Ceremonies

At The Island, your ceremony can be as unique as your love story. Exchange vows on our stunning ceremony pad, where you’ll be surrounded by lush, vibrant plant life and framed by a beautiful arch, creating a picturesque setting that feels both intimate and expansive. Or, if you dream of feeling the soft sand beneath your feet, you can choose to say “I do” on the beach, with the gentle sounds of the water as your backdrop and the open sky above. Whether you’re drawn to the serene beauty of greenery or the romantic beachside setting, The Island offers the perfect place for your extraordinary day.

Do you have dedicated wedding coordinators?

Yes, we partner with top-tier coordinators to ensure your day runs flawlessly. We require at least month-of coordination and highly recommend 3-month or full-service planning. Please reach out for pricing details.

Cheers to Forever Together

Receptions

Celebrate your love on a breathtaking four-acre private island, where every moment of your wedding reception feels as magical as the next. Picture yourself transitioning effortlessly from your ceremony, surrounded by nature on the pad, to a reception in the tent that flows with beauty and ease. The island provides everything you need to create a dreamy atmosphere—elegant round dining tables, cozy seating for up to 250 guests, and all the tableware, linens, and glassware that add those perfect touches. Bar staffing ensures your guests are always taken care of, while one hour of rehearsal time allows you to feel completely at ease before your big day. For larger celebrations, we’re happy to accommodate, and a shuttle bus can be arranged to ensure your guests enjoy the full experience. From the first toast to the last dance, your reception on the island will be a day you’ll never forget.
