Apparently, June is Miami Romance Month and Hotels Are Playing Along

They're at it again. The ever-busy Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau have a new marketing toy to play with--a promo and website called MiamiRomanceMonth.com, which plays up June as the month of brides and grooms.

But how are the hotels involved? For starters, next week five crazy loved-up couples will battle it out for a chance to win a $150,000 wedding at the fancy Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables.

The five finalist couples (who were randomly selected from initial entries) will have to compete in a "Wedding Day Challenge" obstacle course that takes place on Coral Gables' Miracle Mile next Wednesday, June 22. (We hear one of the contests is called "Let Them Eat Cake," so expect things to get messy.)

It may be too late to humiliate yourself in that contest, however there are still other hotel deals on offer as part of Miami Romance Month--you can see them all here.

Here's a sample of the packages designed to snare romantic saps...

Conrad Miami: The Down On One Knee package includes a stay in a one-bedroom suite, dinner for two at Atrio, a bottle of Champagne with engraved 'love flutes' and chocolate-covered strawbeeries, in-room breakfast for two, a 50-minute couples massage, roundtrip airport transfers in the hotel's Audi A8 and--wait for it--a Conrad-monogrammed knee pillow. Rates start at $595 a night.

Mondrian South Beach: The Love is in the Air Package includes a free upgrade to a suite upon check-in (based on availability), a Swedish couples massage in-room or at agua Spa, a 'sensual desire kit', and a guaranteed late check-out time of 3 p.m. It requires a 2-night minimum stay and is valid until June 30. The rate code is PKSPNG -- although we had trouble finding availability online so we suggest calling the hotel directly if you want to get your Mondrian romance on.
