The Best Day and Best Venue
SHG did an amazing job with my wedding! I loved how they attended to every detail and tailored it to what we needed for our big day. The food was great and everyone enjoyed the venue! There are so many different spots for pictures and it is definitely a beautiful view. I couldn't have survived wedding planning or the wedding day itself if it weren't for Angie and Chelsea and the rest of the amazing staff!!! I highly recommend this venue to anyone who wants to keep wedding planning easy by using one vendor for everything. They truly are experts and know how to plan it all perfectly.

Absolutely stunning location. The perfect mix of classic Southern bohemian. The atmosphere at Southern House & Garden is perfect for today's brides, looking for something unique and definitively beautiful. We definitely recommend them.
I love to work with Southern House & Garden on their weddings. Angie, Teri and Chelsea work very hard to ensure that I know the details of their client's wedding, not just the music selections, but also the formality and style of the wedding. They are professional, yet service-oriented and adaptive to their client's needs but also to other vendors. I highly recommend Southern House & Garden to anyone looking for a beautiful place to get married or have their special event.
