12 Jan Blooming Backdrops for the Blushing Bride: Top 3 Spring 2022 Venues in Florida

You’ve already been dreaming about your up-and-coming wedding for months, and now it is finally, finally time to book a venue.

That being said, with planning a wedding comes the inevitable: decision fatigue.

Thus, if you’re searching for the blooming bridal setting of your spring-scheduled wedding, we’ve come to narrow down your selection and propose some options to you:

Marie Selby Botanical Gardens

Located in sunny Sarasota, the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens offer a seamless blend of waterfront luxury and lush landscapes. After all, what spring wedding is complete without a deluge of florals?

Here, banyans, oaks, palms, and all other manner of native foliage within the gardens offer couples a wedding setting replete in both sunshine and comfortable shade.

The botanical gardens offer both indoor and outdoor spaces, thereby accommodating wedding parties and ceremonies of varying sizes.  Additionally, having been established in 1975, this campus “boasts an archaeological record that encompasses approximately 5,000 years of Florida prehistory.” Thus, local charm is inherently infused in the venue!

The Secret Garden

Whether you’re searching for a full-sized wedding ceremony or an intimate garden for your elopement, the Secret Garden provides a unique 24-acre lakeside beauty for any and all vows. Found in Longwood — not far from downtown Orlando — this venue is perfectly situated in the middle of the state for families whose extended members live on different Floridian coasts!

What’s more, should rainy days impede your event, the Secret Garden offers a covered patio area under which you can keep the party going. Depending on the chosen package, silk flowers are also available for bride and groom use, as well as dressing rooms, a professional photographer, and more.

In all, the Secret Garden is the perfect springtime getaway for the blooming bride-to-be.

Sunset Key Cottages

The best part of the spring season? The temperate weather, which is neither too hot or too cold for any given event. Thus, if you’re looking for a tropical getaway that won’t take you too far from the comfort of the Sunshine State itself, the Sunset Key Cottages in Key West provides this and more. Boasting three Victorian-style cottages, 27 acres in total, and countless exotic flowers near the beach, this venue offers the best for formal and casual ceremonies alike!

Whether you want to wed with an indoor view, outdoors on the beach itself, or while coasting the cerulean waves on your own catamaran, the Sunset Key Cottages can accommodate you.

But before the venue, of course, comes the rings!
