Sure, St. Augustine is known for its rich, opulent history and unique architecture, but let’s be real – the city’s spectacular sandy beaches are the real draw. Bright, smooth sand, picturesque dunes, and, of course, the wild Atlantic Ocean all make St. Augustine an incredible beach destination and the perfect place for a beach wedding! Here are some of the best St. Augustine beach wedding venues to consider for your oceanfront vows!

Guy Harvey Resort doesn’t just get you near the beach – it puts you right on the beach! Just pass through their dune gazebo, and you’ll find yourself with your toes in the sand, looking out at the Atlantic Ocean. You can choose to host your ceremony directly on the beach with the sound of the waves crashing against the shore and then spend the rest of the evening dining and dancing in one of the resort’s beautiful coastal-inspired ballrooms!
