Aliza Sent on 06/21/2023Wedding at Pensacola Beach Resort
I’ve hosted multiple conferences at The Pensacola Beach Resort over the last 6 years or so because it is the nicest, prettiest, and most accommodating resort around. So it was no question where I would have my wedding when the time came. The staff there have become good friends. The food and drinks are always phenomenal but our wedding food was even more amazing and we still get compliments about it. Bridget spent over a year communicating with us and making sure we had everything we could dream of for the big day. From getting ready in the huge bayside suite (fit all 10 of us), doing a private vow reading and taking epic portraits on the main balcony, walking down the white fluffy sand aisle to an immaculate Gulf view, partying the night away at the Sandy Rose, then breakfast in bed before spending the day at the beach and pool with our loved ones, it was quite the perfect experience.The Pensacola Beach Resort's reply:
This review means the world to us! Thank you so much for choosing us for your special day. Everything was beautiful and the pictures turned out perfect. Hope you come back to see us soon! -

Tara Sent on 03/31/2023They Made Our Wedding Weekend So Magical
MAGICAL, is to best describe it, when trying to find the words on how the staff at the Margaritaville Hotel on Pensacola Beach, made us feel, during our wedding weekend earlier this month. Not only did they go above and beyond for us, but they also made our wedding guests who were staying at the hotel, feel extra special as well. And overall, the entire experience was just above and beyond what we ever expected it to be. Bridget, who works as the Wedding & Events director at this hotel, had gone out of her way for us so incredibly much, and in so many ways! From the start of booking everything a year ago, to helping us create a room block for our guests who were traveling, to making sure she was in constant communication with me and with helping us or helping our guests with anything needed over the months... she has just been FANTASTIC through the entire process. Then our wedding weekend arrived, and Bridget and the rest of the staff at the hotel made us feel so special. They helped us hand out welcome bags to our guests. They wished us a "Happy Wedding Weekend" on a sign in the front lobby/front desk area. They provided us with the best/largest room in the hotel, gifted us with champagne and balloons, and they gave us a great discount for our weekend stay, since we were the bride and groom. The kitchen staff even went out of their way to cater breakfast foods up to our room the day of the wedding, for our bridal party. We were honestly just blown away by how great the level of customer service was, and we felt SO special during our big weekend. Bridget, and the entire staff at Margaritaville made it a truly magical and unforgettable weekend for us, and we will forever be thankful for that!The Pensacola Beach Resort's reply:
Tara,
This means so much to us! You were the most beautiful bride! Working with you was such a pleasure :) -

Ashley Sent on 11/24/2022Perfect Wedding Venue with a great staff
Everything was perfect from the stay to the wedding venue/day itself. Bridget was the Coordinator at Margaritaville and was incredibly professional and made sure everything went perfectly. David, the Bell man was amazing and made sure everything got where it needed to go. The whole staff the entire time was so friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and beautiful with great views of the Gulf and the Bay. I couldn’t recommend Margaritaville more for your wedding or event. October is a particularly good month on the beach as well. -

Breanne Sent on 04/06/2022Easy, freezing beach wedding & reception
Of course I picked THE coldest day in the month but I was offered options to amend our vow renewal with ease. Bridget followed up with me daily leading to the wedding to make sure I was supported and had all my questions answered. The food was great, service was awesome and my only complaint was temperatures - which the venue can not control. Staff throughout the hotel was super friendly throughout my stay but several guests reported minor issues (lacking full supplies in rooms upon check in and one incorrect charge to credit card) with their rooms which were corrected quickly. I would absolutely recommend this venue to anybody who is interested in a beach wedding. You will need to provide decorations and have someone set up for you, but this was already in my plans.The Pensacola Beach Resort's reply:
Breanne,
Thank you so much for your detailed experience and all these beautiful photos!! Everything turned out so beautiful :)
It was a pleasure getting to work with you to make your day special! Despite the cold... you were a true champion that day!!
We hope you will come back and see us again :) -

Andrea Sent on 07/15/2021We LOVED Margaritaville
We had the most fun celebrating our wedding at Margaritaville Beach Hotel. We got to spend some extra time with Bridget Kelly due to the pandemic and she was a total ROCKSTAR through it all! She always had answers to our many questions and made certain that the staff at both the hotel and Landshark would make the necessary sacrifices to make our dreams a reality. With 40+ people making the trip from Iowa to Pensacola Beach, we couldn't have done it without her! We will definitely be back to spend time at Margaritaville for many years to come! -

I can not recommend Margaritaville Beach Hotel highly enough! Bridget is truly an asset to this hotel! She went above and beyond to make sure that our day was everything we wanted it to be. The venue was beautiful the hotel and hotel staff are phenomenal. All of our guests are still talking about our wedding, and that’s saying a lot coming from a bunch of New Orleanians! -

Monika Sent on 11/05/2019Fantastic Venue for Destination Wedding!
This was the best possible choice for our destination wedding and large family party. The hotel staff were accommodating and all of the guests staying felt as though they were on a relaxing getaway. Our ceremony was held on the beach and reception just a mere 100 ft. away at the land shark. Everyone appreciated how close the two were, especially once it all came to an end and they we’re just a short walk from their rooms. Our wedding contact, Bridget, was simply amazing . She worked with us for months and months answering questions and literally going above and beyond to accommodate whatever we wanted to make happen for our special day. Executive Chef Eric and Chef Scott received the most compliments of the night, everyone loved the food and couldn’t get enough of the surf n’ turf selection! With an open bar for the night, everyone was able to have something they enjoyed, signature cocktails and all! Absolute best deal for a reception and venue I’ve ever seen! It was the best day of my life!The Pensacola Beach Resort's reply:
Monika!!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! I have never seen such a unique and beautiful couple! I am so glad your special day was everything you hoped for.
We hope you and your family come back to see us again soon! -

Caitlin Sent on 08/29/2016This is the most beautiful venue!! We could not have asked for a better wedding ceremony and reception. The food was amazing. Jessie was so very helpful the entire time, answering a million of my email questions. We had a food tasting prior to picking our menu which was the most amazing experience. We almost wanted to try another menu just because the food was that good!!!! Everything was perfect and we will forever have a special place in our heart for Margaritaville now!! -

Lindsay Sent on 09/28/2014I can not say enough about Jessie and the Margaritaville hotel! All of my guests were complementing on how nice the hotel was and how they wish they would have had a beach wedding like ours. Jessie was awesome! Any questions or concerns my husband and I had she was there to answer right away. She made everything so easy and stress free! We want to thank everyone at the hotel that made our wedding such a success! -

User1538750 Sent on 02/18/2014Jessie is really wonderful to work with. There are some really great options to have a reception in the area, but Margaritaville was perfect for us! We had our reception in Land Shark landing. It felt so much more relaxed than a standard banquet hall reception. It was a great party! Jessie did a great job helping us set up and she is really creative when it comes to table settings and seating! She really listens to requests and does her best to accommodate you. She doesn't tell you things that she tells everyone. It's refreshing! -

Cary Sent on 07/11/2011After looking at many venues for my reception, I chose Margaritaville because its unique style, location, upscale classy yet laid back atmosphere, unmatched beauty and manager LeeAnn Collins and Chef Eric Troupe, who worked tirelessly with me for months to put together the perfect site plan and personalized menu. Thanks to a lot of planning and working with two truly creative professionals like LeeAnn and Eric, my reception was like a dream come true. My guests are still raving about the magnificent food and atmosphere TWO months later!!!! The celebration was so classy and relaxing with the breathtaking views and five star service throughout. It could have been on television! I cannot thank the staff at Margaritaville enough for going above and beyond for myself and my out of town guests. They go beyond five star service. They treat you as if you are the only bride in the world and make sure that all your needs are met before you have to ask! I cannot say enough about how outstanding and refreshing Margaritaville is in its attention to detail, guests, decor, atmosphere, food, and staff. If you are looking for a REALLY fabulous venue and an experience that will delight your senses and your heart, you must visit Margaritaville. It is the only venue in the area that will astound you and give you the absolute best experience for the most important day of your life. -

We could not have asked for a better spot for our big day! Bridget Kelly, Director of Sales here at Margaritaville Pensacola was efficient, kind & caring. Our venue, The Landshark provided a perfect setting. We couldn’t have asked for better service!

Wedding week!
I’ve always wanted to get married in Pensacola. Bridget was so great to communicate with and to plan with. She recommended Olga (your dream beach wedding.com) she was amazing as well and made the beach wedding look how we wanted it. Even with the rain we still got married (you’ll see in pictures in the rain on our skin and umbrellas) and loved how everyone in the hotel watched our wedding from their balconies it was the coolest thing. We had about 60 people come from our small town in Illinois for us!
Bridget and olga both had other options for our wedding since it was raining but we said no we wanted our beach wedding that we’ve been dreaming about. Rain or shine! Margaritaville beach hotel had amazing food options, we loved the food, and so did our guests.
The only tiny thing that we wished would have happened for us is having a couple nights compt since we had 14 rooms booked and had over 25 guests doing business with them but all in all I wouldn’t change anything that happened. The staff was nice and pleasant to work with and helped with rides for us and the trolly is right across the street so that was awesome.
The pool was amazing as well and the beach was beautiful and clean! I would recommend them to anyone that dreams of a beautiful stay and wedding week with your guests!The Pensacola Beach Resort's reply:
Mariah,
Thank you so much for taking the time to express you experience with us! It was such a pleasure helping plan your big day! Everything was amazing, despite the torrential down pour minutes before the ceremony! haha. You guys handled it so well and the pictures are amazing!! We really hope that you both will come back and see us in the future :) -

Beach Wedding
Our wedding at Margaritaville was amazing! The wedding coordinator Bridget was so helpful in the planning process. The staff during the reception was amazing and went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of and happy. If you're looking for a relaxed beach venue that you can dress up or down, this is perfect! -

Perfect Beach Wedding
We could not have chosen a better venue/vendor for our perfect beach wedding. Margaritaville offers so many services besides the location and Bridget was incredibly helpful and easy to work with. They have the beautiful beach location, beach style tiki bar, outdoor reception area and indoor area incase of inclement weather. The hotel style is also so beautiful, really giving our guests the feeling that they are on vacation and not staying at just any hotel! We love Margaritaville and cannot recommend them enough to anyone wanting the perfect beach wedding!The Pensacola Beach Resort's reply:
Danielle,
Thank you so much for sharing your experience and beautiful photos with us! We loved celebrating you and Donnie! We hope to see you both again! Maybe an anniversary trip ;) -
