Venues near Atlantic City...

in New Jersey - South
Okay.. so my parents are actively looking for a reception place... and its not going well... 
- We have looked at Blue Heron Pines... they didnt like the look of it.  Loved the menu though. 
- Harbor Pines they heard has bad food but they liked the look of it. 
- Linwood Country club is booked on our date already.
- Seaview wont put us in the main ballroom cause we only have around 150people.. so my parents dont want to go there now. 

I'm going to look at mayslanding Country club today after work... but i hear its old and just ok with the food.. so i'm prob not gonna like it. 

I'm asking for any recommendations for a reception place with good food and somewhat modern looking... no more than 25mins from the Atlantic City area???

    The carriage house is nice, definitely check them out.

    Do you not want to be in the city?  If it doesnt matter, we're getting married at the sheraton in ac, which their food is fantastic and I LOVE the coordinator we got assigned.  Actually, everyone has been fantastic!

    we also looked at the chelsea, which has a really cool retro vibe.  you can also try atlantic city country club, which i've heard mixed things about.

    I agree with Carriage House and Ram's Head.

    You can try the Sugar Hill Inn (Mays Landing), Inlet (Somers Point), Tomasello Winery (Hammonton) and One Atlantic (Caesars AC).

    Well we are having our reception in the Bayview Ballroom at Seaview, and I actually like it better than the Presidential Ballroom...It is kinda set off all by itself...Just my opinion...I wouldnt have chosen Seaview if I had to have it in the Presidential Ballroom...its in the middle of everything..


    Rams Head Inn is beautiful also...


    Good luck!

    Just an FYI on Rams Head, they have a good reputation but they've had major changes in management in the last couple years and I'm not sure it's really the same quality it used to be.  (My fiance used to be the private dining manager there, so that's just our opinion)... I also don't know that I would consider it modern at all.

    My brother just had his wedding at Greate Bay country club in Somers Point.  The food was really good and it was really nice if you like the country club/ golf course feel

    Thanks everyone for suggestions... so we have been looking around and calling these places you suggested...

    carriage house - booked already on my date
    linwood country club - booked already

    i went to atlantic city country club... last week the date is still open... but i have mixed feelings about going there... dunno why...

    We called Sheraton... they are sending us info... what type of food has everyone had there?

    Rams head inn.. might be too small for 150 people... dunno...

    I drove down to see Sand Barren country club... it was cute... looked kinda small though... any been there for a wedding for 150 people?

    I'm kinda nervous now... all my top choices are already booked...  any suggestions?
