Greate Bay Country Club

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!!

ve, 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!

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.

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!

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!

able for the amount of guests we had.

te bay hands down. Food is awesome !

ron) 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!

ng 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!!

ated 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.

y 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.

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.

per flexible and is willing to work with you to make your wedding the best day ever. 10/10 recommend Sharon & Greate Bay.

. People were saying "best wedding they have been to" Thank you to all at Greate Bay

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!

geous! 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!!

l 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!

nterpieces 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.

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!

ke 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!

ed 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!

rked 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.

n 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!!!
