Saddlebrook Resort holds a special place in my heart, long before it became the backdrop for my wedding day. It's been my go-to destination for weekend getaways, and when it came to choosing the perfect venue for our wedding, I had three non-negotiable criteria: a stellar golf course, exceptional food and drinks, and ample accommodation for our guests to turn our celebration into a weekend-long affair.
From the moment I connected with Alexis Dempsey Doyle at Saddlebrook, I knew this was where our dreams would come to life. Alexis and the entire staff were incredibly accommodating, responsive, and flexible throughout the entire planning process, ensuring that every detail was tailored to perfection for our special day. The day before our wedding, we kicked off the festivities with a FORE-ever golf tournament on the renowned Saddlebrook Course, designed by none other than the legendary Arnold Palmer himself. Kyle Bruce, along with Joe McWorter and Logan Horrigan, orchestrated the event seamlessly, setting the tone for the unforgettable experience that followed. On our wedding day, Saddlebrook surpassed all expectations. The venue radiated charm and elegance, the food was nothing short of exceptional, and the drinks flowed effortlessly, keeping our guests entertained and satisfied well into the night. Every moment felt magical, thanks to the dedication and expertise of the Saddlebrook team. Beyond our wedding day, Saddlebrook has become a cherished destination for us, promising countless anniversaries filled with fond memories and nostalgic moments. I couldn't recommend this resort highly enough for not only weddings but any special event you want to make truly unforgettable. To anyone considering Saddlebrook Resort for their wedding or celebration, trust me when I say, you won't find a more perfect setting to bring your dreams to life.

We had our wedding reception at Saddlebrook and it was amazing! From planning it all to the very end everyone worked with our preferences and wishes. Being that our wedding was during Covid, they were extremely understanding and cooperative. We are so satisfied with their hospitality. Thank you so much!

All of my friends and family came to stay at Saddlebrook as a destination golf resort wedding venue - it was so convenient because Saddlebrook offers airport transportation and I did have a good majority traveling from other states. Once the guests started arriving on Friday we hosted a welcome party poolside with BBQ and games to help everyone get to know one another! My nieces loved swimming in the pool and my uncles went golfing. Our Rehearsal Dinner was at 7PM in the Lagoon Pavilion and my mother in law was able to setup all the centerpieces early on the tables and hire a two piece band to create a fun, casual atmosphere. My wedding ceremony was in the St. Mark the Evangelist Catholic Church at 1PM and the transportation team at Saddlebrook arranged buses to and from the church. After the wedding ceremony, my groom and I had plenty of time for pictures before cocktail hour at 4PM on Tropics Terrace. I was able to take pictures with my husband, wedding party and even more friends at the wooden bridge with gorgeous views of the cypress trees and the golf course. The pictures are stunning and the ambiance was exactly what I had hoped for my special day! The pictures mean the world to me and the flexibility that Saddlebrook gave me for picture venues and backgrounds made for a beautiful backdrop! We kicked off our wedding reception with a live band and even a dancing Glowbot and cold sparks!! It was the best dancing and party I have ever experienced! We even had a bounce house for my nieces! Everyone had a blast! It was so special!! After dancing the night away, we woke up for a big Sunday brunch in Tropics Restaurant with eggs cooked to order, pancakes, bacon and all of the recovery foods for a final farewell wish from all of our friends and family before heading out to the airport for a 5PM flight to our Honeymoon! At Saddlebrook, my wedding was in it''s own bubble of love with everything I needed all in one place. It was a one stop shop to make all of my dreams come true! All of my friends and family became friends! There was no stress and everything was perfect! The Saddlebrook team went above and beyond to help me plan every little detail! The pictures and videos from my wedding weekend are one of my greatest treasures! I can't thank Saddlebrook enough for a picture perfect wedding weekend! <3

We just had our rehearsal dinner and room block at Saddle Brook and were SO happy with how everything turned out. The food was phenomenal and guests raved about the rehearsal dinner. Our guests loved staying at Saddle Brook and the hotel was wonderful with the room block. Thank you Saddle Brook!

My fiance and I searched at about 10 venues for our weddnig location (I am very picky). We needed a venue that was also a hotel due to most of our guests coming from out of town. I am going to be honest I at first was hesitant about looking at Saddlebrook because it is quite far from the city and well from anything really. It was the very last place we looked at and I am extremely glad we did (only i wished it would have been the first place)! As soon as we walked into the resort we knew that this was it! Very beautiful, clean, good service, and fantastic picture opportunities! There are many locations to choose to have the ceremony as well as the reception location based on the number of guests. Almost our entire guest list, even the people that live nearby stayed at the hotel and were all very happy! It ended up being one memorable event that my husband and our guests will remember for ever!

The Pavillion was set on a lagoon and you had to cross a little bridge to get to it.
