Key West Harbour (now Stock Island Resort and Yacht Club) was a dream come true. My husband and I wanted a destination wedding and had our hearts set on the Florida Keys. From day ...
one, as we started looking at and touring venues, Karen Verri was responsive, accommodating, and professional. We ended up deciding on Key West Harbour because of the gorgeous location, amenities, and the privacy they offered. The value that they provided in comparison to other locations nearby was unmatched. Karen was extremely flexible about finding a package that worked for our needs and budget. She provided wonderful recommendations for everything from the decor, timeline, and other vendors. We also wanted to include our dogs in the ceremony. Karen assisted us with this and was more than happy to accommodate our 4 legged children in the wedding. We ended up staying in a suite on site and I can't stress it enough that if you choose to have your wedding here (which you should) that staying on site made the entire experience much less stressful. Their suites and onsite amenities are clean, updated, spacious, and beautiful. Karen was also present the whole day of our wedding and was there to make sure everything went off without any problems and to ensure that myself and the groom were enjoying our day. You can tell that she is both passionate and great at her job. On top of everything else, the food that they served was probably the best food I have ever had at a wedding (their Rib-Eye steak was huge and cooked perfectly, and other guests commented on how great the Mahi Mahi was). We are already planning our trip back!
This venue is beautiful and the staff is fantastic. Karen was super responsive to all my emails and took a lot of the stress out of planning a destination wedding. It even rained o...
ff/on thoughout the ceremony and reception and they quickly replaced the linens and kept the party going.
Key West Harbor was beautiful and the perfect spot for our wedding. The staff was very professional and polite. It can be difficult planning a destination wedding but Karen was so ...
helpful every step of the way, from the moment we booked up until the reception ended. She’s great! Her and her team made my day perfect. And the food!!! Every bit of the food was delicious.
I can’t say enough about Key West Harbour Marina! We held our vow renewal here and it was everything and more that I could imagine! Karen was very personable, easy to work with and...
offered her opinions expertly. Monika from Say Yes In Key West and her set up everything after friends dropped it off for the reception. Karen made sure everything went off without a hitch. The serving staff was attentive the whole evening. Even assembling dessert boxes for us! Karen and her staff made sure multiple times that everything was going as expected for me. When I started planning this I wanted it to go perfectly in my mind. Everything was even better than I could have imagined! My husband and all of our guests were blown away and said it was perfect! I really couldn’t ask for more from her and would do this yearly if I could afford it!
It can be very stressful planning a wedding from another state. I’m so happy I choose Key West Harbor for our wedding! The outcome exceeded my expectations! Karen was there every s...
tep of the way. The beach set up, the dinner, the food, everything was perfect. Our guest raved about the appetizers and dinner. Don’t look any further. Call Karen!
I can't recommend Key West Harbor Club highly enough. it is Key West's best kept secret and a complete gem of a location with it's small private beach, (no tourists are going to be...
trotting over and interrupting any ceremony or party) and its idyllic balcony overlooking the harbor and ocean. What makes this venue so perfect is that their event organizer, Karen Verri, is the most professional event organizer I have worked with and I should know as I was an event organizer. Karen is extremely responsive even on days off, she is on top of every detail and is calm and helpful. I didn't have to worry about a thing; it just got done. Key west Harbor's chef is great and did a tasting for us along with suggesting vegan choices as our bride to be was a strict vegan. The only down side to the Harbor is that you have to travel out onto Stock Island to get to it through a more industrial area of the town but don't let this put you off; it will be well worth it. We actually transported our guests to and from the rehearsal dinner on Key West Trolley's which just added to the evening. Well done Karen Verri and Key Harbor for the perfect evening and perfect location.
I'm so happy I had my wedding here! I had a fairly large destination wedding with over 50 people and everything turned out to be better than I expected. Was our absolute dream wed...
ding! Karen was one of my favorite people to work with. I did not hire a wedding planner and felt that she made me feel at ease throughout the entire process of planning, responds so quickly to any questions/concerns, and was very flexible with me when I wanted to add/remove anything. She really went above and beyond for us and even helped us with setting up some of the decorations and coordinated the rehearsal. The venue is also such a beautiful place! I searched for many places in Key West and this one had everything I was looking for (beach ceremony, brick patio for reception, pool for cocktail hour) -- you are also able to move things around if you want to do beach for entire wedding you are able so they are flexible. Most other venues I reached out to require you to book a certain amount of rooms in order to do your wedding there, and with doing a destination wedding, I did not want to get locked into booking expensive rooms if our guests did not end up staying there. Overall, great wedding!! We will be visiting again next year just for the view and some good food! Also, to say to say hi to Karen because she's one of my favorite people!
I don’t even know where to begin with this little gem. The Key West Harbour Yacht Club is a wonderful place to have a wedding!
The view is spectacular! If you like to be near p...
alm trees, sand and water this is a dream. The vessels gently drifting in the harbor make the whole scene that much more picturesque! The best part of all? You are guaranteed, NOT to bump into other wedding parties at this beach.
The facilities will not disappoint you either. They are well appointed with luxurious furniture and classy décor. The rooms are spacious yet somehow manage to be intimate and inviting at the same time. The banquet hall/restaurant also gives off this vibe. If your budget and guest list allow, rent out the entire facility. It is well worth it.
Moreover, the onsite Event Coordinator, Karen, was a joy to work with! She is very personable and is always full of suggestions to make the wedding an event to remember. The day of the wedding, everything was set up as requested and at the specified time. Not only that, Karen swiftly and adeptly smoothed over the small details that were cropping up and threatening to put a damper the proceedings of the wedding. Two thumbs up for Karen!
Although the ceremony was delayed (my wedding dress was MIA), the food was not lukewarm, nor under or over cooked. It was delicious from start to finish. And the presentation was exquisite. All of the servers and staff were extremely courteous and responsive to requests.
If you are looking for a unique dance floor post meal, forget the big square in the middle of a room. Have the floor on the balcony of the restaurant. There is plenty of room for people to dance. You can even have some highboy tables for those who just like to watch. #1 reason to have the dance floor on the balcony? The view (see above) + the breeze = fantastic!
After the wedding, every single guest commented on KWHYC. They just couldn’t believe how perfect every aspect of the wedding and reception was.
I couldn’t agree more! Thank you to everyone at KWHYC! Everything was amazing.

en) went above and beyond to ensure every last detail was perfect. I also had my rehearsal dinner there - food was great!! Facility is clean and new. Loved everything about this place!!
We choose the yacht club because of its ambiance, beautiful setting, friendly staff and excellent Chef Clive. We had our ceremony on the beach and our reception inside and outside...
upstairs. The food and drinks were excellent and all our guests were pleased.
Key West Harbour will take you breath away with the setting and the beautiful sunsets. This is a great place to have your venue. The food was excellent "my friends still talk about...
how good the crab cakes and filets were". Karen Rezendes was great to work with, she was quick to respond to emails and is very personable. It is not easy planning a wedding many states away, but she made the process a lot easier. This day was so much fun and I would do it all over again! If you pick this place you will not be disappointed!!
My wedding was October 13, 2012. Key West Harbour was my choice as soon as I toured the property. Everything was beautiful and I decided to have the wedding and the reception the...
re. Karen, the events coordinator, was so helpful and really took care of everything. I didn't have to worry about the other vendors (tent, tables, chairs etc.) because she was in contact with them for me. Most properties will give you the names of preferred vendors and then you have to work with them which can cause confusion and add stress. She cuts out the "middle man" and takes care of that. To me, that was amazing. She answered every email I sent very quickly and efficiently which again, kept my stress and anxiety level to a minimum. The day of the wedding, she was there from early in the morning until the reception was over. She really had every little detail under her control the whole day. I say all of this for her because I have heard and have seen coordinators work hard until the day of the wedding and then they seem to disappear on the most important day assuming their work is done and then they aren't around to answer any important last minute questions. As far as the property goes, it was so beautiful. My photos turned out amazing and all of my guests were complimenting us on the venue. The staff/crew were so polite and made sure everything was perfect. I don't believe that the day (or the planning experience) could have been any better! We did stay in one of the poolside condos the night of the wedding and it was as beautiful and comfortable as the rest of the property. My wedding day was truly amazing and definitely unforgettable.
Thanks to the efficiency, organization, and attention to detail, my wedding day at Key West Harbour Yacht Club was the epitome of a Florida Keys wedding. All the pre planning done...
by Karen Rezendes of Key West Harbour, and Nika Stroble of Soiree Events, made my special day a breeze. We couldn’t have found a better location! My entire family was able to stay at the Yacht Club, which made it super convenient since both the ceremony and reception were both on sight. The three poolside condos were top notch not to mention luxurious! Also, some of the members rented a few yachts that were docked right there in the harbor. We got married on the private beach at sunset, and the reception followed near the poolside. The food was outstanding, and the staff kept the champagne flowing. Key West Harbour is 5 stars all around!
