Where Do You Actually Want to Get Married?
A straightforward guide to elopement and intimate wedding locations in Delray Beach and Boynton Beach — including what you’ll need to know about permits before you show up.
Picking a location sounds simple until you start Googling.
Every beach has different rules, permit requirements, and restrictions that nobody tells you about upfront. This page cuts through that. These are the locations Pop-Up Vows works with — along with the honest details on what each one requires so there are no surprises on your wedding day.
Delray Beach
Delray Beach is where Pop-Up Vows is based. Two miles of wide, clean beach, Atlantic Avenue right around the corner, and some of the best restaurants and boutique hotels in South Florida within walking distance. For couples who want their ceremony and their celebration all within the same neighborhood, Delray is the easy answer.
Atlantic Dunes Park
Atlantic Dunes is the quieter, more natural side of Delray’s coastline — and the location we recommend for elopements and intimate ceremonies here. Located at 1605 S. Ocean Blvd, one block north of Linton Blvd on A1A, this park has a completely different feel from the busy Atlantic Avenue beach. There’s a boardwalk, a nature trail through the dunes, a pavilion, restrooms, and metered parking on the west side of A1A.
For open ceremonies on the beach: no chairs, arches, tents, or tables are permitted. Maximum 25 guests. Ceremonies must take place between 8:00am and sunset. No permit is required for this type of ceremony.
If you prefer a more structured set-up, the park pavilion is available to rent separately. Contact (561) 243-7441 for pavilion rental availability and fees.
