The Crowne Plaza Melbourne Oceanfront places couples on the doorstep of Florida's fascinating Space Coast — a stretch of Atlantic beachfront where Kennedy Space Center rocket launches have lit the sky since the Apollo era and where wide, uncrowded beaches provide a dramatically different atmosphere from the crowded southern Florida coast. The hotel's direct beachfront ceremony access on the Atlantic, ballroom and event spaces with ocean views, and position in the heart of Brevard County's active cultural and outdoor recreation community make it an ideal choice for couples with ties to the region's aviation, engineering, and scientific community — and for anyone who wants a beautiful beach wedding without the crowds.
