We hosted a Welcome to the Wedding Cocktail party at the LMC! This place was PERFECT in every way! The onsite coordinator was so helpful and made the planning process a snap! We love the thought that went into every detail of this venue and know this ecofriendly habit for Turtles and their Human Friends is a special place for sure! Perfect weather and this unique environment was the quintessential, tropical cozy spot we wanted it to be. The Full Moon and breeze were a bonus! Thanks again LMC!

Loggerhead’s new facility and event center is gorgeous. Our guests really enjoyed the rooftop deck with an ocean view for cocktail hour. While I love their no single use plastic rule, it was more difficult to accommodate. There is almost always plenty of parking. If you are looking for a beach style wedding this is a good fit.

Beautiful venue but the wedding coordinator is extremely unprofessional. The bridge was opened and traffic was backed up . She proceeded to stand at the door and shame every single one of my guests for being late . When my husband and I walked in she told us everyone’s waiting on us upstairs and we’re extremely late ( event started 5:30 it was 5:35) . My husbands mother had a medical emergency and couldn’t come to the rehearsal or wedding last minute and we had just found out before leaving for the dinner . While she couldn’t have known that it wasn’t her place to say anything to begin with. We decided to have the caterer leave at 9:30 even though we had the space rented till 11 . Tonya started shooing everyone out the door at 9:26(extremely humiliating for myself as a bride and made my guests feel extremely uncomfortable) . The marinelife space is beautiful and it’s a shame that Tonya had to be so rude throughout the entire night .

Loggerhead was our dream venue with it having all of the jupiter local appeal. Tonya and her assistants were awesome to work with and were able to accommodate me whenever i had questions or needed to have any vendor walk through the space with me. Mike and I were so happy to getting married at such an incredible venue and all of our guests loved being able to look at all of the turtles being rehabilitated

The Loggerhead Marinelife Center (LMC) was the perfect venue for our surprise wedding, and it is a perfect venue for anyone who loves the beach, the ocean, and the turtles who call LMC their home. LMC is located just steps away from Juno Beach where its primary purpose is the rehabilitation of turtles and ocean preservation. This fantastic center also has newly built event spaces which are perfect for different events, but it was particularly perfect for our surprise wedding.Tonya Pellegrini and all of the staff at LMC worked so hard to make sure our day was perfectly executed so that our guests, who thought they were attending an engagement party, actually attended our wedding ceremony and reception. We used both the Sky Deck and the event room, which both comfortably held over 160 guests. We were able to enjoy Florida's December weather out on the Sky Deck for the cocktail hour/ceremony and then use the event space on the first floor for the reception and for more cocktails, food, and dancing. The Sky Deck has a beautiful view which overlooks Juno Beach and the ocean, and the first-floor event space was perfect for our food stations, DJ, dancefloor, and plenty of seating. The first-floor event space has sliding glass doors which also allow the space to open up to the outside and overlook the turtles and other sea life, which makes the already large space, even larger. Tonya at LMC was extremely flexible and helpful in allowing us to do multiple site visits with our vendors and making herself available to help in any way. She and LMC worked with each of our vendors closely so that when the day came, everything was already taken care of and ready to go. I would highly recommend this venue as there are multiple sites on the LMC property that can host different events, and your guests really enjoy being at LMC as it really is a special place which is devoted to a special purpose.

I grew up in Jupiter, LHMC was a staple of my childhood. When I heard they had a new event space that would be opening around the months leading up to my wedding I jumped on the opportunity to have my reception there. I grew up loving and respecting the turtles and the ocean and this just felt right. Sadly they were unable to have turtles at the time of my wedding which was disappointing. We had cocktail hour on their rooftop deck and the reception right downstairs. Cocktail hour was beautiful! We hired a saxophonist which really set the mood, the breeze up there and the ocean view was spectacular. It’s completely under cover as well. We were able to transform the event space where we had the reception into a beautiful room perfect for a party which was hard to imagine when we first went to see the space.Be advised, this is an ala carte option. Luckily the cost of the venue counts as a donation to the turtles and that’s pretty awesome. We had to hire out every last detail. LHMC provides the event space and 60” round tables which they will not allow you to put 10 chairs at. This limits you to tables of 8 or less people unless you rent larger tables. We had 17 tables plus the sweet heart table and we only used 2/3 of the space. It was the perfect amount of space and the room set up was perfect for mingling and interacting with all of our guests. You will need to hire a wedding planner!! DO NOT try to have a wedding here without one. You will want to have the room draped as it adds much needed dimension to the room which has fairly low ceilings. You will have to buy additional insurance for the event space. Mine cost around $150-175.The event coordinator, my planner and my photographer worked great together and did everything they could to ensure that my husband and I had everything that we needed including photographs on the beach and around the tanks at golden hour when the sunset was just right. LHMC has a team of people working together to try to make your wedding day seamless and as long as you have a great caterer, DJ, photographer and planner you will not be disappointed.
