Omni Resort & Spa

Close your eyes and imagine a wedding where the Atlantic’s gentle waves harmonize with your vows, and ancient oaks draped in Spanish moss frame your first dance. Omni Amelia Island Resort & Spa, sprawled across 1,350 acres at 39 Beach Lagoon Rd, Fernandina Beach, FL 32034, is more than a venue—it’s a love-soaked escape on Florida’s northeastern coast. Just a 12-minute drive from historic Fernandina Beach and 29 miles from Jacksonville International Airport, this oceanfront haven blends Southern warmth with coastal grandeur. With a team that treats your wedding like a masterpiece, your big day becomes a melody of moments you’ll replay forever.

The resort’s 50,000 square feet of event spaces are your canvas for romance. Picture the Oceanfront Lawn, a 10,000-square-foot stretch of beachfront for up to 500, where you exchange vows with sand underfoot and the sea as your witness. For Southern elegance, the Oak Point Lawn, shaded by mossy oaks along the Intracoastal Waterway, hosts 300 with a fairy-tale glow. The Magnolia Ballroom, a 16,800-square-foot marvel, welcomes 1,200 for a grand gala, its chandeliers sparkling over your reception. Smaller gatherings thrive in the Amelia Plantation Chapel, a 1,200-square-foot interdenominational gem for 100, or the Sprouting Project, a 2,000-square-foot garden with a greenhouse for intimate farm-to-table dinners. The culinary team at Natural Slice or Oceanside crafts menus that sing—think Lowcountry shrimp and grits or vegan roasted cauliflower steaks—paired with local craft beers or bespoke cocktails. Your planner weaves it all together, from linens to live music, so you can savor every second.

Your guests settle into 402 rooms and suites, each a coastal retreat with private balconies framing ocean or marsh views. Oceanfront suites, with plush bedding and soaking tubs, are perfect for your wedding night. The complimentary breakfast buffet—loaded with omelets, fresh pastries, and fruit—gets everyone fueled, while three pools (including an adults-only infinity pool and a family splash pad) and 3.5 miles of private beach keep the vibes high. The Spa at Omni offers sea-inspired massages, and two championship golf courses, plus tennis and pickleball courts, keep active guests happy. Pet-friendly rooms let your pup join the fun, and group blocks with discounts ensure your crew’s comfy. Free bike rentals and a shuttle to Fernandina Beach add easy exploration.

What makes Omni Amelia Island a wedding gem is its blend of nature and polish. The concierge can arrange kayak trips through marshlands or group visits to Fort Clinch State Park, 6 miles away, for a dose of history. Accessibility’s seamless—wheelchair paths, braille signage, and staff trained for inclusivity ensure everyone’s part of the joy. Guests rave about the pristine beach, attentive staff (shout-outs to planners like Miranda), and food that steals the show, though some note resort fees ($25/day) for extras like parking. From the Walker’s Landing sunset views to the Sprouting Project’s garden charm, this resort wraps your wedding in Amelia Island’s soul, making it a day that lingers like a perfect coastal dawn.
