What Does a Luxury All-Inclusive Wedding in New Smyrna Beach Actually Cost?
What Does a Luxury All-Inclusive Wedding in New Smyrna Beach Actually Cost?

Is The Grand 721 expensive?

The Grand 721 is a luxury historic wedding venue in New Smyrna Beach, and our signature White Glove Wedding Experience begins at $46,000.

While this investment reflects a premium level of service and inclusions, many couples find it comparable — and often more efficient — than booking a venue and vendors separately in Florida’s coastal wedding market.

Our White Glove package is designed for couples who value seamless execution, elevated hospitality, and a fully curated celebration rather than managing multiple moving pieces themselves.

Luxury isn’t about excess — it’s about intention, experience, and ease.
