It's always a pleasure to be back at the beautiful Palm Island Resort! With its gentle sea breezes, breathtaking Gulf views, and laid back Old Florida vibe, Palm Island Resort is the perfect destination for your unforgettable wedding day.
Palm Island is a majestic private island resort located just south of Sarasota. The staff are always excellent to work with and we always look forward to playing at Palm Island. Thank you Amy and Lisa for the hospitality and we look forward to many events in the future.
I had the great pleasure of officiating a wedding at Palm Island Resort this last October. The surroundings were wonderful, pristine beaches and old Florida charm. But, it was the staff that really made the day. Professional and accommodating. If you are planning a wedding don't hesitate to contact their staff. You will be well taken care of. I look forward to working with them again.
