WEDDING VENUE: The Ritz Carlton

AREA HOTELS:



DESTINATION INFORMATION:

Situated along 13 miles of pristine, picturesque Atlantic coastline, Amelia Island is the southernmost of the Sea Islands, a chain of barrier islands along the eastern U.S. seaboard.

Located on Amelia Island, Fernandina Beach, Florida, was once a vibrant Victorian village by the sea. Amelia Island also owns the unique distinction of being the only U.S. city to have once been under the domain of eight different nations, and is still known as the Isle of 8 Flags.

Today, Amelia Island is a seaside retreat for nature lovers and those who thrive on an abundance of sun, sand and outdoor sports. Visitors will also encounter a wealth of fine dining, and a variety of interesting shops and museums to browse as they stroll the cobblestone streets in the heart of historic Fernandina Beach, Florida.
