Dean steinbrenner(bride)1 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-04-2021 Me and my now wife had planned to get married in October 2020 at the beach house. We live in illinois as well as our family, extended family and friends.When covid hit we weren't sure what the situation would be especially with the wedding date coming closer and covid getting worse by the day. Restaurant closings and capacity limits being put in place all over the country. We noticed it was not possible to have the wedding due to lockdown.Having people in our family with health issues and for the well being of everyone here and there We rescheduled for April of 2021, hoping the pandemic would be over by then. As the months passed we realized this was way bigger and longer lasting than anyone expected. With myself and my wife both being out of work and falling behind on everything we decided this florida wedding was not possible. Not possible for us and not possible for 75% of our guests. It was not a good idea to risk the health of any of our guests. We decided to cancel the wedding at the beach house. Being in a pandemic we understand it is hard for everyone businesses and patrons. We asked for a refund of our deposit and they denied 100% of our refund. This is not a place that is begging for business and we are 2 middle class people that are just trying to make it through this pandemic. This date was also filled after we cancelled so the beach house did not lose any money by us canceling our wedding! Unbelievable!!!!

We were able to send boxes directly to Shawn and knew it was in great care! Overall, the event went waaaayyyy better than I thought it would. Our families are STILL talking about it. Very intimate with our small guest count yet, let them tell it, it was a HUGE block party! I guess what I'm trying to say is, you won't go wrong with working with great people like this team!

The Beach House had a back up plan and I didn't have to worry about any of the details. We were very lucky that the weather cleared right on time, and our ceremony was beautiful!

The set-up of the sunset deck was beautiful, and the view was incredible. The food was amazing...the appetizers are still talked about when I get together with my family!The best thing about the Beach House was the responsiveness of the staff every step of the way. E-mails and phone calls were responded to promptly and they were very accommodating. When the pandemic hit, they worked with me to postpone my wedding, and I knew that no matter what happened, they would be supportive and continue to make my wedding everything I had always dreamed of.

David Pugliese(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-04-2018 To say the Beach House is a big part of my life is true. Vacationing on Longboat Key through the nineties till now, Beach House was a staple for family nights out. Now in 2018, it has come full circle. I chose Beach House to be my wedding venue and it was the best decision I ever made. A naturally nervous person, I was the most calm I have ever been on 4/14/2018 and I have to thank the amazing crew at the restaurant for making our day so magical and amazing. Our guests cannot stop talking about the food. My father-in-law, a self proclaimed grouper aficionado was eating the grouper leftovers for breakfast the next morning. To serve 80+ people food is one feat but for all the food to be delicious is another superpower. Our guests, from the frozen north, were all smiles with the gorgeous deck and sand (we had perfect weather) that leads to an incredible view and enjoyed their frozen drinks and danced the night away. I had one cousin tell me it felt like the ultimate John Hughes movie which to me is a huge compliment. Shawn, Beach House's coordinator, is my Disney Fairy Godmother. When I arrived before the ceremony everything was done. Even the last minute things I arrived early to finish were complete. I had no doubts to begin with and seeing my day come together I couldn't wait to let the carnival begin. I truly cannot say enough good things about our venue (all the good words in the dictionary) and would recommend to anyone anytime. I loved my wedding and a HUGE part of that is because Beach House literally did everything for us to enjoy and I can say with a soaring heart I actually enjoyed my wedding.

Erica VanZile(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-02-2018 Choose The Beach House Restaurant! You will not be disappointed :) I originally had planned and paid for my wedding in Puerto Rico, but after the hurricane disaster, I was forced to change everything. I had about 5 months to re-plan by my wedding at that point and was apprehensive about whether that would be enough time to get it all done. We knew we wanted a sunset wedding and my sister-in-law helped me research venues to make this happen. Once she found out about the Beach House Restaurant, she was so excited and shared the information with me immediately. We were stunned by the proximity to the ocean, the affordability, and the menu that was listed. Her and my mother-in-law contacted Shawn at the venue and relayed the information to me. I really liked what Shawn had to offer and the responsiveness she provided me with. I had emailed and researched many venues by this point, all of which took at least a week to get back to me... but not Shawn. I was very impressed with this, especially with my limited time-frame on planning. And she kept this up through my wedding day! She was very energetic and respectful, answered every question I had, and did a wonderful job of keeping it all straight (even when I couldn't remember some details). Shawn really made me feel like the center of attention and that I was the only bride in her mind. I could tell she really cared about making sure that my vision was her vision and that it was her top priority to make it come to life. All of my guests raved about the food we chose and some have even started planning a trip back to Anna Marie Island with plans to visit The Beach House. The sunset from the pavilion where we ate and danced was breathtaking and the white sandy beach was gorgeous. I loved having a fenced-in sandy dance floor for us all to kick off our shoes and dance the night away. I had so many compliments on our choice and I'm so happy that the wedding plans worked out the way they did. The catering staff was very attentive with food and drinks, as well.

It's just enough room for a couple of people so if you have a very large party you may want to get ready elsewhere. The food and service were excellent and all of our guests had an awesome time. I would highly recommend this spot!! Reviewed on 07-03-2018
Ashley Osdras(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 20-10-2017 The Beach House Restaurant and Shawn Rhoton made our dream come true with our wedding. From day one when we were looking at Venues on Anna Maria Island we had a staff member take time to show us and explain that they will be remodeling. At first, I was so upset because they could only fit 50 people at their venue but then learning about the remodel which fits up to 100 we knew we had to pick The Beach House. The remodel looks amazing and made our wedding day even more special. The staff including the cooks, bartenders, wedding coordinator, waitresses went above and beyond the whole week to make us feel special (we stayed on the island). One bartender, Adam decided to work on the day of the wedding because we begged him. Everyone just treated us like family. We also planned this wedding from Michigan which I was very worried about. The coordinator, Shawn Rhoton made it very easy and was so helpful. She emailed me back and forth for a year and a half and was amazing the whole time. She always made time for me if I was in Florida and wanted to meet or if my mom wanted to meet with her. She helped choose all the vendors who all did a wonderful job. Shawn took a lot of the stress off of me before and during the wedding. She even took pictures during the wedding and sent to me after. I couldn't have planned this wedding without her. If you are thinking about having a wedding on Anna Maria Island and want to have your dream wedding for sure choose The Beach House. They are professional and care about each and every one of their weddings. Thank you again!! Love, Mr. and Mrs. Osdras 10/20/2017 Reviewed on 22-11-2017

Kayla Millerick(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 27-12-2018 My dream was to have a waterfront wedding. The Island of Anna Maria has so much to offer. The Beach House Waterfront Restaurant is situated right on the Gulf Of Mexico and has the best views of the Gulf. Choosing them to host our Wedding was the best decision we ever could of made. They exceeded all expectations. Our experience started off with meeting their even coordinator, Shawn. She knows her stuff! Shawn was able to keep the planning process stress free. She was always available for questions (or support for a stressed bride). Shawn was there the day of our wedding and executed our vision perfectly. As the Bride, I did not have to worry about a thing which gave me time to hang out, relax, and get ready with my Bridesmaids. October 8th, 2017, the day of our Wedding. Everything was set up perfectly. The staff greeted the wedding party as well as guests with professionalism. We had a beautiful ceremony on the beach right beside the restaurant, which they set up for us. The cocktail hour went perfectly. The Hors d'oeuvre and drinks were delicious. My guest could not say enough positive things about the food during the weeding. We chose to add bacon wrapped scallops as one of our hors d'oeuvre choices. I highly recommend them! The servers were very attentive and did not leave one guest with an empty drink or request. Shawn brought the groom and I plates of hors d'oeuvre and drinks to the bridal suite while we were waiting to be announced. This was such a special touch and something my husband and I really appreciated. We had the reception, dancing, toasts, dinner, cake cutting, and of course more dancing. We decided on their buffet option for dinner. It included prime rib, local fresh fish, and a chicken dish with sides and salad. The buffet was well kept and there was plenty of food for all of our guest. The Beach House Waterfront Restaurant is the best option on Anna Maria Island for a wedding. They offer many options and services to choose from for the bride and groom. We were extremely pleased with our wedding at the Beach House and recommend it to any couples planning a beach wedding.

We booked the Beach House for our wedding on 09/22/2017. From the beginning, Shawn was personable, friendly and easy to work with. Although our wedding wasn't considered a \"destination\" wedding, we live about 2 hours away from Anna Maria, so much of our planning was done via email and phone. Shawn was always willing to go the extra mile without hesitation. We were confident that no matter what we threw her way, that she would find a solution, and I can honestly say that I don't think our day would have been nearly as special without her expertise! She helped calm my wedding day nerves, and assisted in the overall \"flow\" of the day to make sure things went as smooth as possible. And not only that, the STAFF! Our guests continually rave about how professional the staff was, and how quickly they worked. Plus, the food is to die for! So many of our guests complimented the food, and said how it was the best \"wedding\" food they had ever had & WE AGREE! We have been to the Beach House many times before, and have never been disappointed in our meals. Our wedding day food was no different, and we couldn't have been happier with how the day turned out. I could speak volumes about Shawn, the Beach House staff, and the food - just know that if you come here for dinner, or you book a special event, you will NOT be let down.

She truly does go above and beyond and we cannot thank her enough. My husband and I live in upstate NY and happened to be traveling to Anna Maria Island shortly after we got engaged. I emailed a few venues to set up meetings while we were there. Shawn responded right away and sent us a ton of information. Right from the beginning she was so friendly! The day we met with her she was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable and really helped us imagine what our dream wedding could be like at the Beach House. She went through the whole vendor list with us and gave us tips, advice, etc. It was important to us to be right on the beach and have gorgeous views, have a nice, but laid back atmosphere , and have something affordable. When we left the meeting, we knew the Beach House was the place for us! Throughout the year of planning, Shawn was very helpful and very prompt at answering my many emails, from giving me advice on possible centerpieces to giving me her opinion on a vendor that wasn't on the list. Shawn and her staff decorated the tables with centerpieces we had dropped off at the rehearsal. Everything looked fantastic, better than I could have imagined! She even had a card box we could use since we forgot one. Shawn was so great the day of the wedding, she was everywhere we needed her to be. After our pictures, she got us some appetizers and a couple beers and set us up with a spot inside to relax and cool down for a bit as husband and wife, before we went back out to get announced and start celebrating with our guests. We were so appreciative. It's the little things like that that make your day so special. The Beach House staff was so wonderful and very attentive to everyone. The food was delicious and our guests raved about the quality. Now, months later, everyone is still talking about how perfect the day was, and what an awesome venue the Beach House is. We would highly recommend it to anyone considering a beach wedding. You get a beautiful view, amazing food, impeccable service, and a day that everyone will be talking about for years to come.

Our wedding day was so special and I'd credit a lot of that to Shawn Rhoton. She is the \"wedding whisperer\" of the Beach House. She is A++ at helping every couple with the details for their special day, even if you are in another part of the country or state! She is VERY detail oriented. She worked with us on tweaking their menu to fit our Caribbean food theme. She also gave us an extensive list of vendors to help with everything from cake and hotel accommodations, to hair stylists, DJ's and island activities for out of town guests. The venue is perfect for 50-60 guests. It's a great pavilion on the beach and the lighting for sunset was perfect. We got so many compliments from our guests about the food, the venue, the location and how much fun they had. All I can say, is it was the \"wedding whisperer\". She envisioned everything I emailed her, told her on the phone, etc. I met with her the afternoon before the wedding to drop off my centerpieces, guest registry, lanterns and signs, etc. She had EVERYTHING done and in the PERFECT spot on our day. Better than I imagined!! When I arrived it was perfection!! There are 2 gorgeous palm trees sticking up out of the sand by the pavilion. You don't need an arbor at all. The ocean behind these palms is an amazing backdrop. Mother Nature is here at the Beach House. If you are looking for a beach location for a wedding and you want great food, fun and romantic atmosphere in one and a great picture spot (because ladies we know it's about the pictures) and it doesn't break your piggy bank this is it!!

She was genuinely excited about the reception and her job. We used a different company that we had previously hired to perform the ceremony about 300 ft away from the pavilion. We walked right over after the ceremony and had a delicious dinner and drinks. The server was slow and not attentive to our needs, but everything else was so perfect we really did not care at that point. I had requested the champagne toast after everyone finished ordering dinner, and he told me it was not time yet. Since I am the bride and paying the bill, I would think I'd have some say in the timeline. The server tip (20%)is automatically figured into the bill, so that can cause this type of effect.

We set up an alcohol cap that was never met (awesome)... but I did hear from guests that our server was hard to find so many of them would go inside to the bar to get a drink which meant they paid for it themselves instead of adding the drink to our tab. Definitely recommend only doing beer and wine option with a cap. If your guests want a special drink, let them pay for it - you are offering a free beer/wine option!\r\rWe were a destination wedding couple and never saw the venue until we went the day before for our ceremony rehearsal and we were so pleased! I was a pretty low key bride and didn't do many 'extras' in terms of decorating etc, but the little we did have was fabulous - We only did centerpieces, sign-in area, table names w/stories, and an awesome drape thing for the arbor. I had looked at renting drapes for the pavilion but the cost is crazy (no need - the area is beautiful without the linens). We used ceremony chairs and rented chairs that matched (from Sandbar restaurant) in the pavilion.

Not to mention that the BeachHouse is located right on the water and the view was so beautiful.\r\rWe cannot begin to brag enough about how great Shawn, the special events coordinator was. Being from Chicago, we planned our wedding blindly from miles away and Shawn was there to help us every step of the way. She was a God send. She recommended preferred vendors and was there to coordinate, organize and greet them. We look forward to traveling back for our future anniversaries. We would recommend the BeachHouse for any type of event.\r \rThank you BeachHouse and staff for all of your help and for making the best day of our lives so special.\r Reviewed on 22-03-2015
Sofia Maher(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 29-05-2014 Customer Service is EVERYTHING! \r\rI sent an email of inquiry to the Event Coordinator, Mrs. Shawn Rhoton, and within two hours, she responded back! I am sure I sent over 10 venue inquries that same day but no other potential venue sites got back to me with such quick AND excited responses. Ms. Shawn was concise and very helpful from the very beginning. She truly was down to earth and happy go lucky. Truly, Ms. Shawn MADE it possible to have the wedding of my dreams at the Beachhouse Resturant. She is an absolute joy to work with, as well as her staff!! \r\rUpon visiting the site, I was not 100% sold and nothing \"wowed\" me at first view, HOWEVER, upon meeting Ms. Shawn in person and talking with her, she helped me envision how my future husband and my wedding could be like. She WON my heart by her excitement, her true care of my dream wedding, and her desire to make it all possible. \r\rThe site itself is beautifully set right upon the beach which extends outward for miles. The entire environment was relayed with Ms Shawn and she would pop in ideas of what has worked in the past and made it possible. She and her staff were wonderful to work with in the set up the day of the event. Ms. Shawn and her team went ABOVE and BEYOND in every aspect! \r\rThe day of the wedding was BEYOND perfect and more wonderful than I could have ever imagined. The staff was WONDERFUL and SO KIND to my family, my wedding party and myself. Any little thing that I could have thought of was addressed and then some. \r\rThe venue also provided the food and it was SPECTACULAR and OUT OF THIS WORLD! My parents and I ate there at the Restaurant about 4 times before the actual wedding. The Restaurant itself never misses a beat. EXCELLENT FOOD! The day of the wedding, the food was simply divine and of great variety. There was the obvious seafood of shrimp and grouper, as well as prime rib and chicken for those that weren't seafood lovers. I am not one for wedding meals (I think most of the time they are either overdown or undercooked. Mass meals are harder to make.) But the food was simply exquisite. My husband and I didn't get to eat much the day of our wedding, but the staff boxed up our meals and then some for us, cake included! Everything was planned and taken care of down to the T! \r\rI could not have asked for a wonderful site coordinator who knew how to make a bride feel at home and at complete ease. \r\rI would recommend this venue a thousand times over and over again!

Rikki Hartin(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 28-03-2014 Event coordinator Shawn Rhoton, and all the staff at the Beach house Restaurant made our beach wedding absolutely wonderful! Not only did they carry out exactly what we wanted for the ceremony, we even dropped off boxes of decorations for the reception the morning of the wedding (and included small notes with each decoration) and they designed it better than we could have ever imagined! Shawn took care of EVERYTHING and consulted with us with any questions, not that there were many because she is awesome!!! And the overall prices were not bad compared to other venues on AMI that were also directly on those gorgeous beaches! Plus the remodel of the inside restaurant look phenomenal! This was the best place to host our wedding! Reviewed on 02-05-2014
Allison Brewer(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 28-09-2013 This was my second wedding and I wanted everything low stress, low key and layed back yet beautiful. Shawn answered every question quickly and nothing was too much to ask. Any thing I needed she was there. The food was amazing and everyone had a great time and appreciated how every detail was observed. Reviewed on 17-10-2013
Gina Skaronea(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-08-2013 My husband and I got married on Friday August 30 2013 and we canât say enough things about The Beachhouse. When we got engaged in May of 2012, we both agreed that we wanted a beach wedding that allowed us to have a sunset ceremony. From the time we arrived at the Beach House to preview it, we fell in love and immediately booked it. Throughout the months of planning, Shawn, the wedding coordinator was absoutely amazing. She stayed on top of everything, was quick to respond to e-mails, and always offered to help as much as she could. She even set up our center pieces and name plates on our tables for us. The night of the wedding, everything went even better than we could of imagined. The food was great, the set up was perfect and the staff was very attentive with anything that we requested. We can honestly say that everything at our wedding exceeded our expectations. If you are looking for a romantic beach wedding, we highly recommend The Beachhouse Restaurant. Reviewed on 17-09-2013
Corina Jennings(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 13-07-2013 My husband and I had a sunset wedding and reception here on July 13, 2013. From the time we called to ask about information until after our wedding was through, Shawn and Jamie were very accommodating and informational with all of our questions and ideas. Since we had an evening wedding we were able to do a heavy appetizer instead of a full meal which was just the right amount of food and everyone is still going on about how delicious it tasted. Since we were planning our wedding a few states away from where we live you think it would be complicated to get everything together. This was not the case but we couldn't have done it without Shawn. The day of the wedding she had everything organized just the way we planned and made sure everything ran smoothly so that I didn't have to worry about anything but walking down the aisle. We couldn't have chosen a better or more beautiful place to have our wedding. Reviewed on 05-09-2013
Mindy Pearson(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 02-06-2013 My husband Tom and I had a Brunch Wedding and Reception at the Beachhouse Restaurant on Sunday, June 2, 2013. Shawn Rhoton and the chefs at the BeachHouse could not have been more accomodating to us and our guests. The food and service were superb and we felt like such VIP's. Shawn, their wedding planner, is definitely an asset as she gave outstanding recommendations and helped make our day so very perfect. She is a delight to work with and without her guidance we would have been lost. I have ZERO complaints and will be coming back to the BeachHouse for years to come. Do not hesitate to have your beach wedding here. \r\rMindy Fountain\rSarasota, Florida Reviewed on 25-08-2013
Morgan VanCola(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-05-2013 We loved having our wedding and reception at the BeachHouse Restaurant! Both Jamie and Shawn were so helpful from the small details up to our day and then the big details during our day! They answered every questioned we had and made the whole process seamless. They assisted with the setup of our center pieces, archway, and sign in table details. You could tell they genuinely cared about our day and anything we needed they were there to help! We sincerely appreciate everything they did for our special day and especially the staff who served us! The food was delicious and our guests really loved the grouper! Everyone loved the view and we lucked out with perfect weather! We only plan on getting married once, but if we had to do it again we wouldn't have changed anything!\r\rThanks again,\r\rChad and Morgan Reviewed on 22-08-2013
Jennifer Atkins(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-07-2013 The BeachHouse was perfect for our intimate destination wedding. Shawn is awesome to work with and will set you at ease about any of your concerns.\r\rMake sure to visit the restaurant during a wedding so that you can see some of your wedding options. Some of the photos are hard to read, especially with the 2 different pavilions for weddings. \r\rThe recommended vendor list is the only thing I can criticize at all. I did not find the photography vendor list to be the caliber of anything I was hoping for. I would recommend researching on your own rather than just trusting the photographer list. I would also echo that with the accommodation list; visit the island and see the options for yourself, especially if you are hoping to do getting ready or first look photos.\r\rI had guests telling me that the stuffed tilapia entree choice was one of the top 10 meals they had ever had.

The service was good, the food was great, and the atmosphere and view were even better. Our only complaint is that the parking isn't great, but it's like that everywhere on Anna Maria Island.

Julia Scott(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 28-10-2012 The Beachhouse did an amazing job for our wedding. We chose the venue because it was where we had one of our first dates. Their prices are extremely reasonable for what they offer. What do they offer? A beautiful location, fantastic food, helpful staff---and I cannot praise their wedding coordinator, Shawn, enough! Want someone who treats you like you are their only wedding party? Can read your mind on the day of the wedding and think of things you never thought of? Can miraculously and without a sweat pull out a Plan B if, say, a hurricane called Sandy slides by? Then the Beachhouse is your place and Shawn is your coordinator. They made our night PERFECT!
