    Beautiful!

    We chose to have a small intimate ceremony with just the two of us in the gardens at Sanibel Moorings. The ceremony took place at a lovely spot with tropical flowers, palm trees, and a flower petal sprinkled pathway leading to a beautifully decorated driftwood arch. My bouquet and his boutonniere were made from hand picked flowers out of the properties gardens. Kari was wonderful to work with and we couldn't be more pleased. She listened to what we wanted for our wedding and made suggestions/recommendations along the way to help make it perfect. Sanibel Moorings is beautiful and Kari and her staff exceptional!

    Breathtakingly Beautiful!

    I has always dreamed of getting married at the beach..and it came true! From the moment we drove onto the Island of Sanibel we knew we were in for a treat. Once we arrived at Sanibel Moorings, it all came together perfectly. The serene tropical setting of the resort is nestled among the lusciousness of the island. Sanibel Moorings' grounds are breathtakingly beautiful and such care is taken to highlight the native plants and flowers. While there, you are surrounded by all things that are wonderful and luxurious. The staff at Sanibel Moorings is also top notch, taking care of all of the things that we needed, plus all of the things that we didn't know that we needed. I am so thankful to have been able to have my special day at such a special place...beautiful memories that will last a lifetime.

    A Magical Place...

    Sanibel Moorings is quite the getaway on Sanibel Island. The island provides a sense of true island style living while Sanibel Moorings provided a fantastic place to stay, quick access to the beach, and the ability to just relax. The staff was genuinely friendly all around. From check-in to check-out we were treated with the utmost care and attention.

    The resort has quite the garden throughout the property and their pilot program of setting up umbrellas and chairs out on the beach each morning and bringing them back in the evening for us was amazing. We loved it and will be back next year!

    Thank you!

    Exceptional

    Friendly, professional officiant that made our day a memory of a lifetime. Brought joy and happiness to all parts of the ceremony and lead us through a truly beautiful agenda that delivered a heartfelt, emotional day.

    Was an amazing wedding! Kind and very knowledgeable staff.

    Everything about the experience was amazing. Kari was exceptional, the staff was nice and helpful, and the venue was everything we had hoped it would be. Kari’s suggestions for some of the wedding aspects were a bit against what we had thought of doing but originally but she knew what she was talking about. The wedding was everything we hoped for!

    Sanibel Moorings knocking it out of the Park!

    I would highly recommend Sanibel Moorings. All the staff went out of there way to make sure we had the best experience. The condos were great, we rented six condos and all of them were beautiful. The gardens are amazing and they made for the best wedding photos! Pools were great and the beach was right there. We will definitely come back to see them.

    Our vow renewal here was AMAZING!!!!!!! Our package here was amazing and then some! Throughout the whole time up to our big day our officiant Kari emailed me details and asked questions to make sure our day was perfect! She thought of all the little details that make a day just that extra special! She kept us updated on the red tide which we didn’t see on the beach. I loved all the decorations she put up for us and the location she picked could not have been any more perfect! She knew the island very well and picked this beautiful 6 acres of botanical gardens with butterflies and tons of different plants that most were even labeled so you could know what the plant or flower was! Sanibel moorings is the place to go for your wedding for the full package!!! The sand ceremony was such a beautiful touch, the celebratory toast at the end with champagne and the signed sea shell was so touching and so memorable. The beautiful bouque for me and my daughter was so beautiful I decided I didn’t even want to use the bouque I brought because it was no comparison to how beautiful hers was. Her personality too is so inviting and she is so passionate about your day being perfect! I would give her and this beautiful place more stars if it allowed! My guests loved everything about the vow renewal and were all talking about it after how much they liked Kari and the beautiful location. She knew where the best pictures were to take also to make perfect Garden pictures at Sanibel moorings! Beyond amazing of an experience for an August Florida vow renewal and the weather was not that hot at all with a cool breeze from the ocean. My guests enjoyed the walk way to the beach as well to collect some of the most beautiful shells and sand dollars!

    These people broke the mold when they defined their services. I cannot say enough good about Every. Single. Person at Sanibel Moorings. If you go anywhere else, well.....I'm so very sorry. You will not receive the perfection that is the norm at the Moorings.

    Beautiful Location

    This past July we had the pleasure of getting married at Sanibel Moorings. Twenty five of our close family and friends stayed at Sanibel Moorings where we created memories that our three little ones are still talking about (5 years, 3 years, 1 year old). From the moment we arrived at Sanibel Moorings, we were surrounded by the beauty of endless kinds of flowers, butterflies and nature. The place really is a serene oasis! The staff was extremely friendly and the rooms we stayed in were beautifully maintained. We had family and friends who stayed on the dock side and some of us who stayed on the beach side. Both locations had spectacular views! During the day we went to the beach and visited both of the pools. Our 1 year old thought the small kids pool was created for her! We grilled one night using the barbeques that are available, went kayaking in the canal and collected shells on the beach. It was an unbelievable experience and we will definitely be returning to Sanibel Moorings in the near future!

    Wedding in Paradise

    We have stayed at the Moorings before and couldn't wait to get married there. The gardens are incredible, the beach is steps away and the condos are gorgeous. The staff were incredible and made us feel incredibly special. Kari and her team took care of everything and we're even flexible when this crazy bride moved up the wedding one hour at the very last minute! Sorry guys. My husband even hand picked my bouquet from the garden. We can't wait to come back for our 1st Anniversary.

    It was imperative that I chose the perfect getaway. My fiancé (at the time) and I were planning our elopement in Florida, a place that we both have always loved. Having never been to Sanibel Island before, I discovered Sanibel Moorings after finding out that they had elopement packages. I did some cursory research of the resort, and of the area, and I was very excited to share my find with my future bride! We both became quite enamored with what Sanibel Moorings had to offer. We looked over all of the available units and chose one that we felt would be perfect. I then contacted Kari Cordisco, who was not only an incredible, accommodating coordinator for our elopement, but became a great friend as well!

    We arrived at Sanibel Moorings to a main lobby of warm, inviting, and friendly staff, who were terrific in ensuring a perfect stay. We entered our unit to a stunning, bright, beautiful condo that left an immediate impression upon us. We slipped into a sense of calm and relaxation. This is perfect. We looked out of the screened-in patio past the lush, green grass, the gorgeous flowers, and the exotic plants, to the lovely canal behind our unit. The unit we stayed in had a mix of classic, and modern, beach-themed decor, with a definitive Florida vibe. We loved it.

    My wife and I were wed on a gorgeous, semi-private area of the beach at sunset. The ceremony was intimate. A warm, calming breeze came upon us, with the sound of small waves crashing in the background. The moment couldn't have been m

    We couldn’t have asked for more! Kari made sure every detail was taken care of. We traveled from out of state, and I didn’t have to think twice about leaving things in her very capable hands. She made sure the grounds were spotless. Our wedding was memorable. And that all of my guest had an amazing time.

    From the moment we landed in Florida, Kari was on top of everything. We honsestly never worries about one detail. She wrote the most beautiful vows for my husband and I. And she introduced us to our new favorite champagne!

    A big thank you to Kari and everyone that works at the Moorings!!! You made our wedding day, a day to remember forever!!!

    Kari was absolutely FABULOUS! I cannot stress enough if you are looking for a wonderful venue and wedding coordinator Sanibel Moorings and Kari are the way to go. She made everything effortless for us and so beautiful. The bouquet she made for me was stunning and she even made a small one for our daughter. There are not enough wonderful things to say about her and her gorgeous venue!!

    We fell in love with Sanibel Moorings since the first time we visited. We had our elopement ceremony here during Sunrise, and it was absolutely stunning. It was very special that I got to (my husband actually) picked the flowers from the garden for my bouquet. Kari put together a beautiful bouquet for me. It was exactly what we always wanted, private and special. Kari is very easy to work with, and everyone as the resort is very nice. They offer free kayaks, canoes and beach chairs & umbrellas, and they also have bike rentals available. I would deff recommend this for anyone looking fro a quiet and intimate space.
