Venue Two: Rosemary Beach
The next stop on our venue journey took us to the beautiful Rosemary Beach.
The West Green.

Beach Access area with Bath houses.
Town Hall - LOVE this.

Entrance to the Barbados Pool.
The Coquina Pool.
The low-down on Rosemary Beach:
Rosemary is gorgeous. Let's just cut to the chase. Everywhere you look families are laughing, riding bikes and just loving life. You can't help but feel like you have magically appeared in an Italian beach town once you step foot in Rosemary. From the architecture to the town square areas, this little beach haven will steal your heart. The West & East (not pictured) Greens are perfect for an outdoor tented wedding. And I LOVE the Town Hall. It is stunning inside and out and can hold around 250 people. Their a 4 pools, 2 of which are pictured. Each one is unique and all can serve as wonderful rehearsal dinner areas. The downfall to Rosemary is the cost and the hoops you must jump through to have your wedding there. Requirements include 3 house rentals for 4 days each, security guards, and following the alternating green policy. What? That's what I said. Chances are there will be another wedding happening at the same time as yours on a different part of the property. For vacations, Rosemary can make you feel like a very special guest, but when it comes to weddings, you feel more like a number.

Venue One: Carillon Beach
We will start with the original, the first venue that stole my heart: Carillon Beach.
Market Street! The strung lights are fabulous at night.
The low-down on Carillon:
Quaint beach town feel with gorgeous homes and a little downtown area. Carillon's beachfront and walkways to the beach are the prettiest along the Emerald Coast in my opinion. They have an in-house wedding coordinator, Carillon Weddings by Victoria, which is run by Victoria Volpone and her assistant Avis. They are WONDERFUL. (And Avis is a UGA graduate. GO DAWGS!) Coordination fees are included in the venue fees, which is rare and a wonderful service. They require that you use vendors from their preferred vendor list, but the vendors they have selected are all top notch. Though we love all of the selected vendors, there is not much wiggle room to minimize costs by using friends or other connections.
The chapel. How you speak to me. If only you held more than 90 people.
The garden surrounding the chapel. The trees are strung with lights. Mmmmm I love you.
The Village Green, a popular reception area.
Market Street! The strung lights are fabulous at night.
Market Street from the other direction with the chapel in the background. Pretty. Pretty.
