About this venue

Southernmost Beach Resort is a wedding venue nestled right in the historic Old Town area of Key West, Florida. The resort features a total of six acres on the island, which makes couples and guests feel as if they are in a secluded tropical paradise. Even though couples will get to experience an exclusive feel during their stay, they will also get to experience the convenience of being near many boutique shops, art galleries, and restaurants.

Facilities and Capacity
The Southernmost Beach Resort offers couples the opportunity to host their ceremony in a covered outdoor or uncovered outdoor setting. During the ceremony and reception here at the resort, couples and their guests will have the Atlantic Ocean as their backdrop. The actual resort melds in perfectly with the ocean surroundings, having been fashioned with classic Key West architecture. Scattered throughout the property, invitees will find hammocks and gardens where they can relax and take in the scenic ocean views surrounding them. Couples are also able to host their wedding shower, engagement party, and cocktail reception at this romantic beach resort. On the big day, it can easily accommodate up to 200 friends and family. Accommodations can also be arranged for both couples and guests in the 261 rooms on the property. Group blocks are available so that the wedding party can easily arrange their stay. With plenty of beaches, pools, and amenities to choose from, both couples and guests will have a relaxing and memorable stay.

Services Offered
To help make each wedding planning in paradise stress-free, the team at the Southernmost Beach Resort offers couples assistance with both setup before their wedding begins and clean up after it ends. Barware, flatware, glassware, and linens can be provided by the venue for meal and drinks services. A designated personal wedding coordinator will help couples plan and carry out their dream ceremony and reception.

Wedding at SOMO

We truly could not have imagined a more perfect place to have our wedding than the Southernmost Beach Resort. Every single detail was absolutely beautiful, and the entire day came to life even better than we ever dreamed. From the stunning views to the atmosphere, everything about this venue was pure perfection.

Jena Rose was absolutely AMAZING throughout the entire process. She made everything feel seamless, organized, and stress-free, and truly brought our vision to life. Her attention to detail, communication, and care made us feel so special every step of the way.

If you are wondering where to have a wedding in Key West it should absolutely be at the Southernmost Beach Resort. It was the most magical experience and a day we will never forget!

The Best Wedding Venue in Key West

When choosing a venue, my daughter and her fiancé had the option to have their wedding at many places on Key West. We are overjoyed that the Bride and Groom chose Southernmost Beach Resort. As a mom, I helped in a lot of the planning and Jena Rose made every step fun and easy. The venue is right on the water and their ceremony backdrop was a sunset on the ocean. It was stunning. Southernmost took care of all the catering and all of our 85 guests raved that it was the best steak and fish they had eaten in a long time. The reception was on their South Beach under a tent lined with lights. It was magical. The guests danced all night and when they were not dancing they were hanging out by the oceans edge in the beautiful breeze. Southernmost set up a smore's station that all the guests could not get enough of! We also had the rehearsal dinner on the West Lawn followed by a welcome reception for out of town guests. Again the food was awesome. Some people saying the sliders and fish tacos were the best they ate their whole stay. We followed the wedding reception with a Farewell breakfast on the beach the following day with a buffet full of the yummiest breakfast foods. The chef took extra care to honor all allergies and intolerances. The communication with Jena Rose along the way was constant and through. She made the planning easy and always was there to answer any and all the questions I had. If you are considering a Key West destination wedding I would HIGHLY recommend Southernmost. It goes down as the best vacation and event we all have ever planned.

Beautiful and serene

We got married October 30 on the Southernmost beach and it was beautiful. Granted our original venue on the resort got damaged due to hurricane Ian l, the staff was accommodating in getting us a new location without any issues. The food was spectacular and we continue to get compliments on it, the bar staff was fun and friendly, and I was able to watch the setup from my room which was a huge bonus! We couldn't have asked for more on our wedding day, our expectations were blown out of the water here.

Stunning Wedding!

My husband and I got married at The Southernmost Beach Resort on March 4, and it was the most perfect day! The resort offers a beautiful setting, beachfront sunset ceremony. We utilized the conference room as the bridal suite which allowed us to have hair and makeup services with plenty of space. Additionally, our ocean front suite was breathtaking! All of our guests were so happy- the food was delicious, Fernando and the bar team went above and beyond, and we couldn’t have been more satisfied with our experience!

She was able to accommodate my every request and tended to all of our needs throughout the entire process , from the moment we booked up thru our wedding day.
BRAVO Southernmost! You were beyond my imagined experience.

Beautiful venue!

JenaRose made everything so easy! We had a beautiful room and great service. The only fallback was that our room was not ready at check in time (but was maybe an hour or so late) which cut into some planned events (a tiny bit) but other than that it was perfect.

We had the most amazing, beautiful wedding at this resort.

Don't hesitate to use this resort for your wedding. The team is amazing, the property has so many options for a beautiful wedding. I planned our wedding in five weeks. No planner and was rescheduling a Hawaii wedding due to COVID. It turned out so fantastic. Zero regrets!! So grateful and blessed!

Beautiful and accomodating

We're so happy we chose to have our wedding at the Southernmost. The atmosphere is fun, relaxed, and it's right on the water with its own private beach. We had our ceremony on a separate small sandy area, which was perfect for the amount of guests we had (55), and it was more private. The staff were accommodating, we never had an issue. The bar staff were fun and engaging. The food, amazing!!! We ended up choosing the pig roast, and everything was delicious from the appetizers to the meal. Everything about our wedding at the Southernmost was everything we imagined and more. Now we will stay there every time we go and visit since it has a special place in our hearts!

Wedding Venue

Picking out a Venue for your destination wedding without doing it in person is a big deal! We got engaged in Oct 2018 and I started researching the next month. I feel in love with Southernmost Beach Resort, it has so much charm! They have a Private Beach on site that is where we had our ceremony and our reception was held on the public beach, sitting next door to The Southernmost's Beach Cafe. I based my pick solely on pictures and the fact that both ceremony & reception would be held on the beach - which is what we wanted. We had 64 ppl total, including us. The resort itself is located in or near Old Towne Key West and that reflects in the architecture. When we checked in, we had a bottle of champagne, a charcuterie board & a thank you note from the resort, thanking us for choosing them for our wedding & stay! What a nice touch! The staff & bartenders were amazing during our stay! I booked Southernmost by February 2019 and immediately started working with JenaRose, who answered all my questions promptly and helped me with decisions, for the ceremony, cocktail hour & reception details. We got married on February 22nd, 2020 at Southernmost and it was beautiful! My research paid off and I truly enjoyed my wedding! I'm so happy I picked this resort for our big day! Also, we ate at the Cafe multi times on our stay in KW, the food was top notch! Thank you, Riki & Tyler
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I just photographed my first wedding at Southernmost on the Beach and I have to say they did an amazing job with every part of this destination wedding, from beautiful details to wonderful food! The location could not be more beautiful and the staff is super friendly, helpful and efficient. I am really looking forward to my next wedding coming up soon at the Southernmost On the Beach.
