When planning an outdoor wedding, the first thing you must consider is the weather and the season that you would prefer to wed. Typically outdoor weddings are most common in the spring, summer and fall seasons. However, because our estate is located in the center of sunny Fort Lauderdale, the beauty of Bonnet House Museum & Gardens can be enjoyed year-round, even in the winter time.

Deciding on the attire you feel is appropriate for your wedding is also an extremely important factor in your wedding planning. Do you want your wedding to have a casual or more formal feeling? Everything from the bride’s bouquet, to the bride’s maid’s shoes and dresses must be carefully thought out before your big day. Regardless of your choices, Bonnet House spans 35 acres and offers a variety of settings for weddings, ceremonies, receptions, and rehearsal dinners of any style and size.

Choosing the right catering services and vendors can be a challenge as well. This is why Bonnet House works with many pre-approved caterers and vendors to suit every budget and design goal. When planning your wedding, reception and rehearsal dinner, Bonnet House has made the process simple by providing a list of preferred vendors with extensive experience on the property.

Bonnet House is available for rentals during morning and evening hours, and guests have the exclusive use of the tree lined allee, outdoor terrace, veranda lawn, hibiscus garden, and inner courtyard. It is also important to note that Bonnet House does not have air-conditioned banquet halls, however an air-conditioned bridal room is available for use by the bridal party. The renting party is also responsible for all services including catering, tables, chairs, staging, etc.
