The perfect experience!

Luci and Ed (the owners) attended to every detail! They were hyper-focused on us having an amazing experience and we never had to worry about anything. The venue itself is so very special!

My Dream Wedding at Glen-Ella Springs

Words can’t describe how perfect our wedding was because we chose to have it at Glen-Ella Springs. My dream wedding was intimate, fairytale-like, simple- and Luci, Ed, and Susan truly curated a day for us that fit everything I could have ever wanted. They made the entire planning process not only easy but FUN! Imagine staying at a beautiful inn, having meetings in the garden house to create the day that you’ve always dreamed of. They did whatever it took to make our dreams come true. It was absolutely magical having our guests stay on the premises- it created a whole weekend event. We were able to have incredible meals there and enjoy the pool. The rehearsal dinner was in a beautiful tent and our wedding was in the pavilion. Everything was gorgeous. The vendors that they suggest are the most amazing quality and you can relax and trust that everything will go smoothly. The flowers were beautiful, the DJ amazing, photographer outstanding. The food catered by the inn was delicious. You just feel the quality and care that Luci and Ed put into their inn and the beautiful weddings they have there. Many guests said it was the best wedding they’d been to. I am so thankful that I came across this venue for our wedding, it was the best decision we could have made. It gave us countless life-long memories (and a beautiful place to spend anniversaries). Do yourself a favor, and contact this inn for your wedding. You will not regret it 💕

Wedding- Bride

I could not recommend this venue and specifically Luci and Ed (the innkeepers) enough. Glen Ella is one of the most peaceful and beautiful places on the planet but they also have all the little details dialed in so well to make event planning seamless. It is vey obvious they love what they do. It has been two months since our wedding and we are still hearing from our guests about how incredible the venue was. Most of them are looking to go visit and stay on their own after attending the wedding and seeing Glen Ella. It truly is a hidden gem. Also the food is INCREDIBLE. Make time to have dinner at the Inn one night!

The Perfect Venue for a Mountain Wedding

Where do I start when describing Glen-Ella Springs Inn and Restaurant? Since our intimate November wedding, I have been telling people Luci and Ed and their staff feel like an extension of our family. From the very moment I began conversations with Luci, I knew our day was going to be perfect. Luci is very detail-oriented and the vendors she helped me locate were spectacular! The Inn is immaculate and cozy and the restaurant serves the best food in all of North Georgia! I cannot stress how perfect our day was and I know it was all because of the service and kindness of Luci and Ed. Our guests were just as excited as we were to return very soon!

Perfection

My daughter’s wedding was perfect! We loved that our family and bridal party was able to stay onsite. The setting is gorgeous! Luci made planning a breeze and is so organized. Every vendor was just what we would have wanted and exceeded our expectations. Our guests are still raving about the food! Both bride and groom continue to say it was the best day of their lives. What more could you ask for?

A Dream Location

Glen-Ella was beautiful! I got so many compliments from my guests. They worked with us when we had to reschedule due to COVID-19. The property was beautiful and the food was delicious.

They are fairly strict about vendors and certain policies, but were very kind in ensuring that all guidelines were met.

Glen-Ella was amazing and quite affordable for the quality and service received.

Most perfect venue and food!

I've had the opportunity to work with Glen-Ella in a professional capacity as well as in a personal capacity, and both experiences blew me away. I am a wedding planner, and I worked with Luci at Glen-Ella on a fall wedding in 2019. The whole staff was detail-oriented, friendly, fun to work with, responsive, and provided high-quality service. Their food is delicious, too. Just a month after I worked with them professionally, I got to experience the venue as a guest. My best friend got married there and we had a blast celebrating her. This time I got to stay at the Inn for the weekend- the rooms were cute and cozy. The grounds are stunning. This is one of my all-time favorite venues. I cannot recommend it more highly!

our dream wedding venue!!

My husband and I got married at Glen Ella Springs last fall and it was absolutely perfect. Luci and Ed are extremely responsive and helpful and they made the planning process a breeze! Glen Ella Springs Inn has such unique character that i'd describe as rustic yet refined. The grounds are beautiful, the food is incredible, the staff was welcoming and hospitable, and our guests had such a wonderful weekend. We love that this place serves as not only a wedding venue, but an establishment that we can visit for years to come :)

Magical experience at Glen Ella

We got married at Glen Ella in late August 2019 and the only word for the entire weekend experience is "magical." The beauty of this place cannot be overstated, and the experience they curate for your wedding weekend is unmatched. Glen Ella's appeal is not just in its gardens, meadow, and grounds (which are beautiful), or the food (which is delicious), or in its innkeepers Luci and Ed (who take the greatest care with every single thing you could possibly need the entire weekend and for the entire planning process), but it's also in the fact that you get to spend the weekend relaxing and enjoying the Inn and north Georgia with your closest family and friends. Every person we spoke with said it was the best wedding they'd attended and that is due in large part to Glen Ella and Luci and Ed. If you're looking for a relaxing, fun, magical wedding weekend, look no further.

Glen Ella 11/3/2018

Luci & Ed surpassed our expectations for our daughter's wedding at Glen Ella. Looking back there is not one thing we would have changed. As stressful as planning a long distance wedding can be Luci was always prompt in getting back with us about any questions we had. Her recommendations on vendors couldn't have been better. Thank you to our wedding coordinator Susan, DJ Rob Clark jr. and archbishop John. You all did an amazing job! One of things we loved most was being able to book the entire venue for the weekend. A very intimate setting for our family and friends. From Friday nights rehearsal dinner, to breakfast, to being able to set up lunch in the garden house. It could not have been more convenient and cozy. The food was incredible and the staff was great. We had so many friends and family tell us how delicious the food was, and how it was the best wedding they have ever attended. Thank you Luci and Ed for everything.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

I worked with Ed and Lucy on an event this May. They were so eager to help with anything that needed to be done, helping to make this wedding a true success. Glen Ella's staff was friendly and helpful. The venue was just beautiful. I would recommend working with Glen Ella springs because it was a positive experience for everyone involved. I hope to have the opportunity to work with them again soon!
