  1. Hi! We are getting married in Key West in October and are staying at Southernmost Hotel. They have been great so far, but I think I did have better luck in the beginning calling them rather than emailing. I'm not sure if I can help much with having that many people, but will help with whatever I can because I know this has been a great resource for me. We are only having 30 to 40 people and are getting married at The Oldest House. We looked into just doing the beach thing, but I was too nervous to just have to take a spot somewhere without really having any reservations. Looking forward to hearing more!
  2. Thank you so much for your response! We have decided to get married at the Oldest House, it is the oldest house in Key West and has a beautiful/intimate garden area for small ceremonies and is very affordable. I was just so nervous about not having a "certain" area on the beach and just having to show up. What part is Aaron doing for you? We don't have a planner because we already have an officiant and photographer so weren't sure if we needed one, but would love to hear your opinion! I talked to Duffy's after I received your message and they said that they don't do private parties. How many people will you be having? They told me they can't accommodate large groups so I'm still not sure what we're going to do about dinner, we have ~30 ppl. We were considering having a caterer, but that is a pretty large expense as well and we are trying to keep it down if possible. All the restaurants I have talked to are already booked or are pretty high as well. I looked at Rum Barrel, but they rent the deck for $500/hr (they said they may not have to rent it if they can still seat other ppl, but didn't give me a max number and I don't want to chance it) and that is too high for our budget. I liked Conch Republic online, but it is booked other than the "end of the bar" area where they said they could put us, but I'm not sure what that consists of....what was it you didn't like about it? Just trying to get as much help as possible, it's so hard to decide on anything without having been there!
  3. Thank you so much mkeller23, that definitely does help! I looked at their website, but hadn't considered it much. I will definitely get with them with more information! Thank you for the input, anything helps!
  4. I am a newbie on this site and have spent several weeks reading forums before I officially joined today and am so thankful for all of the help I've already found here. I know there have been a few posts awhile back, but I was wondering if any of you brides have updated information on some great, fun places for a small, relaxed reception in Key West. We are getting married on the beach (think Smathers, any opinions on that would be great as well!) then thinking that a restaurant for a cocktail/hor'd ourves reception would be the best option. I have looked at the Conch Republic and Schooner's Wharf per other suggestions on here, but would love any help you could give...thanks in advance!

  6. I am new to the site and thought I was doing something wrong, but have not been able to start a thread since I joined. Always have this same issue and would really like to understand what is going on so I can get started on the site. I use a Mac with Safari...have been trying to post on the Florida Forum, thanks.
