Spring Valley Country Club Tee Times

We got married here in October and while we had a wonderful wedding, there were unfortunately many disappointments from the Cape Club and I would not recommend getting married here if you want an outdoor ceremony. The most upsetting and frankly unacceptable part of our day was the complete disregard for our ceremony. During our tour, we were explicitly assured that golfers would be held from the hole directly behind the ceremony site. This was a key factor in our decision to book the venue. Despite that clear assurance, only minutes into our ceremony a group teed off directly behind the pergola—fully visible and audible to us and our guests. Even worse, a golf ball flew over and landed less than six feet from our officiant. Not only was this genuinely a scary safety issue, it was incredibly distracting and upsetting. The venue failed to uphold their commitment, and it had a significant negative impact on a moment that was very special to us. Although the ceremony was the biggest disappointment, unfortunately it wasn’t the only issue that day. There were two issues regarding cleanliness in the bathroom/bridal suite. One of my bridesmaids hung her dress up in the bathroom while we were getting ready and when she took it off there was a large gel-like substance (assumed to be cleaner of some sort) stained on her dress and we were unable to get it off, so she walked down the aisle with that stain. My dress also became dirty just from the time spent getting ready in the bridal suite. There was very visible dirt around the border of my dress’ train, before even leaving the bridal suite. It is understandable that no floor is going to be pristinely clean, but the level of dirt was significant and noticeable. Finally, I had asked that my sober and pregnant guests have a non alcoholic beverage placed at their seat for toasting because I wanted everyone to feel included. I was assured this was no problem when discussing the reception with the Cape Club, only to find out that alcoholic champagne had been placed at all of their seats. We reached out to the Cape Club after the wedding to address these issues, and I was genuinely shocked to see them respond with such little empathy or accountability. While they acknowledged the substandard cleanliness and overlooked details, their comments regarding the golfing situation were infuriating. They stated that they “do their best to limit play near the ceremony but do not guarantee full stoppage of play during weddings,” which directly contradicts what we were told during our tour. On top of that, it was clearly an organized children’s golf event taking place during our ceremony. This means not only did they fail to limit play, but they knowingly scheduled a children’s event at the same time as our ceremony. Their email also included the statement that “there has never been an issue with a golf ball landing near the ceremony site,” an astonishingly unprofessional thing to say to clients who did have a golf ball land less than six feet from their officiant. We replied to their email nearly two months ago and have not received any further response. While there are positive aspects to hosting a wedding at the Cape Club, I cannot recommend this venue for anyone planning an outdoor ceremony. You should expect golfers to tee off behind you as you say your vows, and the Cape Club has made it clear that they will take no accountability for this and that this is acceptable to occur during a wedding ceremony. I understand that mistakes happen, but the lack of accountability or interest in making things right is the reason for this 2 star review.

The best place to have a medium to large sized wedding in eastern MA! From the moment my husband and I started considering The Cape Club, we had the best experience with the staff and the entire process from start to finish was so seamless. Julie and Kelly are extremely organized, personable, and knowledgeable, helping to answer any questions or concerns timely, and ensure your wedding or event goes exactly as you planned. They truly make you feel like royalty and want to do everything in their power to bring your vision to life. The space itself is beautiful and there is so much autonomy to design the day you envision. Our wedding had 151 people and there was plenty of space at the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. They allow you to do a tasting with your fiance and up to two guests prior to your wedding and it is a great way to try some delicious food and see the potential the space holds. There are so many food options it is difficult to pick from, but they are so yummy you really can’t go wrong. The venue has an excellent layout with so many beautiful spaces to take pictures and for your guests to hang out and enjoy the day. I loved how the ceremony space is surrounded by trees that truly make it a private space and allow for the wedding party and bride to have an actual surprise reveal when walking down the aisle. We even got to play a free round of golf at the course and saw the employees working hard to set up a beautiful ceremony space for us, and they did not disappoint. After our ceremony we were greeted with champagne and a golf cart ride to some more photos. It was so great to have an entire separate space for cocktail hour from the reception area with outside and inside options. All of the staff was great at making sure my husband and I drank plenty of water and had all of the food and drinks we wanted. It is such a great plus that the coordinators and staff do all of the set up and break down for you prior to and after the day. They really make it all about you and are so helpful without overstepping. Sherry was irreplaceable on our wedding day, driving us around in the golf cart and doing everything in her power to make sure we had all we needed and took care of fluffing my dress and holding my veil. She was a true rockstar of the day. There is so much more I could share, but I’ll just tell you to make sure to have your wedding or event at The Cape Club!

We had our wedding at The Cape Club of Sharon on 7/27/24. We had the most amazing experience, and cannot imagine a more perfect venue for us. The venue’s coordinators Julie and Kelly were vital every step on the way for us. Communication was fantastic from day one, and they were vital the day of the wedding. I had a few unique “asks”, and they were always receptive and made it happen. They were also so patient with any questions I had. The entire staff at the club was amazing. The day of bridal coordinator, Sherly, made the day run so smoothly for me, as the bride. She was always one step ahead anticipating my needs. Darlene, the bartenders, the servers- even guests noticed that everyone went above and beyond. Guests also raved about the food, many people said it was the best wedding food they have had. We used the bridal suite and it was perfect for getting ready. My girls loved it, and hair/makeup said it was the best set up they have ever seen. In all, I wouldn’t change a thing. The venue and staff way exceeded our expectations. It was the most beautiful day, and the most beautiful place.

I attended a wedding here over the summer. The venue was very spacious and beautiful. The grass and flowers were well kept. However, the food was not good. Very under seasoned, and the salmon that I ordered was still raw in some parts. The drinks were good, and the bartenders were friendly.

As a wedding photographer, I had the pleasure of working at The Cape Club of Sharon for a recent wedding and I must say, it was an incredible experience. The venue is simply stunning and offers an array of breathtaking backdrops for capturing memories. From the lush greenery to the beautiful ballroom, there was no shortage of gorgeous locations for portraits. The staff was incredibly friendly and supportive, making it easy for me to capture the moments that mattered. The Cape Club of Sharon truly goes above and beyond to ensure that every wedding is a success and it shows in the seamless execution of each event. I highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a stunning and memorable wedding experience, and I look forward to the opportunity to shoot there again in the future.
