Bakers Ranch is a team of informed wedding professionals who are experts in the unique art of weddings. Our wedding day felt like pure magic, and it is truly thanks to the incredible team at this wedding venue. Our guests were in awe of the space, and we received so many compliments regarding the décor, drinks, food, photographer and overall experience. My husband and I put a lot of time and research into finding the right wedding venue for us, and we walked away from our wedding day with a feeling of pride for our selection, and gratitude for the support we received. We looked at venues across three states. It was a little overwhelming and emotional, knowing that the venue would dictate so much of our time as an engaged couple and ultimately, our one wedding day. Bakers Ranch immediately stood out to us, it was an all-inclusive wedding venue that would eliminate some stress of planning. It had a gorgeous green backdrop of ancient oaks and rich foliage. It had Jeremy, a wedding planner that was calm, reassuring, honest and unlike any wedding professional we had met in our search. We booked the first available Saturday the following year almost immediately. I was also an extremely detail-oriented bride, straight down to the plates, the handmade table cards, and a personal note for each attendee. But it was all perfect. The decor, the flowers, the cocktails, the food, the week before, the day before, the day of, were all a dream. Everything that I communicated was heard. The vision that I had planned for was achieved. It was even better than what we could have imagined. We are extremely grateful to Baker’s Ranch for their incredible work.

I'll never forget how delighted my daughter was when she had a first look at the floral arrangements and tables for her wedding reception that Michelle Borrero with Precious Moments Events and her team had designed. Every detail was perfect! The roses lining the aisle on the lawn when the bride walked in were gorgeous as well. The prettiest roses I ever saw! I had been worried about the availability of flowers for a January wedding yet Michelle found large, white roses and blue hydrangea. I'm so glad we had Michelle arranging the wedding for us! She gave me some advice that saved us some money. She was always there for us when we had a question. On the wedding day, she kept everything so organized that I wasn't nervous at all. Everything went smoothly! We received many, many compliments from wedding guests!

We found Beth Joy Photography before we actually even picked a venue and wedding date because I knew I wanted her and her husband to take our wedding/engagement photos! So much so that we made sure our wedding venue/date coordinated with their calendar before booking it. I cannot express to you how incredibly lucky we feel to have had our pictures taken by them. Of course the way they softly edit photos while bringing the color and brightness to life won us over initially, but the communication, timely turn around, the way they made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, their helpfulness, dependency, organization, and genuine kindness, are just some of the many other reasons we would recommend them to everyone!

  • Florist

Our store has been a pivotal part of the Sarasota floral community for two decades. Started by James Carlton and Arthur Faria in 2000, Tiger Lily was the fever dream and passion project of two artists. Today, our team aims to keep that dream alive by creating intricate, artistic designs for not only weddings, but everyday florals. We aim to make floral designs that reflect our history, and yours!

Tiger Lily was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, Petra and her team were fast, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive to all of our questions and requests. The quality of their work was nothing short of perfection - the floral arrangements they created were absolutely beautiful and breathtaking, exceeding our expectations in every way. Petra even stayed through our ceremony to quickly repurpose the altar flowers onto the reception tables, making the transition look effortless and flawless. We would definitely recommend working with Tropical Interiors Florist to any couple planning their wedding. They truly went above and beyond to make our special day even more perfect.

AnaFloral was absolutely incredible. We wanted a very colorful wedding with specific flowers in mind, and they patiently tweaked every quote and visual with us until it was absolute perfection. As two brides with similar but different tastes, they were so thoughtful in making sure each bouquet truly reflected each of us individually. That level of care meant everything. The trust we placed in AnaFloral was met and exceeded — they executed our vision exactly as we imagined. When we finally saw the florals, we were completely blown away by how breathtaking they were. All we could say was wow. If you are looking for florals that are intentional, vibrant, and beautifully executed, AnaFloral is the team to trust.

Alisa was one of the vendors I was most excited to work with on our wedding day, for so many reasons! She and Wayne made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable during the engagement session and we had SO much fun. The photos turned out INCREDIBLE and we got so many comments from friends that the photos were such high quality. On our wedding day, Alisa again brought the energy and expertise! She turned all our little details into gorgeous photos, made time for little moments throughout the day, and absolutely went above and beyond to help me and my family. She and Wayne are a dream to work with and I cannot recommend her enough!! We are so thankful to have had such a qualified, fun, and kind team. Thank you!!!

I haven’t hosted anything here myself, but I’ve seen what The Blessings Place offers and know the heart behind it. It’s a peaceful, faith-filled venue that feels like a hidden gem for those planning weddings, retreats, quinceañeras, or other special family gatherings. What really stands out is how intentional the space is. You can tell it was created not just for events, but for moments that matter—where love is celebrated, faith is honored, and families come together. I know Jim and Rosa personally, and they are people who genuinely care about others. That alone gives me full confidence in recommending this place to anyone looking for a meaningful and God-centered setting for their event. If you’re planning something special and want a space where your story will be welcomed with love and prayer, this might be the place for you.
