Coral Sands Resort

ents....absolutely AMAZING!!!!) and one of our wedding venue options was Coral Sands. My now husband and I decided this was our top choice and we have no regrets! Such a great experience with everything! I cannot say enough great things about our "Plan B" wedding. The gazebo area where we got married was beautiful! And even though it of course rained on and off throughout the day, they made it work and the transition was so smooth and easy. Plus, we were able to stay in their honeymoon cottage the night of our wedding. It was so cute and perfect!! Thank you so much to Katie Prestwood and Coral Sands for making our special day that much more special!!

We planned our wedding in 7 months and from the moment we said yes to Coral Sands it was smooth sailing. My parents live in Ormond Beach and my husband and I live in Philadelphia so it was partially planned from a distance. Katie was responsive and anything we threw at her she made it work. Different colored chairs, long tables instead of round, a caterer that had never done a wedding before, new band, a million questions from me, no problem! She thought of things we wouldn't have thought of like a sound system for the wedding to make sure our guests could hear over the waves. We did our wedding on the beach in front of the tent at 3:30pm, end of November as the sun was setting. (I would say do the beach it was perfection, they do have other options but why not!) Katie not only helped with the rehearsal the day before but was there to take my sandals from me before I walked down the aisle. The tent, table, chairs and linens were all beautiful. Since it was later in the year she even got us heaters just a week out from the wedding. They were perfect for our older guests. She checked in with us the day before and the day of but was never intrusive. Ormond beach doesn't require a permit for bonfires, just a fire ring which we got from amazon and did one on the beach after the wedding, a great ending to the prefect beach wedding/party. Most of our out of town guests stayed in the cottages and hotel. They couldn't say enough about how accommodating the staff was. The resort looked beautiful and it was so nice to have everything in one spot. Our guests continue to say it was the best, most beautiful and fun wedding they have ever been to. My husband and I keep saying we wish we could do the wedding day again. We will be back to Coral Sands to relive the best day of our lives.

She is great to work with and very responsive to all of our questions and suggestions. All of our guests, who were mostly from out of town, raved about the hotel, the grounds and the kindness of the staff at Coral Sands. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to have our daughter’s wedding.
