    Yours truly

    Awesome venue to host a wedding , or a special event. The outside ambiance was breathtaking with the bambo. The inside of the building up and downstairs with a bar on each floor. Awesome facility.

    Came tonight for a special event. Thanks to NOVA 535 for hosting the Art of Hearing event tonight. (https://soundingjoy.org/). A special venue supporting a special cause. Will definitely come back again for other events. Staff was solid and friendly. The inside is open and adaptable for just about any event.

    I have attended many events at NOVA 535 based soley on the venue! I seldom decline the opportunity to celebrate something at NOVA. The best vibe in St. Petersburg is both warm and edgy, the lighting possibilities are endless, and the sound system can blow your hair back. The whole team takes great pride in providing excellent service in such a beautiful place. I'm almost tempted to get married again just to have the NOVA 535 wedding experience. Almost;)

    Beautiful ambience for a wedding venue or any social events ! Service and lighting were gorgeous.

    If I could give the property and the company two different ratings I would…read more The layout of the property; the backyard, the private entrance to the beach, just enough dunes to create a great look - all are perfect. The company who manages it: Sue, Jake and Simon are a different story. Jake makes promises that he can't keep. Sue isn't organized and visible overwhelmed. Didn't work with Simon much, but when we did he backtracked on a lot of his answers to questions. No one could give me a solid answer on lights. Lights were supposedly hung by a licensed electrician. I've never seen a licensed electrician leave power cords with exposed openings hanging on the side of the building. Sue is great for trying to make the property's problem, your problem. Make sure you get EVERYTHING in writing. My clients absolutely LOVED the property which is THE only reason we stayed. If you use this property, please please please, get a day of coordinator to handle the mess of Sue and Simon (Jake has been MIA for months)! Don't rely on them or you may end up with LED backyard lights!

    We hired Suncoast weddings a year in advance from Kansas. Our wedding consisted of a unlimited…read moreconsultation, rehearsal, videotographer, ceremony, and reception - set up and tare down. It was a shame to learn a week prior that Sarah, our wedding planner for the past year, would be unable to attend our events. As expected (without the original wedding planner) a few things went wrong along the way. I confronted Sue, the owner, with the issues in writing via email and she made it right with us in the end. We are confident since the company took responsibility we will be able to put the small things behind us in our future memories of our big day with the closure we received. It was a beautiful day on Clearwater Beach and we do have a lot to applaud Sun Coast Wedding for! I just wish it was perfect, but doesn't every bride? :) My advice: read your contract and make sure your original planner will be at your wedding! There were a few things I was promised and/or misunderstood with my original planner. Such as, Sun Coast is not your wedding "coordinators". They are your wedding "planners". Example: If you have things that need to be set up (like personal decor) they are not responsible for setting it up because it is not in the contract. So make sure everything is in writing in the contract, not just agreed upon via email or phone. Congratulations and good luck!

    We just had our wedding with Gulf Beach Weddings…read more The staff had always been very accommodating, especially with all my last minute changes. This is a very laid back, low key type wedding which is what we wanted! If you're a bridezilla and want a high maintenance fussy wedding then this is not for you. There were lots of beach goers on the beach but they didn't bother us one bit and the staff made sure no one intervened with me walking down the aisle. Yes the flowers they use on the arches are fake but that didn't bother me. I'm sure if you wanted to pay a florist tons of money to do that then you could. We did the Upham Beach location just because it happened to be across from our condo. But parking at this location was definitely an issue for our guests considering it was a gorgeous 80 degree Sunday so it was very busy. We also really like that the paradise grille was right there so our guests could stop for a quick drink prior to the ceremony. The photographer provided with the package was amazing as well! So friendly and totally passionate about her profession. She made everyone very comfortable and kept the flow going well! If you're looking for low key, no fuss then this is for you!

    My wedding was at the Pensacola park East location. I would have changed the time to maybe 3pm…read morebecause of how bad traffic was around 4:30pm that day. It was on a Saturday but even leaving at 4 pm to be there by 5pm, and I was only 15 min away but it was still not early enough! Consider having your wedding earlier if you decide to book a wedding with this location in Pensacola. Took about 1 hr to get to my wedding! One other mishap was the violinist was late but probably due to traffic, she was a ok violinist but I wish the music was louder, the waves from the ocean were loud so you could not really hear the music that well. She also played the music I picked in the wrong order. Other than that everything was good! The set up was beautiful! Weather was perfect! Something is always going to happen on your wedding day and I hope this review will help other people with their wedding plans:)

    I highly recommend Shannon Crona Wilson and Table 6 Productions! Soon after my fiancé proposed to…read moreme, I reached out to Shannon to discuss hiring her to be our wedding planner. I'll admit that planning a wedding is out of my league. Additionally, I work part-time and I'm studying to be a psychiatrist. My husband is a biological scientist and conservation planner, which requires him to frequently travel. Not only did we not have any idea where or how to begin planning a wedding, but we also both have very little free time. From our first interaction with Shannon, we were extremely impressed. In fact, our first interaction with Shannon was on a Friday night since that was the only time that our schedules allowed us to talk with her. Throughout the nine months that we worked with her to plan our wedding, Shannon always communicated with us when it was most convenient for us - including nights, weekends, and even holidays. Because we live in Tallahassee, FL - the location of our wedding - and Table 6 Productions is located in St Petersburg, FL, Shannon communicated with us by phone and email. Shannon worked with every vendor involved in our wedding, which included negotiating and securing contracts with them. Although Shannon was working outside of the area of our wedding venue, the planning process was seamless. Shannon listened to our ideas for our wedding, and she then turned our dreams into reality. We have no idea if Shannon was working with other couples during the time that she was planning our wedding, as she never mentioned it. Shannon gave my husband and I VIP treatment, making us both feel like royalty. Since wedding planning is about your big day, why wouldn't you want to feel like you are the most important couple in the world? We set an original budget, which Shannon strived hard to adhere to. We did exceed it, but that was only by our choice. Shannon was very conscientious with regards to our budget, and she made recommendations about rentals and other aspects of our wedding that were not necessary in an attempt to stay within our original budget. Again, we only went over our original budget by choosing to have specific elements in our wedding that were not originally discussed with Shannon. Three months prior to our wedding date, Shannon made a trip to Tallahassee, FL to meet with all of our vendors, my husband, and myself. Several of our vendors mentioned to us that they were impressed that Shannon came to meet with them in person, as that is rare for other wedding planners that they've worked with - including ones who live in our area. In fact, all of our vendors and everyone involved in our wedding informed us how friendly Shannon was and what a pleasure she was to work with. Shannon's knowledge of the wedding industry, coupled with her attention to detail, allowed her to execute every aspect of planning our wedding with flawless precision and class. There is no possible way that our wedding would have come to fruition without Shannon's help. Over the course of planning our wedding with Shannon, we became so close that we consider her more than our wedding planner - she is valued as a member of our family. We utilized Shannon and Table 6 Productions for full-service wedding planning, which was the best decision we've ever made. On the day of our wedding, we enjoyed relaxing and spending time with our friends and family. The only thing that we had to do on our wedding day was show up to our venue and marry one another. Shannon coordinated every aspect of setting up for our wedding with our vendors, as well as the clean-up that took place afterwards. Several of our friends and family members who attended our wedding later mentioned to us that they wish Shannon was their wedding planner when they were married. They added that they had never seen a wedding flow as smoothly as ours did. To say that my husband and I are pleased with the service we received from Shannon and Table 6 Productions would be an understatement. Shannon exceeded our expectations and created the most memorable experience of our lives. We are forever thankful!

    I could not be happier with my wedding day and I owe it all to Shannon Wilson!…read moreAn experienced and well connected wedding planner can make your money go a long way. She helped me stay on budget without having to make any sacrifices. She was so easy to communicate with-It was like having your most competent girlfriend (the one that also happens to have all the connections) laser focused on bringing your dreams to reality. She helped me sort through the countless vendors and matched me perfectly with each one based both on personalities and expectations. Shannon kept all the contracts together, reminded me of due dates for payments, and coordinated timelines with all the vendors. My husband and I got to sit back and enjoy the planning process, because we knew we had a professional to steer us in the right direction. Each taste testing or mock up was like a fun date that only brought us closer as a couple. Shannon helped ensure that everything was to my taste and I thoroughly enjoyed one of the most memorable days of my life. I don't know what I would have done without you Shannon!

Ms. Amber took so much stress off of our hands when it came to planning, it was no joke! The packages offered by this company caters to EVERY detail of getting married and the wedding aspect. Ms. Amber made sure that although we were doing a destination wedding, we were in great hands on every aspect! Ms. Amber is literally super woman and the best planner of all time! She was real with us when she needed to be (especially about our budget, our interesting families, and being on time), had our back when only TWO people, besides our parents, showed up to rehearsal, and was there for every phone call, moment of freaking out, both of our questions.concerns, Type-A personalities, text messages, and wedding planning meeting. She was so detail oriented to the point of mapping out every detail of what we wanted and seeing those ideals come forth to fruition was breath taking! She even ended up being our officiant, and we could not ask for any other person so lead us into marriage..Even down to my makeup and hair artist...she picked the perfect artist just for me and she made me look like a sea goddess!! We were able to have our dream beach ceremony, our dream reception venue, and everything else in between because of this company and we are so thankful! Because of working with Amber, we were at peace most of planning and had nothing to worry about! Even down to the day when we were doing the final clarification of ceremony music, I literally SANG music and Amber was right there talking me through the names because I was stressing and could not remember the artists. We will definitely be seeing Simple Beach Weddings for renewing our vows in a few years as well. If you are looking for a company that cares about you, knows the area, caters to you and your partner exclusively, and just overall is just an awesome company that takes care of everything you need for your marriage and wedding. Simple Weddings is the company to go with!!!! Thank you so much to Ms. Amber, Mr. Anthony, and the whole Simple Weddings team for making our dream come true! We are still on cloud 9 about how marvelous this whole experience was! If you are planning a beach wedding, destination wedding, basically ANY form of wedding, DO NOT go to any other company besides Simple Weddings, and be sure to have Ms. Amber take care of you! They are darn good at their job!!!!! We LOVE SIMPLE WEDDINGS!! Musically Yours, Fabian & Ashley Moore from Atlanta, GA
