From the moment we arrived for our first meeting at PGA National we knew this was the venue for us. Collaborating with Nickole D'Angelo our contact was amazing. Nickole listened to us and executed our vision for our son and daughter in laws welcome dinner and brunch. She was truly amazing in every way.
We also would like to recognize Marisa our room coordinator for keeping us up to date as well has helping coordinating the room assignments. She was a dream to work with.
The events were flawless. It was a magical weekend. Everyone from the bellman, valet, all those involved with catering and hsopitality were professional and friendly.
I will certainly be recommending PGA National to everyone that asks.
Thank you to PGA National for making our son and daughter in laws wedding weekend so memorable. XOXO

owed me to lock in a fair rate for all my guest, thanks to Nickole D’Angelo! The front desk staff like Michael, Teresa and Frank. We also had the BEST service at Honeybell with Angel. She remembered our names each morning. Remembered what we liked for breakfast and was able to accommodate large parties. She really took the extra step to make sure we had a lovely visit. The Spa was great and we loved Jessica and Nicole. The accommodations were perfect! Large rooms, exceptional cleanliness, the most comfy beds and a diner!!!! The diner’s food is top notch with homemade salad dressing and super fresh chicken salad sandwiches. We can’t say enough about how awesome our stay was at PGA National for my wedding weekend. Thank you again to Nicole in Event planning for securing our meeting space, hotel rooms, etc. She chose the perfect suite for me and my Groom! Also, Alex at the Receation Center reserved a pickleball court or two for our bridal group. He was a fantastic communicator! Marissa sent us weekly updates on our room block, We can’t wait to make this place our home away from home. It was a terrific wedding weekend hotel!

to work with. She was organized, attentive, and genuinely committed to making every detail work!
One of the best parts of choosing PGA was having all of our events in one place. It created such a warm, connected atmosphere—our guests were able to meet, mingle, and spend real quality time together throughout the weekend. The resort itself offers so many activities that we were able to plan a pickleball tournament, which ended up being a huge highlight and such a fun way for both sides of the family to bond.
We also booked the presidential suite for the weekend, and it was incredible. It provided the perfect space for the bride and her bridesmaids to get ready, and it was so convenient to host our Sunday grab-and-go there as well. Having that spacious, comfortable, and beautifully appointed suite truly elevated the entire experience.
PGA Resort exceeded every expectation we had. From the staff to the amenities to the seamless flow of the weekend, it was spectacular. We could not imagine a better place to celebrate such an important moment in our family’s life. Highly recommend!

ner feels like a dream. From the breathtaking views to the beautiful event spaces, everything was just perfect. But what really made the experience unforgettable was the staff. Total rockstars! Every single person we worked with was professional, warm, and totally on top of it. You could tell they’ve done this a million times — so organized, so detail-oriented — but they still made it feel personal and special. They handled everything with such ease and made the entire planning process (and the big day!) stress-free. It honestly felt like we were in the best hands the whole time. Plus, they were just genuinely awesome people. If you’re even thinking about booking your wedding here — do it. You won’t regret it. This venue and their team are the full package.

ver the next year of planning, Nickole answered countless calls, emails and texts from us, and she truly went above and beyond with every request that we had. There was nothing PGA wasn’t willing to work with us on and Nickole was always able to figure out a solution. Nickole has become our good friend along the way, and we look forward to seeing her every time we visit PGA. Unlike other venues with strict vendor lists and requirements, PGA is EASY to work with and you can have the wedding that you want and work with vendors of your choice. There are so many ballrooms to choose from, a variety of outdoor spaces and they can pretty much accommodate a wedding of any size. We got married just a few weeks ago and guests haven’t stopped raving about the incredible cocktail hour, the food and how amazing the hotel was. I had the most incredible suite to get ready in – I highly recommend the presidential suite for all brides! The versatile backgrounds across the property make for some incredible wedding photos and with so many on-site activities and restaurants your out-of-town guests will have plenty to do. I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding weekend, none of it would have been possible without Nickole’s help and PGA’s flexibility! I can’t say enough good comments about our wedding experience and will probably go over the max word limit so thank you, Nickole and PGA, for the best weekend of my life - we will be back to visit often!!!

We could not have picked a more perfect venue to host our wedding weekend. The resort is absolutely beautiful, the options for events are limitless, and Nickole and her team are ea...
ger to ensure you have the best time (including by working seamlessly with your outside vendors).
We were having a destination wedding and wanted to find a place where everyone would be excited to stay for the weekend, could get to easily, and was equipped to handle multiple events to avoid the need for transportation. PGA National was just that. We kicked off the weekend with a pool day (where we rented cabanas), and also hosted our rehearsal dinner, welcome event (with glow-in-the-dark golf!), ceremony, and reception on-site. Every event was so unique, but equally as beautiful and all filled with amazing food.
In terms of the accommodations, the rooms are very spacious (especially the suites), which makes for a great getting ready experience. I had a large wedding party of 10, and all girls and moms had plenty of space for hair and makeup. I also want to highlight the beautiful décor throughout the resort. The wallpaper is so unique, the lobby bar is stunning, and there are countless places to get fun and creative photos. We were having a pink wedding, and the resort backdrop could not have been a more perfect space. (And as a side note, PGA National has one of the most neutral ballrooms I have seen at a hotel, which allowed us to really make it ours.)
Lastly, this review would be remiss without giving a special shout out to all the team members who were on-site during our events, including the bartenders and waitstaff. Every single person in the room had a smile on their face the whole time and seemed happy to be a part of the wedding. This made for such an enjoyable experience for everyone in attendance.
I truly could not have asked for a better, more perfect place to get married than PGA National. We (and all of our guests) wish we could keep reliving the experience!

dn’t reach out for even the smallest question. Nickole D’Angelo was my fairy godmother and was with me every step of the way. She even stayed during my wedding until well into the night to make sure we were as happy as we could be and everything was the way we wanted it.
We recently returned to the resort to celebrate our one year anniversary and again, we were more than taken care of. From the decor and sweet treats in our room upon arrival to the custom “happy anniversary” menus at Butchers Club, we felt so loved. The concierge was even able to set us up with a cabana that was filled with champagne and balloons. PGA has become like family to us and to think it all started with something as stressful as wedding planning. This will forever be our favorite place and we cannot wait to continue making memories here for the many anniversaries to come. Our wedding day would definitely have not been the same if it was not at PGA.

t PGA made our weekend magical. We wanted a Weeknd where our friends and family could come to a resort and not have to leave the venue for the weekend. The golf, spa, pool and restaurants are right there.
Our wedding was perfect. We were married on the Lakeside Lawn which was so beautiful, we lucked out with a beautiful day. The rehearsal dinner or "Welcome " dinner as we called it was in the Honda Pavillion as was our brunch on Sunday morning. It is an awesome venue.
Our cocktail hour was in the courtyard in front of the British Ballroom and it is so lovely with all the greenery. The reception was in the British ballroom. Everything about the weekend was wonderful. The food was awesome (they are great when dealing with food allergies, my daughter has celiacs) the staff was amazing. Everyone from the amazing bell captain to the housekeeping staff was wonderful;. They are all so friendly.
Please do not let your nerves get the best of you as mine did on occasion the staff and banquet coordinators have your back.

ice (Kavin and others), to check in (Crystal), we were welcomed with warm smiles and the willingness to take care of us. As frantic as the mother of the bride can be days before the wedding, Danielle kept us all calm and had everything in control. The transition from ceremony, to cocktail hour, to reception was all seamless as Danielle directed the guests to the various locations in a timely manner. It was nice to have everything be taken care of in one place. The food at all the multiple events we had at PGA, including wedding reception, was top class. The newly renovated lobby and lobby bar and iDeck are beautiful and a great place for family and guests to congregate and enjoy a cocktail or so. The resort is conveniently located very close to a multitude of eateries and shopping. Rooms and cottages were comfortable. PGA is a beautiful venue for wedding and reception whether it's at the Lakeside Lawn , Honda Pavilion, or any of their ballrooms. You will not be disappointed.

g day went smoothly. We had our wedding date postponed 2x due to Covid and Kimmie along with PGA National worked with us which makes me give them 5 stars.
As far as the grounds, it is an amazing venue for pictures and different ceremony rooms to choose from according to the size of your wedding. I did have my wedding during the renovation, but I was just happy that PGA National was flexible and understanding with rescheduling the wedding twice.
I will note, this is a family resort, so you have to share the grounds with a decent amount of children. If this is a destination wedding or a party looking for an adult only resort, might have to take that into consideration.
Overall, venue, food, wedding venue budgeting was excellent. Definitely recommend for the overall experience.

This review is mostly for Kimmie as she went above and beyond in terms of service. My husband and I decided on getting married at the beautiful PGA resort prior to the pandemic. Th...
ey were undergoing massive renovations and Kimmie kept us posted every step of the way. One day, I received a phone call from Kimmie telling us that the renovations would be happening over our wedding day. I could hear the absolute pain in her voice in telling me this news. She gave me a moment to process what she just told me and then immediately began discussing the plan. She had contacted local venues to find availability for my wedding date and kept in mind our style and preferences. Her recommendation led us to our new venue and the transition was seamless. I am so thankful for her sympathy and help. She even texted me on my wedding day with well wishes. Kimmie, you are the best!
We were thrilled with our wedding day, but PGA truly is beautiful and a great way to keep your family together and on-site. You get the feel of a destination wedding without the airfare (for those of us who are lucky to live in Florida). We can’t wait to visit when renovations are done!

FRom the wedding planning process up until the night of the wedding, we did not feel worried once. Their professionalism is second to none. Kimmie has become so close to us even after the wedding was over. She went above and beyond to ensure we felt special, loved, and taken care of. We LOVED our wedding at PGA and would do it over again 1,000 times.
Mother of the Bride- On November 14, 2020 my daughter had an amazing wedding. But if we go back months, I would have never thought that was going to happen. 2020 brought on difficulties and we lost our original venue. In stepped PGA National, which was a beginning choice but I didn't think I could pull it off. However, after losing our venue, my daughter reached out and met Kimmie. After our first meeting with her I knew we would be in good hands. Kimmie treated us with professionalism, respect, and compassion. She was very organized and compromising. But on top of all this, she was warm and friendly, making me, the mother of the bride, feel like family. She turned around a difficult situation and the wedding was beyond amazing. I would recommend this venue with Kimmie coordinating the even to anyone!

PGA and specifically Kimmie were nothing short of amazing! Staff was wonderful, food was great. Everything was perfect on wedding day, Kimmie was there throughout the whole process...
pre wedding for whatever i needed, and was super helpful wedding day as well. The venue itself is beautiful and would recommend having your wedding here to anyone. We can't wait to come back here for little getaways!

ities, PGA is an all-in-one wedding venue! During our perfect wedding weekend at PGA, we enjoyed a spacious bridal suite, pool, spa, wedding ceremony under the pavilion (with amazing views of the golf course) and a reception in the beautiful British Ballroom. What more could we ask for?!
From the start, the staff was awesome! They gave us a thorough tour of the stunning grounds and walked us through the ceremony/reception options. The wedding packages and pricing were clearly listed - no surprises! Our wedding package included a private food-tasting experience to help with our menu selection. We chose the duet entrée, and it was the most delicious dinner ever! Kudos to the catering staff - our guests were filled with compliments!
The real ‘gem’ in our wedding experience at PGA was Kimberly ‘Kimmie’ Amezcua! We can’t praise and thank her enough for her professionalism, kindness and dedication! We were sad that we had to postpone our April wedding to October, but Kimmie went completely out of her way to make the process seamless. She is sweet and compassionate, and she patiently worked with us as we navigated through the changes needed to keep our guests safe and healthy. She quickly responded to every email, phone call, request, change and concern.
Kimmie truly went above and beyond to make our wedding weekend special! She handled every detail of our wedding day with tons of positivity, eagerness and smiles. We were extremely impressed with how she coordinated with our vendors to ensure that our ceremony and reception were absolutely amazing! We are so grateful for our wedding experience with Kimmie and PGA! It was everything we hoped for...and more!

Where to begin??
I was so stressed about the details of the wedding things I was going to bring, and to make sure they were in the right place. I have been stressed about it every ...
day up until a day prior to the wedding day, when I got to the Resort, and I met with our venue coordinator, Kimmie. In my mind I was already ready to explain to her where every single thing was going to go, but without me explaining anything, she grabbed every little thing with such confidence and at that point I knew I could breathe again! And I did. I wasn’t worried anymore. I was relieved. I knew she really had this. And she did have this! With my crappy small post-its notes, she managed to put every detail and everything better than I could have described in person or wanted to or would have done myself. I thank Kimmie for every little detail I know she worked so hard to accomplish. From coordinating everyone to enter, to speaking to the DJ about the songs, to every little thing really! That day didn’t go stressful at all, just went smooth. And we thank Kimmie, and PGA for everything!! We couldn’t have picked a better venue/place, and we couldn’t have had a better coordinator! From beginning to end communication was amazing with Kimmie! Also, for venue, PGA is the perfect place for nice couple photos, as the outside pool at the Spa is beautiful, and the bridge at PGA, and the whole greenery scenery really, will make for amazing photos!! 💗💗💗💗 We are sooo grateful and thankful we got PGA to host our special day, and we’re even more thankful we got an amazing coordinator. Words will never be enough on how thankful we are! ❤️

stantly hit it off. Without her, I know this whole process would not have gone as smoothly as it did. Kimmie was my go to gal throughout our 18mth engagement. She was there to answer any and all questions we had. The resort was extremely accommodating for all of our out of town and local guests. With our wedding taking place during these uncertain COVID times, it was a breath of fresh air to have a weekend filled with a sense of “normalcy” for everyone. From the staff, to the accommodations, to the amazing food...we HIGHLY recommend PGA National!!

could to make sure our day was absolutely perfect! We got there Friday and had our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner there which couldn’t have been nicer! Then the wedding day was just unbelievable... Everything I imagined and more. The resort is beautiful, the staff is so nice and helpful, the food is awesome and everything went so smoothly from the beginning of the day getting ready, to the ceremony, to the very end of the reception. I couldn’t have dreamt of anything better! I will cherish the memories we made there forever and can’t wait to go back for anniversaries!

I want to start off by saying that if you are having any doubts about choosing PGA as your venue, STOP DOUBTING and choose them! There are no words to truly describe how grateful I...
am for Kimmie and everyone else at PGA National for making my dream wedding come true. My husband and I originally chose a different venue for our wedding on June 12, 2020, but due to COVID, this venue cancelled on us TWO WEEKS before our date. We were crushed, and since we were planning this as a destination wedding we had no idea how to change things around from far away. We had actually toured PGA when we were originally looking at venues and fell in love with Kimmie right away. When we decided on the other venue for no other reason than to have a beach, I told Kimmie that I wish I could take her with us because she was so great. Well, we got our wish of having her as our coordinator because PGA was the only venue around who was able to accommodate our last minute request! Kimmie and her team worked tirelessly, answered our millions of questions as soon as we asked and replanned our entire wedding in less than a week! I completely regret not choosing this venue from the beginning. Kimmie and the rest of the staff treated us and our guests as VIPs for the entire wedding weekend. From room upgrades, to taking care of our wedding items and card box to a wedding night goodie bag. There were surprises and gifts that I would never expect. Kimmie is truly the most generous and caring person and I have no doubt that she will take care of every bride and treat you like family as she did with us. Thank you Kimmie and everyone at PGA, you are the absolute best!!

f Kimmie and Arianna, they were a god send, seriously the nicest most helpful and kind people. The food was incredible as well I had so many people say they were blown away by how delicious it was. I loved ceremony space, the banquet room and cocktail hour space. I have nothing constructive to say my whole day went with not a single issue. Best day of my life.
Also spent the weekend at the resort the spa was incredible

ng and even with a day of wedding manager change they treated us so well and ensured everything would be taken care of which it was.
We were transferred to Kimmie for our new manger a month before or wedding and she made me feel so comfortable every step of the way. Any issue that came up she made sure I did not stress and took care of everything. She truly wanted my day to be as special as possible and successfully guided everything to run from start to finish and we can’t thank her enough!

dea of what good hospitality is. With that said I can confidently say that the staff at PGA National Resort and Spa truly get it. Our wedding planning started out rough as our first planner quit midway through. Thus we were forced to take on another one, which as anybody knows who has planned a wedding is already stressful enough. Originally we were not thrilled as we really did enjoy our first planner, but looking back at it now we are so glad it happened this way because Kimmie and Arianna are the best in the Palm Beach area. From the second they took over our wedding they were more than accommodating and also just good people to be around. To put it simply they both just put off good vibes and are easy to work with. We can never thank them enough as we know how much work they really put into the wedding. But at the end of the day they crushed it and made the event memorable. I can’t tell you how many people kept telling us that our wedding was the best wedding that they have ever been to! This just goes to show the exceptional job that the staff at PGA does. Every time I would finish my drink (which happened a lot...) I would come back from the dance floor and it would already be replenished without me even having to ask. That is just one of the small details that really showed the how service exceeded most other venues. All in all if you are going to have a wedding I strongly suggest you choose PGA and ask for Kimmie and Arianna, as you won't be disappointed!

I would like to thank Nickole D’Angelo, Caitlin, Arianna, and the entire staff at PGA National Resort and Spa for making my wedding day the absolute best day of my life thus far. N...
o other venue comes close in my eyes. Nickole was such a blessing to us during our wedding planning process. Nickole made sure to put all our fears to rest and ensured we had a smooth transition from one event to the next. Nickole and her team made sure that there were no hiccups throughout the event, she made sure to work within our budget and outline clearly what was happening every step of the way. Every time I left a meeting with Nickole, I left feeling relieved and as though a weight had been lifted. They kept up with us and listened to everything we wanted for our day. I can say with full honesty, Nickole promised us excellence and she damn well delivered.
Not only were the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception spaces absolutely gorgeous and scenic, but the food was DELICIOUS! All our wedding guests kept raving about the sushi bar action station, as well as, the Salmon and Filet Mignon dual-entree. Moreover, the entire staff at PGA National Resort and Spa were helpful, prompt and warm throughout our wedding and throughout our stay at the hotel. We experienced absolute luxury and cannot wait to come back for our anniversary next year!
Again, I want to thank our catering manager and wedding wizard, Nickole D’Angelo, her helpful staff, Caitlin Cronin and Arianna Barletta, our server Angel from the Palm Terrace restaurant, Clarice at the front desk, and our housekeeper Clemence for their wonderful service. We truly appreciate everything that was done for us during our wedding and after.
