Old Hollywood Style Wedding in the Heart of South Beach
Pics included. Where do I start :-) I had an elegant garden wedding reminiscent of Old Hollywood in this gorgeous Art Deco hotel built in the fifties. We shopped around a lot, and bc The Palms has so many reviews, I was almost tempted to go with them (not having found the Shelborne yet..) but my gut was not happy w their service- at all. It felt like everything I asked for came w an additional price tag or a “sorry we can’t do that.” Not to mention The Palms is not in the heart of south beach, it’s much further up, not the best walking score. Having many out of town guests, I wanted them to experience “the real south beach” Then I found the Shelborne! Mariana Hauri immediately felt like family :-) she was equally as excited to work w us as we were with her, she helped me get to a price point that I was looking for, and offered the flexibility I needed (given we were in a pandemic) I chose the oasis for a garden wedding, Had the ceremony and the reception all in the same location and it was absolutely gorgeous!! We even had spectators watching the ceremony from the beach board walk. I felt like a movie star!!! The food was EXCELLENT. The drinks yummy, and the staff was outstanding :-) this was our dream wedding! I also had an amazing wedding planner who helped me w the vision of the space. Highly recommend her as well (@details_event_planning). Overall, I couldn’t have dreamed of a better wedding in every way!Pics included.

Carlos is a rockstar
James and I had to change our wedding venue from outside of the United States, to in it, 5 months prior to our day. Still in need of a warm, destination location, I chose the Shelborne South Beach after hearing my podcast hosts describe the beautiful, art deco style of the hotel. Within moments of submitting my Wedding Wire inquiry, I received a call from Carlos. That was it. We signed a contract within the hour (never having seen the venue in person, or video). Carlos was our right-hand, from start to finish. He tended to high-maintenance family members and guests and calmed any pre-wedding nerves. Carlos was present through arrival, rehearsal and of course, the main event. Carlos connected us to our day of coordinator, Priscilla Moreno and connected us to vendors we still needed (who were all truly, the best in Miami). Throughout the remainder of our stay Carlos made us feel like celebrities at the Shelborne and gave us a vacation to remember. Carlos represents the Shelborne, but more importantly, he represents you, the couple. Your happiness is his top priority and it makes all the difference. After we got home, Carlos called me to congratulate us once again and to find a way to keep in touch. We have gained a lifelong friend in Miami. Shelborne-give Carlos a raise!James and I had to change our wedding venue from outside of the United States, to in it, 5 months prior to our day.

I had my wedding at the Shelborne South Beach 2 weeks ago. After 6 mths of planning the wedding day itself was smooth, flawless and perfect!! The venue has the Art Deco vibe I was looking for and the Oasis Garden was the perfect size and location to host the 90 guests that I had. There was plenty of room for a buffet, raw bar, 2 bars, dance floor, photo booth, cigar roller and all the other amazing elements that we had at our reception. We even had chandeliers hanging over the dance floor which looked incredible! The Shelborne catering director Carlos Velez could not have been more amazing. He is so experienced in the wedding industry in Miami and knows how to deliver exactly what you want for your special day. No matter what your vision is...Carlos will make it happen!! He knows all the best vendors and every recommendation he gave me was spot on! I had very specific requests for food and alcohol and wanted things "just right" for my guests. Carlos made sure that all of my sometimes "high maintenance" requests were granted. He went out of his way to organize a tasting for us and was always available by cell or email. He is patient and professional but also has a great sense of humor and can help even the most anxious bride feel comfortable and well taken care of.
The food at my reception (especially the raw bar) was absolutely amazing! Even the most discerning and jaded New Yorkers in the group could not stop raving about how fabulous all the food was. All of my guests who stayed at the Shelborne had a fantastic time as well. They loved hanging at the private pool cabanas and having drinks in the Drawing Room. The Shelborne staff were all so friendly and professional with all my guests and truly made them feel welcomed and important. The wedding weekend flew by so fast for me and my husband but I am so glad that we got the chance to work with Carlos and to have our celebration at the Shelborne.

We had a corporate evening event at Shelborne South Beach. I planned the event from Oklahoma and that can be a challenge. I have to say that Nzinga Brooks, our Catering Coordinator, did an outstanding job making sure that all details were covered and everything went off without a hitch. All I did was show up! Thanks to the team for making our evening such an enjoyable success!We had a corporate evening event at Shelborne South Beach. I planned the event from Oklahoma and that can be a challenge.

The Shelborne has been amazing to work with, from planning to execution, their professionalism is stellar. The hotel is brand new, located on the best blocks of South Beach, and the amenities for guests are great. The quality of the difference services offered along with their entire staff is excellent. I would recommend this venue to any future bride looking to have a wedding in South Beach.The Shelborne has been amazing to work with, from planning to execution, their professionalism is stellar.
