St. Augustine Beach Wedding Packages With a Reception: Compare Your Options

The short answer: Sun and Sea Beach Weddings offers St. Augustine wedding packages with reception options currently listed from $4,150 for an intimate beach ceremony and tented social to $14,250 and above for a private beach-house wedding experience. Couples can choose a simple celebration on the sand, a historic downtown restaurant reception, a unique speakeasy-style venue or a multi-night beach-house wedding. The best package depends on your guest count, desired level of privacy, lodging needs and the type of reception you want.

Planning the ceremony and reception together can make a destination wedding significantly easier. Instead of hiring a planner, officiant, photographer, florist, rental company, caterer and venue separately, an inclusive package combines many of the major decisions into one coordinated experience.

Sun and Sea Beach Weddings has planned coastal celebrations throughout Northeast Florida and Georgia for more than 20 years. Our St. Augustine packages are designed for couples who want a beautiful beach ceremony followed by meaningful time with their guests—without spending their engagement managing a dozen disconnected vendors.

Pricing and package details were reviewed in September 2026. Prices, availability, taxes, permit fees, guest-count charges and inclusions can change. Request a customized proposal before making a final decision.

What Should You Compare Before Booking?

A package price only makes sense when you understand what it replaces. Before comparing two options, confirm whether each includes:

• Ceremony and reception planning
• Venue rental or private-event space
• Beach permit coordination
• Officiant
• Photography hours
• Arbor, aisle décor and guest seating
• Fresh flowers
• Reception tables, chairs, linens and centerpieces
• Catering and dessert
• Alcohol or beverage service
• DJ, recorded music or dancing space
• Lodging
• Weather backup
• Setup, breakdown, tax, service fees and gratuities

A less expensive base package may require more outside vendors, while a higher-priced option may include lodging, food, beverages, décor and staffing that would otherwise be separate expenses.

Why Book an Inclusive St. Augustine Wedding Package?

Destination weddings involve several connected timelines: venue access, beach conditions, vendor arrival, ceremony setup, photography, transportation and reception service. When these elements are booked independently, the couple often becomes the person responsible for making everything line up.

An inclusive Sun and Sea package gives couples one experienced planning team that understands Northeast Florida beaches, local venues and the logistics of moving from ceremony to celebration. Depending on the package, Sun and Sea may coordinate:

• Location selection and permitting
• Ceremony design and décor
• Vendor communication
• Officiant services
• Professional photography
• Fresh florals
• Reception setup
• Food, cake and beverage service
• Timeline and wedding-day coordination

That coordination is especially valuable for couples planning from outside Florida.
