Bonnet Island Estate is truly a magical place. It really does feel like it was taken straight from a little girls dream of her wedding. So many of our guests have said to us that our wedding was the BEST wedding they have ever been to. People are still flying high from the event! The staff at Bonnet is absolutely AMAZING! Ginny and Megan were both incredibly helpful with whatever we needed from the moment we signed the contract. They are both an incredible resource for vendors and are two of the nicest people you will ever meet. The guest rooms are just gorgeous! If you make the decision to have your wedding at Bonnet Island, you will not be disappointed. It is worth every penny.

I really don't even know what I can say about this place except that it was the most beautiful and perfect wedding venue a girl could ever dream of having her wedding. Every single aspect of Bonnet Island was perfect - the staff, service, the setting, the estate itself...it was beyond amazing!! I was very picky in selecting a venue because I wanted something that was simple, elegant and very homey since I don't like being the center of attention. When I found Bonnet Island, I fell in love!! Because I'm a very cost-conscientious person, I felt uneasy about the pricetag that was paid to rent the estate for my wedding, but let me tell you, every single penny you pay for this place is absolutely worth it. I still get goosebumps thinking about how wonderful this place was! I've been told time and time again that this was the best wedding people have ever gone to and I'm sure it's because guests also feel a part of the magic and wonder of this place! I highly recommend this place!

Absolutely fabulous in elegance/ comfort within the estate and the staff is just the most amazing people. They are very accommodating and super friendly easing the stress of wedding planning. The food is amazing and they treat you like you are part of their family... AMAZING experience.The Gadots

We paid a pretty penny to have our reception at Bonnet Island Estate, but it was well worth it. The venue is beautiful and expansive. We had our receiving hour in the boathouse, our cocktail hour on the veranda, the main reception in the ballroom, and the after party in the great room. And because BIE hosts only one wedding at a time, you and your guests feel like you're on a weekend getaway instead of those cookie cutter weddings that everyone's been to before.

Loved Bonnet Island Estate - it was the PERFECT venue to have our wedding. The service was fantastic and Laura from Merri Makers was always available to meet with us or answer questions. We received many, many compliments from our guests that it was the best wedding they had ever been to. I would highly recommend renting the estate for the night, it was so nice to get ready there and flow right into the after-party. The only issue we had was that we kept finding the door to the bridal room downstairs open... and sometimes guests in there as the estate lends itself to people "exploring" the different rooms. We had many valuables in the room - I would recommend that you ask for this room to be locked and for a key to the room. Everything else was top notch.

Bonnet Island was the most gorgeous place to have our wedding. It was so wonderful to have all of the wedding pieces held in one place and be able to have it all night long. They were beyond professional and wanted to make sure our wedding day would be stress free and very upscale. The price is high, but if you can afford it, it will be something you and your guests will never forget.
