Islamorada, Florida Keys Weddings & Family Resort

What can we say? John and I (Todd's parents) were completely blown away by the weekend from beginning to end. The wedding was just as magical as you promised it would be, and your staff was accommodating even with our extremely large group of boisterous guests. We started the celebration upon arriving on Thursday and continued until we reluctantly left on Sunday afternoon.

I know that our families were particular and had many special requests regarding the wedding, but the two of you made it all a reality for us, and allowed us the liberties to personalize each step of the way.

Paul, I know that a career in weddings was not the first path you chose, but you have surely found a way to blend something you are very good at and also have a passion for. How wonderful for you !!!!!!......and we wish you and Magda continued success with all your future brides and grooms.

Sincerely,

John and Debbie Miller

PS You were right, many guests told us that this was the best wedding that they had ever attended!

Paul and Magda,

This was our first destination wedding and we were so fortunate Gina and 
Eric chose Coconut Cove Resort to fulfill their ideal wedding experience.

Many of our guests chose to enjoy a long weekend on Islamorada because of 
such a wonderful location. As a result, family and friends gathered 
throughout the weekend evenings to share reports on the activities of the 
day. We had stories of diving, fishing, touring, bathing and 'just plain 
relaxing' experiences.

Coconut Cove Resort became our extended home base throughout the long 
weekend leading up to Sunday evening's wedding ceremony. We couldn't have 
had better help from all of you at the resort to make all our guests feel 
welcome.

Paul, your ceremony on the beach was so personal and suited to our bride and 
groom. They wanted a relaxing, tropical setting with "island time" pace and 
so it was.

Magda, all your flower arrangements and bouquets were so beautifully created 
and provided the perfect floral accents both on the beach and around the 
reception area. We all await the photography you produced because just 
seeing the pre-production setups make the end result so excitedly 
anticipated.

By the many reports from our guests, the food choices served were a big hit. 
The chicken and fish got rave reviews and all the sides were wonderfully 
delicious. Kudos to the cake baker of the key lime wedding cake. It had to 
be the most tasty wedding cake we have ever had and were lucky enough to 
have enjoyed some leftovers!

Your DJ did a great job as well. Our suggestion would be to perhaps 
move his staging to the pool side of the Tiki hut to allow for better 
natural air flow off the beach onto the dance floor; or perhaps a ceiling 
fan installed over the dance floor area would work. Many guests got too 
warm to dance after the initial introductions, but they did enjoy the music 
anyway as background to conversation.

Thank you to Rick for all his good natured assistance throughout the 
weekend. He gave great advice for local eateries for our guests and kept 
the coffee flowing throughout the day. The Island Grill provided a great 
place for an informal gathering for many of our guests on Friday evening to 
meet and get to know each other which then carried over through the weekend.

Thank you to Pam in Housekeeping for taking such good care of our bride and 
groom and many of our guests.

Thank you to the ladies who set up for the reception; they were very 
accommodating with a few special requests and made our reception area look 
like a tropical fairyland.

Paul and Magda, you certainly do your best to make your weddings the best 
they can be and we look forward to enjoying your hospitality again soon.

Warmest Regards,

Dear Paul and Magda,
Well it is over and we are back to normal at home. What a wonderful weekend we had. Ever guest that attended came to us and said they had never been to such a fun and beautiful wedding. Nichole and John said it was everything and more than they ever thought it could be. Paul and Magda you really out did yourselves. It was truly a spectacular time. I would not change a thing if we had it to do over. We have some wonderful photos that Bruce is going to be sending to you. I hope you can use them to help promote your weddings. We would recommend any one to use you and this location. Thanks for making our daughter's dreams come true.
Sincerely,
Cindy Watford
mother of the bride

Paul & Magda;

We scooted out so fast on Sunday that I didn't get to reiterate what an absolutely PERFECT time we had. You both were completely on point and made every aspect of the wedding seamless.

I never once had any doubt about how the day would go and plan on ranting and raving to anyone who will listen, about what a beautiful experience we had.

Thank You, Thank You Thank You!!!!

Dear Paul & Magda

As soon as we left, we missed Coconut Cove! You really felt like our family while we were there, and we are so thankful for everything you have done for us.

Our relatives are already looking for our 1 year anniversary there! (We told them we need time to recover first)

Please feel free to direct any potential clients our way for testimonials to http://www.gregandselena.com.
.

We would be more than happy to tell them how all our guests claimed this was "THE BEST WEDDING EVER" just as you said! We also have some beautiful pictures of the set up of the resort that we will email, and you can use.

Hello Paul and Magda, 
This is Mark and Betty Reed. Exactly one year ago today we were married on the beach at Coconut Cove. We enjoyed every single minute we were there. We had planned on visiting Coconut Cove this week, however, my sister is 9 months pregnant so we had to change our plans. We are planning a trip to the Keys over Christmas and New Year's. We would love to stop by and see you guys when we get there. We hope all is well with the family and the business. Thank you so much for making our special day so wonderful. We, along with all of our guests still talk about our wedding weekend. 
Take Care, 

"If I do not exceed all your expectations and here from your guest it is the best wedding they have ever attended I will not be happy, because it happens EVERY wedding"
