We loved our Sand Sculpture!

I really wanted to write this review to let anyone considering a sand sculpture for their wedding know — do it! It was such a highlight and such a unique part of our wedding in Key West. We worked with Marianne on the design, and she was wonderful to collaborate with, helping us include personal details that made it feel so us. Thank you again for adding something so beautiful and memorable to our day. @joshua_kane_photography

Beautiful custom sand sculpture

Marianne was great and communication was fast and easy! She created the most amazing sand sculpture for our wedding in Key West. She incorporated all of our design requests. I can’t stress enough how cool and unique this is to add for your wedding. Highly recommend!!

Marianne from Just Sand and Water was such a pleasure to work with. We used her sand sculpture for our reception at Casa Marina and placed our escort cards which were message in bottles on the table where it was located. Everyone loved it and it came out so beautiful. Marianne was always very responsive and open to any suggestions. If you want to add a unique touch to an event I highly recommend Just Sand and Water!

Marianne was absolutely wonderful to work with. I gave her a broad idea, and she drew up a great sketch. The final sculpture was amazing! We had so many compliments, and it was a great place to take photos during the wedding. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

Marianne was simply fabulous! Our daughter had seen her work previously and wanted a sand sculpture for her wedding day. Marianne took special elements that were important to the bride and groom and included them in her sculpture! Absolutely incredible!!

We hired Marianne of Sandisle to design and build a sand sculpture for our daughter's wedding at the Casa Marina Resort Key West. Amazing in every regard. She is a true artist (I call her a Picasso with Sand) and a true professional. We received compliments on her work throughout the weekend and beyond! Just give her a few ideas and watch her create. Did I mention a tireless worker. The work covered three days, and on the principal day of construction she started before 8am and continued well past 6pm, with only a few water breaks. During construction, she faced a horrendous Key West thunderstorm/downpour - she reacted quickly with umbrellas and plastic to save her work without any damage. She also took the extra effort to ensure her work was protected overnight before the big event. On top of all this, she maintained her smile and pleasantness every step of the way. If you are considering hiring Marianne for your event, please don't hesitate. Her art will give your event that special touch it deserves...worth every dollar she charged...a special memory for sure. This was a surprise for our daughter that she (and everyone) loved! Thank you Marianne!

The 84' Azimut Flybridge Yacht replica sand sculpture was fantastic!! We had two clients at the event who picked up their brand new 84' yachts just weeks before our event and we excited to see it on display. It created a lot of buzz!
