Wedding Venue

Hawks Cay Resort

Duck Key, Keys

Hawks Cay Resort sits on its own private 60-acre island in the heart of the Florida Keys on Duck Key, offering a self-contained island wedding experience with five pools, a full-service marina, and sweeping saltwater lagoon views from nearly every vantage point. The resort's dedicated wedding team has deep experience executing multi-day destination celebrations, from rehearsal dinners on the dock to sunset beach ceremonies and grand ballroom receptions. With on-site dolphin encounters, water sports, and spa services, Hawks Cay gives wedding guests a full Keys experience that goes well beyond the ceremony itself.
