What couples say again and again
“We had a beautiful (small, socially distant) ceremony and an authentic Cape Cod Clam bake under the most beautiful New England sky you could ever hope for.”
“Whether it was recommending local vendors and pastors or helping us navigate a last-minute rain forecast on our wedding day, Tom consistently went above and beyond.”
“The rooms were very nice and clean, the hospitality was exceptional, the food was great and the private beach was a huge hit.”
From the reviews
This review is long overdue; I mistakenly thought I had already posted one! My husband and I were married here last June, and we truly cannot say enough wonderful things about this hotel and its manager, Tom. From our very first conversation, Tom was exceptionally kind, welcoming, and resourceful.
Erin and Alexa along with the staff were the dream team to make ours and all our families stay perfect for our wedding weekend. Additionally, it was great to see the owner’s and family’s love and care for their business and all of them were warm and welcoming.
The staff was exceptionally helpful, considerate and thoughtful. We have stayed there every year for the past six and we love the place. Last Summer we asked if we could get married on their beach and we started to think about the possibility of a July 2020 wedding.
By The Sea Guests B&B accommodated our room block for our wedding at The Sea View. We took also took over The English Garden and had rooms at The Sea Shell Motel. It was great to have our guests so close together and so close to the beach! The staff was so helpful and accommodating through the whole wedding weekend!
Getting married at By The Sea Guests
By The Sea Guests comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
Corporate events & private parties at By The Sea Guests
Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at By The Sea Guests — garden venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
