Recently had our winter wedding at Sand Castle. Sand Castle is absolutely beautiful and the staff is amazing. Our wedding was a month ago and everything turned out even better than as planned! Everyone had a great time and loved the food! There is absolutely no better feeling than to hear endless compliments from guests and it is all thanks to Sand Castle. We wish we could relive the day. Loula and Frank are absolutely the kindest most helpful people you can ever come across. We are so thankful for them and all of the staff at Sand Castle for making our special day truly magical. Couldn't recommend this venue more!

What more can I say but that this venue made my wife’s and I dream come true. Hands down, this was by far the best experience having our wedding day hosted by Sand Castle. From beginning to end, we were met with professionalism, no-hassle conversations, and support. I would like to personally give a shout out to Jaime, Loula and Frank who exceeded all of our expectations throughout the process of planning our wedding. Sand Castle was the 5th venue my wife and I were considering and we were glad we checked this venue out. First and foremost, this venue hosts 1 wedding at a time!! Trust me when I say that this is extremely essential. The attention to detail the staff provided us on our wedding day went above and beyond our expectations. Several venues we had toured prior to Sand Castle would host 2, even 3 weddings at a time. Sand Castle alone sets themselves apart by allowing the couple getting married to know that they are the center of attention; something I can imagine would be an issue with other venues. My wife and I got married in early August 2024 at Sand Castle. The attention to detail is incomprehensible. The vision we shared with the staff leading up to the wedding is exactly what we laid out, and then some. The food was excellent and beyond delicious. We were given three signature drinks and wowed our guests with a martini bar that dropped from the ceiling. We also had the Viennese hour that made our guests jaws drop, literally. Anything my wife and I requested, the staff accommodated without question. We had a couple of bridal attendants, Jaycee and Emily who also provided my wife and I excellent service. Kudos to them! I will review Genesis Events (DJ) separately but the venue partners with this DJ group a lot. I would highly recommend them for your DJ needs if booking a wedding at Sand Castle. They have systems at Sand Castle (intelligent light show, dancing on clouds, etc.) to make the experience at Sand Castle seem regal. Lastly, the venue gave us a completely 5 day stay at a hotel in Crete, Greece. We could sit here and continue to go on and on about how luxurious Sand Castle made our wedding but you must see it for yourselves. The grounds are beautiful for photography pictures as well. All in one a great place to hold your wedding. 0 regrets, 0 complaints. 5 stars without a hesitation. Thank you Sand Castle team!

As a photographer, it is so nice to have great indoor and outdoor options for wedding pictures and video. They have a great garden area with a fountain, but also a brick section for outdoor ceremonies and a huge lobby if the weather isn't on our side 🙂 The ballroom entrance has to be seen to be believed!

Beautiful venue! The food was rubbery and stale, and some staff were rude. But we had a beautiful wedding

Gorgeous, majestic, super clean and organized, perfect for any event. So much personnel kind and helpful. Valet parking, lights, space, curtains, staircases and many more reasons to pick this place over!

Having our wedding at Sand Castle was the best decision we could have made. From the beginning, Loula and Jamie were there every step of the way to help answer questions as we started planning. We never went more than a few hours before hearing back from them, which was refreshing! We were able to go a few times to bring family and friends to tour, and every time we were treated like family, with desserts and drinks provided. Once we got closer to our wedding day, Frank took over, and he was an absolute pleasure to work with. About a month out, I was asking him questions almost every day, and he was always happy to help. We had a few last minute changes that needed to happen, and he did them with absolutely no problem at all. You can tell these 3 have been in the industry for so long just by the way they are able to ease your mind with the stress of planning.

On our wedding day, we had Martin and Lucas as our maitred’s, and Emily and Justin as our bridal attendants. These 4 were amazing!!! Martin and Lucas made sure our vision came to life, guests were taken care of, and everything ran on schedule. Emily and Justin were our right-hand’s, and we couldn’t have had such an incredible night without them. They made sure we ate, had a drink in hand, eased our nerves, bustled my dress, made sure my train was fixed for pictures, and packed everything up at the end of the night. The service between these 4 was truly amazing, and they knew what we needed before we even asked for it.

The venue itself is gorgeous, with many places for pictures. Our guests were raving about it as well, and everyone had an incredible time. THANK YOU Sand Castle team!!
