Request a Ribbon Cutting

The Town of Miami Lakes looks forward to celebrating and supporting your business with a ribbon cutting ceremony!

Ribbon cutting ceremonies are typically held for the following occasions:

  • Welcoming a New Business to Miami Lakes (can be held up to 6 months after opening)
  • Moved to a new location due to expansion
  • Celebrating a major renovation or remodel
  • Celebrating a milestone anniversary
  • Breaking ground on a new development
About

The ribbon cutting ceremony runs anywhere from 15-20 minutes. After the ribbon is cut and pictures are taken, welcoming remarks are given by Mayor or his designee followed by an opportunity for a representative of the business to speak. The Town does not require RSVP’s to attend ribbon cuttings. Attendance at ribbon cutting ceremonies varies depending on the time and date selected and how much promotion is done on behalf of the business.

While the Town works hard to accommodate scheduling preferences of businesses, we must also consider the availability of Town Officials and staff to ensure a successful event. For this reason, we only guarantee Town participation in ribbon cutting ceremonies with a minimum 2-week notice and our expressed prior confirmation of the date. Ideally, it is best to work with the Town before selecting your date.
