Balmy breezes, tropical weather and year-round sunshine make Florida's beaches some of the world's most romantic vacation destinations. Whether you seek a secluded spot for a weekend getaway or a beautiful backdrop for a wedding or honeymoon, Florida offers every accommodation to make your stay unforgettable.

Southwest Florida in particular has an abundance of natural beauty and recreational opportunities, there is an endless array of world-class resorts, restaurants, services and facilities that cater to lovers of all ages, including those with children. Accordingly, the area has become an increasingly popular place for memorable marriages.

For example, at Lovers Key State Recreation Area, just south of Fort Myers Beach, more than 700 acres of natural habitat and 2.5 miles of beaches provide a dramatic backdrop for a unique, turn-of-the-century gazebo which is available for weddings. The stunning, open-air structure and the park's secluded Gulf-front setting, have bolstered Lovers Key's recognition as Florida's most romantic state park and made it a preferred site for outdoor weddings.
