Important Update

The Florida Department of State and Mission San Luis are grateful to Governor Ron DeSantis and the Florida Legislature for appropriating funds to construct Artifact Curation and Conservation facilities at Mission San Luis. Construction of these facilities will be underway beginning in June 2025 and will affect certain areas of the Mission San Luis site until January 2027.

As a result, our Rentals program will only be accepting requests with a max guest count of 100 due to limited parking availability, until the end of December 2026. I apologize for the inconvenience! Keep in mind that we still plan to open back up for larger scale events and can start booking for January 2027 as early as today.

If you have specific questions about how construction will impact your event, or if you wish to cancel or modify your reservation, please contact us at rentals@missionsanluis.org, or 850.245.6388.


Make Your Wedding Historic!

Mission San Luis is a National Historic Landmark site on 63 beautiful acres in Tallahassee, Florida. This unique wedding venue in northern Florida offers several chic and memorable event spaces for your nuptials. Mission San Luis is perfect for ceremony and reception as well as for rehearsal dinners and engagement parties.

Facilities

With eight different indoor and outdoor areas, you and your sweetheart can find the best combination of spaces for the vibe of your wedding. Indoor options include the Spanish-mission-style, 2-story Visitor Center lobby and the Mission Room banquet hall with adjoining entry lobby. A classroom and a boardroom serve as ideal getting-ready spots for the wedding party, and they’re also great places to keep the kids content and entertained until the fun starts. Outdoors, choose between the enclosed courtyard with fountain -- great for small ceremonies or cocktail lounges -- or the “paseo” area leading up to the "portal" to the 17th-century living history museum.

The Mission Room features impressive, vaulted ceilings and can hold 180 family and friends for an elegant seated reception. Total standing capacity of all spaces is 300 or more.

History

Mission San Luis' heritage is that of a blended community of Apalachee Indians and Spanish newcomers that lived together at the site more than 350 years ago. From 1656 to 1704, Mission San Luis served as the principal village of the Apalachees and was the Spaniards' westernmost capital.
