Let me know if you still need some!</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/islamoradakeys-brides#post-455995 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 07:54:20 +0000 Key Lime 455995@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I'm getting married in Islamorada&nbsp;in&nbsp;May.&nbsp; I'm using Floral Fantasy for flowers and Islamorada Bakery for the cake ("Bobs Bunz").&nbsp; FF wasn't too bad with prices, but I feel like my cake is a bit expensive (although I don't know the going rate for cakes these days).&nbsp;&nbsp; For cheaper cake options, I actually heard the Publix in Key Largo does a really nice job!&nbsp;</p> <p>If you're looking for vendors, I would check out the Islamorada chamber of commerce site which lists most of the vendors that were recommended to me:&nbsp; <a href="http://www.islamoradachamber.com/">http://www.islamoradachamber.com/</a>.&nbsp; Just click on wedding.&nbsp; Hope this helps!</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/islamoradakeys-brides#post-455957 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 07:22:16 +0000 smyley 455957@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I hope all those planning weddings in Islamorada have actually visited them first. Websites have a tendency to make things look much nicer than they really are. We took a long weekend to vist some places my daughter was considering and am so glad we did. We drove right in and right out of her top choice as it was a mess.</p> <p>Chica Lodge was a favorite and would have been the place if she'd kept her original DW plan. Wonderful!!</p> <p>Pierre's Restaurant &amp; Morada Bay were also fabulous!</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/islamoradakeys-brides#post-455922 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 06:28:27 +0000 IslamoradaBride 455922@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I'm getting married in Islamorada at the end of March. We are using Floral Fantasy, and I found their prices to be reasonable. I won't say they are a great steal or anything, but around what you would expect to pay anywhere.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/islamoradakeys-brides#post-433224 Wed, 28 Oct 2009 15:52:02 +0000 gretchin405 433224@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>@May B~The off-season down here in the Keys begins just after Labor Day and runs until President's Day (with the exception of Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years).&nbsp; The temperatures are usually in the low 80s...it's been unseasonably hot this year though!&nbsp; The one thing I will say about the rain, is that you should always have a plan B in place, but you likely won't know if you have to activate it until about 1 hour prior.&nbsp; As they say, "if you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes"!</p> <p>High season is March through May...this is when you can expect prices and hotel rates to be the highest.&nbsp; I know a few great event planners down here and I would be happy to give you their contact info to assist in finding a venue that allows outdoor catering.&nbsp; PM me if you would like their info.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/islamoradakeys-brides#post-236441 Tue, 23 Jun 2009 10:48:54 +0000 Miss Sapphire 236441@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Bump. </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/islamoradakeys-brides#post-201560 Thu, 14 May 2009 07:47:21 +0000 Miss Sapphire 201560@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Anyone been to the Albertson's floral department in Key West? &nbsp;The bids I'm getting from traditional florists are so outrageous!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks!&nbsp;</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/islamoradakeys-brides#post-201556 Thu, 14 May 2009 07:45:14 +0000 May B 201556@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Hey everyone!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>I am new to wedding bee and just recently got engaged.&nbsp; Me and fiance planning to have wedding in islamorada next year (maybe during May?).&nbsp; What is the off season there where the weather is nice and lower chance of raining ( I know you can't predict Florida rain sometimes !).&nbsp; Would love to know what vendors are recommended down there.&nbsp; Also is it even possible to find a reception site where we can have outside caterers down there? My fiance really loves samosas and indian food and wanted to incorporate some of that cuisine into our wedding.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Any help would be soooo great! I'm swimming in internet sites! </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/islamoradakeys-brides#post-198843 Mon, 11 May 2009 13:26:20 +0000 Miss Sapphire 198843@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>We've actually decided to go with the Hyatt. &nbsp;Their inside space for the reception is beautiful and unique. &nbsp;Plus we don't have to pay and rent a lot of extras that were being tacked on at the other locations like a tent, tent liner, cake, etc. &nbsp;It's a more complete package. </p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/islamoradakeys-brides#post-198049 Sun, 10 May 2009 19:25:43 +0000 Lex314 198049@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Where in Key West? We are going back and forth between West Palm Beach &amp; Islamorada, but Key West is beautiful as well.&nbsp; </p>
