Having our wedding at Sirata Beach Resort was the best decision we made. We knew we wanted to have a destination wedding, but had no idea where to start with the logistics. We visited 4 hotels in the area, and the minute we stepped foot on Sirata’s property, and met Kelli Love, we knew we had found the place.
Throughout the whole wedding planning process, Kelli was extremely organized and put my mind at ease when I physically lived thousands of miles away. She was patient and responsive with all my questions, and you can tell the entire staff at Sirata is a well-oiled machine. We only had one visit to Sirata during our entire planning process (for our tasting), and still not ONE thing went wrong our on wedding day. Kelli and her team also have an amazing list of preferred vendors, which made the few things I did have to do on my own extremely easy. We received so many compliments on how good our cocktail hour and reception food was, and the staff made sure my husband and I were well fed, which is so important. (They always say you’ll forget to eat on your wedding day, and it’s absolutely true).
A few important shout outs if you get the chance to work with any of these folks at Sirata: Kelli and Jessica are the two main coordinators. They both went above and beyond to help with our décor, keep our bridal party in line, and thought of every single logistic so I didn’t have to. Melissa was a tremendous help during our rehearsal, ceremony, and reception, and made sure that all of our events were timely and perfect. Greyson at the front desk made sure our guests were taken care of, and went above and beyond to make sure all the rooms in our block were comfortable for them. Shanna and Jakeya helped tremendously with our room block, and even helped deliver welcome bags for our guests at check-in. Derek, our reception bartender, made our drinks strong and delicious, and all our guests loved him! All the staff at the two bars on the property, particularly Shanna and Kevin, made sure we were well-fed all weekend and made sure our guests always had a drink in their hand. 😊 Everyone you meet at Sirata is so friendly, and made us and our guests feel so welcome.
The entire crew at the Sirata brought our dream wedding to life, far beyond anything we could have imagined. The property is absolutely perfect for an extended weekend for out-of-town guests. On top of our ceremony and reception, we had a welcome party the night before at Rum Runners, and a farewell brunch the next day at Harry’s. Our guests appreciated how easy all the logistics were, which is exactly what we wanted for our destination wedding. The property is also dog friendly, so we were able to have our beloved pug stand up in our wedding. Sirata not only helped with the permits to have him on the beach, but they ENCOURAGED our obsession with our dog 😊
It's been a month since our wedding and I’m still emotional thinking about how grateful I am to Kelli and the entire Sirata staff. If you want a perfect beach wedding, with great food, good drinks, and friendly staff, this is your place.
