You’ve spent months (maybe years!) planning your wedding, and you have thousands of details floating around in your mind. The final detail meeting and venue walk through is the perfect time to review those details and be sure that you have communicated them to your team of wedding pros. Let’s take a look at the final detail meeting/venue walk through.
The First Coast Weddings team spent almost a year working with Dana, Patrick and Dana’s parents to create a magical destination wedding in Ponte Vedra Beach! Patrick, who is from Germany, had many family members and friends travel to Florida for the wedding, and both Dana and Patrick have friends that live across the country and the world that were able to celebrate with them. So many details were incorporated to reflect Patrick’s German heritage and the notoriety of their venue, TPC Sawgrass, in the golf world. They even incorporated putting greens for their guests to enjoy during the reception! Their band, The Royals, kept the dance floor packed all night. And the flowers from Rose of Sharon were simply amazing!
“Thank you so much for all that you did to make Saturday an incredible celebration. I could not be more happy with it all and so appreciate your support to me and mom to plan every last detail. Your little extras in things like the German wedding cup were amazing…It was all we could have imagined and more!” - Dana

After several postponements, a move across the country, and a full year wait from their original wedding date, we were thrilled to see Samantha and Chris say “I Do” at the Sawgrass Marriott Resort and Spa. This couple’s love for each other, and their families, were so evident throughout the wedding planning process and especially the wedding day. Even their dog Boo was part of the festivities!

Caris and Travis had a beautiful wedding overlooking the St Johns River at the Florida Yacht Club in Jacksonville! It was a little windy, but Caris and Travis had their hearts set on keeping their ceremony outside, overlooking the marina. Their guests enjoyed dancing the night away in the stunning ballroom.
