Congrats to Cayci and Trent who hosted a dream Destin wedding in June 2016 – it began with a beach wedding followed by a sunset reception on the SOLARIS yacht wedding venue. From beach to bay, they celebrated with the ultimate wedding in Destin Florida, using two of the most memorable wedding venues – the beach and a 125 foot yacht. The SunQuest Cruises wedding planners worked with Cayci and Trent from Nashville to make their dream wedding vision come to life. Having the SunQuest Cruises wedding team plan everything from the beach wedding in Destin to the yacht reception in Sandestin made it a seamless and stress free process.

Congrats to Alyson and Josh on their Destin wedding celebration on the SOLARIS yacht in Sandestin - picture perfect day in paradise in December.

Your Destin event coordinator will help you design the perfect occasion including menu selections, venue choices, linens selection, decorating options, centerpieces, photographers, lighting, music, wedding cake selections and more.

Easiest wedding planning process and most perfect wedding I could have ever imagined!

I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Sunquest Cruises and every person I worked with or encountered from the company throughout the wedding planning process and the wedding day itself. From day one, they were always so thoughtful, helpful and never missed a beat. Once we got paired with our wedding planner, Courtney, I told her that I had pretty much no clue what I was doing, but had a color scheme and general idea of what we wanted; to say she made our vision come to life is an understatement. I don't know how many times I told her, "Courtney, it's like you can read my mind!" Every single detail was flawless and perfectly represented what we wanted as a couple. The flowers were just about the most beautiful florals I've ever seen, the food was INCREDIBLE, the in-house DJs were so fun and sweet, the wait staff on board was kind and attentive, our day of coordinator, Jeremy, was a helpful and calming presence, and overall the day was just perfect. Our guests truly were raving about every aspect of the event. I'm so thrilled we chose Sunquest for our wedding, and I will never forget how special it was.

Dream Destin Wedding

SunQuest Cruises gave us our DREAM wedding experience in Destin! Their entire team made us feel held and celebrated throughout the entire planning process, and especially on the day of. We opted for a beach ceremony before the yacht reception and we were blown away at their team's professionalism and care. Our two day of coordinators, Christy and Angela, were so incredibly sweet and kept the details that we planned with our planner, Courtney, to a T! We are looking forward to coming back to celebrate on the yacht for anniversaries in the future! Thank you again!

Beautiful Waterfront Wedding

If you're looking for a waterfront wedding in Destin, the yacht is for you! We chose the Solaris as our wedding venue because of the privacy that the yacht offered. We loved the idea of having our ceremony our on the water rather than on a busy beach. Our wedding planning experience was a dream. I wish we could relive our day over and over again!
