Megan & Kyle’s Margaritaville Resort Wedding Weekend

Megan and Kyle’s wedding weekend at Margaritaville Resort in Hollywood, Florida was an immersive two-day celebration set against the vibrant backdrop of South Florida. Their destination wedding brought together sunshine, coastal elegance, and a thoughtfully designed experience for their closest friends and family.

Rehearsal & Welcome Night

The weekend began with a rehearsal and welcome night at the resort, giving guests time to gather and celebrate ahead of the wedding day. Surrounded by palm trees and ocean air, the atmosphere carried a subtle Jimmy Buffett–inspired energy — joyful, beach-forward, and full of warmth — setting the tone for the days to come.

The Wedding Day at Margaritaville Resort

On the wedding day, Margaritaville Resort provided a stunning setting for a South Florida beach wedding. Natural light, tropical surroundings, and ocean breezes created a beautiful environment as Megan and Kyle experienced each moment together. Carefully chosen details and custom design elements reflected their style and complemented the coastal setting, creating a celebration that felt elevated and deeply personal.

Pool Deck Cocktail Hour & Ballroom Reception

Cocktail hour on the pool deck was a standout moment, with guests gathering for drinks as the sun lowered over the resort, seamlessly transitioning from ceremony to reception. The celebration continued inside the ballroom, where heartfelt toasts, dinner, and an unforgettable dance floor carried the energy well into the night.

Thoughtful Details Throughout the Weekend

Throughout the weekend, Megan and Kyle incorporated so many fun, custom details that made their wedding feel uniquely theirs. From the welcome events to the final song of the reception, every element was intentional, creating an experience their guests will remember long after the celebration ended.
