East Wind Long Island

prise. The setup was executed perfectly specific to our vision. We hosted our wedding in the Veranda ballroom which was just recently renovated to feel so fresh and bright and modern. Perfect size for 135 +/- guests. Loved the layout of the room. Grounds were beautiful and pristine. Our Maître D - Read was phenomenal, very polite and professional. The Bridal Attendant was great, good vibes and super willing to tend to my every need. Our guests are still talking about how beautiful everything was. Even my most discerning family, friends and colleagues were highly impressed. The East Wind staff worked well with my vendors which were picked from their preferred vendors package. Ask for the enhancements menu before finalizing the food and beverage options. Anything is possible for your perfect wedding at East Wind.

ly flawless. Joe in sales was so helpful throughout the booking process—he answered all of our questions, made us feel at ease, and got everything set up perfectly from the start. On the day of, Reed, our maitre d’, was phenomenal. He kept everything running smoothly with such professionalism and calm. Barbara, our wedding attendant, was a true gem—so attentive, thoughtful, and kind. She made sure we were taken care of every step of the way. We also want to give a special thank you to the amazing woman at the front desk. Her warmth and friendliness made such a difference every time we walked by. The venue is absolutely stunning, and our guests are still raving about the food, service, and overall experience. East Wind brought our vision to life and gave us a day we’ll never forget. If you’re considering getting married here—do it. You won’t regret it.

hole process. Very sweet, pleasant, communicative, prompt and was reliable regarding concerns I have. Come til the wedding, it was perfect. Reid, the maitre d, took over and made everything seamless. Very mellow guy. Patient, sweet, chill and very attentive to our needs. Our wedding party loved him! And Barbara, our bridal attendant, what a doll! Very nurturing almost. She was very lowkey but whatever I asked help for, it was magically done right away. Honestly, all the staff had been awesome to us, including the bartenders, the waiters. It was perfect, none that gave us a headache at all. And the food. Our guests couldn't stop raving about it. It was delicious and never ending. I wanted to attend to any wedding at East Wind just to have a great dinner and experience everything again. Thankful for this bunch! ❤️❤️ Most definitely will recommend!

staff. Also, a big shout out to the Banquet Manager Nicole McGregor. She was great from start to finish. And she even showed up at the event to check in on everything. Everyone just completely catered to all of our needs.

eeded. He responded quickly to all of our questions, making the entire process stress-free. Our wedding day was perfect. Our Maitre D, Reid, was AMAZING—he was incredibly attentive to my husband, me, and all our guests throughout the entire day. The vineyard was stunning, the food was delicious, and the service was phenomenal. We couldn’t have imagined a more perfect wedding day! Thank you so much, EastWind!

ncredible. Every time I turned around they were with a helping hand ! Every detail was amazing just how we envisioned it to be ! Thank you Thank you and Thank you again 😘😘

r was amazing. She was available to me for every question I had within the hour. My maître de Tony and my bridal attendant Tara and Alyssa were all absolutely incredible. Stressful as a wedding can be the three of them were just so calming. They absolutely made me feel stress free. There was never a time my glass was empty and there was never a time I felt lost and not knowing what to do. They were right there by my side, making it as easy as possible with even some laughs to help us loosen up and I absolutely adore them for that! My mom, my 3 girls and myself stayed in the hotel the night before my wedding and it was absolutely wonderful The hotel is beautiful. The ceremony space is beautiful. The reception room is beautiful and I have got nothing but compliments on how beautiful the whole night was. AND extra points for letting our dog come to the ceremony!!

atement. That being said, East Wind was nothing but a miracle. We worked with Jennifer and Rob and the entire staff at East Wind was so accommodating, helpful and overall a happy, energetic bunch. They always made you feel like family when you were there. The property is breathtaking! We we had our first look at the front round about, ceremony in the outdoor chapel, and cocktail/reception in the Veranda Room. Tony (Maitre 'D), Tara (Bridal Attend), and Joey (Captain) went above and beyond the entire day to make everything perfect.

ork with and very knowledgable in guiding us throughout the whole process. Our ceremony was supposed to be outside, however weather did not permit this to happen so we had our ceremony in the space downstairs which was all done up and just as gorgeous as the outside ceremony space! We were in the Veranda room which was absolutely stunning! Our guests are still raving about the space and delicious food! There are not enough good things I can say about this incredible spot! The all inclusive package made everything so worth it and gave us plenty of options! We are so thankful to all the staff at East Wind for our incredible time there! We want to relive it over and over again!

eeted us with her amazing smile and extremely outgoing personality. She felt like family (and quickly became part of it). She listened to what we wanted, learned about us & never ever pushed us one way or another. She came back with options that she felt worked for us. We quickly decided this was the place for us. We didn’t want a long engagement & we signed our contract to have our wedding in the Northampton Ballroom on 11.11.22 for our wedding on 11.11.23. We felt the price was affordable and we were getting SO much for our money. Jennifer is a GREAT communicator, too great if you ask me. I would have to yell at her for answering my emails on her days off. When we were reaching our final appointment I was starting to get frazzled. I was emailing Jenn on different email chains with different questions. Even though she says I didn’t drive her crazy, I know I did. I will forever be grateful for her help in bringing our vision of a perfect day to life. There are always hiccups, however, Jennifer took any troubles we were having, assured us they would be taken care of by her personally, and they were. We never felt that we were on our own. We met our Maitre D’ Scott at our final appointment. He listened to our vision for the day, worked with us to ensure it would all be executed FLAWLESSLY & he came through. All the planning and little details were getting us too frazzled. We communicated best we could & just let go. We let Scott work his magic, & he made it one thousand times better than we could ever imagined. We both cried seeing the room for the first time. Desmond’s - To make things even easier for us (annoying right?) they has an on site restaurant that we decided to have our rehearsal dinner in the night before. We worked with Rob. He helped us pick the menu that worked best for us. We weren’t rushed, & they let us enjoy ourselves. We invited our families for brunch the morning after the wedding & we had a great time. We stayed from basically open to close of the buffet, & just reminisced about the night before. Which EVERYONE loved. We both decided to stay in the inn the night before the wedding. We wanted to keep tradition and not see or even speak to each other the day of the wedding. Lauren made sure we were on separate floors, & in areas we wouldn’t run in to each other. All of our guests who stayed in the inn raved about their rooms & loved the accommodations. They only let you book 10 rooms within a block, which wasn’t ideal for us. We understood we picked a popular day, & there were other weddings going on in other rooms, which had NO impact on us, by the way. Fab, or bridal attendant is amazing. She ALWAYS made sure we had a drink in our hand, & made sure we were staying hydrated too. My wife had 35 bustles on her dress. As our guests enjoyed cocktail hour, she worked on this dress while my wife and I enjoyed the food they brought to our bridal suite. Fab still made sure we were able to get to the cocktail hour and see our guests. The family we have made here will always have a special place in our hearts. We will always be grateful for how they made us feel & the love they showered us with. Jennifer, let’s get planning on the baby showers, christenings, & vow renewals ASAP!

sed for our cake OMG!! Everyone was so sweet and amazing, I can not recommend East Wind more!! Nicole McGregor was our event manager and she is so full of life and so sweet and helpful!! THE BEST!!

to perfection, satisfying every palate. The exceptional staff (Shout out to Jennifer, Tony, and Tara) played a pivotal role in making our day the best it could be. From start to finish, this venue proved to be the ideal choice for a memorable and seamless wedding. Highly recommend for a truly special celebration!

Digital version of photos ($250) Centerpieces past 10 ($35 per) Flowers Ceremony ($1600) Ceremony and cocktail hour music + MC ($900) Golf cart use Getting ready at venue ($250 per 1/2 hour) Tips ($1,175 + vendors) The venue tour is full of lies: They say you can use the golf cart to take carousel pics, but they wouldn't let us use it) They say the provided flowers can be removed but they won't let you take them down. Digital versions of photos are NOT included in package Moving on...They closed their bakery 1 month before the wedding and offered to switch my order to another bakery. No tasting and EW would not provide an order confirmation. I had to call the bakery myself in order to make sure the order was correct...AND THEY STILL MESSED IT UP. The cake was made the wrong flavor. This is exactly why I was uncomfortable going with a bakery I hadn't used before, I bought my engagement party cake from EW's bakery so I would know what I was getting and EW ruined that. AND the sales team tried to lie and say the bakery chose to close, but someone at the bakery told me EW shut them down. We were told 10-12 people per table for the reception at our original meeting, then 8-10, then 8-12. Ended up being 9-12! When we paid in full our receipt was accompanied by an envelope stating we were EXPECTED to tip them $1,175 (not in our contract). One week later they leave a voicemail stating that they messed up the final bill and will just run my credit card for the remaining amount since I didn't answer the phone. When I called back they had already charged my card for over $800 and were only willing to cancel the charge if I brought them the amount in cash within the next few days. I show up to the rehearsal to discover the venue is still decorated from the last wedding. I inquire and discover that they changed their permanent outdoor display to a hideous array of CLEARLY FAKE flowers (see photo). I start crying because my vision of my wedding is ruined (I handmade all of my florals) and the Maitre'd says something to the affect of "are you done, I'm trying to run a rehearsal." Scott promises maintenance will remove the flowers by 7am the next day (day of wedding), we arrive around 9am and my father-in-law has to take them down himself and replace them with our decorations just hours before the ceremony because EW won't (also tried to tell him he wasn't allowed to take them down). Back to the rehearsal...after the fiasco outside, we go in to set up the reception space. The Maitre'd abandons us, leaving me, an already distraught bride to discover they are short on tables. My mother actually had to go downstairs and tell him to go up and help us. Then during the wedding the MC forgets to announce one of the groomsmen and they can't make the signature drink (which was ordered 3 months prior) because they don't have Blue Curacao (they didn't even tell me, I found out from a guest). Finally, the morning after the wedding we were rudely awoken around 8am by an EW management pounding on the door to kick us out of the hotel. A shitty end to shitty service!

ger, was such a pleasure to work with and she made wedding planning so easy. Tara and Reid made sure the night went smoothly, if you’re thinking about having your wedding at East Wind, know you’re in good hands.
