About

On WeddingWire since 2011

The Mackey House is a historic wedding venue in Savannah, Georgia. A family-owned colonial-style mansion located just minutes from downtown Savannah, this venue also features a pond, a well-manicured garden, and a shaded pavilion. Charming and elegant, it is the perfect backdrop for any wedding.

Facilities and Capacity

The Mackey House is nestled on a sweeping 125-acre property located under 10 minutes from Historic Downtown Savannah Georgia.. You can host your ceremony in the stunning garden surrounded by large ferns and tropical palms or on the banks of the sparkling lake while your guests gaze out at the beautiful countryside. The covered outdoor pavilion is a great place to host a cocktail hour. Home to a grand crackling fireplace and offering sweeping views of the property, this space provides a warm and peaceful atmosphere. The house and large wrap-around deck are great spaces for your reception. The deck features room for round tables, a dance floor, and a full bar, while the house includes a full-service kitchen and buffet area for caterers' use and a grand staircase leading up to getting-ready rooms for the wedding party. This venue can accommodate weddings of up to 300 guests.

Absolutely stunning venue and the best people to work with!

We got married at the Mackey House on 12/08/2023 and it was the most magical experience. You can’t find another venue this spectacular with even better staff and people to work with. Dave and the staff at the Mackey House made everything seamless for us. Our bridal party, guests and family were shocked at the beauty of this venue and the kindness that is crafted through the staff. As they say, the venue is your canvas and they give you the paint brush to create your own masterpiece with them. We couldn’t have had a more perfect day. Diamond Dave is there for you for the best DJ experience as well as your coordinator and officiant if you choose! Thank you for letting us be a part of the Mackey House experience. I wish we could do it all over again.

The Mackey a house exceeded our expectations!

We truly can’t say enough about the Mackey House. Trey, Shelley and Dave were incredible to work with and the place itself is just breathtaking. I understand now why people here in Savannah say that’s it’s “The Wedding Venue”. We feel so blessed to have been able to have our celebration of love here.

October wedding

We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or staff to work with. Weddings themselves are more expensive than I could imagine but the Mackey House was worth every penny. We highly recommend Diamond Dave as well as Thrive who made our night all the more magical. If possible my husband and I would both go back and do it all again. There was only excitement on our wedding day instead of nerves. It was the perfect night ❤️

I have been privileged to provide the ceremony music at the Mackey House many times over the years. Every time I enter the grounds I am amazed at the beauty of the place and the consistent professionalism of the staff. Any wedding or event at the Mackey House is, and will be spectacular.
