TamRE,

That would be a great place for a wedding. Have you gone to any of the Thursday evening concerts they hold there?

It's was nice but quite uncomfortable in a suit having an outdoor wedding.

That would be another great place for a wedding! There are so many wonderful places to have weddings around here! And, the weather usually is reliable.

Thanks for all the replies so far. We're looking at several of those possibilities. I can see a wheelchair ramp in one of the photos of the Lashley Park gazebo. The Spanish Point chapel looks great but I'm waiting to hear back from them about accessibility. Anyone know if the gazebo in Gilchrist Park has a ramp?

I've never seen that floating chapel but that is really cool! Where are they located? I guess it brings new meaning to getting off to a rocky start. :-)

We had our wedding on the Floating Chapel as well. Captain Jill and Captain Orca are some of the nicest people we have ever met, and they did an awesome job at making sure everything went smoothly. They are located on US41 a little bit north of University, at the Sara Bay marina. They also have a non-denominational Sunday worship service every Sunday if you want a sneak peek. You can get more information on their website: Weddings On Water -Sarasota Bay Area's Most Unique Beach Wedding Venue I think we paid about $1295 for 25 people, but of course, numbers vary depending on the season, the number of people attending, any extra services you want, etc.
