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.

Beyond our dreams

The Club Continental was the ideal location for our wedding. It was gorgeous with the perfect backdrop for photos, we did not have to provide too much extra décor due to the natural beauty outside and inside due to the esthetics of the building. We were able to work with Bonnie to reserve rooms for our bridal party and both sets of parents so everyone was able to stay onsite for the wedding which was GREAT, especially since we planning the wedding from Hawaii (I am military). Carla was a dream to work with. She answered all our questions promptly, gave us great advice to help us plan and prepare, and we were able to do all of the wedding organization ourselves up until one month before the wedding when we hired a Month of Coordinator. Overall, the Club Continental is FANTASTIC and worth the value. Plus, the food was delicious (my guests enjoyed it and they packed up plates for my husband and I to have later that evening).
