Jeff, Ronda, Alexa, Mike and all Windrift staff went ABOVE AND BEYOND to make our wedding and weekend absolutely perfect. We are so pleased and grateful for everything !

We used the Windrift Hotel for our rehearsal dinner and also stayed in one of their larger suites for our wedding night. The event coordinator was incredibly responsive as we worked to plan our rehearsal dinner, and the staff at our dinner were very attentive. The food was delicious! The suite was also perfect both for the bride and bridesmaid to get ready the morning of and was also a relaxing evening after our perfect wedding day!

My husband and I were married at the Windrift last month and we could not have asked for a better experience. After we got engaged we were on the hunt for a location that had everything we wanted; we knew for sure we didn’t want the typical ballroom venue, we wanted something more fun, unique, and “us,” where our guests could party and celebrate all night and not worry about a thing. Windrift hit all those points! From the moment we meet with Jeff and toured the venue we were in awe; we loved the idea of our ceremony on site and flowing right into our cocktail hour, the wine and cheese boards were something we’ve never seen done before, the 2nd floor reception area was so beautiful and the 2 big bars would be a crowd pleaser, and our guests would be able to stay on site & enjoy an after party downstairs! Jeff, Ronda, and Alexa were all wonderful to work with throughout our planning and the weekend of. We never felt slighted or that we weren’t a priority, they were always quic...

The entire weekend was a dream come true, everything came together perfectly and we have the amazing staff at Windrift to thank. We cannot wait to come back for many future visits and cannot recommend this venue enough!

My husband and I were planning to get on a plane and have a destination wedding, until we met with Jeff and saw the Windrift Resort! We were so thrilled with our choice of venue! Jeff is so professional and laid back to deal with. I don’t know how he does it but you end up feeling like you are the only wedding he is planning for the year. He is so quick to respond and so patient with questions and concerns and last minute changes! Ronda meticulously takes care of your reception layout, linens and meals. She helped with the flow of our cocktail and reception so that the day went on seamlessly. These two are a dream to work with and make everything SO EASY! The Windrift Resort is such a perfect wedding venue! It ended up feeling like a destination wedding but even better since all of our friends and family could more easily attend! From the second we arrived to check into the hotel everyone from the valet to the front desk could not be more kind and more professional! Mike from the... Read more hotel is so nice and super quick to respond to emails regarding guest reservations and took care of handing out our welcome bags. We had a beautiful beach ceremony right out front of the resort. Cocktail hour on the 2nd floor deck is such a gorgeous setting and the food was delicious! We loved the flow of everything and that dinner was right on the same floor as cocktail hour. Everyone has told us it was one of the best weddings and the best food they have ever had! In comparison to the couple of places in the area that we toured, the Windrift by far gives you the most options for entrées and cocktail hour! We had such a perfect day that was better than we could have imagined! If you are looking for a wedding venue that isn’t a traditional ballroom venue I 100% recommend the Windrift Resort! Thank you for such a dream come true day! Lauren & Matt

I cannot say enough about the Windrift as far as how special they made us feel for our wedding. Jeff and Ronda were so great to work with and made sure that all of our needs were met throughout the entire process. Even though they have a ton of weddings and people to deal with, they made us feel as though we were the only couple they were dealing with. Their personal touch truly made our wedding better than we ever could have imagined. Not to mention the fact that the venue itself was the perfect setting for anyone looking for a beach wedding.....and I know we are biased, but we think that after it was all said and done, the Windrift gave us the best wedding that money could buy!

Our wedding at the Windrift was more perfect than I could have ever imagined. When my mom and I first started looking at venues in South Jersey, the Windrift wasn’t on our list but we happen to be driving by and decided to stop in on a whim. Jeff, one of the wedding coordinators, was more than happy to sit down with us to discuss our wedding when we unexpectedly showed up. My mom and I knew the Windrift was the venue after that meeting. The reception room is like no other in the area and Jeff was just an absolute pleasure to talk things over with in the beginning and throughout the entire planning process. I really can’t say enough about him- from answering all of our questions, following up with us when he needed answers, confirming that our payments were received for the deposits and handling my last-minute changes during the weeks leading up to the wedding. Both Jeff and Ronda were there for the day of our wedding to make sure everything went smoothly. The food was incredible- f... Read morerom the appetizers during cocktail our through our entrees. So many of our guests told us that our wedding was the best wedding they had ever been to and the Windrift, Jeff and Ronda were a HUGE part of making sure we had the best day of our lives. I can’t thank them enough!

We could not love our wedding venue more. The views are unbelievable and everyone was amazing to work with! Jeff answered every email in a timely matter and the day went off with out an issue. People are still telling us it was the best wedding food they've had!

I attended my grandparents 50th anniversary celebration here. It was perfect! The staff was amazing, they made sure everything was running smoothly the whole time. Jeff and Ronda made sure not a single detail was missing. The view from the deck of the venue was breathtaking and the interior was nothing short of beautiful. It was like a second wedding for my grandparents and the Windrift made it even more special. The food was spectacular. By the time my family and I sat down for dinner we were all but stuffed from the delicious passed hors d'oeuvres. The main course, of chilean sea bass and filet mignon, was yet another outstanding aspect of an already perfect evening. My family and I are so thankful to the Windrift and their staff.

We got married 10/21/17 at the Windrift. We had the ceremony outside on the beach and the reception inside on Level 2. It was a beautiful day. We had the best day of our lives and it seriously was a dream come true, all with the help of Jeff Walden and Ronda Pursglove. Everything was PERFECT from the day we got engaged to the day we said "I Do." My husband worked very closely with Jeff from the day we got engaged on the beach outside of the Windrift in September 2016. Both Jeff and Ronda were so easy to work with and always available with the millions of questions and requests we had during our year of planning. They went above and beyond to accommodate EVERYTHING we wanted to make our wedding day the way we pictured it! Everyone always says something goes wrong the day of your wedding but seriously, there isn't one thing we would've changed. It was perfect from start to finish: ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and even the after party. People are still raving about how it ...

Thank you again to the Windrift, everyone who works there who helped us throughout our year of planning, and especially to Jeff and Ronda. We will be singing your praises for life!

I highly recommend the Windrift as the perfect wedding venue. Our family has always loved the Windrift as our vacation destination, but the event services went far above and beyond our expectations. I never felt any stress working closely with Rachel, and Ronda and Jeff helped our wedding day go perfectly and without any worry. I never felt stress during wedding planning as I truly felt like I had a hired team of personal wedding planners. The food, the bar service, the decor (set up perfectly and exactly how I envisioned everything) was truly beyond compare- but the service was next to none. All of our guests had nothing but the most wonderful compliments to give regarding our cocktail hour and reception. The Windrift team is the best, the hotel and view are unbeatable, and this is the perfect place for your most perfect day!!

We were married in September 2017 at the Windrift, and had a more beautiful wedding than we could have possibly imagined. We booked about 18 months in advance, and from the moment we toured the venue, Rachel became our guide, managing the details for our beach ceremony and reception. She was universally amazing from day one, went above and beyond the call of duty regularly, and helped to make the process of planning our wedding fun! Rhonda was responsible for the details for our reception on the day of, and she attended to every single detail - including sending servers with food and cocktails from our cocktail hour out to the beach while we took photos. She made helpful suggestions during the process of working out the final details, and made sure everything ran smoothly on the day of. Nick from the hotel made sure our guests (and us) were comfortable and even helped us work out a few last minute issues (including one fairly major one) quickly and without question. As ... Read morefor the day of our wedding, Rachel, Rhonda and the entire staff made it stress-free for us. They made sure that we had an unforgettable night, and that our guests did too. Our beach ceremony was beautiful, and the Windrift is set up perfectly for beach weddings - and they know how to manage every possible variable with ease. The food was simply incredible, the drinks were fantastic and easy to obtain, and the servers and bartenders were attentive, friendly and wonderful. As for the hotel - the rooms are modern, well furnished and comfortable. Coordination of our vendors with the venue was easy and seamless - other than connecting them, we had not a worry. We toured a number of wedding venues in at the Jersey Shore, but as soon as we saw the Windrift, and met Rachel, we knew we had found the right place. The venue is beautiful, the service impeccable, and if you choose to have your wedding here, you will be as happy to have made that choice as we are.

Thank You for your efforts. Excellent...

My husband and I had our May 20 wedding here a few weeks ago and could not have been more happy with the results. We worked with Rachel and Ronda who were incredibly professional, courteous and accommodating with our requests. They worked closely with myself and my family to perfect the seating chart, keep track on payments, establish a timeline w vendors and even collected my many decor trinkets and used their collective creativity to pull the room together and create a stunning result. As far as the venue, our wedding day was very windy and slightly colder but you would never know it from the smile on our guests faces. The room was absolutely stunning and the enclosements on the balcony allowed our guests sitting in that area to still enjoy the ocean view while warmly and comfortably enclosed in the room. The food and alcohol options were tremendous, delicious and left our guests raving about their meals even in to the next day. I honestly consider The Windrift to be the ...

The Windrift provided a stunningly beautiful beach front locale for the wedding and beautiful lodging for our guests. Add in the fun factor along with friendly, attentive staff and service and the result is the perfect wedding weekend from start to finish. We will always be grateful!
