Mystic Dunes Resort & Golf Club

o to make them more comfortable. The ballroom is beautiful and the golf course was such a pretty background.

g! He is so organized and pays attention to every detail! Thank you to everyone who participated in making my day so special!!

. My guests were completely blown away at how professional everything looked. Rick goes above and beyond for the bride and groom and I know I could not have picked a better place to have our wedding.

above ad beyond and you can tell he loves what he does. I was honored to have him as my day of coordinator. I highly recommend mystic dunes for the beautiful location and high class service!! Thank you for a fabulous wedding!!!

nversed via email quite a bit to discuss everything from our lines, decorations, and food choices. We had several people in our families with dietary restrictions & they were able to accommodate in incredible ways. First, our Rehearsal dinner helped to kick off the warm & relaxed weekend vibe we were hoping for and our guests started the weekend off already thrilled about the meal and venue overall. Second was our wedding day. Rick & his team decorated the room (along with our florist) so I could focus on getting ready. About a half hour before the ceremony, Rick did a room reveal with my husband and I... We were almost moved to tears. Every decoration provided and the ones I created were perfectly arranged and highlighted throughout the room. Rick & his team then helped guide us through the rest of the night from our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and sparkler exit. They even made up a few plates of food for me so I could eat in between dancing/chatting with our guests. Finally, our brunch the following day gave us the opportunity to spend more time with the family & friends and wrap up the weekend with a thank you and warm remarks. Truly, our experience could not have been more magical. Thank you all so much!

e and beyond through out the entire process. From making sure all 1,000 of my questions were answered to decorating the ballroom exactly how I dreamed. The food was not your typical mediocre wedding food. The guests all complimented us on how delicious it was. There is absolutely nothing I would have changed!

le and awesome attitude was our deciding factor for hosting our wedding at Mystic dunes. From the bottom of our hearts, we will always be grateful to Rick for being awesome and Mystic dunes is a hidden gem with such beautiful ballroom and view. Thank you RIck!!!!

an with anything! He went out of his way to get us a perfect photo outside where the sign Mystic Dunes is. The scenery outside the clubhouse, the ceremony area and the reception hall were beautiful. We highly recommend Mystic Dunes.

so quick to respond to my (many) questions, was very patient, organized, and detail oriented. He completely exceeded our expectations of the role of a day of coordinator. He made every aspect a lot of fun and stress-free. He even helped bustle my dress when we couldn't remember how and helped attach the guys' boutonnieres. The only issue we had was with the room block, but that is run by an entirely different group. My wedding day was truly the best day of my life and I owe that in large part to Rick's passion for his trade! Thank you so much to Rick and the team at Mystic Dunes! We'd pick you all over again in a heartbeat! :)

. The venue is absolutely fantastic!!!!!! Its very clean and the food was phenomenal!!!! Rick was on top of everything!!! He delivered!!!!!!! Also, this place is cost effective!!!!!!!! I highly recommend Mystic Dunes Resort to anyone looking for a great venue that actually cares about your dream wedding becoming true.

ions you may have. The day before and the day of he took last minute details off my plate and made my day that much more enjoyable. Not only was Rick great, but the venue itself is beautiful. We ended up having around 160 guests and it was a very comfortable fit. Our guests all had a great time and mentioned the food was the best wedding food they have ever had- I AGREE! The entire team at Mystic Dunes did an excellent job and it was truly the best day ever and an experience we will never forget!

commodating and see that every need was met. The food was very well prepared and exceeded my expectations in taste and presentation. Let me assure you that the level of professionalism is a force reckon with. Every call and email answered, he was my very personal assistant that went beyond the call of duty in selecting vendors to compliment your taste. I'm telling you Mystic Dunes is hands down the best place for less stress headache they bring your dreams to reality. Thanks Mr. Rick Martin for giving me the best day of my life.

wedding day unforgettable! I can not tell you how many times Rick and I met and discussed my vision (which was a long detailed list!), and he never gave me nothing but his best! Every time we met, he was professional, warm, inviting, funny and aiming to please! Rick goes above and beyond any coordinator that I have ever met! Anything that did come up unexpectedly, that was out of his control, he handled it with confidence, reassurance and I never worried the day of our special day, because I knew he had everything under control . Our wedding day was magical and everything went perfect. I can not thank Rick Martin enough for everything I put him through and for him making my wedding dreams come true!! He is a true blessing that words can not describe and always my David Tutera!

pectations, he did everything as I wanted it and more. Also, he is a life saver! Day of wedding my bridal party didn't know how to do my bussle and he saved the day! We loved working with him, and all his staff was great as well. Venue is gorgeous, we definitely recommend having your special day here.

on areas are the perfect blank canvases on which to paint your dream wedding. The vibrant greens of the golf course engulfs the clubhouse and provides a gorgeous backdrop. My husband and I have a combined 25 years of food and beverage experience and are hard to impress but the Chefs at Mystic Dunes executed flawlessly- the prime rib was spot on, the risotto was prepared perfectly and passed hors d’oeuvres left all of my guests more than impressed. However, the real showstopper here is event coordinator and magic maker Mr. Rick Martin. From day one, Rick made the entire process fun and as stress-free as possible. His artistic nature, passion and attention to detail is what sets him apart from anyone else in the business. Handing over the reigns to your wedding, especially when you're a planner, is not easy. Rick took our whole vision and brought it to life, he listened to my every long winded wish and offered honest insight on how we could make it happen. Day of, he made sure we were on time and that every guest and vendor was in the right place. Rick ensured the only thing we had to worry about on one of the biggest days of our life was having fun. We will be forever grateful to him and the rest of the staff at Mystic Dunes for helping to make our wedding day absolutely perfect.

rite part of this venue was Rick Martin, the manager of events who also dubbed as our wedding coordinator (included with the venue!). Rick went by far above and beyond to make sure that every SINGLE detail was perfect and how we wanted it. He even had chocolate covered strawberries and champagne waiting for us in our complimentary room the night of our wedding. I normally would have been a nervous mess on my wedding day, worrying that something would go wrong, but Rick knew every detail and anticipated every need before we even had to ask. He truly went above and beyond and made our day perfect. This venue is truly a hidden gem in Orlando and I'm so glad we found it.

challenging, and he was very sweet about it. He made sure every last detail was perfect. The food was amazing and the staff was attentive and nice. Everyone was on their A game.

e set up for our guests and tables and Rick pulled it off with out a hitch because of taking his time with us to understand the essence of what we wanted. Rick was very in tune with our wedding and was able to compensate when other vendors (not from Mystic Dunes) were not pulling their weight. This made our experience a happy, beautiful memory! I would choose Rick and Myatic Dunes again in a heart beat (although I will proabaly wait a while before organizing another wedding, phewwww!) thank you to Rick and the crew for a fantastic day!

. And of the above nearly all start at premium prices (I'm looking at you Hilton with your $125/plate chicken). So it is a rare gem to find an affordable venue with not only a beautiful view for ceremony & photos, but spectacular food prepared by chefs who have personally cooked for celebrities at previous points in their career. But that's just scratching the surface of what Mystic Dunes has to offer. Lets start with affordable. Included in the very reasonable venue price is seating with chiavari chairs, tablecloths of your choice of color, champagne for the toast, private space for the bridal party to get ready, & use of Mystic Dunes' table numbers, cake cutting set, dining ware, & champagne flutes. Let's also not forget included in the price is a honeymoon suite for the night of, champagne & chocolate covered strawberries, & a free round of golf for the newlyweds. Discounted rooms are also available for your Guests, & not only are they cheaper than your standard hotel room, they're full suites - kitchen, fridge, & hot tub included. We didn't even bother to list alternate hotels, that's how good a price it was. Oh, & by the way your Mystic Dunes point of contact is also included as your day of coordinator (a job that typically costs a few hundred in itself). But more on that later - I dare you to find a venue package with the same level of benefits at the same price. Let's talk food. Plated for our event was well under $100/entree, helping us save hundreds of dollars that we were able to use elsewhere in our wedding budget. You have a wide variety of appetizers to select from, several different entrees served buffet style or plated, along with a good selection of sides & salads. They are all delicious - honestly some of the dishes we had during the tasting were the best of their kind we've ever had. You don't go into a wedding expecting that. Most of the time you hope the food is at least acceptable & that's pretty good already. Needless to say we were excited for our guests. Rehearsal dinner (buffet style) at the venue was also incredibly affordable, convenient, & just as delicious. Lastly, let's talk about Rick Martin, the Catering Manager & Day of Coordinator. Rick is a sweetheart whose role is to make everything in the background run smoothly on your special day. While we ultimately planned our wedding on our own, Rick was there to provide tons of helpful advice, options, recommendations, & peace of mind that everything would be handled the day of - which he did. Rick was friendly, professional, responsive, flexible, & organized. He was genuinely interested in doing everything he could to accommodate us & our guests & make our day special - without him, our event would not have come together as perfectly as it did. As much as the venue & food stood out at Mystic Dunes, Rick is honestly what we remember the most fondly. With adequate planning & communication from the couple/wedding planner, there should be absolutely no reason that your event wouldn't go just as wonderfully under Rick's watch. So new couples, do do your due diligence & search around. But don't search too long - someone else might snatch up your date for this venue. You'll find yourself back here soon enough anyway.

the day of so you don't need to worry about it. Thank you!

ded up getting married right after hurricane Irma but again this was no problem for Rick- he kept in constant contact and updated up on each stage of the premises being checked and evaluated and he made sure we knew as soon as possible that the wedding would go ahead. On the day Rick set our decor up and everything was beautiful- I wasnt sure about the metal arbor but he covered it in fabric and used our flowers to make it pretty. We loved the location and the choice regarding where we could be married on site and we were reassured by the back up indoor option incase the weather turned bad. The cheese platter and champagne toast was an added bonus! We would highly recommend Mystic Dunes to friends and Rick made us feel like we had our own wedding planner!

ig day. Our wedding day went by so smooth, which allowed us to enjoy every second of it. Mystic Dunes is beautiful, affordable and the food is great. We received so many compliments! I would highly recommend this venue to anyone planning their wedding or similar event.

place is it. Its affordable, they are welcoming and fun, the ballroom is perfect and has a lot of space. If I could do my wedding again I would always have it at Mystic Dunes.

enough about Rick Martin, our wedding planner and therapist! He walked us through answering questions we hadn't even asked ourselves, and literally our day would not have happened without him! I highly recommend you have your wedding or really any event at Mystic Dunes!
