We had our wedding at The Stanley House, and truly could not have asked for a better experience. We found The Stanley House after making the decision to move our wedding location within a year of our date, and from the very beginning, Sherry and Meg were absolutely amazing. They were warm, helpful, and supportive throughout the entire process, making what could have been a stressful transition feel easy and manageable. Their wedding guide was incredibly well thought out—easy to follow, covering almost everything we needed, and offering just the right amount of choice for two very overwhelmed people. We were so grateful for their flexibility in accommodating our date, as well as the convenience of their included vendors. Everything exceeded our expectations. The food was delicious, the cake was perfect, and the overall experience was seamless. A special shoutout to Pavel, our photographer, who was hands-down our favorite vendor. He made us feel completely comfortable, kept the energy up all day, and captured moments we’ll cherish forever. We absolutely love our photos. The location is another huge highlight—being right next to Marietta Square made it so easy for us and our guests to continue celebrating after the wedding. It’s just a one-block walk, which was incredibly convenient. The house itself was perfect for our needs. Having space for our wedding party to stay onsite was a priority, and The Stanley House delivered. The rooms were beautiful and comfortable—especially the Savannah and Buckhead rooms on the second floor, which were standout favorites. One thing that really stood out was how quickly the team handled an unexpected issue. When we arrived, the AC was out on the upper floors, and Sherry had the owner there to fix it within an hour. We were so appreciative of how quickly and professionally it was resolved. While onsite parking is limited, the overflow lot made things very easy, and our guests had no trouble finding convenient parking nearby. A couple of tips for future couples: They may conduct tours while you’re booked—we had one the morning of our wedding. It didn’t disrupt us at all, but it’s worth giving your guests a heads up. Also, the Vidalia suite (recommended for the couple) is beautiful, but the clawfoot tub/shower setup can be a bit tricky for everyday use. If having an easy shower is important, the Buckhead room has a great walk-in shower and worked perfectly for us to use. Overall, I cannot recommend The Stanley House enough—whether you’re looking for a place to stay or the perfect wedding venue. It made our entire weekend everything we hoped for and more. We’re already looking forward to coming back for our anniversary.

This place is beautiful! The staff was very helpful and polite as well. They go over everything in detail and they are able to tell you about things you wouldn't think about. Very knowledgeable when planning events!

Susan Lewis and all the Staff at Olde Towne did an OUTSTANDING job with my husband's 80th Birthday party (around 40 guests). Everyone went above and beyond to make the party a wonderful success! Susan's valuable help all along the way made getting everything in place easy - everything from how to set up the room, recommendations for entertainment, and helping me pick the menu that would fit my guests and my budget. (Note: I had gluten free, chocolate free, and vegetarian requirements for some guests and guests aged 11-84. The Chef did an excellent job accommodating!). Olde towne is the way to go for your special events! Highly recommend and would definitely use them again.

We had the best wedding, and the staff at Saratoga had so much to do with that. They made everything look so easy and perfect at the same time. Kelley was always very accomodating, with the best attitude, and the day of the event every single person that was working that day made us feel so special. The food was delicious!!! All of our guests complimented us on the food, the venue, the people, etc. Our wedding was at the Chastain Horse Park and we 100% recommend it. THE BEST!!!!!!!!! We could bring our own alcohol, which saved us lots of money and we could have the drinks we wanted, the rental fee is tax deductible. We couldn’t have asked for anything better, they made it perfect for us!!!

We are so so glad we went with The Whitlock Inn for our wedding reception! If the last time you saw it was before it was remodeled late 2020, you need to go see it again. This venue is so beautiful, charming and elegant. The ladies, Kathy, Janice, Lauren and Rhonda are amazing! They are so sweet and every time you talk to them you feel special. They were always available to answer any questions we had, before booking them and after booking them. Everything we discussed with Lauren and Janice on wedding details, happened just as discussed on wedding day! We had our ceremony at our church but had cocktail hour and reception here. We had a bad experience at another venue we explored before we found the Whitlock Inn and when I met Kathy for the tour it was so touching to meet someone who cares about you and your day, you could say she reinstated my faith in people who are in the wedding industry. In other words, if you are looking for a classy, elegant, charming and a touch of the South, go with The Whitlock Inn, you won’t be disappointed!

Everyone complimented us on how beautiful the grounds were. The coordinators were so helpful and did everything I needed on the day of. Food was amazing! Our guests loved the brisket and the appetizers during cocktail hour were so good.

This is my home church so I really wanted to get married there. Make sure to plan at least 6 months in advance because there is a lot of preparation that they make you go through. The church is really pretty though. They also set you up with a wedding coordinator and the musician for the ceremony. I really liked that I was able to get everything that I wanted.

Danielle was amazing at helping us put everything together and managing all of our day of needs. It was an absolutely beautiful place to have a wedding. Our guests had a great time and the food was delicious.

I cannot say enough nice things about our reception at the Marietta/Cobb Muesum of Art. The event service provided was amazing. Everyone was complimenting every aspect of the reception -- the food, the venue, the service, the beauty, the easy-going feel. The food did not dissapoint -- we did a southern menu that was buffet style where the guests could go back for more and more. Our food included a pecan cheese roll, stacks of fresh fruit, roasted vegetables with goat cheese, barbeque pork tarts, fried chicken bites, fried green tomatoes, and steak skeweres. Not to mention a grits bar with two types of grits and toppings as well as a carving station with sirloin. As a born southerner, I love all of these items but everyone couldn't stop saying enough. I wanted to sit there and eat instead of talking to all of my guests =) Thankfully, the wedding coordinator Rhonda had arranged for two heaping plates of food and 10-15 minutes of alone time so that we could catch a breath to eat and relax before the madness began. Rhonda is the contact for the Museum and I certainly can't say enough nice things about her as well. She is a wonderful resource for all things weddings and thinks about every tiny detail. She was always accessible by phone and e-mail. 4 months before the wedding, we met with her to go over what food we wanted, what linen colors on the tables, how we wanted the colors for the buffett, if we wanted a wedding cake and how we wanted it, and a million other details. Carriage House Catering/Event Staff took care of everything -- they charge you one price that includes it all including tipping, etc. They clean up. This is one of the only caterers I found that for the wedding cake gave me options: 1) I could get my wedding cake from them OR 2) I could bring in a cake from somewhere else without penalty, they would plate the cake and serve for no extra fee, AND they would have given me back the cake amount from the cost if I didn't have them make it. It was a lovely day and I felt that not only was it everything that I hoped for for my reception, the value was tremendous. They have menus to work with any budget. I could have spent much more on a plated dinner but I found the buffet menu preferable (and less expensive!). Can't say enough. Rhonda as an event manager and Jeff as the caterer, they are an amazing team!

Chatelle and Jill are absolutely amazing!!!! They were so amazing to work with and the space is absolutely breathtaking! They made my friends wedding perfect and went way above and beyond to make it perfect! Thank you so much ladies for being so awesome!! Lisa the caterer was absolutely amazing as well!
