    An absolutely beautiful wedding venue, plus the best team to work with!

    Choosing to have my reception at The Shore and Country Club was hands-down one of the best decisions I made for my wedding. We worked with Cherese Palmer, who made it all a breeze! She was a true professional, making us feel confident in our choice throughout the whole process. She was a calm presence during a time that can sometimes be stressful, of which I was and still am so grateful. In regards to the venue itself, I cannot imagine a more picturesque place to have a wedding reception. I can’t count the amount of times my family and I have been told that SCC was the most beautiful reception venue they had ever been to, and I cannot agree more. The large windows in the ballroom allowed guests to view the sun set over the water while eating dinner, and the grassy lawn was the perfect place to have cocktail hour (or a wedding ceremony!). I would highly recommend The Shore and Country Club to any bride that wants both a stunning wedding venue and a team that goes above and beyond in order to make the reception itself perfect!

    Shore and Country Club was the perfect setting for our wedding ceremony and reception! Having grown up in the area, we were definitely having our wedding on the water. Cherese, the banquet manager, was a delight to work with throughout the whole process. She thought of everything we didn't think of and set everything up for us. She acted as not only the caterer/banquet manager but our wedding coordinator too!

    We loved that we could have our ceremony right on the lawn in front of the water (with the rain holding off!) They provided an open bar, tables, chairs, linens... pretty much everything you need which is what I wanted in a venue since it made everything so much easier. Also, the price CANNOT be beat in this area with what they provided.

    The food was unbelievable at both the cocktail hour and reception. We ate there a few times for dinner prior to the wedding and were always wowed by the food. The quality did not differ when it came to a wedding! My guests are still talking about the risotto balls at cocktail hour more than 3 months later!

    The Shore and Country Club was the most amazing venue to hold our wedding reception!
    We knew we wanted to have our wedding on the water, and the ballroom at the Shore and CC has panoramic windows so all our guests could have a waters edge view during dinner!
    Everything about this venue exceeded our expectations. The cocktail hour is right on the water and the passed appetizers were delicious. My husband and I were able to get our pictures out on their private dock and take sunset pictures since the sun sets right over the water at the venue! It was breathtaking!
    The food for dinner was AMAZING! So many of our guests came up to us and said that they rarely enjoy food at weddings and that they finished their entire meal because the chicken francaise and prime rib were so delicious.
    Cherese, the vent manager, went above and beyond to make sure every little detail was exactly how we wanted. She was so easy to contact through email and phone and I always got a prompt response from her. A few days before the wedding we brought her a million things to set up and everything was set up in such a beautiful way. They really pay attention to detail and incorporate everything you give them.
    My husband and I even had our own waitress who made sure our champagne glass was never empty, that we had enough food and to check if we needed anything. I loved this, as it just made the whole night easier for us. I always heard of brides who never got to eat, but my husband and I ate everything!!!
    Not only is this venue BEAUTIFUL, they run everything SO smoothly. Absolutely nothing went wrong the entire night. Multiple guests came up to us and said that it was the prettiest and best wedding they had ever been to. Our guests got to take beautiful pictures of themselves and their dates on the water and dock and all enjoyed seeing the sun set as they ate their salad and appetizer.
    I cannot say how highly I would recommend this venue to other brides!!

    Shore and Country Club is a beautiful place to have a wedding reception. The pictures are perfect on the water and dock along with the great view during cocktail hour. The staff was amazing, they were always serving drinks, food, and making sure everyone was okay. The chef also worked with us on creating a custom menu which we greatly appreciated. I recommend having your reception at Shore and Country to anyone who loves a beatiful sunset! Thank you Shore and Country for making our wedding perfect!

    The Shore and Country Club exceeded all our expectations for our wedding on 7/19/14.

    LOCATION - We fell in love with the space immediately as the entire ballroom has windows directly looking out onto the water. Stepping out of the ballroom exit, the beach is only a few feet away, and there is a long dock extending out onto the water (where we did our 'First Look' pictures).

    COORDINATOR - Aside from the picturesque location, our event coordinator Cherese at the SCC walked us through every step of the process from start to finish. She was prompt, thorough, and professional in all of her correspondence with us, and was incredibly detail-oriented and attentive to all the small details of our day.

    We gave the SCC set ups for many different displays - guest book, escort cards, flip flops, favors, bean bag tosses outside, and a glow-stick bar (for the dance floor) - and Cherese set them up with the utmost care and attention. The displays were more picturesque than I had even imagined.

    Everything went smoothly and perfectly, and the staff at the event could not have been more pleasant, courteous and attentive to our guests.

    FOOD - The food was delicious. The passed appetizers were amazing. The salad was fresh and dressed well. For the entree, we chose the Chicken Francaise and the Prime Ribas our options, and both arrived to our guests hot and with ample portion size. From what we understand, a few pieces of the prime rib arrived to our guests undercooked, but the wait staff made sure to bring those pieces back to the kitchen to be cooked a bit more to each guests liking.

    There is no charge for bringing in your own dessert, which is great compared to many of the other venues we visited. However, due to food safety concerns, only desserts from licensed bakeries are permitted in to the venue.

    We cannot thank the SCC enough!!
