We worked with Lou from Chateau La Mer. He was nice but not incredibly "bride friendly" especially during those stressful times. He jokes a lot and when you need a sensitive ear, he does not help. However, his assistant Tracy is an angel--thank God for her:). He also does not use email, which is very annoying. But Lou did his best. They work as a good team. All in all we were happy with our Chateau La Mer. I really wanted to be on the water and you really can't beat the views and the beauty at Chateau. I was slightly disappointed by their time management the day of our wedding. We felt rushed to do everything. Rushed to get to the boat, rushed to do cake, etc. I wish they would have kept us on track more. We were 1/2 hour late being announced to our reception. That is 1/2 hr of dance time! The food is unbelievable, from what I can remember. My bridal attendant saved the night on several occasions. If you book at Chateau, ask for Laura. She is a Saint!!! And I am so grateful for her.

Where do I begin. The staff at Chateau La Mer was a pleasure to work with. They answered all questions and returned phone calls immediately. The venue was gorgeous. A definite for someone who wants the beach feel but can't do it. I felt like I was on an island with the palm trees. The food was amazing!!! I would definitely recommend them. You won't regret it!!
Chateau la Mer helped me to run a great wedding reception. Although there were a few bumps throughout the night, their staff was very attentive to me and my guests and provided us all with a great service. The service was great, but the food was also delicious!
There are only two words to describe our wedding at Chateau La Mer as well as the extraordinary treatment from all of the staff: Absolute Perfection!! What girl does not dream of a fairy-tale wedding, with a beautiful water view on a gorgeous day at a magnificent venue? I sure did. Initially what led me to Chateau La Mer was of course the beauty of it. Sitting on a quiet street with a breathtaking view, it was quite the sight to be seen. The next thing that impressed me was the amount of food included in their price; which was spoken about for hours and hours by our guests. Not only is the quantity of food incredible, but the quality of food is out of this world. Guest upon guest would come up to my husband and I on our big day, saying "Oh my goodness! There is so much food!! AND it's delicious!!" Compliment after compliment came from one friend or family member to another. "Gorgeous", "breathtaking", "delicious", and "Intoxicating" (no pun intended) - were among the compliments we received. Robert Drago - our Maitre' D was out of this world!! Step by step, moment by moment, he was constantly calming any worries or concerns I had [and trust me, I am most a definitely a worry-wart]. Fortunately for me, Rob was my first-contact at Chateau La Mer. From the moment I met him, he assured me "Christina, this day is about you and your husband. I'm here to make your dreams come to life" and he absolutely did, beyond anything I could have ever imagined. I've been to big fancy venues with stiff staff who merely does what's necessary. Throughout the entire process from beginning to end, Rob was there. He truly went above and beyond his job duties. He knows the difference between business and personality and trust me when I say- there was a lot of personality at our wedding. In every specific and detailed aspect of the wedding from financial questions, to decor issues, to concern of certain guests and my desperate need for red-bull after such a long day- Rob was there.
