The Reeds At Shelter Haven 

5.0

Stone Harbor, NJ
  • Starts at $10,500

The Reeds' casual elegance and coastal chic design combine in perfect harmony with the natural surroundings to create a backdrop that is truly one-of-a-kind. Designed by a team of wedding professionals, The Reeds offers the most exclusive seaside wedding destination at the southern New Jersey shore.

“From our initial site visit until we said goodbye to The Reeds team a few days after our wedding, everything was simply wonderful. Liz was so welcoming at our walk-through and she showed us all of the various spaces we could utilize for our wedding and wedding weekend events. The menus and pricing provided were clear and easy to understand. I loved The Reeds before even touring, but once we were able to really see the spaces in person, I knew this was the place for our wedding. We wanted a place where we could do everything on-site and get a chance to spend the whole weekend with our guests in one location and this was definitely the spot for us! Once we booked, Liz was always available to answer any questions as they came up. As we got closer to our wedding date, we were connected with the person who would be our main contact for the detailed planning and on the day of our wedding, Ceandra. Ceandra was so sweet and easy to work with the entire time. Ceandra and Liz both attended our details meeting and we were able to discuss all of our plans, decide on our menu, ask questions, and plan for the big day. We did things a bit out of order because of our schedules and attended the tasting after the planning meeting, but that did not stop us from enjoying everything that was offered. The tasting had such a wide variety of the menu options and allowed us to get a sense of the quality of food and beverages offered. It was just amazing how much food was offered and how good everything was!! It also allowed us to see the wedding team in action. Following the tasting, the time to the wedding moved pretty quickly for us and Ceandra was in contact as often as needed and helped with all of the final details. I cannot even begin to explain how perfect our wedding weekend was. Ceandra and every team member at The Reeds made sure that everything went smoothly and according to plan during our entire stay. We met Ceandra for our drop off and did a final review of all the plans for the day. The next day, we had our rehearsal on-site, followed by our Rehearsal Dinner on the Roof Garden. The morning of the wedding, we used our space in the Skye Suite (which was SPECTACULAR) for getting hair and make-up done. We utilized various spaces on-site for our first look, bridal party, and family photos and even took a quick trip to the beach in one of their golf carts for beach photos. The outdoor ceremony site at The Reeds provided a gorgeous backdrop of our wedding ceremony and then from there, we partied all night long! The cocktail our on the patio allowed so much space for guests to mingle and enjoy time together, and the views could not be beat. Once the reception began, everything stayed on track with the timeline and the team continued to check in with us as the evening progressed. Throughout the entire evening, guests were coming up to us telling us this was the best wedding they had ever attended!! I'm still hearing from family and friends that the bartenders and wait staff were the best they had ever encountered at a weeding. We did not want the wedding to end and were thankful that we planned the After Party at the Crew Room in the Stone Harbor Pizza Pub. It was the perfect way to keep the party going and spend more time with our guests. For our final event, we were back to the Roof Garden for the post-wedding breakfast and everyone had a chance to relive the fun from the night before and say their goodbyes. Everything was perfect!!”
