The Belleview Inn

Belleair, Florida

Just steps from Clearwater Beach is the historical Belleview Inn. The Belleview Inn has a rich history that dates back to 1897. If the walls could talk, we’d hear of famous visitors, stories from the past, and generation after generation of families staying at this iconic hotel. This Florida getaway is inviting with world-class amenities. It is a masterful combination of timeless and contemporary design. The couple chose the Belleview Inn for their intimate wedding ceremony and reception which perfectly complemented their neutral color palette thus allowing for the architecture of the venue to really shine through.

The couple chose our Classic Collection- Month of Coordination. The couple had the majority of the planning for their wedding done. They were looking for support through the process and on their wedding day. We provide this through a checklist to keep the couple on track, a timeline for all vendors, assistance in vetting vendors not secured, having open communication with all of the vendors, and making sure the rehearsal, ceremony, and reception run seamlessly.

“I can't speak highly enough of Riley and her team at EABD!!! Riley is organized, responsive, professional, and kind. When our original wedding venue canceled on us 6 months before our wedding, Riley jumped in with alternative options (and was a supportive shoulder to cry on - literally). She was the best vendor we hired, and I could not have planned my wedding without her! She answered every question along the way, and was a huge help throughout the process. She understood our vision, kept our vendors in the loop, and made our day run seamlessly! Her team also was very supportive, and jumped in whenever I had questions. When our other vendors heard we were working with EABD, they had glowing things to say, which really says a lot. Do not look any further - EABD is the best!”

-Jett & Russell

Having a solid relationship with vendors allowed for a smooth transition when the couple’s venue had to change due to construction. Together with the couple, we notified all vendors of the change. Because there was an open line of communication, all of the vendors worked together to make the couple’s special day happen even if the venue changed.
