Florida weather is very unpredicatable! Let's pray for perfect weather. However, if there is going to be inclement weather, we will try to anticipate this ahead of time. In this case, the ceremony will be moved inside to the reception venue. Please expect hotter temperatures and possibly humidity, but note that it is a sunset wedding so we will be outside during the coolest part of the day. We will be in contact if anything needs to be changed or updated.

Answer

At the beach, we would love for our guests to join us as we indulge our toes in the sand, but feel free to wear sandals, flip flops or any shoes you feel comfortable in.

At the beach ceremony, feel free to sit wherever you would like. There will be reserved seating for the bridal party and family of the bride and groom in the first few rows.
