F
or almost 20 years, Elegant Island Living has been a part of your celebrations in this community,
formal and casual, professional and poolside, indoor and outdoor, and with groups of all ages. We’ve also been known to throw a few parties ourselves. So people often come to us asking for recommendations regarding venues, entertainment, and vendors when planning their own events. Wouldn’t it be great if instead of going through the spreadsheets and notes we’ve made over the years, we had a handy directory that listed and categorized all of that info?! And so, the idea for the Plan It Connection guide was born. Here is your directory of the premier local and regional vendors and venues in

@BeachScooterBoogie
Social events are all about enjoyment and memories. A great way to make memories is to boogie around on a beachy scooter! It’s a sure-fire way to add extra fun to your special day or days. Scooters are dropped off and picked up for your convenience. The feel of zipping about in the soft island breeze is an “Experience to Experience,” and the freedom of riding around the Golden Islands is fun at it best!
