South Florida doesn't really do the garden-estate thing; it does water. Four of these nine venues are restaurants or resorts where the ceremony is the opening act for dinner, and that's a strength — at 25 guests, a great private room on the Intracoastal beats a rented hall and a catering truck almost every time. The number to ask for here isn't a rental fee; it's the food-and-beverage minimum, and the venue pages tell you so.
Three I'd flag out of the nine. Little Rose Chapel in Miami prices by the seat — $777 for two up to $2,222 for 22 — and is the region's best structured offer for a chapel wedding. Casa Grandview's $1,499 inn elopement in West Palm Beach is the most complete just-us package in the whole guide. And the Hemingway Home in Key West starts at $1,100, which buys you a garden no amount of décor money can imitate.
Two regional habits to be ready for: resort prices carry a “++” (tax and service on top — the Hyatt Key West's packages are the example), and one listing, Acqualina, comes with a printed caveat because its offer page is dated 2020. I left it in because the page is live on the resort's site; the venue's own page in this guide tells you to confirm before you dream.
