Siesta Key Beach Wedding

The Allure of Sanibel Island: More Than Just a Beach Wedding Destination

​

Dreaming of a romantic beach wedding? Look no further than Sanibel Island, the ultimate destination for tying the knot in paradise. But don't be fooled by the sandy shores and breathtaking sunsets – there's so much more to this tropical oasis than just saying "I do" on the beach. From shelling to wildlife adventures, fine dining to outdoor excursions, Sanibel Island offers a world of possibilities for your wedding day and beyond.

​

This gem of a spot is where matrimonial dreams hit the beach running and dive straight into the Gulf of Mexico for something utterly unforgettable. Imagine pledging your eternal love as dolphins play witness (yep, they’re the uninvited but wholly welcome guests here) and pelicans glide overhead, throwing shade – quite literally. Here, the vows are not just exchanged; they’re whispered to the rhythm of the waves, and sealed with a kiss as the horizon blushes. This isn’t your cookie-cutter ceremony by the sea. It’s the start of your adventure, where ‘I do’ is more than just words; it's a promise as deep as the ocean and as vibrant as the sunset that blesses your first evening as a married duo. Sanibel doesn’t do average, and neither should your wedding day or beach wedding package.


Whether you want to relax by the beach, try some land or water sports, learn about the island’s fascinating history, or do a bit of everything, Sanibel is a great place for your Florida Destination Wedding and honeymoon. The Island is unique in that it lies east and west, different than most islands which lie north and south, this direction allows Sanibel Island to catch abundant sea shells that the Gulf of Mexico brings to its shores. Sanibel Island is world renowned for its shells. People from all over the world come to collect and admire the colorful "Treasures From the Sea".

​

You and your family and friends will enjoy your entire stay on the island, not just your wedding day.
