About This Vendor

A Waterfront Venue in Bay County

Capt. Anderson’s Event Center is a family-oriented harbor wedding venue located in Panama City, FL. This destination has been welcoming tourists to fish at its picturesque marina and make timeless memories since 1957. Nestled along the Grand Lagoon, just moments from white sand beaches that melt into the Gulf of Mexico, the property offers a luxurious waterfront experience. Combining indoor and outdoor event spaces, the venue is ideal for those looking for a romantic getaway far from the stress of daily life. Capt. Anderson’s Event Center provides a number of multi-purpose rooms for all your wedding needs. Outside, you and your partner can exchange vows in front of the marina, where the tranquil waves and spectacular sunsets will paint a stunning backdrop. After the ceremony, the observation deck is available for sipping drinks with loved ones in an open-air setting. Dinner and dancing are hosted in the Captain’s Quarters ballroom, a spacious banquet hall featuring large windows, breathtaking views, and seating for 350 guests. The adjacent Davis Hall and Anderson Hall hold 63 and 69 people, respectively, and can be configured as get-ready suites, ceremony spots, or cocktail hours. Rental of Capt. Anderson’s Event Center comes with a full prep kitchen that your chosen caterer is welcome to use. A functioning bar is also included and is ready to be stocked with all your favorite liquors, wines, and brews. The venue provides tables, chairs, and linens for your dining convenience and the staff will help with setup and cleanup. All three banquet halls are equipped with audio and sound systems that can be used by bands and DJs or during the toasts.

Coordinator
Hello, My name is Chelsea Ray and I'm the Event Coordinator for Capt. Anderson's Event Center. After Marketing and Advertising for Capt. Anderson's Marina for the past 3 years, I was given the opportunity to have a role in the newest, waterfront event center in Bay County. Capt. Anderson’s is a family-oriented tourist destination focused on a desire to provide memorable experiences. Those long-held and cherished experiences are what sparked the idea to offer additional memorable moments. Capt. Anderson’s Event Center is a venue that offers the best facility for all of life’s celebrations.
