Weddings in Siesta Key

Your Siesta Key wedding, beautifully planned.

Siesta Key’s fine, white quartz sand and wide Gulf horizon make one of the most beautiful wedding settings in Florida. The sand stays cool underfoot, the water turns every shade of blue, and the sun sets straight into the Gulf. It is a place where a simple ceremony can feel extraordinary.

A beach ceremony looks effortless, but light and timing deserve real attention. We will think about where the sun will be during your vows, how guests reach the ceremony, and where to make portraits without missing the celebration.

I know this stretch of coast well, from Siesta Beach to Crescent Beach and Turtle Beach. We will choose a portrait plan that suits your venue and your timeline, and keep a covered backup in mind.

Planning notes

Planning a Siesta Key wedding.

  1. i.

    Time it to the sun

    A ceremony that ends about an hour before sunset gives even light for the vows and golden light for portraits.

  2. ii.

    Mind the wind

    Gulf breezes lift veils beautifully. A few pins and a plan for loose hair keep everyone comfortable.

  3. iii.

    Confirm permits

    Your venue or planner can confirm current beach-wedding permit and access requirements.
