Sugar Beach Elopement - requires a $75 non refundable deposit for advance bookings and payment in full for bookings less than 7 days from the event date.
A $15 additional fee will be added for events in Okaloosa and Walton counties. A vendor permit and special insurance is required by these counties for all events that take place on the beach. An additional location permit is required for all events in Walton County that take place on beach public access points. On February 17th, the BCC passed Resolution 2017-6 which set the fees for special events. The permit fee for an elopement is $50.00 plus county service charge for less than 10 people. You will not need this permit if you have permission to have the event where you are staying. Permits are not required in Panama City Beach (Bay County). More info can be found at "Locations for Beach Weddings" page.
The Sugar Beach Elopement is perfect for couples that would like a beach wedding, and do not have a preference for a time or beach location for the event to take place. Florida Nuptials will assign the time and location, and will allow up to 8 people total including the Bride and Groom. Any events with more than 8 people need to be booked through the Basic Plan, which will also allow a preferred time and location that we will travel to within our range. An invoice for the Basic Plan rate difference will be issued after the event if there are 9 or more people, and the marriage license will not be released for filing until the difference is paid.
