Amazing ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We eloped (just us - no guests!) to Desin from Pittsburgh, PA and had the BEST experience. Maggie was super responsive ahead of time, answered a million questions and was SO kind. It rained during our ceremony and she was willing to reschedule our pictures but the rain stopped and we were able to sneak them in. The flowers were AMAZING, the officiant was also very nice, and the location was perfect. We were married on Wed and had access to all photos (also amazing!) on Sat.

I'd give Barefoot Weddings a million stars if I could! I recommend to anyone looking into a beach wedding in Destin!

Wonderful staff. They made our wedding day so special.

Kim served as an exceptional wedding coordinator for our beach ceremony. The entire staff demonstrated remarkable professionalism,Richard, and our photographer, captured every moment flawlessly. They meticulously managed all arrangements, including our license and permits, exceeding our expectations in every aspect. Their precision and dedication to our requests were truly commendable. The sand ceremony, featuring a glass heart, was a particularly beautiful and memorable touch. We highly recommend their services for anyone planning a wedding in Destin or the surrounding region.

Wonderful experience

Maggie was wonderful to work with, she literally saved our day when another company tried to scam us. We had about 2 weeks to prepare and she eased our stress and made our day perfect!

Very reassuring and responsive through the whole process. They thought of things we didn’t. Our day couldn’t have turned out more beautiful. Hiring Barefoot Weddings took a lot of stress out of planning. Highly recommend!

Maggie and her entire team were not only professional but also kind and hardworking, led by Maggie who is the most sweetest and caring person.

Amazing, easy, beautiful

Everything was beautiful. They made it all so easy. I had no idea how to even begin to plan a beach wedding. They did everything. All I had to worry about was our clothes and the license. They took care of everything else.

Amazing! Amazing! Amazing

My wedding was so beautiful. Maggie was such a joy to work with. I hate that the planning is over. Every time I went to see her, it was like talking to a friend I’ve known for years. She was in constant contact with me every step of the way. Her pricing is very reasonable. The officiant was lovely and the photographer did an awesome job. I just loved everything about working with barefoot weddings. Nothing was rushed and everything was organized! If you’re not booked with barefoot weddings , you need to book with them.
