    The best decision we made!

    We got married at YCSIC in Sept 2023. It was the honestly the best choice we made for our wedding. Caitlin, the coordinator, was absolutely amazing, answered all our questions and made sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. The rest of the staff we met was also fantastic and helped make sure everything ran smoothly. The venue itself is so beautiful especially being right on the water. We loved the simple decor because it really just let the view be the main center point. Having the bar upstairs for our after party was so easy and it made things so simple for us and our guests. The pricing was great and food was amazing. I absolutely cannot recommend YCSIC enough.
    We had the best day and planning was not stressful with all their help.

    YCSIC was absolutely Amazing!

    I wish I could give more than 5 stars! I had my wedding here mid-May and it was better than I could have ever imagined. Food was incredible, staff was absolutely outstanding, and everything went so well! From set-up, questions, specific requests, the Yacht Club coordinator Caitlin was there to assist. She is wonderful along with the whole YCSIC staff. Even when my dress bustle broke, a staff member helped me in the bathroom with her own sewing kit to make sure my night went perfect. Wish I could relive the day and night all over again

    Incredible Wedding Venue!

    We got married at the Yacht Club and everything was amazing!! We were originally supposed to have our wedding and reception in September 2020 but had to move everything to September 2021 due to the pandemic. The Yacht Club was extremely accommodating with the whole process of needing to move the wedding. Additionally, the event coordinator was very detail-oriented. I gave her the details of how I wanted things set up the day of the wedding and they took care of everything. People really enjoyed the food, commenting that it was so much better than typical wedding food (and I definitely agree). Overall we had an incredible time, and so did all of our guests.

    Great to work with, amazing views!

    Heather and YCSIC have been amazing to work with. We were supposed to have our wedding on 6/6/20 but due to the pandemic we weren’t able to. The club typically does not have late summer weddings, however opened up Saturday dates for us to change to! We moved to 8/22, but with all of the current restrictions we were nervous to have our event. Heather and the yacht club were amazing and gave us multiple options (new dates for 2020, postpone to 2021, or a full refund). Unfortunately with restrictions and postponing once already we decided to take the refund, but the yacht club was amazing to work with. I have heard horror stories from other venues keeping money and not allowing guests to cancel or postpone during this time. During the planning process, Heather was so amazing to work with and quickly answered all of our questions. We are sad we won’t be able to have our day here, but would highly recommend YCSIC for a wedding! The food at our tasting was great and views are spectacular.

    The best!

    Heather and the entire YCSIC team were the absolute best to work with for our wedding. They made our dream happen perfectly and truly made us feel like family. From the ease of planning, the stunning venue, the delicious food and the professional staff, everything was amazing. Our guests can't stop talking about how great everything was. We highly recommend.

    best. wedding venue. Ever!

    WOW. My husband, our families, our friends, and myself could not be more blown away by the SICYC. Every single staff member that worked our wedding was incredible. Heather Garrabrant deserves a special shout out. She was a huge deciding factor for us when choosing our venue. She was so extremely organized and efficient. My wedding day would not have run as smooth if it wasn’t for Heather. I honestly cannot day enough good things about the yacht club. The food, service, views were all incredible. I would 10/10 recommend to anyone!!!

    Amazing Staff, Beautiful Venue

    Heather and the entire team at YCSIC were a dream to work with. Heather is a true professional when it comes to weddings and works seamlessly with your other vendors. She steps up where ever there is a need and without you even being aware she orchestrates every moment of your day. Her flexibility is amazing. The food was delicious from apps to entrees and many guest mentioned this to us as well. The venue is gorgeous and allows for flexibility in what your day might look like.

    The Best Day EVER!

    The YCSIC made our dream wedding day come true! Heather and the YCSIC team were super easy to work with. They put all our worries at ease. Heather especially is very organized ,attentive and goes above and beyond to make sure everything comes together for not only the bride, but for the wedding party and family. We really could not have asked for a better venue and appreciate all their hard work- Not to mention the view is amazing!!!

    Amazing venue

    We searched 10 locations from Cape May to Sea Isle and not only fell in love with the venue but with the sunset. Heater the wedding planner was also the best. I can’t imagine not having Heather. So knowledgable, professional and most of all calm. There was nothing she wouldn’t do or help us with. The compliments on the food were overwhelming positive. I would do it all over again at the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City.

They are very organized, very attentive, and truly cared about the outcome of the day. Service and food were amazing, and our guests are raving about it! Our big day turned out better than we ever imagined. Much love and thanks to Heather and her team! Highly recommend!

    Heather and all of the YCSIC staff are amazing!

    Everyone at YCSIC is amazing! The food was delicious!! Above and beyond your typical wedding food. All of the staff were incredibly professional, accommodating, and attentive. We originally were interested in this venue because of its location, but after meeting with Heather and seeing it in person we were sold. In the months leading up to our wedding, she was never too busy to answer any of our questions, and always made us feel like ours was the only wedding she was concerned about. She was a joy to plan with - very accommodating and detail oriented. I didn't feel I had to stress about anything because I trusted she understood exactly what I envisioned and she definitely did not disappoint! Everything was perfect!!

    I cannot say enough great things about this venue!! Heather and the rest of staff were phenomenal!! Food was great and we heard from many guests that they were happily full before the main course came out. Heather encouraged us to try a different type of dinner bc we weren’t really into a traditional sit down - so we had a slider bar and fries along with a bunch of sides - it was such a hit! You really can’t beat the sunset view off the dock- our wedding pics were awesome!! If you want a beach ceremony they set it up and take it down. Zero stress leading up to the big day and definitely none on the day of! Thank you yacht club staff and especially heather for the best day!!

    Incredible wedding venue!

    We had the most wonderful wedding at the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City. We looked at a ton of venues in the South Jersey area and as soon as we stepped into the YCSIC we knew it was where we wanted to hold our reception. The building is bright, clean and spacious. The wrap around windows ensure that all of your guests will have a great view of the bay regardless of the weather. The food was incredible. All of our guests raved about the scallops and prime rib. Perhaps the greatest part of having your wedding at the YCSIC is that you get to work with Heather. She is incredible! She is so well organized and on top of everything. Heather is happy to answer any question you might have leading up to the wedding. She was especially helpful and flexible the week prior when we were unsure about the weather on the wedding day. I can't imagine planning a wedding without Heather!

    My son got married at the SIYC Sunday September 9th 2018. He and his fiancee planned the wedding with Heather the most calm, collected human being ever. The setting is beautiful, and fresh. The families were able to sample every appetizer along with several other couples and their families at a special private event taste testing event. We got to have a family style meal of each of the 3 or 4 dinner selection they considered. I am not one for pork chops but theirs was the best. Heather offered many cost savings options. The night of our event came. The drinks, food and the staff were exceptional. The staff very accommodating. Here's the kicker. It poured that day, high winds and with the high tide at 9 PM, the road flooded. The staff was amazingly competent, moving cars out of harm's way. Heather was calm. The waters receded and all was well. The food was outstanding. A rainy wedding was sunny at the Sea Isle Yatch Club

    From the moment I walked into sea isle yacht club I felt so comfortable with their coordinater , Heather. The venue is absolutely stunning , but the best part is having Heather there along the entire way. For someone who is as OCD as myself Heather was the perfect person to calm every nerve & make the entire process nothing short of perfect. She is the reason my wedding & the wedding process was so stress free. I cannot reccoment SIC YC enough and especially working with heather. The food was unbelieveable my guest are still raving about it months later . Every single thing came together so perfectly from the moment we booked with them!

    When we walked in to the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City, we immediately fell in love with the floor to ceiling view of the bay and the openness of the club. We wanted an outside wedding but the only date that was available was late March and liked that one of the outside areas was heated. We decided to have our ceremony on the dock. Chairs were set up for us and other could watch from one of the two decks overlooking the dock. It was just beautiful! Heather, the event coordinator, was extremely helpful and answered all of our questions and presented us with questions we didn't think to ask! She was extremely responsive and helpful with recommendations and accommodating our needs. The food was amazing and even our vegans and gluten free friends loved their meals. The entire wedding was run on time and my husband and I didn't have to worry about a thing (even when one of my husband's friends showed up but didn't respond yes as Heather took care of him!). I would recommend YCSIC to anyone as it is truly a beautiful place to host and event and Heather and Jim are just wonderful.

    Everything was perfect. Heather and the rest of the staff were extremely helpful throughout the entire process and were accommodating to our needs; such as our families having food allergies and they were willing to work with us on the menu. The inside and out outside were both absolutely gorgeous and the color scheme worked perfectly with what we were going for!!! The food was excellent all of my guests raved about the flat iron stake and the cheese stake egg rolls :). I can not thank you guys enough for making my day so very special

    I'm the owner of KD Photography in Sea Isle City, NJ and I have photographed many weddings and family events at the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City over the years. My sister and brother-in-law were also married there in November of 2017. I can't say enough about how perfect their wedding was, and also how wonderful my experience has been working as a vendor there for all different events.

    From a professional wedding vendor's point of view, not only is it a beautiful event location with the perfect backdrop of the sunset over the bay, but it's also truly ideal for pictures with the layout of the reception room, decks for cocktail hour, and just overall modern feel, giving the clients the ability to add their touches wherever they'd like. The staff there is also amazing. Heather is a wonderful coordinator who is extremely talented at her job. She's personable, laid-back, and always helpful to the vendors there, which makes everything run incredibly smoothly. The entire staff is pleasant and helpful as well.

    From a client's perspective everything is just as wonderful. It was extremely windy the day of my sister's wedding and we ended up having to do the ceremony inside instead of out on the dock. It was no problem at all. The entire staff was ready to help turn the room around to set up for a beautiful, last-minute indoor ceremony, and then as all the guests went upstairs to cocktail hour, they reset the room for the reception. Heather and everyone there were so helpful and flexible with everything my sister, brother-in-law, (and the rest of us) needed or wanted. And the bartenders also make amazing drinks (which made giving my speech a little bit easier).

    Overall, as a vendor and a guest/client, I can say that I absolutely love working with the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City, and highly recommend them as your venue for any event you are looking to have!!

    As the mother of the bride, I worked closely with Heather. She was a fantastic partner as my daughter and I worked our way through the planning process. The wedding was everything we hoped it would be. Heather and the whole staff at the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City were wonderful. I can't say enough good things about them.

    Heather and her staff were unbelievable. They took my ideas for decorations and made the place look 100 times better than I imagined. Heather was very responsive to emails and made the experience so stress free. The team at the yacht club were amazing and the place is gorgeous. Our guests are still raving about sunset pictures and overlooking the ceremony from the deck.

    Heather and the staff at the YCSIC were absolutely phenomenal with helping make our Wedding Day perfect and easy. YCSIC was the first and only venue that we looked at for our wedding and there was not a single thing which I would have changed about our day. The ceremony and reception went so smooth and the YCSIC was very accommodating to our requests. Our guests raved about the food and the bartenders were so friendly to our guests. We look forward to attending more events in the near future at the YCSIC! Thanks for helping make our wedding dreams come true!
