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 and Capacity
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. Classrooms 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 150 to 250 family and friends for an elegant reception. Total 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.
