From the reviews
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Drive the Coast and the incredible experience we had hosting our wedding reception there. From the very beginning, Josh went above and beyond to ensure every detail was just right.
I recently had the pleasure of utilizing the Drive the Coast event center for the weekend, and it was an absolute thrill from start to finish! Just a mile from all the cool places on 30A as well as the beach, this classic car warehouse isn't just any meeting space—it's an experience like nothing I’ve ever been to…
After seeing the space we decided to accept the offer to partner with the owners to host our annual fundraiser. BeGenerous Inc’s 7th Annual Gathering in the Garden was an amazing success!! Our best yet thanks to Josh and Elizabeth Meeh and their phenomenal team! The staff were friendly and willing to help.
Drive the Coast was the perfect space for the recent conference I attended! Not only was the venue a unique space, surrounded by classic cars, but the build-out of this space was impeccable. It didn’t even feel like a warehouse because the glass garage doors let in so much natural light!
Getting married at Drive The Coast Event Venue
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
