I can not even express how amazing Forever I Do was from start to finish!! They were clear and always so positive in their communication and had everything down to a science! They really go above and beyond!!! On day of, they made everything go so easily, smoothly, and literally perfectly!! They worked seamlessly with the Henderson Beach Resort. The day before, a brand cam (Photo Booth type thing) which we had brought ourselves, wasn’t working. We called Sydney. Sydney said no problem and found us the exact same kind available for our reception - the day before!!! She removed any ounce of stress from the event for us and our guests. They truly thought of everything so that we could just have a good time. Thank you so much Sydney and everyone from FID for one of the best weekends of our lives.
My wedding at Henderson Beach State Park was made perfect by these ladies!!! When I started thinking about planning my wedding I knew I wanted a company that would let me do some parts on my own. I had heard good things about Forever I Do from locals, so I reached out to them to inquire on their services and options to do some DIY things. They were wonderful from the start!! They were quick to answer questions and walked me through all the processes of planning a wedding that is 8 hours from my home. Every time I called, Stacey was patient and so kind, even when I asked lots of questions. My timeline that was made for the weekend was a lifesaver! On my wedding day, Sydney, my Day of Coordinator, literally kept me sane, and made sure that everything was flawless and how I wanted it! I can not say enough positive things about her! I definitely recommend going with the Day of Coordination option! I did not worry about a thing because I knew that the team had it all under control! I definitely recommend Forever I Do Weddings!
Best week of my life! I found Forever I Do Weddings initially by Google search and I’m so thankful I chose them for our big day. I live in Tennessee so I was a little hesitant having a destination beach wedding in Florida, but it was absolutely perfect. Stacy is so nice and easy to talk to. She did our engagement photos a few months prior so it was nice to meet her before the big day. Throughout the months of planning, I was hesitant, thinking maybe I needed better communication but soon realizing they had every single little detail under control. Sydney was hands-down the best Wedding Planner I’ve seen, and I have been involved as a bridesmaid in many weddings. She kept everyone in line in the best way possible and she was very sweet throughout the whole process. I didn’t have to ask her one question because she already answered any question I could’ve had before I even brought it up. She made sure during the reception that both Trevor and I are (because we all know how we get side tracked talking to all the guests!), and she kept us in line every bit of it. I wanted it to be laid-back and she capitalized on it! We did the “Complete package”, and had our wedding at Henderson Beach State Park. It was the most beautiful day I could’ve imagined, the only thing I would change is how hot the reception was, but that’s mother nature and we just can’t change those things! I should’ve brought myself a personal fan lol. But otherwise everything was absolutely perfect. I wish I could have my wedding day just as it went like that every year, it was so much fun! I cannot wait to see all the pictures Stacy took on the beach! 10 out of 10 recommend Forever I Do Weddings!
Any questions?
Forever I Do Weddings made our special day absolutely perfect! Everyone that works here is so incredibly kind and responsive. They allow you to have as much or little control as you want throughout the process which eliminated so much stress during planning. Sydney was our day of coordinator and she made sure everything ran smoothly and even helped bustle my dress. Stacy was an amazing photographer and had the sweetest props and poses. We cannot recommend Forever I Do Weddings enough!!
Ashia is absolutely the best!! She came in on time and went straight to work! She decorated everything so beautifully and she brought my vision to life! Everyone was stress free! She transitioned everything so smoothly! She even took pictures for us! We highly recommend her services!! We truly appreciate how well Stacy stayed on top of our plans as well! She stayed in contact with me till the last day! We are very pleased and happy with Forever I Do Weddings services! ❤️
My Beach Wedding Was Perfection!
Stacy and her staff were absolutely AMAZINGGGGGGG. From planning to the execution of my beach wedding day, i had no worries at all. Everything was effortless and this company was a true joy to work with. My day of coordinator was freaking phenomenal. Her name is Aisha (sorry if I spelled that wrong) my family and friends truly enjoyed her. She made sure I was taken care of, I didn't have to wonder about anything. She even danced with my special needs son and my heart was just full. The entire process from beginning to end was wonderful and not stressful at all. So if your looking for a wedding coordinator for your wedding, please contact Forever I Do Weddings. You will not be disappointed at all.
ForeverIDo weddings exceeded all expectations! Their impeccable service and timely communication made our special day absolutely flawless. I can't recommend them enough – 100 stars if I could! Brides-to-be, you're in expert hands with ForeverIDo
Forever I do weddings is the absolute best. Everyone talks about how planning a wedding is difficult but with them it’s easy! They would take all my ideas and turn them into reality. The day of the wedding was also effortless because of them. I’d recommend this company to anyone!
I had an exceptional experience working with Forever I Do. I planned a small, destination wedding with them and they took out much of the stress. They coordinated with their top vendors - each of which were amazing. I didn't have to go back and forth meeting with several vendors which was great with our busy work schedules. The day of the event, Ashia was above and beyond - I can't even begin to tell you how amazing she was. There were a couple small difficulties with the venue that she handled perfectly - some without me even knowing. She truly thought of everything. Many of my guests and family also complimented how great she was. I truly don't think my wedding would have been the same without her.
We got married on June 4th and hired, Forever I Do Weddings, to help us with our destination beach wedding near Seaside, FL. From start to finish Stacy Green and her team were professional, informative, nice as can be and answered all my emails and phone calls promptly. They made us feel like we were their only clients. Sydney, who was our planner on site the day of our wedding, was in constant contact with me, (only because that’s what I wanted) and had everything under control so we didn’t have to worry about anything except for enjoying our special day. Sydney over saw the set up at the beach, placed my flowers on the arch herself so they would look exactly how we wanted them and went out her way to make sure our day was perfect! Sydney was cool, calm and collected even though a brief shower came just before the wedding, which actually was a blessing because it drove the beach goers off the beach, so we could have it all to ourselves. I would HIGHLY recommend Forever I Do Weddings if you need help planning your wedding. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this company!
Thank you Sydney for all that you did for my husband and I. Our wedding was absolutely perfect and everything looked beautiful! You truly are the BEST!
We had a great experience with them. The did our wedding just as we wanted it. Very simple but on the beach! We would recommend them to anyone who wants a beach wedding In Florida!!
I had a phenomenal experience with Forever I do weddings. I wish I could do it all over again!! I had a destination wedding (we are from Michigan and were getting married in Florida). I was nervous to put all my trust in one company, but that was the BEST decision I made!! The planners and coordinators were amazing! Any time I had a question they were very responsive. I was able to get everything in envisioned. They listened to me, and I felt validated. They were very prompt with proposals and there were 0 surprises. On wedding day my dreams came true! (due to weather and a parade we had to quickly make some decisions that were not in the original plan but they quickly came up with a plan B to make sure that everything was still going to happen on time). The day of coordinator Ashia was wonderful! She was very nice attentive. Ashia made sure that things kept on track and everyone knew their role. Stacy and Syndey were awesome! They made taking pictures so much fun and thought of everything! It was seriously the best experience of my life. And let me tell you, the photos were INCREDIBLE!!!!!! I was extremely happy with how the day turned out. I will 1000% recommend them to anyone!
My wedding was beautiful. I couldn’t have asked for an easier experience. Sydney and Stacy were so much fun to work with and really helped keep my nerves calmed. Because of them I did not turn into the bridezilla that I could have.
Even with the weather challenges they were on top of things. I was kept informed all day and given options of different possibilities in case the weather didn’t break.
They made every request I wanted happen if it was possible. The only thing I would change would have been to get the microphone. The loud crashing waves made it hard for guests to hear.
I can’t wait to get my pictures back from them. I would highly recommend Forever I Do Weddings to anyone looking to get married in the area. Wedding planning from Nashville, TN was easy because of them.
The gals at Forever I Do were fabulous. They took care of everything expertly, especially since I was in Tennessee. They are the perfect vendor for a destination wedding.
They had everything ready and perfect for our big day.
My wife and I recently worked with the AMAZING team with Forever I Do Weddings! We got married in June 16th of this year but have been in communication with them since 2019! They were there for every part of the process and always reassured us! For our day, we had the opportunity to work with Ashia. From the moment we met, Ashia made my wife and I feel that we had nothing to worry about. She was immensely professional at the same time of feeling like we’d been friends for years! Every question, she could answer. Every favor, she took care of. She was prepared for anything and helped us to have the day of our dreams. Stacy was our photographer and was able to provide suggestions on the best photos to get as well as accommodating for the photos we wanted to get! This team is top-notch and you need not look further for your wedding planning needs!
We used Forever I Do Weddings for their day of coordinator service as well as a cute sign and some sand dusters. Everyone there is amazing and super helpful. Our day of coordinator was Ashia - who is the absolute best! She made sure our day went smoothly and went out of her way to get us what we needed. We had an issue with our original DJ and Ashia and her team were able to find us a back up DJ with less than a week's notice. I cannot thank her and the rest of the team enough. Our wedding was the best thanks to their dedication and help.
The team at Forever I Do Weddings is absolutely incredible! Very knowledgable, available, and responsive to all our questions. My husband and I got married in Destin, FL and day-of coordinator Ashia was an absolute rock star! From a day that started off storming, she was able to bring a sense of calm, order, and competence - by working together with our resort, she was able to arrange for some additional time before moving our ceremony inside - and before I knew it everything was in place, the sun came out, and it ended up being the perfect day. She even got a few pictures and videos that I was able to save and share with family and friends. Love this team! Definitely invest in their services, you will be so glad you did!
Stacy and her crew were nothing but amazing! Aisha was the best day of coordinator ever everyone loved her!! Communication was great with my husband and I being from Wisconsin and wanted a Destin florida wedding not knowing what to do or where to start Stacy had my back 100% in helping plan! The day was absolutely perfect and would recommend to anyone wanting the perfect wedding. we cannot wait to go back and visit! ❤️
We had our destination wedding in Destin at the Emerald Grande Hotel on 7/31/21. Stacy and Annette from Forever I Do were life savers! Stacy helped with wedding planning throughout the entire process as we live out of town and Annette was our day-of-coordinator. They are both so sweet and made the process so smooth and easy. They took all of my floral, decor, and bakery ideas and completely wowwed us all! My guests are still talking about how beautiful the flowers and decor were and how delicious our cakes were. We are so thankful for the team at Forever I Do and can't recommend them enough. Thank you Stacy and Annette for making our dream wedding come true!
My husband And I got married Jan 2020! After officially hiring Forever I Do Weddings Our stress level went completely Down. I literally got up on our wedding day and got dressed. That’s it!!!!!!!! ANNETTE was a God send and ensured that every detail previously discussed was carried out! Her team was respectful and followed the schedule perfect. Our wedding was beautiful and I am forever grateful. The only thing to note for future customers is that on top of the $950 coordination fee they do charge 24% of the total of the entire wedding. This caught us off guard.....BUT it was well worth it! Just get your coins in order and give them a call!
Stacey and her team are awesome. My wedding was perfect. Annette was my day-of coordinator and she was the sweetest. It was originally planned elsewhere, but due to pandemic, we had to last minute book with Forever I Do weddings. Everything went smoothly and was everything I could have asked for. Can not wait until we get our pictures back.
Forever I Do helped us pull off our small and intimate Vow Renewal painlessly! They took care of the vendors, along with every single detail! As an active duty Air Force Nurse, my husband is also Active Duty Army, we would not have had the time to comb through every single detail. But thanks to everyone at Forever I Do, the day came together beautifully and we couldn’t be more grateful! They work with any budget and they pay attention to every little detail for your big day! Highly recommend!
Stacy and her team were wonderful to work with. It was so nice to have everything taken care of on my big day. They went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect! I would highly recommend using Forever I Do for your wedding in the Destin area.
The whole crew was amazing to say the least! I had the most amazing experience with them. Every email and phone call they were on it for us! Never took more then a business day for responses. We live 750 miles away and they literally made sure everything was perfect. I worried about NOTHING! Zero complaints, they were very professional and it all turned out beautiful. Shout out to Stacey for listening to all my crazy questions, taking your time with me and re writing the proposal atleast 5 times because through the midst of being unsure about certain things YOU were awesome and guided me through it all ! You and your team made this so easy im so grateful!
They were so helpful during all my planning! Made me feel like I was their only client. Our day of planner, Annette was flawless. She had everything the way I wanted it and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Very pleased!
Thank you to the entire staff at Forever I Do Weddings for making our special day magical! From the first phone calls and emails with the staff to the big day with our phenomenal wedding coordinator Annette, who made sure everything ran smoothly and flawless! Annette you are the best! The entire team from the professional photographer, the wonderful vendors and the entire staff's guidance definitely made this the day of our dreams! We could not have ask for a more amazing wedding weekend and wedding day! Our friends and family are still talking about the fantastic time they had and how unbelievably fantastic everything was orchestrated with such elegance and professionalism. Thank you again, we look forward to seeing you all in the future
Please think carefully before depositing money with this company. They will be very responsive until they receive your deposit, then it can take SEVERAL days until they respond. They will promise you services that they do NOT really provide just to get you to book them. On our initial phone call I asked THREE different times if they provided a service and was told absolutely they do. They even gave me details on how they could accomplish this. They then will wait until a week prior to the full payment is due to then tell me the truth, that they actually don't provide that service that had originally been discusse. They also charge excessive amounts. One example is they tried to charge me $600 for less then 40 chairs. I got the same chairs with delivery, set up, and break down for less then $200. I actually worried they wouldn't show up, these were only a few of the issues we had. My advice is save the stress and the money and go with another company. Obviously , we chose to part ways with Forever I do and went with a much more responsible wedding service and had a beautiful, stress free day in the end.
Response from the Vendor on 10/06/2018
We appreciate your feedback and are very sorry that you felt that way about our services. We understand that you feel like we should not take a few days to respond to your emails and we apologize for that. Sometimes it does take a few days ho...
wever that it something we are happily working on. Regarding the pricing, unfortunately, the pricing that you were referring to was for rental pricing and labor which was set by the rental company we were working with. For your specific requests, for use and time needed, it was more expensive than usual and we were unable to negotiate a lower rate from them.
In regards to payment, you stated that we waited to give a quote until a week prior to final payment being due. However our final payments are not due until two weeks prior to the wedding date by credit card and, in truth, you cancelled in mid August for an October wedding. You were not under contract nor asked for final payment. Your statements are very misleading on our business practices and though we apologize that we may not have been the right fit for your event, we do not decieve but rather are very transparent with pricing and options. It has always been paramount to us that you can pick and choose what you need from our services.
We did feel that we treated you very fairly with a refund for what you had placed with us to date so that you could move forward with planning elsewhere.
We are fortunate to be excellent in our field but this does sadden us. In moving forward, we will encourage more feedback on pricing and will look to work with more rental companies to give more options. We do wish you the very best in your new life together and many years of happiness!
Honestly, this was a terrible decision. The owners were great during the lead up but with the simplicity of our wedding, we only went with two services from Forever I Do: outcall hair and makeup and wedding coordinator. The hair and makeup professional was great BUT the company didn’t book her until 2 hours before I was scheduled to walk down the aisle. If you know how long it takes to do wedding hair/makeup, the time of the appt allowed zero time for pictures or any sentimental moments with family.
The wedding coordinator was an absolute joke. He honestly got in the way more than anything. I actually had to ask him to get in his place before the wedding because he was talking to me about the weather while I was trying to have a moment with my father. This entire coordination service was just laughable. Terrible decision. Plan your day with professionals if you want it to take stress away instead of adding to.
Thank you so much for making our special day absolutely amazing. Everything went perfectly and we owe this to you. People kept telling us to prepare for all of the little things that will go wrong but nothing did thanks to you! You're the best! Love, Jen & Jim Ryan
Response from the Vendor on 05/31/2018
Thank you so much!! It was our pleasure and many, many years of happiness!!
Forever I Do Weddings was the absolute best choice for helping me realize my dream wedding. They were there at every step of the process from the very beginning, and made planning a destination wedding much less stressful. Our day-of coordinator was patient, knowledgeable, extremely professional, and overall just a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend their coordination and decorating services for any event.
This company is the BEST. From start to finish they were there. Nothing went undone. Our planner John was the best. He made sure everything was to our liking. I have never felt so at ease. They took care of everything and made sure we had no worries. Definitely would recommend. Great service and always available to answer any questions.
Response from the Vendor on 11/17/2017
Thank you so much, Michelle! You were an absolute joy to work with and many, many years of happiness to you both! :)
A Great Company to work with, Very Professional,
SUPERB service!! Extremely friendly staff and know what they are doing. They answered all of my questions and our wedding day was PERFECT!!! Highly recommend using FOREVER I DO WEDDINGS!!
Fantastic company! Everything worked out perfectly and we couldn't be more thankful for the incredible experience. All staff members were extremely helpful and the wedding coordinator even got to the beach early to snag the perfect spot for our big day! Would highly recommend to anyone looking to get married in the Destin area!
My experience with forever I do was amazing from the first call to the end of the week everything was beautiful from a coordinator Renee she was very patient and kind when we was a little late for the wedding and your photographer she was also amazing she took great quality pictures and the beach was so beautiful from the set up to everything about it I would definitely go with forever I do again if I ever get married again.
Stacey and Annette were absolutely wonderful! From the very beginning of the planning I was feeling overwhelmed with everything that needed to be done, then I found "Forever I Do" and immediately after talking to them I felt more calm. I changed my mind a million times about things and Stacey and Annette were always accommodating and answered all my questions very quickly and gave me prices and other options/suggestions. I brought a lot of my own decorations (including centerpieces) and everything was set up perfectly. The day of everything flowed smoothly.. the pictures on the beach were a little rushed because of sunset but that is because the bridal party was running behind. I haven't seen the pictures yet but it seemed that they were all done at a good time for sunset. Annette made sure everyone was where they needed to be and kept to the timeline for the ceremony and reception. I can't imagine trying to do it without them.. we would have been so lost!! They were both friendly and professional and wonderful to work with! I can't express how wonderful and helpful they were!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
My husband and I got married (just the 2 of us) and "Forever I do" was GREAT! They set me up with a hair stylist (and she did a terrific job on my hair), Stacy took the photos (and they were incredible) and the wedding was just what we hoped for. The weather was kinda rainy and they adjusted our wedding time to keep us out of the rain. It was everything that we wanted. Thanks for making our special day so memorable!!
I was so excited to plan the day I had been waiting for my entire life and I was excited when I found Forever I Do weddings. At first all my emails were answered within a day or two and once I had decided to work through them, everything went downhill. It took sometimes up to a week for an email response about things, and living in Indiana, planning a wedding with someone you can't get in contact with is not easy. But the emails weren't even the problem. The real problems started the day of my wedding. The pastor I had them hire for me was incredibly rude. He complained to my husband before the ceremony that it was too hot and it was too far down the beach for old people to walk. I'm sorry but it's the middle of June in Florida and a beach wedding. Why on earth would you not expect that? And of all the people there to complain to, you complain to the groom? You are getting paid to do this 15 minute ceremony and you knew what you were getting yourself into. Secondly, during our vows I started crying a little. The pastor looks at me and says, "You're fine. Pull yourself together." Not exaggerating at all. I was infuriated and my husband was as well. These are my wedding vows, they are emotional, and if I want to cry the entire ceremony, I can. The next problem came when the wedding party and guests got to the boat for our sunset cruise that we had booked through Forever I Do weddings three months prior. We went to board the boat and they said the card the company had put on file was no longer valid. We had to call our wedding coordinator and she couldn't fix the situation because she wasn't in charge of this so she gave us the owner's number. We called and called and called. It took 30-45 minutes to get the issue fixed so we could get on the boat. To say I was less than happy with the company is an understatement. Planning a wedding is stressful enough, I don't need the people I hired to help to make it more stressful.
Forever I do was absolutely perfect for us! The only thing I regret is not hiring them sooner to coordinate the entire wedding. I just hired them for day of the wedding coordinator and it was the best money spent on the entire wedding. Annette, our coordinator was spot on. She never missed a beat and thought of things before we even noticed. She was great!!!!! Thank you Forever I Do, what a wonderful service you provide with tireless staff!!!

We have known Stacy Green and Annette Peterson for quite some time and helped select Forever I Do in Ft. Walton Beach, FL when choosing a wedding planner. We could not have asked for a more spectacular wedding with every detail carefully contemplated and covered! When the original venue was adversely affected by red tide 3 days before the wedding, Stacy & Annette sprung into action and found another venue that was perfect for our needs. We would highly recommend Forever I Do to any bride or groom who want a beautiful wedding without the worry...
The ladies at Forever I Do Wedding were fantastic. I was very nervous planning my destination wedding 8 hours away but it worked out perfectly. They communicated very well with me and responded to all emails and phone calls promptly. They certainly eased my mind with the planning.
The day of my wedding I was a little frantic! The weather was calling for rain all day! After waking up and being my meteorologist for me, Stacey and I decided to switch the ceremony from that evening to the morning. Luckily all my family and friend were already in town so it worked out perfectly. It's crazy how you get lost in the moment of your wedding that you don't notice the little things. After watching some videos, Stacey was so sweet and faned my dress and tucked my vail in at the alter. The wind was crazy that morning, ha! She went above and beyond!!
I would definitely recommend Forever I Do Weddings. They are so very nice and strive to make your day very special! I also like that you can customize your package and make it your own.
I can't wait to renew my vows and use then again in the future;)
Forever I Do Weddings truly gave me the best beach wedding and were with me every step of the way. Will definitely be calling them in 5-10 years to renew our vows!
I learned so much from Stacy. I thought "wedding planning" was as simple as a few phone calls. Boy was I wrong. The attention to detail, (I mean every little detail), her professionalism and knowledge, and execution are all second to NONE! I would absolutely recommend Stacy to anyone planning an event.
Brava Hair Studio and Day Spa has been working with Forever I Do for few years providing Hair and Make Up services for beautiful brides and their parties. As a premier hair salon we have very high standards and expect every vendor we work with to follow them. We couldn’t be happier with the excellent services, top notch customer care and everything Forever I Do does for their client!
You can always count on Stacy Green and her team to plan and coordinate a perfect wedding! They take care of every aspect, every little detail, so the bride has nothing to worry about and can truly enjoy her special day.
We highly recommend Forever I Do to any bride-to-be who wants her wedding to be absolutely perfect and stress free!
Our wedding was very simple, elegant and full of laughter. From the officiant to the photographer to my wonderful planner, it was everything we wanted. Of course there were light showers (10-15 before the wedding, LOL) but it didn't ruin our day. We were so pleased with everything that was planned. Thank you to everyone at FOREVER I DO WEDDINGS. You guys made our wedding day so very special.
Forever I Do Weddings is an amazing company to work with. Not only do they offer any and every package under the sun but they also cater and assist you every step of the way. My wedding day was nothing but pure bliss thanks to everyone at this company. We not only had a wedding planner and company behind us it was a lot like an extended family. We are forever grateful for this team and all its members. I highly recommend them if you are even remotely considering g a beachside ceremony.

I worked with Forever I Do weddings and could not have been happier. They helped me in every way possible while planning a destination wedding. I live in Illinois and got married in Miramar Beach, FL in April. I had zero concerns about planning my wedding so far away because they were so incredibly helpful. I talked with Stacy numerous times, but I specifically worked with Annette. They were both so very sweet and encouraged me to call if I had questions, concerns or anxiety about anything. When I finally met Annette the day before my wedding, she gave me a huge hug like she had known me forever. She kept my whole family and all of us on track during the whole wedding day. I have a 2 year old son who was a part of our day and she also kept him in line!! After the whole ceremony, she took us to our reception and made sure everything was going smoothly before she left. She even called later to check on us! She was thoughtful, organized, polite, and in control which is what every bride needs!!! My wedding day was absolutely perfect and stunning because of her! I couldnt thank her enough! I highly recommend Forever I Do weddings!!!!
There is absolutely nothing you will have to worry about when you schedule a wedding with this company! Our wedding on the beach in Fort Walton Beach, FL in April 2015 was amazing thanks to all those involved with Forever I Do! With all the advice and connections Stacy and Annette have, all the bride and groom have to do is say yes and let the ladies do their magic!
I have worked with this company since 2011 and have been proud to be one of their business partners. They offer great services at great prices. They keep their commitments and have no bad surprises for a family or business partner.
I recommend them without hesitation.
I wa wsexcited to use this company in March 2014, as I planned a destination wedding from BGEorgia. However, the person they sent did not live up to the agreement to decorate and coordinate properly. She kept telling me to go relax, and she would handle everything. As I prepared myself, I thought she had everything under control, because she kept coming to "check on" me. However, many of my decorations for my beach wedding at a private home were not used. Also, she had the idiotic idea of making my husband turn around until I came out. This might have worked if she'd used common sense and had him turn around only when it was my not turn; instead, she had hm turn his back during most of the ceremony. So, he missed his sons walking his mother and grandmother down the aisle, and the rest of the wedding party!!!!!! This person clearly was not experienced, and this will forever be a bad spot on the memory of our day. I emailed my complaints to the company when we returned from our honeymoon, and they never responded. The least they could have done was to reply; however, since it seems that all employees monitor their inbox, I would not be surprised if this particular lady deleted the email. Definitely not a smart setup. I would NOT recommend them to anyone!
They were wonderful!!! They made our wedding so easy and we could not have done it without them.
We got married September 13, 2014 in Destin, Florida on Miramar Beach. Hiring Forever I Do Weddings to plan our dream wedding was by far the best decision we made. Planning a destination wedding can be very stressful but Stacy relieved me of all stress. Each and every time I spoke with her she brightened my day. You can truly tell she absolutely loves her job and she is awesome at it!!! I would not change one thing about our wedding! Every last detail was perfect. I always seem to worry about the little things so I was nervous about having someone I didn't know decorate for my big day and having a hair stylist that I didn't know do my hair. When I look at pictures I will never understand why I was worried about anything. The hair stylist did an amazing job and I felt like I had known her for years. Walking from our condo down to the beach to get married and seeing all of my dreams turned into reality was something I will never forget! The decorations were exactly like I had pictured, the flowers were beautiful, the coordinator had everyone in place, and Stacy was there snapping breathtaking photos. It was an absolute perfect day for me to marry my best friend!!! When we received our photos and video of the wedding it felt like we were reliving our big day. Stacy is a top notch photographer. I have had many people tell me that our pictures are the best wedding pictures they have ever seen and I would definitely have to agree! We also had a videographer that did an amazing job. It seemed like the wedding went by so fast so we love having a video that we can watch over and over again! I cannot thank Forever I Do Weddings enough. Our wedding would not have been a dream come true without them. For any couples planning a wedding I highly recommend Forever I Do Weddings to plan a one of a kind stress-free wedding!!!
Love,
A.J. and Brittani Stevens
I had a destination wedding on the beach in Destin Florida. I contacted Forever I Do weddings and it was such a wonderful experience. Stacy Greene and the team at Forever I Do took care of everything. They helped pick out the perfect wedding location. They were terrific to work with and made my special day amazing. I explained what I wanted and they did all the rest. Forever I Do took care of the set up, flowers, decorations, officiant and even the pictures. It was so stress free and these ladies were so easy to work with. I would recommend them to any bride. The prices were very reasonable and they are very familiar with the area. I am not a local and they were so helpful!
I was very hesitant about using a wedding company out of state but Stacy and her team came through and were excellent. Every email and phone call was answered within 24 hours. If you are getting married in Florida please give them a call. All you have to do is show up and relax and the rest is taken care of.
Stacie and the staff of Forever I Do Weddings were terrific! Every person we worked with truly made this a great memory. I can't express how wonderful this experience was for our family! Thank you for making this event great!
Forever I Do Weddings helped make our wedding so special. The weather said all week that it was going to rain all day on the day of our wedding. Forever I Do Weddings was willing to do whatever they could to help make our day special despite the rain. They were able to move it to early morning instead of at sunset to try and miss the rain. Although the rain still hit us, the photos and video turned out wonderful! They were always very professional and willing to do whatever they could to help us out. We live in Indiana and had family and friends coming down for the wedding and they helped us make it a beautiful wedding and did everything we asked! I could not be more happy with our choice in Forever I Do Weddings and would recommend them 100% to everyone!
Special thanks to Forever I Do Weddings and especially our coordinator Annette. I managed to plan/coordinate most of the wedding myself but a week before our big day I realized I definitely needed help coordinating the day of events and the ceremony rehearsal. They were quick to respond to all of my phone calls and emails for a pretty last minute request. Annette has the perfect coordinator personality, calm and take charge. I cannot express our gratitude enough. She was so easy to work with and did an incredible job working with our venue to set up for the reception. I cannot say enough good things. Thank you so much for helping a Texas bride feel so relaxed on the big day. Truly grateful.
Good
I can't say enough about Cheri and "Forever I Do" !!!!! IT WAS PERFECT!!!! BREATH-TAKING!!!!! THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH! !!!! the photographer was so patient. ... and Cheri!!!!! No words can describe!!!! She is an AWESOME person. .. inside and out! !!! Just Love Her!!!!!! Thank you again for everything! !!!!!!
My husband and I didn't know what to expect considering we'd never been to Destin, Florida and didn't have a rehearsal. Everything turned out beautifully. During the planning process I received helpful information to narrow down choices and was always greated by a friendly voice on the phone. My friends and family haven't stopped talking about how beautiful everything turned out.
We are supposed to receive our pictures this week (a week after the wedding) when I was told it would take up to four! I didn't have to worry about a thing my wedding was planned in a few short months and turned out better than I could have imagined.
To plan a wedding is every girl's dream come true. In the beginning its like you are on cloud nine, then the reality of wedding planning knocks you down off that cloud, quickly. My husband and I had always talked about getting married on the beach with just our kids and closest of family and friends. I started doing my research online at all these wedding companies and came across "Forever I Do Weddings." I liked the fact that I could go through them for everything to eliminate alot of stress off myself. Stacy always answered my questions right away, helped me with everything, even gave me ideas I hadn't even thought of. I was a little nervous as to how everything would be on my wedding day and I can sincerely say everything was more amazing than I could've ever imagined. I enjoyed every moment of my wedding and I can look back and say I didnt miss anything! I cant thank them enough for all that did to make sure my wedding was everything and more than I wanted. I can now enjoy my happily ever after!
I had to write a review for these guys! For me living in Houston, TX I was nervous with having a destination wedding. With all the stress of being a bride, I have to say Stacy and Annette put the worry to rest! They handled everything so perfectly! We did not have to do anything and they made everything they way I wanted my day to be. They responded back to my emails so quickly, and they have made my wedding day better than I have ever imagined. From referring The Breakers for an inexpensive and absolutely beautiful place to have my wedding and other places to visit. Annette was my coordinator and she made my day stress free and perfect. She also did an amazing job with my makeup as well. Stacy always answered any of my questions and took the most gorgeous pictures of us. The flowers from there were stunning as well. I have to say everyone (family, guests, and us) were completely impressed! If you are looking for wedding coordinators, these are your guys! Thank you Forever I Do for making my dream wedding become a reality!

Forever I do wedding made my day perfect!! I had a sunrise ceremony and it was absolutely perfect!! Everything I wanted and told Stacey I wanted was there. Response time was in a very timely matter. Stacey and her crew was on top of everything. The wedding went off without a hitch!! So I highly recommend anyone getting married in the Fort Walton/Destin area to use Forever I do weddings!!
Our wedding day was everything we had envisioned it would be. Trying to plan a wedding out of state was a daunting task but we soon realized we had nothing to worry about. Our wedding was very small and simple but I still wanted it to be elegant and special......it was so much more! Stacey and Annette were both amazing and always responded to my calls or e-mails quickly. They helped me choose the perfect location and time for the wedding I had in mind. We got married at sunset and it could not have been more perfect. Annette was our coordinator and also did all the girls make up, thank you for helping our day run smoothly, she really helped me enjoy every minute of my day from getting ready to the ceremony. Stacy was always available to answer all my questions and she did our photos, they were awesome! Thank you Stacy! I would highly recommend FIDW!!!!!!
What can I say about Forever I Do, they were fantastic in every thing they did for me!! Stacy is wonderful and has an answer for everything!! They paid very important detail to what I was looking for and hit it spot on on the wedding day!! Even with crazy winds and rain looming over us they did everything they could to get the wedding in!! I would highly recommend this wedding planning company to anyone who is getting married on the beach in FL. My Husband and I will be renewing our vows with them in the years to come.
forever i do weddings made our wedding day one of the best days of our lives! from the very first contact to the day of our wedding this company was so kind, so willing to work with me making decisions from another state, always uplifting and willing to do whatever it took to ensure our day was fabulous! tim, now my husband, and i coudnt have asked for anything more from a company. we had a simple ceremony, only a few family members present, but it meant the world to us that we were able to celebrate our commitment with those that were there. our coordinator and photographer were wonderful during the entire process....i would and will recommend them to anyone who is getting married on the beach! also,
El Matador Condominiums are a great location to use!

married August 4, 2012
it was great to work with this company - planning an out of town wedding can be stressful but they thought of everything and had it all under control. thanks!
The wedding was a small ceremony, we chose a non religious one with our own vows. Through-out the entire reading by the woman doing the service she kept repeating the word "faith" now that didn't bother me so much because I can imagine that as a broader term. I didn't want to stop the cermoney and ruin my moment just for that. At the very end though she had both me and my husband swear to god. Again to not ruin the flow and make it akward we went along. It was upsetting though. I do not believe in god so swearing to something to me that does not exist deminshed the meaning of my ceremony. If you use this service assume they don't know what you've told them countless times before and reconfirm before you end up with awkard moments during your happiest day.
Unbelievable wedding ceremony and reception made perfect by Forever I Do Weddings! Stacy Green and Annette Peterson made this a truly memorable event- all the more remarkable because they "handled" everything through emails with my daughter. The ceremony was supposed to be outside, but a deluge of rain forced us inside to the reception site. Annette's calm demeanor kept everything under control and on track, I never worried about a thing. The flowers were absolutely beautiful and just what my daughter wanted, as were the delicious cakes! Everyone commented on how beautiful the wedding was and how well it and the reception were conducted and much of this was due to Annette's personal attention and conscientious efforts. I highly recommend Forever I Do Weddings for any one wanting any type of wedding- beach or not- here in this area.
Forever I Do did an amazing job with our wedding on March 1st, 2012. We wanted a simple beach ceremony & they gave us exactly what we wanted. I couldn't be happier! Stacy & Annette are a dream team!
I initially thought I would DIY my wedding but quickly became overwhelmed and selected Forever I Do to assist me. It was the best decision I made! Cheri officiated the wedding and it was beautiful. Stacey kept me from stressing out, including when my music fell through three weeks before my wedding. My emails and phone calls were answered/returned promptly by Stacey.
I will absolutely recommend them in the future!
Forever I Do weddings did such a great job coordinating our beach wedding! They all were very friendly and gave great instructions, there was never a "what do we do" moment during the whole process. Many Thanks!
Dawn & Jeff H.
Stacey made everything about my wedding simple, easy, and straight forward. I was worried about planning a destination wedding, but she had tons of helpful advice and it turned out just how I wanted. Thank you!
I loved using Forever I Do Weddings, they made our special day completely stress free to plan. Planning a destination wedding is scary to begin with but with this company I never worried about anything. All of my questions were answered and the customer service was A+++ by the vendors. I would recommend them to anyone.
Wedding Date: 8/10/11Miramar Beach, FL
Everything was great other than the officiant called me "anthony" once during the ceremony. By the way, my name is April and I am female. I did have to laugh though. My flowers were just a little different than I had expected but they were still beautiful!! Everything though was great!! I won't complain. Just call me ANTHONY!!
We had high hopes for these wedding coordinators since a co-worker had recommended them. We used Forever I Do to plan our destination wedding in Florida (we live in IN). We had inquired about the sand unity container and stated that we had wanted a flat-sided heart shaped container and provided pictures. Stacey told us it wold be no problem and they'd start working on it. (This was January 18th) The week of the wedding we checked in and she was absolutely clueless about the container. I referred to the email and she said they would try to find one but we could also provide our own. We had already paid $40 for the service and didn't feel it was our job to find our own but I began searching online anyway. I sent her links of places in Florida to locate the container and had to contact her numerous times because she never contacted us first. I finally told her that the Michaels in her town had some and she said she'd pick one up. When I emailed her on our drive down she sent a picture of the jar she had picked up which was the wrong one despite the numerous pictures and descriptions we had given her. The day of the rehearsal we had to pick up our marriage license and then we spent 3 hours driving around looking for the container she told us 6 months earlier they'd pick up. We finally found one at the Michaels we had sent her to. We then required that they do the service but we would get a refund. This they did do. However, they had also stated in an email they would return our 20% business fee they tack on to the overall cost. They did NOT do this. The day of the wedding it poured and she said she would contact us if we needed to move the location off the beach. About 30 minutes before the ceremony was to start it was still down-pouring (6inches of water on the parking lot, it had rained all day, it rained the whole weekend). We finally had to contact her because with the rain blowing so hard, even the pavilion on the beach was drenched. She played the wrong music during the ceremony, which we had paid $45 for 4 songs. The gazebo fell on my dad after the ceremony, and they had said they would fill our sand container the rest of the way so it wouldn't shift but they failed to do this as well. There were more "miscommunications" during our planning process but these items were the most disappointing. Had they returned the ridiculous 20% business fee, I would be a little more understanding.
We didn't use an actual "planner," but we had a "Coordinator," Annette, from Forever I Do, for our rehearsal, ceremony, and first part of our reception. Forever I Do also took care of securing our minister/officiant, ceremony music, and sand unity ceremony. They did a great job, and were very helpful every time I called to ask questions! Annette did a great job of keeping everyone organized so the ceremony and reception ran smoothly.
I was so happy that we decided to use Forever I DO weddings for our beach ceremony. Cheri and Stacy were so wonderful to us. They took the time to listen to exactly what we wanted and found a way to make it happen. I felt like their pricing structure was very easy to understand and there were no surprises when the final bill came. They gave us options without being pushy, and I never once felt like we were trying to be "sold." Also, they had excellent communication during the entire time we were planning our wedding. They made sure that we knew EXACTLY what to expect on the wedding day. You have to remember that going into it, for most of us, we are never involved in executing a wedding for start to finish, but Forever I Do instilled alot of confidence. We knew that they do it all the time and they know what to expect in any situation. Right before the ceremony, Stacy was great and helped to calm my nerves. She made sure everything went as planned. Cheri was our officiant and she was very sweet and professional. I cannot say enough good things about this company. They were a one-stop shop for us and I was so happy with the quality of service they provided for us!
I would not recommend using this company. You do all the work and they get paid.
