Pier Suite Events was absolutely everything I wanted in a venue and more. Since they first opened, I knew I wanted to get married there. When mother nature didn’t cooperate on our special day, our back up plan was just as beautiful as we had im...

agined our day being. The owners, Michelle and Laura, are as equally incredible. When we had to execute the last minute back up plan, their team along with my coordinators, made sure everything was perfect. Earlier in the process when they learned I was having issues with the vendor, they reached out and offered to help in anyway possible. I can’t say enough good things about Pier Suite Events and both Michelle and Laura . If you are looking for a venue for your wedding day, look no further.

I had the most beautiful wedding day at Pier Suite! Michelle and Laura were the absolute best. They were very responsive, answered every question, walked me through the best table/chair setup, were communicative throughout the planning process,...

and were avaliable to my coordinator the day of the wedding when she had questions. We even talked the day after the wedding. I could not have asked for a more beautiful venue or better owners to work with. So glad I choose Pier Suite!

My husband and I knew we wanted to do a destination wedding, but with the chaos of life I knew right from the start that planning our wedding was going to be time consuming and stressful. Michelle and Laura helped make our wedding everything we...

imagined it would be! We chose to do their micro wedding package and Pier Suite took majority of the stress away for us! They connected us with vendors which helped eliminate a lot of the decision making for us so we could focus on some of the more intimate details of the wedding. Our wedding day was nothing short of spectacular with amazing views, plenty of space for our party, and the ladies at Pier Suite were willing to accommodate for our party that turned much bigger than we had planned. Michelle stayed connected with us the whole time and was very responsive to emails answering all of our questions and very friendly. Thank you, Pier Suite, for providing such a beautiful venue for us to share such an incredible experience with our family and taking care of all the big things so we could enjoy the small moments.

venue, always so quick and responsive to our requests and worries, assisted with other vendor recommendations, truly doubled as a coordinator at times as well. The venue space is definitely not meant for a group larger than 100 but with my group of 90-95, we fit just perfectly and the views from this venue are to die for. Perfect spot for a beachside ceremony, quick walk up and party in the venue overlooking the beach/city. Highly recommend the venue and the team.
