Wonderful!

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.

Absolutely 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!!
