Our wedding at The Lightner Museum was truly everything we dreamed of and more. From the moment we chose this venue, we knew it was special, but seeing it come to life on our wedding day was absolutely breathtaking. The architecture, the historic charm, the grand staircase, and the stunning ambiance created the most romantic and unforgettable setting. So many of our guests told us it was the best wedding they have ever attended and one of the most beautiful venues they have ever seen, and we couldn’t agree more. Working with Ashley E., our event manager, was such a joy. She was incredibly professional, organized, and attentive, yet always warm and kind throughout the entire planning process. She made us feel supported every step of the way and handled every detail with such care and confidence. I always felt like we were in the best hands. The Treasury Events team alongside Ashley executed everything flawlessly. From the flow of the evening to the small details that made the space feel magical, everything was seamless. They didn’t just host our wedding — they truly brought our vision to life. If you are looking for a wedding venue that is timeless, elegant, and unforgettable, The Lightner Museum is unmatched. We are so grateful to Ashley and the entire team for making our dream wedding a reality.

The wedding was everything we imagined for a perfect outdoor garden wedding. In April the flowers were in bloom and everyone enjoyed the gardens and setup. Everything was setup perfect for our big day.

Everything about our experience was so amazing, I'm not sure where to begin! I chose St. Augustine for its history, so the Villa Zorayda was a top choice for me right away. When compared to every single other venue in town (and I got price quotes from most, especially historic venues), the Villa Zorayda is very affordable. Not only that, but it is a gorgeous and unique venue with a fascinating history. Next, I started working with Olivia and Marcia. They are both so sweet and attentive. We communicated mostly via email, and they were very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the planning process. The venue fee includes their guidance as well as their services on the day of the ceremony, making it an even better value! We were able to bring in all our own staff, but used their recommended photographer, Ashley Graham, who I also highly recommend. They have a nice little room where you can put on your dress and get photos before the ceremony too. And the price includes a rehearsal! The only downsides I could see would be that only 20 seats can be provided due to the historic artifacts and you cannot have a reception there. However, we had 8 of our guests standing on the balcony during the ceremony, and they could hear everything perfectly and didn't mind it at all. Our entire experience exceeded expectations. I highly recommend the Villa Zorayda for your wedding!

We loved the Fatio house for our reception. Our wedding was smaller than originally planned and the space felt perfectly intimate. The gardens were beautiful and lush, even in November. I highly recommend string lights over the dance floor area, it gives the area such a romantic atmosphere.
