We fell in love with Destin when we first time visiting there. When we picking up wedding venue, we went to a couple places in the country and ended up with choosing Hilton Sandestin as the one. Sarah is super sweet to work with. She's super patient and enthusiastic girl. Her personality is a great fit for what you do. I don’t remember how many questions I asked, I don’t know how many emails we have exchanged, I don’t know how even she could handle all these! She is so GOOD!
The venue is so gorgeous and perfect for holding a small to medium sized wedding. Blue sky, emerald water plus white sand, everything is just as amazing as it can be! All the people on site are absolutely hospitable and nice. They provided the best service ever.
It's the wedding venue I would strongly recommend to everybody!

We could not be more pleased with our experience at the Hilton Sandestin! We had a beach ceremony with an indoor reception in the Emerald Ballroom on 8/25/18!! Everything was perfect! Every vendor far exceeded our expectations and Sarah Wandall with the Hilton made everything come together seamlessly! We are from Louisiana and booked our wedding sight unseen. We planned the entire wedding in 3.5 months, but you would’ve thought we had been planning it for a year based on the way everything turned out. We were so impressed with the venue, the food, the flowers, the day of coordinators, the DJ, the photographer... I could go on and on. If you are looking for a beautiful, elegant, low stress beach wedding, look no further!!!

The Sandestin Hilton was the perfect venue for our daughter's wedding. The service was wonderful. We had our rehearsal dinner and a sit down dinner for the reception. The presentation and the food was wonderful. It was a beautiful beach wedding and then we had the dinner and reception in the Coral Ballroom. It was amazing. The staff attended to our every need.

I would highly recommend the Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort and Spa as a venue for your destination wedding. Carol Juneau, our wedding coordinator was the first person we met at our initial visit to this venue. She was so professional and we immediately knew we were in good hands. Every step was explained clearly to us and she answered our many questions. Our phone calls and emails were returned in a timely manner which was important to us as we only had 6 months to plan this wedding. She put together a tasting that we were fortunate enough to enjoy and it was spectacular! We met the chef who was very kind to go over all of our food choices and wedding cake selections. You will have many food choices and packages at different price points to fit your budget. The wedding ceremony and reception were held in the Coral Ballroom. Both the set ups for the ceremony and reception were incredibly Beautiful and went absolutely perfectly! The food was delicious the presentation was spot on and the wedding cake was gorgeous not to mention tasted heavenly! The drinks and music continued to be enjoyed all throughout the evening:) All went as planned with Carol, her entire staff at the Hilton including the in-house reservationists and with our Serenity Spa appointments . The wedding was on time and went so smoothly thanks to Carol and Kristi our wedding planner. We were actually even a little ahead of our time line schedule:) We enjoyed this wedding celebration so much that we wish we could do it all again:)) You will surely enjoy all that the resort has to offer including the restaurants, the pools, the gorgeous beaches and all that Florida Sunshine!

Erin Story is absolutely wonderful! She helped us pull off the wedding of our dreams, completely exceeding all of our expectations! The venue was absolutely breathtaking, the catering was fabulous, the spa for my hair and makeup was better than I could have hoped for. Erin was able to help us every step of the way, answering all of our questions and helping us navigate the entire experience. And the catering - our guests are still raving about the food at our wedding! Linda Sherman in the spa was so helpful in getting all of the spa services scheduled for me and my bridal party and made the experience so relaxing.

The Hilton Sandestin is a beautiful spot to have a wedding. All of the brides seem very pleased with the service they receive from the wedding planners and staff at the Hilton. When I arrive on-location to perform HMUA services for my brides and bridal party, I always receive the best service from the staff and all the workers there. I would definitely recommend them.

I love performing weddings at Hilton Sandestin! Everyone is nice, helpful, and professional. There is nothing like a venue located right on the beaches of our beautiful Emerald Coast. Hilton Sandestin provides both outdoor and indoor locations for receptions which is very convenient. I enjoy being a part of weddings here because I know they will be done correctly. I recommend this venue to all engaged couples looking to have a top-notch beach wedding.
