Garden Wedding Venues In Miami
Garden weddings are an absolute dream, perhaps because we’ve seen so many romantic movies where flowers adorn stunning outdoor celebrations, or perhaps because we associate Spring with a lovely season!

The Best Hotel / Indoor Wedding Venues In Miami
Hosting your wedding at a hotel has many benefits, especially if you are having a destination wedding.
A hotel offers your guests the convenience they might be looking for; there’s nothing like having amenities and delicious restaurants just a few steps away from your room.
Since the weather in Miami can be very unpredictable, indoor venues are the perfect choice for couples who want to get married in sunny Miami but also want peace of mind that, no matter the weather outside, they and their guests will be comfortable.
Some of these hotels/spaces also have the option to host events outdoors, giving you the flexibility to choose different spaces for your celebrations.
