Flight

Orlando International Airport

Orlando International Airport is about an hour and 15 minutes from New Smyrna Beach. This is the largest airport near New Smyrna Beach and flights here tend to be cheaper than into the local airports. Cars can be easily rented from here.

Flight

Daytona Beach International Airport

Daytona Beach International Airport is small, and just 25 minutes from New Smyrna Beach. Flights can be a little more expensive when flying in here, but not as bad in the summer. If you're looking to save some money, you can Uber from the airport to New Smyrna Beach instead of renting a car. The Uber ride one way is about $30. Once in NSB you can walk or Uber everywhere.

Flight

Orlando Sanford International Airport

Not to be confused with Orlando International Airport! This airport is small like Daytona, and it's just 45 minutes from New Smyrna Beach. In the past, Allegiant has offered a direct flight for $48 round trip from Albany International Airport to Orlando Sanford. So, you may get lucky and score a deal!

Flight

Orlando Melbourne International Airport

Orlando Melbourne International Airport is located about an hour and a half from New Smyrna Beach. We've never flown into here, but it's an option.

If you’re looking to book more than the 2 nights, those nights must be booked separately.

Hotel

SpringHill Suites by Marriott New Smyrna Beach

Unfortunately, this Marriott does not offer wedding blocks, so we don't have a certain amount of rooms set aside, but the hotel is offering 15% off for anyone who books for our wedding. It's brand new, on the water and offers suite style rooms, ideal for bigger groups or families. With our discount, a suite with a king bed and sofa bed is around $250 a night, suite with two queens and a sofa bed $254 a night, and suite with partial ocean view, 2 queens and sofa bed $297. Just click on "view" below and you will be directed to the page. This hotel is located on the water and on Flagler Avenue, the main strip of bars and restaurants in NSB. It's about 10 minutes driving from our wedding venue. There is a 2 night minimum stay required for Saturday bookings.

Shuttle

Shuttle bus

August 8, 2020 4:00 pm - 10:45 pm

A shuttle bus will pick up guests at the SpringHill Suites by Marriott New Smyrna Beach at 4 p.m. the day of the wedding, and immediately head to the Hampton Inn New Smyrna Beach for pickup and then drop off at our venue, the Brannon Center. The shuttle bus will again pickup at the SpringHill Suites by Marriott New Smyrna Beach promptly at 4:30 p.m. and then head to the Hampton Inn New Smyrna Beach for 4:35 p.m. We ask guests arrive early to the shuttle bus to ensure everyone makes it to the venue on time to be seated. Guests not staying at the hotels can still go to the hotels to be picked up. At the end of the night, the shuttle bus will drop guests off at the same hotels.

Rental Car

Rental Cars

There are plenty of rental car options at all of the airports. One of our tips, if you don't need a large car, select the "managers special" for your car choice. You don't know the car you are getting until you arrive, but you save a nice chunk of money on your rental (when we did this, Hertz ended up giving us a sports car!). Renting a car is not necessary if you plan on staying in New Smyrna Beach for your stay. Everything in town is within walking distance or just a short Uber ride away, with the average cost between $5-$8. If you do want to kayak, that Uber ride from downtown NSB will be a little more expensive, around $18.
