About Us

Owner and operator of Coastal Beach Weddings, Rebekkah is at home on the beaches of Panama City Beach.  As a native of North Florida, Rebekkah is honored to share the World's Most Beautiful Beaches with brides, grooms, families and friends from near and far.  With extensive event planning experience, including coordinating hundreds of weddings for over fifteen years, Rebekkah takes great joy in planning and executing one of the most special days of couples' lives.

  Doug has a passion for the art of photography resulting in the most stunning images.  His photography can be found throughout the City of Panama City capturing regional sports teams and promoting charity events. When not shooting a beach wedding, you will likely find Doug capturing a family session on the beach or enjoying a natural setting and sunset.  Doug's love of photography coupled with the love of sharing in couples' special day, makes him a perfect fit for Coastal Beach Weddings.  

 Kristen is the smiling face and fantastic photographer seen at many Coastal Beach Weddings events. Kristen brings fresh ideas to the planning and execution of many beach weddings.  Kristen and her husband, Logan, often shoot large weddings together as a team.  Here they are featured in their first print editorial, Northwest Florida Weddings. 

 As an ordained minister and a family man, Pastor Ed places a strong value on the wedding covenant as a way to bond individuals and strengthen families. Pastor Ed is the the peaceful face the groom meets prior to the wedding, the calm spirit who welcomes the families to the beach, and the wise voice who officiates over your wedding. Pastor Ed appreciates being a part of the joy that the couples share as they are married ... and being on the beach is just an added bonus.   

 James is a pillar of Coastal Beach Weddings.  As a Florida Notary, James enjoys Officiating over many of our beach weddings.  He has a calming presence as he greets the Groom and ensures everything is in order before the ceremony.  James takes great pride in providing a beautiful setting on the beach and sharing in a couple's lifelong commitment.  

Behind the scenes, the setup crew is making sure each wedding is ready for our Bride & Groom.  Truly at home on the sandy beaches, the crew enjoys spending time surfing, running track, and working on their environmental conservation nonprofit -  Merritt Brother Surf Preservation.  Find out more about their organization and research at: https://www.facebook.com/MerrittBrotherSurfPreservation/
