We recently had our rehearsal dinner at Harbour Town Yacht Club in October 2024, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience. We cannot speak more highly of the process and staff...

Planning an event from another state can be challenging, but Jory, the event coordinator, made it seamless. Despite never having seen or visited the venue in person, Jory’s prompt and cordial responses, along with her thorough understanding of costs and possibilities, made the planning process stress-free. She was full of ideas, feedback on our own ideas, and was very thorough in ensuring we understood the cost of our event.
The venue itself is stunning, located in the heart of The Sea Pines Resort on Hilton Head Island. Harbour Town Yacht Club offers breathtaking views of the sound and is marked by the iconic red-and-white-striped Harbour Town Lighthouse. The setting provides a perfect backdrop for any special occasion, with its elegant and sophisticated ambiance. We were lucky enough to have great weather and hosted our cocktail hour on the 4th floor rooftop. Guests were able to enjoy a drink with the beautiful views, and it truly made it a special event for us!
Jory was incredibly helpful with ideas and remained flexible on the day of the event. All we had to do was show up, and her team had everything beautifully set up and ready to go. The event was executed flawlessly, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Harbour Town Yacht Club to anyone looking to host a special event.
The Harbour Town Yacht Club was the perfect place for our 85 guest wedding reception. We had long dreamed of our wedding taking place here, and it was nothing short of a fairytale ...
day. Jory was an absolute pleasure to work with, making the entire wedding planning process a breeze. From menu tasting to day of changes, HTYC made this day one we will never forget!
We had our son’s rehearsal dinner and welcome cocktails here and I can't rave enough about the amazing experience we had with Jory. She was friendly, professional, knowledgeable,...
helpful and an absolute joy to work with from beginning to end – no task was too big or small for her to handle since we were planning from several hundred miles away! I can’t overstate the impact she had on how wonderful our events were. Adding to the experience, the view was picture perfect and the chef outdid himself not only with original suggestions, but the flawless execution of our dinner. The gourmet meal set the tone for the entire wedding weekend and I am absolutely grateful. Harbour Town Yacht Club is a true gem of an event venue!
This was such an amazing venue to host a small and intimate wedding reception. Our wedding took place the Harbour town Lighthouse and was a quick walk over to the reception. Jory V...
ick was our event planner and she made the whole process easy and fun! Jory took detailed notes, made great recommendations, and was very responsive through out the whole process! This was an amazing venue for a wedding reception and everyone raved about the food! We couldn’t be happier with the service that Jory provided and we couldn’t of done it without her! Highly recommend the Yacht club for such a beautiful venue, great food, and amazing customer service!

I am SO happy we decided to do our reception at HTYC. The views, the food, the staff everything was beyond what I could have imaged. I gave Jory my decor and she made the room look amazing! Thank you SO much Jory, truly thankful for you!
We had our rehearsal dinner at the Yacht Club and I cannot recommend it more. We worked with Jory to plan it, and she is a absolute delight to work with! She was so instrumental ...
in making our dinner so perfect, and it really was! She has the patience of an angel and is a true professional and such a hard worker. The food at the Yacht Club was awesome and the view is unmatched! I highly recommend it as a wedding event spot!
This venue is a hidden gem and we are so grateful we stumbled upon it. This is by far the most beautiful venue to get married in Sea Pines not to mention Hilton Head Island. All th...
e other venues we checked out in Sea Pines were beautiful but did not compare to Harbour Town Yacht Club and they cost 3x more - after we booked it the entire time I kept thinking what the catch? There is no catch!! Our wedding day was spectacular, with an unreal sunset over the horizon overlooking the lighthouse - there are no views that can compare to it, the venue is elegant, recently updated with all the amenities you could ask for. We did our ceremony on the deck with over 100 guests, cocktail hour on the deck, dinner inside and dancing on the patio. We were cautioned against having over 100 people as this is a smaller venue, but I loved it and instead had a lively feel and not cramped or crowded. Jory is a dream, she executed everything perfectly and the food was delicious - we had a seated meal with steak, salmon, hors d'oeuvrs all cooked to perfection. I am still in awe from how well the day was executed and that we were able to have such an elegant wedding for a fraction of the price. Truly spectacular. If you are getting married in Hilton Head, don't look anywhere else. You can not get service, views, location like Harbour Town Yacht Club.
Everyone was great to work with and the food was amazing!!! Beautiful venue and excellent service
Absolutely wonderful service provided by Jory! She made the busiest day of my life run smoothly! We even got to assist with decorating for the venue (so we took some incredible pic...
tures then)! What a beautiful scene to say "I do!"
I can't rate Harbour Town Yacht Club highly enough. Jory was so helpful right from the start, making sure my the wedding was exactly the way I wanted it. Our 50 guests fit with ton...
s of extra space, and they all raved about the food. You have to use them for the food, and to get the upper deck you need a very attainable $5,000 minimum. We had the ceremony on the deck and rested easily knowing that, if it rained, we had a back up under inside. The backdrop of our whole wedding was the lighthouse, which was just stunning. I would, however, recommend that you encourage guests to bring sunglasses, as the sun sets behind the lighthouse. Looks beautiful and makes for great photos, but your guests will be squinting. Again, I just loved this venue. It was perfect, reasonable, and in a great location.
