About Our Venues
Lovers Key, Unlike any other Venue, we are located in one of the most beautiful state parks in flodirda on Two and a half miles of beautiful white sandy beach. The Parks unspoiled, natural beauty has drawn families for many years. Instead of sharing your beach wedding with the general public, we can actually offer you a truly intimate setting with only you and your wedding guests! The venue becomes Private After Sunset! Another reason we are unlike other venues is that we do not have a ballroom with tables and chairs continuously set! With the Clients perfect day in mind, our Team custom designs each event to make sure every detail is addressed so yours will be an occasion to remember. All equipment is set up the morning of and broke down upon completion of the event. We offer many different Event Packages, each one custom designed to your taste. All Event Packages include basic set up as described in Package details, however you may add additional items as needed to make your day extra special. Rental items /options are listed on the Equipment pages as an additional cost above Package Rate.
