Where do I even begin to explain how amazing The sea view and team was for making our wedding the absolute perfect day. From the moment we walked in to meet Gail I knew it was our place. (Not to mention We had a surprise blessing and had to change the date and Gail not only accommodated but made sure we had a safe space for her throughout the night.) She was so organized and dedicated to making sure the day was stress free and fun for us. We wanted a venue where we could get married on the beach but also have a beautiful space for dinner and dancing and this was exactly that. We were able to walk across the street with our guests and get married in the sand. As soon as we got back to the sea view they hid me and my husband to breathe, feed us and take a moment before entering the reception. I truly felt like a princess. Cocktail hour and music was on the beautiful terrace. Our guests raved about the place, the staff and the food. The Sea View worried about every detail for you like calling all the vendors to make sure everything was all set and even made sure to have our favorite drinks stocked. We wish we could do it again! 10/10 recommend this place to make your wedding truly memorable.

The Sea View was the perfect place to have our wedding! The terrace and the ballroom accommodated our 150 perfectly. My husband and I walked over to the beach and captured beautiful pictures during cocktail hour. The staff was kind and accommodating. They did an amazing job setting up our decor and fulfilling our vision for the space. Gail answered all my emails in a timely fashion. I really appreciated that the week of the wedding she made herself available to me at all hours and reached out to all my vendors to confirm arrival and set up. We will cherish the memories we made at the Sea View!
Special shoutout to By The Sea Bed & Breakfast who accommodated our room block and Friday night rehearsal dinner and welcome drinks with firepit with s'mores. The best part of the weekend was having friends and family staying within walking distance of all the wedding events and the beach!

Everyone at the Sea View was great. Gail helped coordinate everything with our vendors, and I didn't have to worry about anything. We had to change the ceremony to inside due to rain, and Steven and the whole staff made it super beautiful.
The whole day was incredible and the Sea View made it easy and stress-free to plan everything.

The Sea View was our best choice for our wedding. We had a great experience working with Gail, who made the whole process so easy; from the initial walk through, to starting the planning, even up to the wedding day before our celebration, Gail was always in contact with us. The food was delicious, the service was incredible, and the venue was beautiful. Thank you, thank you, thank you! We couldn't be more grateful.

Where do I even begin! We started planning our wedding in 2021 and I knew I had always wanted a Cape Cod wedding by the ocean. With the craziness of Covid we knew everything was booking up fast for the 2021/2022 year. On a friends suggestion who attended a wedding at the SeaView and absolutely loved it we looked into it. The SeaView was there first location we saw in person and absolutely fell in love with it. We were so lucky to book one of the few remaining dates they had that very day we visited!
We had our wedding here on 6/18/22! It was everything we could of ever wanted in a venue. Gail from the moment we met was nothing short of fantastic. Always available for questions. She gives you a perfect layout of your planning and dates and was so understanding with us when we were scatterbrained in our planning. The location is spectacular! The grand staircase, outdoor patio(where we had our ceremony.) Quick walk (well not in my dress lol) to the beach for photos. Gail from start to finish had wonderful ideas and suggestions and helped calm our nerves. The bridal suite was absolutely perfect for myself and my wedding party. The day off Gail and Steven keep you on track and calm and navigate the day for you. You honestly have nothing to worry about! Gail and Steven made sure my husband and I could sneak back in from photos without being seen and have a quiet moment to ourselves in the dining room with some of the delicious hours d’oeuvres before the party began. They were there all night helping us stay on schedule in the most relaxed way. Gail’s suggestion of setting up our cake and pastries and coffee and tea station out on the patio was so perfect. I was nervous it would take away from the dancing but not even remotely. The food was absolutely delicious! We picked the ultimate package! All of our guest couldn’t stop (still can’t ) talking about the wonderful cocktail hour and couldn’t believe the variety and deliciousness of the appetizers! The filet and chicken piccata dinners were raved about! Gail worked directly with all of our vendors so we didn’t have to play middle man which was a huge weight off our shoulders. Anything we wanted/needed from the day we signed our contract till our perfect day Gail was there. The wonderful staff at the Seaview even packed up all our personal items and decorations we had at the end of the night and placed it in the designated car. Our guests were as blown away as we were by this beautiful location and sensational venue. Thank you Gail and Steven for giving us and our family and friends a memorable and magical experience! We simply can not recommend the SeaView enough !

I can not say enough about the Sea View. Gail was amazing! she was with me at every step of the planning process and was always kind and accommodating. I felt at ease planning the wedding from over 4 hours away, because I knew she took pride and was meticulous in her work.
The food was fantastic and the supporting staff were all kind and professional.
Have your wedding at the Sea View, you will not regret it!!!

Where do I even start? I can’t thank Gail and her team enough for helping my husband and I have the most amazing wedding day, even in the midst of a pandemic! This place is truly a hidden gem and I can’t believe we were able to snag a date on such short notice.
They are SO organized. Gail walks you through everything and has whole checklists to work through so that every single detail is settled beforehand. Gail and team act as your defacto day-of coordinators so that all you have to do on your day is get married. I didn’t look at a clock or a checklist my entire wedding day. They communicated with all my vendors and made sure they had everything you need
We made the decision 3 hours before the wedding to just have our family at the ceremony. The Sea View team restructured the whole flow of our day at the last minute with zero stress or effort on our part. Our guests barely even noticed the change.
They only host one event per day so the space is flexible/yours to use as needed, especially if there’s concerns with weather.
They take care of you - they bring the bride and groom food and drinks to enjoy in a private suite after the ceremony and make sure you eat a real meal. The bride has her own bathroom big enough to accommodate a big dress!
Speaking of the food - oh. my. god. Gail said they could serve a full ballroom of guests in just a few minutes without letting the food die under heat lamps or in steam trays and she was right. I had fish with seafood stuffing and lobster sauce and it was to die for. They were beyond accommodating to several guests with severe allergies. We did petit four dessert platters at each table and I wish I could have taken 5 more home for later!
They are serious about covid safety while still helping you have the day you deserve. We were lucky that the restrictions were heavily relaxed just a week before our wedding and Gail and co sprung into action to revamp our plans to fit the new guidelines.
Literally the only bummer is that they only take payment by check but, hey, those credit card fees are no joke so I get it.

The Sea View is a beautiful venue with stellar customer service. Gail was so helpful throughout the entire planning process. They were so accommodating when we wanted to include extra little details and they made sure to make our big day as special as possible for both us and our guests. You will not regret using this venue for any event!

The Sea View was everything we hoped for when envisioning our wedding reception! Gail who is the wedding coordinator for the venue is absolutely incredible and was such a pleasure to work with when planning the ceremony. Stephen who was our wedding day coordinator was beyond helpful, attentive and so much fun! The rest of the Sea View staff were very organized and efficient. We can’t say enough about the food and service provided by the Sea View. We highly recommend having your wedding reception at the Sea View as they will do everything they can to make your big day extra special!

We decided to have our wedding at The Sea View and it was the best decision of our lives. For starters, the location of the venue is amazing and so close to the ocean. The venue itself has an incredible view and is beautiful on the inside as well. The bar room and terrace were perfect for our cocktail hour and the dining area fit our live band and 140 guests with ease. Working with Gail made planning stress free, and she was always there to answer our calls/texts when we had questions. On our wedding day, Gail and the staff made sure that it went flawlessly which helped us out tremendously. The whole night went amazingly without missing a beat and the food was delicious! I would highly recommend the Sea View to anyone thinking about getting married in the Cape.

We booked our rehearsal dinner at the Sea View after we were unable to move forward with our original venue due to covid. Though we were initially sad, it turned out to be such a wonderful location! Gail worked with us every step of the way to create the event we were looking for, from cocktail hour through dessert and any other little detail we thought of. She was so kind to us, accommodated all of our requests and made sure to answer all of our questions. We would highly recommend her and her team at the Sea View. Thank you Gail!

My husband and I had our wedding reception at the Sea View in October. From the first visit to our wedding day, the staff was knowledgeable, accommodating and very responsive to any request we had. Gail provided us with templates and outlines to help us plan our day. On the wedding day the whole staff was wonderful, even helping me clean the mud off of my train! The staff was very accommodating to dietary needs/allergies of my guests and the food was delicious. We couldn't have asked for a more seamless process and memorable day.

To say we were blown away by The Sea View is truly an understatement.
From the very first meeting with Gail, we felt that we were in the best hands possible to make our wedding truly perfect.
Gail's attention to detail, calmness, and willingness to do whatever she could to accommodate any request we had was amazing. We felt confident that everything would be taken care of and we could leave everything in her capable hands.
The staff at the Sea View were nothing short of amazing. Immediately following the ceremony, we were brought food and drinks, and were never without a drink for the duration of the reception.
While the staff was always available, they were respectful, quiet, incredibly helpful, but also allowed the guests to enjoy their night without even realizing they were there.
The venue itself transformed into an even more beautiful space than we ever could have imagined. It is bright and beautiful, and the outdoor ceremony space was perfect for our wedding.
The food was absolutely perfect. All of our guests remarked about how delicious the food was, and how cold the beers were.
Gail allowed us to relax on our wedding day and know that everything would be done exactly as we had asked. We would highly recommend the Sea View to any bride who wants a Cape Cod wedding.

To have the picture perfect wedding day, you truly need a picture perfect team and that is exactly what we found at The Sea View. They took a Type A bride and turned her into the most calm, cool and collected Mrs. and for that alone I cannot thank them enough. Everyone from Gail, Steven, Mary and beyond were incredible to work with and left us assured the day would go off without a single hitch...and it most certainly did. Cannot recommended this venue and this team enough. Absolute perfection in every single way. Thank you.

The Sea View was exactly what my husband and I wanted for our wedding reception. Gail was so calm, patient and respectful of all of our ideas that made our vision come true. She was easy to communicate with and helped us with every small detail that made the night run so smoothly. Stephen was also so helpful and super considerate of all our guest's needs. Everyone kept commenting on how helpful the staff was and how great the food was. The reception room was so bright and beautiful and the patio terrace was perfect for cocktail hour. I loved having the bridal suite upstairs for my bridal party to keep their belongings in and the it the room upstairs as a plan b if it rained and we could not hold the ceremony on the beach. The Sea View had everything we wanted for our wedding day!

What can we say about The Sea View?!! From the moment JP and I met Gail and toured the facility, we were smitten. The entire building was meant to host weddings and wedding receptions. The foyer is welcoming, the bar/cocktail lounge is very homey and the dining room is amazing. All so light and airy and completed with a terrace that over looks a nature preserve. This site is perfect just a short walk from a beach ceremony (which we did) and perfect for an on site ceremony. When we told Gail that we planned on having a "Cranberry Harvest" themed wedding on October 7, she was completely on board. Not only did she give great advice, she answered "silly questions" with out ever seeming bothered and made our Cranberry Harvest wedding a reality. She and her team worked together effortlessly and we truly believe they simply love what they do. The list of vendors that was provided to us was amazing (as well as the ones we chose) and you'd think that the staff of the Sea View and the vendors chosen were one unit! The menu offerings are plentiful, there is a wide variety of food for any diet. We still have our guests raving about the hors d'oeuvres and their meals plus the "late night snacks" were a great hit! They also offer a range of wedding cake varieties. Ours, was of course, amazing!
From the moment we walked from our beach ceremony into The Sea View until the moment we walked out to begin our married life, we were led by the amazing team of Gail, Stephen, our wedding planner Laura and the wonderful staff at the Sea View. We truly did not have to think about a thing! And we had a truly amazing and memorable day! Thank you to The Sea View!
Love,
The Pythons
p.s. We can't wait to eat at the Ebb Tide!

The Sea View is the perfect venue for a wedding! It includes a lot and is also on a street where there are surrounding hotels for guests to walk to and from, making it easy and convenient. Gail and Stephen are the wedding coordinators and they were amazing! They were so helpful and extremely professional and helped to make our reception run so smooth. Also most venues ask you to setup all your stuff and take photos of how you want it but I left most of it in the hands of Gail and Stephen and they executed my vision perfectly! They also helped in packing everything up for us as well. The food was amazing and service so fast! There was never a long line for guests at the bar. The venue is built so well that you never feel like it’s too crowded and the wrap around porch is great for guests and photos! The beach is across the street so it makes it so easy for photos. All of our guests thought the venue was perfect as well. I highly recommend this venue for anyone looking!

I can not express how easy Gail and Steven made the wedding planning process as well as the day of. They continued to accommodate all of our crazy last minute changes without any issues. Guests raved about the food and location. The venue was perfect for the Cape Cod wedding we dreamed of and Gail made it so easy for us even though we lived 5 hours away. I can not thank everyone enough for making the day so perfect.

We actually chose "The Seaview" sight unseen on the recommendation of another bride that was married there. We were not disappointed. We booked a June wedding about 6 months prior. Gail and her staff guided us through the entire process with ease. The venue is across the street from the ocean, we chose to get married on the deck at the "Seaview" we took pictures on the water. The week of the wedding the weather looked ominous so we asked if a tent could be put up. As it was last minute, Gail did not have a tent available, but went completely out of her way to find us a spectacular tent. If finances warrant, I would recommend including a tent from the get go. The tent formalized the deck area, and looked so much more festive. The wedding went off without a hitch. We used a DJ, a photographer, and JP from their list, they were all great and familiar with the venue. The food was very good, very simple. There are several options for open bar etc. Gail was great to review all options with us. We highly recommend "The Seaview" its definitely a professional operation. Good Luck!

We had our wedding at the Sea View on September 2nd 2017, and could not have been happier. Gail made the planning process very easy and was available to answer questions throughout it all. The day-of was perfect - our guests loved the venue, food, and service. We held our ceremony on the deck at the venue, and it was a gorgeous and intimate place to be married.
We were most impressed with the service throughout the day. Stephen was incredibly attentive to our needs from the moment we arrived at the venue until we walked out the door at the end of the evening.
The Sea View is the perfect place to be married on the Cape! We wholeheartedly recommend this venue.

We had our wedding at the Sea View in August, and the staff did an absolutely exceptional job. Gail and Steven are truly pros, and I had the best time working with them. They were prepared, careful, and meticulous, but made everyone feel so comfortable. Our bridal party complimented Gail and Steven, too for their attentiveness! I wish I could do it again every weekend.

My wedding is actually in 2.5 weeks and this review may change, but most likely for the better.
I am from outside of Boston, and live in NYC (10 years) but have been going down the cape every summer for as long as I can remember. It's my favorite place in the world and the only place I have ever wanted to get married. My mom and I toured a bunch of locations, but the Sea View was by far the best- it's the epitome of "the Cape." Simple, elegance.
My wedding is about 160 people. The Sea View is perfect. A few things really appealed to me- first, there is only one wedding going on. Meaning, everybody is going to be focused on me, my fiance, and my guests. Second, with the amount of guests we are having, the space is perfect. It's going to be cozy enough where all guests are mingling, and not too spread out that people keep to their own circles. The bar is really close to the main room, so the guys can't just hang there (away from music) and not dance. Third, the hotel/motel situation is ideal for guests. There are >5 hotels legitimately within a 6 minute walk (at most).
And finally, Meet Gail. Gail is the owner of the Sea View and wedding coordinator. I live in NYC, and have been engaged for over a year and half. Since the beginning, Gail has been amazing. Once Anthony and I took the tour of the Sea View ( Feb 2016), we knew it was the perfect place. Gail has been dealing with my constant emails, and always replies in a prompt fashion. Anthony and I, with our fams, ate at the Ebb Tide last summer, and the food was awesome. (Ebb Tide was my grandparents favorite restaurant back in the 80s and late 90s...timeless).
One of Gail's promises is that all the main courses will be served at basically at once, so all guests are eating at the same time.
Thus far, Gail and the Sea View have been amazing.
Can't wait to update after wedding!

We are so happy that we chose the Sea View for our wedding reception. Gail (the wedding coordinator) went above and beyond to make sure that everything was perfect to the last detail. She was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. She was responsive to every phone call and email that we had leading up to our wedding. She provided helpful guidance in planning our wedding and it would not have been as perfect without her assistance. She has so much experience and has suggestions and answers to everything you might not think about in preparing for the reception.
The venue itself is beautiful. It is across the street from the beach. It also contains a body of water on the porch area that looked great in the summer. We did our “first look” on the back deck. Some of our most beautiful pictures came from the deck at the Sea View. We recommend looking at pictures of the venue to get a feel for it.
Gail and her staff made sure that everything went smoothly on the day of the wedding. Steve, our point person on the day of the wedding, made sure that we stayed on schedule. We wanted to have as much time for dancing as we could, so he kept us on schedule and it was great having him throughout the day. He was extremely attentive throughout the whole reception.
The food was amazing. They use the food from the Ebb Tide Restaurant. Unfortunately, they do not do food testing, but it really was not needed. We had the raw bar, four hors d'oeuvres, and the surf and turf for our meal. It was all excellent and we have absolutely no complaints. The staff also did an amazing job to make sure that everybody was provided their meal at relatively the same time. We have been to weddings where some tables were done eating before other tables even had their meals. That was not the case here. Everybody was eating at the same time so there was no waiting around. We continue to hear from our guests about how amazing all the food was.
We highly recommend the Sea View. It was a major reason why our guests continue to compliment us and tell us about how great our wedding was and how much fun they had. We owe Gail and her staff so many thanks for everything they did to make our wedding day as perfect as it was.

Amazing venue! So beautiful and a great space and set-up for a wedding. We had our ceremony and reception there and Gail (the coordinator) was incredibly attentive the entire day and treated my husband and I very well. They really help to make sure everything goes smoothly and are real pros. Food was delicious (everyone really loved the clam chowder), the drinks were strong and quickly served.... all in all no complaints. I would recommend to any of my friends!

I had the absolute best experience with The Sea View! Gail is wonderful to work with, and extremely organized- which was so helpful for us planning our wedding from out of state! Gail went above and beyond to meet with us whenever we were in town, and communicate with us by phone and e-mail to make sure all of our plans were coming together exactly how we wanted! They even met with us a few days before the wedding to "double check" that everything was perfect.
On the day of the wedding, Gail and her assistant Stephen made me feel so special!! I could enjoy the magic of the night while they ensured everything ran smoothly. Stephens job was to take care of us- he would check in with me and my husband throughout the night in case we needed anything. He made sure we had a chance to taste all of the appetizers we chose and brought a plate of them to us when we were busy with pictures- once even swapping it out for a fresh warm plate! They were able to help us accomplish all of the things we wanted to do without it feeling like we were going through a checklist- they fitted each event into the flow of the night and adjusted as needed! The food was warm and delicious- all of my guests raved about it- and they serve everyone so quickly all of the tables are eating together. They even gave us some slices of wedding cake to take home and enjoy later. It was so effortless and fun for me, honestly there was nothing that was not perfect. They even made sure everything was stress free for my family as well and packed everything away in their car at the end of the night- that was an added bonus because they could just enjoy the night with us too that we all worked so hard to plan! All of our guests stayed in the hotel across the street- we walked there after the reception- could not be any easier!
I could go on forever, but overall I would recommend The Sea View for anyone having a wedding on Cape Cod! It is a true gem! In addition to a beautiful, clean, and classic Cape Cod venue, Gail and Stephen top it off- they are your wedding planners, assistants, and honorary part of your family all rolled into one!

From the moment my husband and I walked into the front entrance of the Sea View we knew this was the place we wanted our reception to be! My wedding reception was at the Sea View and it was everything I imagined and more! Gail and Steven made me feel at ease and stress free! Any questions I had they both went out of their way to make sure they answered me in a timely fashion. Everyone at the venue was very professional and very nice! We highly recommend this venue to anyone who wants a stress free and fun wedding process!

The Sea View is absolutely the place to get married on the Cape! The location is ideal located across the street from the beach and made for weddings.
The planning process was great working with Gail, available to answer our many questions and changing our minds several times. The staff was friendly and very helpful.
The wedding day it self was absolutely amazing. The day went by seamlessly, even though there were a few hiccups to the original plan, the Sea View staff was proactive and solution oriented to help solve the problem (The chuppah was going to fly away because of the wind).
The staff especially Gail and Stephen were amazing the day of the wedding. Gail even pinned the flowers on to the groom and the wedding party. Stephen was always there by my side, fixing my dress, getting my shoes or flip flops, making sure I was hydrated with water or champagne and that I was fed.
The venue was amazing, to have an outside wedding, and a huge bar as well as an amazing nautical ambience was exactly the spot we wanted to get married.
The Sea View was amazing and if I could I would give it more than 5 stars.
THANK YOU Sea View for the best day of my life.

We were married on September 3, 2016 at The Sea View and it was absolutely perfect! From the moment we viewed the venue space we knew it was right for us. A classic and charming cape location with such a great layout of both indoor and outdoor space. There are also plenty of motel/resorts on Chase Ave to accommodate guests which is where we did all of our room blocks. Gail was such a pleasure to work with during our year of planning. She was very responsive and the process was so organized it really left both of us feeling like we talked everything over before our big day! We were able to drop venue items a week before and that really helped reassure that everything would be in place. The day of the wedding went so smoothly, especially with the help of both Gail and Steven being on site and our timeline stayed perfectly in place. Since The Sea View only accommodates one wedding a day it really allows you to feel like it is your space and that was huge for us..not having multiple weddings occurring at the same location like other sites we had visited. We ended up having 130 of our closest family and friends and the space was the perfect size for our lovely cocktail hour on the patio and for our band to set up in the reception room with plenty of space on the dance floor. The location is also a great spot for pictures. We snuck out in the middle of dinner with our photographer and got some beautiful shots on the path leading to the beach across the street. We could not have imagined our wedding reception anywhere else. Thank you for making our day so special!!! Kim & Mike

We can't say enough great things about the Sea View. From start to finish, our wedding prep and day of went smoothly, thanks to Gail and her staff. A gorgeous location right near the beach. We highly recommend to anyone looking to have their wedding on or near the beach.

Gail and the rest of the staff at The Sea View did an outstanding job orchestrating our wedding reception. Their attention to detail was excellent, they thought of everything to make the day as carefree and smooth as possible. The wedding party arrived late to the Sea View because we took longer than planned to do our formal photos, but Stephen had us right back on schedule within 15 minutes (dinner served right on time and very quickly) so that no time was lost in enjoying the rest of the night! They checked in with us to make sure we had what we needed or to give us updates but didn't intrude or feel overbearing. During the planning process we had some confusion over the wording in the contract for the bar/cocktail hour but Gail helped every step of the way to answer all our questions promptly and make sure we were happy with the contract. The Sea View is great, would highly recommend!

My husband and I chose The Sea View for our wedding ceremony and reception in August 2016. We had an incredible day. Gail was so helpful with our planning. She was always available to answer our questions and meet with us whenever we needed to. Steve was very attentive to anything we needed during our reception. All of our guests raved about the food. The filet mignon was cooked perfectly! I even had two vegan guests who said the vegan dish was the best they've ever had at a wedding. The chocolate cake with mocha fudge filling was very delicious! Our guests really enjoyed cocktails and desserts outside on the terrace. We will never forget our special day at The Sea View!

We chose The Sea View for our reception location, and we are so happy that we did. Gail was great to work with through the whole process, we chose a package that was right for us and Gail did the rest to make sure that all other details were thought of and complete. We were able to drop off all our decor and details a week before which definitely helped alleviate some of the stress leading up to our big day. I would definitely recommend The Sea View to other couples!

Our wedding at The Sea View was more amazing than we imagined! Gail the wedding coordinator made our day remarkable. She makes sure that the bride and groom do not have to worry about a single thing and the reception went extremely smooth! We got amazing reviews from our guests that the food was VERY good, hot when it came out and perfectly cooked. Gail also decorated the venue beautifully (the venue is beautiful even without decorations)! She allowed us to fly my grandfathers Navy flag in honor of him which was very touching. Overall, we had the most perfect day and wedding!

What an absolutely beautiful venue! Gail and her staff are incredible!! From the day we met Gail, we knew this was our venue! The Sea View is spotless, has a gorgeous bar, and a great patio. Being right across the street from the beach worked out perfectly, our guests could walk over to cocktail hour. Gail handled all the little details, and was always available for questions. The food was excellent and the night moved seamlessly thanks to the timeline Gail helped develop. She and her staff are absolute professionals! The perfect venue in the perfect location! And a complete breeze considering we were planning from NY! Huge thank you to Gail and her team!! Wedding was perfect!

We got married on September 5, 2015 at the Sea View. The venue is truly amazing. Gail and her staff are exceptional in every way. We met with many venues on the cape and when we met with Gail she was the only person who actually spoke about the food in detail. Guest at our wedding always tell people after how the food was so why shouldn't it be an important topic when looking for a venue. From cocktail, to dinner and dessert the food was terrific. Every guest we spoke to raved about how great the food was and how it wasn't the typical wedding food. The venue speaks for it's self. When you visit it you will see how gorgeous it is. The back of the venue overlooks a nature preserve with a pond, and the front of the venue is right across the street for the ocean. Literally a stones throw away. We actually got married on the beach and had our cocktail hour on the gorgeous patio. Gail and Stepen, we can't say enough good things about you guys and the service, personalization, creativity, care you both gave to us on our wedding day!

An incredible place for your wedding! Top notch food and service. Gail is the nicest person to work with from start to finish. She is attentive to detail and spot on with delivery. As a wedding photographer I have seen many venues and am alway blown away by how smoothly things run here. I credit that to their staff that has been there for years and solid communication. I highly remanned this place especially to anyone looking for a Cape Cod beach wedding.

The Sea View was our ceremony and reception venue for our wedding. It is a beautiful location and we knew it was the place we wanted to have our wedding as soon as we saw it.
We were originally planning on having our ceremony outside on the patio, but the weather was iffy- Gail explained our options for having the ceremony inside and outside and ultimately left the decision up to us whether we'd have the ceremony indoors. We did have it inside and it honestly was perfect - it was comfortable for everyone and it was much more intimate. The reception was beautifully set up and the food and the cake were delicious. We got many comments on how good the food was from our guests. Gail and Stephen were super helpful and organized and they made sure that everything went off without a hitch. Gail was always more than happy to answer questions or meet with me or my parents. They always made sure that we were happy and had something to drink or eat. While we took pictures upstairs, they brought up apps for us and the wedding party. We can't thank Gail and Stephen enough for everything - it was an absolutely perfect day and we'd definitely recommend The Sea View.

My husband and I used the Sea View for our reception this past spring. Everything went seamlessly. The venue took careful attention to detail. Gail was incredibly helpful in helping us make decisions and making recommendations. I would definitely recommend this venue to others who are looking for a seaside reception.

Perfect, gorgeous, convenient, accommodating, easy.....I could go on and on forever about the SeaView and the phenomenal crew!! From the very beginning, I knew this is where I wanted to celebrate our marriage! My sister in law had her ceremony here back in 2007 and I always loved the photos, we went to visit the week after being engaged and fell in love. Visited other places just to stay well rounded but they didn't have the charm, price point, beauty or personal touch like the Seaview did. Gail was always available for me at any time, I texted her countless times every time I had a thought and she never made me feel as if I was bothering her. Her advice, ideas and sincerity was incredible. We paid for our wedding completely on our own and were very nervous on how we were going to pull it off. Gail made sure that we could customize certain things and was very cautious of our budget and ever pushed anything on us! We are STILL getting compliments today about the food! At my sister in laws wedding back in 2007, her and my husbands mother made these customized, painted beach buckets and gave one to the SeaView after the wedding. My husband and sister in law lost their mother the following year and Gail stayed in touch. Right before our wedding day, Gail presented us with this beach bucket as a gift....to say our hearts were touched would be the biggest understatement. We will never forget that.
They accommodated us down to every minute and every detail. Our ceremony was held across the street on the beach and was delayed by about an hour due to rain (hey it's good luck right?!) and the SeaView did EVERYTHING to make it all run smoothly and keep me calm.
Only downfall was that our slideshow did not work so we could not play it. I recommend checking if your dvd works on many different tvs before thinking it's all set!!
Our beach theme was carried through our entire wedding and they made sure our guests saw every "layer" of our wedding. They even carried many things from the beach to the hall when it wasn't their job...so unbelievably accommodating!
I love absolutely everything about the SeaView and Gail, we will be forever grateful for them allowing our dream wedding to come true!! 10 stars across the board!

I got married at the Sea View on August 8, 2015. Our wedding was picture perfect, and the Sea View did absolutely everything to accommodate our wants and needs. Gail and Stephen provided excellent service.
Over the course of my wedding night, I became very sick (from not eating the whole day leading up to the ceremony) and the service provided to me was outstanding. There was someone assigned to me all night, and they provided me with different foods, ginger ale, and basically anything else I asked for.
Gail is an extremely patient and kind person to work with. She was organized, which helped us get everything ready for the big day. She let us visit numerous times over the year leading up to our wedding to check on different things. She was always available to answer all of our questions and provide fabulous advice for ideas we had.
The room was gorgeous, and the deck outside was a great place for guests to go for the cocktail hour and to get some fresh air during the reception. All of our guests have said that our wedding was one of the best weddings that they have ever attended, and I know that the Sea View had a huge part in that. The venue is a gorgeous place, in a wonderful location, and the service was excellent. I highly recommend this venue to all brides. Gail will make your day be exactly what you want it to be.

Working with Gail and the Sea View was a wonderful experience. I knew I wanted to get married on the beach and have a beautiful, traditional Cape Cod experience. Unfortunately, many of the venues to make this happen are extremely expensive!! Thank goodness for the Sea View. The moment we had our walk through with Gail, and then walked across the street to Inman Beach, I knew it was the spot for us. The entire space is beautiful and spotless. I loved the bar, I loved the outside patio, I loved that the dining area was lots of natural light and simple. We found the food options to be within our price range, and loved that there wasn't a huge tax/gratuity tapped on like many places, only 7% food tax plus 5% suggested gratuity... a few of the venues we looked at tapped on more tax and tip and it would have bumped the price 20-30% which is crazy. Anyway, working with Gail was easy. She was very organized, quick to respond and willing to hear our concerns and answer our questions. Her staff were very helpful and friendly. I'd recommend the Sea View to anyone getting married on Cape Cod and would do it all over again there if I could!

I had my wedding at the Sea View in August of 2015. I can not say enough about how amazing it was. Gail went out of her way to plan for every detail of the day. Stephen (dining room manager) was amazing and paid attention to every one of my requests!
When I saw the room that night decorated, it brought tears to my eyes. The room exceeded my expectations.
The food was wonderful, served hot and timely.
Mary... THANK GOD FOR MARY. She helped me bustle my dress, filled my champagne class whenever it was empty, held my flowers - she was a life saver!
The Sea View is an efficiently run venue that pays attention to all of your wishes and dreams for your special day. They left nothing to chance and the day was organized and executed with expertise!
If you are considering the Sea View - you will NOT be disappointed!

My wedding reception at the Sea View was absolutely perfect! The wedding planner Gail made the planning process so easy. She was always willing to meet with me and was quick to respond to emails. She was so flexible and encouraged my fiancé and I to structure our reception based on our wants and needs. On our wedding day, the Sea View staff was amazing! The food was delicious, the cake was excellent, and the staff was on top of everything. Gail and her staff decorated the ballroom so beautifully and her assistants were always at my side, asking me if I needed anything and making sure I was aware of the next event to occur (ie father-daughter dance and cake cutting). The Sea View was the only wedding venue my fiancé and I looked at and I am so thankful we chose this venue. If you want an elegant, relaxing, and classic Cape Cod wedding, go with the Sea View!

We worked with the Sea View for about a year and Gail McCormick was fantastic to work with. She understood our vision, offered great suggestions to see them through fruition and was always available for a meeting when we were in town. She really kept us at ease planning a destination wedding, and was kind enough to offer her suggestions on outside vendors as well. Our wedding day went of without a hitch, thanks to Gail and her amazing staff. They had the place set up exactly how we envisioned. She even gave us some of the props we were looking for complimentary so that we wouldn't have to buy things we wouldn't need after the wedding. They had a wide variety of linens and décor to choose from, and we were thrilled with all of them. The food was all fantastic, and the guests were pleased with our drink menu. The cake was gorgeous and delicious! They matched it perfectly to the theme. The staff looked after my husband and I, making sure we were fed and had a drink in hand! They assisted with the flow of the reception and made it easy for us to make our exit, as they handled all of the clean-up and packaged all of our personal décor and gifts up nicely. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for an authentic Cape Cod wedding.

Our wedding reception at the Sea View in late September was perfect. The wedding coordinator, Gail, was wonderful throughout the whole process. I was worried about planning a wedding when I did not live near-by, but Gail was always able to accommodate my availability on weekends and helped to calm my nerves with her expertise and professionalism. The venue was beautiful, with many of our guests out on the deck during cocktail hour and everyone loved the bar room during cocktail hour and later in the night to take a break from dancing. The personal attention to the bride and groom throughout the night was the perfect touch. The food was delicious, but my husband and I wished we could have offered our guests a few more meal choices on the Deluxe package we chose. The package above ours offered a wide variety of food options, but also additional things that we did not need such as a cake, champagne toast, etc. Gail and the staff at the Sea View handled some last minute changes on the day of the event with ease and made sure the bride and groom were stress free and enjoying their day. I would definitely recommend the Sea View to future couples!

I can not say enough good things about The Sea View. The venue is beautiful and is set on conservation land with a beautiful pond behind it and it is right across the street from the beach. Gail was the best person to work with throughout this whole process and made our day so special. She was responsive and attentive. She took care of everything for us. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a special and perfect day. She allowed us to have our dog apart of the ceremony which was very important to us. The food was amazing and all our guests were raving about it. The venue itself is large and very well taken care of. I cannot thank Gail and her team enough for all the hard work they put into our special day. I would not change a thing about this place.

If you're looking for a fresh, new, clean venue with lots of ambiance, detail oriented service, amazing food!!!! - then you should probably book your wedding at The Sea View!!!
I'll start with the food. Our guest enjoyed their choice of a either a perfectly med. rare Filet Mignon, fresh wild Atlantic Salmon or roasted veggie pasta. The filet literally melted in my mouth and I'm still devastated that I had no room to finish it. The salmon was so incredibly flavorful! Our guests raved about the food!
Gail, your future wedding coordinator is so kind, generous and knowledgable - she was always available to meet, and always had a cool, calm face on for whenever I was freaking out (which was every time we met because I'm high strung) Anyways, the venue itself is beautiful. There are plenty of surrounding hotels for your guests to stay at - I suggest The Soundings or The Gas Light. The beach is right across the street... it's just a perfect spot for a Cape Cod wedding.
As far as price goes, we chose the Ultimate Package - the most expensive, but absolutely the biggest bang for your buck! It included a delicious champagne toast! Our choice of 4 tasty appetizers, a huge cheese and cracker station, use of the bridal suite, choice of two amazing entrees, coffee and the most fantastic cake!!!!!!!!!
The cake was sooo good!!!!
Our linens were gorgeous, Gail and her staff set-up every table for us and it all came out beautiful! It rained on our wedding day, but cleared up moments before our ceremony began - we were still able to have our ceremony on the outside terrace!
Another beautiful thing about this venue is that there are so many places for guests to go off and have a conversation, whether it be on the terrace, the lounge, the entrance... the space is just very accommodating.
I highly recommend the Sea View - all of our guests have given us nothing but excellent feedback!

The Sea View is the perfect spot for a Cape Cod wedding! It is located right across the street from the beach, so the outside patio is a beautiful place to have your ceremony or cocktail hour. The decor on the inside is really nice, and has a beachy, modern feel. They don't offer food tastings, which is probably my only complaint, but the food was REALLY good and there are a lot of options to choose from. The overall cost for the wedding was actually relatively affordable, as far as Cape Cod wedding venues go. Gail the coordinator was amazing to work with. She is very flexible and takes every request you have and makes it happen. She is a great source for advice and is very organized. Our wedding turned out amazing without a single flaw. Everyone kept saying how much they loved the Sea View and that they had so much fun at our wedding. I would definitely recommend choosing the Sea View for your wedding!

Despite the rained out beach ceremony we planned, Gail (the owner), went out of her way to accommodate us! She made our ceremony wonderful, and her staff was very attentive! The only complaint was the with the food...over-cooked and not as delicious as we hoped for the prices we paid.

Gail and Steven at the Sea View made my day so special and went above and beyond to make it special. I wanted some unique things and they were more than willing to help change things from the package at no extra cost. The day of the wedding my husband and I were their top priority and making sure that we were happy. I can't say enough good things about them.
