When you step onto the grounds of The Banyan Estate in Malabar, Florida, you can’t help but feel the magic. The century-old architecture, lush grounds, and elegant interior spaces make it one of Brevard County’s most treasured wedding venues. And now, under the care of its new owners Daniela and Eric Frankel, the estate has entered a beautiful new chapter.

A Venue with Heart at the Helm

Daniela has always had a passion for weddings and events. For her, it’s never been just about logistics — it’s about love, connection, and creating unforgettable moments for couples and families. With her eye for detail, calming presence, and warm personality, she makes planning feel effortless and exciting.

Her favorite part of running The Banyan Estate isn’t the grand celebrations themselves, but the relationships formed along the way. Daniela pours so much care into each couple’s journey that by the time the big day arrives, clients often feel more like friends. That sense of genuine connection is what sets The Banyan Estate apart.

Together, Daniela and Eric bring a balance of professionalism, warmth, and fun to the estate. Their meticulous planning ensures every detail is flawlessly executed. It’s a rare combination — one that gives couples the confidence to fully relax and savor every moment of their celebration.

She can even “alter” your dress on the fly too! A bride wanted to cut the entire train off of her stunning wedding dress after formal photos were over and use it for swaddling future children. (Such a cool idea) That’s A LOT harder to do seamlessly than you’d think. Daniela freaking CRUSHED it!!! So fast. So even. Just complete laser focus and skill. Maybe one of our most favorite weddings to date!

A Seamless Wedding Experience

What makes The Banyan Estate even more unique is the Frankels’ deep roots in the event industry. Alongside the venue, they own and operate two thriving businesses that elevate the guest experience:

Custom Creations for All Occasions – Offering custom décor, floral design, and artistic installations that transform spaces into breathtaking works of art.

Rent Your Events – A curated event rental company with statement furniture, specialty glassware, and design essentials that pull everything together.

Because these services are in-house, couples benefit from a seamless, cohesive wedding design — with fewer vendors to juggle and a unified vision for their day.

Why Couples Love The Banyan Estate

Whether you’re planning an intimate micro-wedding or a grand celebration of 150+, The Banyan Estate was built to handle events with grace and style. Indoor and outdoor ceremony options provide flexibility, meaning even a surprise Florida rain shower can’t dampen the day.

With The Frankels leading the way, no detail is left to chance. From the flow of the timeline to the flicker of candlelight at dinner, every aspect of the celebration is thoughtfully planned.
