Anthony's Ocean View

Anthony's Ocean View is a family-run waterfront wedding venue in New Haven, Connecticut, overlooking the Connecticut shoreline. Founded in 1986 by Anthony Delmonaco from Gioia Sannitica, Italy, the venue has been operated by the same family for nearly four decades across three generations. Many staff members have been with the venue since its early days. The facility features four distinct ballrooms accommodating between 75 and 550 guests. The Paradise Ballroom on the upper level offers views and beach access. The Lily Ballroom features an elegant staircase for photos. The Rose Ballroom includes its own courtyard for cocktail parties. The Grand Ballroom combines the Lily and Rose spaces for large celebrations. Outdoor ceremony options include a tropical garden with pavilions, outdoor bar areas, and a waterfall. The venue's in-house catering team provides white-glove service with bar and food options including traditionally plated and station-style dining. The experienced event team assists with planning and execution. The building is wheelchair accessible and has dressing rooms on-site. The resort-like atmosphere makes it suitable for destination weddings and elopements.
