Carol Klopfer: Whether a private sea-side wedding a once in a lifetime affair in Coral Gables or a romantic honeymoon getaway Miami is the ideal locale for a destination wedding that offers all the ambiance of an international destination without ever leaving the country.

A busy bride will appreciate the one stop shopping at Miracle Mile in nearby Coral Gables.

Maryellen Fonte: Miracle Mile is a bridal destination because we have over two dozen bridal stores here for the bride to pick out everything she needs for her bridal party.

Female Speaker: For a touch of history choose from the idyllic gardens of the Vizcaya Mansion or set the scene surrounded by the legendary architecture in lush landscaping of the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables and if you want really historic look no further than the ancient Spanish Monastery. For some urban flair, check out the 41 story JW Marriott Marquis or the palms with sizzle with south beach style.

Beach lovers will agree there is no better place to pledge your eternal love, than with your toes wiggling in the sugary white sand with azure waters is a stunning scenic background. A destination wedding would not be complete without time on your traditions like a bachelorette party. And in the city that never sleeps you can always find a place to party. For more elegant pre-wedding festivities Miami is chock full of stylish venues.

When its time to relax and unwind after the wedding, many couples choose Miami as a cosmopolitan honeymoon destination for some fun in the sun, and with hotels that offers stunning design, top notch service, relaxing spas and plush bedding you may never want to leave. Many couples leave for Miami well known as their cruise ship capital of the world to embark on their post wedding celebration.
