We could not have asked for a better venue. Their all inclusive package cannot be beat. They provide decor, day of coordinator, planner, caterer, desserts, DJ & more. The grounds are beautiful. The location is perfect, so close to everything which made planning our rehearsal & lodging so easy. The staff is incredible. From the young men who opened the barn doors for my entrance, the planner, Theresa, to our Coordinator Hector, we could not have asked for more. They were amazingly kind, helpful & kept our day running perfectly. 10/10 absolutely loved the Barn @ Crescent Lake!

Key Largo Lighthouse is a complete paradise. From the moment we started planning, everything was a dream. Everyone who came to our wedding had the nicest things to say about this venue, and several told me it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to! One of the most special parts of this venue is being able to stay on-site for the weekend with your closest family and friends. The property is absolutely stunning! So well kept, peaceful, and relaxing. It truly feels like your own private oasis where you can just soak in every moment surrounded by the people you love most. The planning process was effortless. Choosing vendors was easy, communication was smooth, and the whole experience was stress-free. The food was absolutely delicious. In my opinion (and many of my guests), it was the best wedding catering ever! The beach houses were so clean and made my day completely worry-free. Everything came to me,hair, makeup, decorating, so I got to relax and enjoy my morning with my bridal party instead of traveling anywhere. Our wedding planner, Ali, was the best decision we made. She made sure every little detail was perfect. Even when I forgot to put my garter on, she was right there to help. She’s professional, kind, and truly cared about making our day flawless. She even took behind-the-scenes photos that meant so much to me. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. My wedding day was more than I ever imagined, and I owe that to Key Largo Lighthouse and Ali!

Working with Pelican Club was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, Courtney and Christina were incredibly helpful during the initial planning phase. We visited the venue multiple times—often bringing our parents when they were in town—and they always welcomed us warmly. Their vendor list and thoughtful advice made selecting our dream team so much easier. We chose not to hire a day‑of coordinator, and we are so glad we didn’t. Brittney was exceptional. She guided us through the rehearsal, handled all the setup of our décor items, and ensured the entire day ran smoothly. She coordinated seamlessly with all our vendors and made sure everyone had exactly what they needed. Our bridal attendant, Tequila, was the star of the show—our families are still raving about her. She was there the moment we needed anything: grabbing drinks, fixing dress zippers, adjusting veils, and packing up our belongings at the end of the night. Her presence made the day feel effortless. The entire Pelican Club staff, from the chef to the catering team, absolutely blew us away. The sea bass and steak duet was phenomenal, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about the cocktail hour—from the raw bar and charcuterie to the Greek station and the incredible bartenders. Pelican also offered butler‑passed drinks as guests arrived before the ceremony, which was such a classy and memorable touch. Pelican Club is a well‑oiled machine, delivering elite professionalism and truly high‑end service. And of course, the view is unmatched—the best look at the Jupiter Lighthouse you could ever ask for. We couldn’t imagine a more beautiful, seamless, or joy‑filled wedding day. Pelican Club exceeded every expectation.

We LOVED our wedding at the Coconut Palm Inn! The venue was beautiful. We loved that you get the whole resort so there's no one else on property. You have to get all your vendors, there's nothing provided, but we liked that because we were able to make it our own. They were easy to work with, great staff, and we didn't have any real issues the weekend of the wedding. It was a little pricey for the event and the rooms surrounding the weekend, but it was worth it for us. The resort had lots of amenities that you could use; free muffins, fruit, and coffee every morning; and smores at night (besides the ceremony night). For the one event price, we could also have our Welcome Dinner/Rehearsal Dinner and any other events there, so for one flat price you get the whole resort for the weekend to have multiple events. I highly recommend the CPI if you want to have an intimate (max 100 guests), relaxing, fun, beautiful wedding right on the bay side of the Florida Keys.

I loved having my wedding at this venue. Their whole team is fantastic. I mostly worked with Lee, and he helped us so much! Since we have a 145 guest count we had to do a ballroom change over but the DJ wanted be in same place from ceremony to reception, he helped us arrange the room to hid the large DJ set up the best we could for the ceremony! The venue is gorgeous, everyone could not stop talking about how pretty it was. We chose River City from their catering options and had a great experience. The day of when I arrived to the venue they had a cart ready to carry anything we needed and an umbrella to keep me shaded as I walked up. They really do care about customer experience. They were also super transparent about pricing, which is very rare in the wedding industry sadly. I could not recommend this venue enough!

We had our wedding at Private 131 and couldn't have asked for a better experience. From our first conversation through the big day, the team kept us in the loop every step of the way and answered all our questions without any confusion. The venue itself is absolutely stunning with thoughtful decor that made our guests feel like they stepped into a special place. We didn't have to worry about the details because the staff handled everything smoothly and professionally. The space felt elegant but also comfortable, which is exactly what we were looking for.

Dream Bay Resort was an incredible venue for our wedding weekend. We actually reserved it without ever seeing it in person, which felt like a bit of a leap at the time—but it truly could not have worked out better. Because we were planning our wedding from outside the country, we opted to use their on site property manager / wedding planner Lana and we highly recommend anyone considering this addition to not think twice!! She went above and beyond to make things easier for us, was always available for any questions and was extremely easy to communicate with and was ultimately the reason why our entire weekend went exactly as we hoped it would. She even allowed us to ship packages to her ahead of time so we didn’t have to travel with bulky items. That level of support made such a difference while planning from afar. We hosted three events over the weekend—a welcome party, our wedding, and a brunch. Lana truly brought our vision to life for each one. Her creativity and eye for décor are incredible. She was able to recreate Pinterest inspiration we sent her from just a single photo, and everything turned out even better than we imagined. The entire Dream Bay team was amazing, and they handled the setup and breakdown of tables and chairs for all of our events, which made the weekend feel seamless. One of the best decisions we made was renting out the entire property. Having the resort exclusively for our guests created such a special atmosphere. Being able to walk between the cottages to visit friends and family throughout the weekend made everything feel intimate and relaxed, and it made getting to each of our events incredibly convenient for everyone. Obviously the setting itself is absolutely stunning— the sunsets and waterfront views provided the perfect backdrop for our ceremony and photos.

We got married here on May 3, 2024 and our wedding at The Palms was a DREAM! The venue itself is STUNNING and doesn't require you to spend much time or money on decorating. The beautiful tropical plants and flowers that are already at the venue truly speak for themselves! As a result of this, we didn't need to spend much money on flowers or decor for the reception. Our ceremony was on the beach, which, again, was stunning! Our cocktail hour was at the gazebo area, which has a beautiful, flower covered gazebo that is perfect for photos. Our seated dinner and dancing was at the Grand Tiki Hut, which once again, had a beautiful, tropical ambiance. Our guests absolutely loved the venue and we could not have been happier with how it turned out. It truly was a dream. The on-site wedding coordinator, Vanessa Ortiz, was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was there for us every step of the way and on our actual wedding day, helped us with unexpected things (like helping my fiance unbutton the 30 buttons on my dress so I could do an outfit change for the dancing, haha). She is warm, kind and amazing at her job. Vanessa took great care with all of the decor we brought and set up everything to our exact instructions. We also worked with her colleague, Barbara, for our wedding tasting. She was equally as kind and wonderful! Speaking of the tasting, The Palms has a restaurant on-site called Essensia, which was the caterer for all of the food (aside from the cake). Let me tell you, my husband and I are foodies and we both agreed that the food was absolutely delicious! I cannot rave about this venue enough! Overall, it was a perfect experience and we were able to have our dream wedding! Do yourself a favor and have your wedding here! :)

As a local wedding photographer, I’ve had the opportunity to work at many venues across Florida—and SunScape & SeaScape truly stand out. The locations are not only stunning, with their private beachfront views and thoughtfully designed spaces, but they’re also run by an incredibly kind and professional team. Brad and Becky have poured their hearts into creating a venue that is not only beautiful but also warm and welcoming.
