First Look Location Help

I need help!

We are staying in Clearwater Beach and getting married in Dunedin on Honeymoon Island.  We are looking for a good place to do our First Look close to either location or somewhere in between.  But we are looking for a place that is NOT on the beach.  Our wedding is on the beach, so we want to do something different.  I am from Illinois.  Can anyone please please help with suggestions?!

not sure exactly what kind of atmosphere you want... there is downtown Clearwater which has a couple blocks of business type building, vintage library and court house feel, brick roads,and also rail road  tracks. if you want a park/green feel there is coachman park (more of green than park with trees, this park is also on the water but not beach and on the way to duendin). Also on the water is edgewater park in clearwater ont he way....downtown Dunedin is also vintage-y, brick roads and really cute, they also have a little park area in the center of downtown Dunedin (main street). there is also a marina near here.

Hi I have alot of ideas......I am very familar with the area. Do you have your photographer? What do you think of the Gazabo....or downtown near the intersection or Railroad Tracks.

My photographer was awesome....lastingimpressions@live.con

Thanks for the suggestions!

We do have our photographer already, but they are from Fort Myers and not as familiar with Dunedin / Clearwater area.

We want somewhere that would be sort of private for our first look.  So although I love brick paved roads and old buildings, we don't necessarily want to be somewhere with lots of onlookers.  Perhaps a tree-lined park or bridge somewhere?  But obviously not too deep into a park that we would need to walk too far (since I will be in a wedding dress and all).

Where is the gazebo you mentioned?  That sounds like something that might work.

I like railroad tracks for engagement pics, but not so sure about for wedding pics.
