Private Venue Rentals on Siesta Key, Florida
Most couples hosting Siesta Key weddings rent houses or condos so that they can enjoy privacy during their stay on the island. As most house and condo rentals on Siesta Key are located right on the beach overlooking the Gulf of Mexico, many couples also host their Siesta Key weddings right on the property. After a ceremony outside on the beach, couples and guests can then head back to the rental for an intimate reception or cocktail hour.

On top of photographing in more secluded beach areas, Jennifer Angeloro Photography also employs a Photoshop expert to edit out strangers who might pop up in your Siesta Key wedding photographs.
