ppiness. Our guests are still raving saying this was one of the best weddings they ever attended. Every single little detail was well thought out, and beautifully executed. John was extremely knowledgeable, and such a pleasure to work with. He was so helpful throughout the planning process, and made sure everything went seamlessly leading up to (and the day of) our wedding. John is so kind, and made sure our families were well taken care of throughout the day. The food was on another level. Everything was beyond delicious, and presented so beautifully. My husband and I took our photos before our ceremony, so we got to enjoy the incredible cocktail hour with our guests. The deck overlooking the water is such a picturesque location, and we lucked out with the most gorgeous early summer day. The space is so beautifully designed, and the views are incredible. We could not recommend this venue (and John) enough. John and his staff made sure everything ran flawlessly, and helped make our day everything we dreamed of and more! The icing on the cake was the after-party in the basement. It was such a perfect way to wrap up the most incredible day. Thank you John & PBYC team for everything! We love you!

To say that our wedding at the PBYC was the wedding of our dreams is an understatement…words cannot begin to describe how exceptional the entire experience was! From the outset, we knew we had made the right decision when picking our venue. W...
orking with John over the last year was an absolute pleasure. His kindness, support, experience, and sense of humor made the entire process easy. Despite the fact that the last year and a half has been beyond difficult dealing with COVID, health restrictions, social distancing and countless unknowns, John was always there with a smile, a joke, and reassurances for us. Any questions we had were addressed immediately. By the time our wedding came around we were beyond confident that everything was going to run smoothly. And then came our wedding day. It was truly beautiful and while the weather certainly played a role in that, the Yacht Club itself was the perfect setting. Everything looked beautiful! John and the staff at the PBYC work hard to make the place an absolutely stunning venue, from the lawn overlooking the bay where we had our ceremony, to the upstairs patio where our guests enjoyed the best cocktail hour imaginable, to the main dining room with it’s picture perfect views of the marina and greater bay beyond. Pictures are just starting to roll in and they are stunning! We also have to note how amazing the entire staff working that day were. Our guests are still remarking on how fabulous the service was. No one wanted for anything. We were fortunate enough to have Hillary work with us as our bridal attendant that day; she was phenomenal! She was always there at our side whenever we needed a drink, a bite to eat, or just a reminder to take some time for ourselves if we needed to. Thanks to her, John, and everyone else, we were able to relax, enjoy our family and friends, and have the best time ever. We cannot begin to thank John and everyone at the PBYC for making our special day an amazing one with memories that we will treasure for years to come!

eauty of the property, the stunning views, the character of each floor, and the creative ways you can use the venue. Most importantly what really stood out was how amazing the hospitality was. You will never find a better GM than John. When we first met him, he immediately put us at ease while planning our wedding during a pandemic. The support he showed us this past year leading up to our wedding day, was one of the many reasons why we were so thankful we chose PBYC. John was honest, always optimistic, stayed on top of providing us with Covid updates, and was so timely with communication (no matter what day or time I would email him!). On our wedding day, we continued to be blown away by the professionalism and kindness from the rest of the PBYC staff. Special shout out to Michelle (bridal attendant), for making my day effortless. She was at my side whenever I needed her with a smile on her face, and so quick to get the task done! She provided me with veil and bouquet help, food & water during the busy moments, organized my belongings, and everything else in between. The rest of the staff went above and beyond as well – from unloading and packing up our wedding items, hustling to make sure everyone was happy, giving us impeccable service and always checking in with my husband and I to make sure our day was perfect. Not to mention the food at both the cocktail hour and reception was hands down amazing! Our guests are still raving about it! The PBYC staff made us feel like the only wedding of the season, they were like family to us that day. We will forever be grateful for all that they did (no detail went unnoticed) and we are thankful for all the unexpected additions to the night. On behalf of Nico and I, our families, and guests - THANK YOU! We owe it all to you for helping make our dream day come to life. It was a 4th of July wedding that we will never forget!

When we decided to reschedule our June 2020 wedding due to the pandemic, John made it so easy and the process was seamless—he was constantly checking in on us and providing us with updates as New York restrictions were lifted. We were finally able to have the wedding of our dreams this July—John and all the staff at Peconic Bay Yacht Club were amazing and made our day so perfect. Our family and friends raved about the location, the food and how beautiful the venue was and how awesome John was. This venue is a MUST and so so worth it! Thank you John and thank you to all the staff at PBYC!!! We love you!

We spent three months looking at over 20 wedding venues in NYC, Hudson Valley and the Hamptons before deciding on Peconic Bay Yacht Club. It was the last place we saw and easily the most beautiful. The venue itself is pristine and the views are...
stunning. Even on a cloudy day it's a gorgeous spot. John (the GM) is incredibly responsive and flexible and he's assembled an amazing team that goes above and beyond. Many of our picky guests commented on how phenomenal the food was (best wedding food we've ever had) as well as how great the staff was. As the bride, I felt more than taken care of before and during our wedding day. All I had to do was think about needing a sip of water, and a glass would appear. It was a completely magical day that more than exceeded our expectations. We also worked with At Your Service Party Rentals for many of the extras we wanted for the event and they were outstanding. If you want a wedding venue that has stunning water views and is extremely high touch, look no further. We couldn't possibly recommend Peconic Bay Yacht Club (and John and his team) more.

To set the scene here, we don’t typically write reviews, I actually don’t think I ever have!! My husband and I are from NYC but spend a ton of time out in the North Fork. We just hosted our wedding at PBYC this past weekend and we are both feel...
very strongly about recommending the venue to anyone looking for an elevated, out of the ordinary wedding experience. VENUE: From the moment we viewed the venue back in 2017 we knew it was the place for us. We spent so much time looking at spaces in both NYC and out east that always fell short for my very high standards. We were looking for either fall or winter timeframe and really struggled to find a venue that had the elements of water/ocean but also felt very estate like and wintery. PBYC is typically used for summer weddings given its prime North Fork waterfront location and nautical feel. What we loved most about the PBYC were the interiors in the actual building itself. The finishings/decor/layout are super classic, upscale and you can tell the owners but some money into the renovations. I don’t think I could pick a favorite room if I tried, I love them all! PBYC was a no brainer for us style wise, it fit us perfectly! STAFF: What closed the deal for me was how truly impressive, charming (and witty) venue manager, John is. We were quite tough customers, requiring a larger than average sized party, many extras and “special requests” and John handled everything quickly and flawlessly. He even got along with my very difficult and opinionated mother (and me, I’m also really tough...) John always makes himself available, there were many times we happened to “stop by” the area with very little notice and he always accommodated a visit. Upon our wedding day, the PBYC staff went above and beyond to ensure both families had everything they needed for getting ready/photos and bridal suites. John even helped my mom with tables and accent details, I’m pretty sure that’s not his job!! FOOD: The food is creative, uniquely displayed, ABSOLUTELY delicious. You can tell the kitchen team takes pride in presentation and making your day a very out of the ordinary food experience for guests. The venue does a very elegant cocktail hour with a focus on passed hors d'oeuvres that are super pretty and well displayed. We chose to do a European style dinner, where guests move to the first floor ball room for a formal sit down dinner, and then back upstairs for a massive dance party. Full disclosure I was nervous how this style wedding would pan out, but it turned out amazing and we got a ton of compliments on how guests actually enjoyed not holding a plate at cocktail hour and moving on from dinner with no return to their table :) Again, so many compliments on the food - get the scallops!! I know everyone says that their wedding was the “best wedding ever” but I’m losing count now of how many guests have gone out of their way to compliment the venue, food, party, staff, attention to detail, John himself- you name it! We’ve been to countless weddings ourselves and this was seriously the BEST party we’ve ever been apart of. It was such an elevated classy event and we are THRILLED. Huge thank you to John and his staff for an unforgettable day. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for an elevated, “not your average” wedding experience ;)

f everything and very knowledgable - he was so pleasant to work with and really made us feel special. I don't think more than a few hours went by before he answered one of my emails, even on the weekends!! I couldn't have been more thrilled with how everything was executed the day of our wedding. We did not hire a day-of coordinator, and we didn't need to because John and his staff took care of everything! Setting up the tables, lighting the candles just before the reception, making sure our place cards were set up nice on the escort card table - everything was taken care of for us. Even our band told us that PBYC was one of the easiest venues they have ever worked with. Every one of the PBYC staff members were pleasant and courteous to us and our guests and went out of their way to make everyone feel welcomed (shoutout to Billy and Noah). They were honestly phenomenal. We had purchased copper mule mugs for one of our signature drinks, which we were hoping to get back after the wedding. When we returned the day after our wedding to retrieve some things we had left there, every single one of the copper mule mugs were cleaned and re-packaged in their original boxes, ready for us to pick up. The food is also amazing - you'll understand when you get to do the tasting. I would 100% recommend PBYC to anyone. It was worth every penny.

Most importantly, John and his staff went above and beyond in every single way possible when it came to planning our big day. While planning, we were told by so many people not to get too caught up in tiny details because inevitably something small can go wrong - I can honestly say that, not only did nothing go wrong, but everything was truly perfect - beyond what I could have even hoped for. John thought of every single detail imaginable, responded to every call/email immediately, and was there for us every step of the way. I didn't have a wedding planner or a day of planner, and I know that wouldn't have been remotely possible without John. My bridal attendant, Emily, was honestly my saving grace and I could not have imagined this day without her.

I wouldn't have changed one single thing about our wedding and cannot recommend the Peconic Bay Yacht Club place more!

We just returned from our honeymoon last night and the first thing we wanted to do today was write a review for John and the rest of the staff at Peconic Bay Yacht Club for giving us the wedding of our dreams. There is truly nothing we would ch...
ange about our experience from the first tour we took with John to when we boarded the bus home at the end of the night. John thought of every detail, responded to every question quickly, and made us feel like we were truly part of the family. The space itself is beautifully designed, the views are surreal, and the food was out of this world. We could not recommend this venue and everything/everyone that comes with it enough. Thank you so much John for everything you did to make our big day as special as it was!!!

5.0 My husband and I recently had our wedding at Peconic Bay Yacht Club and it was by far was the most magical day of our lives!!! The entire PBYC and Robbins Wolfe staff went above and beyond what we imagined. From the service, coordination, ...
organization, set-up, menu, cuisine, drinks, and everything else, we were impressed by the planning leading up to the wedding day and execution on the big day. John was so helpful and responsive from the day we started many months before our actual wedding day. On the wedding day, John was our maestro leading the entire event. He solved all the small and major problems that arose and made our bridal party and family feel so welcomed and comfortable. You don't have to worry or think about anything except for having a great time. Rain or shine, the venue is beautiful and warm. The food is delicious and there's so much of it! From cocktail hour and the amazing raw bar to the butler-passed dessert parade, everything was flavorful and well-executed. Our guests keep mentioning that it is the best food they've ever had at a wedding. The service was impeccable and we always had someone attending to us and our guests. Overall, we could not have had a better experience. John and the whole PBYC team made our dream wedding come true.

My husband and I got married at Peconic Bay Yacht Club back in November. When we first got engaged, we looked at so many venues (a dozen to be exact), and nothing even came close to PBYC. The venue is stunning- every detail in the design is f...
lawless. From our first email interaction, to our first venue tour and throughout the entire year long planning process- John, the General Manager was incredible. Absolutely incredible. His knowledge, attention to detail, and response time are unlike any other person I have had the pleasure of working with. John had an answer for everything, and often would respond within minutes of receiving my email. From our first interaction, John made us feel like he actually wanted our wedding there. A lot of the venues we saw, it was like they were doing us a favor by giving us a tour- not with John. Nothing was ever rushed, and he took the best care of us. John was everything you can wish for (and then some) in a venue General Manager The day of our wedding was flawless. John was instrumental in this. The food was incredible, not your typical catered wedding food. Guests are still raving about the food and the breath taking views three months later, thanks to Robbins Wolfe and their exquisite menu. Guests are also still talking about the caliber of service. There was no waiting in line for the bar or the bathroom. Each person at the table received their entree at the same exact time, it was next level service. I could not recommend PBYC more, it was an unbelievable experience working with John and team, especially in what can often be a stressful planning process. Book your wedding there, and know you are in good hands. Wish we could relive the day again!

From the moment we met John and saw the beautiful venue we knew this was the one. After an exhaustive search of venues in Manhattan, Brooklyn, the North Fork, the Hamptons and the Hudson Valley we were starting to think the venue we were envisi...
oning did not exist. PBYC met all of our requirements and more. John was super friendly, extremely helpful and always responsive. (He would answer our many late night emails within minutes) John is the gold standard for what every venue manger should be. After our wedding we had so many people reach out to us to tell us how amazing he was. We had no major hiccups thanks to John’s attention to detail, organization and preparation. Also, the venue is beyond stunning, it is absolutely breathtaking. From the gorgeous outdoor area on the water to the perfectly decorated interior (each area has its own personality) you will fall in love with the grounds. Throughout the day we utilized all of their spaces with an outdoor ceremony, cocktail hour on the balcony, dinner in the dining room, dancing on the 2nd floor and an after party in the Cellar Bar. Not only is PBYC a beautiful venue, but their partnership with Robbins Wolfe catering elevates the experience. The food was unique and absolutely delicious. We are still receiving messages from our guests that they are craving the burrata! The quality of the wine and spirits is above and beyond any other venue (and trust me, we have been to a lot of weddings!) We strongly recommend booking your big day at Peconic Bay Yacht Club. After touring the venue and meeting John you will know you ended up at the right place!

My wedding was here Memorial Day weekend, 2017. The staff, food (which is not your typical wedding catering- important to me as a personal chef), grounds and building were some of the best I've ever experienced and many of our guests would agr...
ee. Our ceremony was on the beautiful lawn overlooking Shelter Island and our cocktail hour was indoor/outdoor on the upper deck. We had 135 guests in the main ballroom which was the perfect number for comfortable seating and dancing for our guests with a 10 piece band. I would strongly recommend PBYC to anyone looking for an elegant, beach/nautical, romantic, delicious wedding venue.

I recently attended a wedding at the Peconic Bay Yacht Club and I do not know how any other wedding will top it! While words cannot do this venue justice, it was truly the most beautiful wedding I have ever been to. From the craftsmanship of th...
e building to the stunning view of Shelter Island, the hardest decision to make would be whether to have the wedding indoors or outdoors.
