Event Venues in Key West, FL

The Key West Garden Club at West Martello is a nonprofit-operated tropical garden and event venue at 1100 Atlantic Boulevard beside Higgs Beach. The official venue page says it accommodates events of up to 100 guests and offers ceremony settings near the sea, tropical foliage, or a water feature. The garden remains public during normal daytime hours; larger private events occur after closing.

Southernmost House is an adults-only historic oceanfront hotel and small-event venue at 1400 Duval Street. Its current special-events page limits weddings and intimate events to 25 people and says outside catering is not accepted. The 1897 mansion, tropical grounds, Atlantic setting, on-site café, rooms, and south-Duval location make it a focused micro-wedding option rather than a large reception venue.

The Truman Little White House is a presidential museum and private-event venue at 111 Front Street inside Key West's Truman Annex. Its three lawns can support ceremonies, dinners, and receptions in a historic garden setting close to Old Town. The official venue material describes evening garden rentals as site-only: catering, rentals, tenting, entertainment, cleanup, and other vendors must be arranged separately.

Fort Zachary Taylor Beach Weddings operates ceremony reservations within Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park at 601 Howard England Way. Current published rules distinguish parties of six or fewer from groups of seven or more, require larger parties to reserve a site, and limit reserved ceremonies to a two-hour window that includes setup and breakdown.

Oceans Edge Resort & Marina is a Stock Island waterfront resort at 5950 Peninsular Avenue offering guest rooms, marina surroundings, six pools, on-site dining, wedding spaces, catering, planning support, preferred vendors, and room blocks. It is strongest for couples who want the wedding weekend concentrated at one resort and accept transportation to Old Town.

Family Affair is a Key West wedding and event-planning company at 9 Aster Terrace. Its published service mix includes full planning, island planning, day-of planning and day-of coordination, with optional vendor coordination across photography, music, flowers, beauty, officiating, catering and rentals. WeddingWire lists 4.9/5 from 129 reviews and a 98% recommendation rate. The inspected 2025-2026 narratives are notably positive about responsiveness, organization, destination-wedding guidance and on-site problem solving, but they do not provide a balanced negative sample. Treat the strong review pattern as useful evidence of fit, not as a guarantee, and verify current package scope and terms before paying a deposit.
