- Elizabeth Buyrn"Boss Lady"Elizabeth grew up on Eyreville, climbing all the trees in the yard and roaming the property on her horses. Always the one to seek good times, gather friends, enjoy the moment and take all the photos, she is thrilled to begin this adventure in helping couples curate their wildest dreams for their special day.
- Roger Buyrn"Director of Operations"Roger is the self-proclaimed Jack of all trades that has kept this place going for decades and the biggest supporter of his daughter, Elizabeth. Being a farmer, conservationist, waterfowl enthusiast and lover of history, his appreciation and stewardship of Eyreville is near and dear to his heart. Lend him an ear and he'll lead you on a journey of stories. Perhaps "Master Host" should be his title!
- Kevin Grubb"The Man w/ the Plan"As the partner of Elizabeth, Kevin has his hands full, to say the least. He brings fresh ideas to the table and is a driving force to implement them. With a background in heavy equipment operation and contracting, while owning his own charter fishing company and helping Roger on the farm, it's hard to believe he has time to cut grass, but he does that too!
- Bill Scalley"Head of Maintenance"If there is one thing constant, it's that Bill is making progress on the latest project Elizabeth has thrown at him. He is responsible for so many improvements to the property, and his attention to detail is evident in the fine work he does. Speaking of fine, in his past life, he was the chef/owner of a local fine dining restaurant that Elizabeth worked at in her teens. We're happy to have him on our team!

Fabulous venue! The Buyrns are very accommodating and the sunset view over the water was gorgeous. Plenty of parking. Signs for directions on where to go, and where to park were ve...
ry well placed. The historical house and buildings are a great backdrop for photos, as well as the waterfront.
The oyster house was the biggest "WOW" for me. It was set up beautifully for our buffet style dinner. It's a neat old building and architecturally quite interesting; a step back in time.
I definitely recommend Eyreville as a venue if you are looking for people that will help decrease the stress of putting together a gathering and go above board to see that your time there is exceptional.
As a side note, the caterers really liked working at Eyreville. Running water in a big sink, a refrigerator provided, easy access to electrical outlets and a lovely view, made them quite happy with the venue.
