    My dream wedding come true

    My husband and I were not planning on having a wedding knowing how expensive elegant weddings typically are. We found WaterVue at Brooks St. online and saw they had an amazing weekday price. The next week we took a trip out to the venue and fell in love. When you're standing in the venue it almost takes your breathe away. We knew this was the perfect place for our wedding and at the perfect cost! Tiffany was incredible in helping us along the way, and especially on the day of our wedding. I knew our wedding would be great and special, but the wedding that it turned out to be absolutely stunned me and I could not have pictured a better or more beautiful day. Thank you!!

    Amazing venue! Gorgeous!

    The venue was so beautiful and honestly was an amazing place to get married!! The day was perfect and the venue was just so breathtaking!

    Kelly my wedding planner was honestly the best thing that has ever happened to me! She truly made our day so beautiful and so special and the attention to detail she used for everything was just amazing! She made sure our day went smoothly and it truly did! Absolutely nothing went wrong at the wedding! And it’s all thanks to her! We are forever grateful for all the hard work she put into our day and I can’t thank her enough!

    Best venue hands down!

    I am SOOOOO GLAD we chose the Watervue at Brooks St for our big day!! We thought about beach wedding, but realized that Watervue offered us protection from rain and humidity (which it downpoured for awhile the day of the wedding) but also provided a huge outdoor space/wrap around deck for us to enjoy the goorrrrrgeous views of the Santa Rosa sound and the weather (once it cleared up). Phew are we glad we picked this venue, to get the best of both worlds!! The decorations package was very reasonably priced and made it sooo stress free and easy knowing we didn’t have to transport anything to/from the venue except for any little added specific decorations (which was minimal because they have most everything you could need, except for a few certain signs I wanted and live flowers obviously). We rented from them the tablecloths, decorations package and the STUNNING criss cross backdrop (which we honestly then saved money by not doing an arch or other flowers, which I preferred-classic, elegant, simple but still gorgeous=>my style). The decorations package included the white drapery in the ceilings, the twinkle lights, various signage and decor items, vases for floating candles, frames for pictures along the hallway (very special and unique touch), and so much more. We had the ceremony, the cocktail hour, and reception all at the watervue, for about 75 people, and it was PERFECT!! We didn’t have to travel to different locations, but it still felt like 3 separate experiences. The cocktail hour was on the amazing wrap around deck. The chairs for the ceremony were moved afterwards to the tables on the other side of the huge center bar, and then there was a very big space for the dance floor right by the DJ booth. The sweetheart table in the corner is perfectly placed under a chandelier and as our backdrop was then the huge wall of windows looking out onto the water. Huge space along the bar for the buffet to be placed, right by the kitchen. Cute little couch sitting area, especially nice for grandmas/older people or those just wanting a comfy spot to lounge while still feeling close/involved in the dance floor excitement. The multiple French doors all opened at the end of the night.. the cross breeze was heavenly!!! especially after we were hot from dancing all night. Tiffany was very responsive, professional, and flexible/available to give us a tour when we came into town last minute. Ample free parking. GREAT little bridal suite for me to hide in before the ceremony (my husband and I did not want to do a first look/see eachother beforehand), awesome spot in the back (away from the bridal suite) for the groomsmen to kick it & chill with tvs & a bar. The Watervue was PERFECT for us & our day, and we 1000% recommend this venue!!!!

    This venue was absolutely stunning!

    Tiffany is the best!! She has such a great energy! She made everything easy!! The venue is absolutely beautiful!! It has amazing water views, and simply beautiful. The venue is such a great size whether the party is large or small. Everything felt intimate but not stuffy. Tiffany have solutions to problems we didn’t even think of, she was always on hand to assist with everything. She made sure everything ran smoothly and all vendors were on the same page!! I absolutely loved how beautiful everything turned out!!

    Amazing venue!

    We had our wedding ceremony on the beach and would have loved the whole wedding out there, but decided we needed an indoor venue for the reception being it was August in Florida. We were so glad we did because we found Watervue at Brooks Street. We fell in love with the venue from the layout, to the inside architecture, and the wrap around patio overlooking the bay. It ended up being the perfect spot for us and our wedding. The staff was great who helped us schedule and coordinate everything for the venue space. They were very responsive and knowledgeable. Tiffany was amazing with getting everything set up for us. After having our reception there, we wouldn't have had it any other way any month of the year. We highly recommend the Watervue!

    Amazing venue!

    We had our reception here and used the catering and it was perfect! The inside was beautiful and all of our guest loved the wrap around deck overlooking the water. We also used the decorations they had. They looked great and made things so much easier not having the hassle of finding and setting everything up. Tiffany and the team was very accommodating and down to earth. The food was delicious. We did the pasta bar and appetizers and everyone raved on how delicious everything was. We would definitely recommend to anyone who is interested.

    So pretty!

    Tiffany and Kelly was so great to work with! They let us pick out decorations and they set them up which made things so much easier. They were also very flexible and easy to get in touch with. We choose a package that included catering. We did a pasta bar and every body loved it! The decorations were so cute as well.

    Perfect venue

    WaterVue is the PERFECT venue! It’s so beautiful and is in a great location on the water. It’s big enough for a large group (we had 160 at our reception) but still feels intimate and manageable. The staff is amazing and helpful! Tiffany, Wayne, and Faith go above and beyond.

    Most beautiful wedding

    What can we say about this beautiful location but wow!!! Amazing location; amazing views; amazing staff. We had both our wedding and reception at Watervue. We were able to keep the events separate then later turn the the ceremony location into a dancefloor. The floor set up is ideal for having both events in one place and feel like you're getting your money's worth. We ended up using Tiffany Merrell as our wedding coordinator and she was our Day of Coordinator. How happy were we?!!! Ecstatic. She dealt with a lot of stuff including some pretty heavy stuff and got on with our day without missing a beat. We can't say more wonderful stuff about this place or this coordinator. It was worth spending an extra $1000 to have her be the sounding board. All we had to do is make ultimate decisions and turn up. It almost makes us miss this place and our build up. You would be crazy to pick somewhere else. Solid 5 stars!!!

    Perfect Florida Wedding

    WaterVue was amazing! Tiffany is so nice and flexible! Because of rain, we had to move the ceremony from the beach to WaterVue. Tiffany and her team worked seamlessly to get everything prepared with Forever I Do Weddings! It was a perfect day!

    Everything was absolutely perfect!

    We had our wedding reception at WaterVue and it was an absolutely spectacular venue. All of our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful the venue looked. We used the decoration package offered with the rental and when we arrived everything was already setup and looked great. Tiffany was an absolute godsend as well. She was easy to work with and very accommodating with all our requests. We rented WaterVue with her and hired her as our day of coordinator. Everyone should do that! She ensured everything ran perfect the entire night. She coordinated with all of our vendors (many who she already knew very well) and took all the stress of the evening off of us. She worked so hard to make sure every detail of our reception was perfect. Every time I needed something she was there to make sure it happened, and she ensured all of the activities from dinner to the cake cutting to the first dance went off without a hitch. I cannot say enough good things about Tiffany or the WaterVue and highly recommend that anyone who uses the WaterVue for their event hire Tiffany as their day of coordinator.

    So pretty!

    WaterVue was a beautiful venue. We absolutely loved being right of the water. Our guests loved the location and the wrap around porch. The only complaint we had was that the floor and grooms retreat was pretty dirty when we arrived to the venue, nothing too extreme! The groomsmen enjoyed using the grooms retreat though. The bridal room is a little small but useable. We had our ceremony and reception inside, with a total guest count of 120. The floor plan was a little tight for 120 but it worked and the guests still enjoyed it. We also used the backdrop which was beautiful! We are sure it is going to make the ceremony photos look awesome. The staff were easy to work with and pretty helpful when needed. We would definitely recommend WaterVue to anyone who asked.

    Beautiful venue on the water!

    This venue was the first one I looked at in the area where I could see myself celebrating with my friends and family. The decor is beautiful and everyone got wonderful pictures at sunset. All my guests commented on how beautiful it was!

    Besides the beauty they were incredibly flexible. They let me add on the decor package at the last minute saving me and my family money and time attempting to craft. They were patient with us coming by to visit for planning purposes and always easy to get ahold of.

    Thanks for a great evening!

    The first time I visited WaterVue for an event I knew it would be a great place for a wedding. When I got engaged it was the first place I took my fiance to visit and eventually it stood out as our perfect venue. It was a little more expensive than we wanted to spend but there is something magical about the way the facility looks in the day time and at night, and it needs very little in the way of decorating to create an enchanting venue for a wedding reception. Additionally, it has the perk of being on the water, without having to deal with sand and tourists. We arrived to the reception by boat which was an AMAZING grand entrance. The staff was so helpful and accommodating as we prepared in advance for the reception and planned everything, and they were so helpful day of to get everything finalized and taken care of exactly as we had hoped. It was a magical day and I would highly recommend that you consider this venue for your special day. We did, and we loved it.

    We are so happy we chose WaterVue for our wedding reception!! The building is beautiful, with an AMAZING view all around from the two wrap around porches. It's so pretty inside, too! It has such a warm, inviting atmosphere. There are already a bunch of string lights, chandeliers, and cute signs everywhere, so you don't have to decorate too much. All of the staff we worked with were amazing. Mary was so responsive and accommodating over email, which was so appreciated since we were planning the wedding from afar. Tiffany and Wayne were so informative and helpful when we were touring the property, setting up before the wedding, and during the reception to make sure everything ran smoothly. We also appreciated being able to hire all of our own vendors, so we could have people we truly loved and helped to save costs! We can't recommend or thank WaterVue enough for the wedding of our dreams!!

    I fell in love with this venue the second I set foot inside the door. I could live there it's so beautiful. I didn't even look at any other venues, I book right away. Everything I was looking for, private parking, on the water with out being too beach like, rustic and warm, lots of natural light.
