Beautiful Wedding Venue!

This was perfect for us! We loved the vintage and rustic look of the carriage house and the house. It was perfect for our wedding- we wanted simple but elegant and a place where we could have the ceremony and reception at the same site.

The carriage house was the perfect area to have the ceremony! It looked absolutely gorgeous and our guests loved it.

We had a live band and spent the entire night on the dance floor! We wish we could live it over and over!

My daughter and son-in-law recently got married at Woodburn Plantation and even with some rain, the venue was beautiful and very accommodating! I enjoyed working with The Floral Shoppe and Roger Chapman created gorgeous flowers! The Boulevard Caterers were delicious! We highly recommend them all!

Woodburn Plantation was the perfect location for my southern wedding! Jackie was easy to work with and met me every time I asked! (which was many times) I was able to take my bridal shots there as well for no extra charge. My guests were wowed by the beauty of the home. The price was very affordable compared to other venues in the area. They were true professionals through and through. I even received my deposit back before I was even home from the honeymoon. The Woodburn made my wedding dreams come true!
