Reviews of Bay Preserve at Osprey
The most wonderful wedding location!
The best hidden gem in the Sarasota area!
Sam Valentin - the event coordinator - was so extremely helpful, responsive and flexible anytime we had any questions or concerns. The venue is really willing to work with you. I wanted to get in a little earlier in order to get ready on-site and they were able to accommodate. Also, one of my favorite aspects of the venue is that they only do one wedding a weekend, so you also automatically have your rehearsal time locked in for the day before. I think that is a huge plus compared to some of the other venues in the area.
They make sure to groom and maintain the property that very day so it is picture perfect shape for your day too!
Michael's on East is the exclusive caterer, and although a little on the pricier side, they are the best in town and I was thrilled to work with them. Plus, they know the space SO well!
My recommendation to anyone looking for a venue in this area - LOOK HERE! The space is truly magical and we could not have been happier!
