Weddings on Florida's Space Coast

Your space for love

Weddings bring out the romantic in all of us. And no place is better to begin your own "happily ever after" adventure than on the Space Coast.

Who wants the golden rays of the setting sun bathing your future spouse in glory? Say, "I do."

Who wants the sugar-fine sand of the Atlantic Ocean shore tickling your toes as friends and family look on? Say, "I do."

Who wants to marry cruising serenely down the Indian River Lagoon on a paddleboat, while playful dolphins dance in the waves nearby? Say, "I do.

And we're just getting started. Create the drama of your big day on the Space Coast. For a long guest list or an intimate ceremony with close family and friends, this is the perfect place to celebrate your dream destination wedding.

Pulling out all the stops? Hotels and resorts lining our shores offer various wedding packages, and local event planners know the best beach spots and other imaginative places to tie the knot.
