Years later, couples may forget a few details from the reception. They remember the walk toward each other, the vows, and the place where it all happened.
At Longan’s Place, that place is a private tropical garden beside a quiet pond and waterfall feature in Miami’s Redland. It feels far removed from a hotel ballroom. The reception is still only a short walk away on the same property.
Your ceremony should feel like the beginning of your story, not simply the start of a schedule.
01
Why a waterfall garden ceremony feels different
Moving water brings a natural calm to the ceremony. Surrounded by palms and lush greenery, the setting feels intimate even when family and friends are gathered around you.
The setting could not be picked up and recreated in a ballroom. The garden, pond, bridge, and waterfall feature are part of what guests experience when they arrive.
02
Portraits with more than one beautiful backdrop
A private garden gives your photographer plenty to work with without taking you away from your guests. Couples can take portraits beside the illuminated fountain, along palm-lined paths, on the bridge, and in the soft light of the gardens.
Your gallery can move from evening portraits by the water to warm golden-hour images, all while the celebration continues nearby.
03
From ceremony to reception in one place
After the ceremony, guests do not need to drive to another location or wait through a long gap. The celebration moves naturally from the garden to the reception space on the same private property.
Longan’s Place offers several ways to celebrate, including Ceremony Only, Petite and Micro Weddings, and full wedding packages. Depending on the option selected, packages can include reception dining, catering, coordination, seating, florals, entertainment, and other wedding-day essentials.
