From the reviews
We got married at the Inns of Aurora and it was truly the best day of our lives. Every detail was flawless, and the entire team went above and beyond to make the day seamless and joyful. Kim was incredible—calm, organized, and always one step ahead.
Wow what a "destination" (For Destination Defender 2026). Beautiful well kept stunning property! Food was delicious, decor spectacular and service on point!
This was a phenomenal stay. The views, food, attention from staff, and relaxing activities are exceptional. Two highlights from us were the spa and our nature trail walk with Paul.
Getting married at Inns of Aurora Resort & Spa
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
