Best Venue Ever!

This venue is the best! Everything went so smoothly on our wedding day and they were there every step of the way to help with everything during planning. From the venue itself down to the food- just amazing! The vendors they work with are just the best too. I highly recommend if you are in this area looking for an all inclusive venue. So thankful for them!

Amazing wedding vendor, low-stress!

The Bradford House did both our wedding and rehearsal dinner. Everything was absolutely seamless for both events, from start to finish. If you are a bride and want a low-stress wedding, the Bradford House is the way to go. The food was delicious for both events, service was phenomenal, and all the preferred vendors work together seamlessly. The day of my wedding was very relaxing, due to all the help I had from them. They are extremely responsive to emails and are very flexible depending on your desired style for your event. I would highly recommend them.

Our Dream Wedding Come True

Where do I even begin!? Jeremy and I are so glad we chose Bradford House and Gardens for our wedding!
Everything was amazing! From the planning process to execution, Cyndi and Laurie were there every step of the way! They made sure everything was EXACTLY how I wanted it! During the planning process, they were very helpful and responsive. Every time I had a question (and there were a ton), they answered right away! They made us feel comfortable in a fairly overwhelming time!
And, the day of … wow! They were on top of it! They were everywhere making sure everything was going smoothly and perfectly. One thing that really sticks out: they always made it a point to find me and check in and see if I needed anything. During the cocktail hour after the ceremony, while we were all taking photos, they were right there on the sidelines with hors d’oeuvres and a drink stepping in to give me a bite or a sip whenever I needed it! That really stuck out to me!
And, I wish I could remember the name of the guy that served us dinner and directed the cake cutting, because he was AWESOME!

The venue is gorgeous. The staff is incredible. You cannot go wrong with Bradford House and Gardens! Thank y’all, so much, for giving us the day we had always dreamed of!

You will not regret booking Bradford House & Gardens!

Debbie and her team are incredible! They made everything so easy to plan and the day of entirely stress free! They anticipate and plan for everything, so there are no surprises. The grounds are beautiful and they were able to accommodate all of our guest easily (at least thats what it looked like to me)! People still talk about the apps we chose for happy hour and we just had our top layer of cake- it was still amazing!

My Dream Wedding~~May 11, 2019

The Bradford House is the perfect place to have your wedding. We got married May 11, 2019, and it could not have been more perfect! Debbie and her staff are super friendly and eager to make your special day everything you hoped it would be. With catering included, there are so many options for reception food. We also didn’t have to worry about any of the linens, chairs, overlays, or even the DJ because all of these were included. The house itself is gorgeous and holds so much character. We loved having a bridal and a groom’s suite to get ready in because this made it easy to bring wardrobes the night before so it makes the big day seamless. It was supposed to slant rain all day with an overcast, so Debbie worked hard to create an option for the ceremony and reception space. However, the rain cleared and the sun came out in time for the ceremony which we were so happy that it did because the greenery outside is absolutely beautiful! We had a “woodsy and greenery” themed wedding, so this just added to the detailing and the natural setting of the ceremony. We then had dinner inside the house where we had our own private space to eat before greeting the guests. The staff then flipped the ceremony space out in the pavilion to the reception space with a dance floor, and we danced the night away. We love our wedding day and wouldn’t change one detail. Thank you to the Bradford House for helping make our dream wedding!

Stop searching... THIS IS IT!

I absolutely LOVED working with Debbie and her team! I initially had selected a different venue and wanted to only hire them for catering, but once we visited the venue we just knew this was the place! Practically all inclusive, this venue was perfect! We had our ceremony in the pavilion, the cocktail hour in the gorgeous garden, dinner inside the house, and then cake and dancing back in the pavilion. They work within your budget and took care of every single detail, even the small things! The best part is 100% the food! Guests are still talking about how wonderful everything tasted! They keep saying it was the BEST wedding they had ever been too! The venue is kinda far from the city of Atlanta where we live so I chose to book rooms near the Mall of GA which turned out perfect for guests. If you are getting married in the Atlanta area, stop looking and check out this venue. You will thank me later!

Couldn't Ask for a Better Venue!

From the very beginning, the Bradford House was amazing. We got the Gold Package, which includes the dinner, champagne toast, table clothes, an amazing DJ named Ricky, the wedding cake, and so much more. They were attentive to want we wanted. Susan did an amazing job coordinating our wedding the day of. I couldn't imagine a better place to get married. Everything went so smoothly and my husband and I were able to enjoy our day. I highly recommend the Bradford House and Gardens. So beautiful and wonderful!
