Paddlefish

aricature artist and it was so amazing! Paddlefish was so accommodating and our guests could not stop raving about the food! The ambiance of the lights, and Disney fun below just adds that extra touch! When we were saying our vows people in the water stopped to watch and then all the Disney springs guests were clapping and cheering for us along with our family! Truly magical! You wont be disappointed!

nice size and having the deck was a benefit to spread out later after dinner. We had lots of children invited so there was plenty of room for them to dance with the DJ. I received a lot of compliments about the bartenders, food, and servers. It was a perfect venue for the dinner and Kate and the entire staff was very easy to work with.

an “after party,” where we had dessert and a cheese platter for the rehearsal guests and everyone else who wanted to come to the after party, with an open bar. We had well over 100 people, with toasts on the deck. Everyone raved about the event. It exceeded our very high expectations. Kate, the event coordinator, was so nice to deal with and accommodating to our expanding plans, and I received a lot of compliments about the bartenders and event manager. I could not rate Paddlefish more highly.

htaking with waterfront views, a private deck, a bathroom right outside the reception room, fantastic food that my guests said was the best they ever had at a wedding, and a lot of menu choices. We had stunning sunset views and the staff were very attentive to all of our guests and especially to us. As someone who has been a bridesmaid and MOH many times I know it's really hard for the couple to have time to eat at their wedding but their staff made sure we did. They brought us appetizers and kept refilling our glass with whatever we were drinking from the bar without us needing to ask or even get up from the table. They took our lead on when to serve food between speeches but they also checked in to remind us that we should make sure we had enough time to get through all 3 courses of our meal. They boxed up leftovers for us. They were LGBT friendly and their staff worse masks and were willing to open the door on the deck for us to feel more comfortable having a little more airflow to prevent COVID. We were also able to sit all of our guests in a U shape which felt very intimate and facilitated conversation. I really can't recommend this place enough it is gorgeous and was the perfect venue.

n we find it. That level of service and expertise only skyrocketed when we chose Paddlefish as our wedding venue. Kate really knows her stuff and made sure we were aware of even the smallest of details! We were thrilled all the help she provided us, and when our big day finally arrived, the Paddlefish staff took care of everything! My guests were raving about how helpful and considerate the staff was and I had several people tell us that the venue was one of the most unique they've ever seen. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Kate, and the of the Paddlefish team! I want to say a particular thank you to the Banquet Manager. Your knowledge of your food really impressed our guests!

ue is gorgeous and provide the perfect backdrop for pictures. I couldn’t imagine getting married anywhere else and we’ll be making Paddlefish our “special occasion” place for a long time to come!

d in such a way that our reduced guest count (35 guests) still felt like the perfect number of guests! Kate was very responsive and a joy to work with. She answered all of our questions and even whipped up a floor plan for us to start "decorating" in our minds ahead of time. There was the perfect amount of space for dancing, and the reception felt timely and well-organized. We never had to wait long for the next meal course in the reception, and the staff at the Paddlefish was attentive and courteous. They even boxed up food for my husband and I to take with us since we were often too busy mingling during the reception to each much of it! We highly recommend choosing Paddlefish for both the ceremony and the reception!

experience. The ceremony was beautiful, the photos came out great, and it was all very affordable.

her with questions or concerns. She was very up front with pricing, which is extremely hard to find these days when it comes to weddings. Fast forward to the day of; the staff at Paddlefish was absolutely wonderful to work with! They were on top of every single detail they were supposed to be, and went above and beyond. Several of my guests made comments to me about how great the staff and the food was that day. Just the food alone was worth having my wedding there; it was honestly phenomenal! They are known for their seafood but we had a non-seafood dish and people raved about that as well! 10/10 for this restaurant/venue!

in and team offered phenomenal service, making sure our guests were all taken care of before we arrived. They even put appetizers aside for us and served us the main entrée first as the bride and groom, which we thought was very considerate. We chose the upstairs floor as our reception location, so our guests were able to eat inside and dance outside on the deck. Because it is such an intimate location and our floorplan was very straightforward, we had plenty of time to mingle and chat with all our guests. We appreciated the flexibility to bring in our own decorations so we didn’t have to hire another vendor to set it up. We loved working with Director of Sales Kate to plan our special day, and she was on top of every question or change we sent her way! Paddlefish was the most amazing venue to celebrate our love story, and our guests had a wonderful time. It’s the perfect way to add a little Disney to your wedding, but still make it completely your own!

te, and she made the whole process very easy. Our guests still talk about the wonderful and delicious food options and how incredibly beautiful this venue is.

! In addition to our beautiful wedding itself, Kate from Paddlefish helped me coordinate pre-ceremony champagne, passed BuzzPops for toasts, late night flatbreads delivered to the bar, and so, SO much more. She even coordinated our rehearsal dinner at Terralina! The value we received was UNRIVALED. It is at this point that I can tell you that Paddlefish pulled all of this off THE NIGHT BEFORE DISNEY SHUT DOWN FOR COVID. These freaking MIRACLE WORKERS pulled off the impossible, and I am so beyond thankful! Huge thanks to Kate and the entire PAddlefish team for giving me the wedding of a lifetime!

mpliments about it! The entire staff working the event were so nice and accommodating. And Kate was amazing in helping me organize and plan everything. I definitely recommend Paddlefish for any event!

get married there. Kate was very understanding of our needs, and flexible with our menu. Thank you so much to the incredible staff at Paddlefish! We had a wonderful and intimate ceremony followed by a beautiful reception.

in the morning with a lunch reception. Everything was absolutely incredible. The only complaint I heard was that the chicken was a bit dry, and didn't have enough sauce. However, the salmon and the shrimp pasta along with the appetizers were to die for. Before we went into the reception, the various levels of the restaurant and the outside spaces made for the best portrait locations. Honestly, I left my reception wishing I could do it all over again. Still wish I could!!

t next door, Terralina Crafted Italian. We really wanted an indoor/outdoor venue that had rustic touches like wood and market lights, but modern amenities like killer food cooked on site, multiple restrooms, and I'm the middle of some "action." Paddlefish had it all! Our wedding guests had a blast!! The food delicious and drinks were pouring all night. Highly recommend them for a unique venue for any kind of party!!!

t. I can't recommend Paddlefish enough! Pros: Affordable, Intimate. a great view and pace to work with, A+ customer service Cons: There were too many great options on the menu to choose from!

le to keep up with our fast-paced planning and give us an experience that was beyond our expectations. The Event Managers, Kate and Cassie, were very responsive and the servers/bartenders the day of were fast and efficient. The venue was beautiful and comfortably fit our 60 guests, whom could not stop raving about the food. The two pieces of advice I would give if you decide to have your ceremony and reception there are consider a night time ceremony because our pictures at sunset over looking Disney Springs are gorgeous, and pay for the extra hour if you have a lot of guests.
