Our honest take.

The Fontainebleau is the grand-hotel wedding, period: Morris Lapidus curves, oceanfront pools, and ballrooms that seat anything from 150 to well over a thousand without breaking a sweat. The events operation runs like an airline, which is exactly what you want when your guest list hits three digits.

The trade for that scale is intimacy, the property hosts multiple events at once, and a ballroom is a beautiful rental until you make it yours. Serious production (lighting, staging, sound) is what turns a Fontainebleau ballroom into your room instead of a hotel's.
