    Jeff and Adrienne

    Aimee Matz was very cheerful, professional and highly accommodating. She did everything to make us happy with our wedding day. Including being at the house on Hawks Cay at 6:00 am! She was dressed beautiful at that early hour. Also the clerk of courts made an error on the license and she helped to get it corrected the next day. Would highly recommended Aimee! ❤️

    Stephen and Teri's beautiful sunset wedfing

    Planning a wedding 3 hours from home, having never been to Duck Key before, Cerimonies by the Sea was great. Very professional from start to finish. Our officiant Aimee was very nice, friendly and made everything very easy for us through the whole process. She kept in touch with us about our vows, license and we enjoyed finally meeting her. We would definately recommend her and Cerimonies by the Sea to everyone!

    Ceremonies by the Sea's reply:

    Teri and Stephen,
    Thank you for your kind words and incredible review! It was an honor to be part of your wedding day. Congratulations!
    I love you both!

    Best officiant ever

    I am absolutely delighted to share my glowing review for our wedding officiant, Aimee, and the incredible service she provided, even in the face of unforeseen circumstances. From the very beginning, Aimee was a beacon of support and professionalism, ensuring that our wedding ceremony was nothing short of perfect.
    Although Aimee was originally scheduled to officiate our wedding, unforeseen circumstances arose that prevented her from fulfilling that role. However, instead of leaving us in a lurch, Aimee went above and beyond to find a replacement officiant for us. This act of kindness and dedication immediately spoke volumes about her character and commitment to ensuring our special day went off without a hitch.
    Throughout the entire process, Aimee was incredibly communicative and helpful. She kept us informed every step of the way, making sure we felt supported and confident in our plans. Her guidance and assistance were invaluable in ensuring that all the necessary details were taken care of, leaving us feeling completely at ease as the big day approached.
    Despite the unexpected change in officiant, our wedding ceremony was absolutely beautiful, thanks in no small part to Aimee's efforts. The officiant she found for us was simply amazing, and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect fit. Aimee's dedication to our happiness and satisfaction was evident in every aspect of her service, and we are forever grateful for her unwavering support.
    In summary, I cannot recommend Aimee highly enough. Her professionalism, communication, and genuine care for her clients are truly unparalleled. If you're looking for an officiant who will go above and beyond to ensure your wedding day is everything you've dreamed of and more, look no further. Aimee is an absolute gem, and we feel incredibly lucky to have had her support on our special day.

    Ceremonies by the Sea's reply:

    Dear Makayla and Kyle,

    I am truly touched by the heartfelt review you shared about my officiant services. It was an honor to be part of your special day, and I’m delighted to know that my contribution helped make your ceremony memorable.

    Your kind words have filled me with immense gratitude and joy. Thank you for allowing me to witness the love and commitment you both share. It’s couples like you who make my role as a wedding officiant so rewarding.

    Wishing you a lifetime of happiness and love,
    Aimee

    Aimee is Amazing!!!

    Aimee with Ceremonies by the Sea was our day of coordinator for our wedding in Key Largo! She is the sweetest person and made me feel so special from our very first phone call. She made the final couple months of wedding planning so easy and stress free creating our timeline and communicating with all of our vendors about all the details. She was always very responsive and made time for me whenever I needed anything. The day of the wedding came and she set everything up just how I pictured it. The whole wedding went so smooth with zero problems. I trusted her completely and she was amazing. I highly recommend including Aimee in your wedding!!

    Ceremonies by the Sea's reply:

    Kendall and Bobby,
    Thank you for your beautiful review and kind words! I feel blessed to have worked with you both and your families. Your wedding day will always be special to me. Congratulations! I love you both:)

    Surprise Engagement

    I highly recommend Aimee with Ceremonies By The Sea. She took care of everything.
    It was a surpris event and she made it effortless! I was in Maryland and literally worked with her over the phone and texting. She made it happen, the beach theme at sunset! Photography & Video. She was absolutely fabulous! If you want the best In the Keys you need not look anymore! Aimee, I cannot thank you enough for making the engagement very special for Samantha & Colton!!!!

    We just loved everything

    We absolutely cannot say enough good things about Amiee. Any questions we had she was on it. My bouquet was amazing. She was easy to work with and so flexible when things came up. She made us feel like we’ve known her forever and it just made things so much easier on such a nervous day

    Ceremonies by the Sea (Aimee & staff) made this simply, AWSOME. The attention to detail and the absolute creativity is unmatched. We all had fun and were simply amazed by the fun professional staff. This is an example for others to be inspired by and follow. Well done!

    Wonderful Aimee

    Aimee went out of her way to make sure every little detail was perfect. We have been her largest wedding with 90 people and she and her helper, Princess did any outstanding job. I know it is a lot of work and stress to make sure a brides wedding goes perfect but I never felt doubt from either of them. They were very professional, and reasonable. If you are looking for someone who becomes part of your "family" at the end of your time with them then Aimee is the one. I look forward to recommending her to others and find joy in watching her make other people just as happy as we were on our big day. Thank you Aimee and God Bless you!

    Ceremonies by the Sea's reply:

    Thank you, Taylor, for your kind words and incredible review. I am touched by your thoughts and I definitely appreciate now being a part of your family. Princess and I are honored and touched to have been part of your best day ever, thank you for trusting us. We love you both!
    God Bless and Congratulation's!

    Aimee was amazing!

    We knew we wanted to get married on the beach and Aimee was instrumental in making that happen. From recommending locations and arranging permission to lists of preferred vendors, she can help! In the weeks prior to the wedding, she sent us a.beautiful ceremony that was just perfect for us.

    If you are planning to be married in the Keys, highly recommend you connect with Aimee and Ceremonies by the Sea!

    Perfect! Reliable, Professional, with Easy Communication.

    Perfect Wedding!
    Ceremonies by the Sea was reliable, professional, with easy two way communication. Very reasonable pricing.
    We went with the stress free package. Which is just show up with a Bride and Groom dressed. Everything else is taken care of.
    We worked with Aimee. She walks you through the process. She gets your opinions and desires and then puts together a perfect ceremony. Ceremonies by the Sea, with Aimee, is a must have for your wedding.

    Vow Renewal

    Aimee was there for me from the beginning. I live in MI so, I had to rely on her for almost everything. She didn't disappoint. From constant contact, getting to know me and my husband on a personal level, handling all the details, suggestions, the most beautiful ceremony and decorations!! I could go on and on. Aimee is absolutely the best, hands down!!! We've become besties. Thank you for everything, Aimee!!! We love you! ♥️♥️

    Wedding of my dreams

    We made reservations at Isla Bella Resort in Marathon. Beautiful resort but the prices for a small wedding were a bit outrageous. After an internet search I reached out to several wedding planners with quick email conversations. Aimee stood out from the rest. She is very knowledgeable and genuine. Through our conversations Aimee felt more like a friend to us and never made us feel like a client. Our wedding day could not have taken place without Aimee. She checked up on us, sent great recommendations for hair, makeup, and photography. As the date got closer Aimee sent reminders of things to do prior to the date. We are from Louisiana and relied heavily on Aimee for everything, she did not disappoint. The day of the wedding was amazing and came together perfectly. Everyone that Aimee recommended worked great together planned a timeline and were very personable and pleasant to be around. I recommend Ceremonies by the Sea owned by Aimee, you will not be disappointed. Thank you Aimee for being a part of our special day.

    Ceremonies by the Sea's reply:

    Hi Blasia and Jeremy
    Thank you for you beautiful and incredible words. You two will always be super special to me. I had a great time getting to know you both and your family at the resort over your wedding weekend.
    Let me know when your back to visit us in the keys.
    We will definitely get together ❤️

    Congratulations,

    Our Fairy Tale Wedding Came True in the Keys!

    We found ‘Ceremonies by the Sea’ through an internet search. We reserved our hotel room at the resort, Isla Bella, on Marathon Key which is gorgeous. I reached out to the resort wedding Coordinator at Isla Bella, and found out it would cost $10,000 just to reserve the elopement space, not counting ANYTHING else. So we turned to the internet and found Aimee, who owns ‘Ceremonies by the Sea’. She was extremely friendly, a great communicator, professional, and affordable. We eloped and had a gorgeous Fairy Tale wedding for about $2,200.
    Aimee provided everything, the wedding arch and gorgeous decor, she reserved what seemed like a private beach, the music, our flowers, a professional photographer, and of course her excellent Officiant skills. She is a skilled writer, and the ceremony was very emotionally touching. Aimee is very flexible and agreeable to anything we wanted. She was open to our ideas and even helped us execute our ideas and got excited about them. My husband and I keep saying we found this company through Divine Providence, meaning God wanted us to find Aimee, and make our Union together as a couple possible in that heavenly place. It was the most magical and romantic day of our lives. Aimee of ‘Ceremonies by the Sea’, is the most approachable person you could imagine. We prepaid our wedding in advance, and she let us do that in installments, which made our dream come true very easily. I highly recommend her company. 5 stars!
    She is on Instagram @ceremoniesbythesea.flkeys where you can see a short video of our wedding spot.

Please keep me posted about all your adventures. On your next visit, lets definitely connect. I love you both!

    Aimee was our Day of a coordinator and officiant. She was very helpful in organizing vendors and getting them together. She was also very adaptable in terms of creating a ceremony that complimented both mine and my husband’s religious values. That was something extremely important to us, pleasing both sides while adding what we wanted and valued the most. She was awesome! And so sweet!
