Galilee Beach Club Reviews

What a beautiful beautiful venue. We had our wedding on a gorgeous fall day and it was absolutely everything we wanted. Emily was wonderful and super accommodating to exactly what our vision was. I loved that we were able to customize the day to suit our needs and desires. We had fire pits at night with lit tiki torches lining the beach and the tiki bar was a huge hit. We were able to have our band play outside so our dance floor was right in the sand overlooking the ocean waves. The vibe at Galilee beach club is so laid back which is one of the reasons why we chose it to be our venue, but they know how to get things done and handled and are very professional. The food was excellent and all hand made in house. Make sure to get the beef Wellington, UNREAL! As a professional wedding photographer, let me tell you that the light is perfect for photos on the beach and you will get the most beautiful sunset over the water! A++ I can’t believe more people don’t know about this place. 100 % the best choice for us in the wedding planning process! Thank you Galilee Beach Club for making our day the best day ever!!

Emily was absolutely amazing with all things wedding!! She thought of things we had not even considered, and made the process so easy from start to finish. We did not need to worry about a thing- she took care of it all and was so responsive throughout the planning process. During our wedding day the staff at Galilee beach club was so attentive to our needs and always checking on us. And our guests raved about the food!

The team at Galilee Beach Club absolutely knocked it out of the park for my June 2023 beach wedding. Emily was my main point of contact. She is wonderful to work with! She made the planning process a breeze. She is organized, professional, knowledgeable, and just overall a wonderful person. I was worried that planning would be stressful going into it, but she was so easy to work with and my worries subsided immediately once I knew our wedding was in the BEST of hands. The whole team at Galilee is great- we had to switch up our timeline mid-event due to the weather and everyone was on top of everything. No one missed a beat. The food and drinks were also great! I would absolutely recommend Galilee Beach Club to anyone looking for a RI beach wedding. If you're looking for a place to get married on the beach, this is the place!

Defiantly recommend this venue. The staff is so attentive and make you feel special. The food is amazing. Everyone who attended our event loved their meal and the service. Beautiful scenery as well. Our ceremony was right on the beach in October and the weather was perfect. The best part is the staff really makes you feel special.

Galilee Beach Club was absolutely a wonderful venue, and I couldn't recommend it enough!! I've always wanted a beach wedding without breaking the bank and stumbled across Galilee. We took a tour of the venue and fell in love. It was the only venue we looked at and we booked it right on the spot! Galilee Beach Club was the PERFECT venue. Between the beautiful ocean views and the lovely nautically decorated premises, I couldn't believe we were able to secure this venue at such a reasonable cost. Chris and Emily were absolutely amazing to work with. They were very understanding and relaxed, making our needs/wants the utmost priority. Not only were they so attentive throughout the whole planning process, but Chris was right there every step of the way on the big day to make sure everything went as smooth as possible. (and it did, it was the best day ever! There were no hiccups whatsoever) The food was great and the staff/service was incredible! Nobody wanted for anything. I received so many complements from my guests about Galilee Beach Club & how amazing their staff was. My only regret is that I don't have another occasion to book the venue out again.... just yet! lol

A very happy bride,

David and I were in great communication through the entire process! I moved from the East coast to the West coast in the middle of my engagement, so it was challenging not being in the area while we continued planning the wedding. I must have sent David emails weekly once it got down to the last few months before the wedding, and he was so responsive and helpful and it made it that much easier! The venue is absolutely gorgeous, I fell in love immediately after visiting the first time. I highly recommend Galilee Beach Club if you're looking for a beach venue! The only downsides I have are in-house catering, we couldn't pick a catering company and the catering at Galilee was pretty pricey, another downside was that there was not enough time in the evening for everything. We did an evening wedding from 6-11pm and the food wasn't even served until close to 8:30pm. I felt rushed to get speeches done as well as first dances and reception dancing. ALSO, their audio kind of sucked. It was so hard to hear the music for dancing and their microphone quality isn't the greatest. We had the microphone outside during the ceremony and one of my friends sang a song, and it was so muffled and difficult to listen to. I wish the microphone was better quality because my friend has a stunning voice and the microphone was kind of a fail. And if you do a Spotify playlist or use their audio, I highly recommend a Bluetooth speaker or another audio set up.

My husband and I had our ceremony and reception at Galilee Beach Club in September. Everything was so beautiful! The inside reception area is fresh, clean, and light. The deck is quite large. All areas have wonderful views of the beach. The beach itself is private and you have the whole place to yourself. They change managers quite frequently, but all were easy to work with. If I could do it every year it would be at the Beach Club!! Definitely a gem!

Our daughter chose the Galilee Beach Club for her wedding last weekend (June 4, 2016). It was the best choice ever!
The venue is casual, yet beautiful. With the help of gorgeous weather, the ceremony was held on the beach with the sound of waves in the background. Our caterer, Kevin Millonzi, did a top notch job of providing the best food and service possible. Everyone raved about the appetizers, meals and especially the heirloom tomato salad!! This truly was a wedding dream come true for our daughter, her husband and all of our extended family and friends. Bravo Galilee Beach Club!!

Galilee Beach Club was an absolutely gorgeous place for our wedding. The breathtaking view and the rustic, beach club charm make for a beautiful venue. We had about 110 guests which was the perfect amount without it being too tight and Milonzis Fine Catering which is Galiee's exclusive caterer does an AMAZING job.

We loved the Galilee Beach Club!! It was a simple yet stunning venue for our Sunday morning wedding. The staff was very easy to work with in the months leading up to our event, and they were always prompt to answer any questions that we had. Our guests commented over and over that they LOVED the Galilee Beach Club, and that their private beach was the absolute perfect venue for a wedding. The food was excellent, the reception room was beautiful, and the dugout area was the perfect place to gather and calm our nerves before the ceremony. Overall, we are thrilled that we chose the Galilee Beach Club.

We held our wedding ceremony and reception at Galilee Beach Club and had the most amazing and memorable experience. First, the set up was perfect for an outdoor ceremony. Weather is always a concern when planning an outdoor wedding and the club made sure there was a contingency plan in place if the weather did not cooperate. Millonzi Catering provided the food and it was great! I am still hearing how good the food was!!! The club made our wedding day one of the best days of our lives. I would highly recommend this venue!!! Excellent value for the money.

It is a dream beach wedding location!! The manager Wendy
was professional and took care of complete setup!

Ideal location for beach wedding, fabulous staff that helps with everything

We had the best wedding ever at Galilee Beach Club. The venue needs very little decor, the beach is gorgeous and Wendy, the club manager is great to work with.

The staff at Galilee Beach Club we’re fantastic! Words cannot even begin to fathom how supportive, professional, friendly, and flexible they are. From the largest tasks to the smallest details, Emily and her staff made our day the smoothest it could have been. We were in constant communication with Emily throughout the entire planning process, and she was accommodating every step of the way. We were able to use our own vendors, bring in our own decorations, all at an affordable price given the beauty of the venue itself! We loved Emily and her staff and will be forever grateful for their assistance.

As soon as we visited the Galilee Beach Club, we knew this was the perfect venue for our beach wedding. Our original plans of a destination wedding were canceled due to COVID but this ended up being so much better. David was awesome - always set up an appointment to meet whenever I had questions and was very helpful and accommodating. I highly recommend this venue - all of our guests raved about the food and the beauty of the venue.

Had our reception there absolutely beautiful! Wish they had a better catering company. But the location and venue were amazing!

I loved our venue it was so beautiful and everyone loved how beautiful it was! The only complaint is the catering company. Don’t use Kevin Millonzi catering they are very unprofessional and will not answer you as soon as you give them the deposit. Then they will blame you even when you’ve emailed and called them many times and they do not respond until the week before your wedding. It’s horrible working with them I would definitely demand you to use a different company or just not have food there at all it’s not worth the trouble.

Venue is beautiful and the staff is extremely kind and helpful. However they only put 40 chairs for a 60 person wedding, which is apparently standard for a beach wedding. I also wish there was a bit more freedom for what we were allowed to do ourselves. (Such as providing our own beverages-like a lemonade stand for example) And the 'bridal suite' downstairs is also their storage room. When we added our own stuff there was hardly any room to actually get ready, and the pictures weren't very pretty. We had a really good experience overall however, and I would definitely recommend using them.

Galilee Beach Club is not a formal venue but the location (on a good or bad day) is amazing. Everyone was helpful and enthusiastic and worked very hard to make our event memorable. Kevin Millonzi who catered the wedding was amazing to work with. There were only raves about the food and his staff worked incredibly hard. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants a smaller, less formal affair.

Beautiful venue on the beach with a beautiful reception area.

I would highly recommend The Galilee Beach Club. They did an excellent job of meeting all of our needs and requests. The inside of the hall has been completely redone and looks amazing. The food was absolutely delicious, my husband and I had nothing to complain about.

The employees and wedding coordinator were polite, courteous and a great help in making my day special.

My fiance, mom and soon to be mother in law as well as myself met with Dave and Millonozi fine catering not too long ago. They were able to answer all our questions, seeming very willing to work with us but also being realistic. We loved the vibe, simplicity and overall view of the club. We have since booked them and are planning to marry there in two summers!

The venue is small but very nice. One thing to note is that you have no choice in a caterer if you chose this venue. The catering company is okay at best. Kevin (the caterer) was very nice and detailed before he got our money, then seemed to disappear and to procrastinate on most things after we paid him. He was at the wedding for 70% of it and left before it ended. The waitstaff is nice but did some things that were not warranted during the night, like give away part of the bridal party's cake, tell guests they can sit wherever they'd like to, not save any appetizers for the bridal party, etc.
Wendy was the original manager when we booked. Then, they switch managers to David. He was not nearly as accommodating as Wendy seemed to be. First off, Wendy reached out to us many times during the course of the time before the wedding. She tried to keep track of what other vendors we were using and describing certain details about the place. We were traveling from south Texas for our wedding there. So, she was helpful to us since we couldn't go there in person. On the other hand, David only reached out once to introduce himself. I was able to easily schedule both a tour and rehearsal with him via email though. He was prompt to get back to me. Once we got to the venue to take a tour, he didn't seem to care very much about showing us the place and we had to wait for him to arrive to unlock the building. Then, he called the night before the rehearsal to say he had to work at his other job and wouldn't be there for the rehearsal. He did however allow us to use the grounds that we could access without a key. He just overall seemed much less professional than Wendy. All of this was okay to deal with before the wedding. But, the day of the wedding, he apparently wasn't even there. That striked me as problematic because at the end of the evening there were a few issues that needed to be hashed out. The wedding turned out great. There was just issues with management.
