Rating Off the Grid Clay Count Wedding Venues

Not all venues are created equal. There are so many places to have a wedding, a special event, a birthday photobooth, but we are here to help. Having a successful photobooth in Jacksonville starts with the right venue. When we say Jacksonville, we mean almost all of north Florida. St. Augustine to Starke to Amelia Island. We’ve even gone as far as Lake City. Here are some places that we can personally vouch for. They may be a little rough around the edges in spots, but they’ve all been successful setting where Big Fun Photo Booth was there, too.

Three Venues in Clay County

Magnolia Point Golf & Country Club: Where Elegance Meets Nature’s Beauty

Nestled in the heart of Clay county wedding venue territories like Green Cove Springs, Magnolia Point Golf & Country Club stands as a picturesque venue that seamlessly combines refined elegance with the natural beauty of Clay County. With its rolling fairways, serene lakes, and lush landscapes, this golf and country club offers a stunning backdrop for weddings and special events.

Whether exchanging vows beneath a canopy of ancient oaks or celebrating in the grand ballroom with panoramic vistas, Magnolia Point Golf & Country Club ensures an unforgettable occasion that marries the allure of nature with timeless sophistication.

The Hilltop Club & Restaurant: Rustic Chic Charm in Keystone Heights

Perched atop one of Clay County’s rolling hills, The Hilltop Club & Restaurant exudes rustic charm and timeless allure.

West St. Johns County Wedding Venues

The further away from the ocean, the lower the tide and the costs go down. These venues are more than just west of A1A. They’re near or west of US 95. This part of St. Johns county is exclusive, but no where near as prices and those coastal St. Johns’ venues. Trust me.

Bowing Oaks Plantation

A hidden gem tucked away from a very unassuming part of Phillips Highway is the Bowing Oaks Plantation. because it is the closest to our Ponte Vedra headquarters. Parking is easy, but the location itself is not near any hotels or airports, unless you consider the St. Augustine airport an airport. It’s the North Florida something or other, if that gives you any ideas.

Bowing Oaks is nestled on five acres in south Jacksonville, just minutes from shops, restaurants, hotels and major highways. Designed specifically for wedding, the property features two picturesque ceremony sites, two spacious dressing rooms for the wedding party, and an air conditioned ballroom seating up to 200 guests. Rental of the venue includes banquet tables, chiavari chairs and ceremony chairs, plus romantic draping, uplighting and crystal chandeliers in the ballroom. Bowing Oaks only hosts one wedding per day, so you can relax and enjoy the day!

Crosswater Hall at Nocatee

Second on our list of our favorite Jacksonville or St. Augustine wedding or special event photo booth joints is the Crosswater Hall at Nocatee. Located right next door to their main Splash Park, you can get married outdoors while kids are just meters away screaming and having fun while you tie the knot. After the ceremony on the finely trimmed lawn, you march upstairs for your reception. It isn’t the biggest hall, but once again it is close to our headquarters. The second floor room has an elevator and vendor parking is not bad.

St. Johns Golf and Country Club

Swinging into third on our list is St. Johns Golf and Country Club in St. Johns, Florida. The best golf course that you can play on for under $60 a round.
