We couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding reception in November. It was very budget friendly and had so many great features, including the freedom to choose your own catering or cater the party yourself. Carly the camp director was beyond helpful and very communicative from the start. She answered my many emails and phone calls and gave great suggestions. Franklin Hall is very spacious inside, and has a nice large deck outside and a grassy area for people to spread out. They had plenty of tables for us to use for food and seating for guests, as well as table cloths to rent for a very reasonable price. Being able to set up the day before made the day of the reception much less stressful. The amphitheater was perfect for our band. Being able to offer camper cabins for our friends to stay in was so convenient, since there aren't many lodging options very close by, or lyft or uber availability. Our guests were very impressed with the venue. I would highly recommend Camp Kiwanis for any event.

RLM Affairs Wedding Venue was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding day. The quality of their work and the overall value was exceptional - the venue was intimate, beautiful, and detailed, with a truly romantic garden setting. Resia took care of everything, including the set up of our personal decor items and take down afterwards. RLM even let us store our wedding items at the venue before the big day and schedule a pick-up for afterwards, which was so convenient. The day itself was completely stress-free, and we had so much fun celebrating with our 88 guests - the space was just the right size. While there was a bit of a "trust the process" leading up to the wedding where we didn't hear too much, the RLM team was always available to answer our questions, which was especially helpful since this was our first time planning a wedding. We are happy with how our wedding day turned out thanks to the incredible team at RLM Affairs!

We found Koury Farms through Zola, and based on the profile it checked most of our boxes: within an hour of ATL airport, outdoor and indoor space, beautiful scenery for photos, spacious bridal suite, onsite parking, decor included, and no excess fees. After scheduling and attending our tour (7am on a Saturday morning with a 60 minute drive was rough but well worth it), we found out that it's a small family business that prides themselves on transparent pricing, not having deals with vendors to get more money, and not taking advantage of inflating costs just because it's a wedding. They were also able to help with planning, at a high level. After a week, we decided not to look into any more venues and book with Koury Farms. For the cost of the venue (especially in the off season), it was worth every penny. They even did a small Black Friday deal, which saved us a little extra money. We attended a few prop-and-play events that helped us find vendors and pick decor. At least 80% of the decor we used was theirs, and they handled the setup and a large portion of the cleanup. We opted for the day-of coordinator, and although we had to do more work than anticipated with a day-of coordinator (for example, we had to reach out to the vendors to tell them what time to arrive, a lot of logistical decisions I was hoping she could help out with fell on us, sometimes sending requested follow-ups after calls took a few days, and just in general a lot of things that to her seemed like common knowledge or were things we should've already known/thought about that had us making a few quick decisions), the value really came through during the wedding. I was not a high-stress bride and really didn't care much about how the decor came together and let her know that, and she matched my vibe all throughout the wedding day, which was great and really kept me relaxed. We didn't rehearse until the morning of, which ended up being fine. The main consideration are you can't bring anything the day before to keep at the venue and you have to be out of the bridal villa by 5pm. Overall, our day came together perfectly, and if we had to do it again, we would pick Koury Farms!

The Gillen House Bed and Breakfast was everything we hoped for in a wedding venue. The property is absolutely beautiful, and its peaceful setting made it feel special from the moment we arrived. Staying in the bridal suite the night before and getting ready in the main house made the day feel seamless. The built-in bar inside a converted barn shed was a charming touch that made our cocktail hour even more memorable. The outdoor ceremony in front of the forest, with the wildflower meadow in the background, was stunning and exactly what we envisioned. The backyard was perfect for our tented reception, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful and unique the venue was. The Gillen House exceeded our expectations and gave us a wedding day we’ll always treasure. If you’re planning a wedding, I can’t imagine a better place to celebrate such a special occasion.

My husband and I got married at White Laurel Estate on May 13, 2023! WLE truly made our wedding dreams come true. This was the first place we toured when starting our search and immediately after visiting, we knew it was the one. Jay Rogers was so welcoming and accommodating throughout the entire wedding planning process. There are not many venue owners that are as helpful and willing to answer questions in such a timely response in the way that Jay did. The grounds are stunning and make for the most beautiful photos - with the rolling hills, black & white accents, and both indoor/outdoor options. We rented both of the cottages for the night of the wedding and are so glad that we did - they were beautifully decorated and spacious to accommodate our wedding party following the wedding. Jay, his wife, son, and daughter-in-law were there to set up, ensure we had everything the way that we wanted it, and to shuttle us around on the golf cart for our photos in the fields during cocktail hour and we truly appreciated that! We are so sad it is over but would not change a single thing, thanks to White Laurel Estate. I highly recommend this venue to any and every couple on their search for THE one!
