A Historic Masterpiece—The Absolute Ultimate Wedding Venue!

Having our wedding at the iconic Fox Theatre in Atlanta was an absolute dream come true, and we wish we could get married here every weekend! If you want a venue rooted in history, spectacular architecture, and unmatched cool factor right in the heart of Midtown, look no further. It is a world-class wedding venue that is often overlooked for private events, and it absolutely shouldn't be.
The venue's capabilities allowed us to bring our exact vision to life. We leaned heavily into the historic design, and the final look was stunning. Our layout flowed perfectly: we hosted our ceremony in the majestic Egyptian Ballroom, held cocktail hour in the gorgeous Grand Salon and Terrace, and then did a seamless room flip back into the Egyptian Ballroom for an unforgettable reception. The facilities are top-tier, and having our names up on the famous marquee was pure perfection.
What really sets the Fox apart is the incredible staff—huge thank you to Elisa, Steve, and Jes in particular! They were amazingly friendly and went completely above and beyond. They helped us coordinate everything from utilizing a piano for both the ceremony and reception to securing a Fire Marshal so we could use a haze machine for our custom lighting design.
For the unparalleled space and prime location—which is incredibly convenient for guests with so many nearby hotels—it is remarkably affordable. We also did a private photo shoot inside the theatre a few months before the wedding, which was well worth it. We couldn't be happier with our choice!

It was the perfect day at the perfect venue. I can not express how much we thoroughly enjoyed having our wedding/reception at The Fox and all of the professional people we worked with. Thanks to the beverage manager for keeping me hydrated. Thanks to Cindy Huang and Jennifer Farmer for their attention to detail in the planning process. All of you were so easy to work with and made me feel as if no one else mattered...it was MY DAY! A Special shout out to Jim, the event coordinator, who was always where he needed to be at the right time. He was amazing and made everything run so smoothly. Love you guys-thank you so much!

Our daughter's wedding reception was held at The Fox Theatre in the Grand Salon Ballroom and Terrace last Saturday night. I was so afraid that the rain was going to ruin everything and I couldn't have been anymore wrong. The entire night so magical for the bride and groom. The Grand Salon and Terrace (we had to tent) were spectacular!!! Jim Lane of The Fox was such a professional and knew just what to do with every second.
Growing up here in Atlanta, The Fox has always been so special to us and now is even more special.
Our guest were so impressed with the entire evening and danced til midnight!!!!
The marque announcing "Just Married" was the icing on the cake!!!
Jennifer Farmer went over and beyond for us and we are very appreciative!
I can't complain about ANYTHING!!! We had many out of town guests and they raved about the The Fox and the entire evening.
I would change nothing about the entire night (well maybe I would have stopped the rain earlier), but it was one of the most memorable
events in our lives.

I have nothing bad to say about The Fox Theatre when it came to my wedding. A lot of the planning was able to be done via phone and email, so the trips to walk the venue were limited. Cindy was able to answer most questions quickly and offer suggestions as to what other brides had done in the past. Jim, our rehearsal and day-of person, was fantastic! The Fox accommodated our Westie Highland Terrier being in the rehearsal, wedding, and there for pre-wedding pictures. Traffic was stopped for us as we crossed the street to get there and to get back to the hotel afterward. I am extremely impressed and felt they went above and beyond. I would highly recommend them.

Our daughter's wedding was truly a night to remember! The beautiful, historic setting of the Fox Theatre was a PERFECT venue for our out of town (and many intown) guests! The staff was very professional, easy to work with, and appreciated the importance of creating a memorable night! Every detail was handled perfectly....a well oiled machine!
The venue of the Fox also creates a special place going forwards in our daughter's Atlanta memories to share this very special place with her friends and family through time. What a great way to spend future anniversaries!
The names on the marquee, the stopped traffic on Peachtree and the wedding kiss in the middle of the road....only added to the beautiful ambiance of this very special evening. I recommend them without reservation!!!!

The Fox was the perfect venue for my daughter's wedding and reception. It is a beautiful facility and allowed us outdoor access and to use the same overall facility for the wedding and reception using two of the rooms. The sales and services staff members were all professsional and responsive and delightful to work with. I cannot imagine a better or more fantastic venue.

The Fox Theatre is the perfect reception venue! The Eygptian ballroom, Grand Salon, and Terrace are all beautiful. We were able to take some photos in the actual theatre as well and that was really special. I would highly recommend the Fox Theatre!

Our wedding was the most beautiful day, and the unique setting at the Fox was a big part of that. The staff was incredibly helpful and flexible (they let me pop in on random site visits with both mothers several times). Jim Lane was an absolute gift on our wedding day and I couldn't have asked for a better event coordinator. Everything was perfect.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
