Give you a venue on the waterfront with a breathtaking view so you can celebrate with all the people that are the most important to you.


Catherine + Derrick, you’re getting married with your closest family and friends and considering Palafox Wharf for your venue in 2023 fall season. You shared some insights about your ideal venue.  Your wedding is our priority.  Thank you for completing the Questionnaire and telling us what is most important to you.  To summarize, the biggest, most important thing you want from your overall wedding experience and to make that happen, you need a venue to:

I understand that a few things are causing you concern at the moment. I pulled clues from the questionnaire you completed. Derrick has not yet been impressed with the Venues he has seen and has not discovered THE venue.  

You want your guests visiting, munching on a bite of tasty food, sipping a cocktail, chatting with friends and family enjoying each other and creating lifelong memories of your special day.  And, absolutely a lot of fun dancing (think singing along to the tunes)!!  A most is to have a great scenic backdrop for your memorable photography.

While your wedding day is very much “your day”—celebrating the commitment that you and your partner are making to one another—it’s also about two families becoming one. Many couples take this opportunity to recognize their families for everything they have done. After all, these are the people who have loved you, supported you, and made you the people that you are today.

“Palafox Wharf was the perfect choice for my wedding reception! Beautiful outdoor & indoor space, Sandy was always quick to respond, sent lots of helpful emails & was able to accommodate me when I had to postpone my wedding. Their list of preferred vendors was also a great help to me as a bride planning her wedding from another state and they all turned out to be fantastic."

- Chelsea R.

We make a conscious effort to be more, to do more, and to give more. While it may seem as though our sole purpose is to provide a great relaxed friendly wedding venue for weddings and events, we strive for something higher. Palafox Wharf also serves the greater purpose of being a home away from home for everyone that walks through our doors. It’s a special place, where friends and family can come together and create lifelong memories rooted in joy and happiness.

Carrie attended a strolling (cocktail fashion) at Palafox Wharf and had so much fun & loved the idea of a strolling reception that she booked her Wedding Day at the Venue. She originally was thinking 200 but it turned out to be 175 guests. Carrie says:  "We absolutely loved getting married at Palafox Wharf!  They were wonderful to work with!  Sandy kept me on track and went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect.  90% of our guests and bridal party travelled in for our big day, and they still rave about the venue!"

Amy says, "I initially booked Palafox Wharf, I chose them because of easy things to recognize, such as location. What is better than downtown Pensacola, right on the water, and in walking distance to the bars? My guests raved about the location because everyone flew into town for the wedding and did not need a car the entire weekend. Also, their property is simply gorgeous. It sits on the water and the sunset at the perfect time in the evenings where it sits behind a building so guests don't sweat and the lighting is perfect outdoors.  During the planning process, Sandy went above and beyond to make it as easy as possible. She provided me with a list of preferred vendors. This was probably my favorite thing they provided, because it made choosing vendors extremely quick. Also, because they were work together so frequently, there was never any miscommunication about my wedding. Everything was very familiar and comfortable for all of my vendors, making it easy for me to plan a destination wedding."
