Oceanview of Nahant has some of the best ocean views around. Couples can have their ceremony outside with the water as the backdrop, enjoy cocktail hour and plenty of deck space when the weather is nice, and then move inside for the reception. The ballroom has been completely updated and feels fresh, and there’s also a really cool bar area that keeps guests connected to the room.

I’m almost always set up on the small stage, which gives me a great position overlooking the dance floor and makes it easy to stay connected to the room throughout the night. One of the coolest things about Oceanview is how much the waterfront stays part of the experience from the ceremony through the reception. Some couples even finish with a last dance outside under the lights with the ocean behind them, which can be a really memorable way to end the night.
