Our event spaces
The Chapel
Your Perfect Wedding
The Chapel has hosted hundreds of weddings throughout its lifetime. The stained glass windows and curved pews are the perfect setting for guests to witness your vows. Built originally in 1897 as the first town hall of Port Orange, in 1913, the building was moved and served as the Parish Hall for Grace Episcopal Church. When the church expanded in 1997, the Chapel was relocated to it’s current location here at the Estate on the Halifax.
The Gazebo
Great view for all seated guests
Our Wedding Gazebo set along the lake with a fountain backdrop is a stunning location for your outdoor ceremony. Endless options exist for incorporating your theme or color palette into your outdoor Gazebo ceremony. Drapery is commonly seen, as well as flowers and even the occasional chandelier. The more than century old oak trees located throughout the property provide abundant shade as well as gorgeous photography backdrops.
The Club Car
Train Car Lounge
What better place to keep the gentlemen entertained on wedding day, than in the fully restored 1946 Tavern Lounge Car complete with wet bar, leather recliners, a jukebox and piano. Originally named Belle Meade when it was built by the ACF Company in 1946, this car’s interior was updated and it was renamed University Club in 1952, it continued service as such until 1971. At 85 feet long, it makes quite the statement. While the train car is most commonly used for our gentlemen’s hangout on wedding day, where they can relax and get ready. The train car can also be rented for cocktail parties or corporate functions for up to 30 people.
Guest capacity

Snow White's Cottage
Cottage & Gardens
Set amidst the main garden area of giant koi ponds and the water wheel is Snow White’s Cottage, a fantastic setting for Cocktail Hour between ceremony and reception. This beautiful little cottage and the koi ponds were hand built in the 1930’s by an engineer who owned the property. The cottage was boarded up in the 1950’s and the ponds were filled in as garden planters. When they were uncovered in the 1990’s the cottage reminded everyone of the classic Snow White tale.

Best venue
The Estate On The Halifax was an absolute dream venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, the staff was incredibly responsive, professional, and helpful in answering all of our questions. On the day of the event, the team executed everything flawlessly, ensuring the space looked absolutely gorgeous and breathtaking. The intimate and elegant atmosphere they created made for an unforgettable celebration that all of our guests raved about. We are so grateful to have found this stunning venue and cannot recommend it highly enough to any couple looking for an intimate and memorable wedding experience.
Beautilful Venue
The Venue was absolutely gorgeous and the accommodations were amazing. They are family friendly and affordable. I only had one issue with the estates and that was "I scheduled a rehearsal and on the day of no one was there to open up the chapel for us, I called and emailed and never got a response. so, it highly affected us on wedding day. But, we worked through it and made it successful despite of. Other than that would of been a Great Five Star review, But, four stars and still recommendable because of its Beauty!
Wedding
This is probably the most unique and gorgeous wedding venue in Volusia county. All of our guests were blown away at how beautiful the estate was and they all enjoyed being able to walk around and explore all the estate has to offer. So many beautiful places to take pictures. It’s also an added bonus that the bride and groom have a dedicated place to get ready and a place to stay that night. It’s one less thing you have to worry about. I can’t recommend the estate and Cara and her staff enough. Our day was truly magical and so very memorable!
