the outdoor space is ideal for pictures. The giant windows in the reception area are gorgeous. Several people commented on how nice the venue is. Our third time is a charm wedding reception was perfect in every way. Highly recommend!!

Marna, thanks for your kind words. Everyone here at Greate Bay really appreciates it, This has been a tough year for staffing, so those that are here have been working extra hard to make sure our guests are enjoying their experience with us.
I have to say Greate Bay has been hands down such an amazing venue. Sharon and her staff went above and beyond for us. We had to reschedule our wedding 3 times (due to COVID) and each time she was very helpful and pleasant. We finally celebrated on July 17th! The day couldn’t have gone better. If there were any problems, They were handled and I never heard about them. The tables (center pieces, sweet heart, favor, card, cake and memory) were set up exactly how I asked. Everything looked beautiful. My guest raved about the food and atmosphere. Many told us it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to. We are so thankful for Sharon and the staff at GB. Thank you for making our wedding everything we dreamed of.

Ashleigh, Thanks for your kind words! Tammy and I were so glad you were finally able to enjoy the wedding of your dreams, you sooooo deserved it after the craziness of last year! Thanks again for choosing Greate Bay!
We couldn’t have asked for a more perfectly executed ceremony and reception at Greate Bay. We worked with the venue coordinator, Sharon, who was so helpful, responsive, and generally great to work with throughout the planning process. On the day of the wedding, they have staff on site to attend to both wedding parties, working behind the scenes to make sure everyone is taken care of, and the service and professionalism throughout the night was unmatched. We were so impressed by the food, from the apps all the way to entrees. Every detail of the night went perfectly, and it is clear that the team at Greate Bay has perfected their wedding execution. This venue is an excellent choice.

Thank you Claudia. It was absolutely my pleasure to work with you as well. I am so glad you had beautiful weather , after waiting so long for your special day to finally happen!
Congratulations and Thank You for choosing Greate Bay!
We found this venue after postponing our wedding due to COVID and having two venues cancel on us. I am so happy we found Greate Bay Country Club they made our day BEAUTIFUL. Sharon was wonderful to deal with. She was always quick to respond to my millions of emails. The day of, they took care of everything from start to finish it was wonderful. Servers were fantastic. Food was delicious. Book them you won’t regret it.

Thank You Kasey, for your kind words. I am so glad that we were able to help you finally enjoy the day you both looked forward to for so long! It was our pleasure to work with you and your family!
I can't describe how amazing our wedding was at Greate Bay. Everyone was raving about the cocktail hour and new renovations. Sharon was beyond incredible during our wedding process considering we had to move our date because of covid. She is super flexible and is willing to work with you to make your wedding the best day ever. 10/10 recommend Sharon & Greate Bay.
Response from the Vendor on 05/19/2021
Kelley, I am so glad that you could finally enjoy your day! You were wonderful to work with, especially considering the constantly changing situation for the past year! Thanks for your kind sentiments and for choosing Greate Bay!
My son's wedding was just perfect. From Sharon organizing everything, Tammy and the entire staff were great. A pleasure to work with planning everything from start to finish. Cocktail hour & dinner went very smoothly. Would highly recommend. People were saying "best wedding they have been to" Thank you to all at Greate Bay
Response from the Vendor on 05/13/2021
Thank You Susan, you and your family were an absolute pleasure to work with and with moving the date 3 times I am just so glad Kelley and Connor FINALLY got to enjoy their Special Day!
First I have to start off with the fact that I changed my wedding venue 1 month prior to my wedding date! Our original venue just couldn’t provide us with the wedding we were hoping for! Then I met Sharon! She pulled it all together and helped us plan the wedding of our dreams in just a couple of weeks! Getting married during a pandemic is not ideal BUT Greate Bay did it flawlessly. Sharon, Tammy, Chef Austin, and the rest of the team were amazing! So helpful and accommodating every step of the way! Even with some new Covid restrictions. I wish I could go back and do it all over again! What a perfect day!
The greate bay country club was the absolute perfect venue for my wedding!! The location is perfect being right outside of ocean city, the outdoor ceremony space is beautiful with the lake and fountain and gazebo, and the ballroom inside is gorgeous! Sharon Ireland, the event coordinator was so helpful and amazing throughout the whole process. Getting married during covid was stressful but Sharon made sure to come up with creative solutions to every problem we faced and to always keep me calm throughout every step of the process. She gave us so many deals that allowed my dream wedding to happen at an affordable price and was so flexible and willing to make everything happen just as I wanted it to. The day of the wedding sharon was there to make sure everything went smoothly and it all did go fantastic! I highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful place to get married and incredible people to work with and help make it happen!! I could not be more thankful that I chose greate bay!!
Our wedding at Greate Bay Country Club was the best day ever!!! After having to totally re-arrange our wedding plans due to COVID, Sharon helped us to plan an amazing wedding reception. Since we had to cut back our large guest list, our original plan was to have a smaller reception (about 90) people at Greate Bay and then have a larger reception next year in Philly where we were originally supposed to get married, but our smaller reception was so fantastic that we no longer feel the need to have another reception. Highly recommend!
We had so many issues with planning our wedding because the wedding coordinator was not very helpful. She spent more time talking to us about other peoples’ weddings than our own. We asked her at least four times to see their decorations for centerpieces and every time she would say that their decorator wasn’t there even though I would tell her weeks in advance that we were coming. We just ended up buying everything for our centerpieces and other decorations. We had a beach ceremony, which she clearly was not happy about. She complained about other couples having too many decorations to bring to the beach. The day of our wedding we were getting on the party bus to go to the beach and we were basically loading our own decorations. When we got to the beach there was a giant pipe blocking the view of the ocean. She kept saying how it would be fine and that the bridesmaids and groomsman would block it in pictures. You couldn’t even see the water - that’s how big the pipe was.
After we payed the final bill she told us that their bridal suite was being renovated and we couldn’t use it. They have a locker room area so she said we could use that for hair and makeup. When the makeup ladies got there half of the outlets didn’t work, there were no tables for them, and it was very hot. The coordinator was no where to be found because she was not coming in until later. I saw her once the entire day before the ceremony.
During our reception when the DJ was in the middle of introducing us all, she came up to me and asked me how much my hair and makeup cost, totally uncalled for.
The food was pretty good. One of the entrees did not taste the same as it did during our tasting, which was disappointing.
The decorations we brought were set up very nicely by the decorator and everything looked great at the reception. The venue as a whole is very pretty and the staff was great. We used their two decks and outdoor bar for the reception. Overall, the whole night was great and everyone had a great time.
Greate Bay gave us a fabulous dinner celebrating our daughter's Wedding Mass. We decided to do the big reception next year because of the virus but wanted some type of celebration. It was very difficult finding a venue for even our small party but Greate Bay came to our rescue! Even when the situation kept changing because of the virus they rose to the challenge and made our celebration wonderful!!! Everyone we dealt with from Sharon,to bartender,wait staff,were great!
Greate Bay gave us a flawless wedding reception. Every detail felt so personal, and they made me feel like I was their top priority in the middle of the busy wedding season (Saturday wedding in mid-September). Sharon went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed and gave tasteful advice, and Morgan made sure my husband and I enjoyed every second of our reception. I cannot say enough about how pleased we are with the service and professionalism we experienced at Greate Bay. They surpassed every expectation we had, and our guests are still raving about the high quality of food and service provided. We are forever grateful for their expertise! It was perfect!
Greate Bay catered and managed our daughters wonderful wedding at the Ocean City Yacht Club and it was absolutely perfect from the beach set up for the ceremony to the sparkler
send off and everything in between! The attention to detail provided by Ron, Elaine, Sharon, Tammy and all the servers and bartenders was outstanding. The food was delicious and we got so many compliments from our guests! One of our guests said you can tell a wedding is a great time when everyone stays until the end and that’s what happened for us thanks to Greate Bay and their awesome team!
PS -we also had the rehearsal dinner at the Great Bay Country Club and it was fantastic! Delicious food, great attention to detail, beautiful venue and outstanding service!
Recommend highly for all
Occasions!
My daughter’s wedding was held at Ocean City Yacht Club which is managed by Greate Bay Country Club. The Yacht Club is not that large but it comfortably fit 175 people with a band and head table. From start to finish, the staff at Greate Bay worked very hard to incorporate all of our requests and were very professional and responsive. The food was delicious and we had a picture perfect day to enjoy the sunset views on the bay.
Sharon, Morgan, Maria & Manny made our wedding the most spectacular day! Sharon was with us from the beginning, helping us coordinate all the details. She was patient and attentive, answered all questions and had great suggestions. Morgan was an absolute ANGEL the day of the wedding. He made my husband and I feel so calm and really took over when we needed it most!! Truly so great. Maria and Manny set up the room absolutely beautifully, designing it exactly to my vision. It was the best day all thanks to the wonderful staff at Greate Bay. Would HIGHLY recommend!!!
Sharon Ireland and her staff at Greate Bay Country Club were perfect from the planning to the execution. I was a bride that lost her venue to a larger party. Sharon took us on. I was not the easiest bride either. Lots of questions. I also had a lot of decorations. Maria and Manny set the room up perfectly. Everything went off without a hitch from the ceremony to the reception. I’ll be forever grateful. Everyone had a Greate time!! Thank you to Sharon, Maria and Manny!!
We got married at the Ocean City Yacht Club and spent 2 years planning with Sharon! The wedding went perfectly thanks to expert planning & beautiful weather. Our guests had an amazing time and we got gorgeous pictures outside on the dock at sunset. We absolutely loved having our wedding with Greate Bay!
As the mother of the bride, I was 100% satisfied with the big day! Greate Bay is a beautiful venue with plenty of room, along with a wonderful outdoor patio. Sharon and Morgan were wonderful to work with as well as the entire staff.
We were very glad we chose Greate Bay for this great day!
We resently experienced the warmth and execution of the Greate Bay Country Club. The people were absolutely fabulous and took care of ever so many details. As the out of town half of the wedding it is refreshing to be embraced as if we were 20 year members.
Just can't say enough about the hospitality, it was world class service!
We got a great deal with Greate Bay, we booked our details with Sharon and she was amazing to work with! The staff goes above and beyond expectations, from setting up to service! We had a beautiful reception in January 2019. I loved the location very easy to get to from out of town family, it has a beautiful landscape of the golf course well kept year round. Greate Bay had the best venue for our big family and make the whole day about the couple. It was a great experience and I would recommend to anyone looking for a venue!
Amazing ! Great Bay helped us plan our daughters wedding in less than a month. The staff was very professional. They became part of out family for this once in a lifetime event! They made our special day fit our budget as well as keeping it beautiful. Our guests wanted for nothing. Food was great...venuje was beautiful (ceremony outside by gazebo) , staff catered to us...our daughter and her new husband were so happy. Both families and friends thought it was a fabulous experience! Thank you Great Bay!
My husband and I got married here in May 2019, and it was the best day of our lives! The venue was beautiful, the food was delicious. The staff made sure to make our day so special. Thank you!
My sister already reviewed this and it was taken off. Probably because they don’t want to get bad reviews. So theses reviews must be fake. I got married June 2019. The wedding venue it’s self is beautiful. However the wedding coordinator absolutely sucks. She promised things that never happened. For example, one of my brides maids went looking for her so we could start the ceremony and found her in her office on her phone!! I’m sorry this is an event, you shouldn’t be on your phone in your office!! Manny other terrible things happened but I am not going to waste my time.
DO NOT BOOK THIS VENUE. Disappointment doesn't even begin to describe our experience for my sisters wedding. As per stated in her contract, the bridal party arrived at 3pm. Sharron (the coordinator) was no where to be found. We continued as planned with pictures.I can personally say that I did not see the coordinator until we walked down the isle. That is COMPLETELY unacceptable. As wedding coordinator she should have been at the venue several hrs prior to the bride getting there make sure that everything was up to snuff. She then had the audacity to ask the groomsmen if the guests were all seated so we could begin the ceremony. This woman was expecting everyone else to do her job for her. Luckily the ceremony went smoothly. Now, this is where I start to get angry. The bar lines were 30 min deep. AT LEAST. We gave a head count several weeks prior to the wedding. They were not staffed to accommodate the 200 guests. When the reception was supposed to start, the DJ and I started going around cocktail hr telling guests to make their way to their seats. As the matron of honor and the DJ - we should NOT have been doing Sharon's job for her. She is PAID TO DO HER JOB. Once everyone was seated and dinner was about to be served... I WAS SERVED BEFORE THE BRIDE AND GROOM. It took well over an hr close to 2 to serve all guests their food. They also didn't serve a whole table at a time. Food was handed out at random. Best part right here - THEY RAN OUT OF DESSERTS. I have never once been to a wedding where they ran out of desserts. NEVER. I also had to feed the vendors granola bars because they did not get fed until 10:30 pm. All I can say is - stay clear of this venue. You will surely regret it. Luckily I was able to hide everything from the bride and groom but guests are also starting to complain to them. Save your money and go to a better wedding venue that has a competent wedding coordinator that knows what she's doing.
We had our wedding a Greate Bay on 5/18/2019 Sharon and Manuel were very attentive. The staff of Greate Bay made our day fabulous and memorable. Everyone was very friendly and they all went above and beyond. We highly recommend this place for your next big event.
Greate Bay was the perfect place to have our wedding. The staff was extremely hard working and dedicated to making our day very special. They were very responsive whenever I had a question throughout the planning process and they were able to accommodate any special requests that we had. We were able to take pictures outside by the gazebo and they turned out beautiful! Our guests still rave about the food and the venue. We would definitely recommend Greate Bay for anyone who may have an upcoming wedding!
Greate Bay was amazing! Everything was more then perfect! The food and drinks were amazing and Savario made our day run beautifully! He made sure everything was on time and that we had something to eat! Everyone at the venue was so awesome!
I wanted to add to my review from my 9/2/18 wedding. Kudos to Maria as well for setting up the room and centerpieces so beautifully.
When a venue fell through for my daughter's May, 2018 wedding five months before the date, Greate Bay, with the assistance of the wonderful Sharon Ireland, came through to save the day! Greate Bay has taken over the Ocean City, NJ Yacht Club as a venue and helped us give our daughter and son-in-law the wedding of their dreams. Highly, highly recommended!
My wedding was on October 6th 2018, and can I say that Greate Bay was awesome. Everyone raved about the venu and how great the food was as well as how everything turned out. Sharon helped me so much especially since I was planning this wedding from out of town. She was easy to reach and always answered every question. Their staff their is amazing I was waited on hand and foot but the waiting staff I always had what I wanted and never had an empty drink. The place is beautiful and using the bridal suite and locker rooms made getting ready so much easier. My ceremony was even held on the beach and they did everything to make sure it turned out exactly how I evvisioned it. They even used all my decorations that I had bought and wanted out. POverall, I would recommend greate bay to anyone who is planning on getting married!
We had our wedding here last may and it was amazing. The staff took care of almost everything and made us feel so calm and happy. They were flexible with us and took all our feedback. I was so happy with how it all turned out. Everyone was so responsive and I never waited too long for anything. And you cant beat the price.
Had our wedding on 10/13/18 and hands down the best day of our lives. Beautiful venue, lots of indoor/outdoors space, and best of all, responsive staff (we didn't even need to hire a wedding planner!) answered all our calls, emails within 24 hours. This was very important as we were mostly planning this wedding remotely, living about 3-4 hours away from the venue. This place has one of the most competitive all-inclusive packages we have seen in terms of ceremony, decorations, cake, premium open bar, tons of included appetizers during cocktail hour plus we received special discounts for booking late on a date that happened to be open! All of this inclusive without sacrificing quality. We were even able to throw in a custom made ice sculpture for a very reasonable price, which they lighted beautifully during our cocktail hour. Also their recommended DJ was phenomenal and the venue was also very accommodating to our 2 videographers and 2 photographers who all arrived a little early to take some first look photos. Can't wait to post pics, it was truly a beautiful day.
I can't say enough good things about Greate Bay, Sharon & Megan. Five stars doesn't even begin to explain how amazing they are. They helped along the way with any suggestions, recommendations or just to be there to talk through things. My wedding was at the Ocean City Yacht Club and they made themselves available to meet over there to go through ideas when needed. My wedding was literally even more perfect than I could have ever imagined. They helped with any last minute things that were needed the day of the wedding at the Yacht Club or just anything in general. Megan was there throughout the night making sure that everyone had everything that they needed and were having a great time. Everyone had SO much fun at my wedding & literally at one point everyone was on the dance floor. I cannot thank you both enough & the country club for helping me have an amazing night. From the help, the food, the drinks to everything in between, from the bottom of my heart- thank you. Don't think twice about booking with them!
We had our wedding here recently and could not have been more happy with this choice!
Sharon was so incredible and helpful with every detail (we emailed questions to her at least once a month)
The food was beyond good and the staff was friendly and helpful.
We loved the cake (Bake Works) bar options and locker room set up for getting ready (I would highly suggest the fruit and sandwich trays)
Our guests were happy and I could not have imagined that day any more special! Thank you so much for giving us our dream wedding
Ocean City Yacht Club was absolutely breathtaking for our wedding!! Our guests were raving about the incredible views, and the ceremony outside on the dock was perfect. The space inside is ideal for dancing, and the whole place gives an intimate feel. Greate Bay Country Club took over the planning and catering halfway through our planning process, and did a great job of making sure we got exactly what we wanted! The food from Greate Bay was incredible, and the entire day ran flawlessly. If you’re looking for a unique venue at the shore, we would highly recommend OCYC and Greate Bay!
We had our wedding at Greate Bay on June 9th 2018. It was absolutely amazing! Sharon and Tammy are the best and were so helpful through everything, which was awesome for me because I had to plan my wedding from 6 hours away. Tammy sat down with me one day and went over all the decorations we wanted to have at the reception and cocktail hour and everything was perfect. The day of was raining off and on and Sharon assured me all would be good for an outside ceremony and when the rain finally stopped she was out there quickly setting up chairs so the ceremony could start. Tammy and Sharon go above and beyond to help with whatever you need and I could not have planned a wedding without them. I would highly recommend Greate Bay and cannot thank them both enough!
Greate Bay CC in Somers Point, NJ, did a fantastic job on my daughter's wedding reception on Saturday, May 5, 2018. We were thrilled with the professionalism and courtesy we received as we planned a large (180 guests) reception in a fairly short engagement of six months.
We received great advice and support from Director of Catering Sales Sharon Ireland and Banquet ManagerTammy Seuff. Between the two of them, they have close to 60 years of experience in planning events. That experience really helped us.
Our guests raved about the food, the service, and the courtesy of the waitstaff to a disabled guest. Tammy Seuff took our idea for centerpieces and executed it flawlessly. She also decorated the cocktail room and the main dining room exactly as we had discussed. She even added some nice touches we had not thought of.
We were also impressed with the help Greate Bay provided with our beachfront wedding ceremony in Ocean City. Greate Bay provided the chairs, the decorative trellis, and the manpower to set up and remove them. The chairs arrived as planned at 3pm for a 4:30 ceremony and were removed promptly afterwards, which was important because our daughter got married on a very popular public beach.
The club also had a comprehensive list of recommended vendors. We used their list for the cake vendor, the DJ, the photographer and the transportation.
Greate Bay was the first call we made based on its reputation and we are very glad we did. As the mother of the bride who did the planning for my out of town daughter, I was very impressed.
Greate Bay was an exceptional venue for my daughters wedding on 10/13. The weather was not cooperative (20mph winds on the beach and cold), but Sharon went out of her way to set it up and make it beautiful! Tammy set up the rooms beautifully using not only our stuff, but a few decorations of her own as well. The staff was professional and courteous. All of the guests enjoyed the great happy hour presentations and the buffet dinner was fabulous. I would recommend this venue to anyone that asks!! Great job!
My wedding day was absolutely perfect all thanks to Greate Bay! The food was absolutely delicious and all my guests loved it too. The country club was the only place my husband and I looke at for a venue and knew that it was the perfect place. The grounds are gorgeous and Sharon and Tammy were so helpful in making sure we were taken care of on our wedding day. It's the perfect place and affordable!!
Greate Bay handled everything perfectly for my wedding on 09/23/2017. Tammy and Sharon were a great team and both helped with anything I asked for along the way. They understood my vision and set up all the decorations so nicely for the reception. Everyone said the food was great! Everyone also raved about how nice the bartenders were at the wedding. Every time I turned around someone was making sure I had a drink or had enough food or if I needed anything. We had a great night!
Greate Bay did an amazing job on our wedding. Sharon made everything so special and made sure we had the wedding of our dreams. Tammy always made sure I was ok and if I needed anything. Thank you for everything!
We had our wedding their in April of 2017. Absolutely perfect. Although it ended up raining that day the inside ceremony was lovely and they made every effort to make it special. Sharon was very helpful through out the entire process. Everyone loved the food. Would definitely recommend the place.
I can’t say enough about how easy it was to work with Sharon. Her responses were quick and clear. Tammy made all my Pinterest ideas come true!!! The food was amazing and never ending! Thank you all the beautiful memories made on my wedding day!
My wedding was on August 12, 2017. Great Bay went above and beyond to make sure everything was just perfect! They were so easy to work with and anytime I had questions they quickly got back to me. My bridal party got ready in the suite which worked out perfect. We were able to relax and just enjoy the day and not feel rushed to get from one place to the other. It poured all morning long and through out the time I was getting ready they continued to check on us to make sure we were ok and to reassure us that everything would work out for the ceremony. It stopped raining 2 hours before we were set to be married outside. It turned out to be the most perfect day the sun came out just in time! I made most of the decorations for my wedding and the added touches they put in to it and how they arranged it all was just how I envision it. The food was amazing from what we had in the bridal suite, to cocktail, dinner and the dessert we had with our cake. The staff was amazing throughout the whole day I highly recommend having an event at Greate Bay.
We had our wedding at Greate Bay Country Club in July. The staff at Greate Bay was top notch. Everything was so beautiful and perfect. The food was amazing, the landscape was gorgeous, and the staff was so friendly and attentive. They truly made the best day of our lives, the best day ever! We had a party afterward in the bar and the staff just continued to smile, even when it went late into the night and got crazy at times. I highly recommend having an event at the Greate Bay Country Club.
Greate bay was the best choice we could have picked for our wedding. Out of all the venues it was the best package for the right price. Everything from the actual County Club to the whole staff was beyond amazing! Sharon and tammy were exceptionally wonderful to work with throughout the whole wedding planning process. They were very accommodating to everything we needed. We had our ceremony out by the gazebo with the most perfect view:) All of guest can't stop raving about how delish all the food was especially the Prime rib!! The ballroom was very spacious and had the most elegant chandelier ever. Hands down I would recommend this venue to all the newly engaged brides out there!!!
Having our wedding at Greate Bay was such a good decision! From the moment we booked our day to pulling away after the reception, each part was made so seamless by the staff. Sharon and Tammy really helped us take our wedding to where we wanted it to be. As a bride, I was expecting a lot more stress but, Greate Bay did it all. Sharon organized our entire event and Tammy decorated the venue perfectly. We brought some of our own decorations and they knew exactly what to do with them. They really worked with us to make sure we had everything we wanted. Also, our photos on the golf course turned out beautifully! I would 100% recommend Greate Bay for your wedding venue.
We recently had our daughter's wedding at Ocean City Yacht Club presented by Greate Bay. With the recent acquisition of dining and events by Greate Bay, we were not exactly sure what to expect but we couldn't have asked for more. From the sumptuous cocktail hour to the delicious sit-down dinner and dessert, everything was perfect. The views overlooking the bay with a picture perfect sunset created a beautiful backdrop to the festivities. Kudos to the catering director, Sharon Ireland, Chef Jack Whelan and their staff for a memorable event.
We just had our daughter and son-in-law’s wedding at Greate Bay Country Club. I can’t begin to tell you how wonderful everything was. Everything turn out perfect. Thank You Sharon for making our daughter’s wedding day so special.
I can't say enough about how wonderful (or should I say Greate) Greate Bay was and how happy we are that we chose it as our venue for our August 2017 wedding! Sharon helped us along the way starting from our first look of the venue, answering my random questions (even when early in the morning I asked for the gazebo opening height for fabric sizing) quickly, planning, and of course the big day (she was present enough to check in to make sure things were going as planned and we were taken care of, but not overly up in our faces!)
We chose the outside ceremony by the lake/gazebo and the area is beautifully landscaped allowing for a wonderful backdrop to all of our pictures. Food and service during the wedding was all top notch. The venue is the first part of planning your "best day ever" and Greate Bay made our dreams a reality!
Where do I begin? The staff at Greate Bay went above and beyond for us. They were so helpful and answered all my questions. During the reception, so many of our guests commented on how wonderful the staff/servers/bartenders were. Anytime I needed anything, they were right there for me. All of our guests said how amazing the food was! One guest said it was the best wedding food they ever had! The setup of the cocktail hour and reception rooms exceeded my expectations. Greate Bay helped make our wedding day PERFECT!!
Greate Bay Country Club was perfect for our big day. We had a beach ceremony and then returned to Greate Bay for the reception. Sharon and Tammy did a fantastic job of getting everything set up and making the transition easy and worry free. They worked with our musician to get him set up on the beach in close proximity to an outlet so they could run extension cords to their equipment. Sharon was always easy to get a hold of and was able to answer all questions in a timely fashion. Our photographer and florist really enjoyed working with such a great venue. Sharon and Tammy left us worry free and allowed us to sit back, relax, and enjoy our big day! The Country Club is beautiful and has a great flow to it for weddings.
Two days prior to the wedding Greate Bay allowed a large group of the play a discounted round of golf. We were put in a shotgun start with the members who were more than accommodating and friendly. The day of the wedding the guys got ready in the locker room. The bartender in the restaurant and the members hanging out were all extremely friendly and made us feel at home. I would highly recommend Greate Bay to anyone getting married down in the area.
My wedding was October 22, 2016 and the memories we made there thanks to Greate Bay Country Club's professional and attentive staff, great food and beautifully and exquisitely decorated room with be with us forever. Everyone--family, friends and others---commented on how good everything tasted and plentiful, and the beautiful and colorful surroundings that enhanced their enjoyment and ours. They catered to our every need.
We would recommend them for any occasion. Our wedding was in the Bay Room with a deck outside for smoking guests or those who just need a breath of fresh air. The Bridal Suite gave the Bridal party a chance to freshen up and gain some privacy before entering the reception room.
Do yourself a favor and save a lot of time by stopping by and speaking with Sharon, the Catering Director, who will patiently and thoroughly explain all the options available and provide you with handouts including packages available, which can include wedding cake and champagne toast options and anything else your heart desires from brunch to a formal dinner and more. Of course the beautiful golf course and grounds which include a gazebo, is the perfect backdrop for your outdoor pictures.
Thank you Greate Bay for making our wedding memorable from start to finish!
We had our wedding on 10/08/16 ... yes in the middle of Hurricane Matthew! The food... amazing! The Drinks... Amazing! The wait staff and the bartenders... amazing!! I can't begin to tell you how great of an experience we had a Greate Bay Country Club. Tammy is unbelievable and Colleen our main server was there with a drink every time we turned around. The GM, Ron is a people's person and makes you feel at home. I can't wait to make GBCC a yearly tradition on our anniversary. Just thinking about the day makes me want to happen over and over again!!!
Amazing Venue! We recently had our wedding and reception at the Greate Bay Country Club on September 24, 2016. The venue was absolutely beautiful. The staff was professional, friendly, patient and accommodating to all of my requests. Sharon went above and beyond in making sure that everything during the planning process and on the day of the event was taken care of. In addition, both Tammy and Anita did an excellent job taking care of our guests - they were always accessible, friendly and courteous. The food was delicious and the bridal suite was top-notch and beautiful. The details of the venue really portrayed the elegance of how special this day was to us. I would highly recommend the Greate Bay Country Club! We love it there.

John and I would like to thank you and the staff of Greate Bay for a beautiful wedding experience. Casey said it was the wedding of her dreams! Joe said it was better than it ever imagined.

We were so impressed with Greate Bay! We got married on May 28th, 2016 and it was a GREATE DAY! Sharon was accommodating since the beginning and tailored our wedding to what we wanted! She continued to be helpful up until the day before the wedding! On the day of, it was just beautiful!! The room just sparkled! The guest still rave about the food, it was just incredible! Everything, from the appetizers to the dinner to the dessert! The bartenders were phenomenal! They did not stiff our guests on the pour! All staff members were very attentive and helpful! We just cannot say enough!
The food was good and the grounds were pretty But there were a lot of problems with the wedding director, organization and scheduling . lucky we had a amazing day due to weather and our family .08/02/16
Greate Bay worked hard to make our wedding day everything we ever imagined it would be! Sharon met with us several times to discuss all of the important details and worked with us to meet all of our needs within our desired budget. Tammy ensured that all of the decorative elements we wanted were met and our wedding turned out to be absolutely beautiful. We were so pleased with our experience from start to finish and wish we could do it all over again!
Great wedding venue! My wedding day there was perfect and my guest raved about the food. Sharon was very helpful!
Greate Bay was wonderful. The accommodated me from the very beginning. I had a small wedding but they still made be feel special and important the whole way. Tammy and Sharon are truly wonderful! Food was great and service was awesome. We had both our ceremony and reception there and they did a great job with both.
We had a beach ceremony and small reception in June 2016. We worked with Sharon. Everything from the ceremony to the reception was absolutely PERFECT! The food was delicious!! Our family and friends also agreed. The Bay Room was beautiful. Our guests loved the outside deck. Sharon made sure everything ran smoothly. I was never stressed out once during the planning process. The staff took great care of us all night long. I would highly recommend Greate Bay!!
Greate Bay is amazing!!!! Sharon and Tammy are the best at what they do. They were so accommodating with everything. I asked last minute if we could hold the rehearsal dinner at Greate Bay and Sharon was on it and set up a wonderful menu to accommodate my family and friends. The ballroom is very spacious and can hold a lot of people without feeling cramped or over crowded. The decor was beautiful and the bridal suite was perfect for me and my two bridesmaids. The wedding was June 3, 2016 and the flowers outside were beautiful. Highly recommended.
The staff at Greate Bay did an AMAZING job! They helped to make the whole wedding planning process super easy. The food was amazing and the whole night was great! They had every detail perfect! It was the most amazing day!
The goal of our wedding was to throw the best party ever (celebrating our union, of course). Greate Bay was by far the best decision we could have made for our ceremony and reception! Nearly every guest we spoke with after the wedding commented on how it was the most fun they have ever had at a wedding! I highly suggest you use Greate Bay if you are considering the South Jersey area for your wedding!
Greate Bay is fantastic!
Everyone at Great Bay is wonderful. Especially Sharon and Tammy. Even though they deal with hundreds of brides every year, I felt really important and taken care of by them. They listened to what I wanted and worked with me to make it happen! They were very flexible too, which is really important and made my life a lot easier.
I can't recommend this venue enough!
Greate Bay is absolutely amazing!!!! My husband and I could not have been more impressed. We got married last year on November 8,2014. It was the perfect fall wedding. Greate Bay staff was helpful every step of the way. All my guest Complimented me on how delicious the appetizers and entrees were. The venue is has been newly renovated and looks incredible. I would HIGHLY recommend Greate Bay for your wedding venue.

Greate Bay Country Club was the perfect venue for our wedding! We held both our ceremony and reception at Greate Bay. The venue is beautiful, the staff amazing, and quality of the food is exceptional. Tammy went above and beyond my my expectations and ensured that our wedding day was perfect. She answered all of my crazy emails, phone calls, and texts. Greate Bay is an amazing venue and I highly recommend the location.
We had our reception here on 7/25/15. We were very pleased with how it turned out. We were able to drop things off Friday night to be set up Saturday. I was nervous that everything would be put out and nicely but it exceeded my expectations. Tammy and her staff did a phenomenal job with everything. We got so many compliments on the food!!! They even brought us appetizers in the bridal suite when we got there. I highly recommend Greate Bay!
