The Chapel at Seaside
With its glowing white façade, bell tower, pitched roof, and sophisticated interior, the Seaside Chapel has been a sought-after wedding venue in the quaint beach town of Seaside for many years. Everyone knows a wedding should be cheery, full of love and laughter, and the large windows allow for just that. Florida sunbeams stream through those windows, creating a radiant and romantic ambiance for the bride, groom, and their guests. Southern Living Magazine called the chapel one of the south’s most beautiful chapels, while the chapel has also received awards for being one of South Walton’s best wedding venues. If you’re looking for a laid-back, yet traditional church ceremony, the Seaside Chapel is for you.
Eastern Green in Rosemary Beach
The Eastern Green provides the perfect setting for a large outdoor wedding, while maintaining an intimate feel. The expansive lawn is nestled in a residential, yet luxurious, part of the community. It overlooks the tranquil South Walton beach, providing majestic views of the sand dunes, sandy shore, and blue-green waves. These views make for a beautiful wedding ceremony backdrop and wedding photos. On the Eastern Green, you can enjoy all the benefits of a beach wedding without having to worry about getting sand everywhere!
Eden State Gardens
Say “I do” to your forever love in the fairytale-like setting of Eden State Gardens State Park. The famous “Wedding Tree” is a towering Virginia live oak, where countless couples have made their vows. Others have chosen the Heritage Rose Gardens as their wedding day backdrop. In addition to the pristine and natural setting, the venue offers a screened pavilion for rent and a caterer’s kitchen. To make the bride and groom’s day extra special, Eden State Gardens books only one wedding per day. With the venue to yourself, you can be sure that you will feel all the love on your wedding day!
Of course, these three venues aren’t the only ones available to couples planning a 30A wedding. Other venues include WaterColor Inn & Resort, Pearl Hotel in Rosemary Beach, Pointe on 30A, and more. You can also get married right on the beach when you book your event through certain vendors.
