Lightner Museum Overview

Formerly the Alcazar Hotel, the Lightner Museum continues the tradition of providing unique spaces for weddings and events. The Lightner Museum was built in 1888 as an entertainment center for the luxurious Ponce de Leon Hotel. Now, the Historic Pool and Mezzanine can accommodate sit down dinners, receptions, dancing, and a variety of entertainment for up to 250 guests. The Grand Lobby, with its exquisite crystal chandeliers and natural light streaming in from lush courtyards, is another fantastic alternative for wedding ceremonies and pre-reception cocktails. For an incomparable experience in a world-class setting that has hosted A-list celebrations for over 125 years, choose the Lightner Museum for your St. Augustine wedding venue. *Note: WeddingSpot Price Estimates do not accurately reflect pricing at the Lightner Museum.
