My wedding would not be what it was if it was not for KATY & the coastal coordinating staff…read more Katy was simply made for this role. She is professional, timely and communicative. Additionally, she makes you FEEL like you are the only bride she is working with, which makes you feel at peace, prioritized, and cared for throughout chaotic wedding planning! Katy doesn't miss a step during timeline creation, last minute changes, or day of the event. In fact, during the day of my wedding, I sent most of my family out of the "hiding room" and felt comfortable when she was in the room because she was alongside me during the wedding planning process and made me feel a sense of ease. THAT is the type of wedding planner you want, especially if the whole "planning process" isn't your thing (like me ;)). Lastly, Katy handled vendor communication incredibly well. From reaching out, to follow ups, to ensuring all vendors were on the same page (especially if they did not respond) which took a layer off of my responsibilities. Okay actually lastly - Katy does not see this role or you as a bride as her "job" or just another "client". When I mentioned I was "stressed", she sat with me on the phone to talk things through to see what holes she could fill so I could relax. Coastal Coordinating is without a doubt, the wedding planning service you NEED!! I have already referred her to my friends and will continue to do so!

I opted in for the Day of Coordinator because I had already selected all of my other vendors. I also paid extra to have Coastal Coordinating put out my florals that I created. Chloe was MIA minutes before the ceremony - the venue had to stick me in a random room to avoid being seen by the groom. Chloe or one of her helpers broke one of my pillars (decor) and proceeded to put it in the ceremony instead of informing me or leaving it out - it looked so awful. Half the florals I had arranged for the reception weren't put out despite paying extra for this service - my bridesmaids and I were the ones having to put them out while guests were lining up to enter the space. The owner is VERY unprofessional and never bothered trying to have a conversation with me about my experience. Instead she made up lies as an excuse for providing such poor service. I did not have a single problem with any of my other vendors. Would not recommend Coastal Coordinating.

We had a contract with them for a beach wedding. I cannot get in contact with them! I went as far as emailing and calling and leaving voicemails. Jason Wheeler will ignore you after he gets your money! Florida wedding professionals? It's the most unprofessional "business" ever! What is suppose to be your happiest day ever in life will leave you stressed to the max and scammed. My wedding was suppose to be on July 4th. No emails, calls or anything. Save your money and book elsewhere. Make sure you read lots of reviews too. Sad that people like this have to take away from your suppose to be special experience. Also would like to add that I should have read more reviews on this place before booking, it would have saved me a lot of time and money.

Cooked to perfection, super tender and the homemade mint jam was amazing! After dinner, we headed out to the outside bar and it was such a great way to end the evening. Highly recommend if you're looking for a nice dinner with great service!

Sometimes the pirates on board just arent as enthusiastic and entertaining. They dont allow kids up top at the drinking deck which is cool.
