If this Christmas is like those of Christmas' past, there were a few million proposals offered near the
glow of a yule fire or Christmas tree this year. Sound familiar and now researching your options?
Thanks for finding me. My goal with Conch Concierge is to offer a comprehensive, reliable resource
for accurate and relevant information regarding Key West and the Florida Keys. A place I love.
While the name is Conch Concierge, my primary vocation is to work as a wedding officiant, planner and
photographer. I want to make your wedding and honeymoon experience in Key West the best that it can possibly be. The weddings I'm involved in tend to have between 2-100. The average is probably around 20 persons. If this sounds like you, please continue...
You might be wondering, with all of the options available, where do I start? One place might be to
choose a date, officiant and then location. Assuming you've decided on Key West, you might also want to decide if your nuptials will be on land or sea. Another place to start might be to decide on a budget and who you plan to invite. They are frequently related.
There are a number of reasons couples choose a destination wedding. Sometimes budget (believe it or
not, usually destination weddings are cheaper than those at home). I frequently hear that it was getting
so crazy trying to satisfy so many different opinions or "needs" from friends and relatives, the wedding
was taking a life of it's own. To get back to "reality" couples decide to change course and make a bee-line to Key West. Instead of inviting everyone, those who can make the trek to Key West will come
and those who couldn't make it can see the photos (or video). No one is offended this way, well maybe
fewer anyway.
Please consider this:
There isn't one right way or one right reason to plan a destination wedding. But the main reason is
to satisfy your needs and create the ceremony that satisfies you and reflects your wishes.
Please consider me your ally in this regard. Ask for my advice and you shall recieve the benefit of my experience making wedding dreams come true.
Above all, happy planning!
Blue Skies,
Michael
