If you’re going get married, this is the place to do it. The packages they offer are unlike any other venue that my husband and I toured. I cannot say enough kind words about the owners and their staff. They were amazing, so easy to work with, and they made sure everything went off without a hitch. We paid for them to set up and take down everything at the end of the night, gave all decision making to Katie, and she did not disappoint. If you’re looking for a venue so you don’t have to stress about the small details, this is your place.

We got married here on one of the glass bottom boats (Chief Potackee, the ADA one) and it was incredible. I did all my communication with them (Mackenzie) thru email as this was a destination "elopement" style minimony for us. Communication was incredible, all my questions were answered promptly, the boat was lovely and they were super accommodating the entire day. Captain Bill was also super amazing and accommodating the day of the rehearsal. The boat ceremony was very untraditional which was super us and we loved- however I will note that if you're looking for the traditional aisle walk, with ceremony starting immediately afterwards, the boat may not be what you're looking for. There technically is a "bridal room" for getting ready, but it's only included if you also book the ballroom reception space. I got a hotel room at the Holiday Inn across the street and got ready there- which was totally fine. Bride, groom & all guests/vendors are requested to get there 30 mins early, to get everyone on the boat. Then bride (and father/whoever) walks to the boat. No music (wasn't a problem for us, probably could have been done if you're creative about it tho). There is a bit (10 - 15min) of a boat ride to the ceremony "staging" area, in which you cannot stand because the boat is moving. Once you get to the staging area, you can stand and the ceremony starts. When the ceremony is over, you sit again and have whatever time left of the hour to do a mini boat tour. I would 1000% recommend this experience to anyone looking for a nontraditional ceremony experience.

My experience with Bobby and his crew was nothing short of amazing. The best part about working with them, is that they also assist and provide all decorations for the table, ceremony, reception ,cake table, bar. Their staff was friendly and interacted so well with all of my guest. Their food was hot and plentiful. The guest were all well fed and the food was delicious. They provide you with a concierge service and bring food and drinks to you while you are getting the photos taken in between the ceremony and the reception. Everything they do is thoughtful and attentive to every need for the bride and groom. They made each and every guest feel special as well. Bobby answered every email that I sent him through the entire planning process in a timely manner. He was open and willing to discuss all ideas that I had. He is also very creative and brought so many of his own thoughts and ideas to the table and made everything go so smooth. I highly recommend him and his team for weddings or any event you may have as they took a usual stressful situation and made it completely carefree for me and my husband. I am attaching photos below to show his creativity and ideas to make the venue look absolutely beautiful. All of this is included in his cost.

From our very first phone call with Kacie we knew she was the perfect person to trust with our wedding day. We felt so comfortable talking to her on our call, and her answers to our questions fit our needs just right. Our engagement shoot provided us a comfortable setting to get to work with each other, see how our personalities mesh, and get to know each other better before our big day. We had an absolute blast at our engagement shoot, and I am so glad we had that opportunity. Our pictures came out amazing and we got them back from Kacie within the time frame she told us. That shoot was the perfect set up to help us feel comfortable on our wedding day. Prior to the wedding day, Kacie communicated well about scheduling, timing, payments, expectations, and photo ideas. We went into the day with no worries as far as our photography. Kacie was amazing to work with on our wedding day. She did an awesome job of being patient with and navigating our family’s silly antics. She kept us going as close to schedule as possible. She was flexible and came up with back up plans quickly to work with issues such as the heat and the mud. She made sure to get all the shot we requested and tons of special candid shots. She was an amazing part of our wedding day, and if I had to go back and do it all again I would 1000% chose Kacie all over again. She got us sneak peaks soon after our wedding, and got our full album back to us in the time she told us. Our photos brought us to tears. They are such a precious reminder of our day. We have not stop scrolling through them! Kacie’s work is amazing! We would recommend her again and again without hesitation! We hope to get to work with her again in the futures for other special moments we hope to document. Thank you so much for your time, patience, and beautiful work, Kacie! We appreciate you so much!

Where to start... We had our wedding at Wildwood Vineyard and Events 3/4/23. From the moment we stepped foot on the property, the first handshake with Keisha, I knew this is where we were meant to get married. That first day 6/24/22, my now husband and I, sat down with Keisha and her husband, Phil. We had the entire wedding planned in 4 hours. The food, dj, photography, colors, decorations, the bar. This is not your typical "pick a package" venue. Keisha makes your dream wedding come true around YOUR budget. She does the leg work. You tell her what you want, and she makes it happen. I felt like I was working with family the entire time, as if we've known them forever and this was the first time meeting. Keisha and I talked almost every day after that. The day of the wedding was flawless. Not one thing went wrong. They surprised me with my wedding song, sung live. They were active the entire night. Whatever we needed, they were there. I could not have asked for better. It was a dream come true. The property is beautiful, well kept, and decorated. They have games and gorgeous, caged in fire places. Not only do they do weddings, but they also host events and are open to the public. We are so blessed to have come across this amazing couple. They really do it all, and we are forever thankful for them!!

I first realized that I loved photography back in 2011 when a couple friends and I went to Jacksonville beach. That is where I took my first favorite photo on the beach. My friend made a joke saying she found her personal photographer because the photo was so good. I was always the friend that love taking the photos, getting all the crazy angles laying on the ground, standing on top of things doing everything to get that perfect shot.

Trey was lovely to have at my sister in law’s wedding. Communication was great, photos turned out amazing! We loved how he was vocal about his vision for the shots and how to execute it. We made sure he was fed that good Filipino food!

Wayne’S World Entertainment 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,390
  • Serves Hawthorne, FL

I’ve been a DJ in Gainesville and the surrounding communities for over 20 years. I worked for the largest DJ company in the area for over 8 years, gaining valuable experience in working all sorts of weddings, parties and special events. After earning the reputation as one of the most respected DJs in the business, I decided to venture out on my own and create Wayne’s World.

We originally thought we would just create a playlist on our phone and make do for the wedding reception music, but as the date approached, we realized we wanted a professional DJ to keep the flow of the evening, make announcements, open the floor for toasts, and start the bouquet and garter toss, in addition to playing the music. We are so glad we made the decision to hire Wayne's World Entertainment as it took a huge weight off of our shoulders during the reception. The consultation was thorough and helpful, and he asked questions we hadn't even considered. Plus, he was one of the most affordable DJs we looked into, and we can't imagine what more expensive DJs could possibly provide that he didn't. He exceeded our expectations and then some!

Welcome! My name is Jaime Swanson and I am the owner of Sweet Serendipity Photography located in Gainesville, FL. I have been a wedding, newborn and boudoir photographer for over seventeen years. I am a mother of four amazing children and have been married to my husband for fourteen years. I am so very thankful for all of my clients that have allowed me to turn my passion into a career. In the past decade and a hald I have been blessed to travel near and far to work with amazing couples and tell their love stories through my captured images.

Jaime and her team are amazing photographers. There is no one else I would trust to photograph my wedding. My fiancé and I had never had professional photos taken together until our engagement session with Jaime. She helped us feel Addys in front of the camera and our photos were unbelievably gorgeous. Her eye for photography is unmatched. Hiring her was one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning process.

My Fiance & I recently booked our wedding at Villa Serafina. I am a local wedding coordinator so finding a venue that I wanted for my own wedding was not an easy feat but after seeing the venue in person, holy moly!!! The photos of this place don't even do it justice, as it is beautifully laid out for event flow, well-kept & going to be popular for sure. Make sure to check it out - you're going to love it!!! Great location as well between Gainesville, Tampa & Orlando - its about 1-hour between each location :)
