Our wedding at B Ocean was truly beyond words—absolutely perfect from start to finish. The venue is breathtaking, and the service is unmatched. We couldn’t have asked for a more magical setting or a more seamless experience. Sara was an absolute dream to work with! From our very first conversation, she made us feel at ease. Her professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail ensured every part of our day went off flawlessly. She truly cares about her couples and it shows in everything she does. We genuinely looked forward to each interaction with her and already miss working together! The entire B Ocean staff was exceptional—friendly, attentive, and so accommodating. Our guests are still talking about how stunning the venue was and how well they were treated. We 100% recommend having your wedding at B Ocean. It was the best decision we made and gave us memories we’ll cherish forever.

When we reserved our initial room block, we could not have anticipated the number of guests who would decide to stay the weekend in Fort Lauderdale (most guests lived about 45 mins away). The event coordinator was extremely flexible and worked with me as we incrementally increased the number of rooms. Wedding guests enjoyed spending time in the cozy lobby together and all complimented the rooms and kindness of staff.

Celebrations can be anxious ridden especially wedding related celebrations, but not if you have Sabrina Soler coordinating your event. The hotel is in a great location being right across the street from the beach and a short walk down from lively entertainment, bars & restaurants. I was a bit nervous about the valet situation for our guests (which BTW valet for guests is included with the package) and it worked out just fine. The valet staff does a great job at dealing with how busy it is down there. Our ceremony & reception was to take place on the Sky Terrace during a rainy weekend. Sabrina stayed in touch with me every step of the way and suggested moving the reception to a ballroom. We are so glad to have taken her advice because the heat & humidity were awful after the rain. The last minute change came with a need for chair covers and Sabrina once again came to the rescue by personally going to pick up the covers. The entire hotel staff and all of the people that worked the ceremony were top-notch and we are so grateful for all of their help in ensuring our ceremony was unforgettable. Thank you to all and very special heartfelt thank you to Sabrina

My husband and I got married a month ago at this beautiful beach front venue to host our destination wedding. Everything was perfect! We booked a year ago for our wedding and we were immediately impressed by the professionalism and accessibility of their Senior Catering Sales Executive Arlene who knew every detail of the venue and how to accommodate a package to fit the planning of an intimate event. She went the extra mile to understand our vision and worked diligently to get things done. Arlene played an important role in the success of our selection of the W to host the perfect destination wedding. Our Event Manager Balice did a fantastic job making sure every detail happened according to plan. She was always very helpful and provided guidance on any questions that we had. Balice went above and beyond, and on the day off executed the event flawlessly. Thank you for accommodating room block for all our out-of-town guests. They were blown away by the entire experience. The W preferred vendor list is great, everyone we selected was professional, accommodating, easy to work with, and they did a wonderful job (EPIC Flowers Design, Sweet Guilt, Marz Makeup & Hair, and Elements & Accents Event Rentals (Le Grande Affairs Inc.). The catering was incredible, and our guests are still talking about how amazing the food was. Thank you so much to Xaiver (aka Javi), Banquet Captain and his entire team for providing an exceptional service. We want to thank the entire W Fort Lauderdale team for making our wedding weekend the most memorable by providing an outstanding service with our Welcome Reception, Wedding Ceremony and Reception. A special thanks to Arlene, Balice, Xaiver and everyone that contributed for making our entire weekend amazingly special! We couldn’t pick a better venue that best aligned with our vision to celebrate a beautiful love story with family and friends. THANK YOU!

My husband and I visited over ten wedding venues, from north to south Florida, before deciding on the Riverside Hotel as our destination wedding venue. Loma, the Director of Catering Sales, gave us the tour and we were very pleased with her presentation on what they offered. Loma was also the perfect person to coordinate with our wedding planner Gina, to ensure a seamless execution. She was incredible throughout, with making suggestions, ensuring we stuck to our timeline, and helping to make our wedding day extra special. Although we were unable to see the guest rooms during visits to the Riverside, everything turned out well. We didn’t realize that a little extra patience would come in handy, and thus, were surprised when the rooms were more beautiful in person than imagined. The bridal suite itself was magnificent, showcasing such modern finishes and breathtaking views. Our wedding guests were equally pleased with their accommodations. Our wedding day turned out to be exactly what we had envisioned. The setup for the ceremony (located on the River Patio) the cocktail hour (on the Skyline Terrace) and the reception (in the Himmarshee Ballroom) were exquisite, with breathtaking views each offering a bit of individual charm and character to our wedding. If we could go back in time, we would find our way back to the Riverside Hotel and do it all again. Our experience from beginning to end was worth it. Thank you so much Loma and the entire Riverside team for helping to make our day a success. My husband and I can’t stop reminiscing about our wedding and our guests continue complimenting us on what a beautiful wedding it was.

Working with the Harbor Beach Marriott was a wonderful experience, from start to finish. My husband and I live in New York, and planned our Florida wedding from out of state. When we first started our wedding planning process, we were put in contact and met with Deborah Colip, a senior catering sales executive at the hotel. Deborah was so kind, patient, and answered all of our questions. Once we booked, we began working with Taylor Cantrell, a senior event manager at the Marriott. There are not enough words to describe how phenomenal Taylor was to work with. Taylor was so incredibly helpful and our entire wedding weekend would not have been as successful and as wonderful as it was without her involvement. She answered all of our questions in the months leading up to our wedding, even taking time to speak with us on weekends as we got closer to our wedding date. She was positive, upbeat, and kept my husband and I calm and reassured. It was evident that Taylor was a seasoned pro, and knew the ins and outs of planning a wonderful event at the Marriott. We trusted Taylor's judgment along the way, and she always steered us in the right direction. The food was also phenomenal, and we received positive feedback from all of our wedding guests about our wedding entrees, late night food, and cocktail hour food. The property itself is also beautiful and relaxing. There just are not enough positive things to say about the Harbor Beach Marriott and its employees. Our wedding weekend was perfect thanks to everyone at the Marriott who helped us along the way!

All I can say about the Conrad is wow… 12 out of 10 stars. From the moment we first toured the Conrad as a potential wedding venue, we were blown away by the professionalism and hospitality of the entire staff - from the valet to the event team. First impressions are everything, especially at a wedding, and the Conrad FAR exceeded the standards we saw at any other venue. Their entire team is extremely detail-oriented, highly communicative, and highly knowledgeable about event flow and guest experience. I felt like this took a HUGE weight off my shoulders as the bride because I knew that they had such a high standard of excellence as a brand and team that they’d make sure to execute a perfect event - and they did. We worked with Ally, and Tara who all made us feel so confident and reassured throughout the planning process and made sure the entire Conrad team knew how to bring our dream wedding to life. Our wedding guests gave us SO many compliments on the food (which was really important to us), the attentiveness of the staff, and the cocktails - which are handcrafted by the Conrad’s team member Francisco who is beyond talented and nailed our perfect signature drinks. The Conrad team has worked together for decades (which says a lot!) so I had a lot of comfort knowing they all knew how to operate as a single unit and create a seamless experience for us and our guests. I’ve never met a kinder staff (our guests even said they were blown away by the warmth and sincerity of everyone at the hotel), and they all made me and my husband feel like celebrities the entire wedding weekend. It was so special. Also, the rooms are so clean and gorgeous - all of our guests that stayed in our room block raved about their experience. For anyone planning a wedding or other big event, the Conrad will not only be the most beautiful venue in Fort Lauderdale, but the team will make your life SO easy and stress-free. If I had to plan another wedding, I would choose the Conrad again and again. Thank you Ally, Tara, and Francisco for caring so much about us, our guests, and our event. Your dedication to giving us the best experience is truly unmatched!!

Our experience at Pelican Beach Resort was absolutely outstanding, and I would recommend this resort without hesitation. My daughter Fabienne’s wedding would not have been the same without Pelican Beach Resort. From the moment we began planning until the end of our three-day celebration, the entire team helped make our vision come to life. One of the highlights was renting the Sky View Suite, with its incredible 1,000-square-foot balcony and breathtaking ocean views.. The setting was simply spectacular. A special thank you goes to Janira and Tameika. They were truly unbelievable. Their professionalism, kindness, attention to detail, and genuine desire to make everything perfect exceeded all expectations. They made us feel supported every step of the way and treated our family as if we were their own guests. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but Janira and Tameika helped make the entire experience enjoyable and memorable. Their dedication and exceptional customer service played a major role in making this one of the happiest weekends of our lives. Thank you, Pelican Beach Resort, for helping create memories that our family will cherish forever. We are so grateful that we chose your beautiful resort for Fabienne and Ray’s wedding celebration. — Fayolle Genova
