The lake and woods create an atmosphere of relaxation and is wonderful for photos. There are a few cabins by the lake for overnight stays.

So let me share with you: The building is a nice small, cottage looking from the outside.

Large tree shadowing a large fire pit area for hanging out and talking after whatever event you decide to book for this place. Building itself has a small closet, kitchen area. We had about 40 people in there with a gift table and treats table and it was nice. Perfect for a small birthday/anniversary party, fantasy football draft, group meeting, etc. Nice and easy location, walking distance from Downtown Clermont.

I will begin by saying that our wedding was nothing short of a fairy tale. Although we found the…read moreperfect venue which happened to be on a beach, I still wanted a glamorous semi-formal Disney Princess-type of wedding. We live on the East coast of FL so having a wedding in Bradenton Beach was a destination wedding for us and although I had accomplished some things on my own, I knew I would need more help. I described what type of wedding I was imagining to our venue wedding coordinator and he pointed me to Priscila of My Storybook Party. I spoke to Priscila and the rest was history. She listens so well, is extremely organized, has many fantastic ideas, is kind, and truly cares about her brides (and grooms!). I don't know what I would have done without her. We traveled out to Sarasota at least 3 different times in the months leading up to the wedding and she would always coordinate appointments and meet or even drive us around the entire weekend. Yes, you read that right - she was with us the ENTIRE weekend from early in the morning until it got dark and that's in addition to spending hours with me on the phone. On to hair and makeup. Some would call me 'high maintenance' but hey, I know what I like. I have long curly hair that I'm used to spending 2-3hours washing, straightening then curling myself on an almost daily basis. I am also accustomed to spending around an hour doing my own makeup so a VERY good makeup and hair stylist were important to me and Priscila understood that. She found a lady that had at least like 15 years of experience in the wedding hair industry and booked me a trial. Initially, I thought I wanted a loose waterfall braid with hair teased at the top so the stylist tried, but she completely rushed through my trial and my hair ended up a frizzy mess. She said she would "practice" the braid since she was rusty and be better on my wedding day. Priscila paid attention, reassured me that I shouldn't just "go with" the stylist and that she would find someone for me because she wanted me to be confident that my hair would be perfect. She spent the next few months - YES MONTHS - searching for the perfect stylist. She called me to tell me she had found the perfect guy for the job and we made another appointment just a few months before my wedding. I sat in his chair and knew he was THE ONE that I could trust with my hair on our wedding day. We booked him and EVERYONE was impressed on our wedding day, but that's another review. Priscila also recommended a great makeup artist near our home on the East Coast that we ended up paying to come across the state for the day of our wedding. Décor - Priscila went out of her way to find rental companies for everything My Storybook Party did not have for rent. She tracked down so much - linens, tables, gold wood chivalry chairs (that would work on the beach), bling chandeliers, a tall chuppah, beaded chuppah curtains, tents, twinkle lights, and plate chargers. She also made sure to work with our venue coordinator to ensure we could get exactly what we wanted despite regulations/preferred vendor requirements/etc. Centerpieces - I looked everywhere and was on Pinterest for days looking for centerpiece ideas. I did not want the typical centerpiece with flowers and FINALLY found the bling pieces I had been looking for. Instead of renting I just bought everything I thought we needed, but we were short two big pieces due to last minute cancellations. Priscila spent hours going over options with me and taking pictures of how each table should be arranged. She also tracked down the last two pieces we needed - beautiful big bling candelabras that matched our other décor. She and her assistants set up the tables for us and broke them down immediately after the wedding. All of our pieces were neatly wrapped and packed in boxes and ready to travel. Every single piece I had was accounted for and unbroken. Day of - Priscila and her assistants ran around all day making sure everything was accounted for and in the right place. She also kept popping to check on me and ensure I was doing okay and everything was on schedule. She kept to a schedule and had every detail accounted for, down to the flip flop stations strategically placed for our guests to take their heels of if they didn't realize we'd be on the beach. The "extra" décor pieces we brought were placed around our reception area beautifully by Priscila. We had orchid strands on each chair on the aisle - she took them down and arranged the orchids around our beautiful cake after the ceremony. Did I mention our cake was just featured on Grace Ormonde Wedding Style? If you're planning a party big or small, call Priscila. She and her team will be right by your side every step of the way and ensure that you're 100% pleased with every single detail, whether you want to be as involved as I was in the process or if you trust her to run with everything. Our wedding was a dream come true & if you call her, yours will be too.

I hired Priscila from My StoryBook Party as a "month of" coordinator for my daughter's destination…read morewedding at the Crosley Estate in Sarasota, FL. What initially attracted me to Priscila was her calm presence and soft-spoken voice. I was primarily looking to hire someone to keep my daughter relaxed prior to the ceremony, as we have a handful of family members who can be quite stress invoking! What I soon found was that I had hired so much more than a "bride-sitter" and "stress guard". Priscila is focused and driven. She truly knows the wedding business inside and out. I found that she could be firm and authoritative when necessary. While gentle in demeanor, she's no pushover! Priscila was quick to reply to phone calls, email, and text messages. She is full of interesting suggestions - things I never would have thought of. She referred us to several local vendors, who were not only professional, but I found to be very reasonably priced. She gladly intervened with a couple of issues that cropped up last minute, keeping the stress from my daughter. She coordinated with all of our other vendors, and created a master timeline for the entire wedding day. We were able to drop off all of our wedding items with Priscila in Sarasota a week prior to the wedding; so we didn't have to run anything to the venue on the day of. She and her team set up all of our wedding décor for us, and had all of it repacked and in our cars by the time the reception was over. Priscila truly understands that a wedding day is so much more than "just another day". With the timeline in place, there were no worries for any of the bridal party on the day of the wedding. Everyone was notified where they needed to be and at what time, and from there, Priscila and her assistants took over. Our only job on the day of the wedding was to be present. My daughter's wedding day was seamless, allowing everyone to focus on what was truly important - FAMILY! I would only do one thing differently if I had to do it over. I'd hire Priscila to handle to entire affair, instead of just the "month of" coordinating. I now understand that the money that you spend on the right wedding coordinator actually saves you so much in the long run! Thank you, Priscila Radke-Neves and My StoryBook Party! You were a breath of fresh air and felt like family by the time the wedding rolled around. You were a joy to work with!

What an amazing venue!…read more Went here to celebrate my cousins wedding on 11/7 & while I was originally confused as to who has their wedding as early as he did, it all made sense when we arrived. The way the sunrise shines on lake Bryan is breathtaking. The dewy palm trees, friendly staff, gorgeous decor, the sand and beach seats while we waiting to be seated in the ceremony area- everything was chefs kiss! My daughter even said "mommy when you get married it's gotta be here" lol I was thankful to see the ceremony area has a soft turf so that heels going into the sand weren't an issue at all. The only thing I'd say negative is that thankfully we were the first wedding guests and could sit in the beach chairs in the sand facing the lake while we waiting for the Turf area to open - the guests that arrived after us had nowhere to sit & wait. Overall, amazing ceremony (as expected) this location was the cherry on top., Parking: was a bit tight. We ubered from our resort which was about 15 min away (with traffic). I'd suggest ubering or carpooling if utilizing this wedding/event space!

Originally we ordered lighting for the band we had booked, then it was suggested we add pin spots for our tall centerpieces to be proudly displayed (as they should for the $$ you spend on them, right?!).

In the end, happy we added the uplighting and happy the sound/lighting tech's were on-site ensuring everything presented well and remained functioning.

Wonderful experience having a fancy picnic in my backyard with friends for my birthday yesterday. I…read morebooked the basic package for two and added four more people. I also added a teepee, a hot tea set up and the photographer. The photographer was scheduled to be there for an hour only, but showed up almost 30 mins before my party time was scheduled and some of my friends were nearly 30 mins late, so the photographer was asking if I wanted her to stay for 15 mins until they came so she did and we took pics for a few minutes. It would've been better if she had shown up right when the party was scheduled instead of earlier since my guests had not yet arrived and the picnic wasn't completely set up yet so I feel like I should have had more time with the photographer. I have not seen the photos yet (was told up to two weeks to receive them) so I may update my review then. The decor and set up was beautiful. There was a little wind, so i was told that there were "things" they wanted to set up but didn't because of the weather. Not sure what those items were but that's ok. They provided cups, plates and napkins, however no utensils are included so be sure to make plans for that. I ordered charcuterie boards from a separate company and since I hosted this picnic at my house I was lucky to have access to my kitchen and provide utensils for my guests. I found it a little odd that everything but utensils were provided. Overall this was a good event and I would recommend this company to others looking for a similar experience.
