CURRENTLY NOT BOOKING EVENTS

Completed in 1927, the Douglas Entrance is a historical venue in Miami, FL. Originally known as La Puerta Del Sol, it was one of the original entrances into the City of Coral Gables.

Our 30’ stone fountain may be used as a ceremony space. Cocktail hour can be held outdoors in front of the building’s façade or indoors along the Grand Staircase. Dinner and dancing can be hosted inside the ballroom which showcases vaulted ceilings and large windows.

Amazing Wedding Venue & Experience

I don’t have enough words to thank Aileen Roxane Villar, the Venue Manager for Joy Wallace, in charge of Douglas Entrance the Venue. Everything was beyond my dreams. The food was spectacular. There is not one guest that didn’t say that. The staff blew my mind, their kindness and how they always had a smile on their faced made Us and our Guests feel welcome.

She is very professional, easy to work with and was so patient throughout all the planning and executing. Always willing to help and explain everything to us as many times as needed. She worked with our wedding planner, and both, with their magnificent staff, put together something magical.
