    We loved working with Tiffani and having our wedding at Gulf Place. We booked all our wedding party rooms on the grounds too and I cannot say enough good things about the ability to have all your venues in walking distance from everyone's room. The green is absolutely beautiful at night and having the tent, tables and chairs rental included is great for people on a budget. The arbor that GP provides is simple, but perfect for the setting. Tiffani was always responsive in emails and knew my wedding planner, so that made communication between them easy. We experienced an ownership change during our planning phase, which I got an email making me aware of, but Tiffani handled everything and I honestly never worried about anything as far as venue goes. She got the ball rolling on the info needed to get rooms booked, too. The beach was beautiful! Absolutely stunning! My biggest request was a private beach, which this was, but I guess there is no way to prevent some people who lack respect from intruding (i.e. the guy who walked his dog about 5 feet behind our arbor, the kid who threw a football where our guests were seated). Overall I am very pleased with the venue here and the customer service we received from Tiffani. She even made her way down on the day of to say hi, which was very special!

    We had the best experience with 30-A Weddings at Gulf Place! Tiffani was incredibly helpful through the entire process and we were able to utilize her services as our wedding coordinator, which I would highly recommend as well. Our ceremony was on the beach and reception at the Greens at Gulf Place. Both locations were absolutely beautiful and far exceeded all expectations. This is one of the most affordable and flexible vendors we contacted in the area and after having our wedding here I can't imagine having a better turnout using any other vendor. Tiffani loves her job and that shows through in her work! Needless to say I would highly recommend 30A Weddings at Gulf Place to future brides :)

    My daughter's wedding was held at Gulf Place, the ceremony was on the beach and the reception was held at the Greens of Gulf Place. Tiffani Salinas was our coordinator and was amazing to work with. She responded quickly each time we emailed or called with questions and was the ultimate professional. Both the ceremony and reception were beautiful. We got multiple comments from our guests stating what a gorgeous evening it was. For a beach wedding on 30-A it was affordable without being "cheap". The ulimate compliment came from my daughter, who like most brides had very specific expectations about her wedding. Her comment was, "The wedding at Gulf Place completely exceeded my expectations of my dream wedding!" We would highly recommend Tiffani and having a wedding at Gulf Place!

    Our wedding at Gulf Place was truly everything that we ever dreamed of! It was absolutely beautiful and the reception was so much fun! Everyone, from the babies to the grandparents, had the best time! We had the most beautiful weather for our wedding day. I know that even if we hadn't, Tiffani, the wedding planner would have still made sure that it was the best day ever. She is the best part of Wedding's at Gulf Place! Although the beach and reception area with the lighted tent and stage are beautiful, it is so comforting that she was there to take care of all of the set up and coordinating for us. She never stopped working to make it the best day ever for us. She truly goes above and beyond. She even made sure to bring us and our wedding party food and drinks during the reception so that we didn't have to wait in line. She was so sweet and thoughtful through the whole wedding planning process and especially the wedding weekend. We are local to the area, so my mom went to every wedding leading up to ours. Tiffani made it a point to speak to her even during her busy day. You won't regret choosing this beautiful venue and thoughtful planner for your wedding. I am still shocked and thrilled with how beautiful and perfect everything turned out for our special day!

    This venue was perfect for our small, intimate wedding! Also, Tiffani, the wedding coordinator for this venue, was such a delight to work with! She was such a big help in making sure everything ran very smoothly the day of, and was so easy to work with during all the planning. We could not have asked for anything more on our special day!!

    I loved having my wedding here. It was the best value on 30A, but even had it not been I think I still would have picked this location. Gulf Place is beautiful, and because the beach is private, they were able to keep random onlookers from being super close to the wedding itself (so we don't have a bunch of extra people in our pictures). Because the beach on that end of 30A is so wide, the chairs were also faced directly toward the water, but on the other end of the beach chairs would have to be askew. This is minor, but it's just one more detail that made me appreciate Gulf Place. Also, Tiffani was extremely helpful. She was very responsive throughout the whole planning process.

    Tiffani helped make our wedding day absolutely perfect! Without her help, it would not have been as great as it was! I would recommend her services to anyone.

    There was plenty of room to handle our large crowd which was one of the reasons it was chosen. Accommodations, restaurants and shops onsite make it optional to leave the property. Tiffani, the wedding coordinator at Gulf Place, was great to work with, especially with those sure to happen last minute glitches. She worked hard to make sure everything came off as we wanted. There are no indoor options so you must be open to the possibility of bad weather.

    Thank you L! It was a pleasure to work with you. You did an awesome pulling together your vision.

    I don't even know where to start! My fiancé and I planned our Florida wedding from California, so online reviews like this were sometimes all I had to go on. We chose this venue based on the amazing location, the cost (much better than neighboring beach communities), and the fact that our entire wedding party as well as guests could stay in one location. Almost everyone at our wedding was able to park on Thursday or Friday and not even get back in a car until they left. And it was so much fun to have everyone staying so close. I also love the variety of condos and rooms for people to rent. There is something for everyone. The best part about our wedding at Gulf Place was having Tiffani to help with every step. I cannot say enough good things about her! Friday night we wanted to have a beach bonfire and dinner on the beach for our rehearsal dinner. The weather had other plans, but Tiffani came to the rescue! She helped set up something on the green (where our reception would be the next night) and it was just perfect. She went above and beyond to ensure we had a beautiful rehearsal dinner. She worked amazingly well with my wedding coordinator for the whole weekend as well. Saturday was just perfect. We had our ceremony on the beach and our reception under a tent on the large green space at the center of Gulf Place. I wouldn't change a thing and I highly recommend this as a wedding venue. You will NOT be disappointed. On a sidenote, I do recommend having a wedding coordinator for at least the day of. Tiffani is amazing and super helpful but she can only do so much! Get someone to help with the details that you won't even think about until your wedding day!

    She was extremely helpful. In the midst of bad weather and uncertainty regarding our rehearsal dinner, she stepped up and used her own linens which were awesome! Can't say enough about her!

    My only comment would be to find a reception place at Gulf Place that could go on a little longer than 10 p.m. I love Gulf Place and can not wait to go back!!! It will be our vacation spot every year from now on :) Thank you again so much!

    My wedding at Gulf place was more perfect then I could have imagined. I had no idea there'd be a venue that met all of my wish list criteria. I wanted a blank canvas, outside so I could transform it however I wanted. I wanted a field, but I also wanted to take pictures on the beach without missing my reception. I also wanted a gorgeous princess-like bridal suite to get ready in; one that would fit my 12 bridesmaids, moms, hairdressers, etc in comfortably. I wanted it secluded so it could feel like it was only me, but I wanted coffee shops, restaurants, pizza parlors and a cute/classy bar close by. Lastly I wanted everyone coming to the wedding to stay right where I was staying. I wanted all of this without anyone having to get in a car! I GOT IT! Gulf Place had accommodations for my guests of every size and style. I stayed in a gorgeous 3 bedroom town home that fit 12 of my girls and I and my family stayed right next door. College friends stayed in the inn (1 bedroom hotel type rooms). Everyone had an option for their need. Thursday night when all of our wedding party came in to town we went to the Naked Grape so that the groomsmen and bridesmaids could meet and mingle. We had our rehearsal on the green and then walked to Smiling Fish Cafe to have the rehearsal dinner. They accommodated all 90 of us like it wasn't a big deal! The food was DELISH and the scenery perfect, beachy and intimate. After the dinner, we had a bonfire on the beach so all of our guests could come meet and greet here! On wedding day, my 12 bridesmaids and I spent the day in the gorgeous suite that overlooks the beach AND the green so I could see the water and watch my perfect event unfold. There was salon seats so my hairdresser was in heaven and the lighting was amazing. The green where the wedding was was absolutely perfect! It was big enough to fit everyone comfortably and was just gorgeous. I had the wedding and reception on the green and everyone loved the easy transition. Also, since it's right across the street from the beach, we were able to scoot away at sunset and take pictures and were back before people realized we'd left. There's a stone stage that was awesome! We danced on it all night! And when the wedding had to end, our guests went to the onsite bar, the Naked Grape, and kept the party going! Some of them also went down to the beach! My guests could not say enough good things about the wedding and Gulfplace. They loved the convenience of it all and they loved that it was a mini family vacation for everyone that came! It made the whole weekend a dream because no one had to travel and all of my favorite people were on the same property for 3 days! ...

    Gulf Place Wedding and Events is the Perfect location for a South Walton Beach wedding. It has beautiful white beaches and multiple venues to host the reception ranging from a quaint poolside area filled with palm trees to a large amphitheater that can host a large reception and one of the most beautiful bridle suites that overlooks the ocean. But, the thing that impressed me the most was the fact that Gulf Place is a one stop location where the entire wedding can stay and play without ever getting back in their car! Which is great when you are having a destination wedding.

    While I ultimately decided on a Mountain wedding, I just had to write a review as I was so impressed with Gulf Place Weddings & Events. You have to put this on your list of destinations to look at before you make a final choice.

    It rained the night before the wedding and we had the rehearsal dinner on the green. The ground was extremely wet and the pump did not adequately remove the water. Also the sprinkler system went off the night of rehearsal and wet all the tables and cushions that had to be dried the next day before the ceremony. Thanks to friends that helped this would not have gotten done. Wedding coordinator needs more help for the venue setup for the cost we paid. Tiffani was super and helped us tremendously with the planning othe wedding and rehearsal and coordinating plans and payments. She needed more help for the event to put up panels around the tent and to make sure sprinklers are turned off and water drained appropriately and any last minute things such as cushions being wet were taken care.

    We booked Gulf Place as our reception and ceremony venue in 2013 for our 2014 wedding. We had no doubts that this is where we wanted it and Lauren was so incredibly helpful. Fast forward a few months, Lauren goes on maternity leave, and we are assigned a new agent. Our family and friends kept trying to book their stay at Gulf Place with the group code provided from our wedding reservation and the agents kept telling them they had no wedding on that date booked and no wedding with our names booked either. This was a nightmare and our friends were confused if we were getting married because of how sure the agents said they were. I was told it would be taken care of immediately, yet it happened again. This set the tone for the rest of the months leading up to the wedding, including them losing our paperwork with credit card info on it. We had to of course take time to fill this out again when we were already busy and cancel our credit card. Long story short, it's a beautiful venue and a blank slate if that's what you're looking for (which I was). But just be prepared to be patient because you are not working with the most organized bunch.
