Welcome to our wedding website! We can't wait to celebrate with all of you in Boca!
The Gasparilla Inn, Boca Grande Florida
We are so excited to be able to celebrate with all of you in one of our favorite places! Please reach out to us directly if you have any remaining questions that this site does not answer. Looking forward to February!
Boca Grande is a small, quaint island with a limited number of options for accommodations. The small town charm is part of the reason we love the island and we hope you will too!
The Gasparilla Inn & Club is a classic “old Florida” resort. A Historic Hotel of America Landmark Inn serving guests since 1913, the resort offers 142 luxurious accommodations and a host of fun and appealing activities for families, couples, and groups that enjoy “Florida as it was meant to be.”
We have reserved a block of rooms at the Inn for our wedding, please call (877) 764-1420 to reserve a room or suite and ask for the “Wallendjack / Powell Wedding” block.
*Guests staying at the Gasparilla Inn & Club have access to tennis, golf, fitness, croquet and spa activities.
This charming waterfront property is nestled along the picturesque Boca Grande bayou and is surrounded by tropical beauty, with the island's tranquil white sand beaches just a short stroll away. It is a fisherman's paradise and an old Florida lover's favorite getaway.
We have reserved a small block of rooms at the Innlet for our wedding, please call 941.964.4600 to reserve in the “Wallendjack / Powell Wedding” block.
*Guests selecting this option will not have access to the Inn facilities. There is an onsite pool and it is across the street from a public beach access point.
Last we checked, there are a number of great options via AirBnb/VRBO for couples, small groups and families. We encourage all of our guests to reserve an AirBnB as soon as possible as February is the "season" in Boca Grande and we expect these options to be booked sooner rather than later.
*Guests selecting this option will not have access to the Inn facilities but there are public beach access points throughout the island.
Please plan to fly into one of the following airports and renting a car (we can help match up groups!)

The island is 7 miles long and 1 mile wide at its widest point. Cars are allowed on the island. There is a bike/golf cart path that goes the length of the island.
The vast majority of the shops/restaurants and all of our wedding activities are "in town" so staying near town will allow you to forego needing a car while on the island
