Had one of the greatest times of our lives staying at the Grace River Island Resort for our November Wedding! We booked for November 22nd - 25th and from the moment we arrive we were in awe of how breath taking the location was, just like the first time we saw it a year prior. Mike, Karen, and Skye were very attentive to our questions and needs, and everything was ready for us upon our arrival. All the amenities they provided were clean and fresh, ready for us to use, shout out to the cleaning crew! There was plenty of room for our wedding party of 20, and we spent four amazing days making wonderful memories with our family and friends. The sunsets here were truly magical, as we would often gather at the dock to take in the view and spend most of the nights cozy around the firepit. On the day of the wedding, their team helped set up tables, worked alongside the vendors, and were extremely professional throughout the day. I'll be forever grateful that Skye came out with a tray of food for me and my husband, thanks to her we could actually taste all of our catering menu while we were in the process of taking photos and videos! The hospitality that was shown to us by the Grace River Island team was impeccable and they truly made our stay there one we shall never forget. Thank you so much Grace River Island!!! - With Love Gabriella & Gelson

We were so lucky with weather and the sunset, the night was absolutely amazing! Our wedding date was November 12. We had the ceremony on the beach and then the reception was under the pavilion. We decorated mainly with string lights and the vibe was everything I wanted for an island beach wedding. Molly helped us plan and Jess was our day of coordinator, both did an excellent job. Nothing major went wrong and Jess helped keep everything on track. The only real downside was the guests have to use the bathrooms that are inside the restaurant.

The park is absolutely beautiful, well-maintained and incredibly quiet.

I cannot thank you enough for making our wedding reception so very special. I know every bride has wonderful things to say about her vendors, but Bridge Street Bistro is more than just a beautiful setting with fantastic food (even though that would’ve been enough). From the very beginning, Jennifer was available, courteous, and flexible. Our wedding was initially planned for March 23rd, the start of COVID. We were determined to make it and waited til last minute to postpone. She was so kind throughout the process and I’ll never forget her saying “Even it your guests can’t make it, we will make sure the two of you have a very special dinner.” That meant so much to me as I was a nervous wreck! It was clear she meant every word. Just a few highlights: As we were planning, we asked for a plate of oysters to ourselves in case they all ran out while we were taking pictures. I had sort of forgotten about this. When my tired bride self walked into the reception, the first thing I saw was the BEAUTIFUL cheese/fruit plate on our table, with a pile of ahi tuna (and a gorgeous three color sauce, very well plated). Shrimp, oysters, and mussels were then brought to us. They went far above and beyond with this beautiful display and it was delicious. Honestly the tuna was the best I’ve ever had. Chef Ryan, Anthony, and Sydney, were around all night. They not only provided excellent service but were AWESOME to talk to. They helped keep the environment upbeat and fun. It is clear the staff takes pride in their work and that makes all the difference. Even the kitchen staff said hello and were clearly excited to be part of the fun. Everyone raved about the food. It ain’t your typical chicken and potatoes wedding food, that’s for sure. The entrees looked amazing!! I was so full from my seafood and cheese that I couldn’t eat another bite, but they boxed up my entree for me and even the leftover cheese! Many of the places I looked at had strict no leftover policies, and knowing that I could take my wedding food home to try it made the night even better. Thank you, thank you, thank you, for making our day so special. Everyone knows the reception is the best part and it absolutely was. I hope I didn’t mess up any names or forget anyone. Y’all are the best!!! Five years later, this was still one of the best nights of my whole life. Guests still tell me how special our reception was (and how great the food was). I'd do it all again in a heartbeat!
