Like I said I've never been there but form what she said maybe I would ask about this?&nbsp; If your guests have allergies or asthma might be something worth asking about. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Good luck and tell me how it goes :) </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/have-you-been-to-or-any-brides-who-wed-at-the-hemingway-house-in-key-west#post-167136 Fri, 03 Apr 2009 19:05:18 +0000 BeachBrideT 167136@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Hi Bell--- yeah, October was pretty bad a few years in a row during hurricane season. The past 2 have been quiet, but you never know. I would say the peak is August, September and October.</p> <p>I think I already gave you the info I had on the Hemingway House. But &nbsp;Beesknees makes a GREAT point about Fantasy Fest. This is an absolutely insane weekend in Key West, and if you have some conservative wedding guests, they might feel a bit out of place. So I would google Key West &nbsp;&amp; events for your wedding month &amp; see what comes up. They have lots of different events and since Key West is so small, if a certain group is in town (like bikers, for example), they seem to really overtake the island!</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/have-you-been-to-or-any-brides-who-wed-at-the-hemingway-house-in-key-west#post-158501 Tue, 24 Mar 2009 16:08:42 +0000 beesknees 158501@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>we've had some doozies of hurricane's or strong tropical storms in florida in October. &nbsp;October is fairly active. &nbsp;Also keep in mind key west will evacuate even if the storm has a moderate chance of coming close, and they will evacuate up to 3 days ahead of storms arrival. </p> <p>&nbsp;this past september we were mandatorily evacuated, even though the storm changed course but there was a chance it would come through. (we were there from miami)The hotel said we had to go too. &nbsp;Just keep that in mind. </p> <p>&nbsp; i'm really really not trying to be a wet blankie here, but after living in south florida for years (some of those in KW) I know to expect the oddball storm. I heart key west soooo much too- it would make for a fabulous wedding weekend. &nbsp;Just make sure you have a back up plan (to your back up plan) if its during hurricane season.</p> <p>ALSO FANTASY FEST is in October. &nbsp;plan around that too. &nbsp;:)&nbsp;</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/have-you-been-to-or-any-brides-who-wed-at-the-hemingway-house-in-key-west#post-158491 Tue, 24 Mar 2009 15:55:08 +0000 bellenga 158491@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Thanks alot!&nbsp; Am familiar with the hurricane season as I'm a GA girl and was born on a carribbean island!&nbsp; Usually October is safe..</p> <p>I have a gf that told me today she's getting married in sept on the beach (panhandle) of FL!&nbsp;&nbsp; Crossing my fingers for her...&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/have-you-been-to-or-any-brides-who-wed-at-the-hemingway-house-in-key-west#post-158404 Tue, 24 Mar 2009 13:58:33 +0000 yorkie 158404@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I've never attended a wedding there, but did see one being set up on my last visit.&nbsp; It was in the garden and was lovely!&nbsp; We weren't engaged at the time, but FI mentioned that it would be a perfect venue. </p> <p>If you haven't yet set a date, keep in mind that hurricane season runs June-November, though some months are historically more active than others.&nbsp; As a Miami native, that was a factor for me in picking our outdoor summer wedding date. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/have-you-been-to-or-any-brides-who-wed-at-the-hemingway-house-in-key-west#post-155346 Thu, 19 Mar 2009 18:32:25 +0000 bellenga 155346@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Please let me know your experiences.&nbsp; Help an ATL girl out!&nbsp; I've toured the home before, but only as of recent, considered it for a possible wedding venue!</p> <p>thank you so very much in advance and much love! </p>
