I didn’t really know what to expect when planning a destination wedding. After a google search I reached out to Florida Weddings and I’m so glad I did. For several months I worked with Debbie over the phone regarding the planning of which beach, decorations, dates, colors, etc. she was extremely helpful and wonderful to work with. As the date approached I was a little nervous about everything turning out as I had pictured in my mind but I was not disappointed. Dale and Tiffany performed a beautiful ceremony and the flowers Tiffany created were absolutely gorgeous. We received so many compliments on the location, decorations, flowers, everything. Our wedding photographs are absolutely breathtaking and we couldn’t be more pleased. This is a family owned business and they were all so wonderful, accommodating, and extremely kind!!! I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to plan a Florida wedding.

Dale & Debbie, and everyone were so very nice from the day I called them about my interest in doing a wedding to afterward! I’m so happy that I chose to do my wedding with them and they took care of everything making sure I felt comfortable and at ease with planning and the day of. Everything was gorgeous from the bouquet to the photos from our photographer. I really recommend them if anyone is looking to do a beach wedding or wedding with them in general! Very happy with everything!

Due to travel warnings in Mexico my now husband and I decided two months before the wedding to move it to Florida. Dale and his team helped me plan an amazing wedding in 2 months with little to no stress. They were there every step of the way to recommend djs,photographers, etc. Thank you for making my dream wedding come true even for a bride on a budget!

I worked with Dale, Tiffany and Debbie at Florida Weddings, and they were fantastic! They went above and beyond the call of duty. Debbie kept me on track with dates and deadlines, and communicated with me consistently. She listen to all my questions and had great ideas on helping me plan my day. Debbie did such a beautiful job with the flowers. I sent her a photo from Pinterest and she matched it perfectly. All the flowers came out better than I could imagined. Dale did our ceremony. He did such a beautiful job. On our wedding day, he made sure that I was happy with everything, and that I was completely stress-free. The photographer was wonderful. We have so many beautiful photos. We got the photos back in just a few days! Our wedding truly turned out perfect, and I would recommend Florida Weddings to anyone!

I had the pleasure of working with A Wedding Dream In Paradise, Florida Weddings back in 2010. I contacted Tiffany, Debbie, and Dale all the way from Illinois to start planning my Florida wedding ceremony and immediately they started working and helping me plan my dream ceremony. Since my ceremony didn't actually take place until 2011 I had the pleasure of working with Dale, Tiffany, and Debbie for well over a year. Communication with them was so easy. They answered all my questions promptly via email or phone. The wedding ceremony package I chose was very affordable and I truly felt all three employees helped tailor the package to exactly what I was hoping for. The ceremony turned out beautiful, the flowers were gorgeous, and the photographer was amazing. I couldn't have asked for anything more. Truly happy with all the services they provided me and so thankful for how awesome my Florida wedding ceremony turned out. Thank you sincerely.

We got married June 24, 2017 in Naples at Delnor Wiggins Pass Beach. When my husband and I decided to do a beach wedding, I started my research online and came across Florida Weddings...A Wedding Dream in Paradise. I was impressed from the packages they offered , pictures, decor, etc. We chose the Florida Wedding team of Dale, Tiffany and Debbie and couldn't have been happier. We were planning this from Ohio and knew it would be a little challenging but they were so helpful and very easy to work with. I was able to meet with them last August while I was down in Florida and go over details for our June wedding. Dale was our officiant and did a wonderful job. The flowers were absolutely gorgeous and exactly what I wanted. We did have to use a backup that day related to rain but Dale and Tiffany did a wonderful job with getting us under the shelter there at the park. Mother Nature did cooperate enough to get pictures on the beach. Our pictures were done by Scott and he did a fabulous job capturing our special day. We also had Peter as a videographer and very pleased with the moments he captured in the video. They were so easy to work with and patient. We highly recommend Florida Weddings for your wedding . They were great and helped make our day that much more special. Thank you Florida Weddings.

My wedding was a dream come true because of Dale, tiffany and Debbie. Thanks for the wonderful service. Thanks for everything

The Florida Weddings team was absolutely AMAZING in helping my husband and I plan. We were planning this from another state and had several people flying and traveling in. They were super helpful with giving us recommendations for hotels, back up location (weather) and dining for reception. We did the Wedding Dream in Paradise and it was GORGEOUS! They took care of our flower arrangements and they were absolutely stunning. They were all so friendly and attentive and ensured all the details, colors and even position of decor was what I had envisioned. I absolutely recommend using this team for any Florida based wedding plans!

Wedding was June 7, 2017 in Marco Island. My overall experience with Floridaweddings.com was wonderful! I reached out to Floridaweddings.com in February, Dale responded back to me same day. I mostly worked with Debbie, she was very supportive and responded to my questions quickly, and also informed me on things I didn’t think of. I purchased the Intimate Affair Package for 899, since our wedding was going to be small and not very elaborate. Debbie introduced us to Adam who performed our ceremony. Adam was wonderful. He was professional, responsive, and he was perfect for our ceremony. Floridaweddings.com also selected Stephanie to take our pictures…and she did an amazing job. We happened to be in Marco Island when it rained a lot that week, Debbie was very good at communicating with us on alternative plan options and assured us it would be beautiful no matter what, and she was right. I am very pleased with their customer service and well the officiant and photographer they provided for our special day.

We wanted a small sunset wedding on the west coast of Florida. I found Florida Weddings online and liked the package options. Their website is full of information with pictures, locations, and decorations. We initially spoke to Dale who helped us choose the location in Naples, Florida. We live on the east cost of Florida and was unfamiliar with the west coast area. Debbie contacted me the next day with a packet full of useful information for Naples including venues, restaurants, hotels, salons, etc. She worked through all the wedding details with us. We were able to customize our package to include chairs plus additional photography time. Debbie checked in every few weeks up to just days before the wedding. She was always a pleasure to speak with. Dale reached out a few times to go over ceremony details. He helped us with our vows and suggestions for music. They were always available for questions and helped us with backup plans that we wouldn't have thought of. Final decisions were always ours, but they gladly provided suggestions and recommendations based on their years of experience. Everything turned out great! I chose one of the recommended salons and they did a great job with my hair and nails. Tiffany dropped off my beautiful bouquet ahead of time for pictures, the ceremony decorations matched the pictures, the location was beautiful and Dale did a wonderful job officiating. The ceremony was maybe 15 minutes, not long but not rushed either. It was affectionate and done well. He really exceeded our expectations. The photographer (Melinda) they set us up with was great. She made us feel comfortable posing for and taking so many pictures. We arranged for additional photo time at our resort prior to the wedding. I'm so glad we did! Our photos were ready earlier than expected and they are amazing. I still look at them daily. We don't typically write reviews but really wanted to share our experience with this company. We highly recommend Florida Weddings for your destination wedding. Dale, Debbie and Tiffany did an amazing job and were a pleasure to work with. We wouldn't change a thing and would gladly do it all over again!

I live in Michigan and used Florida Weddings, “A Wedding Dream in Paradise”, to plan my destination wedding. From the very first phone call, it was the most amazing experience. Debbie was in constant contact with me throughout the entire process and made wedding planning a breeze. I always looked forward to her phone calls because she made me feel so special and at ease. The decorations that I picked for the ceremony turned out beautifully and were true to what they looked like in the gallery pictures. I sent a picture of the bouquet I wanted to Tiffany, and she was able to get it ordered exactly as I wanted. She also did a great job with my wedding book that came with my package. Dale was my officiant and the ceremony he provided was extremely loving and genuine. I talked to him a few days before my wedding with some concerns about my mom having difficulty with her legs and making it through the sand. He took that in to consideration when he set up the location of the ceremony on the beach, and it worked out great. The photographer that they got for the wedding did an amazing job with the pictures and we had so much fun with her during the shoot. The entire experience was so pleasant and easy, that I never became a “bridezilla” once. I received so many compliments from my wedding guests about the ceremony, and some even said that if they renew their vows, they would use this company. Thank you Dale, Debbie, and Tiffany; you guys are the best!!!!!

Once my husband and I agreed that we would have a beach wedding the search began! When we ran across Florida Wedding's website and we found that the prices were reasonable and we loved the their pictures, so I gave them a call. Dale was wonderful to speak with and after doing research with other companies, I knew Florida Weddings was "the one!" Everything from the planning to the beautiful wedding flowers (thanks Tiffany) turned out perfect! Debbie was very informative and a joy to work with. Planning for a wedding when you live over 600 miles away from the location can be a challenge, but the Dynamic Trio (Dale, Tiffany & Debbie) at Florida Weddings made it easy.

We worked with Florida Weddings to plan our beautiful beach wedding on Marco Island last November, and we highly recommend their business. Starting with our first conversation, Debbie, Dale, and Tiffany made us feel comfortable with every aspect of the planning process. We described all of our preferences for our special day, including: time & location, colors, the style of the archway, flowers, music, the content & nature of our ceremony, and more. As busy professionals living out of state, we appreciated being able to work Florida Weddings who provided an “all-inclusive” service that saved us from coordinating with florists, photographers, videographers, musicians, and officiants individually. Afterwards, Florida Weddings even handled the processing of our marriage license. On the day of the wedding, everything was just as we had outlined during our planning discussions. The flowers and decorations were beautiful. Dale did a great job as the officant, delivering an inspirational and memorable message, while also serving as a “wedding coordinator” for the day. The photographer and videographer did a fantastic job of capturing the moments leading up to the ceremony, the ceremony itself, and the beach celebration afterwards. We were thrilled by the quality of the images and video, as well as their timeliness in providing footage to us. We had a reception back home just three weeks after the wedding, and being able to share the photos and videos from our beach wedding was truly special. When we encountered an issue (that was completely outside of Florida Weddings’ control) with parts of the beach being under construction, they notified us as soon as they became aware of the issue, and they worked with us to adjust the location farther down the beach. Again, working with Florida Weddings was a great experience. They made our wedding beautiful, memorable, and (relatively) stress-free. We highly recommend them for your special day.

Florida Weddings (A Wedding Dream in Paradise) is the absolute BEST company to work with. I would know, as I had previously worked with the worst company. Dale, our officiant, made us feel completely comfortable and our ceremony was just as we had imagined. Debbie, our coordinator, helped us along the way with any questions we had, and answered them quickly. They gave us recommendations for hotels, salons and even restaurants, and I utilized them as much as I could. Tiffany did our beautiful florals swags, bouquet and boutonniere. They looked fresh and gorgeous altogether. Our photographer, Melinda, gave us amazing photos as well. I truly couldn’t recommend Florida Weddings more! They are definitely the wedding gem of the Sunshine State!

You have found the right place! Dale and his amazing team Debbie and Tiffany were incredible! They took care of it all and I didn't have to worry about a thing. We did a very small, intimate ceremony on Marco Island and is was perfection! My flowers were even more beautiful then I imagined. We did a sand ceremony as we were blending two families and was a last minute add-on. I am SO glad we decided to add it. We also added a videographer so we could have the memories forever! The list of vendors they gave us made it easy to pick a salon for my hair and make-up, our awesome baker for our cake and a restaurant for the dinner afterwards. We could not have done this without their team! They made me feel like I was the most important person in the world. We provided a few of our own scriptures and Dale incorporated those beautifully into our ceremony! I was most nervous about the photographer. I did not want to end up with pictures I would hate for life! She was outstanding and when we received our pictures, a week early, by the way, I was BLOWN away and could not stop looking at them and reliving our special day all over again. There isn't a single thing I would change!

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. the picture and video experience was absolutely horrible. the only saving grace is the decorations- this is EXACTLY as advertised. if anything hire them only to set up, do not waste your money for any other service offered. hire an independent photographer and videographer and have a friend do a speaker set up or something. they messed up every single day of aspect of my wedding, the photographer and videographer acted like they had never done a wedding, then they refused to do even minor editing to the photos. the editing to the video was cringe-worthy- I am pretty sure its the same quality i did back in high school when i took the TV production class. graphics, cuts and cues were just horrible. they had no eye for weddings at all. it ended up not being such a bargain either. a year later and I still haven't ordered prints because they photos were so abysmal i don't want them in my house. and honestly a shutterfly album is the way to go, they offer a dated photo album with unprofessional, unedited, point and shoot photos. my guests took better photos. i tried to get the photographers info so i could review him alone since he was the worst of the whole experience. but they refused to give me more than a first name. clearly he was an amateur who had no business shooting a wedding. photographer: rude. kept snapping his fingers and yelling "heyheyhey" to get peoples attention or make them move. I kept asking him to stop taking posed pictures under the arch and he kept snapping away while i was talking. he put a black bobby pin in my hair to keep the wind away but failed to mention it was visible in EVERY SINGLE SHOT and then would not edit an single one. he did ZERO directing, had absolutely no eye for photography, let alone wedding photography. he would take a shot and after every photo (even during the ceremony) check his digital window, as a result he missed half the bridesmaids and the moment my husband first saw me. he gave me zero feedback during the shoot so most of the pictures turned out absolutely horrible. my wedding was nearly a year ago and I never even ordered the prints because they were so bad. video: the photographer kept stepping in the shot. the videographer took footage before the ceremony and told people, including my mother and husband, to PRETEND i was walking down the aisle. he then spliced those shots into the final because his camera was on a tripod filming only me walking down the entire aisle. it was so fake and horribly done! amateur at best. the few directions he had were very dated- I'm talking 1980s end shots. then a final nail in the coffin, I had a single balloon to mark the beach entrance for the guests (so they wouldn't walk down the aisle) and his expert vision of a wedding video resulted in an opening shot to the wedding video showing the single, blue foil, star balloon blowing in the wind dramatically. i mean really.... really. Finally the florist forgot one of my bridesmaids bouquets. thanks. so one bridesmaid did not have a bouquet in everything and it was painstakingly clear........

We got married in Destin, FL in late April. The planning experience I had with A Wedding Dream in Paradise was actually pretty good overall, especially while I was dealing directly with Debbie, who was a very pleasant and attentive lady that simplified the process for us and made follow-up phone calls as our date was approaching. The only problem I ran into during the planning process is that they were a little late in booking a harpist for our ceremony and so by the time they started calling musicians, there was hardly anybody available on our date. After many phone calls by Debbie (she tried very hard) we finally found a violinist that was available so decided to just go with the violin instead of the harp that we originally wanted. Unfortunately, our violinist was practically impossible to get in touch with. The only time she ever returned my emails or calls was when the company called her directly and asked her to respond to me. I didn't have my music selections or even a verbal confirmation from her that she will be there until the day before the wedding! That added some stress to the process for me. It all worked out in the end, however, when she came and played beautifully during our ceremony and reception. The day of our ceremony, one of the staff came to the beach and set up our chairs with bows, our canopy and all our other decorations about 3.5 hours before the event. That would have been fine if they stayed to make sure that everything stayed looking nice by the time all our guests arrived but, unfortunately that was not the case. The wind blew almost all our chairs upside down, it rained on our decor, including the chairs, that were soaking wet up until our guests arrived. Our canopy cover was blown off completely off the poles. I was looking down from my hotel room on this mess 10 minutes before I had to walk down the isle and was so upset because I couldn't reach anybody from the company on the phone to come and fix this. Our guest had to turn the chairs, wipe them down with towels that thankfully our hotel provided, and then right when the ceremony was supposed to start the photographer got in touch with the set-up guy to come and fix the canopy cover (which he didn't even do, he just took it off). Other than this horrible fail everything else went very well. Our photographer was lovely, the nice man who officiated our ceremony did a fantastic job, and our photos came in the mail at a decent time. When I wrote to the company about what had happened I got a response from Daylen, who pretty much told me that he heard that there was no problems and that everything started on time. I think that Daylen needs a little bit of training in dealing with customer complaints in a more understanding and compassionate manner or just let someone else, like Debbie, deal with the customers all together! I didn't enjoy my communications with him one bit! Overall, I would suggest using another company if you are someone who wants everything to be perfect and don't want to stress on your wedding day at all. There are so many great companies in Florida that do beach weddings there is really no reason to compromise!

Florida Weddings did an incredible job helping me plan my destination wedding. I live in Missouri and felt completely comfortable allowing Florida Weddings to handle all the nitty gritty. I was so nervous- I love and need to be in control of every detail, at first. Debbie and Dale did such a great job of walking me through everything and assisting me with every step. Never once did they seem annoyed when I would call or email about silly things. Everything went beautifully as planned on the wedding day. All I had to do was show up. My flowers were even more beautiful than the pictures that I had sent to Tiffany. Our reception was less than 3 weeks after our ceremony and Dale did such a great job of making sure we got our pictures before then as well as the photo slideshow. The slideshow was beautiful and we were able to show it at our reception for the guests that did not attend the ceremony. I would HIGHLY recommend Florida Weddings to anyone. They are more than worth the cost.

The staff at A Wedding Dream in Paradise helped to make our Naples beach wedding absolutely perfect!! Debbie was such a help throughout the entire process of planning- she definitely kept me organized! Dale did a fantastic job with our ceremony & we received a lot of compliments about him! The photographer they selected for us was by far the best photographer we’ve worked with. And the flowers were beautiful & exactly what I had envisioned. I highly recommend A Wedding Dream in Paradise to everyone!!!!

I could never put into words how beautiful a Wedding Dream in Paradise made our special day. We were married on May 3rd, 2013 in Naples, FL. I couldn't have asked for anything better. Debbie stayed in touch with me the whole time on every little planning idea. She would call and check in which made me feel like she cared. Dale was the officiant of our wedding and made our ceremony very personal. He was so very kind throughout the process as well when we had different questions or ideas. I would definitely recommend A Wedding Dream in Paradise to any couple looking to have a Florida wedding. They were wonderful in every way possible. My family and friends even commented on how beautiful everything was and how easily everything went the day of the ceremony. Thank you Debbie and Dale for giving me a wedding that I will never forget!

My husband and I wanted a very small, low key wedding, and that's exactly what we got. We booked the Intimate Affairs Wedding Package, and got music, an officiant, a few decorations, and photography for about $1600. The woman I worked with wasn't particularly helpful, but everything got done and was done correctly in the end. There were a lot of miscommunications in the process, and I did everything myself. Outside of having everything included for such a low price, there really wasn't any reason to actually hire a coordinator. They do have larger packages where the coordinator is much more involved, however. The photographer and officiant were a married couple, and they were very pleasant. The pictures weren't outstanding artistic pictures like you would get if you paid for a wedding package separately from a professional photographer who specializes in such events, but from my research, I found that most minimum photography packages are a couple thousand dollars alone. We got very nice portraits and group pictures, however, and paid another $100 for the cd and rights to the pictures. Overall, it was pretty much exactly what we were looking for. If you are looking for a fancier wedding and have the budget to spend, it would probably be worth your while to book everything separately through professional companies.

They took care of all the details and made my destination wedding as low-stress as possible. I would highly recommend to other destination brides. The cost included the planning services, minister, flowers, music, and photographer.

A Wedding Dream in Paradise was great to work with and were able to answer all my questions. They were suggested to us by a friend, and although I was a local and they usually do destination weddings, they took care of my entire ceremony. The flowers were beautiful, the musicians and videographer were great, and the minister gave us a wonderful and sweet ceremony.

I had an excellent experience with them. Debbie was also so quick to return my phone calls or emails. Tiffany did an amazing job making my flowers!! Daylen performed a lovely and very successful ceremony!!

I have to start my review by saying that my wedding turned out great...BUT...this company did not make it easy. When I first contacted them they offered great info and seemed very helpful and pleasant. Once we got into the details, the service majorly dropped off. We had a lot of problems with communication. Emails that weren't answered, info that wasn't sent, etc. When I called in to express my concern, I got a very confrontational, defensive and unpleasant response that made me feel bad about myself as a human being and bride to be. This company advertises themselves as one that makes the planning process stress free for the bride. I do not feel they delivered. In fact, they contributed to my stress because I constantly had to follow up. I recommend using another company. Or better yet, plan yourself. All you have to do is find a florist, officiant and photographer. If my wedding hadn't turned out nice, I would have given them one star for all the hassle they caused. It's a good value for what you get-our flowers were lovely, the officiant was great and our pictures are beautiful-but paying them to find those services was not worth it. I could have done it myself and not had the unpleasant and stressful experience of dealing with them.

Not as I expected. Enough said!

This company is awesome to work with! They answered all of my MANY questions. Everything was set up on time. You couldn't even tell that the minister was just a officiant. It was beautiful!!

We used a them for a June wedding on a beach on Sanibel Island. I gave them four stars because at times there was communication mix ups, but in the end everything worked out. We got a package that included 2hrs of photography with prints, and arch, bouquets, wedding party flowers, and officiant. It was an awesome deal for the money. They have many different priced packages available, we got a more expensive one. It was nice to have it all bundled. They photographer and florist they use did an awesome job.

A wedding dream in paradise is good if you just want a quiet ceremony on the beach. They really didn't do much as except set us up with a good minister but that was about it. They did always answer questions if you had them, and they also provide a list of venues you can use. They were good for a stress free wedding!

As I planned the wedding, there were times that I was wondering what I was paying A Wedding Dream in Paradise for. However, they really came through on the wedding day. I didn't have to worry about anything. They took care of the florist, photographer, videographer, musician, and made sure that they were all where they needed to be when they needed to be there. I would recommend them to anyone wanting a beach wedding in FL...especially if you live out-of-state.

We were very happy with our experience With A Wedding Dream in Paradise. They were always available for questions and promptly returned my calls. It made the wedding day relatively stress free!! :)

I feel for what we eneded them for we really didn't need to pay these guys as much money as we did. We paid them for the smallest package we needed and they did the very minimum they could get by with. Just an email of paperwork and that's all. They would answer the phones when I had questions but that is all.

We were more than pleased by the service we received. They made it so easy to plan a wedding long distance. We had minimal choices to make, but enough flexibility to personalize. A Wedding Dream in Paradise met and exceeded all our expectations. Photographs were excellent!

It seemed so easy!;Even though I sent pictures of how I wanted my flowers I wish I could have delt directly with the florist...the flowers showed up wrong and we had to send them back and get new ones right before the ceremony. I still (almost a year later) have not recieved the 'copy' of our vows that was supposed to be suitible for framing. They are a small company run out of their home. Overall they worked very hard and we had so many compliments on the actual ceremony. They really listened to how we envisioned our ceremony.
