COS Celebrations is a preferred wedding DJ vendor on Amelia Island, performing at the Ritz-Carlton, Omni Amelia Island Resort, Walker's Landing, and private estates across Nassau County since 2016. Some venues need help creating atmosphere - uplighting, draping, elaborate decor to manufacture a vibe. Amelia Island is not one of them. The Ritz-Carlton sits right on the Atlantic with ceremony lawns that look like nature designed them specifically for weddings. Fernandina Beach's historic downtown offers intimate charm you cannot replicate. The island does the heavy lifting. Your job is just to show up and get married in one of the most beautiful settings in Florida.
With nearly 100 Amelia Island weddings since we started and over 2,000 total celebrations across Northeast Florida, COS Celebrations understands that island elegance demands restraint. No over-the-top announcements competing with ocean waves during a Ritz lawn ceremony. No forced energy when a Walker's Landing sunset over the Intracoastal is already doing all the work. Just thoughtful music, live saxophone when it matters, and the kind of attention to detail that matches what these venues already bring to the table. Our founder spent years touring 35+ countries with artists like Usher and Alicia Keys before coming home to build something different. We are musicians first - and that shows in how we approach every Amelia Island celebration. Spring 2026 has already brought several oceanfront ceremonies to our calendar, and the island's wedding season is busier than we have seen in years.

Why Do Amelia Island Couples Choose COS Celebrations?
The Island Sets the Tone
Amelia Island weddings do not need manufactured ambiance - the Atlantic coastline, live oaks draped in Spanish moss, and Fernandina Beach's Victorian charm already provide it. After nearly 100 island weddings, we have learned when to step back and let the natural beauty lead. Our job is enhancing moments, not overpowering them.
Nearly 100 Amelia Island Weddings
We know the Ritz-Carlton's oceanfront lawns, the Omni's marsh-view ballrooms, Walker's Landing at golden hour, and the Golf Club's oak canopy. We have performed here since 2016 and understand the flow, the timing, and the venue-specific details that make Nassau County weddings run smoothly.
Live Musicians Built for Beach Settings
Live saxophone during your first dance with the ocean as backdrop. Piano for cocktail hour as guests watch the sun set over the Intracoastal. COS pioneered the DJ plus live musician model in North Florida, and it is particularly magical on Amelia Island where the atmosphere already feels elevated.

What Should Amelia Island Couples Know About the 2026 Wedding Season?
Amelia Island's spring 2026 season is shaping up to be one of the busiest we have seen. The Ritz-Carlton has expanded its outdoor ceremony options with a newly refreshed oceanfront lawn, and Walker's Landing continues to be one of the most in-demand sunset venues in Nassau County. A few trends we are seeing from couples booking Amelia Island weddings this year:
Earlier Booking Windows
Peak dates at the Ritz-Carlton and Omni are booking 12 to 14 months out in 2026, up from 8 to 10 months in previous years. If you are planning an Amelia Island wedding for fall 2026 or spring 2027, now is the time to lock in your vendors.
Live Music Demand Is Up
More Amelia Island couples are requesting live saxophone and piano alongside DJ services in 2026. The combination of ocean breezes and live instruments creates an atmosphere that speakers alone cannot match - especially for outdoor cocktail hours at the Golf Club or Walker's Landing.
Destination Couples Love the App
With so many Amelia Island weddings planned by out-of-state couples, our COS Music + Timeline app has become essential. Couples from New York, Atlanta, and Chicago are building their entire wedding timeline and song lists remotely, then meeting their DJ for the first time at rehearsal.
