Critical: Responsiveness Very hard to get a response. Was trying to set up/plan my wedding for November. Was told it was unusual to plan this far out in advanced. They asked my what area in florida then I never heard anything back.

We had our wedding on September 25th 2018 on Fort Walton beach. The ceremony was beautiful and included everything we wanted. Everyone involved was super nice and helpful. I couldn't imagine a more peaceful beautiful wedding. Thank you Florida Nuptials for a wedding I'll never forget. I highly recommended their services!

10-3-17 was our wedding date, and a date it was. Our wedding couldn't have possibly gone any better. The sight that Mary Joe and her husband helped us choose was perfect and a beautiful and easy for my wife to get to while wearing her wedding dress. They went above and beyond what we expected to do and genuinely cared about our wedding as if we were there own family. Although we will not be getting married again, we would definitely want Florida Nuptials to perform our ceremony again and again. Cannot thank you guys enough, we are so happy we chose you for our wedding and even happier at the new friends we made this year.

Thank you Mary-Jo and Walter for making our ceremony so amazing. Right from the beginning, through many emails, I knew that I had picked the right company to plan our destination wedding. Everything was absolutely beautiful and we couldn't have asked for anything more. The Arbor set-up, shepherd hooks and chairs looked beautiful, and the back drop of the ocean, and sunset completed the perfect wedding. Walter did a wonderful job, and even ad-libbed to include my family from overseas via FaceTime. We felt like the ceremony was so personal, and the 2 of you played a huge part in that. Bill Giberson and I would recommend your company 100%, great job - thank you again.

I super love Mary Jo. She was sooooo helpful to me and Floyd. I literally called her a day before we arrived not only was she helpful but she was soooo detailed. We arrived early and she came and met us right away. If you ever plan on eloping don't hesitate to give them a call you will not regret. Thank you sooooo much Mary Jo.

Florida Nuptials is an amazing wedding vendor! They are very professional and provide excellent service! We were married on New Years Day 01/01/2018 and everything was perfect. Our officiant was Walter. He was dressed in the outfit we choose and spoke with passion! It is easy to see that both Walter and Mary Jo love being apart of your big day. They were extremely flexible as we needed to move our time up last minute. Mary responded friendly and quickly through the entire process.
We also choose to do the sand ceremony and I am 100% happy we did. We had three children that were involved in the sand ceremony and it was an extra special moment for our family! I also went with the medium photography package! I can't wait to see the pictures as Mary has great ideas and went out in the freezing cold on the beach and took her time to get the best shots. I do be mean freezing! She is a dedicated professional wedding photographer and vendor. I highly recommend. The prices are more than reasonable too! Thank you both for an amazing wedding

Had a wedding june 8th 2017 but originally scheduled for june 6th but I had to change it due to weather. Mary was very helpful with the change and the house process of changing the wedding to the last picture was taken all exceeded my expecatations. Very impressed.

Mary Jo and Walter made our wedding fantastic. We got exactly what we wanted... a nice intimate simple but elegant beach wedding. I had researched a lot of companies that wanted an arm and a leg for a deposit and ceremony. Florida Nuptials was by far the best price and worth every penny! Mary Jo is who I spoke with primarily and she is more than helpful! She also did our photography that day a was sweet enough to send us a sneak peek of some photos. Walter, who performed our ceremony was so personable and professional. He didn't mind our 3 year old diggin in the sand all around him during the ceremony. BOTH Mary Jo and Walter made our wedding memorable and enjoyable.

My fiance and I were trying to plan a beach wedding from a state other than where the wedding would be held. Mary Jo was very helpful in giving us options for locations, times, etc. She smoothed all my jittery bride nerves and helped me feel very confident in the whole process. Our wedding was wonderful. Walter performed an absolutely beautiful ceremony and the photos Mary Jo took are beautiful! This is from someone who hates having her picture made. I am so proud of them! I highly recommend Florida Nuptials to anyone wanting a simple, yet beautiful and very affordable beach wedding.
