From the moment we walked in to see the venue we knew it was the one. It was the first venue we saw. We had no need to see anything else. We could not believe such a magical place exists in Miami. Before we booked, we had a lot of questions, each one answered with professionalism and kindness. After we booked, things got even better. Every email, every text. every phone call, every question answered in a timely manner. I would book the place over and over again. Idalia, Regina and Lori are true professionals and they know how to make you feel relaxed. We dealt with Idalia the most, as she was the first person we met, the one we communicated with the most and our wedding day coordinator (yes you get one!!!). Idalia was my angel fairy. I think she got tired of me telling her how wonderful she is haha! When we went for the food tasting was another confimation we had chosen the right spot. The food was so delicious, and they give you so many otions for menus. The value we got for our money is unmatched. I compared prices with other venues and it just did not compare. Some were too pricey and some were too underwhelming. This is definitely a five star venue with a very affordable price tag. I would reccomend them to everyone who asks. If you are in the process of planning your wedding please save time and pay them a visit, I'm positive your search will come to a halt.
The day of our wedding was magical. I enjoyed my party so much. They say brides get very stressed the day of their wedding, and they forget to eat. That was not my case at all. I ate, drank and danced a lot. I LOVED our wedding. Idalia and the staff went above and beyond to make sure our wedding was perfect and it absolutely was. Many guests have told us it was the best wedding they have ever been to. I have people constatly telling us how beautifl the venue was. The pictures here and on google give you a pretty good idea but do yourself a favor and see it in person. You will fall in love. Idalia, thank you for everything, we will never forget how great this day was, so thank you for making it run so smoothly, for being there at every moment you were needed. You were always in the right place at the right time. Thank you Regina, Lori, Idalia and the rest of The Cooper Estate team for making our wedding day THE BEST DAY EVER!!!
Idalia we love you!

We recently had our wedding at the Cooper Estate and words cannot begin to describe how amazing our experience was. From start to finish the staff was beyond helpful, specifically Idalia and Regina. Each of them were more than happy to answer our hundreds of questions and go above and beyond to bring our dream wedding to life.
The location is absolutely stunning and all of our guests were awed by the estates amazing features. The ceremony space is one you can never forget. The beautiful tropical oasis makes for the most memorable photos. From the minute we toured the space we knew this was the one!
The entire venue is beyond space and picture perfect! Our guest cannot stop talking about the food and how well run the day was. We can’t thank the staff enough for catering to everyone’s needs!
Anyone who chooses the Cooper Estate is bound to have a beautiful day! We can’t thank the Cooper Estate enough for helping make our day everything we dreamed of!

We recently got married at Cooper Estate, and let me say wow! It was an incredible experience. Regina and especially Idalia are the best. They were so attentive throughout the entire process and this wedding had been in the making for two years! And they took great care of us. We messaged Idalia about a hundred times and she responded and was on it every time.
Now for the day of… everyone was superb. From the servers to Idalia everything went off without a hitch. The servers were fast and reliable. Everyone loved them. Idalia and there were two other helping her throughout and they were just the sweetest and kindest people. We were waited on for everything, our guest couldn’t stop talking about how amazing everyone was.
And the location, when we first got there to see it I knew this was going to be the place. Everything just looks amazing and didn’t really need any kind of decorations. The bridal suite is huge and spacious. The ceremony area was simply divine. The cocktail space was huge and the twinkling lights out side was a vibe. The inside of the “barn” is so magical it felt like we were kings and queens that day. Same thing every one of our guest couldn’t stop talking about how gorgeous the place was.
I could go on and on about the whole day but let me just say if I could do it again, I would pick Cooper Estate every time. Thank you guys!!!

What an incredible job by Idalia and the staff of the Cooper Estate. Everything exceeded expectation. They did all the hard work and brought our dream wedding to life. Idalia was always available for my bazillion questions at what seemed like every hour of the night, and every last detail of how the items we dropped off for setup and display were organized was perfection. Regina, the owner, was enthusiastic and easy to work with; she guided us through our final decisions with patience. I can’t say enough about how much of a bargain this establishment is given everything that’s included in the venue price.

If you are thinking about holding your wedding at the Cooper Estate - DO IT!!! This magical venue caters to everyone who wants to venture into this romantic estate. Most of our guests traveled from all over the world and could not stop raving about how beautiful the grotto, outdoor area, and dining space was. To top it off, Idalia was amazing to work with and made the whole day feel like a dream. Idalia is an incredible person to work with and her professionalism and over all kind heart truly made this day something I and my guests will remember for many, many years. We couldn't have asked for a better venue or a better team!

Our wedding day couldn't have gone any better! It was so dreamy and romantic. From start to finish Regina and Idalia were there every step of the way and answered all the questions and requests we had (there were A LOT!).
The ceremony area is breathtaking and the grounds are immaculate! We did using their in house catering and went with their Rodizio Menu option (it's kind of like Texas De Brazil style) The food was GREAT! I even went with a few side options that I didn't taste at the tasting and everything was delicious. The whole team did such a wonderful job at keeping the drinks flowing and handled any concerns.
My family and guests were really in awe at how beautiful the grounds are during the day and into the night. The staff service was top notch and everyone loved the food!
Idalia ended up being my day of coordinator and really made sure everything was in place and that I had everything I needed! Regina, the in-house planner organized the menu options, linen and utensil options for me. That's another thing they have in-house options and upgrades you can choose from which is a huge plus! If I had to do this all over again I would choose The Cooper East time and time again!

When my fiance and I first toured the Cooper Estate in Feburary 2022, we both agreed this was going to be the perfect place for our wedding. We booked March 25 2023 for our wedding date and we were so excited. Unfortunately April of 2022 we experienced some unforeseen medical expenses and quickly realized we were not going to be able to afford the wedding we had hoped for. We immediately contacted Idalia at Cooper Estate to see if they could work with us to return our deposit. She initially said if our date was booked by another couple, they would gladly return our deposit. She put together a contract for the agreement and we signed. As our hospital bills were piling up, we were so grateful for her understanding.Since it was almost a year from our booked date during peak wedding season, we were optimistic we would get our $5,000 deposit back, which we so desperately needed. After a few months I went by, I reached out to see if it had been booked and was informed it had not been. As August approached and finances were thin, I decided to ask a friend to reach out to see if the date was available. When my friend contacted Cooper Estate, she was informed the date of March 25 was no longer available. I was very excited to hear this news and contacted Idalia, who told me that the date had NOT been booked yet. When I told her my friend had just spoke to her, she scolded me for questioning her integrity as a business woman and said she would never lie about such a thing. Believing maybe there was some miscommunication when my friend called, I decided to wait another month and have another friend contact them. Again, my friend was told March 25 2023 was not available. I called to confirm and again, Idalia told me the date had not been booked. At this point I decided to reach out to a friend who is an attorney for some advice on how to proceed. He has been helping me try to recover the $5000 deposit that Idalia and her team at Cooper Estate signed a contract stating they would return if the date was rebooked. From 3 separate sources that contacted Cooper Estate, the date of March 25 2023 had been rebooked by another couple, yet Idalia has refused to return the $5000, has refused to communicate or cooperate with my attorney when he has attempted to contact her multiple times. I understand if the date hadn’t been rebooked, it is very reasonable of them to keep the $5000. However, the date had been rebooked, they were able to make the money needed off that date. The greed, deceit and manipulation that I have experienced from Idalia and the Cooper Estate during this very difficult time has been desolating.

We lovedddd having our wedding reception at The Cooper Estate. Lori, Regina, & Idalia were so easy to work with. They were very cooperative & supportive with all our ideas. Lori was our “Day of Coordinator” & took care of everything. We were so relaxed because we knew she was helping us. DJ Rey was also awesome. He got the vibe we wanted for dancing & music. The venue itself is gorgeousssss. Our wedding guests could not stop raving about the beauty & uniqueness of the property. We loved our experience & definitely recommend The Cooper Estate. Best day ever!!!

My husband and I chose this as our wedding venue almost immediately after touring the site. BEAUTIFUL beyond words! The site itself has everything you need for a moderately sized wedding-we had 100 people and it felt perfect, but we probably could have gone up to 120 before it would have felt crowded indoors (we also wanted as much space as possible for the dance floor!). Brides cottage is the perfect space for getting ready and taking super cute photos with the girls, and it had a view of the cocktail space which I loved so I could see people arriving from inside (without them seeing me). There is also a few beautiful spaces just outside of the cottage that are out of view from guests and made a great background for party photos and family formals. Ceremony space is amazing, a green grotto with a few steps down and a waterfall behind the couple which flows until its time for vows to be read. One caution-the steps were slightly steep for our grandmothers, but its an easy fix to send them down with someone strong, or have additional hands nearby the steps to help if needed. I personally had a broken foot while walking down the steps and even in my cast & long dress i had no problems. The cocktail space is amazing, the string lights give such a romantic vibe! we rented all our cocktail furniture directly from the venue (including two sofa sets-The Fred and the Diana Demask set) and our guests raved about the homey feel to the space. We brought in all of our decorations the day before, and Lori (Day of Coordinator)+ staff set up everything outside using some drawings and plans I provided and I felt the whole vision was perfectly put together! The reception hall was the icing on the cake! We actually were sold by the fact that the long table and wooden internal barn reminded us of Viking halls, and a bonus the whole place is so pretty on its own, that décor doesn't need to be over the top. The food, well lets just say its the first thing our guests raved about afterwards! We did the inhouse catering and chose the rodizio menu, Texas de brazil style. I cant rave about the food enough! We also got our cake through this catering package and went with Ruth's cakes from Panchis Bakery, so good! We did the package base for the cake flavor and icing, and upgraded the filling for guava and pineapple, yum! The bar and servers were all on point, our friends loved the two mixed drinks and the staff did a great job of serving everything quickly for our guests. At the end of the night we had sliders served to go, and our guests went crazy over them-one even asked me afterwards if the cooper estate caters outside parties! DJ Rey was awesome too! he did a great job of keeping the dance floor packed until the very end of the night! We provided our guests the chance to pre request songs for the dancefloor and he was able to get them through an apple playlist we created, making it so much easier than just requesting music on the night of.
Overall so very pleased with Lori, Regina, Idalia, and the rest of the staff for making our night the greatest! The venues package included so much of what is needed, and really made my wedding planning experience a lot easier. I did the planning myself and almost all of our decor (besides furniture) so having their team available for my many many emails and questions was a great help.
would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great value for their money when selecting a wedding venue :)

Idalia, Regina, and Donna embody true professionalism and should be the standard of what an A+ team is. Idalia and Regina's hard work, kindness, and flexibility went a long way during the year leading up to our wedding. They all worked so incredibly hard to ensure that our wedding was nothing less than perfect. Donna, the day of coordinator, made our day so special. It would not have been the same without her. Any couple having their wedding at The Cooper Estate is so lucky to have this team a part of their special day. We appreciate everything they did for us and ensuring we had a top notch wedding. Thank you so much, Idalia, Donna, and Regina.

Where to even begin! We just had our wedding here and words cannot describe what a dream come true!!!!! From finding the venue to all the way to the end all was effortless. Let's begin with the actual venue simply stunning. The amount of extra decor needed was minimal. We didn't want to even add much so we didn't take away from it's beauty! Now the staff!!!!! What a dream team!!! I couldn't ask for a better group to make my vision come true. From Donna, to Idalia, to the whole crew they all deserve a medal for the work they do to make you feel comfortable the whole entire process. I would recommend this venue time and time again.

The Cooper Estate has left me completely speechless. What a venue. I had my wedding last week and it was a dream come true. It was more than I ever expected. Regina and Donna did EVERYTHING for me. The number one thing that I was looking for in a wedding venue was a stress free planning process. Thanks to their wonderful team, there was never a time that I was worried about something not working out correctly. I was able to focus on the things that truly mattered in the days leading up to the wedding. I am so grateful for everyone that helped make this day possible. Many of our guests told us that the Cooper Estate was the most beautiful venue they had ever been too.

What a magical, fairytale, dream of a venue. From the moment my husband and I stepped foot on this property to check it out, we knew this was where we would be getting married. I had only spent hours watching YouTube videos of other weddings here and there was absolutely no way we could get married anywhere else.
In all the times we spoke with Regina, she was so friendly, helpful, and answered all of our questions with such ease. We never felt rushed and truly appreciated each call. She even checked in over the phone after the wedding, which was a wonderful surprise. Thank you Regina, what you have here is so special.
For the day of, Donna was spectacular! She really is Wonder Woman and keeps things on track. I don't think I've ever seen someone multitask as efficiently as she does. Speaking to her the week prior really put us at ease as she comforted us and told us she would take care of anything and everything. HUGE thank you!
To all of the employees, thank you for being so amazing throughout. The food was mouth watering and to this day, people will not stop talking about it! As a matter of fact, people will not stop talking about the venue and its beauty.
Our wedding was more than we imagined. Thank you for the most perfect day. We will forever remember every detail, and how we felt throughout the evening.

The Cooper Estate is definitely the most beautiful & unique wedding venue in Miami. I chose this venue for my wedding which was on 9/25/20. Regina helped us feel at ease about getting everything done even after having to postpone due to COVID. She was extremely accommodating to everything we requested & it turned out to be exactly what we wanted! The day of coordinator Donna was a sweetheart! She was on point with everything I requested & kept us on schedule through the entire night. The food was ridiculously delicious! I continue to get feedback from the gusts how good it was and how attentive the staff was. Overall 10/10! If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. I love this venue & the people working it I highly recommend!

I had my wedding there in February 2019 and if I could go back in time and pick The Cooper Estate again, I would. This place had been the venue of my dreams since I was a teenager because of its uniqueness; from the rustic barn to the grotto ceremony area, to the wonderous landscaping. There was no place like The Cooper Estate the matched my vision. I knew I had picked the right place not just because of its look, but the tremendous staff that works there. Idalia always kept me updated with everything about my wedding, Regina was amazing to work with and helped me envision more of my dream wedding, and Donna was the best coordinator a bride could ask for! Honestly, the list can go on about how amazing The Cooper Estate is. However, to put it simple, I did not have my dream wedding, my dream wedding didn't come close to the fairytale that took place at The Cooper Estate.

Most amazing/beautiful venue in Miami!!! My wife and I were married their last month and it surpassed our wildest expectations. Regina was amazing to work with, and was always available for my wife’s million questions. The food, decor, and service was perfect. We truly could not have asked for a more perfect day. We highly recommend working with Donna, the day of coordinator. If you want a dream wedding, the Cooper Estate is where you need to have it.

I fell in love with the Cooper Estate from the second I saw it (even online), but the warmth and attentiveness the staff provided throughout our planning and on our wedding day was above and beyond special. My family and I felt so comfortable throughout the entire "wedding process" and we are just so happy.
All of the guests of the wedding also felt the wedding was beautiful, of course. I received comments that it felt like the wedding took place in a romantic, fantasy world filled with beautiful flowers and that it was the most special place they have ever come across in south Florida. I know there is quite a lot of work that gets done behind the scenes before the big day, and this team made it seamless.
The Cooper Estate also is connected to many FANTASTIC vendors that already are familiar with this venue, which made the planning that much easier.
This is the right wedding venue for your big day, I promise!

The Cooper Estate is a dream, fairy tale wedding venue. I got married here in January 2019. Regina is amazing, she took care of everything from the very beginning, through the planning process to the actual day of my wedding. I didn’t have to think about a thing. Because of her I truly got to enjoy my engagement and bridal experience. She is the fairy godmother and made all my dreams and wishes come true. The venue is impeccable, from the grounds, to the grotto, DJ, photographer, food and flowers. Everything was so beautiful and everyone was incredibly professional. The bridal cottage is stunning and you really feel tucked away in your own little private cottage to enjoy your bridal time. Regina, Idalia and Donna made my experience so special. I am so thankful they were in my life during this special time. I could not imagine my wedding day without them. My husband and I feel incredibly blessed to have been able to spend our first moment as husband and wife there. It was a magical day that I will cherish forever.

The Cooper Estate is truly a fantastic venue. The location might throw you off at first but once you see it you will instantly realize this place is like no other. It’s a true gem.
I had the pleasure to work directly with Idalia, Regina and Donna and they really know how to make the process a wonderful experience.
It was such a memorable and fun day for us, we are grateful that we were able to take a step back to take it all in truly experience the moment and that wouldn’t have been possible without the wonderful staff and the remarkable Donna Ingram (day of coordinator provided by TCE) .Our friends and family did not stop talking about the venue and food for days. The venue was stunning everything we had asked for. The food was delicious, cooked to perfection with a fabulous presentation. I honestly only have great things to say about TCE, highly recommend.

We had our dream wedding at Cooper Estates in 2019. The grounds are so beautiful even by themselves that we barely needed to decorate, and our guests are still talking about the beauty of the venue and the fun at the venue they had dancing with us into the night. Regina and the Cooper Estates team made the process very easy from start to finish, were great with our families and friends on the day-of, offered vendors that ultimately we were happy to have used and also worked well with our other outside vendors. There are many decisions one has to make during the wedding planning process, and choosing Cooper Estates was one of our best decisions!

Regina and her team were fantastic in ensuring that everything we wanted they were able to deliver. Whether it was on the menu or not or they had done it in the past, Regina ensured it happened for us. To this day our family and friends talk about the beauty of the venue and the deliciousness of the food! They say it’s like nothing they had ever experienced before. Everything was absolutely perfect! Can we do it again?! 😉

My wedding at the Cooper Estate was just perfect. From the owner, Regina to every person in her staff they were all on point. They were always looking at everything that was happening at the wedding and anticipating any possible need that we could have . The wedding coordinator, Donna was so profesional and experienced, I have been to many weddings and never met a person more capable at her job . The food (Brazilian style) was amazing ; people at my job are still talking about how good it was. So happy we made the right decision to have our dream wedding here. So thankful to everybody at the Cooper Estate.

She made sure we had time to eat and was just amazing the entire night up until the very end. Our wedding was such a great time and we enjoyed dancing the night away with our friends and family.

The Cooper Estate was everything I dreamed of for a wedding venue. The day literally could not have been more perfect. My guests were amazed and had never been to such a beautiful venue. From start to finish Regina & Idalia made the process of the planning the wedding very easy. I can’t recommend their day of coordinator Donna enough. She took away all the stress I had and made sure everything ran smoothly. The food was outstanding. The DJ who comes with their package made our first dance go amazing. At the last minute we planned to have everyone join in with us and he helped make that go perfectly. I literally wish I could relive my wedding at the Cooper Estate over and over it was the best day ever!

This venue is just stunning!! The grotto for the ceremony feels so romantic and so does the cocktail hour area! My husband and I fell in love with it at the first visit and the staff just made it so much better. Regina and Idalia were always so responsiveness and really try to help in every way that they can!! We recommend to do the food tasting as well, as it is well worth it when it comes to deciding the food and cocktail hour seating options! I got so many compliments for my wedding venue! A big plus for me was all of the amenities that this venue offers! Another plus was that they made sure we (the wedding party) were fully served with food and drinks during cocktail hour! It was just what we wanted after saying "I do." :) HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend this venue! So beautiful!

We had our wedding at The Cooper Estate and I could not have asked for anything more beautiful. It was perfect. The venue is like nothing you will find in Miami. Our guest could not believe how beautiful it was and keep commenting on how delicious the food was, we had the Rodizio. Idalia was very helpful during the whole planning process and answered all my question. Donna, the Day of Coordinator, was a amazing to work with. She goes above and beyond to make sure everything goes just the way you want it. Our wedding was everything I pictured it to be and more thanks to this beautiful venue and Regina and her staff.We had our wedding at The Cooper Estate and I could not have asked for anything more beautiful.

The wedding venue was by far the best. We couldn't have asked for more. We would definitely recommend this place for other couples. Few things that need work: Have a rehearsal with the coordinator, we understand that there is no rehearsal dinner but the ambiance//atmosphere can be challenging. especially for older guests. Also too many hands were in the pot which made things confusing as far as communication. Wedding party and guests thought we out did ourselves and that the food was amazing along with the venue.

The Cooper Estate is a stunning wedding venue nestled in Redland, FL that everyone should absolutely check out! Regina is absolutely fantastic and treats everyone like family! The grounds are impeccable from the unique tropical landscaping to the custom iron work made by Regina herself. The catering is also top notch! If you're getting married and want an outdoor wedding with an indoor reception, the Cooper Estate is your place! It has all the charm you could ever dream of!

Our wedding could not have been anymore perfect. The attention that the staff gives you is incredible. We never felt any stress or had any issues with planning for our day and the day of the wedding, everything was just picture perfect. Starting with our first contact of Idalia and Regina, there was always great communication, a great overview of the venue and all have great input and ideas based on their experience. Donna who was the day of coordinator was amazing and helped with my husband plan a surprise guest to come sing for me. Donna makes a timeline breakdown and makes sure you are happy on your day and not worried about the small details because all that is taken care of. Our friends that have been married in other venues always told us the day goes by quick w all the photos and events, they didn’t get to enjoy their day as much as they would’ve liked. At the cooper, you enjoy your day and actually get to have fun and it didn’t just fly by. We got to soak it all in and it was due to the staff taking care of everything. The cooper is a hidden gem and all the Guest can not stop talking about our wedding and they say it’s the best they’ve ever attended. The food was exceptional, the ceremony amazing, and reception everything you could ever want. If you want a wedding stress free and done right with no worries, choose the Cooper Estate you will not regret it!

Wow, I'm not even sure where to start my review of The Cooper Estate venue. Absolutely everything was incredible. It's not just the magical feeling of the place but the way you're treated from the moment you first visit to all the month leading to the event.
Friends and family often ask my daughter, and I what was the best part of the wedding day, and for both of us the best part was that we did not have to worry about anything because the sense of confidence was there from day one. Regina and her assistant Idalia were amazing always responding to all our questions, always open for any Ideas we had as well as per their expert advised, and multiple choices without pressuring.
The entire staff and vendors they recommend for good reasons are absolutely amazing. Everything felt personal and dedicated.
We truly experienced a fairy- tale wedding.
Thank you Regina for making my daughter 's day the most special day of her life.

Everything about this venue and staff was so perfect that It's hard to put into words the incredibly special experience we had at my son and daughter-in-law's wedding. From the most amazing multi-course food tasting prior to the event, which felt like you were in a 5 star restaurant, to the attention to every detail in service and decor. The wedding ceremony in the beautiful grotto was very serene and made for some spectacular pictures. The Cooper Estate is an absolutely perfect, beautiful and unique place if you are planning your dream wedding or special event. Thank you Gina and staff for making this such a special and unforgettable evening.

Our Wedding came out exactly how we envisioned it. The Cooper Estate is absolutely beautiful, everything is so unique. All of the beautiful trees in the grotto, the tree swing, and the bridal suite made our day so different and special. Everything about our Wedding was perfect. The food was DELICIOUS, all of our guests enjoyed the Rodizio style food. The Cooper estate staff did a great job making sure everything went smoothly. We are so happy with everything. Thank you to The Cooper estate for making our Wedding perfect and everything we could have dreamed of!

The Cooper Estate far exceeded my expectations. I’ll begin will the staff, working with Regina was an absolute pleasure. Donna, the day of coordinator, is so sweet and made sure everything went smoothly on my special day. As for the property, it is naturally beautiful and something out of a fairytale. My wedding pictures throughout the property came out amazing. The food was also a hit. I went with the Brazilian BBQ. I would highly recommend The Cooper Estate to anyone looking for a place to tie the knot in South Florida.

The Cooper Estate is hands down the best place to get married in South Florida. I got married 8 months ago and my guests are still talking about the wedding. Most of them said it was the best wedding they had ever been to. Best venue, best DJ and BEST FOOD! We did the Brazilian BBQ which I highly recommend. Regina's property is something out of a fairytale! The sunken grotto is the most gorgeous spot for a ceremony and the indoor reception area is unique and intimate but still spacious enough for a party. Donna, the day of coordinator, coordinated the entire night seamlessly, my husband and I didn't have to worry about anything! Stop looking at other venues and get married at the Cooper Estate, I promise you won't regret it.

My wedding was better than I could have dreamed! This place is beautiful to begin with and then the way everything came together was perfect. ALL of my guests are raving about every aspect of it! The dinner was delicious, the guests commented that it is rare for "mass produced food to come out hot and then be delicious". The DJ that was recommended by the Cooper Estate did a great job meeting our requests and filling in songs that matched our style, everyone commented on what a great playlist. There was a day of coordinator that helped make everything run smoothly. She made sure we were brought drinks and snacks during cocktail hour even though we were taking pictures. She started the event on time and kept things moving so smoothly, I didn't have to think about a thing. Regina went above and beyond to make this the dream wedding. It is beautiful outside, the greenery came out great in pictures and the barn inside is phenomenal! Would 100% recommend!

Words cannot express how magical our wedding was at the Cooper Estate on June 9, 2018. Idalia was so easy to work with leading up to the wedding, she answered all questions almost instantly. Donna, the day of coordinator, made sure every single detail of the day was absolutely perfect, she made the day completely worry free. Regina was sweet and ensured everything was executed exactly as planned. If I didn't know any better I would have thought the controlled the weather, too!
Every inch of the venue makes for the most romantic and unique wedding every bride dreams of. The ceremony space is beautifully set in the limestone Grotto complete with lucious greenery, orchids, and waterfalls. The stairs were a bit of a concern for some guests, but everyone managed to walk up and down without any issues. The cocktail hour is set beneath large beautiful trees with romantic lighting, and the indoor ceremony space makes you feel like royalty. The food was absolutely delicious and the service spectacular. Our guests raved about every aspect of the wedding.
I would 100% recommend the Cooper Estate to anyone looking to get married in South Florida.

The Cooper Estate is the absolute, most gorgeous venue in the Miami area hands down! From the enchanting grotto to the romantic barn, there’s very little you have to do to this venue to make it beautiful and memorable. Working with Regina and Idalia in the planning phases was an absolute pleasure. I live in California and planned my entire wedding 100% long distance without a planner; but for my every question, they were quick to respond and made the planning phases as smooth as possible. There was never a time I thought I had to worry about anything. The venue add ons, such as the draping or the moss aisle runner are readily available from the Cooper Estate which made things so easy. Our day of coordinator Donna was absolutely on point. She knows exactly what she is doing and is exactly the type of person you want running the show on your wedding day. She catered to our every need and made sure we felt like royalty on the big day. Looking back on everything I wouldn’t change a thing! The planning, the catering, the DJ, the venue were just perfect. We still get rave reviews on how amazing our big day was and we owe it all to the cooper estate.

Words literally cannot express how incredibly happy my husband and I and our families were with this wedding venue. We planned a wedding from our home across the country and Idalia and Regina made the entire process seamless and I didn't have to worry about not being there at all! I wanted to have a wedding in Florida, but did not want your typical "Florida Beach Wedding". The moment I arrived at Cooper Estate and saw the grotto on our tour I got tears in my eyes, I knew this was the perfect wedding venue, and that it was! I worked with Idalia after we signed the contract, sending her multiple emails a week and I never felt nervous about not being there because her and Regina made me so confident they had everything covered and she was so very responsive. I honestly have nothing bad to say about this venue, our guests could not stop telling us how we had a truly fairytale wedding and the most beautiful wedding they had ever seen. When it came time for the wedding I worked closely with Donna Ingram the last month as our day of planner, if I wasn't already obsessed with this venue she definitely did the finishing touches. Donna worked with my vendors, put together a perfect day of timeline, and set up the venue to match the exact picture I had in my mind. She made sure I had every single thing I needed from finding missing family members, locating my moms lost speech cards, providing us with appetizers and champagne as needed, and even helping me figure out how to perfectly incorporate both my father and step father in my special day. She was the best person I could imagine to make this day incredible! She also operated as a courier service for us the day of the wedding when we realized we had no one to deliver our cupcakes to the venue, relieving a ton of stress from me and my family! Lastly, the food and DJ were incredible. The DJ really got the party started and played a great mix of oldies and fun current songs to keep people on the dance floor the entire night. My dad and I did a remix fun father daughter dance and the DJ mixed it to exactly what I wanted which the crowd loved! The cooper estate truly is the real deal, if you are looking for the most beautiful wedding venue to start your new beginning and an incredible staff to work with I highly recommend it 100%!

Growing up, my beautiful wife and I (since 2/3/18 yay!) never believed, or hoped for, a fairytale wedding. It wasn't until my actual wedding day at the Cooper Estate that I realized why perfection and "dreaminess" at one's wedding are so yearned. Though "dreaminess" is rarely ever achieved and delivered, my wife and I were a lucky recipient during our ceremony and reception at the Cooper Estate, and you can tell it was not their first. Let's start with the obvious priority of a wedding: venue. GORGEOUS. From the beautiful and natural surrounding of the gathering area and ceremony, the classy, expansive, yet so unbelievably intimate setup for the cocktail hour, to the grand and inexplicably majestic dining hall for the reception (that I still get praising comments on to this day...). The only factor that topped the indescribable setting was the service. Everyone was welcoming and professional from the very first "hello" to the successful "goodbye" as a newlywed. My best-man, being religious and unable to taxi or drive to the ceremony on a Saturday, had to bike to the Cooper Estate: one of the valets offered to return the bike back to my Airbnb host for me on his own initiation. There was just no request (granted, to the readers, these should be wedding related...) the Cooper Estate could not, and did not fulfil. Lastly, and surprisingly something me and my wife actually got to experience as a busy newlywed, as promised, the Brazilian bbq feast was just great. I, being a big fan of Texas de Brazil, had high hopes for the bbq option, and it was certainly met. The sides were beyond scrumptious as well (among others, we had the truffle mac n cheese!). Our special night at the Cooper Estate was truly an evening we, and our guests, will never forget. For those of you (congrats by the way) thinking of Miami for beach or by-the-sea weddings, scratch that; escape the impracticalities of blowing sand and high humidity (which are never mentioned in the movies), and have your dream day or night at the Cooper Estate. You won't regret it. Special shout-out to Regina, Donna and Idalia, who are incredible!

My fairytale wedding came to life here at the Cooper Estate. From its rustic elegance to its vintage charm, it is sincerely a gorgeous venue like no other here in South Florida. Very inclusive , reasonably priced and well worth the money!! The catering, food, and service was excellent. Regina , Italia, Donna and Dj Rey are extremely helpful, empathetic and easy to work with. Donna really worked her butt the day-of! If i could have 10 weddings all over again, I'd have them all there! 5 stars! thank you for the wonderful memories <3 Laurie & Ryan

The Cooper Estate is truly a hidden gem! The romance, beauty, and style of the venue is so unexpected, especially when considering the location in Redland/Homestead and just south of Miami. It was truly my dream venue. We've been married for a month now and our friends and family are still raving about it! The food is top notch, and Regina, Idalia, and Donna are beyond helpful and accommodating when it comes to their service! The pictures do not do it justice. The Cooper Estate is truly one of a kind!

When we went looking for venues last year to get married we visited several venues but when we visit the cooper estate it was love at 1st sight. Is nothing like you have seen especially here in Miami, FL. The venue is beautiful and a elegant rustic look with lush greenery and let’s not talk about the private cottage for the bride to relax and get ready before the ceremony it’s beautiful. The ceremony in the grotto was priceless and the reception in the barn it was something from a fairytale book. The staff at the venue is very friendly and professional. Also the wedding coordinator Ms. Donna wow! She is amazing! She will go above and beyond to ensure you’re not stress, the wedding is organize and flowing and what we loved is that she worked hard to make sure everything was perfect on our wedding day! Ms. Regina and her assistant Idalia they are on top of everything and easy to talk to. They answers emails and calls very promptly and their professionalism and hard work is amazing! And last but not least I highly recommend DJ Hurricane he played amazing music throughout the whole night that the dance floor was never empty! Our wedding day was on 9/30/17 and till this day our guests still talk about how beautiful our wedding was. I highly recommend this venue for your special day!

Words cannot explain how amazing The Cooper Estate was to me and my husband. The Cooper Estate caught our eye initially when searching for a wedding venue, but we ended up picking another place. Then Hurricane Irma decided to change our plans. We were so fortunate to get into contact with Regina who became my Fairy Godmother. She was sincere with her concern about our situation. The thought of having to replan a wedding in five weeks would have seemed impossible for others, but for the team at The Cooper Estate it was just a test of how great they are. The Cooper Estate provides everything you could possibly ask for plus more. Idalia, Regina’s assistant, was so patient answering the millions of questions I had no matter the time of night I asked them. Donna, the Day of Coordinator, ironed out all the details and really made my dreams come true. Friends and family were so impressed by the smalls details that The Cooper Estate helped me execute. I had a vision and I never got resistance with making it happen. We still have friends talking about how great the staff, food, and ambience were. I would recommend this venue for weddings, birthdays, and any other special occasion.

We had our ceremony and reception at the Cooper Estate. After touring the venue we were instantly in love. When we pulled up to the venue and all the decorations and flowers were out the venue was transformed. So if you love it immediately it will get even better. The owner Regina is very accommodating and sweet. Donna the day of coordinator is the absolute best. She is very with it and makes sure every single detail is covered. She allows you to relax on your wedding day. I would not change a single thing about my wedding. My wedding at the Cooper Estate was a dream wedding.

The Cooper estate is absolutely breathtaking! From the moment my husband and I stepped foot on the property we both fell in love! My husband was worried about the cost prior to touring the grounds but immediately changed his mind. The grotto, barn, and bridal suit is like a fairy tale. Our guest were all raving about how beautiful everything was! Regina was an absolute pleasure to work with! There were a few things in the beginning of planning... but every time we had a question or concern Regina always made a fair solution. The day of the wedding she even surprised us with a little special something extra which really made us so happy! Thank you very much Regina for making my special day so amazing with your beautiful venue !

Hands down, the best venue ever! When my husband and I got engaged last year, we knew exactly where we wanted to get married. We did not even look anywhere else and we are so glad that we didn't! The Cooper Estate is absolutely magical and our wedding was a fairytale. Our friends and family were blown away and had nothing but wonderful things to say about our wedding. Several people have complimented that it was the best wedding that they have been to. I credit these compliments to the Cooper Estate. This place is stunning, romantic and everyone had a blast. Regina, Donna and Idalia were the best! They were so sweet and always available to answer my questions. Regina made sure that our wedding day was perfect and we are beyond thankful for everything she did for us. Donna was our wedding day coordinator and I swear we would have been the lost without her. There are no words to describe how perfect our wedding was. The Cooper Estate will always hold a special place in my heart.

The Cooper Estate is truly a magnificent venue. It is so beautiful, serene and special. The feeling one gets when you enter the property is magical. The garden setting is lush and naturally beautiful. The refurbished barn is elegant and tastefully decorated. The grounds are kept in pristine condition. It is truly one of Miami’s wedding gems. Regina, Idalia and Donna guaranteed us that everything would be perfect on our day and they were true to their word. The food was delicious, plating was stellar, the staff was on point, the venue was perfectly decorated and honestly you can’t ask for a more gorgeous place to share your love for your better half with your friends, family and loved ones. We’re so happy we got married at the Cooper Estate. Our wedding day was simply magical. We are beyond thrilled with the Cooper Estate!

The day of my wedding was everything I could have imagined and more ! Donna the day of coordinator was absolutely so sweet and fantastic ! Regina was very kind and good at responding as well as Idalia .
The food, the venue, the Dj photographer and videographer Ron wood were amazing such a great package deal ! They made our night perfect ! The staff was so sweet and kind and everything was great the weather was perfect and my guests are still talking about the wedding a month later ! If I had to say one negative thing I would say I found myself having to constantly be texting them instead of the opposite way it wasn't until the week of the wedding that they really wrote me about the major details but other then that everything was absolutely wonderful ! The day was a dream and most of all with all the beauty that was around
It enhanced that day and it made walking down to my future husband even more magical !
Can't say enough about everything ! I'm obsessed with this hidden gem!

My husband and I had our wedding at The Cooper Estate on January 7 and it was the best day of our lives! I absolutely fell in love with the venue just looking at the website and when I went to see it, sealed the deal. I loved how the ceremony was outside and the reception inside. When we went for the tasting they made decorated as if we were attending a wedding to get a better feel for the venue and what it would be like on our wedding day, we asked all the questions we needed answers for. Idalia, Regina, and Donna are great at their jobs!!! We did not have a rehearsal but brought all of our stuff for the wedding the Wednesday before the wedding and got to take one more look at the place before the big day! It did rain on our wedding day but the staff quickly dried everything for the ceremony to begin! Dinner was a Brazilian BQQ with skewers of meat and chicken passed around. Everyone absolutely loved the food and we asked for to go boxes for us which was delicious the next day! We had a firepit outside with S'mores after dinner. We used mostly all of the vendors from the cooper estate list and they were all fantastic. We could not have imagined our wedding being any better, all of our guests had the most incredible time and have nothing but good things to say about the evening!

We just had our wedding 2 days ago! The venue is a hidden gem. From the minute you drive in you feel as if you have been transported outside of South Florida. The venue is an amazing setting for the wedding of you dreams. You defiantly receive what you pay for. The quality is SUPERB! The grounds, cottage and barn speak for itself. Regina and Idalia did a fabulous job coordinating my vision for that day. We started off our afternoon getting dressed in the cottage, what a beautiful touch. Donna, our coordinator went above and beyond to ensure my vision came to life. She was all over the details and kept the flow going. She made sure that we had drinks and appetizers during cocktail hour. Also that we were able to have moments alone to soak everything in throughout the evening. The food was amazing, we choose the steakhouse style menu. Once you book, the venue offers a wedding-style tasting. All the couples go and see the venue as if it would be set up duri
