What to know before having your wedding at Vizcaya:

• Rent a sprinter van to have on the sidelines for you and your bridal party. It allows for air conditioning, quick touchups between photos, and a quick hideaway for the couple as your guests trickle in!
• Trust your photographer to walk you through the venue when taking portraits. The popular spots aren’t necessarily the best ones. Trust us to show you some secret spots for swoon-worthy photos!
• Have a welcome drink ready as your guests arrive so they can enjoy their stroll through the garden with a refreshing beverage in hand!
• Offer heel stoppers to your guests to prevent their heels from sinking into the grass and Florida rock while strolling the venue. Think of the little things!
• Take your portraits and family photos before the ceremony, so you can take advantage of the whole property!
