We could not be happier with everything that Sea Cliff Manor provided us with from our very first meeting with Nick to the moment we said good bye to Ian and stepped out of the door after picking up our decorations. Professional and detail oriented doesn’t even begin to describe the team at SCM.

From our first meeting with Nick, we knew that this was the wedding venue for us. Their packages and prices stood out to us as incredibly reasonable for what we got included with our wedding. On top of that, Nick was reassuring and is in the business to make sure that your special day is exactly as you envision it.

As time went on, the SCM team, especially Donna and Ian, were very responsive to all of our questions and made sure that no question went unanswered. The communication from the venue was superb and left us knowing that we were in great hands with people who know the industry inside and out.

The lead up to the big day went so smoothly and the SCM once again made every effort to make sure that we were making informed decisions. The pre-wedding tasting was a wonderful time with our parents where we got to taste samples of highlighted menu items. This helped us make decisions for our cocktail hour and dinner choices. More on the food later.

Ian is the true MVP.. some would even say that he’s the GOAT. We’ve met with and spoke to Ian a few times before our final details meeting. We knew that he was fantastic, but the final details meeting left us feeling appreciated, heard and supported. Ian ran through all of the minor details at length and left no stone unturned. We went over the menu, drink options, timeframe of the day, vendors (including outside vendors) and even the finer details about table set up, linens, and specialty drinks. Ian made everything work and was so reassuring that our vision for the day would come to fruition.

Now, for the big day:

- Pre-ceremony photos: as we were working with our photographer, the SCM team made sure that all of our needs were met. They provided some snacks for the bridal suite and provided drinks for our thirstier guests. The bridal suites are newly renovated and immaculately kept. They fit the vibe of the venue and are a comfy, calm place for the bridal party to relax before the day really starts. As we were taking photos, Ian and the team were working tirelessly to get the venue ready for the day.

- The ceremony: the beautiful space outside was picture perfect and set up with such attention to detail. Ian and our Bridal Attendant, Camille, kept everything on pace and worked their hardest to keep our bridal party in line and moving from pictures to the ceremony.

- Cocktail Hour: While we would have loved to have the cocktail hour outside on their gorgeous property, we had to make the decision to have it inside due to some cold, windy weather. This ended up not being a setback or disappointment at all. Their indoor set up for inclement weather was spacious and gave all of our guests the opportunity to have space to eat, drink and mingle. The best part was that the SCM team set up the bride and groom table in the perfect spot to be able to eat and say hello all of our guests passing by. Our Bridal Attendant was adamant about us eating and getting ready to have that stamina for partying into the evening. The cocktail hour food was a hit and we had so many options to choose from to make sure that our guests had a diverse selection. Our specialty drinks were also a hit, which was made possible by the SCM bartending staff. They came up with some amazing creations based on our non traditional drink recipes. Again, anything we asked, they made it happen even better than we could have imagined.

- The dinner: All of our guests commented after the wedding about how amazing the food was. Sometimes at other wedding venues it can be clear that the food was mass produced without much thought or care. This is NOT the case at SCM. All of our chosen dinners came out to perfection and had been plated with beautiful attention to detail. The filet mignon was cooked to perfection, the chicken stayed juicy and flavorful, and the salmon was flaky and tender without over or under cooking. The kitchen staff here knows what they’re doing, for sure.

- The reception: Everything we needed, everything we could ask for, and everything we had questions about, Ian and Camille were on it! Ian took the lead on EVERYTHING and was so involved in the small details. It is so clear that Ian not only takes pride in his work, but also absolutely relishes in being the logistical and creative director that he is (he also has some great cologne and the fit is immaculate). During our reception as we partied the night away, the SCM staff took care of everything we needed to make sure that we could enjoy our moment without worry. Any issues that came up with outside vendors, they handled with poise and professionalism. Without their support, we would have been so stressed trying to make everything right. We are so beyond grateful for the amazing staff at this high class venue.

I’m not sure what else to say that might convince you to have your special day here. Sea Cliff should be on your list—at the top of your list. We were truly treated like family during the planning process, and treated like royalty on our wedding day.

Thank you SO much to Nick, Ian, Donna, Camille and the incredible staff of the Sea Cliff Manor. You made our day truly unforgettable!

My husband and I recently had the pleasure of hosting our wedding at Sea Cliff Manor, and it was nothing short of a fairytale come true. Every aspect of our special day, from the fantastic food to the impeccable service, was beyond exceptional.

The moment we stepped onto the grounds of Sea Cliff Manor, we knew we had found the perfect place to celebrate our love. The venue's stunning architecture, manicured grounds, and breathtaking views of the water created a romantic and magical atmosphere that left our guests in awe.

What truly set Sea Cliff Manor apart was the exceptional service we received. Ian, the maître d', and Camille, our bridal attendant, were the stars of the evening. They were not just there to facilitate our day; they anticipated our needs, ensuring everything ran seamlessly behind the scenes. From coordinating with vendors to helping the bridal party and guests, Ian and Camille were professional, attentive, and incredibly kind. Their dedication and expertise made us feel like royalty.

Our decision to choose Sea Cliff Manor as our wedding venue was undoubtedly one of the best choices we made for our special day and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. We highly recommend Sea Cliff Manor to any couple looking for a picturesque, elegant, and meticulously managed wedding venue. Thank you to the entire team at Sea Cliff Manor for making our wedding day an unforgettable experience, and a heartfelt thank you to Ian and Camille for being the dream team that ensured our day went off without a hitch. Our wedding was a fairytale, and it was all thanks to you!

I had my wedding reception at Sea Cliff Manor on August 24, 2023. I never imagined I would feel this happy after my wedding day it’s literally all I can think about. I wish I could re-live it. I’m so happy we chose Sea Cliff Manor to celebrate our special day. We have our friends and family messaging us saying how much fun they had and how it was the best night. Nick made us feel like we were apart of the family from the start when we were just checking out the venue. Donna assisted us a lot leading up to the big day and was super informative and helpful. Ian was a master maitre d’ and I really don’t know how he does it. He’s brilliant. He made everything run so smoothly and I was so thankful he was there! My bridal attendant was Camille and she was AMAZING! Literally best bridal attendant I could ask for. She made sure I ate and was taken care of. And she’s also just an awesome person to talk to. I suffer from bad anxiety and they all made me feel at ease. The rest of the staff were just as amazing. They all made sure our guests were taken care of.

My only regret is being disappointed in the weather. It wasn’t supposed to rain that day and it did. We were looking forward to an outdoor cocktail hour since they have such a beautiful outdoor space in the garden. Cocktail hour ended up being inside and the staff set it up beautifully and it looked amazing. It gave our guests an opportunity to explore the beautiful rooms of the inside (especially the speakeasy!) Guests were still going outside during the reception to check it out. It really was the most amazing day. The Staff at Sea Cliff Manor really went above and beyond.

I remember when we first went to check out the venue, a bride was walking in to pick up her things from her wedding the night before and she said to me “if you’re on the fence just do it. It was amazing here you won’t regret it.” And she really was right. I couldn’t imagine a better venue to have my reception at and I will cherish these memories forever. Thank you Sea Cliff Manor!
