We recently had a beach wedding in Santa Rosa Beach, FL though DWC and we cannot say enough wonderful things about them! My husband and I traveled from Michigan for our wedding and...
from the time that we visited Billy and Susan almost a year and a half ago to plan our wedding, we felt so welcomed! Billy and Susan are so kind, helpful, and genuinely enjoy what they do. They helped us plan every detail of our wedding, including our flowers, food, and cake. We had Morih (sp?) as our wedding coordinator and she was fabulous! She was very helpful in making sure everything smoothly the day of our wedding and she made everything easy on me as the bride. We also had Jeff as the DJ and Chris as our bartender, who were also awesome and really kept made sure our guests had a great time. Even though we were planning our wedding out of state, the ceremony and reception details were perfect, which is great considering we didn't get to see everything in person before everything was finalized. All in all, working with DWC was an excellent experience and we highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to get married in the Destin area! Thanks again Billy and Susan!!
10.22.16- I have always dreamed of a beach wedding in Destin. I found the Destin Wedding company while searching the web for options for weddings. They were the total package, they...
did everything. As a Bride traveling from Missouri that works night shifts this was a dream! My husband and I flew down in April and set everything up with Susan and Billy for our October wedding. It was awesome! To say I was nervous before we met them was an understatement. I had no idea how everything was going to flow, but after the one day of meeting with them and them discussing our day my nerves were gone. We were done dealing with wedding issues until we arrived for our wedding. This was the easiest way to plan and execute a wedding ever! I didn’t have to deal with how/when the flowers were arriving, how the music was going to be set up, or anything to do with the caterers. They handled it ALL!
Along with all these good things there are always small things that happened that of course only a bride notices, but it was things that mattered to me. While sitting at the reception I noticed that we were missing a table. We knew our space was small and tables would have to be broken down for dancing, but one table never was set up for guests. I just felt awful for my guests that were squeezed together while some were standing. Another piece that upset me was that my coordinator brought her daughter to help her out. While this didn’t bother me at all, my guests felt that she wasn’t helping out and was rude when asked to move for family members. I feel that every other review I have read stated that their coordinator stepped in and took charge, and I just felt mine did not. My photographer and my mom stepped in to make sure things continued to go smoothly for the ceremony. Also, while accidents happen my personalized toasting glass was broken before the reception even started, no this isn’t a major thing, but I’m a sentimental person and this meant a lot to me.
We did have issues with the neighbor hood allowing our DJ to set up speakers, Billy and Susan came right over and handled the situation- I wasn’t worried about it I knew it would be handled. Our DJ, Shane, was awesome. He did whatever it took to make sure we had music going. He carried his speakers up and down all the sets in our house multiple times all so it would go perfect for me!
Our photographer Sandi was the absolute BEST!! I cannot express how thankful I am to have had her team on my wedding day. She made sure everything I wanted happened. She felt like a member of my family that day. No matter how silly or small something was, she took it seriously and made sure she did her best to make it happen. When it was time for the wedding to start and I could hear all sorts of voices in the house and was super upset that people were not seated and ready to go, she took over and found out what was going on for me. She knew my main goal was to keep our timeline and she did all she could to make sure that happened.
Howard with Our Greenhouse did an AMAZING job on my flowers. They were all I could have ever asked for and more! He had all the colors of coral that I wanted along with succulents and thistle berries.
Our minister Shane was awesome as well. It was hard for me to not know the minister. Shane made it feel like we weren’t just meeting him for the first time.
With all the good and the little bad I wouldn’t want any other company.
This is the hardest review to write!! Not because I have nothing to say, but because I have soooo much to say about Destin Wedding Company!!! I knew I couldn't a destination weddi...
ng all alone, so I did some research and found DWC and decided to give it a shot! Let me just say, I was NOT disappointed!!! We went down for a whole day and met with our wedding coordinator (Randa) and picked out essentially everything for the wedding. I am a bit of control, OCD, type A personality so it was so difficult to put something so meaningful into someone else hands, but I did it! I knew I wanted to spend my wedding day with my girls drinking mimosas and getting all dolled up, and that's exactly what I did! I never lifted a finger - and it was fabulous! DWC is on the ball, they were great with getting everything planned, setting up, tearing down, dealing with everything that pops up along the way. Susan and Bill are probably the sweetest people ever and were really attentive during this whole 1.5 year long process. Calmed my fears about the weather too (two weeks away from the wedding, Type A personality like I said haha). Now let me talk a little about my wedding coordinator Randa. I'm not sure I could have survived the weekend, or heck the whole wedding process, without her. My dad is a retired Army Colonial, so he's very schedule, time specific oriented and even he was super impressed with DWC and Randa - which is huge!!!!! She had everything down to a T the day before and day of the wedding. She took charge and got things done, and had such a wonderful attitude the whole time! She took control of things that went wrong with other vendors and even had a drink in my husband and my hand before we even entered the reception!!! She was attentive to us the whole night, while still running around and doing everything else. In short, hire these guys- you won't be disappointed!!
The team at Destin Wedding Company was a pleasure to work with! Planning a destination wedding so far away was not an easy task!! The Destin Wedding Company made my wedding day a s...

Thank you, Destin Wedding Company, for my dream wedding. Everything was EXACTLY as I had envisioned. My entire wedding was planned from afar via email and phone. But Susan saw my...
vision and made it a reality. I absolutely LOVED my coordinator, Victoria. She was so accomodating. She made sure everything went according to schedule and smoothly. She checked in on my husband and I while we were getting pictures after the ceremony to see if we wanted appetizers, drinks, or anything else and continued to do so throughout the night. I can't say enough good things about her. Our DJ, Ward, was also great. He played all the music we gave him and kept the crowd going all night. The cake and food were amazing! Cheryl was sweet enough to mail us cake samples so we could choose our favorites. And it was gorgeous!! We got so many compliments on it! Suzan did a wonderful job on the flowers. I was VERY particular about how I wanted them to look, and they were perfect! The wait staff was also great. Thank you so much Susan, Billy, and the rest of the Destin Wedding Company!! Bravo!
I cannot recommend The Destin Wedding Company enough for your destination wedding. Susan and the entire staff made the whole planning and day-of experience stress-free. And our w...
edding day was perfect! The ceremony was beautiful and our guests raved about the food and desserts at the reception. Our day-of coordinator, Victoria, was delightful. She couldn’t have been more on top of things. As the bride, I felt like I didn’t have to lift a finger the entire wedding day. We can’t thank the Destin Wedding Company enough for making the most important day of our lives unforgettable. You will not regret using them for your wedding and/or rehearsal dinner.
From day one The Destin Wedding Company was nothing but the best! I live in Michigan and getting married in beautiful Destin was a dream come true. Billy and Susan were over the t...
op and I never worried once about anything a bride should worry about it. Everything was PERFECT! I relive that day over and over everyday and couldn't have done it without them!
The Destin Wedding Company was a perfect fit for us! The goal for our wedding was to show our friends and family the love that my groom and I share, to have a stress-free wedding ...
so ALL could enjoy and for our guests to have the time of their lives at our destination wedding. Because of the Destin Wedding Company, all of these things were made possible!!
Best Reasons to Use This Company for Your Wedding:
*They answered my phone call EVERY SINGLE TIME I called them. This meant a lot to me being a bride from Kentucky when I could not just make a trip down to Destin for every little detail. If the wedding planner could not talk at that moment, she would call me right back!
*They went over and beyond with special touches to make it very personal to my husband and me. Yes they had their own "stuff" to use for the wedding, but there were always options to make sure it was exactly what we wanted, not just we they had available to use. The florist even ordered special vases for our wedding to work for the tables at our venue!
*The wedding planner and the coordinator that I had were some of the sweetest and most organized ladies I have ever met. They made me feel like my wedding was their wedding by being so involved and thoughtful to make it such a perfect day! I even miss them now that it's over since they were such a huge part of our day, and we were in communication with each other weekly for months!
*The Destin Wedding Company had to completely MOVE my wedding venue due to the threat of a Tropical Storm....TWO DAYS BEFORE THE WEDDING! Most brides would have absolutely panicked at the thought of this, but I was incredibly calm because the wedding planner already had a back-up place for us before we even knew our venue was closing! They were amazing....as was our new venue!
I advise you to definitely choose this wedding company for your fairytale wedding. There were so many to choose from, and I am so thankful we took a chance on this one. I have to say, we did not have one single thing go wrong for our wedding. It was absolutely perfect (and sunny)! We had compliments from most everyone that attended the wedding that it was simply beautiful. Thank you, Destin Wedding Company!!
The DWC made all of our dreams come true. I cannot say enough about our wedding! Everything went smoothly--- from the planning, to the ceremony, to the reception--everything was ab...
solutely perfect. Susan and billy are so great to work with and a BIG shout out to Chris too! Great people! Love them! Also on the day of, Randa (& her team Melissa and Paula) did a great job facilitating everything and making sure Brandon and I had anything we needed/wanted. I can honestly say that we had no complaints and we def felt that we got what we paid for. Also, our wedding home, vista del mare was spectacular ! So much hard work and time was put into our wedding. Also Susan Lesko (florist) and Cheryl Pietrocollo with The Cake Destination, Sandi and Dennis with destin beach photography--- they were all amazing! Best day of my life. I'm so glad I found DWC and they did our wedding. I would recommend them to anyone!
The DJ pronounced all of the names wrong (even after he asked me to write them phonetically for him) and I read the names to him 2 different times and he read them to me once. This...
was embarrassing. He played a song that started with F*** really loud and apologized saying "I didn't review that song before I played it to be sure it was edited" -- I assumed that was a DJs job. He also didn't play any songs that were new... The hits of the night were "To the Window; To the Wall" "The Duggy" and the other classic wedding songs.. electric slide, etc. Fortunately, we had a playlist of some songs we wanted (and those we liked of course). Unfortunately, the DJ comes with the Destin Wedding Company "all inclusive" package(which isn't really the truth), so if you can request not to have "Justin" you will be better off.
Was more than pleased with everything Destin Wedding Company did for us! They did a beautiful job!
