Absecon Lighthouse, Pacific and Rhode Island avenues, Atlantic City.

ATLANTIC CITY – Absecon Lighthouse is hosting its annual “Evening of Romance and Renewal” on Valentine’s Day, Wednesday, Feb. 14. Couples are invited to take part in a group vow renewal ceremony by a non-denominational minister in the Keeper’s Cottage at 6 p.m., followed by a champagne toast of congratulations and romantic dancing to the live music and beautiful sounds of classic love songs and standards, presented by Lisa Camp of Groove Heart. What better way to set the mood for a romantic dinner out in Atlantic City afterward?

A donation minimum of $40 per couple includes the ceremony, tower climb, live music and dancing, and champagne toast, but couples are asked to “give from the heart,” as this is a fundraising event.  Doors open at 5 p.m. and the event concludes at 7 p.m.  Make a reservation by calling the lighthouse at 609-449-1360.

The Lighthouse will also host DeLIGHTful Date days, Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 10-11, when a couple on a date can climb the lighthouse for the price of one.

Absecon Lighthouse is a state-owned historic property administered by the non-profit Inlet Public/Private Association. Located at 31 S. Rhode Island Ave. in Atlantic City, it is open to visitors 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Thursday through Monday. 

Absecon Lighthouse received a general operating support grant from the New Jersey Historical Commission, a division of the Department of State, and the New Jersey Arts and Culture Renewal Fund of the Princeton Area Community Foundation.
