Perfect venue in the perfect location!

I don't know where to start- but I have to say that Gwen is an ABSOLUTE angel on earth. From the moment we met Gwen and toured the venue, we knew we had found the place and our event coordinator. We immediately fell in love with the Harbourside lawn and ballroom, and of course, Gwen. Her communication throughout our year of planning was impeccable and she never let me stress one thing! She answered emails almost immediately, and she made sure our wedding went on without a hiccup. Part of the reason we loved this place so much was because of her, she is a HUGE asset to the Longboat Key Club. Everything about this place was beautiful, including our ocean front bridal suite. From the ceremony on the lawn overlooking the marina, to cocktail hour on the terrace, to dinner in the ballroom- I wish we could get married here all over again. Would HIGHLY recommend!! :)

the best day!!

My husband and I just got married at the Resort at Longboat Key Club in April 2024 and we could not recommend this venue more! Both our ceremony and reception space blew us and all of our guests away. Ayla and Sonja were so responsive and able to answer any of our questions. We even switched our ceremony location 5 days before our wedding and everyone was able to take care of the little details! We live in Michigan so our wedding was a destination for all of our guests and it was the perfect vacation for our loved ones. It has been 2 weeks since our perfect day and our family and friends can't stop talking about how amazing it was! The food is incredible, everyone was raving about it! Our wedding here was truly better than we could have ever imagined!

The absolute best!

There really are too many great things to say about Gwen and her team at The Resort at Longboat Key Club! Everyone was absolutely amazing and truly made all of our wedding dreams come true. Gwen in particular was always professional and extremely helpful in navigating the many aspects of our entire wedding weekend--always with a smile on her face. We wish we could do it all over again! Thank you Gwen and the rest of the team at LBKC!

Ayla and the wedding team at the Longboat Key Club were an absolutely joy to work with! They definitely went the extra mile for our brides. The beach here is very easy to access for wedding days, and the natural dune area makes a beautiful backdrop for wedding photography. The rooms look great for getting ready photos- with large windows and balconies that give you and your bridesmaids plenty of space to start your wedding day in style. I also loved the harborside ballroom- with its cocktail lawn, large verandas for seating and the indoor space has a beautiful open beam ceiling. I can't wait to work with the Longboat Key Club team again this summer!
