The Fontainebleau Miami Beach is the single most iconic address in Florida's wedding landscape — a 1954 Morris Lapidus Modernist masterpiece that defined Miami Beach glamour and remains the city's most celebrated grand hotel. Its soaring bow-tie tower, sprawling oceanfront pool complex, 40,000 square feet of ballroom event space, and direct Atlantic Ocean access create wedding events on a truly cinematic scale. With a world-famous culinary team and a guest roster spanning Hollywood royalty and international celebrities, the Fontainebleau is the choice for couples who want to host the most memorable party in the history of their family.
