Fantastic Wedding Venue!

We absolutely loved our wedding at The Brannon Center! We were able to rent the entire center for 14 hours, which is rare compared to the usual 5-6 hours that are offered at other venues for weddings! They vendors they recommended were fantastic and affordable! Our guests loved the waterfront view for picture and had a blast!

The best view, staff, attention, service, modern installations and space!

As soon as I walked into this venue, it was love at first sight I live in New Smyrna and I always pass through on our boat through the intercoastal waters. I always wondered how it would be inside it blew my mind of how beautiful and well cared. This venue is from the first moment that I contacted them to every visit that I was available to check on items and the space all the attention for me was given and all the help I could get on the day of the event. Great team work on keeping it beautiful and clean my guests loved the location by the water and the beautiful sunset skies inside, very spacious and well illuminated it looked modern, sleek, elegant and classy. The team and staff very helpful from day one to the day of the event. Throughout the event they were very supportive and helped anyway they could, Greg very attentive to all the details that we had planned was recommend 100% worth the value pictures looked amazing. Modern sleek beautiful!

Beautiful venue, overall great experience!

Our wedding at the Brannon Center was so beautiful, and our event ran so smoothly! From the start, Gregg and Shonna were very responsive and wonderful to work with. You get such a beautiful space, inside and out, for your money as well. Hurricane Ian hit a couple of weeks before our wedding, and due to unexpected damage at the venue, we were unsure that we would even be able to have our event. Thankfully, their team found quick solutions so we could still hold it as planned.

Beautiful Venue- Gregg was the best

The Brannon Center speaks for itself in its beauty, but I have to rave about the staff! Gregg N. was astounding, I don't think we could have done it without him and the amazing staff. Gregg was a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process, always available to chat, to let me in to see the venue and so accommodating of additional requests! If the City of New Smyrna gives out employee awards, Gregg deserves the highest award!

Lisa and Katie at the Brannon Civic Center are so kind and quick to answer any and all of our questions. They were extremely flexible with how thing were set up for our event and made the whole experience less stressful. I also think they coordinated with our vendors behind the scenes because we barely had to do anything on the day of the party. We highly recommend this venue because it is a big open room with a great outdoor space so guests can go in and out as they like. Our guests kept commenting on house nice the location was with big windows facing the intercoastal waterway. This location is especially ideal for a large number of guests as you can easily fit a few hundred people in the room.
