The BEST day ever. I’m so grateful for Grace River and for Karen & Mike. They were so helpful and made sure we had everything we needed for our day. We spent the whole long weekend there. The house is so beautiful and was fully remodeled. So perfect for our full bridal party to stay. We also brought out boat! We had 100 people and it was absolutely perfect. We will come back to this property 100%. So many compliments from our friends and family. I would do this day over a million times!!!

My partner and I recently had the pleasure of hosting our wedding at Grace River Island Resort and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience. The hosts, Mike and Karen, were the kindest individuals we could have hoped for. It was evident that they were genuinely invested in ensuring our special day went flawlessly. They were absolute all-stars during the planning process, too. They were always there to answer our questions promptly, providing detailed information and guidance whenever needed. Mike and Karen were also experts when it came to setting up and planning the day. They effortlessly coordinated all the elements of our special day, ensuring that everything flowed seamlessly. We also appreciate how prepared they were for the weather. We had concerns about potential rain on our wedding day, but the hosts had thought of everything. They had umbrellas at the ready, furniture under the tent, ready to be moved at event time. And, even though we had a light sprinkle here and there, we were able to delay our ceremony just a few minutes so that chairs could be dried off on the lawn. Although we never had full rain, we ended up having our reception in the clubhouse which was a blessing with how hot it was. And afterward, we still were able to enjoy dancing and socializing on the deck and throughout the whole property. Speaking of the venue itself, it was absolutely amazing. The setting was unlike anything we had ever seen before in SW Florida. The picturesque landscapes and breathtaking views provided the perfect backdrop for our ceremony and reception. The various lounge areas were such a wonderful, unique feature that really made Grace River Island a unique venue. Some of our favorite memories are from spending the weekend at the house. We rented it from Friday-Sunday and had the bridal party and some friends stay with us. It provided such a fun opportunity to celebrate with our closest friends and family all weekend. After the wedding, we all even decided to take a swim which was such a cool, core memory. Grace River Island Resort offers a one-of-a-kind experience that we and our guests will cherish forever. If you're looking for an amazing and truly unique wedding venue, look no further. We highly recommend this venue to anyone seeking a memorable experience.

The PERFECT destination wedding venue!! Your guests will be amazed! I just photographed a wedding at the Grace River Island Resort, was left speechless, and all I want to do is go back there! Plenty of accommodations, beautifully maintained property, owners who care deeply and are ready to help. I couldn’t recommend this total dream wedding venue any more!

Thank you again Grace River Island Resort .. for making our wedding day so memorable for us!

Before I begin, let me start by saying this was one of the easiest 5 star reviews I have ever made. I would give it 10 stars if I could! My wife and I had our wedding at Grace River Island on June 3rd, 2023. The tour of the venue had barely started before we decided this HAD to be our wedding venue. The property is beyond beautiful! We had toured a ton of venues, but once we saw Grace River Island we knew we had to have our wedding there. Not only is it a beautiful place, the property has 20 beds so our family could stay there with us during the weekend- that really sealed the deal. The ceremony spot right on the water, surrounded by the river on three sides, provides the perfect backdrop for incredible pictures. The property also provides three separate locations for the reception. We wanted to have the reception on their waterside deck, but the forecast was calling for rain. I can’t lie- we were very worried about this. We called Mike and Karen, the venue’s owners, and they provided us another plan. We secured a tent and had the reception in their clubhouse and courtyard. This ended up working out perfectly as we had access to A/C in the clubhouse and also had outdoor access under the tent in the courtyard. Everything was perfect! Rain is always a potential problem for summer weddings in Florida, but at Grace River Island you don’t need to worry about it because Mike and Karen have made sure that your wedding will be able to go on regardless of the weather. Speaking of Mike and Karen, the owners of the property, they are some of the nicest and most helpful people you could ever meet. From day one they were there to assist us in the planning process and immediately answer any questions we had. We are so grateful for them. All in all, our wedding at Grace River Island was amazing and we would recommend the venue without hesitation!

I was hired to coordinate a wedding at Grace River Island Resort. The owners, Mike & Karen, we’re super responsive, thorough and helpful. They helped with set up and tear down and made sure that tables were getting cleared as the night went on. The venue is absolutely stunning with water on all sides and a perfect view of the sunset. The ceremony site is perfectly manicured and they have tables, chairs and an arch In house available for their couples. They really thought of everything. It was a perfect setting for an intimate wedding. My clients were very happy! Thanks Mike & Karen for a smooth evening! Hope to work with you again soon!

My husband (then fiancé) and I spent months and months looking for the perfect place to say "i-do". We were coming from California and planning mid-pandemic, we knew we wanted a way to have all of our family and friends together in one place for multiple days and Grace River Island surpassed my expectations tremendously. We had only seen their online presence but Mike and Karen were extremely communicative and made the entire process stress free and enjoyable. The day we got to the island I was shocked, it was even better in person. Mike and Karen helped out with our rehearsal dinner the night before as well as the wedding day which was a dream come true, as we did not have a wedding planner. I could not be happier with how everything turned out and will forever be grateful that Mike and Karen allowed us the opportunity to get married on their property.
