Weddings & Functions
Nantucket is the perfect place for a wedding or vow renewal if you love pristine beaches, historic architecture, world class amenities, and small town charm. Even though the island is 30 miles out to sea, we have all of the necessary elements to orchestrate your dream wedding.
The Nantucket Chamber of Commerce has a couple of printed brochures that would be very useful when it comes to planning your event and assisting your guests in getting the most out of their trip to the island to celebrate with you. You could start by sending your guests the Chamber’s Travel & Lodging brochure when you mail the “Save the Date” announcements. The Nantucket Chamber of Commerce official guidebook provides a comprehensive reference for all things Nantucket and is ideal for distributing to your family and friends when they arrive on island.
There are an impressive array of venues available to you for your special event that range from the most traditional to the unusual. It is possible to reserve a world class hotel and ballroom or to take advantage of the natural beauty of the beach. The staff at the Chamber of Commerce are always available to answer questions about venues and the pages that follow in this guide are a great place to start your research. If you are looking for a religious ceremony Nantucket is home to many different churches and a synagogue which you should contact directly. You could also consider having your wedding at one of the Nantucket Historical Association properties whose information you can also find in this guidebook.
You may want a private chef, a professional photographer, or a comprehensive event planner for your special occasion. We have all of these services and more. Nantucket’s seclusion, as well as its pristine natural beauty and vibrant living history, make it an ideal venue for successful meetings and corporate retreats. Many diverse groups travel here to experience this unique ambiance which fosters creativity and a true sense of relaxation and retreat.
