Long Branch gives a wedding its ocean light. TillingHouse, about ten minutes inland on the Suneagles Golf Club grounds, gives it a 500-guest ballroom, a garden terrace, and a kitchen that never leaves the building.
The ocean for your portraits. The Ballroom for your party.

Plenty of couples want the Jersey Shore in their wedding without trusting the whole evening to a beach breeze. The answer is geography: portraits on the Long Branch oceanfront, then a reception ten minutes west where the room is climate-controlled, the bar runs 52 feet, and the terrace opens onto fairways instead of a parking lot.
Your photo team gets the golden hour on the sand. Your guests get an evening that does not depend on the weather.
If your guest list is booked into oceanfront hotels, the logistics stay simple. The drive from downtown Long Branch runs about ten minutes on Route 36, parking is on the grounds, and the same short drive returns everyone home at the end of the night.
- The Ballroom. Up to 500 guests and a garden terrace with two built-in bars.
- The Parlor Bar. Cocktail hour on a private terrace above the golf course.
- The Parlor. Ceremonies and intimate dinners by the 1926 fireplace.
- The Byron Nelson Room. Up to 75 guests with a private bar and cathedral ceilings.
The cuisine is prepared entirely in-house, led by Chef Ryan DePersio, the chef-restaurateur behind Battello and Fascino, with Executive Chef Dennis Mathews running the kitchen.
From raw-bar cocktail hours to plated dinners, the menu is composed around your day. One kitchen, one standard, no outside caterers.
Get ready in the Bridal Suite with its on-site salon, keep family close in the Family Suite, and give the wedding party the Game Room between the morning and the aisle.
Ceremony, cocktails, reception, and send-off can all happen here, with the ocean twenty minutes round-trip for the photographs you will frame.
TillingHouse is at 2000 Lowther Drive in Eatontown, roughly five miles inland from the Long Branch beachfront.
- Downtown Long Branch
- Route 36 west toward Eatontown. About ten minutes in normal traffic.
- West Long Branch & Oceanport
- Local roads to the Suneagles grounds. Just a few minutes.
- Monmouth Beach & Sea Bright
- South along the shore, then west on Route 36. Roughly twenty minutes.
On-site parking on the grounds. Guests staying at oceanfront hotels have one simple drive each way.
How far is TillingHouse from the Long Branch oceanfront?
About ten minutes by car. We are at 2000 Lowther Drive in Eatontown, on the Suneagles Golf Club grounds, a straight run inland on Route 36.
Can we do beach portraits and still have the reception with you?
Yes, couples do it often. The oceanfront is close enough for a golden-hour portrait session between the ceremony and the reception, and your events team here keeps the evening's timeline on track while you are gone.
What size wedding can you hold?
The Ballroom takes up to 500 guests. The Byron Nelson Room seats up to 75, and the Parlor hosts intimate ceremonies and dinners by its 1926 fireplace.
Is catering handled by the venue?
Entirely. Our in-house kitchen is led by Chef Ryan DePersio of Battello and Fascino with Executive Chef Dennis Mathews on the line. There is nothing to source and no vendor to manage.
Where do guests park?
On the grounds, steps from the entrance, with capacity for a full Ballroom evening. No shore-season meter hunting.
Do you still have 2027 dates?
Yes, we are booking 2027 weddings now. Summer shore-season weekends draw the earliest interest, so check your date sooner rather than later.
Ten minutes inland. Come see why.
