This 1100 acre premier golf resort is just 35 minutes from Orlando in lovely Howey-In-The-Hills. It is the perfect choice for couples who want to spend a weekend (or longer) all in one premium location. You really wouldn’t need to leave for a moment!

With three venue options, each with their own ceremony, cocktail, and reception location, you won’t have any trouble finding the perfect spot. The resort also has many amenities, such as an on-site spa and an award-winning course for the golf enthusiast. They even have trap and skeet shooting, which could be a great bonding experience for your wedding party!

You and your guests can stay right on the grounds in one of their many luxurious rooms, and you can even include rehearsal dinners or day after brunches to your wedding day package. Their superb service and award-winning food make them a favorite in Central Florida for upscale weddings.
Venue 1902

If you’re a lover of all things vintage and antique, you’ll love this repurposed grammar school turned event space in Sanford. So much thought has gone into the restoration of this space- from the gleaming wooden floors to the beautiful grounds that you can utilize for your wedding or wedding photos.

There’s space to have your wedding indoors or out, and charm everywhere you look. Whitewashed walls meet crystal chandeliers, so there are endless possibilities on how you can decorate the space. They also offer many one-of-a-kind furniture rental pieces, so you can mix and match to your heart’s desire inside and outside of the space. 

They have three different wedding packages that you can choose from and offer set up and tear down services and valet and arch rentals. Significant discounts are available for non-Saturday rates, which is always a nice way to save money if your date is flexible.

Your wedding can be just about any style- from relaxed and casual, to sophisticated and romantic- at Venue 1902; it’s a great canvas to design the wedding of your dreams.

Estate on the Halifax

This astounding 10-acre estate located in Port Orange is a venue you need to check out if you are a lover of romantic southern beauty. Everywhere you look in this property is another gem, from the beautiful chapel to a gazebo and a quaint “Snow White’s Cottage” where you can host your cocktail hour.

Photographic opportunities abound here; the outdoor area is meticulously maintained, water features and koi ponds are scattered throughout, and the mature oak trees drip with Spanish Moss. 

Other areas available for use are a restored train car, which would be great for a small dinner or cocktail event. Also on the property is the Tavern, which once was an antique store, which is an excellent location for a reception/dance. All the buildings within the estate are historic, yet they are beautifully maintained. 

There are so many unique opportunities for this venue, depending on the kinds of events you want for your wedding weekend! This estate is privately owned, so you and your guests really will feel like you’re a world away.


Museum of Arts and Sciences in Daytona Beach

If you love the idea of a big, open space with modern and clean lines, you don’t have to go far to find an excellent wedding venue; be sure to check out the Museum of Arts and Sciences in Daytona Beach. This space is very versatile and can accommodate large weddings or smaller events in style.

They are pros at logistics, so designing a wedding there is easy because there are so many options for locations both inside and outside the venue. Most notable and popular for weddings is the grand staircase in the main entrance, making for a stunning ceremony site.

With several hall options and outdoor courtyard access, you can create a really unique experience for your guests! 

Guests are encouraged to take in the works of art during the cocktail hour or reception, and there are additional spaces within the museum that can be utilized, such as the family train station and a planetarium. You can even get married under the stars! 

This venue is a great option for family-friendly weddings or anyone who wants something really unique for their wedding day events. 

Grand Ol’ Barn

The Grand Ol’ Barn is Old Florida charm that meets modern wedding venue, located only an hour outside of Orlando near New Symrna Beach’s beautiful shores. 

Big family? The Barn is a historic citrus packing barn and can accommodate large crowds of up to 250 and is fully air-conditioned for comfort. The high beamed ceilings and whitewashed walls inside give it a kiss of shabby chic, with both upscale chandeliers and whimsical Edison lights glowing from above.

Take advantage of the gorgeous backdrops offered with 12 different rentals to choose from, and they have many more options for rentals, from romantic to rustic themes. Whiskey barrels are scattered throughout the venue indoors and out, making great gift tables, cocktail tables, and photo ops! 

As a bonus, they have well-appointed areas for both the wedding couple and the wedding party to get ready, something that not all venues have! 


We hope these Central Florida wedding venues that we love will help you in your search for a wedding location! Your wedding venue should be one that offers you everything you need, and have precisely the atmosphere you want- especially because it's one of the largest expenses for your wedding day!

Once you’ve chosen the right venue for your wedding, all the other decisions you will make will be informed by this choice.  Be sure to do your research, and find someplace you really love to start the rest of your married life!
