“Our wedding took place in December 2019 at the Old Davie Schoolhouse. For anybody looking to have their wedding in Florida somewhere other than the usual beach/hotel/resort (as we were), we would highly recommend them. The venue was beautiful, price was reasonable, and Kris was very professional and great to work with. It looked like it was going to rain during our outdoor ceremony and they adapted with ease. 10/10.”
