Vendor Spotlight Is The Gorgeous Palencia Golf Club

Well, it’s that time again—time for another Vendor of the Month Spotlight.  Last month we decided to spotlight two of our fantastic vendors, and it worked so well we’ve decided to continue highlighting two of our fabulous vendors every month.  Vendor Spotlights are exciting ways for us at A Wedding Journey to promote the talented people behind their logos who work so hard to help newly engaged couples have a stressless wedding journey.

This month, we introduce one of our newest wedding venues to A Wedding Journey.  We are very excited to welcome the Palencia Golf Club of St. Augustine.  Even though they are the Premier Private Club in the Nation’s Oldest City, The Palencia Club welcomes everyone to host events in their clubhouse.  Please continue to read on to find out all about their beautiful venue.  See you after this read.
