Ivy & Anthony Cooksey

Nicki, Callie, and Amanda thank you so much for everything with planning my beautiful wedding ceremony! And all the communication via email. It was definitely worth it and I’m so happy I choose to have my ceremony at your location. I just absolutely love Miramar Beach and the setup was so beautiful thanks to your crew. Also the cake was AMAZING!! I wish I could’ve got to eat more of it! We will definitely be back Destin is our favorite vacation spot. We’ll have to come visit you when we do and I would absolutely recommend you to anyone I know that’s considering doing a destination wedding! 🙂😊

Adam and I can not thank you enough for helping our day come together so smoothly. Our families keep saying what an amazing time they all had!

Thank you and your team for making our dreams come true!

Alyce & Thomas Sovcik

Planning a wedding out of state can be extremely stressful however with the help of Callie & Nicki our day was more perfect than we could have ever imagined. From the delicious food, stunning setup and undeniable service we would recommend Island Sands Beach Weddings for ALL your wedding planning needs. We are so grateful that our wedding dreams came true and are so appreciative to the whole team!

Lynsey and Mark Atchison

Island Sands Beach Wedding made all my wedding dreams come true. Nicki and her team are truly the best people to work with when planning a wedding from another state. During the planning process they made everything as stress free as possible. Every time I would reach out to them with questions they would quickly respond and put my mind at ease. No question or concern was every too big or too small. I knew from working with them on all the wedding plans that they would also be amazing when it came to the actual wedding day, but they even exceeded my expectations for the day off! Nicki is amazing at what she does and calmed all my nerves when it came to the day of our wedding. She did everything she could to make my dream wedding happen even with inclement weather in the forecast. I cannot thank Nicki and her team enough for being willing to make last minutes changes to meet our expectations. I never had to worry about one detail because they were always one step ahead of me. It truly was a blessing to get to work with the Island Sands Beach Wedding team.

Joel & Reba Alcoba

Perfection is the only word to describe our wedding and the planning process. Planning a wedding from another state can be extremely difficult, but Island Sands Beach Wedding made it truly easy. Nicki and her team were so courteous, responsive, detailed and helpful from the moment we first contacted them until the end of our ceremony, and beyond. We had a glitch in the planning process (which was actually out of their control) and Nicki and her team jumped in to problem solve and offer solutions. And, Nicki and her team were the ones showing empathy and apologizing for other’s errors. The vendors selected were amazing. They arrived at the scheduled times, their work was amazing and they really seemed to care about making our wedding wonderful! I really cannot recommend Island Sands Beach wedding enough. They are truly amazing at creating the perfect beach wedding! Thank you so much!

Christine and Manuel Tijerina

Our wedding was 8.7.21. We are currently living in Texas and let me tell you how easy they made it for us. You pay a one time fee and Nikki and her crew will book all your venders and make it extremely easy for you. I had no worries or stress through the entire process. I told them exactly what I wanted even my cake style and everything was perfect. We really enjoyed the beach ceremony it was beautiful and the shell blessings was a great way to involve everyone. Fast forward to the reception it has a beautiful view. In the pictures it looks a lot smaller then what it is. It’s very spacious and all of there decor and furniture and everything is up to date and very classy looking. Justine was our wedding coordinator through the entire process, she is very kind and Professional. She will literally make everything perfect. She actually was serving us food and drinks. She definitely went above and beyond. Dan was our officiant and DJ. He was extremely nice did a wonderful job marrying us and turned around and made a great party for all of our guests. The food was delicious 🤤 the drinks were so good!! Our pictures are stunting from the beach ceremony and inside the venue with the beach view. I personally think the wedding was extremely affordable with the location and all the great vendors provided. I can’t picture my wedding being anymore perfect then what it was 💕

Emily and Matthew

I feel our wedding was beautiful and went smoothly! I was very pleased with the planning process, as Nicki, Callie, and Amanda were very receptive, quick to respond and helpful in answering all questions without making me feel as if I was a bother. I loved seeing how they would make note of all info I picked and discussed with them along the way, by sending a detailed breakdown with a form the used consistently. They were also great about providing information regarding directions, good suggestions, and parking information. One of the things I’m MOST happy about that I wasn’t sure I wanted to do originally was rent the bridal suite! I am SO SO glad I did. It was stunning. Plenty of space, and was great to have a place to go between photos and the ceremony. This was a life saver! Everyone was so helpful!! Justine and her assistant were great about helping us with spur of The moment events and changes during the reception. The ONLY thing that didn’t go as I planned is sooo small, but one song I chose was missed in the ceremony (family walking down the aisle). It actually turned out to be better off that way though lol. I would highly recommend this team of professionals!! Only wish I had been able to meet Callie in person because she was so helpful throughout!

Yvette and Mark

Nikki and staff:

You are all fantastic! I want to take the opportunity to let anyone know that choosing you for their special day will never become a regret. Thank you all for your patience and sweetness throughout my many decision changes and the struggle of accomplishing a destination wedding during the Covid-19 pandemic…we did it! My only dissapointment was the downpour at the end of our vows but you actually got us through most of that. Everyone was wonderful Callie, David, Justine , April (hair stylist) Amanda and even the cake maker (apologize for forgetting your name) they were gracious enough to enjoy cake with us even though soaking wet! Flowers were gorgeous, the ceremony was beautiful and the pictures turned out wonderful, they did an amazing job . We ate a the Royal Palm Grille afterwards and the food was delicious, staff was amazing there as well. They truly love what they do and it shows.

Nick and Leigh Ross

We had our wedding ceremony on 1/25/20 and I have absolutely zero complaints! I was very worried about planning a destination wedding but, Nicki and her team were rock stars! My ceremony was absolutely beautiful (prettier than I could even imagine) and I barely had to do a thing! Her team was extremely responsive to all of the questions I had. I also booked my photography, hair, makeup, & officiate through Island Sands Beach Weddings and every single one of the vendors were amazing! We had a quick rehearsal the day before the ceremony and it was a breeze the day of! I would highly recommend Island Sands Beach Weddings for your special day! Nicki knows what she’s doing and she will make your day special and will meet any needs you have!

Thank you so much for making our day a very special and memorable day. Your consistency and excellence in event planning is one that is unmatched. Our day was so beautiful and stress free. Again thank you for all that you do to help couples around the world!

Melissa & Joshua Hall

I can’t say enough good things about this wedding company. The location they host events in was beautiful and Callie was amazing to work with. We had our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception all through Island Sands. I asked so many questions and we significantly increased our original count and she always responded super promptly to talk me through everything, make new plans, or make any changes. Nikki was a rockstar during the whole weekend making sure everything ran perfectly. The rehearsal dinner bonfire was so amazing and the wedding and reception was even more so. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect and beautiful weekend. You can tell this business really really cares about making each bride’s wedding experience perfect and fit exactly to the vision they have of their wedding day. I’m so happy I booked with them!

Blake & Danielle

The Island Sands Beach Wedding team is nothing short of amazing! The care each and every person put into making our day special was incredible! They took care of each and every detail to make sure our wedding was stress free! Highly recommend Island Sands Beach Weddings!!!

Chelsea & Austin Wilson

Nicki, Callie and the rest of the team,

I just wanted to say thank you for making our day so perfect and wonderful! We got married on June 1st and it was truly the best day of our lives. We had so much fun and everything turned out fantastic. I appreciate your patience, countless emails answering all of my questions, working with our budget, helping us with the beautiful bonfire dinner and everything on our wedding day. The bonfire rehearsal dinner was stunning! Everything about that setting was so relaxing, beautiful and fun. The food was incredible and the service we received from all of the staff was phenomenal. I was surprisingly very relaxed on my wedding day and that’s because you guys made everything so easy. Thank you, thank you, thank you for EVERYTHING!!! You guys are amazing!

Danelle & Anthony

Nicki,

Thank you so much on making are day so special. You and callie did such amazing job you cant really describe it in words it was just breathtaking. From us being from Ohio I really didn’t know how it would work out just emailing and talking on the phone Nikki and Callie had it right on point anything we wanted anything we added they were right there. They took all the stress out of the matter especially being a man don’t really know how to do anything and they hit it right on point. So I definitely give this a five-star and I will recommend it to anybody that will have a beach wedding in Florida.
