The Blacksmith Shop
About
The Blacksmith Shop is a wedding venue located in Macon, Georgia. This historic and restored 1890 venue has served many purposes over the years. In the year 2000, this blacksmith shop and carriage facility was renovated in order to provide couples with a more modern and updated space where they could exchange their vows. However, even though this venue now contains modern amenities, it still features many of the original elements. As you exchange your vows surrounded by the original handmade bricks and heart pine beams, you will be able to experience this historic Southern landmark.
Facilities and Capacity
At the Blacksmith Shop, you will have over 10,000 square feet of space to use for your rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception. This unique venue features a main hosting hall indoors that you can enjoy with up to 300 of your friends and family. This space is filled with industrial chic touches, from the brick lined walls to the arched doorways. Couples can also use this space for dancing or dinner. If you are planning an outdoor ceremony or would just like an outdoor space to relax in with your guests, you can use the Courtyard on the property. Here you and your guests will find formal gardens, which provide a lovely backdrop for not only your wedding, but also your photographs. This venue also contains a Blacksmith Shop’s Bar perfect for after-ceremony cocktails and refreshments, and a full-service kitchen. Brides will also receive a separate bridal suite space which includes a vanity area, sitting room, and more.

The Blacksmith Shop is one of my favorite venues to work at. Aubrey makes it easy for the vendors to setup and load out. I've never felt rushed in any way. He is always friendly, ready to help and an all around nice guy! You can't do better than him!!
