Our honest take.

The Kampong is a National Tropical Botanical Garden estate hiding on Coconut Grove's bayfront: seven acres of rare palms, century-old trees, and lawn running down to the water. It feels like a family secret because, functionally, it is one, most Miami couples have never heard of it.

The scale is intimate and the rules protect the collection, so guest counts stay near 150 and vendors work carefully. Covered contingencies are on you. In return you get the closest thing to a Hawaii wedding that doesn't require boarding passes.
