Anna Maria Island is not just popular with regular holidaymakers, who bring their families year after year to enjoy its safe waters, clean beaches and wonderful weather, there is another niche market who choose our island over any other.
Anna Maria has long been a top destination for happy couples wanting to get married and spend their special somewhere, well, special.
To help those undecided take the final step, Anna Maria Island Chamber of Commerce will host the second annual Strolling Wedding Festival to showcase and market ceremony and reception sites and vendors on the island. The event, which will be held January 25, 2009, will feature at least 40 bridal vendors among 12 locations.
As last year, the free island trolley will be available to shuttle couples to merchants, and there will also be a complimentary limousine service for that extra touch of class.
The event will be held from 11am to 6pm. Advance tickets are $7 a person, a $10 per person the day of the event.
This from the AMI Chamber website: 'The registration fee along with visiting at least nine out of the 12 location sites automatically enters you into the prize drawings. There is over $15,000 in prizes including a wedding package which includes many of the amenities for a wedding. Examples of the prizes include dinner gift certificates, spa services, beach or wedding portraits, limo rentals, floral arrangements, music or DJ services, jewelry, island business gift certificates, complimentary resort stays, water sport certificates, sailing certificates and much, much more.
'Upon check in each attendant will receive a complimentary wedding festival tote (to collect information in throughout the day), an island map to all the vendor sites and a schedule of activities and events going on throughout the day. At 5pm everyone will meet at the Sandbar Restaurant for the Sunset celebration where visitors can view a mock wedding after which the prizes will be awarded.'
