Stephanie and Charlie had the most beautiful Atlantic Beach Country Club wedding. This venue is truly a coastal dream, light, airy, and filled with soft, natural tones. Stephanie loved the colors so much that she used them as inspiration for her own palette. The neutral tans, whites, and light blues brought her coastal wedding vision to life perfectly.
WHY COUPLES LOVE A WEDDING AT ATLANTIC BEACH COUNTRY CLUB
Atlantic Beach Country Club is tucked into the cutest part of Atlantic Beach, and from the moment you arrive, it feels effortlessly upscale. With its clean, neutral palette, you can truly make the space your own. Stephanie and Charlie chose a soft coastal feel for their Atlantic Beach Country Club wedding, and it fit the venue perfectly.
One thing Stephanie loved most about Atlantic Beach Country Club was something simple but unforgettable, it smells amazing. It might seem like a small detail, but those little moments are what make the experience feel so special.
CEREMONY LOCATIONS FOR YOUR ATLANTIC BEACH COUNTRY CLUB WEDDING
Stephanie and Charlie were married at the beautiful St. Paul’s Catholic Church, which is less than 10 minutes from Atlantic Beach Country Club. The quick drive made everything easy for the couple, their wedding party, their vendors, and their guests.
If you’re considering a wedding at Atlantic Beach Country Club, the venue also offers gorgeous outdoor ceremony options. You can exchange vows with the golf course as your backdrop, surrounded by stunning palm trees and coastal, upscale homes in the distance. It perfectly complements the Florida ambiance and coastal elegance that couples love about Atlantic Beach Country Club.
RECEPTION SPACES AT ATLANTIC BEACH COUNTRY CLUB
The ballroom at Atlantic Beach Country Club has all the coastal vibes you fell in love with. It’s perfect for an intimate wedding, and Stephanie and Charlie’s guest count of about 80–100 fit beautifully—dance floor included.
There’s also a spacious outdoor area that Stephanie and Charlie used for cocktail hour. If you’re expecting a larger guest list, this space can easily transform into an additional dance floor or even accommodate your entire reception under the palm trees.
One thing I love about Atlantic Beach Country Club reception spaces is that they’re naturally beautiful, so you don’t need heavy décor to make an impact. Whether you’re keeping things neutral or going all-in with florals and details, make sure to schedule time for your photographer to document everything.
Since we were coming from the church, Stephanie and her amazing planners at Savvy Bride Co. built in time for me to capture all the reception details before guests arrived for cocktail hour, and before we started wedding party and couple portraits around the venue.
THE BEST PHOTO LOCATIONS FOR YOUR WEDDING AT ATLANTIC BEACH GOLF COURSE
The Entry of Atlantic Beach Country Club
The front of Atlantic Beach Country Club is just the cutest spot for photos. With its charming siding, colorful shutters, and strong coastal vibes, you truly can’t go wrong. If you’re taking pictures earlier in the day, this area offers easy shade and flattering light, but it’s also beautiful during golden hour.
Because it’s right outside the main entrance, it’s a convenient spot for wedding party photos—quick to access and efficient for your timeline. Just keep in mind that guests will enter through this area, so plan your picture schedule accordingly to avoid overlap.
The Bridge
On the way to the golf course, you’ll cross a small bridge that makes a lovely photo location. It’s perfect for wedding party portraits or a few romantic couple’s photos, adding a touch of charm as part of your Atlantic Beach Country Club wedding gallery.
The Golf Course
After photographing weddings at golf courses for nearly 20 years, one thing I’ve learned is that we always work around the golfers – those guys and gals don’t mess around! For your Atlantic Beach Golf Course wedding photos, there are two beautiful options: one spot at the front of the course and one in the back. Which one we use depends on where golfers are during portrait time, and luckily, both areas are stunning.
For Stephanie and Charlie’s wedding, we went to the back of the course, and I loved it. The light was perfect, it felt secluded, and we captured the most beautiful portraits.
Timing is everything on a golf course. If you’re getting married in June when it stays light past 8 PM, I highly recommend sneaking out after your reception has started for sunset portraits. Golden hour is truly ideal for Atlantic Beach Golf Course wedding photos.
For Stephanie and Charlie, whose wedding was in early November, we planned all their portraits during golden hour since sunset was around 5:30 PM, and it worked out beautifully.
STEPHANIE & CHARLIE’S PERFECT ATLANTIC BEACH COUNTRY CLUB
Not only was the weather absolutely perfect, but Stephanie and Charlie’s entire wedding day felt effortless and joyful from beginning to end. Every detail came together beautifully—the colors, the décor, the florals, all tying into their coastal vision. Their portraits were flawless and full of emotion, and the whole day photographed like a dream.
Their reception was equally unforgettable. The energy was high, the dance floor was packed, and guests were singing at the top of their lungs. There were even a few bride-and-groom lifts, a sure sign that everyone was having the best time. It was one of those weddings where you can genuinely feel how loved the couple is, and how excited everyone was to celebrate them.
