Have you reserved blocks of rooms at one or more hotels?

We are so excited for all of you to join us as we celebrate our wedding in Seaside, Florida! Seaside is a quaint oasis primarily offering Airbnb and VRBO rentals instead of robust hotel accommodations. We strongly recommend guests book airbnb’s or vrbo’s for the long weekend at Seaside or Watercolor (official dates 10/24 to 10/27). Watercolor is walking distance to the ceremony and reception venues, and provides access to several amenities (multiple pools, lazy river, Watercolor Beach Club, beach access, etc.) and typically all houses provide bikes and/or street legal golf carts to get around.
