The venue also boasts a large outdoor terrace, exquisite Grand Lobby, and lush courtyards. The Lightner Museum is ideal for couples looking for a unique, historic St. Augustine wedding venue.

A dream wedding venue
The Lightner Museum was an absolutely STUNNING place to hold our wedding. It’s been almost three weeks and guests are still raving about the atmosphere! I will say there are a lot of costs and permits associated with this particular venue but it was SO worth it in the end! If you’re looking for a historic vibe with unbelievable ambiance, this is the venue for you!
Florida Fairytale Venue
Working with the Lightner was a fantastic experience. If you want a seamless planning process and a classy wedding, I suggest you book ASAP!
