Beachside to Ballroom
One Day, Two Experiences at a Florida Wedding Resort
Beach or Ballroom? Both! At Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort & Spa we have a variety of indoor and outdoor facilities for your wedding ceremony and reception. Have two amazing experiences in one day — from beachside to ballroom.
Whether you’d like to have an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception, or vice versa, our Florida wedding resort has the facilities to accommodate you and your guests! Mix and match the spaces across our resort to build your perfect day.
Beachside
Ceremony
Every great Florida wedding resort has access to the beach and tons of beautiful views — like ours! Enjoy a ceremony on our beautiful white sand beach on the Gulf of Mexico. Our team can set up chairs, a pergola and whatever else you need to say your vows with your toes in the sand. Or, if you prefer, back away from the shore slightly and host your ceremony on one of our decks overlooking the water.
Reception
Our decks are also the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable wedding reception. Chose from the Sunrise, Sunset or Barefoot’s Deck — the largest of which can accommodate 800 guests. Our decks are fully equipped to host a DJ, full catering services and of course, a dance floor for your guests to dance the night away. Time your reception with the sunset and enjoy sensational views during the party.
Extra Celebrations
Are you looking to host a welcome reception for out of town guests? Our Sunset Deck is the perfect place to set up a happy hour or rehearsal dinner celebration the night before your big day! As the name suggests, it’s the perfect place to watch the sun set over the Gulf.
Ballroom
Ceremony
If you prefer an indoor ceremony, chose from our variety of ballrooms and special event space inside our Florida wedding resort. Each comes pre-outfitted with beach-inspired fixtures and textures, and can be decorated and furnished to fit your wedding theme.
Reception
Host your ceremony and reception in the same large ballroom, or separate the celebrations into two different spaces. Our team can easily transform the look and feel of our ballrooms while your guests enjoy a cocktail hour in the open, meeting space lobby area (or outside!). Our largest ballroom can accommodate 1,200 guests — perfect for a large wedding with a big dance floor, elegant dinner tables and more.
Extra Celebrations
Indulge in a delicious rehearsal dinner at Seagar’s Prime Steaks & Seafood — the area’s only AAA Four-Diamond steakhouse. Rent out a private room for your guests and enjoy an intimate celebration with loved ones.
We also have a variety of great spaces that can serve as bridal ready rooms — from our Women’s Lounge at Serenity by the sea Spa to our hospitality suites adjacent to the ballrooms.
Whether you’re looking for a beachside or ballroom experience, our Florida wedding resort has it all!
