A Beautiful Timeless Venue

The Club Continental is a beautiful timeless venue that provides peace and quiet from the outside world. Although we had 150 people attend our wedding it still felt very intimate and special. Not to mention Carla Sparks to Event Director will guide you effortlessly through the wedding planning process. She will answer at any time of the day giving advice and quality instructions for every step of the wedding planning process. I can't recommend this venue enough. Book immediately!!! 5 stars over and over again.

Beautiful Wedding

We stayed at the club for 4 nights for our wedding I loved that we had this option because it felt like the wedding weekend was much longer than it was. Absolutely stunning venue if you’re looking for a classic elevated backyard wedding feel. Every detail was perfect and we would get married there every weekend if we could!

The food was amazing, from breakfast, lunch, dinner, to banquet. Service was fantastic. Our guests are still calling to tell us how beautiful everything was and how delicious the food was.

Our stay was great. I was in the tower suite and there was plenty of room for my 10 bridesmaids + flower girls and moms coming in and out. I didn’t want to leave!! We actually extended our stay and considered doing it again.

Carla was fantastic!! If you’re planning an event with her you will learn she does everything she can to make your vision come to life.

We will be back for our anniversary!

Beautiful Venue, Beautiful Wedding

The Club Continental was truly a venue like no other. A venue that holds so much value to our family, as my parents were married there as well 28 years ago. Our November Wedding was everything we could have imagined and more. From our initial correspondence with Carla, to all the details and planning, to the actual wedding date.. we could have not asked for better. The venue is spectacular, cannot beat the views of the St. John’s River with the Italian Old Mansion theme. Pictures will be timeless and classic!
Communication was quick and easy, vendors were accepted without any issues, and food was fantastic. Would recommend in a heartbeat to anyone looking to had their wedding at the Club Continental. Will forever be such a special place to us.
