Beautiful beach wedding!

Leather and Lace was incredible. We planned an out of state beach wedding. Lacey made the process easy and stress free!! She handled everything from ceremony to reception—it was beautiful! Thank you Lacey and team!

Wedding coordination was perfect

Lacey and her team not only did our photo services, but she also provided day of wedding coordination for me - although I would say she did more than just the day of coordination. She made sure I had more than the anticipated decorations that I provided and had ordered in her beach service package. She worked with me carefully from overseas to make sure I had just the right colors that I wanted for the chairs and reception tables. I chose not to do my ceremony directly on the beach because of mobility reasons for my dad and instead we had a pavilion location overlooking the beach. Her driftwood arbor decor worked beautifully in this space. It's also a good thing we had this venue as it turned out to be a rainy day with just enough of a clearing to get some sunset pictures on the beach with the bridal party. She did a great job coordinating between the venue, cake, flower, and DJ vendors that we used. I really enjoyed working with Lacey and wouldn't hesitate to call on her if I ever needed to organize another special event.

I was planning from a distance, only was able to meet Devi one time before the wedding. She was super helpful, had great ideas, was open to mine and made my day beautiful and super low stress. Could not have been happier, and she made it possible.

10 star review!!

Devi made our day perfect. I am not a typical bride and Devi worked with me up until the day of to make me feel comfortable. It was a private ceremony and absolutely perfect. She is extremely responsive via email, text or phone call. I did not have to think about 1 thing other than showing up in my dress. She did had everything handled from the officiant to the decorations to flowers. I would highly recommend using Devi with Loughtide to anyone wanting a beach wedding. Especially if you are like me and you want to just show up. We even changed location last minute!

Amazing Beautiful Wedding

Devi at Loughtidebeachweddings.com did a fabulous job. I was a bride that didn't have the time to plan a wedding. I picked the package I wanted online and she did the rest. I was able to show up in my dress with no stress! We also paid extra for her to set up and clean up the reception. She has many contacts for food music and entertainment. If you're looking for a beautiful memorable wedding day with no stress call Devi with Loughtidebeachweddings.com

Fabulous Service!

The LoughTide Beach Wedding team is one of a kind! My husband and I knew we wanted a beach wedding ceremony for our small group of 30 guests and coming from Missouri, we didn't know what to expect when it came to planning an out-of-state wedding. Referred to us by friends, LoughTide Beach Wedding Planners did not disappoint us. From their affordable packages to their outstanding service, we got everything we hoped for and more. Many of our guests complimented us and said "This looks like a wedding straight out of Pinterest!" I couldn't have been happier with our choice. It did rain on our wedding day (good luck all around!) and they did not let that put a damper on our experience. Our main planner Devi even provided me with an umbrella which I thought was so sweet and thoughtful. If you're hoping to find a caring team who is open to any and all requests, this is your planner!

Mike and Devi took amazing care of us on our day. Mike officiated our ceremony and put me at ease every step of the way. I really appreciate him giving us his undivided attention and walking us through everything. Since we came from out of state we really depended on him to guide us through the process. We had an amazing experience. Devi put her beautiful touches to our ceremony decor and everything was perfect for us. I would definitely recommend using Lough Tide to anyone looking for a great Destination wedding experience in the Florida Panhandle area. We had our dream wedding thanks to the care they gave us. 5 stars.

Devi and Mike were great to work with for my daughter's destination wedding. Devi responded to my emails and phone calls within a reasonable time. I was not worried at all about the ceremony as I truly felt it was in good hands. Mike made the Bride and Groom and me feel very at ease about everything. He is definitely a Pro at this. He did an awesome job with the whole ceremony. Thanks again Devi and Mike for making my daughter's wedding beautiful.

Mike was our day of event coordinator and officiant. He was very easy to get in touch with and so helpful with any questions I had. He suggested vendors for my husband and I to use and his suggestions were perfect. He made a timeline and helped our day run so smoothly. His officiant services were also perfect. We told him what kind of ceremony we wanted and that we wanted to write our own vows. He made it happen and our ceremony was beautiful! Can never thank him enough for all he did.

We are from Wisconsin, and although we had been to the area...we were totally at the mercy of vendors when we planned this wedding. We choose Lough Tide because of the excellent reviews that they received, not only on this site, but also on others. It was absolutely the very best choice we could have made! From the very first call, Mike was helpful and informative. He was up-front and very honest (even if it didn't benefit Lough Tide) with all of the realities of our beach front wedding, which is extremely important. Given the fact that we were traveling to the destination, and had people coming in from all over the country, we left it all up to Mike. He didn't disappoint! We told him what we wanted and it is as if he read our minds...the wedding was perfect!

Mike and Shari worked with us and even though the forecast called for rain, they made sure our day would happen for us no matter what!!! Shari was so nice and kind and I thank her for helping me to not get too stressed for our day! Everything was awesome and the setup was even better than I imagined it would be! Thanks for everything! I am still in amazement right now from everything for our day....from the setup to the photographer! May God Continue to Bless them all as they bless others!!!

I would highly recommend Mike and his team at LoughTide Beach Weddings! He was so easy to work with starting at the first phone call, and he emailed me a quote that worked with our budget the very next day. It was most important to my husband (the groom) that anyone in our family and wedding party (including us) not have to do anything regarding details on the day of the wedding and Mike truly took that to heart. They handled every detail, and were so organized and well prepared for our vision that no questions were asked and it truly ended up exactly how we envisioned. Mike also performed our ceremony, and it was exactly what we wanted. He made it personal for us even after only meeting us in person for the first time three days prior! All of the vendor suggestions were spot on, as well, and he handled all communications with vendors leading up to the event.

Also, a few weeks before the wedding we started adding additional things needed (help with the rehearsal dinner, etc) and Mike was very accommodating and helped us keep everything within our budget. Everyone loved the look of our wedding, and the decor was all thanks to Mike and his team!

I can't imagine how hectic and stressful things would have been with out LoughTide Beach Weddings! They handled everything and were amazingly professional, warm and accommodating. I can't thank them enough!!!

The moment I met Mike, I knew he was the perfect match to help us plan our big day. He asked all the right questions and his creativity sculpted what I had previously planned myself into exactly what I wanted. I originally thought that I could plan a 170 guest wedding all by myself - I secured all of our vendors and got to the design and centerpieces and realized I was in over my head. Mike came in and was truly a Godsend. He picked up where I left off and took my ideas and ran wild with them, going above and beyond what I had originally envisioned. Mike thought of little elements that made a huge difference. The entire day of our wedding I was getting compliments that it was the best wedding people had ever been to - I owe it all to Mike and his sweet wife Shari for their hard work and dedication to making our wedding day special and unique.

We live in Minnesota and planned our daughters destination wedding in Florida. We used Mike the owner of Lough Tide and he was absolutely heaven sent. The wedding was perfect and it's all because of the care and details that Mike and his staff gave to the wedding, they truly care about your wedding. We used Mike as our wedding & event planner since he's a local and has been doing this for a long time, he was able to recommend several different vendors/suppliers for the wedding. Plus, he coordinated all of our vendors, kept everything on track, conference calls leading up to the wedding, onsite days before the wedding, performed the rehearsal, arrived very early the day of the wedding, made the magic happen and didn't leave until the dance started!!
They supplied the tables, chairs, decoration (fabulous setup)and etc. The set up, take down and clean up was spot on and headache free. He had done weddings at this location (500 Avenida 14 Gulf Breeze, FL) so he was very familiar with the beach house. He's very experienced/accommodating, ease to work with, keeps everyone calm, truly cares and the price for the whole package was very reasonable.
I would very highly recommend Lough Tide. Thank you Mike for making my daughters wedding magical, stress free and everything she hoped it would be!!

Mike and his wife were absolutely wonderful to work with! I used their services to plan a surprise proposal for my girlfriend at Navarre Beach this past weekend. From the moment I spoke to Mike, he assured me that he would be able to take care of each and every detail. I could now confidently say thanks to him and his wife my proposal turned out to be perfect! Mike was very flexible as I initially had to change my proposal date. He was able to contact the proper vendors and schedule everything to the point where all I had to do was literally show up with my girlfriend. Since I am from Texas, all planning was done via phone and email. As I was pretty nervous about the proposal, I had many questions. I am happy to say that Mike was very responsive each time I needed to speak. He would take out the time to listen to my concern and was able to take care of any issues that came our way. Mike and his wife were there during the entire proposal, helping us with whatever it was we needed. They even setup a path of sparklers for us to capture in our photos which I thought was amazing and super creative. I would highly recommend their services!

We had our wedding this past week in Pensacola. Mike Oliver made it look beautiful and everything was wonderful. This was a destination wedding for us so he pretty much planned everything with asking us a few questions about colors and flowers here and there. I liked it this way because I did not have to stress over anything not being the way I wanted it to be. I highly recommend Mike from Loughtide Beach Weddings. He is very nice, professional, and creative!

Mike was the best. We had a destination wedding in Destin. He was very patient and answered all my questions and was the only vendor that replied when asked to do a very small wedding on the beach. He treated us like we were having a million dollar wedding. I asked him to just provide me with a simple brightly colored bouquet, a flower for the groom, a nice arbor and just a few professional photos. I left it all up to him and he made our wedding perfect!

Thank You, Mike, for helping me plan the perfect wedding!!!! I had a destination wedding in Navarre, FL. I live in Las Vegas, NV. I have NEVER been there before, but I wanted a location that my family in the south could easily get to by car. Needless to say, I was super nervous, but I didn't need to be. Mike totally took care of every detail. Everything was perfect. From the beautiful ceremony set-up, to the reception decor, everything was so pretty! Mike is super responsive-all I had to do was shoot him a text or email for anything that I might need. Also, and this is a HUGE thing for me, Mike was SUPER FLEXIBLE. I can't even begin to describe all the changes that I had to make. What started out as a "simple" 25-30 person wedding turned into an event that had around 60 people (including a few kids). Mike never batted an eye at any of the crazy things that I had to deal with. I am extremely happy with the service I received from LoughTide Beach Weddings. And if you are worried about having a wedding in Navarre instead of one of the bigger Gulf Coasts Cities-Don't Worry!! Navarre is a small, but BEAUTIFUL beach town. I admit that coming from Vegas, I am used to glitz and glam, but Navarre was definitely a welcome change of pace. I can't wait to go back!!

My wedding was a dream wedding, hands down!! My ceremony started an hour late because of a rain delay. Mike Oliver was so patient and reassuring that everything would be okay. It turned out to be an absolutely gorgeous sunset with a rainbow right before the ceremony. Mike was extremely easy to deal with, you can make payments on your wedding - don't have to do it all at once. I live in Arkansas so I just trusted him to find a spot to have my wedding and he did great! I can't express how amazing my wedding turned out.

From my first conversation with Mike I knew hiring him was a must. He was very easy to talk to and extremely helpful with any question or issue I had. He guided me through the entire wedding planning process and I do not know what I would have done without him. He took away a lot of stress! On the day of our wedding I was so impressed with his staff. They showed up right on time and did not stop working until the end. Everything they set up was just absolutely perfect and our wedding was more than I expected thanks to them. I have to give a special thanks to his staff member Meagan. She made sure I was happy and comfortable the entire time and could not have been more helpful. I would highly recommend LoughTide to anyone I know having a wedding in Pensacola. I couldn't be more pleased!

Mike and his staff made our wedding day everything we could have ever dreamed. I sent him a few pictures and he made everything a reality. We were so pleased! Everyone at the wedding had a blast. We were told by several guests that the site looked like something straight out of a bridal magazine. He also recommended our DJ, caterer and florist, and coordinated all of that as well. The day was perfect!

I was a little nervous about planning a destination wedding but everything was perfect! Mike took the time to explain everything to me, he listened and made my vision a reality. Our big day was everything I dreamt of and more. We're very pleased with loughtide beach weddings.

Mike was fantastic! Having LoughTide Beach Weddings for my wedding was the best decisions I made. Working with Mike was so easy and he did everything above and beyond my expectations. I would highly recommend their services to anyone considering a beach wedding. I didn't have anything to worry or stress about, they handled it all. Which is exactly what a bride needs, stress free. Everything was beautiful and flawless. Everyone of my guest told me it was the most gorgeous wedding they had ever been to. The entire staff was amazing.

If you have randomly Found Lough Tide weddings on a internet search.....STOP searching. We live local but are very busy and hired Mike Oliver. He was absolutely amazing. He made putting on such a great wedding so easy for us. He has done it for years, he is very knowledgeable and can forsee issues before they happen to ensure the smoothest event and event planning. The vendors he used were amazing and affordable as well, and I really can not say enough about what Mike and his wife did for us to make a very memorable wedding and stress free planning

I am so very thankful to have come across Mike Oliver of LoughTide Beach Weddings. Our best friends decided quickly to get married and wanted a simple Justice of the Peace service, however, my boyfriend and I said that wouldn't do because the bride had never had a "real" wedding. I reached out to various wedding planners in the area for help (I only had 4 weeks to put it all together). Many came back unavailable or looking for a high dollar turn around. Mike actually reached out to me and I'm very thankful he did. LoughTide Beach Weddings was able to provide me with a complete beach service with arbor and decorations, and Officiant (Mike himself), catering for the wedding, full decorations for the house, flowers, photographer and massage recommendation for the morning of for the bride & groom. I sent him a few pictures and man was he able to get my vision or what. He hit it spot on. He was in contact with me on a regular basis, he coordinated the caterer and photographer after providing us with several chooses. His decorations where great and the clean up service the next day was perfect. And best of all the cost for all of his services was extremely reasonable especially for pulling all this together in such a short period of time. If you are looking for a professional wedding planner and a all around great guy then Mike and LoughTide Beach Weddings is the place for you. Thanks Mike the bride and groom as well as all the guest were complete delighted with the days event. I have some great pictures if you'd like to see what he did for us.

Mike Oliver with Lough Tide Beach Weddings was phenomenal! I could not have asked more a more perfect day. I have said and will continue to say that I would not have planned/had my wedding any other way.
My husband and I are from Missouri, and planned a destination wedding in Navarre Beach, Florida. Mike made it very easy with a low level of stress on my part. He simply asked me what I wanted and gave me all of that and more!

I surprised my wife with a vow renewal for our 25th Wedding Anniversary on the beach. Mike Oliver was nothing short of spectacular. His follow-up was prompt, he was extremely flexible even including my 2 year old granddaughter as a flower girl at the last minute. My wife was blown away and the ceremony was both beautiful and perfect.

Thank you Mike!!!

Now that our wedding is over, there is one word to describe the services, professionalism and work of Mike at Lough Tide Beach Weddings … AMAZING! Mike helped me plan and execute my wedding May 10, 2014 in Orange Beach, Alabama. Working with him was the best decision we made.
Planning an out of town wedding was very stressful no doubt, but Mike reassured me from the very first time we talked on the phone that he was a Pro at this. We traveled in from Texas and Louisiana to meet Mike in Orange Beach in November 2013 and February 2014, he spent an entire day with us trying to find the best venue possible for my dream wedding. Once the venue was chosen he drew the layout of everything for the wedding and reception so we could all see he vision for the BIG day!
Fast-forward to the day before wedding; 80% chance of rain was the forecast on the day of wedding. You are always faced with the possibility of rain at beach. The wedding and reception were outside but that didn’t stop Mike from making this the wedding everything I had dreamt of. The tents were decorated with strands of lights, nice floral arrangements and with a touch of beach flare. The day the wedding I didn’t have to worry at all that it was going to look just as I envisioned.
Thank you to Mike for the beautiful day and for helping make mine and Adam’s special day go off without a HITCH!

Mike Oliver was wonderful & personable to work with! He was open with our own ideas & provided valuable insights of his own. Our beach wedding was a dream come true! He also transformed a dark, cold banquet room into a warm & inviting reception with beautiful decorations! My friends & family are still raving about it!

Planning a destination wedding was what I've always wanted but I had no clue on Where to begin. Mike made it seem so easy. From the first time I talked to him until the end of our wedding night, he listened to what we wanted for our special day as well as took care of everything from set up to tear down and all the little details in between. My family loved what he had set up for us! It was perfect! He made us feel like we were having a huge extravagant wedding when in reality it was just 25 people. I would highly recommend Lough Tide Beach Weddings to anyone! You won't be disappointed!

Let me first say what a complete pleasure it was working with Mike Oliver. From the wedding designs on the beach, to the reception at Colbalts! He was there calm,and in control.
My daughters wedding was in May, and the weather was a huge challenge since it was a outdoor wedding! The forecast called for rain all weekend. When it was clear that we could not take a chance with reception, it was Mike to the rescue!
The day of wedding we went to plan "C". Mike had a backup plan for beach wedding in case it started raining. The ceremony was great (on beach) with Mike officiating.
When it was clear that rain could ruin things for outdoor reception, that's when "Mike to the rescue" came in to play. He knew a company that would work with us to place tents according. Jim was another treasure! So easy to work with!
After a few final touches the reception place was well into the swing of things. I left knowing It was in great hands with Mike.
The reception was magical. Tents, lights, music, family, food, &drinks!
Mike was the easiest person to work with, when plans changed, he was "ok, we can make that happen".
We still have friends & family talk about how wonderful it was despite the weather!
We owe it all to Mike and his connections to folks that make things happen!
So, thank you Mike for a wonderful memory of my daughters wedding weekend, from start-to-finish, you made it magical!
Lisa

Mike and Beth did a fantastic job. Coming from Houston, TX we handled all details over the phone and email, never seeing anything or meeting face to face. Even with that obstacle, the wedding came off perfectly. We are a couple with high expectations and Mike's team exceeded them! Last minute color changes and being picky about the vendors was all handled timely and professionally. All his suggestions worked out perfectly and the one area we didn't listen to him (photography) was the only area we were disappointed in. In short, this team knows the business of weddings in Pensacola Beach. There was not a single guest that did not compliment every aspect of our wedding. Thank you Lough Tide for making the wedding of our dreams a reality.

After reading various reviews on The Lough Tide Beach Weddings I decided to contact Mr. Pliver for information reguarding beach weddings. Being that I am a Louisiana resident I debated several months on having a destination wedding in Pensacola. I emailed Mr. Oliver for months before booking and he was extremly professional, I would email simple questions, diffrent wedding ideas, and ask for quotes and not one time did he not email back or stop responding. He was very kind and understanding, once my fiancee' and I decided a small beach wedding was what we wanted i had to book with this company! Many times Mr. Oliver could have stopped answering my emails, but he didnt and I greatly apprieciate it. His staff was AWESOME the day of our wedding,I cannot thnak Shannon (the photographer) and Megan (LTW coordinator) enough they were awesome!!!! The decor was Beautiful!!!! If you are planning a beach wedding do not second guess yourself this is the company to use!

Best in the Business! Made sure my special day was truly special. They worked on my schedule, was very easy to contact, only a phone call away. There was always a solution to my problems. Every Vendor I was suggested was top of the line quality. Really reliable too! I planned my entire wedding in Japan and only had a couple of days to see what had been done and I was amazed. Flowers (Just Gorgeous), Cake (Delicious in every way), DJ (The best!! No awkward moments, no cheesy lines, no crappy jokes. Prue awesome!), The Caters (Food was wiped clean!! Just magnificent.), and also the photographer...(Was a photographer, beauty designer, professional!! Lady was everything and more!!) This is way to go if you really want your wedding event to be spectacular and eventful in every single way. They are really experienced people with so many ways to put you special day above and beyond!!

LoughTide Beach Weddings could not have made our special day more fantastic! Mike was available, understanding, listened, punctual, reliable, caring, affordable, and went above and beyond on every single request. The best decision we made was to use LoughTide Beach Weddings and I give him an 11/10! Mike stayed under budget, came through on every request without increasing costs, took all the stress away of planning, and was attentive to our every detail prior to and the day of the wedding. I would hands down use LoughTide Beach Weddings again without hesitation. He also has great recommendations for other vendors including music, photography, bakery, florist, etc. Thank you again for making our wedding-day dreams come true!! Lauren and Clay

Mike at Loughtide was great to work with. He was very professional and timely in his responses and support, and very affordable for the great amount of planning and support provided. He was a great guy and a real pleasure to work with. We couldn't have pulled the wedding day activities off without his help. We would recommend Loughtide for anybody's upcoming weddings. They'll make sure that your special day goes perfectly.

Mike and his team at LoughTide Beach Weddings are truly amazing! Our wedding was absolutely perfect and exactly what we envisioned it to be. Since our wedding was a destination wedding we had to do a majority of the communicating via email, phone, and texts which was not a problem as Mike knew exactly what we wanted after each conversation we had. He also made sure to meet us whenever we were in town and also offerred to make trips to Atlanta where we were based out of. He listened to all of our requests and made our wedding the magical event we wanted it to be. He was also great at giving advice as he has been in the business a long time and was very knowledgeable. If we were unsure of something and if it would work he was able to give us feedback from previous weddings and experiences. Since he has a lot of experience in the wedding planning business he also has a lot of contacts so he was able to recommend all of our other vendors who were all truly amazing. I would definitely recomment Mike and LoughTide Beach Weddings as he made it a truly special day we will never ever forget!

I planned a destination wedding (live in Texas, wanted to get married in FL). My fiancé-to-be and I visited Destin, FL, a few months back to scope out different wedding venues. Well, we got very discouraged after our visit realizing it was way over our wedding budget. One of the sweet ladies we met with mentioned Loughtide Weddings and said they are a great husband & wife team. To make a long story short, I am so thankful for the lady who mentioned LoughTide. Mike was WONDERFUL. Destination weddings normally you would think would be very difficult to plan and high stress. Not with Mike. He made things so simple for me. Anything I asked, he would respond very quickly to emails/texts. Was available ‘after hours’. Found me the most perfect beach house that we rented to get married, the florist, the DJ, he was our Officiate. He helped us find a contact to get our marriage license. Everything fell into place perfectly. He coordinated everything with our Caterer. He did a great job on our Ceremony and awesome job on our Reception – it exceeded our expectations. The décor his wife put together was awesome, the lighting on the deck of the beach house was wonderful. Everyone keeps saying our wedding was the best wedding they had been to. My family/friends kept telling me through our wedding planning process “you don’t seem stressed at all” “you are so laid back” Well, that is because of Mike w/ LoughTide Weddings. He is the best and had very reasonable pricing. Oh, and he kept our wine glasses full the night of our Ceremony. :-) Thank you Mike for making my/our dream wedding come true on the water of Navarre Beach, FL.

Thank you Mike & Shari for the perfect wedding weekend! I never in a million years thought everything would be as perfect as it was. You guys really take the time to get to know your clients, who end up being friends! Thanks for all of the phone calls, as planning a destination wedding can sometimes feel scary. You guys were in total control and we knew everything was being taken care of. The final product was something to celebrate about! Every little detail was amazing! From the Friday night party, yard games Saturday and Brunch, to the wedding Saturday evening, the food, decor, details, time line, wedding officiant, photographer..the list is endless, you truly knew how to make our wedding specific to us, and we're so grateful for that! A bride-to-be would be lucky to work with you two! I sure was! Thank you for making the best day of our lives simply perfection! It won't be forgotten!

From the very beginning to the very end, Mike was there for us the whole time. We had a small wedding and reception and although it wasn't too fancy or complicated...we just wanted to make sure it was done right...and Mike came through and brought it all together. From making suggestions to saving us money, to listening to our ideas, suggestions and special requests, he took care of everything. He and Shari made our special day awesome. My family and friends raved how wonderful it was. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who wants a stressfree, affordable and beautiful wedding. Thank so much Mike & Shari!

We are super pleased with the services provided for us by Lough Tide Beach Weddings. Our ceremony did not require a whole lot but we didn't have to do or worry about anything other than show up. We told Mr. Oliver what we wanted and he took care of everything and kept in touch with us to let us know how things were going. We never felt uncertain about anything. Mr. Oliver was very pleasant and trustworthy. Once we spoke with him we never had a second thought about who we wanted to provide our service. The setup, the flowers, the photography....we couldn't have asked for anything better. The service was exceptional.

LoughTide Weddings was the best wedding planning services I could find! Not being from the Florida area and having to plan from out of state made things difficult and worrisome with how it would all turn out. LoughTide did amazing! I did not have to worry about a thing and knew it would turn out like I dreamed it would. Even with the rain, it was perfect and they always went above and beyond to keep in contact with me. They are very personal, flexible and just what I was looking for in a wedding planner!

My husband and I got married March 15, 2013 and used lough tide beach weddings. Mike Oliver and his whole wedding planning crew did an outstanding job. I was very impressed with the set up and loved my flowers. I would definitively consider going through lough tide beach weddings if you are wanting an amazing wedding with people who love their job. Thank you for sharing our special moment in life with us and making it less stressful. (:

I am so thankful for Mike and his team at Loughtide Beach Weddings for making my Princesses big day a huge success. They handled a "stormy" situation with professionalism and made the whole wedding a success. Once again I'm so thankful for them and may God Bless them to the fullest

Absolutely would recommend this company. Mike and Sherry did a beautiful job of arranging every little detail. I purchased one of their packages, but wanted some minor changes. Mike gladly made these changes. They provided my bouquet of red roses, mini bouquets for my daughters, and the boutonnieres for my husband and son. The flowers were fresh cut and arranged beautifully. The wedding photographs were amazing.

Mike and Sherry made our day more perfect that we had even imagined it. Their experience in planning beach weddings was apparent leading up to and on the day of the event. They were relaxed, knowledgeable, and very personable. I would highly recommend them to anybody planning their own beach wedding.

Loughtide Beach Weddings made the entire process so easy! Mike and his wife, Shari are genuinely good people who make you laugh and smile no matter the situation. After booking with the one year before the actual day, I began to spread the word about them so that others could experience the less-stress way to plan a wedding! Thanks again for making that day so memorable!

Mike and Sherry Oliver ae simply the best.We contacted them to plan our wedding in Destin, Florida for a ceremony on the beach at sunset. I was apprehensive about having someone plan this literally over the phone as I live in Indiana. However, Mike was wonderful.He answered all my questions, made great suggestions and saw to it that our wedding was exactly what we wanted.We could not have chosen a better person to plan our wedding. Although I was over 700 miles away, I had no worries whatsoever about my wedding and how it was being planned. Everything was set up professionally and superbly. From the rose petals on the beach and the violinist to the restaurant for the wedding dinner to the limo service he contracted for us,everything was just perfect. Mike kept our wishes in mind but also made some wonderful suggestions to make it even better. We also had the opportunity to observe some other weddings on the beach during our stay. They were put on by other planners and I must say, without a doubt, none compared to our wedding!!! We had a small wedding, very intimate but very beautiful thanks to Mike and Sherry Oliver at Loughtide Weddings. I would very strongly recommend them to anyone to plan their very special day!!!

I couldn't have asked for better services! Mike and Sherri Oliver are two of the nicest people you'll ever meet and they truly love what they do! They took so much of my stress, even though I didn't hire them until 3 months before my wedding. They took off with my ideas and presented us with things we never would have thought of. Sherri was especially great, taking me shopping and helping me with the decor. I was as involved as I wanted to be in every They went above and beyond the call to make my day perfect, and stress free. There is no price on that! They are, however, extremely affordable and will work with your budget. I highly recommend Loughtide Beach Weddings to any bride! They did an amazing, beautiful job and the day was just perfect!Truly a family run company with southern hospitality and professionalism- the whole package! Always pleasant and calm in demeanor and always with a smile. My only regret is that I didn't bring them on board sooner.

Mike and Shari were super amazing! Jerome and I had a small wedding in Navarre just outside the condo we had rented and it was perfect! Though we planned the wedding from Baton Rouge, not once did I doubt him!! Mike was straight forward with any suggestions or questions I had. He was quick with returning calls. Very professional with the business but personal at the same time. The value was THE best! I will recommend LoughTide Beach Weddings to any and everyone forever!

WOW - that sums up how I feel about LoughTide Weddings. I used this vendor both as my wedding coordinator and my officiant. I was beyond thrilled. Mike and Shari are both so personable and professional at the same time. Mike handled coordination before the big day. He was very responsive and made me feel extremely comfortable. Shari handled the logistics the day of while Mike married us and then Mike put his coordinator hat back on. Mike's pace during the wedding ceremony was exceptional. My now-husband and I were emotional and he kept us calm. They will go out of their way to make you happy. You cannot go wrong with LoughTide Weddings! Hire them, and you will have a beautiful, smooth wedding!

Mike and Shari were wonderful, super accommodating, and totally professional. My husband and I never had an actual wedding because I have no patience: weddings are so time consuming, expensive, and way too aggravating to have to plan. We therefore simply married (initially) at a Justice of the Peace. Pressure from family members afterwards spawned the idea of a simple ceremony while on our family trip to Florida. I found Mike and Shari's site on the internet during a random search, and loved what I saw (the video sold me because I could see an actual ceremony performed by the person with whom you will have planned your entire event - MIKE!) Mike PERSONIFIES "customer service". Mike absolutely bent over backwards to assist me, since I lived out of town and didn't know the area too well. He scouted locations for me, met with the banquet managers for me at Pompano Joe's (where we selected to have our after-ceremony dinner), took photos of Pompano Joe's for me, and negotiated all the loose ends and minute details that I don't otherwise have the patience to deal with (flowers, overall setup, parking situations....) Mike made sure to keep in VERY regular contact with me, and I can honestly say that our beach wedding went off without one single hitch. Their daughter, Michel, was a very patient photographer, and made sure that we were able to get all shots we wished for. This family is wonderful. The only thing that disappointed me about them was that they couldn't join us afterwards for a sit down dinner after all their hard work!! THANKS, MIKE, SHARI, AND MICHEL (sp?)!!!! We truly enjoyed our experience with you, and would most DEFINITELY recommend your impeccable services to anyone who is interested!! BEST WISHES TO YOU FOR A CONTINUOUSLY SUCCESSFUL FUTURE!! Sincerely, Heather and Igor Povsnar (Austin, TX) =)

My family began looking for a wedding planner six months before our daughters June beach wedding. We contacted several coordinators and chose Mike and LoughTide because of the quick responses and willingness to explain our options. Initially we were nervous about planning a Florida beach wedding from Texas. However, Mike quickly put our apprehensions to rest. Mike made some terrific recommendations from wedding sites to reception site. LoughTide handled everything on our daughters special day from wedding preparations to reception site decorations and oversight of the entire days events.
It was such a terrific day for everyone, even the parents of the daughter because Mike and Shari were so thorough in their planning and their obvious love for what they do.
Without question LoughTide weddings is the best wedding planning service in Florida. Thanks to Mike and Shari our family will forever remember the beautiful wedding and reception in Navarre.

Words cannot express how grateful my husband and I are to Mike Oliver and his wife Shari for making our wedding ceremony the most beautiful, meaningful moment of our lives. The experience was truly magical and surreal. He brings a sincerity and warmth to the ceremony that I can't describe. His heart is in every word, It's obviously not "just another day at work" for him. Mike genuinely shares in the joy of the bride and groom. He is an intrinsically good man and I will always be grateful to him for making our wedding so magical.

From a business and planning perspective, he is a rare find as well. Many wedding coordinators try to nickel and dime couples and price gouge them. It was so refreshing to deal with someone so honest and fair minded. He is a man of integrity and that can be hard to find in the wedding industry. He and his wife are people you can count on and trust. I can't sing their praises enough.

Please choose Mike Oliver and Lough Tide Florida Beach Weddings for your ceremony. They will make your wedding special and beautiful!!

Lough Tide Beach Weddings made our wedding an experience of a life time. They cover every detail and take all the stress away so you can focus on the actual ceremony itself. Mike Oliver and his wife are incredible people and their passion for their work is apparent from the first time you speak with them on the phone until you say "I do"- Michele , his daughter is a rising star as a photographer also- We are endeared to the Oliver Family for Life.

Sincerely,

Bryan and Whitney Hill

Thank you so much to Mike & Shari (& staff)! You are super to work with!!! The ceremony was lovely! Couldn’t have asked for a better one!!! We planned the wedding from Canada, Mike responded to every email promptly! He spent a lot of time talking to us making the ceremony exactly how we wanted He provided sand and an etched glass vase for our ceremony that we'll cherish The sand ceremony was very beautiful !!! He arrived an hour early to set up, and never rushed us. I couldn't have asked for a better wedding consulter, day coordinator or officiant. I would recommend him to anyone. I know he will make your wedding day special too !!! Thank you again for making our special day amazing! (Galina & Manfred)
