We wanted something different. We took 1 step into Everly and knew it was it! The way this place is taken care of and decorated is far beyond my imagination. From the old papers on the ceiling tiles to the completely unique lighting throughout... its STUNNING. This venue doesnt need much "wedding decor" because it is beautiful on its own! We had our ceremony in the antique store in front of the large open door, old church pews & antique chairs for our guests... just beautiful! From there the reception with the farm tables & antique dishes...perfection! Dealing with the staff was an absolute blast! They made it seem so simple. Everyone I spoke to regarding the wedding planning with the venue always said to keep in mind that most venues arent very personable, you are just a number...that was the furthest from the truth here. These ladies all knew who I was, what we loved, and everything about our wedding! Michelle, Samantha, Claudia - we truly thank you ladies for making our planning process and most importantly our big day so special! There is no way we could have done this without you(and the guys!). We feel like we left our wedding with new friends, we love you guys! We WILL be back...cant get rid of me that easily!!!

Our family reunion vacation week for our mother's 80th Birthday at Tom and Mary Ann's house was…read morenothing short of fantastic! The weather was great..even with the complimentary downpour day to let the skin come off sizzle mode..just perfect. We were a large family group... family coming in from NY, NM, Ca and Germany. We pushed the limits in space but with the backyard patio area, rooftop hot tub soaking deck (special accolades to that), the ocean so close and so many places you could walk, bike, paddle to we never at all came to in your face situations... which we all know with family is usually inevitable. We wanted to do something special for our Mom (Omi) for her birthday so we took Mary Ann and Tom's referral and hired the caterer that they suggested... we did a luau theme and they came to the house with the pig roast complete with Hawaiian veges and salads. I for one was amazed that we actually surprised her but I do believe we really pulled it off. We were initially hesitant to rent because of landowners sharing the same house..but we started our search late and there weren't many options to accommodate our large group so we took the chance. Couldn't have been any farther from the fears we had to reality. Always friendly and helpful.. never intrusive or controlling. By the time we left it felt like we were leaving old friends.... the hot donuts Mary Ann brought us from an old time LBI donut shop, the morning before we left sealed the deal! Our family grew up summers in LBI..staying with friends that owned and/or our family renting for weeks at a time. I think I can speak for our family in saying we came home that week. A wonderful magical place in our memories. Lucky me got to share it with my granddaughter while my Mom (Omi) is still with us and oh so big a center of our family. 4 generations of LBI addicts.... what better place to enjoy family!

The whole set up is confusing. You have to wait to get seated, but then you have to go order your drinks and your food separately a la fast food restaurant vibe. And when I say drinks and food separately, I mean, order food in one line and go to a separate line to order wine. No opportunity to have a taste before you commit to a glass if you want to try several different whites or several different reds you have to order a flight. Because nobody's pouring you a sip and asking you what you think. I'd have had a better experience drinking a bottle of wine at home.

A decent light red you could pair with anything without offense. The Cabetnet was not for me, but I enjoyed the Merlot and took a bottle to dinner at Primal by Mia, to accompany a steakhouse dinner. Generous pours and comfortable seating make for a decent experience. It ain't Napa but it's a decent way to spend a rainy afternoon.

I planned this beautiful three day weekend with my wife at the Jersey shore…read more I made a mix tape (Are there still mix tapes? I put together a song list) of all of her favorite songs. We're going to jump in my old Corvette, listen to tunes and go to a Bed & Breakfast on the beach. Well, my Corvette transmission decided to self destruct on the highway. I pivoted, had the car towed and threw all the luggage in the Tesla (Gotta love the Tesla, my energizer bunny) turned on Carole King and headed south. We wake up the next day and its pouring rain outside. Really mother nature, are you trying to sabotage my weekend? I made a mix tape... Quick thinking, If I were back in New York, what would I do? Easy, go to a local vineyard and chill out. Are there vineyards in New Jersey? I did a yelp search and found Jessie Creek Winery in Cape May New Jersey. Lemme put on Nat King Cole and set the nav to Jessie Creek Winery. Pulling up, its a little mysterious. It doesn't look like a conventional vineyard but more like a place to buy John Deere apparel. Once inside, I can see the place is jumping. There is a lounge singer in the main area and art sales in the room to the left. To me, the concept is a little off. Look at the board, buy your glass or bottle and have a seat. I mean, isn't the purpose of a vineyard to offer all of their wines for tasting? You might have 3 red wines, I might like the Pino more over the cabernet. People usually buy a case for a holiday party and want to taste what they'll be serving. Hey, I'm not going to figure out their business plan. I'm just here to have a glass of wine and relax. My wife has a glass of wine in her hand and is listening to the lounger singer. My wine choice was their Cabernet, it was pretty good. My wife is happy so I'm happy. Mike Charlie - Mission Complete L is for the way you look at me..

I had my wedding here in May 2008…read more I don't know if you are can find a nicer and less expensive spot down the Jersey shore to have your nuptials! It was fairly recently renovated, and the place is bright and airy with very nice hardwood floors and renovated bathrooms. The kitchen isn't updated but that shouldn't matter as long as you are having caterers bring everything to you. The nicest thing about the civic club is that you can hire anyone you want! This is very different from a lot of hotels and other venues, which come with their own lists of acceptable vendors. We were going to get married on the beach (after getting our permit through Stone Harbor) but it ended up misting all day long, so we had our nuptials in the club facing the doors. It wasn't exactly what I would have chosen, but it was okay. If I had to do it all over again, I would have been prepared for a rainy wedding day, and made up a little spot for us to get married with some christmas lights strung up, etc. This is a great spot to have a DIY beach wedding, and I highly recommend it! You may have some trouble getting through when you call them (they aren't the most responsive). Be persistent; it's worth it!

Any more than 80 guests and I don't think it will work for you. The cost was very reasonable. You have to throw in an extra $200 to have a guy set up and then take down their tables and chairs. Also, you have to clear the place of all your garbage yourself which can make the end of the event a little hairy. Our friends were great and they helped with everything. I remember seeing my old roommate hauling a big bag of garbage to a dumpster on his walk back to the nearby hotels, which is another plus of this location. Another huge benefit is they have a sound system you can hook an iPod or computer into and that's your DJ. Plus, they don't make food. So you have to get an off-site place to cater. Anyone who's read Bridal Bargains knows that's good for your wallet. We went with Island Grill in Ocean City and I have reviewed their performance on Yelp. Overall, I am very happy my wife wanted to get married here. She made a great call.
