Donald and Carol Kress Pavilion is an event venue and community center in Egg Harbor. Our building, completed in early 2018, houses the Village Library and Community Center.
We offer a second-floor Great Hall event space with wrap-around porches overlooking the bay and orchards, two meeting spaces, a lounge, and a living room with a fireplace.
My partner and I are so grateful we got to hold our wedding celebrations at the Kress. The space was perfect, and the team (Alex and Kristen) were amazing. They both went above and beyond to support us in the planning and realization of our day. Thank you, thank you!

We had our wedding at the Kress on 10/25/25. Everything was perfect! From the planning in the months leading up to the actual day Alex and the other Kress staff answered all of our many questions and kept everything super organized. Even when we had some troubles with other vendors, Alex assured us that she was in contact with them and we were all set to go. The venue is gorgeous and all of our guests raved about it. They were also extremely transparent about pricing which I appreciate. Thank you!!

We had our wedding here and it was absolutely perfect! Event Director, Alex made the whole process run so smoothly, we
couldn’t have done this without her. We had just over 80 guests and the space sat everyone comfortable yet intimate. The grand hall and sunsets over Lake Michigan are stunning. Can’t recommend this venue enough!

We had the best experience getting married at Kress Pavilion! Despite having a severe storm hit right before our wedding, the staff at Kress, Alex and Kirsten, worked effortlessly in the rain and wind to save our big day. They moved our ceremony and all the outdoor decor inside and quickly pivoted to keep on schedule and make everything look beautiful! Leading up to the wedding, Alex was so helpful and responsive and made the process really amazing. Such a beautiful venue & such amazing staff. A perfect place to get married!

We LOVED working with the Kress team for our wedding! It was truly the most beautiful day made possible by such an incredible space and the kind hearted staff to go with it. We had several guests comment on how beautiful and unique of a wedding venue it was - and we couldn't agree more! This place will forever have a special place in our hearts! The photos don't even do the venue justice - it is truly stunning and so bright and open!!
