About weddings in Miramar
Miramar is modern, corporate and entirely landlocked, running along the Miami-Dade county line out to the Everglades. Its venue is the Miramar Cultural Center, a professional performing arts complex with an indoor fine-art gallery that opens onto a botanical water garden plaza. That gallery-plus-garden layout is unusual and it photographs well. Beyond it there's the Ansin Sports Complex and hotel banquet rooms. No beach, no historic coastal estate, no yacht club. It's office parks, stucco complexes and manicured sod. A venue costs about $10,710, food is $116 a head, and an open bar adds $51. Expect $43,900 for 120 guests. Miramar has a large Caribbean and international community, and its venues are used to multicultural weddings that run long and loud. That's a real advantage if that's your family.
