May 2020 Florida Brides?!

Welcome to the WeddingWire community, Stephanie

White Orchid is a gorgeous venue!! Did you know it was awarded a WeddingWire couples choice award in 2019 for it’s awesome reviews?

Did you view many venues before you chose this one?

View Quoted Comment It was so gorgeous in person. We saw three other venues before choosing this one! We've been searching since February so it took a while to finally nail a place down but I'm glad the hunt is over!

It's stunnig!! Will the ceremony be here also?

My daughter is getting married at the PGA Resort and Spa in Palm Beach in May 2020. We are doing a water station infused with fruit. The ceremony is the only thing that will be outside. The reception in all inside. Crossing my fingers for a not too hot or raining evening!!

My fiance and I are getting married on Sanibel Island and we decided to rent a misting fan from Taylor Rentals.

View Quoted Comment We are not sure of our set up yet. We can have part of the reception inside, either dinner or dancing but we are hoping for no rain and a cool spell too!

View Quoted Comment We love Sanibel! A misting fan is such a good idea! Are you using it for the ceremony?

Im getting married in St. Augustine in May 2020. We were originally going to have our ceremony outdoors but we are having ceremony and reception inside now at the Treasury on the Plaza. Luckily we will be out of the heat but I know during photos we will be outside for some of the day. I am expecting it to be hot and will have to probably touch up my make up before our grand entrance. I'm more worried about rain this time of year !

OMG! Too funny! We were going to book the Treasury on the plaza but it was already booked for my daughters date in May 2020! It was her favorite place. It was hard to break away from that and look elsewhere. But, we did find a great place in Palm Beach, Fl. You got a winner of a place with a great coordinator! We thought we were booking early booking a year and a half in advance, but that place is key and if you want a popular time, book early! Live and learn. I am sure it will be stunning!

I'm getting married in Fort Lauderdale in May 2020! Our ceremony is outdoors and I'll be wearing Indian Lehenga which will weigh about 10 pounds (without jewelry) but thankfully we're on a gorgeous terrace right by the beach so there will be plenty of breeze and a tented cover to shade us from the sun.

There are plenty of portable and discreet air conditioning companies that you may want to look in to. Just an idea!

We are getting married in Punta Gorda May 2020! We are also doing outdoor ceremony and reception. We plan on getting tents and are getting married in the evening to help beat the heat!

Getting married May 28th 2020 at the Pink Shell Resort in Fort Myers and I am SO hoping for NO RAIN!! I live in Nebraska and am hoping the weather cooperates for a beach ceremony!

We are getting married May 30th 2020 in St. Pete on the beach. We selected at 630 pm start time. I’m hoping that it will be a little cooler then. But I’m going to have program fans just in case and a citrus water station for guest during the ceremony. The reception is indoor/outdoor.

Is this an all inclusive venue?

View Quoted Comment Not completely all inclusive BUT they offer a lot! We are doing our ceremony and reception at the White Orchid. They have their own caterer which you work with to create your menu for the event. It's separate pricing from the venue but it's their exclusive caterer. They provide tables, chairs, white linens, plates, silver wear, glasses, a bar set up. Bridal suite and grooms room. It's BYOB. We had to hire a florist, DJ, and photographer.

I’ve reached out to them. Excited to hear back on why they offer and pricing. Thank you!!

I am getitng Married in Lighthouse Point. Florida at Lighthouse Point Yacht Club on March 06 2020. It will be outside right on the inter- coastal. They have a back up room in case the weather does not participate. Hopefully March will not be too hott

Not sure if you check this anymore after the wedding! I am getting married here in May 2022. How was the temperature? Did you do the dance floor outside or outside on the lawn? Any tips to help with the heat?
