BOOK this venue!!! If you are dreaming of a European intimate estate at Georgia rates that has outdoor options galore (including a rain solution that is a beautiful pavilion) + flexibility around where to have your cocktail hour and an ability to accommodate ethnic / multi-cultural cuisine + a ballroom that literally looks like it's from Beauty and the Beast, Glendalough will be your dream venue.

Advantages:
-Giant parking lot for shuttles and cars
-Giant bridal suite
-Everything is real, not sterile hotel vibes - you will need less flowers because the entire villa has trees, flowers, trellises
-Out of town guests ~30minutes from airport and 40 minutes from ATL proper
-Great restaurants and plenty of hotels (Hiltons, Hamptons, nearby)
-AMY is awesome, responsive, fair, and no nonsense, which you will appreciate in the planning process

Our experience with Glendalough was fantastic. The photos from our wedding day insane (some look like we are in a forest for our First Look) and all our guests were like this is a special place. Our only issue is that we were a little bit confused how the rates and catering broke down for our arrangement but we also were so grateful that they negotiated a way for us to bring in outside catering for our HINJEW (yes Indian and Jewish) wedding that had food complexities. The Glendalough kitchen appetizers were DELICIOUS (coconut chicken bites!) and we got compliments on how big the dance floor was and the space for a Baarat as well for my Indian brides. We somehow got so lucky and no rain but even if we did, we knew there would be a gorgeous covered pavilion we could utilize. We are so glad our planner found this venue and will post photos once we get them!

This was probably the best venue I could have had for our wedding (compared to stories from friends and their venues), the price is amazing for what is offered, courtni and everyone else were absolutely amazing and went above and beyond to make sure our wedding went perfectly it was literally the wedding of our dreams. We had them cater as well and the price for that was really good, not to mention the food was delicious! I would highly recommend!

The wedding experience was amazing . The staff the day of the wedding were remarkable and responsive as as well as professional. Our work with Amy prior to the wedding was great and she was always very responsive. Everyone enjoyed the venue and the service staff were awesome. This venue also worked very well with other vendors. Great job Glendalough Manor!!!

Glendalough manor was the first place my family and I looked at when searching for a wedding venue. We didn’t have much time until the wedding so we went ahead and booked it because we fell in love with the scenery. This place is absolutely beautiful and had everything I wanted! The ladies we worked with were amazing and knew exactly what they were doing. They had the wedding scheduled by the minute so everything would flow nicely and we wouldn’t be rushing or stressing out. They really made us feel like we were all family. There was absolutely nothing about my wedding day that I did not like. I recommend this venue to anyone and a special shout-out to Jena for helping make my day perfect !

Glendalough is the absolute Best wedding venue! The world class staff, planners and onsite service team are attentive, professional and made our dreams come true!! We would certainly recommend Glendalough to anyone who is planning a wedding or special event. They are the Best of the Best!

This was the perfect venue for a baby shower I hosted for over 100 guest. This venue sells itself. The staff was very professional from the start and pleasant the entire time. Although it was a baby shower I had several guest say they felt like they were at a wedding reception. You can’t go wrong having an event at this venue.

I had visited several venues prior to almost literally stumbling upon Glendalough one Sunday, and I could only pray it was available: it was and it was below budget! From the price of a full service venue, to the options included in the price, to the absolutely gorgeous facility, we consider it a true blessing to have found this venue! Aimee was perfect in getting everything started and Jena's professional approach ensured everything was executed seamlessly. The venue... I'm still getting compliments from friends and family and I provided minimum decorations - the essentials were included! Our ceremony was outdoors while the reception was inside: simply perfect! We also had autonomy in our selection of vendors which only made it more special. Highly recommended!

Loved working with Jenna and staff! They were very easy to work with and went above and beyond my expectations. I also loved that they had a backup option so rain or shine the wedding is on with an indoor option for the ceremony in case of rain. The food was great and everyone enjoyed the quesadilla and coconut chicken as the appetizers. Also, the venue helped me locate other vendors through their preferred vendors list instead of me having to find my own vendors. I would highly recommend this place to other brides!

The entire team at Glendalough Manor helped provide guidance as we planned our wedding. The ceremony and reception were lovely and went off without a hitch. The scenery for the ceremony was colorful and the reception hall was excellent for our wedding reception. Would definitely recommend Glendalough Manor for a wedding or any event.

We first booked Glendalough in January 2019 for our wedding in June 2020—of course, we ended up postponing a full year for pandemic reasons. That meant we ended up working with Glendalough—and Jena, the venue coordinator, in particular—for two and a half years. They were extremely understanding and accommodating when we decided to postpone our wedding. Jena so kindly responded to my every question over that timeframe. She definitely prioritized responding to my emails as our date neared (as was specified in the contract), which was a huge relief. I will also add that, on the day of the wedding, she was an incredible advocate and resource for me as the bride. She was very organized and made sure I had water and snacks as needed, time and space to breathe and cool down, and making sure I was able to scurry away from view when guests started arriving while we were finishing pictures before the ceremony. Aside from the people, the venue itself is truly beautiful. We got non-stop compliments on how pretty everything was. We didn’t do any added decorating (aside from very simple centerpieces on the table). We relied entirely on the natural beauty of the outdoor space, which is unmatched. The ballrooms inside are also already so nice that they really don’t need much if you aren’t looking to do much decorating. We also used both the bride & groom getting ready spaces upstairs. The bridal suite (Molly’s Place) was the perfect little retreat for the bridesmaids to do our finishing touches and as a holding space for us, especially considering how hot it was outside. I will also add that the way Glendalough works with preferred vendors took a lot of the planning logistics off us, and since we didn’t use a wedding planner, it made a huge difference for bringing the whole event together. Jena very reliably managed all the preferred vendors. The food was good—we got compliments from several of our guests—but it wasn’t the highlight for us. There were small imperfections that came up, as is likely the case anywhere. But if you want a venue that will wow your guests, while also working with a team you can trust will give you peace of mind, I cannot recommend Glendalough enough.
