Port Canaveral Beach Wedding
Come and Celebrate! Let’s Plan Your
Port Canaveral Beach Wedding!
Cape Canaveral is famous for its association with NASA and is now known for its port. As the headquarters for NASA and all of the launches just to the north at the Kennedy Space Center, this little gem of a town has so much to offer. There has been such a revitalization of the coastal community over the last ten or so years. Perhaps one of the best aspects of this change has been the increase in tourism with the expansion of the port. The increase in rocket launches and NASA’s partnering with SpaceX and Blue Origin have contributed. And the building of some great resorts all along the beach, so close to Port Canaveral, makes this a conveniently perfect destination. This is a fantastic location for a Cape Canaveral or Cocoa Beach Wedding!
Why Would a Port Canaveral Beach Wedding be a Good Fit For You?
Let’s examine why having a laid-back, stress-free beach wedding in Cape Canaveral would be a good fit for you. As we get into a further in the article, there are plenty of reasons why this beach and area are incredible.
1. Family friendly beaches and resorts.
Most hotels and resorts are on the beach or across the street. This makes it super easy if you are traveling with kids. And, the beach is long, and the shoreline is gradual. This is awesome for smaller children who want to play in the waves and avoid the rough surf.
2. Proximity to Port Canaveral
This is one of the busiest ports for cruises in the world. Being so close to Orland and all the parks and the hub for Disney’s Cruises, the port is booming. If you want an economical alternative to getting married and jumping on a cruise, this is it!
3. Cost
We all know that the bottom line is the cost. The Cape Canaveral and Cocoa Beach area is excellent in that it is much more affordable to be on the beach than in many other areas. This can significantly reduce the overall expense of the trip without sacrificing the fun. Stay at an oceanfront hotel or resort and have your beach wedding right there. Then, hop over to Magic Kingdom for a day before departing on the Utopia of the Seas. Who wouldn’t want to do that?
4. Close to Disney World, Universal, and the greater Orlando area
Cape Canaveral is the closest beach to all the parks and Orlando. On a good day, it’s less than an hour away. You can say your I do’s with your toes in the sand and hug Mickey and Minnie the same day. Or, if the thrill of the roller coaster is more your speed, then Universal Studios is right there as well.
5. Great Beaches for privacy and ease of access
It goes without saying that the beaches here are some of the best along Florida’s East Coast. Long, wide beaches make for great settings for private, intimate ceremonies on the beach. And, since it’s a smaller area, the beaches are not over crowded and beaming with people at the times of day when we would host a wedding. Perhaps this is the most underrated criterion, that your wedding will feel super private with very few people around.

Pre-Cruise Beach Wedding
Have you considered wanting to say your I Do’s on a cruise? That sounds amazing, and I’m sure it is most of the time. But, there are some serious disadvantages that it’s just not for everyone. Mainly the price. Cruise weddings can be very, very pricey. If you don’t mind, then great. But not everyone wants to spend thousands of dollars to have their ceremony in a cruise ship discotheque transformed into a chapel. If that seems odd, well, yes, it sure is, but that’s what they commonly do. And the prices are not cheap. Considering a Port Canaveral or Cocoa Beach wedding is the obvious more economical option.

So, the best alternative is to plan your Cape Canaveral Beach Wedding, board your cruise, and sail away. Whether it’s just the two of you on your honeymoon or a vacation getaway for everyone invited, it is super simple, very convenient, and much more economical.
Port Canaveral Beach Wedding and Disney Vacation?
That’s right folks! Yes, you can have a beach wedding and still be less than an hour from Disney Springs and the entire Disney World area. So, you could literally have your dream beach wedding and a Disney vacation all in one. Or, even have your beach wedding and then jump aboard the Wish on a magical Disney Cruise. WOW!!!
