Love Story: Dare to Dream Big


Faena Forum, an OMA-designed architectural gem with a centerpiece oculus and a stunning rose marble amphitheater, has played host to Miami's most exclusive weddings, no two alike.

Bride & Groom at Faena Forum

Hundreds of geometric windows bathe the monumental space in natural light, while floor-to-ceiling windows frame pastel-streaked sunsets over Indian Creek. For couples and wedding planners, the Forum’s sprawling 43,000-square-foot interiors are like a blank canvas where imagination is the only limit. Whether the event is a micro-wedding or a 500-guest celebration, Faena’s team of event planners make one of the most important moments of a couple’s love story something of a fairytale.“There is never too grand an ask for us,” says Ashly Olivier, Director of Catering.

“The Forum’s multidimensional space offers maximum versatility. We have the ability to be flexible with design and desires.”

The Forum has been draped in hanging botanicals, breathtaking flower-laden altars, and vibrant florals brightening the entire room. Twinkling lights and soft-glowing candles set a dreamy stage for couples as they exchanged vows in front of their nearest and dearest. “After a private ceremony, friends and family enjoy craft cocktails and hors d’oeuvres in the intimate amphitheater before heading back upstairs to dine and dance all night.

“We have the capacity for an 11-piece band and a DJ,” says Olivier. There’s also on-site catering, projection options, a high-tech sound system, as well as a recessed stage and private green room. Photographers love shooting from the Forum’s observation deck, which offers a panoramic view of the couple’s grand entrance and the party as it ensues.

“We ensure no detail is overlooked, so the bride and groom can relax and enjoy their storybook wedding come to life.”

Where Fire and Flavor Ignite

"What makes Los Fuegos truly extraordinary is our commitment to the ancient art of cooking with fire,” explained Yassine Belkady, the restaurant’s manager. “We use no electricity whatsoever—just fire, wood ovens, and tradition” Everything has that distinctive char, those bold, nearly burnt flavors that taste almost primal. “When you dine here, you can literally smell the wood and rosemary in the air,” he added. The restaurant’s setting matches its culinary panache. By day, the veranda transforms into an airy ambience when its retractable roof opens to Miami’s brilliant skies. Guests enjoy lunch while overlooking the property’s stunning pool, creating what Belkady called “a completely different experience than any other hotel or restaurant in Miami.” 

Beneath the Tree of Life

Mornings here unfold slowly while guests sip on fresh-pressed juices—like the South Beach, a tropical elixir of coconut water, local citrus, mango, and strawberry, or a vitamin-rich Green Juice packed with spinach, kale, ginger, cucumber, celery and green apple. “The tranquility makes it really special,” noted Joshua Rodriguez, Director of Nightlife. “It’s a place where guests can grab a coffee, a light bite and relax or catch up on some emails.” A menu of delicious appetizers is great for snacking throughout the day, including crispy artichokes with sesame yogurt and sourdough breadcrumbs; prime rib empanadas with llajua sauce; and a vegan option of steamed veggie rice with sweet potato and broccoli. Come golden hour, the energy shifts. On weekends from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm, resident DJs set the mood as the bar transitions into a laidback sundowner haunt. The CopaCabana cocktail, a tropical indulgence of banana and apricot liqueur, coconut cream, allspice, and Bulleit Rye, is a guest favorite. “People order it because it’s served in a Faena-branded coconut, but it’s the taste that makes them request another one,” said Rodriguez.
