Fort Lauderdale Beach Weddings

Fort Lauderdale Beach Weddings

Fort Lauderdale is known as the ‘The Venice of America’ for the never-ending winding canals and waterways.  Historically known for its lively Spring Break tradition, the beach attracts people from all over the world.  Fort Lauderdale is an international destination for beachgoers and vacationers from all over the globe.  People from all over the United States come to beautiful South Florida for Fort Lauderdale Beach Weddings!

Set Sail From Fort Lauderdale

Fort Lauderdale is just minutes away from Port Everglades.  With the ships setting sail almost hourly, so many Caribbean and international cruising options are waiting for you.  It is the perfect opportunity to have your Fort Lauderdale Beach Wedding.  Then set sail on a magical Caribbean Honeymoon.  A beach wedding offers more flexibility than getting married on a cruise ship.  It also comes with a better value. The cruise ships’ prices are so much higher.  Photography is also a huge thing to consider.  An open natural beach setting is ideal for photos.  An inside area on a cruise is not ideal for a picturesque wedding.

Enjoy Everything South Florida

Fort Lauderdale Beach offers plenty of nightlife, restaurants, and lodging options.  There are so many great resorts to choose from. From smaller boutique hotels, some with rooftop decks perfect for receptions immediately following your Fort Lauderdale Beach wedding, to the larger resorts, there is something for everyone. The Sonesta Fort Lauderdale Beach offers reasonable rates, excellent reception space, and a fantastic top-floor ballroom overlooking the beach and all of Fort Lauderdale Beach.  The Pelican Grand Beach Resort is also a fantastic oceanfront property where you can have your ceremony on the beach.  They also have a fun pool area with a lazy river, perfect for bringing the kids on a fun family getaway for your wedding.

If you want to stay further south along the beach, there are so many great resorts to choose from.  From the Hilton, Conrad, and The W, there are too many to choose from.  Just a litter further down, another one of our favorites is The Hotel Maren.  Located close to everything, this is one of the newest hotels along the beach and is absolutely gorgeous.  So, if you want a ceremony on the beach and a laid-back style reception, we highly recommend Hotel Maren.

If you are looking for a more laid-back style reception or party, the absolute perfect venue is Park and Ocean.  Hands down, this rustic beachy vibe will satisfy those who want a true beach feel for their celebratory dinner or reception.  Park & Ocean is such a fun venue. They are so accommodating and will absolutely work with you to create the food and beverage package that fits your needs.

Fort Lauderdale Beach has many popular venues: Las Olas, Beach Place, The Marriott Harbor Beach Resort, The Westin, B Ocean, and The W are just a few more options to consider.  Fort Lauderdale Beach is known for beautiful beaches, eclectic eats, and a nightlife atmosphere. You will never be bored staying in Fort Lauderdale Beach!
