Weddings at Mr. C Miami
The quintessential “Mr. C Miami couple” is stylish, worldly, and wants to give their guests a true destination wedding experience in the heart of South Florida.

In fact, the boutique property stands apart from the rest as an idyllic wedding venue for creating a luxury bubble of “pure tropical seclusion.” Couples and their loved ones will feel as if they’ve stepped in to a world of their own.
With a boutique hotel setting, the flow of the wedding day is even more important. Transitioning guests smoothly between the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception – and choosing the perfect location for each event – will keep guests engaged while ensuring the evening unfolds seamlessly. Jaime recommends Il Giardino for hosting wedding ceremonies at Mr. C Miami, as the lush green foliage creates a luxurious, hidden garden oasis for exchanging vows.
“After the wedding ceremony,” he advises, “your guests will have the opportunity to gather in the foyer for a delightful aperitif at the Bellini bar. As they sip their drinks, they will be treated to awe-inspiring views of Miami’s stunning Biscayne Bay, creating a truly enchanting atmosphere.
“To continue the celebration of love, the festivities will move to the starlight ballroom for a lively afterparty. With its buzzing energy and vibrant ambiance, the ballroom will be the perfect setting for guests to dance and revel in the joyous occasion. The starlight ballroom offers a wonderful combination of elegant moments and lively festivities where you and your guests are sure to have an unforgettable experience celebrating your love.”
With its breathtaking views and traditional European details, a ballroom reception at Mr. C Miami is the perfect amalgam of Italian-style romance and South Floridian style. Aside from the wedding day itself, Jaime notes that couples enjoy using the starlight ballroom to host glamorous rehearsal dinners and post-wedding brunches.
“Featuring sweeping views of Coconut Grove and Biscayne Bay, the starlight ballroom offers indoor and outdoor seating that exudes the intimate, timeless atmosphere of Italy’s Amalfi Coast while embracing a sleek and soothing Miami modern style,” he describes. “For a more intimate setting for rehearsal dinners and post-wedding brunches, we recommend our hidden oasis, Il Giardino.
