LOVE NOTES FROM OUR COUPLES

  • Jessie & Alex, married October 4, 2024

    "My husband and I fell in love with Saltwater Farm Vineyard as our venue the first time we went there together before we were even engaged. Oddly enough I had already been to the venue when I was in my cousin’s wedding here 6 years ago, but when Alex and I went to Saltwater Farm Vineyard for an oyster shucking class we had an awesome experience that cemented it as a part of our own journey. We chatted with Jess and Greg, and the owners Michael and Merrily for hours after the event. The day after we got engaged we went to Saltwater Farm Vineyard to celebrate and booked it as our venue the next day.

    The space is absolutely gorgeous. I love how intimate the venue feels while also having enough room for all of our guests. The flow of the events at Saltwater is seamless based on the layout. We had the ceremony in the vineyard, the cocktail hour outside/under the tent, and the reception inside. We were able to fit all 124 of our guests on the first floor, but we opened the second floor bar to open up the space even more. My two favorite things about the venue are the space itself and the natural ambiance. The space makes everything feel together, if you’re upstairs you can still see and hear the dance floor below, if you’re outside under the tent for fresh air or cigars you can still see and hear the dance floor as well. It’s all so connected keeping all of the guests having a similar experience.

    Additionally, the ambiance is amazing. I described my wedding style as simple but elegant. The lighting in the venue is so unique and is captured beautifully in photos whether the overhead lights are on or off. I also loved getting ready in the bridal suite on site so that I did not have to be transported after I got ready. The space has such incredible natural light which is great for getting ready photos. We also used the bridal suite for the wedding party to wait in while our guests were seated. It was so fun to watch our guests arrive and fill up all of the seats in the vineyard. It was a special moment watching all of our planning come to life.

    Merrily is very quick to respond and answer any of your questions. Jess and Greg are not only the nicest people and most helpful people, but they also made visiting the venue feel like we were coming home. Very honestly, the first moment I cried at my wedding was when I waved to Jess and Greg before going into the vineyard for my first look. It felt like everything had come full circle since the oyster shucking class all those months ago. I absolutely loved this venue and cannot speak highly enough about it. I cannot wait to go back and visit again. If you choose Saltwater Farm Vineyard for your wedding venue, you will not be disappointed!"

    “Dear Merrily, Michael & the Saltwater Farm Team,

    Thank you for making our wedding day an absolute DREAM! It was a pleasure working with you over the past year to make our day happy. From chatting with Merrily about the space, getting a warm greeting from Greg every time we visited the venue, and the impeccable service on our Big Day, we and our guests truly appreciated the care you all had for our event and experience. We knew when we booked that the venue was beautiful, but the true beauty lies in your all and the incredible vendors you work with.

    Our sincerest thanks!”

    “Hello SFV Team! 

    Aaron and I wanted to extend our immense gratitude for all you have done to help us have the most beautiful wedding day. From start to finish, it was the most spectacular day and we both find ourselves wishing it never had to end. 

    Aaron brought me to Saltwater for our first date. It was a beautiful day. I remember sitting at a barrel drinking cab franc/ merlot blend and thinking what a beautiful vineyard it was. Fast forward almost two years later and he proposed to me in the vines on a warm September day. Being able to get married there was truly an amazing full circle moment and it felt so right to be able to share our marriage with you all and the vineyard that we fell in love at just a few years prior. 

    Saltwater will always have an extra special place in our hearts. We will obviously be back to visit, as often as we can. It was so magical being in love at Saltwater Farm Vineyard. 

    Thank you all again!”

    “Dear Merrily,

    Thank you very much for letting Saltwater be a part of our Big Day. Alex and I aren’t the most decisive people in the world, but when I saw Alex’s reaction when we walked in for the first time, we knew we’d be having out wedding there. I honestly can’t imagine having it anywhere else. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know everyone there, and we always look forward to stopping by and saying hi. Saltwater Farm will forever hold a special place in our hearts. We’re so happy we can continue to stop by and enjoy the memories we’ve made together at Saltwater.

    Thank you again!”

    “Dear Merrily & SFV Team,

    From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for a fantastic wedding experience. You were all so helpful and friendly, we felt so at home at Saltwater Farm and wouldn’t have wanted to get married anywhere else. It was a perfect day (and boy, were we lucky the skies cleared!). We will be sure to stop by often in the future and say hello.

    Best,
    Heather & Tony”
