The Inn at Longshore

band throughout the year and helped us make the proper changes with our other vendors. During the final month of planning, Laina was consistently on call for us - even providing us with her personal cell number for those random questions brides have in the middle of the night. We also had some last minute requests (and I mean LAST minute) that were met with a calm energy and complete understanding. Even guests were impressed with Laina's organization and determination at all times throughout the night! Ultimately, our wedding day was absolutely incredible and worth the wait. I can't imagine having our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception anywhere else. These incredible memories will last a lifetime & we owe a debt of gratitude to Laina and the entire staff at The Inn at Longshore!

ur stress -- and totally on top of everything -- we had complete faith that everything was getting done). The restrictions in CT lifted 3 days before my wedding and things were changing week over week and they treated us with grace and kindness as if we were their own family planning a wedding. Also, their list of preferred vendors is top notch, look no further, we loved everyone we spoke with, even those we didn't hire. Are you convinced yet? Just have your wedding here. You won't regret it.

as so accommodating and more than willing to assist with whatever we needed due to the change of date. Adrienne kept us up to date and informed of the changes they were implementing to keep us and our guests safe and was always willing to go the extra mile for a request, no matter what. She was such a pleasure to work with! I cannot thank Adrienne enough as she made our wedding day the BEST day ever! They really have thought of everything when it comes to hosting a wedding and I would highly recommend Longshore!! We just love you, Adrienne.

already told other couples they HAVE to book at Longshore for their nuptials. Thank you Longshore for the best wedding ever!

p of the way from the start of the planning process throughout the whole day. The staff at the Inn are also all amazing. Everyone is so friendly and attentive, and available to help anyone at anytime. The food by On the Marc is phenomenal, all of our guests were obsessed with the food, and hasn't stopped talking about it, especially the passed apps and pizza! If you want a perfect day at a gorgeous venue, the Inn at Longshore is the way to go!

urse, speaks for itself) but also the food! I want to give a special shoutout to Adrienne who was a just a breath of fresh air during the entire planning process. We went from planning an indoor wedding to an outdoor wedding to an indoor wedding, as well as cutting our guest list in half to our full guest list, she was always beyond responsive and had a reassuring answer for all of our concerns. I truly was so unbelievably grateful for her; I really can’t say it enough. Our wedding at longshore was above and beyond of what we could have ever imagined and I am so thankful for everyone that made it such a special day for us!

e was also very honest and gave me great recommendations as I planned the big day. I did all the planning myself, so having a coordinator included as part of the experience was a game changer. Laina was so kind and laid back, which helped keep me calm throughout the planning process. The tasting we attended was TO DIE FOR! The staff did a wonderful job making a romantic and fun dinner, even with all the Covid restrictions. Everyone was so flexible with us as details changed with the pandemic. On the day of the wedding, the staff was super responsive and helpful. They had ice, water, coffee, and tea waiting for us as we got ready. They managed all the different vendors as they arrived, so all I had to do was focus on getting ready and enjoying the big day. We got lucky with the weather and were able to have our ceremony and cocktail hour outside. The location is simply STUNNING. I never imagined I’d be able to get married in such a gorgeous setting. The cocktail hour was incredible - my guests are still talking about it being the best they have ever attended! The wood fired pizza station is INCLUDED and delicious! Our signature drinks were also delicious and refreshing - perfect for an early evening in July. Once inside for the reception, the staff had extra food for our bridal party while everyone was seated - they made sure we were well fed and had drinks all day and night. The service during the reception was outstanding and the ballroom was GORGEOUS. I can’t say enough good things about Laina and everyone at The Longshore who made our day truly picture perfect! I am sad it’s over! I wouldn’t change a thing! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

ation and amazing food. Laina, our coordinator, was extremely detail-oriented and made every stage of the planning of our wedding stress-free because of her support and professionalism. We had to postpone our wedding for one year because of Covid and Laina and The Inn at Longshore helped to make this difficult transition so much easier with constant communication and support. We can't imagine having our wedding anywhere else and highly recommend The Inn at Longshore for couples looking for a location that is not cookie cutter but truly unique and elegant.

ond throughout the planning, postponement and re-planning process to make sure that every single detail was executed perfectly. She took my phone calls, emails and a bunch of last minute changes in stride and helped me through even the smallest concerns. Although the ballroom at the Inn is gorgeous, we actually opted to use the outdoor tent for our reception and I could not be happier with how everything turned out. Our guests loved the opportunity to take pictures by the waterfront and enjoy cocktails, dinner and dessert with a spectacular view. No one could stop talking about the food either- it was amazing and there was so much of it. I would absolutely, 1000% recommend the Inn and their team to any future bride and groom. Cheers! Love, Mr. and Mrs. LaPorte 6.27.21.

py about it. SO we went to see a new venue that can safely host a 50-60 people wedding. We visited the inn and FELL IN LOVE! within 2 months of visiting it, we got married there this past April. Christine made this micro wedding possible and all within my "elopement" price range. She was so amazing with every little detail and kept me up to date with everything. The venue itself is very updated and new and has no carpet in the ballroom ( big plus i hate carpet), and we got use of both ballrooms ( one to get ready in the AM and other to party in) , the staff was all super super nice and helpful. Only not great thing was the bridal suite which was very 1990s New England and didn't match the updated decor of the venue itself so i didn't love how the bridal suite photos turned out ( photographer did amazing but the decor bugged me). Honestly, I can't wait to host another event with Christine at the Inn. Do yourself a favor and call them already!Now i have to find an excuse to cancel the other venue because even if we do a large wedding next year, we're going back to Christine!

staff were all amazing. Our wedding coordinator Adrienne worked with us from the beginning of the planning process to make sure every detail was as we had envisioned. She was extremely helpful and easy to work with through the entire process. They were especially accommodating and understanding of the ever changing Covid restrictions and worked with us along the way as restrictions changed. We cannot be more thankful for Adrienne and The Inn for being a part of our wedding day.

making due to COVID. Laina (our coordinator) stayed with us every step of the way working through a myriad of details to bring to life the most amazing wedding day for us. Laina is a calming presence and guiding light throughout the process - she's great at what she does!

ke the day feel special. I am so happy we chose The Inn for our wedding. We looked at several wedding venues and they all felt like wedding factories. When we went to the Inn it did not feel like a factory but rather a welcoming place to have a wedding. The venue is beautiful and right on the water. The inside of The Inn is open and pretty as well. The staff were all amazing! Laina was super helpful throughout the planning process and on the day of the wedding! The Inn works with a number of vendors and the vendors all have a great working relationship with the Inn. Every vendor we spoke to loved working with the Inn which was another plus to having the wedding at Longshore! We had perfect wedding day and it was all because of the staff at the Inn and Laina! We did not have to worry about anything! We had a wonderful day and would highly recommend the Inn to anyone looking for a wedding venue!

from maternity leave. I was nervous that that a new person getting to know us and what we wanted wouldn’t go well but it went perfectly fine! Laina went above and beyond with EVERYTHING. She was always quick to respond to emails from myself, my mom and my mother in law. She is very professional and treats you like a friend instead of a client. Our guests can’t stop raving about cocktail hour and how delicious the food was. We have had such a positive experience with longshore and wish we could Do it all over again!

tiful and all our vendors were impressed with venue and with the help they received. I will be returning here to have my baby shower, my future kids 16th bday, 50th vow renew and any other event I can’t host at my house. Can’t wait to see Christine again!!!

xcited and encouraging about our day at points than we were. As we were cautious to keep planning not knowing how things would go, we ended up scrambling closer to our date to make sure our vision would work. Laina was so helpful with countless phone calls and emails. I thought she had gone above and beyond in supporting our planning before the day of, but on the day of the wedding she and her team were beyond helpful. It rained in the morning and yet I was totally at peace knowing the Inn was all set to make sure everything would go smoothly. Laina was connecting with our vendors until the moment the ceremony began, and was so helpful and supportive during our reception - even sitting with me to make sure I ate something! Our wedding day flew by but it was TRULY perfect, and so much of that is thanks to the expertise, patience and commitment shared with us by the Inn at Longshore. Thank you thank you!

hen we first walked in as husband and wife to see our dream come alive before our eyes, the feeling was euphoric. Everyone was raving about how beautiful the venue was, and the service the entire evening was five star. If you are looking for an amazing venue for your big day or special occasion, look no further than The Inn at Longshore and make sure to ask for Adrienne. She is truly the best there is!

d every couple to check out The Inn at Longshore for their special day!

s of every staff member at the Inn at Longshore to go above and beyond to make it the most special and beautiful day of your lives is what is remarkable about this venue. We couldn’t have picked a better venue or team of people to help us get married. If you are looking at this venue to get married, definitely go with them!! You will not be disappointed in any aspect. We are so grateful we found them and chose them to host our wedding. It was the most beautiful wedding we’ve ever been to and our guests said the same thing! They really help take the stress out of planning a wedding and will be there for you every step of the way.

s very helpful every step of the way and always kept in touch with what was needed from us. The day went flawlessly with basically no intervention from us, which allowed us to fully enjoy our wedding. The food is superior to any other weddings we've been to, and our families loved the charm of the guest rooms.

organized and thorough - we got engaged about 20 months prior to our wedding, so we spent a LOT of time with all of the staff at Long Shore, and they were always so patient, helpful, and kind. Adrienne was our day of coordinator, and she was the BEST! I think the weeks leading up to my wedding, I sent her tons of emails PER DAY, and she always responded with a detailed answer and a smile! Everything was perfect - from the night I checked in on the 14th to our ceremony and reception on the 15th. The Inn at Long Shore truly made our day so perfect and magical!

ent above and beyond!

st off I would say that location is beautiful and the view out back would make a beautiful setting. First off that big white dome seen in the pictures appear to be completely rusted or visibly worn. It really was an eye sore. The outside cocktail area is really nice. My issue with is was that it was mostly a lawn. Thinking about my ladies with sinking heels into the grass. I was also concerned about the rain or mud...which brings us to the indoor cocktail hour back up room. They had a side room with the bar and said that it was where the back up was and the can fit 250 people in. Okay - let me put this into perspective by saying that that is where the bridal party gets ready before the wedding - and that is it's size. I looked at her in disbelief and she said that people can kind of "pour into the venue" if the space was needed. For a larger wedding you would need to put a few tables up on the separate ledge on the same level as the bar. This was not the worst thing in comparison, but I didn't love that. We were looking for somewhere with onsite accommodations for our guests and the inn only had around 6 rooms or so (not their fault). I felt that the rooms are very dingy and old. I believe they really need to update their amenities and the rooms are a tight squeeze for their capacity. Hopefully my review will help out some brides and impact management to make some necessary changes!

on the gorgeous, sprawling green lawn overlooking the Long Island Sound, followed by dinner and dancing inside the ballroom. On the second day, we held our Catholic wedding ceremony at a local church and returned to The Inn at Longshore for an amazing cocktail hour and reception. Food, beverages, and service were amazing and our guests are still raving. The team's attention to detail, coordination, and availability to communicate were SO appreciated! We feel so lucky to have celebrated our marriage at this little slice of heaven in Westport with such a fabulous team of event coordinators and caterers!

tail of our dream come true with attention to every detail !! We are so please with this place. The food, the venue, the staff all fantastic! Our guest, family, and friends can't stop complementing us! THANK YOU LAINA!!!

nn at Longshore hosted our corporate gathering and we are already looking forward to next year!

bout how beautiful the place was and more than anything, how incredible the food was! In addition, Laina was our coordinator and she was incredible. She had the place decorated exactly, if not better, than I envisioned it. She was attentive and constantly checked in with myself, my husband, parents, etc. to make sure everyone had what they needed. She was on top of everything and communicated with not only us but our vendors also to ensure everything ran smoothly, not just on the day of but throughout the entire planning process as well. She responded almost immediately to any and all of our questions we had, even on her days off. She even helped one of our guests who broke her heel glue the heel back on with a hot glue gun! I could go on and on. I really cannot say enough great things about Longshore. If you're looking for a place with an incredible staff, beautiful views, and amazing food this is your place!

almost 2 years out from our wedding date & our assigned wedding coordinator, Laina, could not have been more helpful through the wedding planning process. She was immediately available for any questions or concerns I had while booking our vendors & made us feel like we were the only wedding she was working on! We attended the tasting (with the other Fall 2019 wedding couples) at the beginning of the year & were blown away at how beautiful the event was. We sampled what felt like 100 AMAZING cocktail hour appetizers & they had a violinist to help set the atmosphere. Inside the Reception room, the tables were set perfectly with options for table cloths & napkins, beautiful floral arrangements supplied by Longshore's favored florist vendors & the Longshore staff treated the entire night as if it was an actual wedding. I highlight this because the tasting was just another reminder of why we chose Longshore. At this point we had already locked in all of our vendors, color scheme and design details & this event allowed to really visualize our wedding day. & of course, the food was INCREDIBLE! Laina & the entire Longshore team could not have made our wedding weekend easier! The night of our rehearsal dinner we brought in an overwhelming amount of extras - 9 ft farm tables, acrylic displays, signs, 150 + candles, favors, linens, etc. - and the team could not have been more helpful. Within minutes our 5 car caravan was emptied by the Longshore team & they were organizing for the following day. Laina & I walked through every single detail so that there would be no questions on the day - she introduced me to the team that would be working directly on our wedding & got rid of any of my nervous thoughts about wedding day logistics! Our entire wedding day went perfectly from start to finish - Chris and I were truly able to just enjoy the beautiful weather & our BEST DAY EVER! About a week ago we received our wedding photos back & we were really able to see all of things that the Longshore team did to make it our dream day!! Seeing all of the detail shots from inside the ballroom and from the ceremony makes me smile SO big because I can see all of the hard work that Laina & her team did to utilize ALL of our things and display them in such beautiful & thoughtful ways. They are seriously the BEST of the best. It all looked perfect & I wouldn't have wanted one thing placed differently! Our day was truly the most amazing day ever & we could not be more grateful for everything that Longshore did to make it a dream! We LOVED working with Laina (& the entire Longshore team) & will genuinely miss her!!! We highly recommend Longshore as a venue for any event because of our incredible experience with them. We will ALWAYS hold a very special place in hearts, for Laina & the Longshore team, for doing so much to make our wedding day everything we could have hoped for & more!

that were best for us and was always responsive to our emails. I was never worried about our wedding day because I knew we were in the best hands! Our wedding day was a dream thanks to the whole team at The Inn at Longshore. Everything from the ceremony to the receptions ran smoothly and the food was absolutely delicious! I could not have asked for a better day! I highly recommend The Inn at Longshore to anyone searching for a venue!

he staff were attentive, and both my hubby and I were fed (I put that as a huge accomplishment!). Longshore is a beautiful and historic place to get married, and is truly the full packaged for venues!

the planning process. She is the best. We planned the wedding from Colorado and Laina was very responsive and helped make the planning process simple and stress-free. For day of the wedding, I don't even know where to begin. It was absolute perfection. Laina was so attentive and I could trust that she had everything under control so I didn't have to think about a thing. We had great weather so we enjoyed the ceremony and cocktail hour outside. Cocktail hour was wonderful, it's just the perfect setting. The staff was very attentive. The food was delicious - we chose the filet mignon and the chicken as the main course choices. Again, we are so happy we chose the Inn and we thank the team for making our wedding day so special.

ough about her. She was on top of every detail in the lead-up (patiently answering many, many questions from us and our families), and made us feel like the only people in the world on our wedding day. We didn't have to worry once about event flow and she was right by our side at all the right moments, making sure we were where we needed to be and that we got to focus on spending time with friends and family. Our wedding was on July 27 and we had beautiful weather -- we did our ceremony on-site by the water and then flowed right into cocktail hour on the string-light covered patio. Our guests are still raving about the food - especially the hor d'oeuvres and outdoor pizza oven during cocktails - and the reception space is perfect for both a beautiful dinner and a raucous dance party. We couldn't have asked for a better day and are so thankful to Laina and the entire Inn at Longshore team.

I started communicating with her early on in the planning process. She responded to every question within hours and her knowledge and experience helped us plan a beautiful wedding! Laina is so kind and helpful. She made sure we ate at the wedding and even bustled my wedding gown! The view at Longshore is stunning for a wedding ceremony /photos and the food is incredible!! So many guests came to my parents and I to tell us how delicious and wonderful everything was. You will not be disappointed when you book your Longshore wedding!!!

y I will never forget. :)

She coordinated our vendors, helped us through some of the trickier decisions in the process, and even was able to secure tee times at the venue's golf course the morning before the rehearsal dinner. Mary, Takeya, and others helped book out the rooms for not only the wedding party, but also my parents when they realized they wanted to stay there after recognizing that the venue overlooks the water and is a short walk from the beach. I'm honestly surprised that my parents ever left they loved it so much there. In the hundreds of decisions we made leading up to our big day, hands down the best decision was going with Longshore. Beyond the obvious beauty of the venue both inside and out, we haven't been able to keep up with all of the compliments from our guests about how incredible the food was, how friendly the staff was, how good the drinks were, on and on and on... Whether you're from the area and considering Longshore as a local option, or if it will be more of a destination, this is the only place you should get married. Zero regrets from our end, we would do it again in a heartbeat, and we can't express enough our gratitude for how hard the Longshore team worked to make our day absolutely perfect. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Longshore!

mely helpful throughout the planning process and helped us tailor everything to fit our style and vision. If you're lucky like I was to have the ceremony and cocktail hour outside, you won't be disappointed- the pictures are gorgeous! I'd say 80% of our wedding guests were traveling in from other parts of the country and were truly impressed by how beautiful this venue was. The food was so AMAZING that we're still getting a ton of compliments on it. Everyone was really impressed with the level of variety and options for all different dietary restrictions. All the reception food was served at the same time and cooked perfectly, which we've seen issues at with other venues. I think the part my husband and I were most happy with was how attentive entire staff was all day and night to make sure we had everything we needed (as well as the other wedding VIPs like parents of the bride, grandparents, etc). They also did a great job of pacing the day out and keeping us all on schedule. They really are a well oiled machine here and I would highly recommend to anyone looking to get married in the Fairfield county area.

rely seen today. Both our family and the groom's agree we had the time of our lives. Everything was perfect to a level beyond what we ever dreamed - the outside ceremony and landscaping, the venue set-up and decor, the food and drink, and the Longshore team support. We worked with Adrienne Miller, who is truly one of the most organized, talented, and professional individuals any of us have ever met. She made us feel like the world revolved around us and my daughter's wedding day. We are all sorry to end all the planning and prep because Adrienne made the entire process as well as the wedding day SO MUCH FUN. Our family and friends continue to send us messages that it was one of their best wedding experiences ever. They can not stop raving about Longshore - from its beauty to the delicious food. We totally agree and thank Adrienne and our team for all of their time, energy, and dedication.

essert. We loved that we were able to customize the menu to what we like! Our wedding coordinator, Laina, was also amazing. no matter how many last minute changes occured with the guest count or whatever concern we had, she was able to answer the questions. On the day of the wedding, Laina and Lauren were there to make sure we ate, and drank of course. Whenever we had an empty glass, one of them would come right over with a new fresh one! Honestly, can not say enough good things about this venue!

ade the entire wedding planning process feel so relaxed and fun. She is truly amazing at what she does and is so nice to work with, as well as the rest of the staff. From the planning process, to the ceremony, cocktail hour, food and reception, everything was perfect. Our decor was displayed SO beautifully and the entire day was so organized. We could not be happier with our decision to get married at the Inn at Longshore! simply the best! Many family members and friends genuinly made a point to tell us how great the wedding was (the food and drinks especially... and how amazing cocktail hour was outside!)... best day EVER! Wishing we could do it all over again!

ble wedding coordinator, Adrienne! Everything went incredibly well and all of our guests are still talking about how much they enjoyed the food, cocktail hour, atmosphere, and beautiful view of Long Island Sound. The memories we have from our wedding day at The Inn at Longshore will last a lifetime and we are so grateful for the love, support, and guidance that was all around us during our wedding planning process. We would recommend this venue to anyone! #OnePrueLove

e and beyond to make sure our day flowed smoothly. We did not have to think about a thing. Everyone is so professional and accommodating. I would 100% recommend this venue to anyone looking to get married in the beautiful setting of shoreline Connecticut. We are dying to go back as guests!!! Everyone book this venue for your wedding. The entire process and day of was magical.

h. We were so lucky to be paired with Adrienne for day of coordination. Not once during the entire process did we feel unsure- she was so quick to answer emails and put our minds at ease. On the actual day, the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception were flawless, and the food was absolutely amazing. Multiple members of our families said it was the best wedding food they had ever had. The wedding was properly staffed, and it was clear that everyone was working their butt off to make sure this day was special for us. I cannot stress enough how perfect this day was for my husband and I, and anyone who has the opportunity to consider this location should count themselves incredibly lucky.

amazing. Adrienne and her team did such a wonderful job helping us plan and then executing everything. Literally nothing went wrong and I still don't know how they managed to pull that off. The food was amazing and our guests are still talking about it. I so loved working with Adrienne and knowing that I didn't have to worry about anything the day of. Please please please get married here- you will NOT regret it!!

e wedding was just beautiful! We highly highly highly recommend!!!!!!

ng (all of our guests can't stop talking about how great the happy hour food was) and the service was impeccable.

e were also so helpful in making our special day run smoothly- we did not have to worry about anything, and the details and service were flawless. We received so many compliments about how beautiful everything was and how the entire reception ran flawlessly. Highly, highly recommend! We wish we could do it all again!

asy to work with. Our wedding day was everything we wanted and more. Thank you Longshore for exceeding our expectations!

in about a four month span, and with Laina and the Inn's help, it really didn't feel rushed or overwhelming at all. Laina took plenty of time to work with every step of the way, and always promptly and thoroughly answered any questions I had. Beyond the preparation, the night of, the food, drink, staff and venue themselves were all amazing, and I received nothing but the highest praise from my guests. Would very highly recommend!!

r the best was the Asian food station at the cocktail hour I really cannot believe how good all the food was! Only two down sides the event was 5 and 1/2 hours and we could t have an after party on site so the night went by really really quickly. But it was still a wonderful event and evening. My husband and I really can’t recommend this place highly enough!!

very email within minutes and thought of EVERYTHING. The day of the wedding I didn’t have a thing to worry about, everything I pictured and planned for came out more beautiful than I imagined and we owe it all to the Inn. From gluing one of the bridesmaid’s shoe, to fixing our nephew’s boutonniere to charging our phones, there was nothing that the staff didn’t think of. We are still trying to figure out what event we can hold at the Inn next or what couple we can convince to get married there so we can go back for another wedding! We highly recommend the Inn at Longshore, we are so glad we choose this venue. Thank you Adrienne, Eddie, Nicole and the entire staff! You are all FANTASTIC.

nderstand. We knew this would be the place for us, and we booked immediately! From then on, we were amazed at the hospitality, kindness, and professionalism that all the staff members conveyed. Adrienne made the entire experience easy, as she helped us with literally everything. I must have emailed her hundreds of times, and she was always quick with a response and a smile. That day, they took care of everything - even the smallest details that I hadn't thought of. I really didn't have to worry about anything. I am so pleased with the Inn at Longshore. I want to go back and do it all again!

uld not have asked for someone more attentive and kind :) The food at the venue is unbelievable. our guests are still raving about it saying "best food I have ever had at a wedding" which we totally agree. We were able to have the ceremony outside and the backdrop in unreal. The reception inside was so much fun and allowed us to have all the things we wanted. A cigar bar, photo booth and dance floor in the same room. It was the most perfect day !!! HIGHLY recommend this Venue.

excellent. In making our venue choice, it was also the ONLY venue we visited that did not charge a site fee that basically gets you absolutely nothing. The Inn only institutes a food and beverage minimum to host an event depending on the time of year, and day of the week. We were less than four months out from our wedding and my now husband was in a car accident that forced us to postpone our wedding. Christine was so sensitive, kind and helpful in getting us a new date. We had already started working with our incredibly fabulous planner, Laina, who also was so sweet and supportive through our difficult decision. As our new date finally approached, working with Laina was SO amazing. She is SO organized, helpful, warm, and kind, and gives amazing suggestions! She literally made me feel like I hired an outside wedding coordinator in the way that she worked directly with my vendors, genuinely cared and went above and beyond with every detail. I could not have felt better cared for. She also has a very calming presence that can make a nervous bride feel at ease! After working with her for months, I consider her a friend and will miss the day to day wedding-related back and forth. Everyone raved about the food at the wedding - especially the cocktail hour pasta station, passed appetizers, ice cream sundae bar, and passed desserts. The flow of the event was absolutely perfect - cannot think of one oversight at all. I HIGHLY recommend this venue!

d with the beautiful long island sound as your backdrop, eat delicious food paired with delectable desserts and be taken care of by some of the most kind-hearted and experienced professionals in the business, look no further than Inn at Longshore!

ere elegant and just perfect. Would HIGHLY recommend!

r, best news ever, Laina was absolutely amazing! Over the year of planning any questions I had, she answered so quickly and with so much thought. Having Laina alongside really made the journey of planning that much easier, you didn't have to worry because she personally invested in making it the best day ever for us. The night of the wedding, walking into the Longshore it took my breathe away. Everything looked absolutely amazing, even the weather! Pictures on the property, cocktail hour outside was a huge hit, and the reception was just even better. Eddie was also amazing the night of the wedding, tending to me and Brendan throughout the night, we couldn't have done it without him. Also having Laina there just make me at ease! I have heard from many many people that they loved everything about the Longshore including the venue itself, the food, and the staff. I can't say enough amazing things about this venue and staff, it truly was an amazing experience from start to finish!!

e who works there is a seasoned professional! The food was also unparalleled - our guests are still raving about how good it was over 6 months later. You will not regret having your wedding at the Inn at Longshore - it was worth every penny!

perience of our lives. Our wedding day was perfectly executed in every aspect. From the planning, decor, food, and the venue, every single thing was perfect. We continue to get so many compliments on our wedding day, and we have the team at The Inn at Longshore to thank. We highly recommend this venue to any and every couple looking to get married in southern CT!

e planning process. On the actual wedding day, she made sure that everything went smoothly and all of the vendors knew where to go/what to do. We got lucky with beautiful weather, and the view for our ceremony/cocktail hour couldn't have been more perfect. I would highly recommend Longshore as a venue!

my life easier and less stressful. On the day of she made sure everything went off without a hitch. It was the perfect day and the perfect wedding. Having been in weddings at other venues, they just don't compare. Everyone here not only makes sure it gets done right, but does so with a friendly and helpful attitude. I would definitely recommend Longshore!

ease. She is so warm and friendly and always there when you need her. We were so lucky to have her taking care of us. The appetizers at the cocktail hour were so delicious and the best we've ever had. People are still raving about them! The pizza station was fabulous and a huge hit. The dinner choices were all wonderful, as well as the passed desserts and the ice cream extravaganza. The service we received was everything we could have asked for. Laina, Eddie and Nicole were so attentive and we felt very taken care of throughout the entire event. The venue and the view are beautiful and the water makes for perfect pictures, as well as an amazing cocktail hour. They have a perfect dream day to always remember. It was everything we could have wished for and more. I highly recommend The Inn at Longshore. It will exceed your expectations. Thank you for everything and all that you did to make it a perfect day.

From the beginning Adrienne was so friendly, helpful, and attentive with any questions, or concerns we had about our wedding. She was wonderful to talk to on both a professional and personal level. Eddie was also amazing. He checked in with us throughout the night, and always made sure that we were always taken care of. The Inn at Longshore is a timeless and classic venue, which well exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend that engaged couples consider the Inn at Longshore for their wedding. The grounds are gorgeous, the building is historic, and your guests won’t feel like they’re in a “wedding factory.” Thank you, thank you to everyone at the Inn at Longshore who made our day so special and memorable.

ator, and everyone helping the night of... it could only be described as perfect. The only downside to our wedding was that it goes by too fast. On the Marc food was phenomenal. Weeks have gone by and people can't stop talking about how great everything tasted. If you are comparing this place to a different venue I would just quit while you are ahead and give them a call. We will live the rest of our lives thinking about how perfect the day was. Looking through the photos on here is a great description of what the day/night felt like. It truly was was magical.

team at Longshore would exceed our expectations. We were paired with Laina for our event planning and could not have been happier with her - she was helpful in connecting us to vendors and coordinating with ones we found on our own, she was responsive to our urgent and not-so-urgent emails, phone calls, and requests. She was calming when we weren't calm, confident when we weren't sure, and left us with no doubt that she had everything under control. And she didn't disappoint. The wedding was executed flawlessly. Our own experience was magical. Someone from Longshore was within arm's reach of us for the entire night, discreetly ensuring that we had anything and everything we needed, handling little issues that came up and attending to the needs of our families. Eddie and his team did this gracefully and cheerfully and made us feel like nothing we could dream up was too much to ask. It was as 5-star an experience as we could have imagined. As for the guests... it is now almost a month later and we are still getting rave reviews about the food (short rib, salmon, and the donut wall!) and the staff. Choosing Longshore for our wedding was the easiest decision of the whole wedding and it turned out to be the best one too. Thank you thank you thank you!

ccessible via email. We met with her before the big day and it was helpful to have her layout all the details. She was also onsite all day, the day of our wedding, and helped with every detail! The actual wedding day was amazing. We were married June 2018 and had a beautiful day. Our cocktail hour outside was picture perfect. Everyone raved about the passed hors d'oeuvres...there were 10 different ones including mini lobster rolls which were a big hit. There were also fresh made pizzas/flatbreads from their outdoor pizza oven. It was truly an unreal experience. The beach/water made for the perfect pictures as well. Before the cocktail hour, we took all of our photos with our family and bridal party outside at Longshore. This was great as our bridal party/fam were able to hang out in the Adirondack chairs while my husband and I took pictures. Once inside, the ballroom was beautiful! We had a band which looked great with the mini stage. We also had a big wedding (240 people) so I was a bit worried about seating people a few stairs up from the main ballroom but this was completely fine and looked great! The bar inside was also so nice and big. Even with such a large wedding, the services and food were amazing. Everyone loved their entrees and we had passed desserts which was a fun treat! Lastly the service really cannot be beat. Laina and her team walked around during the cocktail hour to make sure my husband and I and our bridal party, were well fed and had drinks in hand! They even brought over specially made plates of each app so we could make sure we tried everything! We loved everything about The Inn at Longshore and our wedding guests raved about it as well. I cannot recommend it enough!

l we were given our wedding coordinator/consultant, Laina. She was great from the start – warm, welcoming and patient! I felt like I had a partner and friend throughout those last six months. She was calming and reassuring and I had confidence in her ability to make my daughter’s wedding day great. And it was! Eddie, the Maitre’d was great as well. He made everything seem effortless and always lighthearted and both Laina and Eddie kept positive when the weather seemed iffy. My daughter got to have her photos and cocktail hour outside and a beautiful, elegant dinner inside. The servers were professional and courteous and Nicole and Eddie packed up all our stuff at the end of the night, making the ending as smooth as the beginning. Much thanks to Laina for being there throughout the planning and for she and the staff at Longshore for making our daughter’s wedding something we will always treasure. Hugs, Elaine.

dinator, was amazing - incredibly personable, meticulous, and warmhearted. She kept us organized, kindly answered so many of our questions, and somehow made the planning of our wedding feel easy. On wedding day, she and Eddie made sure the day proceeded seamlessly and that we did not have to think about a single thing other than enjoying our day. The bride and bridesmaids had their hair and makeup done in the drawing room at the inn on the morning of and Takeya had anything we needed prepared - water, coffee, Bluetooth speakers, dishes for lunch, etc. From our first meeting to wedding day, all of the staff truly went above and beyond with their service to make us feel calm and happy during what could otherwise be a somewhat stressful time. We also absolutely loved the venue itself. It is just stunning - inside and out - and the food is unrivaled. Over a month later and our guests are still commenting on the best food they have ever had at a wedding and the memorable space. We highly, highly recommend!

rite food (pickles) into the menu somehow - which they did, and everyone raved about it. Our coordinator Laina was fabulous - very accessible, friendly, worked with us to make sure everything we wanted we could get (within budget) and she was so calm and collected even when I was freaking out about all the tiny details. On top of the team being amazing, the venue location is gorgeous, I loved having our ceremony and cocktail hour outside right on the water, and then moving inside for dinner and dancing. The ballroom is set up perfectly, the bar very accessible. Hands down the best part was the food. The best food we've ever had at a wedding... and our guests have told us the same thing. 10 passed appetizers during cocktail hour, 4 passed desserts, plus so many other add-ons, it's a foodie's dream come true. You get so much for your money here, we really couldn't have asked for a better venue for our big day :)

s. We had our dog apart of our day and everyone was so accommodating with him. The staff treated him like their own. We had Adrienne as our wedding coordinator and we didn't worry about a thing. She is excellent at her job! We loved working every minute with her. She went above and beyond for our big day and I couldn't of imagined having it anywhere else. The Inn at Longshore ROCKS and we highly recommend this venue and the whole staff.

way, everyone went completely above and beyond our wildest expectations. Adrienne, our event coordinator, was absolutely phenomenal. She not only answered our thousands of questions, but made us feel so special and not like we were just another wedding. Last but not least... THE FOOD. Wow. Our guests are still commenting to this day on how incredible the food was all night long. The passed hors d'oeuvres to the donut wall.. all delicious. We cannot thank The Inn enough for making our wedding day perfect.

g the venue, we had the pleasure of taking a tour and meeting with Christine. Before we even left, we knew this was our venue. The views are breathtaking. Our coordinator for our wedding was Laina. Laina truly is incredible. Her attention to detail is like no other. She offered suggestions, helped us pick our menu and was able to modify and accommodate all of our wishes. Our wedding was perfect from start to finish because of her. No detail was left undone and everything was beyond our wildest dreams. We also had the pleasure of working with Eddie, the banquet manager and Nicole, as well. Laina, Eddie and Nicole are so fun to be around and they honestly just know how to manage and execute a perfect event. Everything went off without a hitch and was truly seamless from the moment we arrived to the conclusion of our event. The caterers, On the Mark, provided the most DELICIOUS food for our guests. This is NOT your average wedding food. We were asked to provide the allergies/food sensativities/preferences of our guests and every request was accommodated. We are still having guests tell us that this was the tastiest food they have ever had at a wedding and that the food was simply delicious. Cocktail hour was phenomenal. The appetizers were unreal. MINI LOBSTER rolls are to-die-for. Pasta station was out of this world. You name it, it was perfect. Desserts were nothing short of phenomenal, too. A heart felt thank you to everyone at Longshore for making our wedding day a dream come true.
