A stunning venue for special events. Hosted my wedding there and it was the perfect spot for an intimate wedding and our guests loved the venue! My husband and I stayed the night before the wedding at the Gingerbread House and it was great. The rooms on the second floor had been renovated and they were inviting and cozy.
The venue manager Ann was really nice, accommodating, and replied fast to any inquiries; unfortunately, I didn't get to meet her in person due to an emergency but she made sure that we had everything we needed for our event. The bar staff was fantastic as well. I highly recommend The Gingerbread House, it's the perfect venue!

The Gingerbread House is lovely!
The Gingerbread House is a fantastic place to hold an event! The architecture inside and out is beautiful. The size of the space is perfect for a small gathering. Ann and her staff were very accommodating throughout the process of booking, planning and the day of our wedding. They’re quick to respond to questions and concerns! The bar staff they hire are also wonderful! We highly recommend using this space for any event!

My wedding was PERFECT!
I booked our wedding at the Gingerbread House before the Sarah/Michelle switch over. I was initially concerned because I read the past reviews about lack of response from Sarah….but sometime in the beginning of 2021, Michelle had taken over as coordinator and she was absolutely amazing! I am very type-A and need to be on top of everything and plan ahead, etc. Michelle was excellent at keeping me updated on everything she was doing, communicating with me, and answered my questions pretty much immediately. When it came down to it, I wasn’t stressed at all because I had no doubt in my mind that everything would be perfect….and IT WAS! From my cake, to my flowers, to the venue and the ceremony - I could not have asked for a better venue or coordinator. It was easy and beautiful! If you read past reviews, don’t let that get in the way of choosing this beautiful venue! I didn’t really work with the past coordinator, but I can tell you that Michelle is the best and will make your day AMAZING! ♥️

Everything was Perfect!
Thank you so very much to The Gingerbread House for hosting our wedding this weekend. Our 80 guests were blown away! Sarah was great to work with- and on the day of Amanda took charge of every detail and executed everything perfectly. If I would have asked her for a pink glitter pony minutes before the ceremony, you would have seen one prancing down the aisle and I would never be the wiser of how hard it was to get! We basically ended up having the run of the house for the entire weekend, which made everything so much easier and less stressful! Our guests raved about the food, which was a special vegetarian menu they made to accommodate us. The DJ was great for both the ceremony and reception. Everything ran smoothly and on time, and everyone had a great time in this beautiful old house. Thank you!

So thankful to have found their Elopement Package online. It was the perfect venue for our small wedding. It was even more fun to have my family stay at the house so we didn't have to travel far. Sarah was great to work with and Amanda was a wonderful help on our wedding day. Besides a few photos online I had not seen the venue before we arrived in Savannah. Sarah answered all of my questions I had and made me feel very comfortable with my choice. I'm sure it's wonderful for a larger wedding as well but the all in one package for the smaller wedding/elopement is the perfect way to book a wedding!

Sarah the manager of The Gingerbread House was fantastic and very accommodating. She was prompt in answering any questions that I had and went above and beyond. The venue is spectacular and worked great for our wedding of 43. Sarah is committed to making your experience at the venue memorable and delivers on that promise. I can't say enough good things about this venue.

I've been working with Gingerbread house since last year when my husband and I fell in love with the pics online. We started out with one coordinator and this year started working with Sarah. Both coordinators were great but Sarah has been so good with us. She is always available. And I really liked that she was able to help us make some changes within our chosen package to make sure our event is tailored to us. She always has a great attitude. And we were previously told we could only have 20 guests including us - but she was willing to accomodate additional guests for a minimal cost. Unfortunately we are unable to use this venue but would still recommend anyone looking for an all inclusive package at one of Savannah's charming historical homes. This place is perfect for a beautiful southern destination wedding.

The Gingerbread House served as a gorgeous location for both our ceremony and reception. The courtyard in the back is quaint, inviting, and was perfect for our group of 50. Indoors, there was plenty of space for food, dancing, and entertaining. Would definitely recommend this house for wedding and reception!
