This is a wedding venue like no other! It is so unique, magical, and absolutely one-of-a-kind! Both the indoor barn and the outdoor parts of the venue are gorgeous. My husband and I chose to have our wedding completely outside. We were able to have three different areas outdoors for the reception, cocktail hour, and ceremony. The guests loved being able to go from place to place and it just flowed together so perfectly. The lighting, chandeliers and open skies made our night time wedding absolutely stunning for guests and photos! Erik has put so much work into the beautiful landscape, lighting, and outdoor layout that the only decor I needed were my centerpieces for my tables And a few things to make my wedding my own like signs, etc. Everything else was already there and absolutely beautiful. Erik went above and beyond for me by hanging disco balls, and he even surprised me and had his neighbors chickens For the day for my wedding because I love my chickens and am known for being a crazy chicken lady. That alone gives this place 1 million stars! Erik is attentive to the individual needs of the bride/groom as well as the guests. He puts so much detail, heart, and soul into everything he does. From the Airbnb, treehouse, to the actual venue itself. We loved having it all in one place as well. as the option to purchase the alcohol package and delicious food from his chef! If you want a wedding that stands out above the rest, choose Wanderlust Okto! If you want your wedding to stand out above the rest… Look no other! My wedding was more than we could’ve ever dreamed and we couldn’t have done it without Erik and his venue

Our experience at Eterna Estate was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that the team takes immense pride in maintaining the grounds and the estate to absolute perfection. Every corner was pristine, every detail carefully tended to, and it created the most breathtaking backdrop for our vow renewal. Jasmine was truly the heart of the planning process. Her knowledge of the Estate, its history, and its potential was invaluable in bringing our vision to life. Planning a vow renewal in just about 100 days could have been overwhelming, but she made it feel effortless. Her guidance, professionalism, and genuine care made the entire journey a dream. Working with her and the rest of the team was an absolute pleasure. We’ve attended and planned many weddings across Florida, and we can confidently say that the team at Eterna is second to none. Their passion for the Estate and their dedication to making every couple’s vision come alive is unmatched. A special shoutout goes to their in-house bartender, Steve. He was phenomenal. He seemed to intuitively know when to lighten the mood with a joke and when to lend a hand always at just the right moment. His presence made the day flow seamlessly, and we cannot recommend him enough. The Estate itself is breathtaking! Aperfect setting for anyone dreaming of a more intimate, slower-paced wedding day. The architecture adds charm and timeless elegance throughout, and the interior décor is beautifully curated, offering a natural yet refined aesthetic that works effortlessly with any event style. The outdoor ceremony space was quiet, intimate, and the epitome of Florida elegance. The custom benches and ceremonial arch created a stunning visual with minimal added decor. For cocktail hour, the reflection pool area was magical. As the sun set, the string lights transformed the space into something truly enchanting. Our reception in the stables was everything we envisioned, moody, elegant, and warm. The chandeliers, draped fabric, and fairy lights created an atmosphere straight out of a dream. We loved the versatile stall spaces; we used one for a served buffet and the other as a dessert bar, but they would also make an incredible photo booth setup. The raised DJ platform added a sophisticated touch, and the layout perfectly balanced the dining and dance areas. Connected, yet comfortably distinct. One detail that deserves its own praise: the bathrooms. After visiting countless venues with cramped, multi-stall restrooms, Eterna’s private, spacious, beautifully styled facilities were a refreshing surprise. They were spotless, thoughtfully designed, and incredibly comfortable for guests in formal attire. Our entire day unfolded flawlessly! No hiccups, no stress, just pure joy surrounded by beauty and exceptional service. We cannot recommend Eterna Estate highly enough. If you’re searching for a venue with heart, elegance, and a team that goes above and beyond in every way, this is the place. It was truly a dream come true.

I had checked out many venues prior to seeing True Heart Ranch. One look and meeting was all it took…absolutely stunning location from an incredible all wood barn, beautiful pastures with horses, to a ceremony under a gorgeous twin oak tree with a falling sunset as a backdrop. Cindy and family made everything easy. They were honest, exceedingly helpful, and so much fun! There were no hidden fees and information was upfront and well outlined and affordable. I’ve been to many weddings and although this was mine I must say it was perfect and all our guests raved about it and how beautiful and fun it was. We went for an elegant look keeping the charm of the rustic feel and it was beautiful! I highly recommend True Heart Ranch! My daughter is already planning to have her wedding here when it’s time. A true gem and I’m so thankful we chose to celebrate here.

They pride themselves on professionalism and maintaining such a beautiful venue and they do it all with such grace. There is plenty of entertainment for the family staying with you whether they are 2 or 92, there is something for everyone to stay entertained. I was nothing but relaxed as the bride the entire weekend and everything went off without a hitch. Their preferred vendors are vetted and held to the same standards.

Sweetwater Branch Inn (SWB) went above and BEYOND to make my wedding weekend everything I had dreamed of—and more. If I could give SWB a million out of five stars, I absolutely would! My wedding was on March 16, 2025, and originally planned as an outdoor event. The team at SWB was incredibly flexible, allowing me to get creative with the venue and hold the ceremony and dinner in a different location than they usually do which was impressive in itself! Just days before the wedding, a storm was predicted to hit. At the last minute, we ordered a tent for the gardens (something that had never been done before), completely reworked the layout we had spent over a year planning, and somehow, everything turned out perfectly! Adrienne, the event coordinator, and Angel, the food and beverage coordinator, were nothing short of incredible. Adrienne went above and beyond, dedicating extra time and effort to ensure my vision came to life, even with the last-minute changes. Every single member of the staff was truly wonderful. My close family stayed at the Inn and didn’t want to leave! Guests traveled from Canada, New York City, and even Sydney, Australia—and every single one of them raved about their stay. From the friendly and helpful staff to the elegant decor and the delicious food (both at breakfast and the wedding!), they were beyond impressed. I cannot say enough great things about Sweetwater Branch Inn and the amazing event venue they provide. They do everything with heart, which is so rare these days—and that, above all, meant the world to me and my guests.

They set up everything and took care of so much that I was able to truly relax on my wedding day. They took care of all the decorating, set up, clean up, picking up our food, looking over that everyone was setting up correctly, made sure everything was running smoothly at rehearsal time, ceremony and reception. She made all our bouquets and boutonnières and worked in any extra tasks that helped the day be better. They also had great communication with our vendors. They are very organized, detail-oriented and just want to make sure everyone has a great time. For brides on a budget, trust me, THIS is the place you need!!!! Sometimes you think you have to sacrifice a lot when planning a budgeted wedding, but Monarch Meadows really knows how to work to make the most special day a reality. All my guests loved everything and we received so many compliments, but it wouldn’t had been the same outcome without Cindy and her staff’s efforts. May God keep blessing them for all they do and their wonderful character.

I absolutely cannot put into words how happy we are to have had our dream wedding at our dream venue. From the moment you drive in, the venue will leave you speechless—with stunning lake views from all directions and tall pine trees lining the way. Casani Estates was the perfect backdrop for our intimate fall wedding, with an outdoor ceremony overlooking the lake and a beautiful indoor reception space. I loved working with their trusted vendors, who were able to work within our budget and helped make our day even more special. The food was delicious, the music was perfect, and the photos were absolutely stunning! Working with Carmen and Elizabeth was an absolute pleasure. I’ve never felt so well taken care of. They seemed to know what I wanted or needed even before I did. Carmen answered every call, responded to every question, and made the whole planning process feel effortless. Our reception space was decorated beautifully. The venue itself is breathtaking, but when it was transformed with the decorations, it was truly overwhelming—seeing everything come to life brought tears to my eyes. Our loved ones couldn’t stop complimenting the venue, and everyone raved about how friendly and accommodating the staff was. Casani Estates will always hold a special place in my heart, and we’ll never forget the incredible memories we created at this magical venue.

I recently had the pleasure to work with Mulberry Estates. I was in the hunt for a venue to have a surprise gender reveal/baby shower for my best friend. Right when I was about to give up I came upon Mulberry through google search. I immediately fall in love without seeing it in person. I contacted the venue and was in contact with Melanie since. Due to the fact I lived in a different city all the planning was done vie phone calls and text messages. Melanie’s impeccable service from day one made the day truly memorable. On the day of the event, I must say, I felled in loved even more. The guest loved it and most importantly my best friend and husband loved it. The venue definitely exceeded our expectations! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was welcoming and vibrant. Melanie was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure every guest felt comfortable and well taken care of. The venue itself is beautifully designed, with a perfect blend of modern and cozy elements. Thank you so much again Melanie for all your time and patience with me through the planning since they one until the event date. Thank you once again for an outstanding experience. We look forward to working with you again in the future.
