Florida Sun Weddings was the best decision I made when it came to my dream wedding. They are dedicated to each and every wedding they do. You truly feel like you are their only cli...
ent when they are doing 10 other weddings at the same time. Tina was amazing. She was so responsive and helpful. She even made sure that I had everything I needed that I didn't even think of. I went with 2 vendors that she referred us to for the hair and makeup as well as a videographer. I could not have been happier with both vendors. Everyone at my wedding was impressed with the entire wedding setup and how beautiful it looked. I was impressed with how fast they took it down and headed to the next wedding on the other side of the pier. We got married on Sharky's Beach on the right side of the pier and even though the beach was packed with people, the entire ceremony and first dance was beautiful and impressively thought out. They are not a fly by night company. They know their industry very well and everything was perfection!
I don't even know where to begin! Everyone at Florida Sun Weddings went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect, and perfect it was. The work did not begin on our actual w...
edding day though, it began the moment I made an inquiry. They are responsive, friendly and I walked away from this experience feeling like family. During this process some unexpected changes came about and they were each handled with absolute care, consideration, professionalism and kindness. They made special accommodations for my ailing father so that he could attend which meant the world to us. They even provided us with a flower girl basket to use after forgetting ours in the throws of typical wedding day preparations. Having 7 siblings, I have been a part of many weddings and I can say wholeheartedly that this was the least stressful or chaotic wedding I have ever seen. They literally took care of everything so that we could focus on just being the bride and groom and the joy of our union. Tina was not just our coordinator but provided encouragement and support through the entire process. When weather became a potential issue, they were on it offering a multitude of solutions. Thankfully it held off and a beautiful beach wedding took place. Our photos were returned within one week of the wedding! Cristina did an incredible job at capturing our special day and we will cherish those captured memories for generations. We can't thank everyone at Florida Sun Weddings for their immense contribution to the start of what I know will be a beautiful life together.
Florida Sun Weddings (FSW) is a family owned wedding planning team. Mark, Tina, and Cristina were all a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. They are knowledgeable which all...
owed my wife and I to have a stress free wedding day. They were flexible which allowed us to have a unique experience. They were professional, responsive, accomidating...I can't say enough about them.
After my wife and I had to postpone our local wedding twice we decided to elope in Venice, Florida. We worked with FSW to have a beautiful sun set wedding that went beautifully. FSW met all deadlines are were always professional.
Tina recommended the place where we made our dinner reservations for dinner after our ceremony. They are well known in the community. Tell any vendor that you are working Tina and you are instantly treated like family! Tina kept in contact with me from the time we got off the plane. She helped to make sure we didn't forget rings and explained the marriage license process. She made sure she stayed up to date on COVID restrictions and rules.
Mark helped make my wife and I feel comfortable. He was willing to throw flower petals when asked on the spot to make a great photo.
Cristina is a talented photographer and really understands the sun and lighting. She worked with us from our first look until the sun went down. Her shots are dramatic and really capture the moment.
You cannot go wrong with FSW. We and glad we did!
It Doesn't Get Better Than FSW!

te. They go over the top to ensure that you are informed and everything is just how you would like it. From the planning stages of picking a beach and package, to recommending vendors and places for receptions, to fulfilling every small request... they will far exceed your expectations. I could not be more pleased with the service they provided and the memories we were able to make because of Florida Sun Weddings. They are amazing and you won't regret a thing if you book with them!!!
When my fiance’ and I finally decided on Siesta Key as our wedding destination, I was convinced we could plan the whole thing alone from Ohio. With two months to go until wedding d...
ay, I was feeling overwhelmed. The details of the wedding we envisioned just weren’t coming together. My fiance’ contacted the Chamber of Commerce and they recommended a few wedding planners. I was very skeptical, but after talking to a couple of planners, I KNEW I had to hire Tina and her team. She put my mind and heart at ease. She assured me that our unique wedding ideas would be executed just like we had envisioned over the past 6 months, and that she would personally make sure of it. She made herself available via text, phone, or email. Text worked best for me because I could shoot one over to her in the middle of my work day, and she responded nearly instantly. The day before our wedding, we delivered a bunch of ceremony “props” and she didn’t even flinch. She assured me it would get done and it was going to look beautiful. We pulled up on our big day, and everything was PERFECT! After coming home and watching the video, we realized that Mark (Tina’s brother), tried so hard to make sure this one last detail was in place, but the wind just wasn’t cooperating. But seeing that video and the multiple times he tried to set the detail in place, solidified how detail oriented the team is, as well as customer satisfaction is their priority. We loved them, and we HIGHLY recommend them to help you plan your wedding. I could NOT have executed the final details without Tina.
I chose Florida Sun Weddings for my ceremony on Siesta Key Beach – and I’m so glad I did! Tina, Sigrid and team did a WONDERFUL job! I got engaged in December 2015 and my now husba...
nd and I knew we wanted to have our wedding in the summer. Once we decided on Florida (I have family in Sarasota) I did a lot of research on places for ceremonies, different companies for wedding packages and when I landed on Sun Weddings, I had a feeling their team was my best choice – and I was right! Tina was very responsive and genuinely cared about my planning process and decisions from day one. Before I had even signed anything or gave them a deposit Tina was there to answer all of my questions. I live in Los Angeles and my sister (Matron of Honor) and my mother live in Sarasota. They met with Tina and went through the décor choices, set-up, timing and everything. (We chose“White Elegance”) Every week leading up to the wedding day Tina and Sigrid made sure everything was taken care of and reminding us of all the details – getting our marriage license, our guests, transportation, etc. Our officiant, Don Nations, that Sun Weddings chose did a lovely job and even Skyped with my husband and I weeks before the big day to meet us face-to-face and make sure he had everything down we had requested. On our wedding day, July 29, 2016, it was storming in Sarasota. Of course, I was nervous because our ceremony was going to be on Siesta Key Beach. My sister called Tina, and of course Sun Weddings was on top of it, watching the weather and reassured us that it was going to be clear on the beach. Once I arrived in the limo, Tina was there waiting, jumped in the limo with a big smile, and let me know how and what was about to take place. She sent my Matron of Honor down the sandy aisle. When I got out of the limo, and I saw my guests and the set-up, (and my husband to be) it took my breath away. Everything was gorgeous! It looked like a magazine photoshoot! Tina was right there by my side, with my father and me, to send us down the path. The setting, my guests, the beach, everything was perfect. It was the most memorable and romantic time of my life. It couldn’t have gone any better and I am so grateful to Sun Weddings and all their hard work, dedication, and love for what they do. Thank you Sun Weddings from the bottom of my heart.

mely detail oriented and was concerned that I might expect too much from my wedding vendors. I was pleasantly surprised when Tina and Sigrid were able to take over all the details and just let me lead them in the right direction during our initial discussions to the point where I didn't have to worry about anything on my wedding day. They kept everything on schedule and running smoothly while coordinating with many other vendors and our reception site. They are truly amazing and I loved working with them. For any bride who is unsure of hiring a planner, they are worth every penny! To be honest, as perfect as they were, I would have paid double after getting the experience I did. I very highly recommend!

llenge with planning a destination wedding is not knowing the area and who the good vendors are. They were invaluable in this regard and I'm thrilled with each of the vendors they recommended. My wedding day was everything I hoped it would be. There was no stress cause Tina had everything under control. All I had to do was show up to the beach and get married! I highly recommend them!
