We cannot say enough about the spectacular wedding weekend my daughter and now husband (as well as our families) experienced. Juan Gervasio, Event Sales Manager and Wedding Specialist, along with his team, made the weekend perfect! As the mother-of-the-bride, I worked closely with Juan during the entire planning process. His intelligence, experience, calm demeanor and warm nature made the process so enjoyable. He was always available via cell or email to answer my many questions. He gave excellent advice when needed. Juan was hands-on during the wedding day. He even ensured that my daughter and son-in-law sat down to eat dinner!! From the bellmen, to the front desk, housekeeping, food service, etc. all were amazing! The retro decor is so unique -- we loved the Crown Room where the cocktail hour was held! Our daughter and her husband said they were "treated like royalty" during their stay. The Confidante staff could not do enough for us. When you choose this venue, you will not regret it!

Due to Covid, I had to change my wedding venue location from Sevilla, Spain to Miami which is my home town. I knew that even thought we were not traveling away I wanted to keep the weekend wedding idea. I also wanted to do something that was different and out of the box. We went with the The Crown room because it was exactly that. It was the old hotel bar, so it was perfect for drinking and dancing. It also had a beautiful view, so we were able to have the dinner portion in the terrace outside overlooking the water.

From the moment we entered The Confidante we knew that this was our top choice. The hotel is beautiful in every single corner and fit my husband's and I style. We wanted elegance and glam but with a Miami vintage flair. The photos that my photographer was able to take were stunning. He had an amazing time walking us through the hotel and getting all sorts of different shots from the hotel lobby to the 1920's room. Our suite for the weekend was also breath taking and perfect for all our photos.

The staff also blew everyone out of the water. They were so accommodating for everything we wanted. Juan and his staff are the best in the industry. I planned two full weddings at this point, so I had something to compare to. They were responsive and always found a way to make anything I wanted happen. I have planned and dreamed of my wedding for years, so I knew exactly how things were supposed to go. Juan always was there to help and guide me to enhance all my ideas so that my vision would happen. The whole weekend every single staff member were there helping my guests and even my vendors. My hair and make up styling even complemented how helpful the staff was. They went our of their was to make me truly feel so special throughout the entire weekend stay.

The food was another area that was important to us. We are foodies at heart and wanted something different that wasn't just plain chicken and rice or stake and broccoli. When choosing the menu we were able to have a preliminary discussion with the chief, where we got to know us and was able to curate a menu just for us. During the tasting we had such a difficult time picking the perfect items. We ended up with a menu that we loved and had never tasted at any other wedding. It filled with elevated classics, which had a twist. Every single person found something they loved with the menu.

Overall, even though getting married at in Miami was not my original plan, it totally worked out for me. I am so happy with the choice we made. The Confidante was absolutely perfect for my wedding and it was a dream come true. ❤️

Looking for the perfect destination wedding venue - look no further! We hosted our dream wedding at The Confidante this January and it was everything we imagined and more!!

To start the event spaces are unique and allowed us to achieve the intimate vibe we were going for. We kicked off the weekend with a pig roast and cigar roller in the Carmen Miranda ballroom and terrace to give our guests a proper welcome to Miami. The next day, our ceremony and cocktail hour were held in the cozy/ vibey candle filled 1930s house, followed by dinner on the chic fully outdoor vista terrace and then took our guests down to the clubby bar Crown Room for dancing and more cocktails :) We wanted our weekend to feel like a relaxed party and with the help of the amazing Juan and his team - we were able to do so! Not to mention our guests raved about the food!

Juan was fully partnered with us on achieving our vision and offered his expertise where we needed. Some examples include - serving churros instead of wedding cake, having our ceremony in the 1930s house, setting bottles of wine on the dinner tables and serving meals family style for a relaxed dinner party experience, burning our customized candles - the list goes on, but whatever we threw Juan's way he made it happen! We had such a positive and enjoyable experience throughout the entire planning process - Thank you Juan!

The hotel is absolutely stunning and offers affordable room block rates. Many of our guests booked multiple days and made a mini vacation of the weekend so we really had ample time to catch up with everyone. We had so much fun at the pool and on the beach with our guests and decided to rent cabanas on Sunday following the wedding to keep the celebrations going!

Many of our guests said they are coming back next year because they enjoyed The Confidante so much! One person even called their daughter an offered to pay for her wedding in full if she had it at The Confidante! We are so grateful for Juan and the entire Confidante staff - we really had our dream wedding weekend!

The Confidante is a Hyatt Property so we also received Hyatt points for having an event that we are putting towards our honeymoon in France :) It also allowed our guests to use Hyatt points vs paying for their stay, enabling more guests to join us.
