South Miami Ballroom, Meeting Room, and Tropical Garden

South Miami/Coral Gables Elks Lodge offers a flexible combination of indoor and outdoor event spaces for weddings, celebrations, meetings, fundraisers, classes, and community gatherings. The main Florida Ballroom accommodates up to 280 guests and includes a stage, dance-floor space, an attached bar, air conditioning, tables, chairs, and access to a full kitchen. A separate meeting room provides a more intimate setup for groups of up to 75, with room for classroom seating, training sessions, luncheons, cocktail events, and presentations. The tropical backyard garden creates an additional setting for ceremonies, receptions, and evening gatherings, while the ballroom provides a practical weather backup.

The venue is designed for hosts who want several usable areas in one location. Tables and chairs can be arranged in the requested layout, and the property offers catering support, linens, dishes, utensils, serving personnel, ice service, and an on-site rental manager when included in the selected package. Ample complimentary parking helps simplify guest arrival, and the combination of ballroom, meeting room, kitchen, bar, stage, and garden allows an event to move naturally between formal dining, presentations, dancing, and outdoor social time. Its South Miami location is convenient for guests traveling from Coral Gables, Pinecrest, Coconut Grove, Kendall, and surrounding Miami-Dade neighborhoods. The venue can support both large celebrations and smaller business or educational gatherings without requiring every activity to take place in the same room. The straightforward rental structure also gives outside vendors time to decorate and prepare before guests arrive, making it practical for customized layouts, entertainment, and catering plans. Hosts can keep a smaller activity separate from the ballroom or use the garden as a distinct ceremony and cocktail area.
