WaterVue at Brooks Street

Yes, you may certainly have your ceremony and reception at WaterVue. There is a gorgeous waterfront arbor allowing your guests to witness the exchange of vows outdoors. There is also a large deck overlooking the Santa Rosa Sound where the ceremony can take place. Following the outdoor ceremony simply move indoors for the reception. There are also other indoor options that can be discussed. The options are truly endless. Another option is to enjoy a barefoot wedding on the white, sandy beaches of Okaloosa Island, just a short distance from WaterVue, where the reception will follow. Should the couple encounter inclement weather on their special day, WaterVue is a great back-up plan as we can host both the ceremony and the reception inside at a moment’s notice. We pride ourselves on catering to the couple’s special day in all circumstances … rain or shine.

Yes. At WaterVue, your satisfaction is our number one priority, and you can choose to have our professional team handle all the details, providing impeccable service (catering, music, photography, florist, etc.) so that you may relax and enjoy the event. However, for those wanting a more affordable option, we allow our clients the “facility only” option, where you handle your own catering, bartending, music, photography, etc. We have a complete listing of preferred vendors for your convenience. However, you are free to choose your own suppliers. WaterVue will need a listing of all vendors who will have access to the facility at least 30-days prior to the event (caterer, florist, event planner, DJ, bartenders, musicians, cake maker, officiant, etc). In addition, the caterer will need to provide a copy of his/her license and insurance/bond to WaterVue at least 30-days prior to event. Note: WaterVue does not supply any plates, flatware, stemware, etc. for the event, so please ensure you have that arranged with your caterer. The caterer will need to sign a separate contract with WaterVue.

If you have already had a tour and discussed your details, you will receive an email with complete information on how to proceed. If you still need to visit our site, please set up an appointment for a tour. Most contracts can be arranged through the mail! A non-refundable security deposit of 50% of the cost of the facility rental is required to secure your date. This deposit will be applied toward the balance due. Balance in full is due six-months (for weddings) and three-months (other events) prior to the event. You can always check to see the availability of dates on our website.
