Professional golfer Ben Griffin celebrated a hole-in-one in both his career and personal life as he exchanged vows with Dana Myeroff in a spectacular wedding ceremony on December 6th. The exclusive event took place at The Colony Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida, where the couple’s love story unfolded in front of 125 guests.
The theme of the wedding was described as “refined tropical luxury,” drawing inspiration from the elegance of India Hicks and Ralph Lauren. Dana Myeroff shared with PEOPLE that they aimed to create a magical experience for their guests, many of whom had travelled from out of state to be part of their special day.
Griffin and Myeroff, who have been constantly on the move due to Griffin’s demanding schedule on the PGA Tour, entrusted their wedding planning to Meredith Falk of GLDN Events. The meticulously planned weekend of celebrations kicked off with an intimate family dinner at Buccan and a gathering at The Colony Hotel’s bar on December 4th.
The following day featured a rehearsal lunch aboard the luxurious Mariner III yacht and a welcome party at The Brazilian Court Hotel, setting the tone for what would be a tear-jerking ceremony the next day. As guests arrived, they were serenaded by a string trio playing Elton John’s classic, “Can You Feel the Love Tonight.”
Dana Myeroff, looking resplendent in the Loyola gown by Anne Barge, walked down the aisle to the romantic tune of Elvis Presley’s “Can’t Help Falling in Love.” The ceremony, officiated by Doug Sieg, CEO of Lord Abbett, was a deeply personal affair, with the couple exchanging heartfelt vows they had written for each other.
The reception was a feast for the senses, with guests treated to slices of a multi-flavored vegan wedding cake and a duet entrée. The newlyweds took to the dance floor for their first dance to the soulful melodies of Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell’s “You’re All I Need to Get By.”
The celebration was not without its unique touches, as the guests were greeted by a monkey and flamingos during the cocktail hour, adding a whimsical flair that reflected the couple’s playful spirit. The event also served as an opportunity to raise awareness and support for youth sports through the Ben and Dana Griffin Foundation.
As they embark on this new chapter of their lives, the couple expressed their excitement at the prospect of starting a family someday and sailing through the Caribbean and St. Barts on a catamaran. Ben Griffin and Dana Myeroff’s wedding was truly a blend of elegance, love, and adventure, symbolizing the beginning of a lifetime of shared memories and dreams.
