Reception Locations Help in Destin and surrounding areas!

I am tryin to plan a beach wedding and reception in the Destin and surrounding areas, however, I have had a hard time finding a location that also has a backup location that still has the feel of being outside (i.e. trying to avoid the ballroom scene).  I've also had a hard time finding things on the internet that aren't terribly expensive like tents on the beach, etc.  Does anyone have any suggestions for places directly on the beach (or a deck) to have weddings and receptions that also have a good backup location? I am open to all types of places - hotels, houses, anything that will get me a beach weddings and reception atmosphere. Any help would be much appreciated!

    Hey DanaHitz,

    I searched all over the southeast for reception sites with a water location that were also within our budget. I would be happy to share the information I found with you. We ended up deciding on Pensacola, so I don't need any of the research any more. I sent you a private message...

    When we were looking in Destin (before we decided on Panama City Beach), we looked at the Hilton Sandestin and Watercolors.  Ultimately we decided that these were a bit out of our price range. 

    Good luck!

    Have you looked into either Bentley's on the Bay or Cabana Blue in Santa Rosa Beach? I feel like they will both fit exactly what you're looking for but it just depends which one fits your style. I loved them both from the start and booked Cabana Blue for my April 2012 wedding and reception!

    Try Solaris Yacht with Sunquest Cruises (Sandestin, FL).  I've been on a dinner cruise with them and they are awesome.

    If you are not opposed to Pensacola there are many homes there that have an open bottom that is perfect for the reception area whether it rains or not. I am actually a wedding coordinator and would love to help you locate a home if you would like.

    If anyone would be so kind to send me information on the Destin area I would really appreciate it. It is so hard being so far from it.
