This hotel is beautiful and so clean. I went to see them about having my wedding reception there. The staff was very professional and helpful.

We knew we wanted to have our reception at the Sawgrass Marriott as soon as we walked into the lobby and saw the Arbor Ballroom. The Arbor Ballroom is such a unique wedding space, it is a Ballroom all on it's own with a full wraparound porch on a small marsh. What is included in the wedding package was much more than any of the other 8 venues we looked at and affordable. Some things it included was a bridal suite the day of, a room for the night of, an on site Event Manager, a champagne toast, a holding room for the wedding party before the reception, the cake and three votive candles per table.

The service was wonderful, our Event Manager, Sala Prain was amazing! I felt like I was planning our wedding with an old friend from the day I met her. All of the food was amazing and the food tasting was much more than we could have expected, the chef was at our reception serving at one of our stations. All of the staff working our reception were so polite, accommodating and on their A game. The valet was awesome, we got married on a very rainy day and one of the valet guys stopped me to pick some dirt out of my dress and Sala walked umbrellas out to all guests at the ballroom.
The customer service was exceptional and it was so nice having all of our guests in one location. One of the best parts was being able to walk over to the onsite bar, Alice & Pete's after the reception to keep the party going.

From the moment we toured the resort with Robin Jones, we knew our wedding reception would be seamless and our guests would be in awe. We chose to have our reception in the Arbor Ballroom, where our 120 guests could enjoy an outdoor cocktail hour while overlooking a small lagoon. The majority of our guests traveled from well outside of the Jacksonville area and were amazed at the resort's amenities. This is the perfect location for every member of the family! Natalie was so much fun to work with throughout the entire planning process. Although the resort is large, the staff makes you and your guests feel like their top priority. The complimentary tasting and meeting with the chef completely exceeded our expectations. Our customized menu with action stations and buffet options completely WOW'd our guests. We highly recommend this location, especially if you have many out of town guests!
