Dunedin Wedding

Dunedin (IPA pronunciation: [dni.dn]) is a city in Pinellas County, Florida, United States. The name comes from the Scots Gaelic Dn ideann meaning Edinburgh. The population was 35,691 at the 2000 census. As of 2004, the population recorded by the U.S. Census Bureau is 36,632.[1]. Dunedin is home to several beautiful beaches, including Dunedin Causeway, Honeymoon Island, and Caladesi Island State Park, which is consistently rated among the best beaches in the world. Dunedin is one of the few open waterfront communities from Sarasota to Cedar Key where buildings do not obscure the view.

The quaint, but thriving downtown business district has become a model for many other west-central Florida cities. It is striking in comparison to neighbouring Florida communities for its absence of commercial signage and corporate franchise restaurants and retail stores. The Pinellas Trail, a 39-mile long bicycle and pedestrian trail that traverses all of Pinellas County, intersects downtown Dunedin. On any given day, it is common for more bicycles to pass through downtown than cars. Since 1977, Dunedin is the spring training home of the Toronto Blue Jays, as well as the class-A Minor League Dunedin Blue Jays of the Florida State League. Knology Park is situated a few blocks south of downtown on Douglas Avenue, besides the Dunedin Branch Public Library, and a block east of the Gulf of Mexico and Edgewater Drive. Dunedin is one of the smallest communities used by Major League spring training teams, Knology Park was built as a replacement to Grant Field, the Blue Jays first spring training ball park.
