A South Florida Wedding Destination on Hollywood Beach
If you’re dreaming of a wedding that feels like a vacation for everyone you love, South Florida delivers the kind of “wow” you can’t fake—ocean views, golden-hour ceremonies, and a reception that carries straight into a weekend of celebrating. At Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort, you can host it all in one place: ceremony, reception, room block, and those extra moments in between that make the trip unforgettable.
Why South Florida works so well for destination weddings
South Florida is an easy “yes” for guests because it combines the essentials:
- A true getaway setting (beach + sunshine vibes)
- Flight-friendly access (Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport is about a 13-minute drive from the resort area, making arrival simpler for out-of-town guests)
- Plenty to do beyond the wedding day—beach time, dining, nightlife, and pre/post wedding activities that don’t feel like “filler”
Why Hollywood Beach is the sweet spot
Hollywood Beach offers that classic coastal Florida feel—walkable, scenic, and energizing—without your wedding weekend feeling scattered across multiple locations. Hosting your wedding where guests can step outside and immediately be “in it” (beach, Broadwalk energy, oceanfront views) makes planning cleaner and the overall experience more elevated.
A venue mix that fits the wedding you’re actually planning
One of the biggest planning challenges is finding a place that can do both: an iconic ceremony backdrop and a reception space that feels polished (and weather-flexible). Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort is built for that mix—from sunset ceremonies on Hollywood Beach to ballroom receptions overlooking the Atlantic. Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort
Beachfront ceremonies
For couples who want the natural soundtrack of waves and an aisle framed by sky and sea, the resort offers beachfront ceremony options designed specifically for wedding flow and guest comfort.
Ballroom receptions (with serious scale)
If your guest list is growing (or you simply want the production value of a formal reception), the Compass Rose Ballroom is a standout: 10,000 square feet with flexible layouts and the ability to host large celebrations. Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort
Pre-wedding and post-wedding celebrations on-site
Destination weddings don’t start at the ceremony and end at the last dance. The resort’s wedding programming supports the full weekend—bridal showers, rehearsal dinners, after-wedding brunches, and more—so you can keep everyone together and keep logistics simple.

Planning support that makes it feel effortless
A destination wedding should feel exciting, not overwhelming. The resort’s wedding team supports planning from the start—so you’re not stitching together vendors, timelines, and guest communications on your own. If you’re ready to kick off the process, the resort’s “Start Planning” pathway is built to capture your vision and move quickly into next steps.
