Ever since I got engaged to my handsome D in February, wedding planning has been in the back of my mind. We haven't set a date yet, which gives me the opportunity to find inspiration for my indecisive self. When I've thought about our wedding, I've always envisioned getting hitched on the beach (barefoot, maybe?). So with this in mind, I've been thinking of locations in South Florida. I've made a list (not the shortest) but I can't shorten it until I have a date and I can see how much $$$ everything costs. These are my options, so far...
1. Pierre's Restaurant/Morada Bay Beach Cafe, Islamorada, Fl 
I love, love this place. It's absolutely gorgeous and of course, beauty comes with a hefty price tag. This is my ideal place but I'm realistic and I know it probably won't happen, but it doesn't hurt to ask!

2. Key Largo Grande Resort and Beach Club, Key Largo, Fl
I’ve never been to this place but I found it online and I’ve driven past it on US1. The pics from the website look beautiful – I really want to check this place out. http://www.keylargoresort.com/meetings_and_weddings/index.cfm
3. Red Fish GrillD’s mother got married here and it was absolutely stunning. The key to this place is to get married during the day and not at night…unless you can afford to close down the entire restaurant. Regardless, I think it’s pointless to get married on the beach at night - you can’t enjoy the view!
4. Deering Estate
This place is beautiful but it’s super, super pricey. The only exception is if my guest list is 75 peeps or less. That might be nearly impossible, but you never know.
5. Public parks – Cape Florida, Crandon Park, Miami Beach
All of these places are on the water and the views are amazing. The only problem is that these would be great ceremony locations but the reception would have to be held elsewhere.
So that's my list...I'll probably tweek it here and there but I hope it's one of these places! :)

WOW the key largo beach resort looks AMAZING!!!!
I say you have the wedding at any of the places.. and i don't think it's about money.. because you can make it work.. i think it's more about cutting cost on things that don't matter so much to you. It can happen :o)
I agree with Meghan. you have to both know where to draw the line and also be able to skimp on other things.
We've got flower arrangements and the decorating down (that's why you've got me). And hopefully the decorations and stuff I'll look out for you and once you give me ideas there's always dollar tree, no one has to know, there's no need to spend $10 on something that could cost you $1 and looks the same without sacrificing the quality!
btw. I WANT TO GET MARRIED.
