The Planning has Begun...



We are still in the beginning stages on planning. We are looking at a few options as far as locations. The Florida Keys is my FIRST choice however I have agreed to consider other options as well (Georgia or possibly the florida panhandle). My mother & I will be going to Key Largo, Islamorada & Marathon, florida Dec 28th - 30th to look at locations & meet with venders.

Here is a little bit about the wedding just to give you an idea of what I have so far, but like I said before, it's still tentitive til we see the venues & put down deposits.


WEDDING PLANNER: Danielle Smith (reccomended by Caribbean Catering)


WEDDING DATES:
We want to do an afternoon wedding in October however we are flexible with this date if we need to.  Although we LOVE Halloween, I don't want a halloween themed wedding. I'd like to keep it classy & elegant. (Martha Stewart or J Crew Wedding style)

VENUE:
As of now my top venues are:
1. Coconut Palm Inn - Key Largo http://www.coconutpalminn.com/


2. Pierre's Restarant -Islamorada http://www.pierres-restaurant.com/



3. Tranquility Bay - Marathon http://www.tranquilitybay.com/


4. Islander Resort - Islamorada http://www.islanderfloridakeys.com/




HOTEL: I want to stay @ The moorings Village at least 2 nights possibly after the wedding. I am so in LOVE with this property & is the main inspiration for having our wedding in the Keys!


COLORS: I haven't decided on colors however I am leaning toward a beige wedding with maybe hints of antique pink or pale blue? I just like the simplicity & elegance of it
