Cape May Wedding Reviews

Experience the perfect backdrop to celebrate your love and share your happiness with your guests at The Southern Mansion, one of the most enchanting Cape May wedding venues! Discover what past couples have said about their special day.

Beautiful Venue The Southern Mansion was so beautiful. I fell in love with the mansion as soon as I saw it. We had our wedding mid-may and the weather was perfect. The well manicured grounds of the mansion and the weather was astounding. The most beautiful part of the mansion is the Wedding Coordinator, Alyssa. As soon as a met her I knew I wanted to work with her. She listened and helped my dreams come alive. She was the calm I needed right before I walked down the isle. She was at the top of the steps and then leaping through bushes to help me with my veil at the bottom of the staircase. All done with grace and class. The smile she gave me after fixing my dress completely calmed me. I highly recommend the Southern Mansion for the not only the beauty of the mansion, but also because you will get to work with an amazing person.

Amazing Wedding The Southern Mansion is hands down the best wedding venue in Cape May. Ken and his team were amazing to work with and made sure our day was everything we wanted and more. The food was delicious, the staff was friendly and accommodating, and the venue itself is just stunning. We highly recommend The Southern Mansion to anyone looking for a truly magical wedding experience.

100% Recommend The Southern Mansion! We are so glad we decided to go with the Southern Mansion for our big day. The venue is absolutely stunning, so they can accommodate both weddings with intricate decor and minimalistic weddings. They conveniently have a list of vendors they are used to working with so that you don't have to go hunting for bakers, alcohol vendors, etc. yourself. It's also nice that the venue has a gorgeous bride and groom suite and 23 other rooms that the couple and their close family/guests can stay in after the reception is over. Super convenient when everyone is tired at the end of the night. They also give guests freshly-made, personalized/to-order omelets and breakfast the morning of the wedding and the day after right before you checkout. Their breakfast was absolutely DELICIOUS. Would 100% recommend. The venue provides linens, plates, silverware, glassware, napkins, water, and the food/catering. The bride and groom handle the cake, alcohol/drink mixers, DJ/Band, Photo/Video, and any decor/flowers. The alcohol vendor that they work with delivers the alcohol to the mansion the afternoon of the wedding and picks up any extra alcohol the next day. Any cases or wine/liquor bottles that are unopened get refunded to the bride and groom, so that is really nice. One of the best parts about having our wedding at the mansion was working with the Wedding Consultant/Manager, Ken Stefanide. He was a pleasure to be around and always had good energy. He's really good at socializing with the families of the bride and groom and makes sure that everyone feels welcome. Our parents loved Ken and really enjoyed his infectious personality. Ken is also very flexible and caters to the specific needs of each couple. If there is something particular you want done or if you have an unusual request, Ken is good at finding solutions and getting the information you need. The staff is very attentive and were on top of everything the day of the wedding. Everything went smoothly, and I was very relieved that I could just focus on getting myself (the bride) ready the morning of my wedding. Granted, my mother and friends handled a lot of the logistics the day of, so just make sure you have a solid bridal party and allocate work accordingly. Or you can hire a wedding planner just for the day of the wedding to give you a helping hand.

Magical Wedding! The venue was beyond anything we could have imagined. With 24 rooms, most of our family stayed at the venue. The staff was incredibly helpful and the price was very reasonable. We had the cocktail hour outside, dinner in the solarium and the party in the basement speakeasy! It was MAGICAL. I would recommend the Southern Mansion to anyone! It will be a special place for us for the rest of our lives.

Willow Creek Winery Wedding Our wedding was at Willow Creek Winery and the Southern Mansion is the caterer for the venue. At our wedding we had 5 passed horderves and 2 stations that we were able to choose from. Then at dinner we had a beef, chicken, and vegetarian option for our guests. The food was AMAZING. My husband and I both had the top sirloin and it was cooked perfectly, and we’ve had several guests tell us how good the food was!
