For 30 years, we have done one thing and done it well. We host weddings, just yours, on the day that belongs to you. Sand Castle is a private Long Island wedding venue in Franklin Square, set across four landscaped acres in the heart of Nassau County.
Most venues run two or three events a day and hope nobody notices. We made the opposite choice a long time ago. Unlike crowded Long Island wedding venues that book back to back receptions, we host one wedding at a time so the entire estate, and our entire team, is yours.
Two maitre Ds, dedicated bridal attendants, and one server per table stay focused on your wedding alone, while your photographer never waits for another couple to clear the gardens.
Elegant décor and table linens set for your theme, included in every package.
A full cocktail hour with top shelf pours and generous stations.
Our kitchen prepares a gourmet menu in house, from cocktail hour through dessert.
Your wedding cake and dessert stations are built into the package.
We handle the complete ceremony setup and uplighting for the room.
Two private bridal suites for the day, plus a Rolls-Royce send off.
Whether you picture an outdoor ceremony under open sky or a sunlit room no matter the forecast, we have a space for it.
Our indoor ceremonies are held in the Four Season Glass Atrium, a light filled space wrapped in glass with garden views on every side. Rain, heat, or a January chill, your ceremony stays beautiful and your guests stay comfortable.
For couples who want to exchange vows in open air, our grounds deliver. Walk down the grand staircase to a setting framed by a gentle waterfall and a quiet pond. The landscaped gardens shift with the seasons, so your photos always look unmistakably ours.
When the ceremony ends, the celebration moves to our Grand Ballroom. High ceilings, stone pillars, chandeliers, and a spacious dance floor give your reception room to breathe. Every detail is dressed to match your theme.

My husband and I had the most amazing and beautiful wedding at the Sand Castle on 11/16/2024! We planned our wedding in less than 4 months and the Sand Castle was paramount in accommodating our timing, needs and expectations. Loula and the entire team helped make our special day truly memorable! The food was tremendous—everything you could possibly want was available on the menu! Guests ate and drank their hearts out! We would definitely recommend this business. Thank you!
