The vineyard has so much to offer for a wedding from the beautiful cottages, different areas to relax, the magical ceremony space, and spectacular pavilion!

The staff/owners at Barn South are incredible! So easy to work with, helpful and thorough. This venue is beautiful as is, so much subtle attention to detail, but also provides an awesome canvas to showcase couples' personalities/preferences as well as favorite vendors! Being able to bring in our own alcohol and choice of caterer also saved us a lot of money. Can't recommend Barn South enough!

My daughter’s wedding at Chateau1870 was absolutely beautiful. As someone who had never planned a wedding before, I was overwhelmed at first — but the owners went above and beyond to guide me through every step of the process. Their support was genuine, consistent, and incredibly thoughtful. From the moment we started planning, it felt like they were just as invested in the day as we were. They weren’t just offering a venue — they were offering heartfelt support. Their attention to detail and willingness to help made it feel like they were planning the wedding for their own daughter. That’s how much they truly cared. The venue itself is stunning, whether you’re envisioning an elegant outdoor ceremony or a cozy, intimate indoor celebration. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect setting — or more authentic, kind-hearted people to work with. I would highly recommend Chateau1870 to anyone planning a wedding. You’ll not only get a beautiful space but a team that’s fully committed to making your special day unforgettable.

I have nothing but praise for Cenita and Macy! My daughter's wedding was May 2024 and everything surpassed our hopes and dreams of what this day would hold. Macy was easy to talk to and gave us all the information up front on costs and what they offered. There were no surprises or any hidden fees. The venue was gorgeous and Macy was on the ball keeping up with the weather all day of the wedding as it did rain and clear. Just as she informed us when we first met, we were able to decide at the last minute whether to move the ceremony inside, which we did not. She took great care of us and made my daughter and the groom feel so special. Her list of vendors is extensive and every one that we chose was amazing! Thank you Macy for everything! Your venue is the best ever and this wedding was absolutely gorgeous!

What's the Average Cost for Wedding Venues in Georgia?

Wedding venues in Georgia typically run about $6,399 which makes up roughly 14% of your total wedding budget. That's actually a pretty good deal when you compare it to the national average of $6,500-$12,000 where venues eat up about 25% of total wedding costs.

Their sophisticated technology allows remote participants to interact through synchronized lighting effects and dedicated Q&A sessions that make distance feel less significant. You can involve up to 350 remote guests in ways that go well beyond simple video streaming; they've created systems that make your distant loved ones feel truly part of your celebration with personalized touchpoints throughout the event. This approach transforms the experience from passive watching to active participation, especially meaningful for those important people who simply can't make the journey.

Willow Creek Farm offers fully handicap accessible facilities with flat terrain that eliminates mobility concerns. You'll find Lilly Creek Farm combines rustic charm with thoughtfully designed wheelchair-accessible facilities including private restrooms and plenty of natural light to create a welcoming environment.

How Far in Advance Should You Book a Georgia Wedding Venue?

Most Georgia couples start their venue search about 13 months before their wedding date with November being the busiest month for inquiries. If you've got your heart set on a popular venue, especially for weekend dates during fall or spring, you'll want to move quickly.

Popular venues during these prime times often book up 12-18 months in advance so starting early gives you the best chance at securing your dream location without having to compromise on your preferred date.

What Makes Georgia Venues Unique?

Georgia venues beautifully incorporate regional culture through distinctive experiences you won't find elsewhere. Many properties lovingly preserve their architectural details while offering all the modern amenities you'd expect.

What makes Georgia venues truly special is how they blend that famous Southern tradition with contemporary style, creating settings that feel both timeless and fresh.
