Elise Sent on 01/11/2022Wonderful!
We were drawn to the MOAS as a venue simply for the fact that it was different from every other wedding venue we looked at. On top of which, the museum has so many options to choose from. You can even use the Planetarium as a ceremony space, which we considered for a brief moment. The price tag was also within our budget, and we got more bang for our buck. We got engaged during the hight of the pandemic, so flexibility was another key factor, and the museum was very flexible in regards to that, though we never switched dates. Having a live band was the most important thing to us, so we were also looking for venues that had space for a band, and would allow a live band (some places do not). We also wanted our wedding to be a unique experience that spoke to who we are as a couple and the MOAS was that place for us. We even found our photographer through the MOAS, and she was incredible! Highly highly recommend.Museum of Arts and Sciences's reply:
Thank you so much Elise! It was such a pleasure working with you and Patrick!
Wishing you all the best,

Arjuna Sent on 07/02/2024Absolutely amazing venue!
This venue was absolutely fantastic!!! First, the coordinator, Doris was so professional and extremely accommodating! She didn’t miss a beat and made the entire experience smooth and easy.
The venue itself was absolutely stunning! The grand staircase ceremony room, the reception room, the courtyard and the couple extra rooms for getting ready, plus buffet room all worked so well! It’s super convenient how it’s all under one roof and very spacious! The price for the entire space was also very well priced and perfectly fair… I would say the price is a steal. I would note that they have 2 totally separate buildings (on the same property) for weddings and the one we were at was the Cici & Hyatt Brown building.
On the actual day of the wedding the entire staff (security, coordinator, other) was great and also very accommodating. They mostly stayed out of the way but also were right there if we needed anything at all! I couldn’t be more happy and thankful for their help!
I would also note that this venue allowed ample amount of time to set up! This was great because we finished early and then could relax a minute and breathe before the start of the wedding.
The location is also perfect! We wanted a beach location without the Florida elements affecting the actual wedding day. The museum is all indoors (and you have the option of the outdoor courtyard if you want). This venue is located 10 mins or less away from the beach. Tons of hotels, restaurants, VENDORS and beach access all close by! Our flower vendor and makeup/hair vendor were only 5-10 minutes from the venue. It really is conveniently placed for so many things if you are looking to wed in the Daytona Beach area!
I could probably go on and on about how amazing our wedding day was AND how amazingly perfect this venue was for us. I would highly recommend this venue for your wedding!!Museum of Arts and Sciences's reply:
Hi Arjuna & Nick,
It was an absolute pleasure working with you both to make your wedding day dreams come true! Fantastic photos, thank you for sharing and for your kind words!
Sincerely,

Layne Sent on 11/02/2023Wonderful!
I am so glad that we made the decision to have our wedding at the Museum of Arts and Sciences. We decided to have our wedding in the planetarium and then right after the ceremony have the reception in the train station. There was nothing negative about the entire experience! Our wedding was wonderful and everything went as planned. The staff was great as well!Museum of Arts and Sciences's reply:
Hi Layne! Thank you so much for your kind words. It was a real pleasure working with you and Jon on your unique and beautiful wedding!

Dream Wedding
This venue was everything we were looking for. The natural beauty of the museum was a huge selling point and made our decorating go so smoothly. And while the venue was perfect, the people made it the best experience possible. Doris was always there to answer our questions and help us with anything we needed. Couldn’t recommend the venue enough!Museum of Arts and Sciences's reply:

Rachel Sent on 08/24/2022The perfect Museum Venue
I recently had both my rehearsal dinner and ceremony/reception with the MOAS and I could not have chosen a better place! Doris the venue coordinator is a complete gem and a wonderfully attentive and kind person who helped through every step of the way. The venue was beyond my husbands and I's dream and offered us the chance to get married among the art in their permanent gallery which was breathtaking. We are so pleased with the entire experience and cannot recommend it enough. You also cannot beat the price, while venue was one of the most important aspects to us, the Cici and Hyatt Brown Art Museum offered everything we were looking for and did so at a budget friendly price! They made sure our special day was perfect!Museum of Arts and Sciences's reply:
Thank you so much for your compliments and for letting us be a part of your team to make your wedding day so special! We very much enjoyed working with you and truly appreciate your love of the museum!
Sincerely,

Taylor Sent on 05/18/2022Amazing and unique!
I knew going into wedding planning that I wanted a venue that wasn't the typical barn style that is popular. We searched and toured so many different places that were all unique in their own ways, but the Cici and Hyatt Brown Museum of Art just stuck with us after we toured it the first time. MOAS is really two separate buildings and both are amazingly beautiful and have so much character and uniqueness in themselves. You would never think of having your wedding inside of a museum, but once you see it you will not think of anywhere else!! The staircase is so beautiful (and easy to walk up and down on), and how can you be mad being surrounded by amazing art pieces that also make your pictures that much more special. Also, this venue is soooo affordable and you barely have to decorate because its a museum and has art all over!!! Doris was our event coordinator, and she was amazing as well. She quickly responded to my millions of questions and emails and helped make the process painless and stress free. I wish I could relive our day over and over again and could not be happier with our venue choice!!Museum of Arts and Sciences's reply:
Thank you so much for your kind words Taylor! It was a pure delight to work with you and Ben to make your dreams come true. I was honored to be a part of your wedding day.

The Museum was an amazing, beautiful location, and Doris was such a help throughout the planning process. We rented the Permanent Gallery, Courtyard, and Main Hall for an amazing value and couldn't have asked for better!Museum of Arts and Sciences's reply:
Thank you so much Nicole! It was such a pleasure working with you and Alec on your wedding. It was a beautiful evening!

Julie Sent on 03/16/2022A dream of a venue
My husband and I were married here in February 2022 and it was an absolute DREAM! We fell in love with this venue from our very first walk through and it was everything we had hoped plus more on our big day. We had the pleasure of working with Doris who I believe is the event/rental manager for the whole museum and she was so awesome and made everything so easy for us. She was also in touch whenever we needed and gave us great insight whenever we had questions. We had so many compliments on our venue and I can’t help but smile every time I reflect back on every moment. This venue was also much more affordable than other venues we toured. I would recommend this venue and working with Doris to everyone I know!Museum of Arts and Sciences's reply:
Thank you Julie for your kind words! Working with you and Jerrad was such a delight and your wedding was beautiful!
Wishing you all the best,

What a dream
Getting married at the Cici & Hyatt Brown Musuem of Art was absolutely perfect. The art that surrounded us was amazing PLUS we didn't have to focus on extra decor - win/win. Our guests really enjoyed walking around the galleries during cocktail hour and we loved having it all in one space. Choosing indoors in FL was wise because we had an absolute monsoon the day before - even though it was in November, you never know with our weather. It was extremely cold so our guests didn't go outside but thats alright because again, our venue was all set up and it made it super easy to pivot the game plan the day of. I cannot recommend this venue enough- excellent staff which helped a bunch along the way (letting us stop in and show our parents around a few times haha) and our photos are just perfect. They even shut down the museum at 4:00P so we could have our ceremony at 4:30p! So awesome. Thank you MOAS for your part in making our day so special! -

Lauren Sent on 10/08/2021Wonderful Experience
From Doris (event manager) to the whole staff was an absolute delight to work with. Every interaction, they were so sweet and helpful. I couldn’t recommend this vendor more! If you want a unique and beautiful venue choose them! -
Jewel Sent on 08/12/2021
From the very first time we met to tour the venue, Doris was courteous, kind, flexible, and professional.
My wedding reception at the MOAS was one of a kind and the most exciting, fun, and romantic night of our lives. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Everything was set up exactly how we planned. The Lemerand Wing was beautiful. I truly felt like a princess. Doris worked with us from beginning to end, always patient, kind, and professional. I would like to personally thank her for helping me to make my dream wedding a reality. The venue was perfect and affordable. -

Shannon Sent on 06/01/2021Beautiful Venue
This museum is a stunning venue. All of the guests who attended my wedding were in awe of the beauty. With this venue, you barely need any decoration because it has so much character and beauty already! It’s also the best price around! Everyone is nice! The event manager Doris does everything she can to make sure everything is perfect for your event. 10/10. -

Valerie Sent on 10/14/2020Beautiful place to have a wedding!
My now husband and I are so glad we chose to have our wedding at the Cici & Hyatt Brown Museum of Art! We chose the venue because we wanted to have both our ceremony and reception indoors due to unpredictable FL weather, and thought the museum was a unique and beautiful place to have a wedding. The museum is elegant and private, and includes spaces for the bridal party to get ready before the wedding. We received multiple compliments on our venue choice, and enjoyed a night we will never forget. A bonus was working with Tori the rental manager- she is friendly, very professional, and kept us updated during crazy COVID wedding planning! Choose Daytona MOAS as your venue, you won’t regret it! -

Tori is Awesome!
My wedding experience was greatly appreciated! If it wasn’t for Tori my wedding venue would’ve not been what I dreamed of. Thanks to her it was everything I’ve dreamed of. Through wedding rehearsal she was great and to the end she was the best! -
