Orlando Weddings
Your Orlando Destination Wedding
Your guests live in seven different states. Half of them hate connecting flights. A few have kids who'd revolt if they couldn't see Mickey Mouse. You want a beautiful Florida wedding without forcing everyone to navigate obscure airports and two-hour drives. Welcome to Orlando—where "destination wedding" meets "actually convenient for everyone."
Orlando might be 60 miles from the nearest beach, but it's earned its place on our destination list for one simple reason: it's the most convenient wedding destination in Florida for guests flying in from anywhere in the country.
With the highest concentration of hotels, restaurants, and activities of any Florida destination—plus two major airports with direct flights from virtually everywhere—Orlando offers logistical ease that beach destinations simply can't match. And while you won't have ocean waves, you will have lakeside beauty, botanical gardens, and tropical resorts.
"We had 55 guests from all over the country. Orlando made it easy—everyone found cheap direct flights, the hotel had something for everyone, and we did our ceremony at Cocoa Beach (just an hour away) before coming back for the reception. Best decision we made."
— Emily & Michael, October 2025
