We were so lucky with weather and the sunset, the night was absolutely amazing! Our wedding date was November 12. We had the ceremony on the beach and then the reception was under the pavilion. We decorated mainly with string lights and the vibe was everything I wanted for an island beach wedding. Molly helped us plan and Jess was our day of coordinator, both did an excellent job. Nothing major went wrong and Jess helped keep everything on track. The only real downside was the guests have to use the bathrooms that are inside the restaurant.

Tween Waters was an absolute dream. We had our wedding on the beach (5:30 PM) and reception (6:00-10:00 PM) in the Wakefield Room. Logistically, it was so nice to have everything, including lodging, on the same property. It cut down transportation time between venues like other weddings I've been to. We structured our wedding day so that the entire morning, we spent time with our loved ones at the beach, and got meals with family on site which was so relaxing and fun. We wanted our wedding to feel like a family vacation and Tween helped us achieve everything. We worked with Debra who is beyond amazing. She made sure we had everything we needed and worked above and beyond to ensure our day was incredible. All of the guests raved about the food and desserts. We opted to get a spread of Tween's desserts instead of a wedding cake because we love having options and are so glad we went that route. Tween is also extremely detail-oriented, especially if you have guests with food allergies. Our guests who stayed on the property had an absolute blast, and many of them now want to make Tween a part of their family vacations. Tween has many different package options that are customizable depending on your guest count and preferences. Getting ready in an ocean-facing cottage was out of this world amazing and relaxing. Staying on the property allowed flexibility in my outfit change and was able to rinse the sand off our feet before the reception. We were also able to get amazing sunset photographs in my second outfit. Our only regret is that we wish we had extended our stay by a few days after the wedding. We didn't want to leave!

Awarded Best of Zola
Wow I can’t say enough great things about Melissa and the team at Isla del Sol. Not only was the venue just beautiful but they took care of EVERYTHING and it was the easiest process to plan. I am an out of town bride, so having an all-inclusive venue was super important to me. Isla del sol takes care of everything from ceremony, to tables/linens to dining, to food and alcohol and a full team of staff. The food was amazing. The venue and atmosphere were everything I could have dreamed. Melissa and the staff are the most friendly and welcoming individuals. Melissa is so on top of it, super quick to respond, stayed in touch during our long year & half engagement, and worked with us to schedule any tours/tastings around the dates we were in town. One of the best parts, is that you will be the ONLY bride during your wedding weekend. We were able to do rehearsal the night before and the day of had the entire bridal suite and groom suite to ourselves and could enter any time we wanted. We also brought all the décor the night before, so it made it so much easier the day of. I would recommend Isla del Sol to anyone who ever wants to get married in the St Pete area. They made my wedding better than I could have even dreamed.

We highly recommend The Birchwood! Our reception had 123 guests and the ballroom was the perfect size for that guest count -- it felt intimate but not crowded. Everything was so organized down the tiniest details, which resulted in a well run and amazing party. From the beautiful built in bar to the balcony to the top tier food to the gorgeous view on the rooftop for cocktail hour, the night flew by because of how much fun we had. We got great feedback from our guests on the venue too! It is also a gorgeous space that can accommodate many different decor styles but that doesn't need a lot of "extra" decor to look beautiful, which was helpful to me as someone who would be intimidated by a full DIY space but appreciated the flexibility to pick a theme that suited us. It's a venue that photographs very well! Finally and most importantly, the staff are so helpful and professional. We worked with Marlice and Claire for most of our planning process and they were both so organized, responsive and kind. For example, on our final walkthrough, Marlice stayed for extra time to watch us practice our first dance on the dance floor -- she definitely did not need to do that and it was so appreciated. And she was always available to answer any question big or small. Thank you to The Birchwood for making our day feel so special and fun!
