About the venue
Strand Havenzicht sits directly on the bank of the Zaan, with a wooden jetty reaching well into the water and facing due west. Couples who choose an outdoor ceremony marry on the jetty as the sun sets behind the industrial harbours, with the beach pavilion as immediate rain backup.
The venue works for 100 to just over 300 guests and runs its own bar and kitchen, backed by a large covered terrace for when the party carries on after sunset. Venue manager Wouter Bakker usually replies within a day and can arrange a separate beach ceremony apart from the dinner on request, with free parking close to the entrance.

Recommendations
5 recommendations“We married on the jetty just as the sun dropped behind the harbours. Wouter had a windbreak ready without us having to ask, because it was quite windy that evening.”
“With 280 guests it felt exactly full without being crowded. The covered terrace behind the jetty filled naturally once the party continued after sunset.”
“Free parking right by the entrance genuinely helped, with elderly guests who would otherwise have had to walk a long way. Small things that make a difference.”
“Wouter replied within a day to every email, even in the final week before the wedding. He arranged a separate beach ceremony apart from the dinner exactly as we wanted.”
“The in-house kitchen cooked for 300 people without anything arriving cold. The bar on the terrace stayed well staffed all evening.”
