We stopped in the Ocean City Yacht club for a wedding over the weekend. While I didn't see any yachts on the dock, it was definitely a nice spot to have a wedding. With large plate glass windows on the west side of the room, the room has a fantastic view across the bay. As for the food, I'm not sure if they brought an outside caterer or used in house but it was pretty good as well. Looked like parking was iffy but there was plenty of parking in the neighborhood. Good times.

Wow. I recently attended a wedding reception here and while I really wanted to like this place the experience was ruined by interactions with the head chef and maitre de both of which were generally unhelpful and the head chef was plain rude and appeared to have a chip on his shoulder. Unfortunately the layout of the venue wasn't suitable for a wedding reception either as there is not enough room to separate a cocktail hour from the dining room. As a result some guests were seated at their dining tables while others were cramped into a tight separate bar-room area. Lastly the food was comparable to a Boston Market. Our dinner consisted of salty and powdery mashed potatoes, a few strands of string beans, a slice of carrot, and an uninspired piece of breaded chicken ((yawn)).

Picture this a warm summer day for a beach wedding and we arrive at the place and the air conditioner is not on, or maybe it had been turned on as we arrived. Ceiling fans were barely moving around and everyone literally was sweating. We were told they did not know where the controls were, really! Number of guests was 170 and they were packed into two rooms. I do not know how they could accommodate up to 200+ guests, ridiculous. There were not enough tables and chairs for all the guests, and it was a sit-down dinner. Appetizers were not replenished until the last morsel of food had been taken from the serving platters. Guests being kind did not want to take the last piece so it took some time to have stations replenished. Ran out of forks so guests were directed to sit at their seats to eat their appetizers and use the fork from their place setting. The initial contract was signed with the original caterer whom had wonderful reviews and once the contract was signed the caterer and additional caterers quit OCYC due to issues. Greate Bay was the last of the caterers and they were also a part of the total chaos. It really should not be this hard when you are paying so much money for such a special event.

Ocean City Yacht Club Wedding Pamela and Graham

Back to top.

I remember a couple of weeks before their wedding day, Pamela asked me what would happen with their photos if it rained on their wedding day. While we hope it won’t rain on our couples’ wedding day, the weather is always a gamble, but one thing is certain: we will always work hard to get beautiful photos, no matter what the weather!

On Pam and Graham’s wedding, it started to rain during their ceremony but then the rain turned to a slight drizzle and our couple was on board for getting photos on the beach in spite of the weather so of course we jumped on the opportunity! The photos of them on the windy beach turned out so romantic and genuine!

With navy and white details, this coastal-inspired wedding came together beautifully. When I asked Graham and Pamela why they picked Ocean City Yacht Club for their wedding day, they told me it was because it was in OC – somewhere they love to go and just enjoy life. It’s a super welcoming venue and was the vibe they wanted for their whole day. Check it out in some of my favorite images below!

Congratulations, Pam and Graham! Thank you for allowing us to capture your beautiful wedding and best wishes for a life full of health, joy, and love!
