Nokomis Beach
Nokomis Beach is beautiful and has plenty of parking, bathroom facilities, Pops Sunset Grill and Pelican Alley Restaurant within walking distance.
North Jetty Park - Nokomis
The North Jetty Park is gorgeous. Plenty of parking, shaded pavilions (available to rent), bathroom and concession s.
Venice Beach - Downtown
Venice Beach is gorgeous. It's close to downtown, with plenty of parking and facilities. It does get busy, but the proximity to downtown Venice is amazing.
Venice Beach - By Sharky's
Venice Beach by Sharky's provides ample parking, direct access to Sharky's and Fins restaurants with the Venice fishing pier as your backdrop.
Siesta Key Beach & Turtle Beach
Siesta Key is one of the most well-known beaches in the world, but is it right for your celebration? Siesta is a very popular and because of that, it can get quite congested. However, at the right times, it can be incredible. There are plenty of options here, from the main beach, to other beach access points throughout the village and of course, the less popular Turtle Beach.
Manasota Key Beach - Englewood
Fun Englewood beach with plenty of parking and facilities.
Englewood Beach
A lively beach with plenty of parking and across from great restaurants and tikis. This beach took a beating during the hurricane season of 2024 and has not fully recovered. Beach erosion, strong winds and water have damage many areas of the beach. Please check-in with us to find the latest status.
Stump Pass Beach - State Park
A beautiful location. It was hit VERY hard in the 2024 hurricane season and continues to heal. If you are coming via boat, there are some great opportunities for a very unique wedding.
Blind Pass Beach - Englewood
A gorgeous small beach on Manasota Key that typically gets passed over for the larger Manasota Key or main Englewood Beach.
Lido Beach
Lido Beach has an incredible amount of beach before you even get to the water. Beach renourishment is underway in late Spring 2026. Please note, there is an exposed black pipe that runs the length of the beach which will require proper placement of the couple in order to get best photos. Parking is limited here and it is a pay parking. There are very few facilities here. However, there are a some gorgeous resorts and motels on the key. There is also the Ritz Carlton Beach Club which is available to rent for private events.
Cortez / Coquina Beaches - Bradenton Beach
Beautiful white sand leads to turquoise water. Parking is limited at Cortez Beach, ample parking at Coquina. These area become VERY congested during season Nov-April daily and on weekends and holidays off season. Parking can be a nightmare. I HIGHLY recommend renting a vacation home or staying at a beachfront resort/motel and having ceremony there for all weddings on AMI. An impromptu wedding with just a couple of folks at all beaches in AMI is possible easily.
Manatee Beach - Anna Maria Island
Located in the heart of Anna Maria Island. Loads of parking, on-site restaurant, shops and white sand forever. NOTE ABOUT AMI - crowds can be large in season and over weekends. If you are looking for something intimate, I'd recommend, booking at a beach front motel or resort and have ceremony there. Other areas are VERY congested at popular times.
