Miami delivers beach weddings with a skyline: Atlantic sand on Miami Beach and Key Biscayne, plus glamorous bayfront and rooftop venues along Biscayne Bay. Expect a design-forward, big-party sensibility, year-round outdoor ceremonies, and a deep bench of luxury oceanfront hotels. Plan around the mild November–April window — summer is hot, humid, and stormy — and confirm each venue's rain plan, because a Miami downpour arrives fast and leaves faster.

My partner and I were here for an event and the park is incredible. Very very beautiful beach, lovely little trails to walk on and very picturesque. I would advise if you're planning on hanging out on the beach and you want to have snacks or a picnic of any sort, be aware there are racoons that do come out in the…

Wow! We were the first guests to arrive after the resort had been closed for 7 months for renovation. We were greeted by Camillo who was amazing with our luggage and gave us a tour of the upgrades.
