About this venue

Your wedding is no ordinary day, so why should you celebrate at an ordinary venue? Your wedding day takes place ON the water aboard the 125' SOLARIS Yacht, cruising from the Baytowne Marina inside of the Sandestin Golf & Beach Resort. Choose to utilize the Sky Deck as your private ceremony space with 360-degree waterfront views or let our wedding planners help you in planning a ceremony offsite on the beach, in a garden, or at another nearby venue. Your wedding package includes access to a dedicated wedding planner, day of coordinator(s), executive chef, florist, and event staff. In addition to the use of the yacht, included in your base package is your choice of catering, bar package*, DJ/entertainment*, tables, banquet chairs, white linens, chinaware, silverware, and glassware. Our wedding planners can assist you in planning your entire wedding weekend to include Bonfire Rehearsal Dinners, a "Day After the Big Day" at Crab Island, and more!

Destination Wedding Dreams

I highly recommend SunQuest Cruises for your destination wedding! Their planning team is AMAZING and I felt so comfortable planning from out of state. The entire team from the wedding planners to the day of coordinators to the staff on the yacht were so incredibly sweet and we felt held and celebrated throughout the entire experience. We love the idea of coming back to celebrate our anniversaries on their dinner cruises. Thank you for giving us our dream wedding, SunQuest!

Everything I've ever dreamed of & more!

1000/10 recommend celebrating your wedding day on a yacht! Our wedding aboard the Solaris will forever be my most favorite day. Their wedding planning team provided everything - florals, dinner, bar, rentals, the works! It was a stress-free experience and I wish that we could relive this day over and over again.

Destin Florida Weddings on SOLARIS Yacht | Wesley & Karley

Feb 28, 2019

It was a perfect fall day to celebrate the love of Wesley and Karley with a stunning Destin Florida wedding and reception on the SOLARIS yacht. Their love began at Auburn University and it was one of the many things that tied them together. We all know how the South feels about their College Football Teams and Wesley and Karley were no exception. In fact, the Auburn College Football schedule took priority over the scheduling of their wedding. The most important thing about fall to them is watching Auburn football and luckily Auburn was not playing on Saturday, Oct 27th which made the perfect wedding day for them.

Although there was no Auburn football that day, Wesley and Karley’s passion for Auburn was apparent throughout the entire Destin wedding. They chose Auburn colored garters adorned with football charms. Probably our favorite way that they personalized their wedding was with an Auburn Pom Pom send off. At the close of their reception, Karley and Wesley paraded through a sea of white pom poms shaken by their guests while the newlyweds were holding their prized Auburn pom poms.

The lasting memory Karley has from the last wedding she attended was how stressed the bride was, so finding an all-inclusive Destin wedding venue and all-inclusive wedding company like SunQuest Cruises was extremely important to her. With their busy daily lives, Karley and Wesley needed a team of local experts to help them with all the expected (and unexpected!) details before, during and after their Destin wedding. Wesley is in the construction industry and Karley is a veterinarian. In fact, Karley was helping aid animals affected by Hurricane Michael just weeks before their wedding.

A Dream Destin Wedding

Our wedding planners worked closely with Karley and Wesley to get to know them as a couple and execute their personalized vision for their Destin wedding. The couple envisioned a traditional Destin wedding that was romantic and elegant. Their wedding featured a stunning color scheme of silver and grey, embellished with pearls, lace and a ton of Caspar (white) pumpkins. Our wedding planners arranged elegant cream and white roses for the bouquets, boutonnieres and centerpieces.

The stunning focal point of the wedding decor was the bridal platform of the SOLARIS Yacht sky deck. Our wedding planners adorned the arch with breathtaking arrangements of cream and white roses with green accents, candles and a cross centerpiece, all surrounded by Caspar pumpkins. Wesley and Carley also remembered their loved ones in heaven and paid tribute to them with touching signs with their names on them.

Karley stunned in a white lace wedding dress that fit her like a glove, with her hair swept up to show the intricate lace cut-out details on the back of her dress. She chose a romantically elegant floor length veil that perfectly complemented her dress and draped the floor behind her. And their photographer perfectly captured the first-look moments of Karley in her dream dress before the wedding.

Their Destin wedding photographer, Noelle from Capture Destiny, is a preferred SOLARIS photographer who is familiar with the SOLARIS yacht wedding venue and perfectly captured each special moment. Some of our favorite pictures are the first-look moments between Karley and her dad and another between Karley and her soon-to-be husband. Their expressions were priceless!

It was a picture perfect fall day in Sandestin for Wesley and Karley’s wedding on the sky deck of the SOLARIS yacht as glistening waters and sweeping views served as the backdrop. Everyone gathered on the third, open air sky deck including their guests, our officiant Captain Steve, Wesley and their wedding party consisting of 4 bridesmaids and 4 groomsmen. Karley’s Dad proudly walked her down the aisle to meet her love at the altar, so beautifully adorned with their custom flowers and decor. Karley’s veil draped down the altar stairs, a romantic touch to this amazing wedding.

Their Reception

After a touching wedding that was sealed with a kiss, Karley and Wesley took pictures with their family and wedding party while guests moved down to the main deck for the reception. Our wedding planners carried their colors and themes throughout the reception. Reception decor included silver chairs and long banquet tables draped with white linens and silver-toned lace linens along with gorgeous white rose centerpieces and mini white Caspar pumpkins. Guests enjoyed unlimited views of the Sandestin resort coastline and waters from all the panoramic windows. Crystal chandeliers hung throughout the dining rooms, complimenting the glistening waters nearby.

Wesley and Karley had their first dance as husband and wife as well as dances with their family and friends throughout the main deck. Guests enjoyed a decadent wedding menu prepared by executive Chef Josh and his team, including prime steaks. For dessert, Karley and Wesley had a beautiful silver and white cake with lace details and white rose accents by our wedding planners.

After their Auburn pom pom exit, Karley and Wesley snuck away across the street to the beach with their wedding party to capture a few more amazing pictures. A perfect ending to a perfect wedding for a perfect couple. Here’s to a lifetime of happiness and blessings Wesley and Karley!

How To Plan Your Wedding

We’re a husband and wife photo and video team for fun-loving couples planning destination weddings and elopements in the Florida panhandle.

HEY FRIEND, WE’RE TABITHA + KEVIN!

Today, we’re setting sail on the love boat – quite literally. Imagine a wedding that’s not only a celebration of love but also a fantastic voyage on the Gulf of Mexico. We’re talking about a chill and unforgettable wedding on the Solaris Yacht in the sunny haven of Destin, Florida. So, grab your shades and come aboard as we spill the deets on this awesome nuptial adventure!

Clarke and Alexis celebrated their wedding day with the help of Sunquest Beach Weddings – one of the best coordinating companies on the Gulf Coast. The day began with Alexis getting ready at a beautiful condo near Pompano Joes in Destin. The condo was neutral in color and the primary bedroom had fantastic natural light via a sliding glass door which made hair and makeup a breeze. The neutral color palette and ability to access shadows made my photographers heart sing.

Of course we gathered all the girls up for some photos in their matching pajamas. Alexis did an awesome job choosing her getting ready ensemble and opted for a button down top, making it easy to change into her bridal gear without messing up her hair.

Honestly when groups laugh this easy I know its going to be an awesome day.

Alexis opted to have a first look with her bridesmaids which gave her a bit of peace and quiet (something rare on wedding days). Her grandmother came in to help with jewelry and then Alexis’ mom stepped in to help her with the dress.

This group was so excited and happy for Alexis, it was almost palpable.

Alexis also chose to have a first look with both dad and stepdad. The tears were flowing freely at this point!

Alexis’ getting ready room also boasted a deck overlooking the gulf of Mexico. Her crew stepped outside for some photos prior to the ceremony and the vibes were perfect.

Clarke got ready with his group of guys at another condo close to Henderson Beach State Park where the ceremony was being held. It was a short 5 minute drive which made the fact that I mistook the ceremony start time by an hour (thought it started at 4 but it started at 5) even more awkward by all of us arriving super early. Thankfully everyone were good sports about it saying they’d rather be early than late. Plus we were able to get some fun photos with Clarke and his guys prior to the ceremony.

The moment everyone waits for – when the groom sees his bride for the first time. Clarke shed a few tears which was so sweet and Alexis looked like a vision in white walking towards him down the boardwalk. She even chose to share this walk with both dad and stepdad, making the moment even more poignant.

After the ceremony we stayed at Henderson to get some more photos with the wedding party while the majority of guests whisked off to SanDestin to board the Solaris Yacht.

We were rewarded with a gorgeous, glowy, golden sunset!

Once on board Alexis and Clarke shared their first dance as husband and wife, then we set sail! The ship takes a cruise around the Destin bay (don’t worry about seasickness, it’s a super smooth ride) and has some amazing features that make the experience absolutely magical.

One of which is the top deck dance floor outfitted with string lights and a full sound system! Imagine floating under the stars around the bay in Destin on your own private yacht – drink in hand and surrounded by your friends and family.

The couple ended the night with a private dance which gave time for their guests to disembark and get ready for the grand exit.

Sparklers are always a great send off!
