Let’s talk about wedding venues in Miami. Today I am back with a new location for my “Top wedding venues” series! This time we are hopping over to Miami. If you haven’t read any of the blogs in this series yet, I round up my top 3 wedding venues in different areas around Florida and beyond. So far I have named my top wedding venues in 30A, Destin, and Orlando. I thought it was about time we gave Miami some love. 

1. The Betsy Hotel 

The Betsy Hotel is a dream location for all of my romantics out there. This place looks straight out of a wedding rom com! The atmosphere even from photos is airy and romantic and they have so many options for ceremony and reception space. They have an oceanfront deck for a more beachy vibe, a skyline deck, an indoor atrium that can fit up to 600 people, and a rooftop pool deck with a 360-degree view of the Miami skyline. They also have more intimate areas like a library and gallery where you could host a ceremony or rehearsal dinner!

This location is also a great option for entertaining your guests because it’s a hotel. You and your bridal party can stay here the night before with the guests. Then you can get a bridal suite for the night of your wedding! And a huge plus for out of town guests or anyone who is afraid of leaving their furry friend at home? Dogs are welcome here! 

2. The Penthouse at Riverside Warf

This venue has a classic Miami feel. It’s downtown and has a 360 degree view of the Miami skyline as well! They have a gorgeous rooftop which would be so much fun for receptions. I think where this location really shines though is in their indoor space. It’s a large open space with huge windows all around, giving the room a ton of natural light. It feels like a blank canvas inside in the best way! I really think you could decorate this space to fit most aesthetics and make it your own. I will say this venue does lean more to a city vibe which is right up my alley! A few bonuses? They have clear ghost chairs and tables already at the venue and huge garage doors that open up to the rooftop so the party can flow in and out!

3. Samsara Gardens

Okay, this venue gave me real-life heart eyes when I saw it. It is a Balinese inspired wedding venue! If you want to be transported straight to a tropical island or exotic jungle, look no further. Do you know the wedding scene in Crazy Rich Asians? I am 100% sure that you could recreate that scene here! They have waterfalls and koi ponds and a stunning outdoor ceremony area with huge trees that give you a lush and tropical vibe. There’s greenery and palms for days and even a little island-inspired hut that would be so much fun for bridal portraits. Also, their food looks amazing! They have an in house catering service that works with you to create your own menu for your wedding and I can guarantee anything they come up with will be delicious. 

That was my top 3 wedding venues in Miami! What would be your pick? I am always up for touring venues with my couples so definitely reach out if you have any questions or have another venue in mind you’d like to check out. Which city should we explore next?
