Having our wedding reception at Casa Ybel was amazingly easy, thanks to their on-site wedding coordinator, Jennifer Dube. Her knowledge of Sanibel's advantages and restrictions, (having to do with nature and noise, for the most part), made our big night everything we wanted it to be. From the moment we entered our candlelit reception room to the last dance, we were treated with utmost respect and kind courtesy. Jennifer and the Casa Ybel staff know that planning a destination wedding can really be trying on one's patience. They are there to guide you throughout the process: from recommending vendors to choosing the food, everything you need is right there.

Casa Ybel was built with weddings in mind, and that philosophy is evident to this day. It was wonderful to have the outdoor patio for a cocktail reception, then move upstairs for the served dinner for 65. The food was incredible, the beach is steps away and Casa Ybel itself is a gorgeous resort at which you and your guests can stay, (many of ours did). The level of class we experienced was top-notch. We only wish we could do it all over again!
