Clearwater Beach Weddings
Our Clearwater Beach Weddings are celebrated at Sand Key Beach Park!
Clearwater Beach is a world-renowned destination, celebrated for its breathtaking beach weddings and year-round sunshine. With its pristine sands, expansive shoreline, and lush vegetation, Clearwater stands out as one of the most sought-after locations within our 24 miles of stunning beaches. Since 2001, Weddings On a Whim has proudly orchestrated thousands of unforgettable Clearwater Beach Destination Weddings.
Our favorite spot? The serene and spacious Sand Key Beach Park. This hidden gem offers nine different access points, making it the largest beach access in the area. The park’s natural beauty, with its striking rocks, rich vegetation, and wide-open spaces, provides endless photo opportunities—perfect for intimate Florida elopements or grand celebrations with loved ones.
By choosing a public beach wedding at this expansive location, couples can avoid costly resort fees and guest minimums, offering more freedom and flexibility. While there are permit fees for public beach ceremonies, our All-Inclusive Beach Packages make planning a breeze. We offer a variety of beautiful arch options, including bamboo, driftwood, and birchwood, to complement your dream wedding setting.
