Beautiful venue!My husband and I moved from the east coast of Florida over here to the west coast and knew we wanted a sunset wedding. Our first venue to look at was Lovers Key and we immediately fell in love with the scenery. Our favorite part of the beach was seeing the giant pieces of driftwood for perfect photo ops. Amanda was our coordinator and she is one of the sweetest women I’ve ever met! She was always on top of getting back to us with any questions or concerns we had. Everything we asked for, she was able to do. The day of our wedding, it rained all morning and we for sure thought we were going to have to postpone but Amanda was able to wait just until the rain stopped and her and the rest of the crew were able to get the tables, centerpieces, chairs, our arch, the decorations, etc. up in no time. The amount of professionalism and dedication that she put into our wedding amazed us and we are forever grateful for that. Everything was even more beautiful than imagined. We went with neutral colors that complimented the scenery very well. The gazebo was decorated with linens and Edison lights for the dancing and drinking part of the reception. For the dinner we also had the Edison lights set up on the beach. It was one of the best nights of our life and I wish I could do it all over again. Amanda, thank you so much for giving us our dream wedding and being there for anything we needed. You’re the best!Taylor & Zach
We hosted our destination wedding at Lovers Key early November. We had a beach side ceremony and reception at the gazebo. It was everything we could have asked for, and more! The venue was absolutely stunning. Amanda, the on-site event coordinator was amazing to work with. We planned the wedding throughout COVID and she made everything so easy for us, And was flexible with unexpected last minute changes, up until wedding day! Day of The wedding, she made everything run so smoothly, and went above and beyond to help me and my husband relax, and take time to embrace the day, which we so appreciated. She also brought us around via golf cart, to several places in the state park, with our photographers to get some seriously amazing pictures! She always made sure we had food and drink as we were running around and made sure we were always the priority. She was truly amazing to work with! I would definitely consider having Your wedding here if you love nature, adventure, the beach with a stunning backdrop, and an amazing coordinator! We can’t recommend it enough! We were 11/10 satisfied and wouldn’t of changed a thing!
Amanda was wonderful and understood our budget and was able to make our wedding day perfect! She was very responsive via email and always responded in a positive way. Venue is beautiful and enchanting! Highly recommend if you want a beach wedding. This is your place!
Amanda was amazing. Ive been to many wedding venues, and this is by far the best. I cant recommend it enough. Jeff
Lovers Key State Park was the PERFECT venue for our beach fairytale wedding!When we were venue shopping we were looking for a beach venue where we could have our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception in the sand. This was harder to find than you may think as most venues just have the ceremony in the sand and the remainder of your event in a ballroom. Luckily, my parents saw Lovers Key as an option and it sounded perfect!From our first visit to Lovers Key, we were in LOVE! Lovers Key State Park is like no other venue! And it was everything we were looking for - a dreamy, private beach venue that we could make our own. A venue where no wedding is the same. A place we could have our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and dancing all on the sand under the Florida sky. We especially loved riding on the tram through the beautiful nature park that led to the beach where there was a huge gazebo right on the sand, perfect for dancing!From the initial visit, Amanda Reynolds was so helpful in providing us with all the information we would need to make a well informed decision - from recommended vendors, venue layouts, rental pricing, and sample invoices, she had it all ready for us! Amanda was truly phenomenal! She is so sweet and we quickly realized having her to organize and coordinate our wedding was INVALUABLE! She became my right-hand throughout the wedding planning process - working hand-in-hand with myself, our caterer and DJ to create a realistic timeline of events and venue layout. There were a few rental items I fell in love with and Amanda worked hard to secure them for our wedding - namely our white chiavari chairs and our beautiful four-post arch. She was so patient and accommodating and was a the key to making our wedding day run so smoothly. She guided us through our rehearsal and was there the day of to direct my wedding party down the aisle as well as coordinate all the vendors and ensure everything was set up in the correct place the day of the wedding. She even offered to set up our personal decorations on the day of the wedding.When our wedding day came, it was truly MAGICAL! Everything at the venue looked more beautiful than we ever expected! The set up was true to what we discussed and the decorations were so dreamy! Throughout the whole event Amanda was right there for anything we needed! She directed everyone down the aisle and took my husband and I by golf-cart to the driftwood for our photos. She went above and beyond her job description - even helping our photographer to pose us and bustling my dress before the reception. We had a special request for a fire entertainer to perform over dinner which had never been done at Lovers Key before. This was initially declined, but Amanda unexpectedly made it happen! We were overjoyed and our guests are still raving about the performance and our unique venue.So in summary - Lovers Key State Park was the PERFECT venue for the beach wedding of our dreams! Amanda will ensure your wedding day is as perfect as it can be by going above and beyond her job description. Thank you so much Amanda for all you did to make our wedding day so special and so perfect. You really took the stress off of us so we could have a magical and fun wedding day!
