Ask Claudia: Charming, Laid Back Wedding Venue

Jump to Comments

Marissa, East Rockaway

Q:  My fiance and I are looking for  unique and fun wedding locations that matches our creative personalities.  We are both beach lovers (we live on the beach) and would have love to marry in Key West, but don’t want a destination wedding.  Overall, we want a wedding that is classy, but as a laid back Key West feel to it.  We also love the charm of the historical houses that can be found in places such as Key West.   I would love to find a unique place that captures that vibe…preferably on or close to the water but not a necessity.     We do have a budget.

A:  Marissa, you are not alone in your quest for a unique, laid back venue, one that has charm and has a beachy feel to it, all on Long Island.  Take a look at some of our previous Ask Claudia questions on this topic here and you’ll find a good number of specific venues that might meet your requirements.  In addition, here’s one more idea:  check out Dreamer’s Cove Inn & Spa in Aquebogue.   This little hideaway overlooks Peconic Bay and you can get married right on the beach.   It has a romantic and rustic ambiance that sounds like what you are looking for!
