The perfect wedding venue

The perfect venue that made all my Pinterest wedding dreams come true! Kim and Heath (the owners) were extremely friendly, personal and helpful throughout my wedding planning process and during the wedding day. They recommended different food, photography, cake and DJ services which was helpful as I am not from the area.

The venue was perfect to host my 100 person wedding with a gorgeous new brides room, spacious kitchen for warming food, extra outdoor seating and a beautiful long driveway lined with oak trees for our sparkler exit.

Would definitely recommend this stunning venue!

The Perfect Night!

Such a charming venue! It was perfect! We had ample time to set up and take down. Tables and chairs are provided on site. We were able to set the tables and chairs up how we wanted. So many spaces for our Bride and groom to get ready, our guest to move around inside and outside, great ambient lighting, speaker/sound system. Newly renovated warming and prep kitchen was such a bonus esp. with 2 new refrigerators!
This venue sets the stage for the perfect night of celebrating. We loved the spacious dance floor, eating spaces and the upstairs provided a great over flow for our guests! The outdoor porch and large window peering in allows for additional seating of 20 and they were able to see all the action from the outside. We could not be happier with this Venue and all that is included! The best part…no downtown parking, easy and fast entry and exit to this Venue. It was a delightful setting and housed our 150 guests….wonderfully!

Wedding dreams came true!

Can't say enough good things about this venue. The owners were easy to work with, responsive, and very kind. The venue was awesome! First of all, when you drove in, it is super dreamy and beautiful. The area is so calm and peaceful which I think any bride will appreciate with all the happenings going on. Loved that there were different areas for our guests to mingle in. Such a cute venue. Very pleased with our experience there. Thank you!!

60th Birthday Celebration & Fund-raiser

I choose the Venue at Hunting Creek because of the laidback atmosphere and the flexibility of the owners, Kim & Heath Edwards. It was great for celebrating my 60s-themed 60th birthday with family and life-long friends. The set-up was perfect as I had a silent auction upstairs that benefitted a charity close to my heart. There was space for a photo booth, and the bar location on the porch was ideal. And the caterer appreciated the close proximity of the kitchen to where he set up. I was allowed to move tables and chairs to accommodate my requirements. While most of my guests were not familiar with the venue, they all raved about it! I would definitely hold another event at this venue!

Perfect! Easy and stress free! I love being able to bring in my own vendors and caterers!

A very charming Venue that boasts a beautiful entrance for any occasion…but esp for your special day!! I personally love the spacious indoor and outdoor areas, covered side porch, outdoor and indoor vow ceremony options, and the brides room. This venue is distinguished by its landscaping and the large oaks that line the entrance to create a true Southern masterpiece. It is just a few exits up from Downtown Columbia but your guest will be met with grandeur as they drive to a place set on its own in instead of a downtown parking lot that you hope you can find parking for. I love the privacy.
I appreciate how quickly the owners respond and how accommodating they are with dates and times, because they book and fill up quickly. The Venue was such a great place to rent. It is perfect for a large crowd of 150 guests indoors or 300 indoor and outdoor! I love the ability to bring in your own food; with the ease of a prep kitchen and your own caterers. We had plenty of time to set up, host the event and tear down. Set up was easy because this Venue has tables and chairs on site. Such a lovely evening. We were very satisfied with our experience from start to finish! We have attended other events hosted at the Venue of Hunting Creek and absolutely love the uniqueness of this Venue and the limitless ways to utilize it! This is the place to have your fairytale wedding or Southern living style wedding!
I highly recommend!!!!!
