The most beautiful location and we couldn't have been happier with everybody at the venue!

Our Fontainebleau wedding is still being talked about by our friends and family because it was so spectacular.

We had a bit of a rough start with the Fontainebleau and the planner we were assigned. However, that planner disappeared (no idea what happened to her), Katie Bennett stepped in, and Katie worked hard to rectify her predecessor's mistakes; everything was smooth sailing from there. Big compliments to Katie for her hard work. Make sure to work with Katie!

We had a lovely ceremony on the lawn and our reception was in the main ballroom with our band playing on the stage Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack used to frequent. Talk about an amazing and fun experience! Believe it or not, the food is really good. When we went to our food tasting we were told the food would be very good. Neither of us really believed that because it is hotel wedding food, but we were blown away...it was the best wedding food we have ever had. Our wedding cake was equally fantastic.

The hotel obviously handles many weddings and has their plan down to an art. Some things the hotel set for us, which at first seemed odd, turned out to be brilliant, like our suite which was large and somewhat odd, but turned out to have tons of space for the bridal party to prepare (including enough outlets for hair dryers and curling irons) and great balconies for pictures. Very well thought out and made our experience that much better.

The pool area is fantastic and gave our guests a great area to hang out during the day before the ceremony.

We had many options for wedding venues and it was a tough decision to make. We couldn't be happier that we picked the Fontainebleau.

Katie and the Fontainebleau Team were exceptional! They went out of their way to make our special day run smoothly. We planned our destination wedding from NY, and Katie was the best with planning, emailing, and calling us to help set everything up and answer all of our questions. The venue is gorgeous and worth every penny, they also really work with you to make it all doable. The food was perfect, the staff was great. We had our rehearsal dinner at Scarpetta (Italian) it was to die for. If you want to impress your guests and have a beautiful wedding in Miami call Katie and have it at the Fontainebleau. : )

My wedding at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach was all I ever dreamed and more. The food selections, the staff, and amenities were all top notch and they made my wedding day dreams a reality. I cannot put into words how much I recommend having a wedding at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach. To top it off I had the best event Floral Designer and Event Decorator in South Florida. Dream Occasions Studio was able to create everything I envisioned and made my wedding ceremony and reception look amazing with the freshest flowers and artistic floral creations and decorating. I will forever have the best memories of my wedding day with the most amazing photographer in South Florida, Couture Bridal Photography. Alfredo did an amazing job capturing my wedding day from beginning to end and captured every detail and emotion throughout the day.
I recommend the Fontainebleau Miami Beach, Dream Occasions Studio and Couture Bridal Photography for any weddings.

Staff:

Katie worked with us for our wedding. She was very nice, calm, and on top of things throughout the whole process. She was incredible to work with! Katie along with our planner Carrie Zack made our wedding just from the service they provided. Very professional and easy to work with. She made sure everything was taken care of for our family's stay as well. We couldn't have asked for any one better. Anything we needed they were on top of it, always easy to get ahold of, and always responded quickly. VIP staff were beyond helpful and so nice. They truly made our stay - nothing we asked for was an issue. You could easily spend the same amount of money and receive half of what you get at the Fontainebleau. Katie and the VIP staff made things better than expected!

Food:

We almost didn't do tastings but I am so glad we did, it was a big part of the whole process. Food, wine desserts, drinks, and service was incredible! The food for the wedding was still good but not quite the same as in the tastings. The open bar, wine, champagne, and 3 course meal is a great deal for The $200+ you will pay per person.

Rehearsal:

We did the rehearsal dinner at Scarpetta which was recommended to us. If I were to do it over I would have had it privately catered by the Fontainebleau at a location onsite. Scarpetta food was OK, service was OK, we were at one long table and it was difficult to talk to each other.

Cost:

In regards to the per person cost it is a great value.

Spa:

I chose to have our hair and make up done at Lapis Salon. They did a great job.

Markess and I would like to give our special thanks to you, Katie, for being there with us throughout this whole journey. We would also like to express our appreciation your team for the superior service and professionalism we received during our wedding night.

Our entire experience at Fontainebleau has been nothing but fantastic! Kudos to all the staff at the hotel and keep up the high service standards. We will surely recommend our friends to hold events at Fontainebleau.

Katie Bennett and the Fontainebleau Miami Beach offered unprecedented service, professionalism, and experience in helping plan and facilitate our dream wedding. Katie went above and beyond on every level to ensure that our wedding was everything we had imagined. We couldn't ask for a more gorgeous location to say our I do's or a more accommodating staff to work with. They made the most amazing day of our lives that much more memorable. Thank you! :)
