History
Palafox Wharf Waterfront was originally built in 1880 a portion of which was using wood from American Liberty Ships. It was originally used as a shipping company, whose ships sailed the Carribean. Two elements of one of those Ships (named the American Eagle) is quietly and discretly blended into the structure of the Venue. It has been renovated into an unique mix of a current updated feel with warmness to create a great vibe to hold wedding and events.

Perfect Venue
I can’t imagine our reception being anywhere else! The moment we stepped into Palafox Wharf Waterfront, we knew we wanted to have our reception there. The entire venue, and grounds are so gorgeous day and night. The deck was perfect for cocktail hour and for guests to enjoy the waterfront sunset views. The inside was so clean and beautiful, all the wood details and romantic lighting were stunning. It truly made for the wedding of our dreams! So much of that was possible thanks to Sandy, the owner. Her speedy communication, and genuinely sweet and helpful personality, made the entire process so easy and enjoyable. We are also super grateful for Neil, their in-house planner/coordinator. He ensured every last detail was better than we could have ever imagined. We are so grateful that this venue was such an integral part of our favorite day!

Great Christmas Party
Our firm had our Christmas party at this venue last year. It was a wonderful experience. The venue is beautiful! Sandy was very responsive and very helpful with all of our needs. She made suggestions that really helped our process. The caterer that we used was recommended by Sandy and his food was fabulous! This venue and Sandy made our firm Christmas party one of the best.
