My daughter's wedding at Ocean Key was so beautiful. Everything went very smoothly. Stephanie and Katherine made it so easy!! They were terrific to work with - very accommodating, never seemed stressed, pleasant and professional. It was easy planning this destination wedding. I would suggest asking for their opinion on florists, bands,djs, etc. They have done many weddings here and know what works and doesn't work. We had the wedding, cocktail hour and reception all on the pier for 150 people. It wasn't crowded at all. The sunset was beautiful and the sailboats floating by added to the wonderful view. Everyone said it was the best, most fun wedding they have ever gone to.

Ocean Key Resort and Spa was the perfect choice for our destination wedding. The location was beautiful and the staff was extremely professional. There was on server in particular that was fantastic. Oleg thank you for everything! He was there for my bridal brunch and reception and went above and beyond. Words can not describe the service of Stephanie Happ. The Ocean Key is a great place to have a wedding but she makes the wedding happen flawlessly. Thank you Stephanie!!!

The Girls at Ocean Key are not only Amazing! But they make the whole process almost effortless! I could not have asked for a better day! The food was amazing and everything was set just how we wanted it.....It was EXACTLY how we envisioned it!! We had a great time! I would 100% Recommend Ocean Key if you are looking for that Tropical Keys Feel. Between the Pier, Ocean Breeze and the occasional Schooner going by it was an experience that would be unmatched anywhere else! Thank You Again For Everything!

We could not have been happier with Ocean Key Resort! Everything surrounding our event and trip both before, during and after our wedding was smooth and professional. Our contacts at Ocean Key, Stephanie and Katherine were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Extremely helpful, responsive, organized, accommodating...everything you would want in people that you looked to for help and advice with your wedding, and more!
The guidance they provided before the wedding made us very comfortable and feeling at ease that everything was in order for the big day. When we and our guests arrived at Ocean Key the service was fabulous. Not one guest had a single negative thing to say about the rooms or staff. Everyone raved about the location and how beautiful, modern and clean the rooms were. (You know there is always AT LEAST one complainer in a group...not a single one on this occasion, everyone was completely satisfied). The staff was helpful, very friendly/professional and knowledgeable. And last but not least, the location was awesome!! If you are in Key West 0 Duval Street is by far the best place to stay.
When it came to the wedding, it could not have gone better! I cannot say enough great things about having our wedding at Ocean Key.
The pier location was a gorgeous and intimate setting for our ceremony and reception! I think that using the recommended vendor list that Stephanie and Katherine provided was key in working with reliable and great vendors. Anytime I let them know what were were looking for in a DJ, photographer, etc they gave great advice. The food provided by Ocean Key was AWESOME and all of the Ocean Key staff that worked during our wedding was great.
I would recommend Ocean Key to anyone that is looking to have a memorable, fun and beautiful wedding!

Stephanie, Katherine and the staff at the Ocean Key Resort were amazing to work with. They are professional, responsive, and courteous and went above and beyond to make our wedding experience exactly what we had hoped it would be. We had a beautiful wedding that guests have not stopped talking about. The Pier at the Ocean Key is the most unique venue in Key West offering the best views of sunset. And the food is delicious! I cannot recommend the Ocean Key enough. Stephanie is a complete pleasure to work with - she's really on the ball and does not let a single detail get dropped. You will be so happy you chose them.

Having my wedding ceremony and reception at Ocean Key was the BEST decision I've ever made. The entire staff was amazing and made my special day absolutely perfect. Everyone was friendly, helpful, kind to my guests ... I could go on and on. The food and drinks were fabulous and the venue is so unique. All of my guests have been raving to me that my wedding was the best one they have ever been to! The day was so perfect that I never wanted it to end. Thank you Ocean Key!!

Everything at Ocean Key turned out to be amazing, from planning with Stephanie to the execution of our ceremony and reception. I would definitely recommend working with them--you will not be disappointed.

From the beginning, Stephanie was very easy to work with, full of ideas and suggestions as we planned from afar. When we arrived in Key West, everything was prepared and ready to go, including a great bottle of champagne to greet us in our room (which was amazing, by the way). The ceremony location by the pool was perfect for our 45 person event and the staff moved umbrellas into location to provide shade on a cloudless day.

The reception went off without a hitch, and we had great personalized service from everyone. Our glasses were never empty, and the food was excellent. The staff was courteous and really went out of their way to make the event wonderful for us and our guests.

Everything about the Ocean Key is top shelf, including Stephanie, the Catering Manager.

As the groom, I planned everything myself. As you can imagine I knew absolutely nothing about planning a wedding. Stephanie was patient, helpful and mindful to the idea that I began this journey with no clue.

My new wife and I couldn't have been happier!

I just had my ceremony and reception at Ocean Key and couldn't be happier with the way everything turned out! The service, food and bar was fantastic. Stephanie Happ was always so quick to respond to any question I had and was always willing to make an adjustment when necessary. Our guests had such a great time and most of them are planning a return trip to Key West. My husband and I will definitely be returning to the Ocean Key for our first anniversary!

They completely spoiled us. We didn't want to leave!

Our guests loved it and are already making reservations for next year to celebrate our first anniversary!

Stephanie is an *amazing* part of the Ocean Key experience! Without her, I don't think we would have booked with the resort. Although the property and venue are absolutely breathtaking and stunningly gorgeous, it's truly her customer service that cinches the deal. She's quick to respond to any problem or situation that comes up (literally, emails get answered within the hour almost always)...she goes above and beyond to provide you with the most perfect wedding day ever (thank you for clearing up our room booking situation on Friday night). Don't think twice about booking your wedding here...the pier is beautiful, the food is delicious, the view unparalleled and Stephanie is a total rockstar. Two thumbs up!

As I originally posted on Yelp.com (http://www.yelp.com/biz/ocean-key-resort-key-west#hrid:RmkKFHgPXQ_A60w8649L1Q):

Ocean Key, where do I start with you? For those of you that follow my reviews, you already know that Key West is a special place for me and my wife and Ocean Key had a big hand in that.

While we were on a mission to find the perfect location to get hitched we went to talk with Stephanie at Ocean Key and not only is the property freakin' gorgeous, but their Group Sales & Catering Manager is the best in the business. Once, in a crappier version of my life, I worked at the famous Fontainebleau Resort in Miami Beach and Las Vegas and those peeps could learn a thing or two from Stephanie's School of Customer Service.

Our negotiations over our wedding package resembled something more like friends chatting about what their goals and wishes are rather than soulless business discussions. When the day finally came to get married she was on top of EVERYTHING, even the details that we managed to let slip through the cracks. One thing that stands out to me, the newly minted Mrs. Jones and I were so caught up with the evening that at the end of the night we completely forgot our champagne toasting flutes and guess who had collected them from the pier and had them for us the next day? Stephanie and her team.

She hooked us up in a perfect room overlooking the Gulf of Mexico as well as the Pier where our party was to take place. Honestly, there isn't anything bad that I can say about the experience (which I can always find SOMETHING) and as far as the wedding goes, I'm biased because it was my wedding but nearly ALL of our guests told us that it was *the* best wedding they've ever been to. That's saying a lot because we've got some snooty-ass friends. ;)

What's Good:
- Being greeted by a Make Your Own Mojito amenity in our room
- Maxin' relaxin' massages in the Ocean Key Spa.
- Stephanie and her catering team
- How easy the wedding planning and setup went.

What's Ugly:
- I've got nothing for you, sorry. :)

Stephanie and Katherine at Ocean Key were a pleasure to work with. From the moment I emailed them about available wedding dates to the wedding day itself, they were very helpful and answered all of my questions. Planning a destination wedding is difficult, but they recommended some great vendors and that put my mind at ease. The food at Ocean Key was amazing and the price was very reasonable considering the package we got included open bar with premium liquor, passed hors dourves and a 3 course meal. The location speaks for itself. If you want to get married in a fun place with an amazing backdrop, Ocean Key should be your first choice.

The Ocean Key Resort along with a local wedding planner will provide you with a perfect experience. The presence of a wedding planner will take the pressure and unnecessary drama out of the wedding not only for the bride and groom but for the parents as well. The quality of service offered by the Ocean Key Resort was outstanding, down to the smallest detail. They catered to our every need. The Resort was truly first class!

My husband and I are from Texas, so it was a bit difficult planning a wedding in Key West. We did not did stay at the Ocean Key Resort, but we did have our reception at the resort's restaurant, the Hot Tin Roof. The resort's events caterers stayed in constant contact with us and answered any questions along the way. The reception was decorated beautifully and our waiter did a fantastic job attending to our guests and ourselves. The manager maintained a constant presence and the food was absolutely delicious. All in all, we highly recommend the Hot Tin Roof for a wedding reception!

Ocean Key Resort & Spa was the perfect place for our wedding! They catered to our every need, helped us with every question or doubts we had, and exceeded our expectations on our special day! Stephanie Happ was absolutely amazing, along with her partners Katherine and Helen! The staff was very professional and helpful, the cook was out of this world, it was simply perfect! All of our guests were constantly approaching us telling us that this was the best meal they've ever had at a wedding, that it was beautiful, and we chose the perfect spot! Thanks again Ocean Key! We would do it 100 times over!!!
