Ocean Drive, South Beach
Wedding Hair & Beauty
for The Betsy Hotel
Under a mile east of us — one of the closest wedding venues to our chairs.
What The Betsy Hotel asks of a look
The Betsy is the literary, colonial-white end of Ocean Drive — smaller and more composed than its neighbours, which is exactly why couples choose it. Weddings there tend to be intimate rather than enormous, and the photography leans classic.
The morning itself
You are close enough that the morning barely needs a plan. Getting ready with us at 1301 Alton and travelling to The Betsy is a short trip across the island, which means the party can be finished, photographed and back at the hotel without the day ever feeling rushed.
Planned, not improvised
Every wedding here runs the same way, whatever the venue. The look is agreed at a free consultation, proven in a trial, and locked well before the day — so the morning is calm and on schedule rather than a set of decisions made under pressure. Fifteen years of Miami Beach wedding mornings taught us that the calm part is the whole product.
Because we're a full hair salon, nail salon and spa in one building, the bride, the party and the mothers can all be taken care of together. Group reservations are coordinated personally — start here and we'll build the morning around your ceremony time.

Common Questions
- How far is McAllister Spa from The Betsy Hotel?
- Under a mile east of us — one of the closest wedding venues to our chairs. We're at 1301 Alton Rd in Miami Beach, with free parking in our own lot — which matters on a wedding morning, when the last thing a party needs is a garage.
- When should I book a bridal trial for a wedding at The Betsy Hotel?
- Six to eight weeks before the date, and earlier in high season. Wedding beauty done well is mostly done early: the look is agreed at a free consultation, proven in a trial, and locked long before the morning itself. Colour belongs earlier still — two to three weeks out, never the week of.
- Can the whole wedding party get ready together?
- Yes, and it's the reason people bring their parties here. We're a full hair salon, nail salon and spa in one building, so the bride, the bridesmaids and both mothers can be handled together in one morning — hair and updos, manicures, facials — rather than split across three businesses in three neighbourhoods. Group reservations are coordinated personally, so start the conversation early.
