"Truly the best day of our lives so far.

My husband and I were just married at the Lightner Museum and it was truly the best day of our lives so far. Not only is the outside architecture stunning, but the exhibits and overall vibe of the Museum gives it that "wow" factor for your wedding! I could write so much more about how we loved doing our ceremony inside on a hot Florida evening, or how much we loved doing Cocktail Hour in the ornate and beautiful Grand Lobby, or how the wedding parties loved hanging out in the Suites–but just know that Lightner Museum is a PERFECT wedding venue, and the staff will take such good care of you!!!!

"The Lightner Museum is a magical venue.

This museum has been around since 1888 and is filled with both history and charm. The team at the Lightner Museum went above and beyond to make our wedding perfect! Katie especially did everything she could to ensure everything ran smoothly! The museum has stunning views of St. Augustine from its terrace, making it a perfect setting for any wedding ceremony and/or reception. Additionally, the museum is conveniently located next to some popular attractions like the Castillo de San Marcos fort, giving guests plenty of things to do before and after the big event!

“We had a perfect day, free of worries.

I can't even express how easy and enjoyable the Lightner team made this experience for us! We chose the Intimate Wedding Package as our guest list wasn't extensive, and it was so extremely convenient to have trusted vendors included already. It completely took away the headache of finding them one by one (we only had to book our flowers and photographer). I wouldn't have changed a thing! Saint Augustine was always our choice, and the Treasury Collection Venues were the only ones we visited while looking for a venue because after leaving our Lightner tour, we were 100% sure there was no better place for our wedding.

"I loved this venue from the minute I laid eyes on it.

Our wedding was everything we could have imagined and more. Each person we worked with was communicative, up-front, professional, kind, knowledgeable, engaged, and fun to work with. The Lightner is beautiful in itself, but you have the freedom to completely transform the space to your liking (or leaving it simply as is). Our cocktail hour was held in the Grand Lobby, while our ceremony and reception were in the Historic Pool. I was so impressed with how the team quickly and efficiently transformed the space while our guests were at cocktail hour. Your guests will never forget this venue!!!

Colette & Kevin

“This venue was perfect!

Hands down the best decision that my wife and I made was choosing the Lightner Museum as our wedding venue. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and our guests were blown away at how beautiful the venue was. I still can't believe how professional the team at the Lightner Museum was. There was never a point during the wedding day where my wife and I were stressed about anything. Thanks to our event manager Katie, we knew they had everything completely under control. We can't thank you enough!
