Where do we even start?! Having a wedding in the times of COVID could’ve been stressful, but Jackie at First Flight made it feel like any normal time for wedding planning. She was so helpful and kind and organized. When we had to postpone from April to December, Jackie made it so easy! She is such an expert! She made sure to give us all of her recommendations to fill our wedding with love in the middle of a pandemic when it felt like nothing else could go right. Planning a wedding from across the country could’ve been difficult but it was so simple with all of her help. When the week came, Jackie and Bobby spent 4 days helping us and entertaining us to make sure the day would be perfect! The wedding was absolutely gorgeous and not a single thing didn’t happen as planned. I’ve heard that at least one thing will go wrong at your wedding - but every single thing about our wedding was perfect thanks to First Flight and the entire team. Jackie wasn’t just a great coordinator that day, she also made sure we ate, drank and had an enjoyable time ourselves! She doesn’t know it yet but she’s for sure stuck with us as friends for life. I actually didn’t get to try the coconut shrimp at our wedding so we went back the following day to see if we could try it, and even though it wasn’t on the menu Bobby made it special for us. The service, food, drinks, just everything was so fantastic and I couldn’t imagine spending our wedding at any other venue with any other people!

First Flight = First Class
I would recommend First Flight (and Jackie!!!) to anyone considering any sort of event in Key West. We had a wedding planned for the rooftop in June 2020, which sadly had to be rescheduled and eventually cancelled, but oh my goodness at the level of service Jackie provided as we went through each phase of the chaos. I was extremely pleased with the flexibility and attention to detail and her willingness to work with us (even pre-COVID) on adjusting details based on what we wanted to do for our ceremony. Post-cancellation of the full event, we still made a trip to Key West, and Jackie very graciously invited us to have dinner at First Flight one night so I can say that the venue is incredibly romantic and the food and drinks were excellent. We plan to have an anniversary celebration in Key West eventually and Jackie will be the first person I call.

Exceptional Event!
Jackie and her team at First Flight are absolutely amazing! She made planning a wedding in 2020 (originally scheduled for April and rescheduled in December) absolutely stress free. Our guests were blown away by the cool venue, the phenomenal food and drinks, and the service. We will forever be thankful for Jackie and First Flight for a magical day, that far exceeded expectations!
