About this venue

The Trolley Barn is a historic and timeless wedding venue located in Atlanta, Georgia. Located in the tree-lined neighborhood of Inman Park, this 1880's architectural gem is surrounded by beautifully restored Victorian homes. A former warehouse for Atlanta’s first electric street railway line and splendidly restored, The Trolley Barn provides a unique and memorable setting for your wedding ceremony or reception.

The spacious 2,730-square-foot main hall features soaring 30-foot ceilings, handsome exposed wood beams, mesquite wood floors and festive lighting. The main hall can accommodate up to 350 wedding guests for standing or buffet-style events, or up to 225 seated guests. A brick patio surrounded by lush gardens and graceful granite steps can accommodate ceremonies or additional guests during warmer weather. This venue also includes an adjacent serving kitchen, 800-square-foot mezzanine overlooking the hall and 2,400-square-foot general purpose or staging room.

  • Event rentals

Other Services

The Trolley Barn is an ideal location for hosting private parties of varying sizes. In addition to wedding ceremonies and receptions, this location can accommodate all of your wedding events, such as engagement parties, bridal showers and rehearsal dinners. This venue is also available for hosting corporate meetings, holiday parties, birthdays, anniversaries and other special occasions.

History

The Trolley Barn opened in August 1889 as the service and housing facility for Atlanta’s first electric street railway line, running from the heart of downtown Atlanta to the garden suburb of Inman Park. By the turn of the century, the barn was transformed into a space for a church, basketball court, farmers market and storage for antiques until it was restored to its original appearance.

Location

This venue is located in the historic Atlanta neighborhood of Inman Park. The Victorian neighborhood once slid into disrepair before it was revived by a group of urban pioneers in the early 1970s. Today, this tree-lined street boasts many beautiful Victorian-era homes.

Incredible Venue and Great Service and Support

The Trolley Barn was the perfect place to host our wedding. Great outdoor and indoor spaces, beautiful and historic grounds, easy to get to from all over town. Lisa was very supportive and flexible, as we had to postpone once due to the pandemic. It was so nice that we felt supported during that very uncertain and scary time. Our guests are still raving about how beautiful everything was, and the pictures turned out amazing.

One thing I really appreciate the most about The Trolley Barn is that it comes with so many different types of tables and chairs. We used a lot of what they provided (which saved a ton of money), but dressed up a few other aspects that we wanted to splurge on (like rectangular tables for dinner and black chairs for the ceremony and dinner).

Highly recommend you consider this historic venue to give your guests a taste of a time gone by in the middle of the city!

Amazing venue in the heart of Atlanta

This venue was exactly what we hoped for! We had both the ceremony and reception within the space and guests enjoyed the patio space for a cocktail hour while the venue transformed for the reception. The location was perfect and easy to get to. The historic feel to the Trolley Barn is beautifully maintained and made for incredible photos. I highly recommend this venue!!

Perfect Fall Wedding

We got married here on 11/23/19 and even though it rained changed out outdoor ceremony to indoor it still worked perfectly. Lisa was always easy to get in touch with and was very accommodating with our wedding coordinator.

Beautiful Venue!!

My husband and I got married in October at The Trolley Barn. We chose the Trolley Barn because it fit our personalities so well and was a reasonable price for a venue in the middle of Atlanta. Our coordinator, Lisa, is also part of the Trolley Barn staff and she made the planning and the day of go perfectly. We lucked out and had beautiful weather which made the patio area very enjoyable for us and our guests that day. We were really pleased with our wedding and how everything came out!

Exceptional Venue and Expereince

We had a small, intimate ceremony at the Trolley Barn and Lisa and her team were outstanding. Not only is it a beautiful venue, with indoor and outdoor space, it felt very intimate and private. We also enjoyed that there was parking on premises for our family and that we could do everything right there. It was fabulous for pictures as well. The gardens are stunning, and the green barn makes for a lovely backdrop. And if you are a dog lover like us, your furry friend can be a part of your day. If you are thinking about hosting your wedding or event at Trolley Barn- DO IT- you will be so happy!

Awesome wedding venue!

We had a great time at the trolley barn! Lisa, the director, was very responsive about our event date and accommodations. She was very flexible as well. They allow for BYOB, so we had to drop off our alcohol along with other things the day prior and she was totally fine with that. The back area for the ceremony and cocktail hour was also super pretty!

I was so thrilled I went with The Trolley Barn for my wedding. I loved that the venue was decorated for Christmas, including a Christmas tree and wreaths on all of the windows. The staff was very helpful during the entire process and everyone came up to me during the wedding and afterwards telling me that the venue was absolutely beautiful. If you're looking for a unique venue in the city of Atlanta, this is your venue!
