"The Most Beautiful Wedding Venue in Florida!", An Eventective User from Sarasota, FL
Selby Gardens is one of the most breathtaking locations in Sarasota, and in all of Florida! It is a huge property filled to the brim with exotic trees and plants, and even has a butterfly garden. There is also a mansion on location for holding indoor ceremonies and receptions, either by choice, or in case of inclement weather. They are by far one of the most highly rated wedding and special event venues in the area. What makes it even more appealing is that its location is right on the bay, where you will find sailboats floating in the water nearby. It couldn't be more picturesque!
Although you're permitted to hold your ceremony anywhere on the property, there are a few I would definitely recommend considering, starting with the massive Bayside Oak tree, the Pavilion, and the Great Lawn!

When you call to speak with a special event coordinator at Selby Botanical Gardens, you couldn't ask for better service or nicer, more considerate people. They are very well informed, and can help you with many aspects of the wedding and the planning process. They even offer catering, for example. Be sure to check with their rules, as they do have a few that might interfere with certain plans… usually minor things like not being permitted to scatter rose petals (at least when I was planning my wedding).

No matter what, you couldn't ask for a more pristine, memorable location for a perfect wedding, especially if you're an out-of-town bride!
