Amazing!!!
Getting married at Four Oaks Manor was the best decision we made in our wedding planning process. The people who work there are so kind, understanding, and truly listen to the vision you have for your day. The venue itself is so gorgeous and all of our guests kept raving about the people, the beauty of the venue, and the aspects that they included into our day. They are so easy to work with and have so much to offer that takes the pressure off of you while planning. I would highly recommend them and have not enough nice things to say about this venue!-

The BEST wedding experience
Four Oaks Manor is the best possible venue you could imagine. They have everything that you could ask for in a wedding. They are truly the best place to have your wedding. They are friendly and super professional. They think of absolutely everything, and include the small details. We had 3 meetings with our coordinator, Sierra. She was thorough and friendly. We loved working with four oaks. My family was so impressed by how seamless the day moved and how great the food was. My guests absolutely loved the food and I am still receiving messages by how beautiful the venue was. We are so happy we chose Four Oaks -

Book right now! You won’t be disappointed
Four Oaks and all the people that work there was an absolute dream! The owners and coordinators are so nice and attentive. They are very very good at what they do. There is no doubt that your day will run well and that your vision will be executed if you book with them! You have plenty of planning time to make your vision come to life. I feel like this venue works for all types of brides, whether you are the type to want to have input on every single detail (me, lol) or you want to just show up and enjoy the day, they have you covered. The venue is so beautiful on it’s own, my guests could not stop raving about how much they loved it! But on top of that, they have so much decor to choose from that’s all included in the price! Not many venues do this, trust me it makes a big difference! The spaces are amazing, so much room to get ready with your girls the morning of, and so many beautiful places to take pictures. The food was absolutely delicious! There’s tons of amazing options to choose from, my guests were very pleased with the dinner we picked. I could go in forever about this place. Do yourself a favor and book this venue before their calendar fills up!-

A dream location!
We had our wedding at Four Oaks Manor this October and it was the absolute perfect location. The gardens are stunning, the house is beautiful, and the surrounding are incredibly charming.
McKenzie was our point of contact and she was fabulous. Prompt, helpful, and organized, she made planning and the day-of run smoothly. The food was delicious, the decorations perfect, and the set up ideal for our 80 person wedding.
We’d recommend Four Oaks Manor to any couples looking for an absolutely stunning location with kind, efficient communication and great flexibility. -

Top notch venue
Four Oaks was amazing!! It was such an easy choice for a venue since it had so many awesome decor and wedding accessories included! Not only is it a beautiful space but the people that work there are top notch! They also accommodated for our rehearsal, which was on the Friday after Thanksgiving, when they are usually closed. We worked with McKenzie and she was the best! During the planning process she answered any and all questions I had for her so quickly! She also was so calm and helpful during the day of our wedding, I have been in weddings where the venue planners/coordinators are very rude and stressful, but this was the complete opposite experience. I can’t recommend this venue enough, they made the whole experience easy and enjoyable!-

This venue is not only magical, but all the services they offer makes your life so much easier. We had McKenzie as our coordinator and she could have not been more perfect. -

Fairytale Wedding
I couldn't have dreamed of a more perfect wedding! This venue gave our wedding the most magical feel to it, from the lit up gazebo to the lush green gardens surrounding you everywhere you look. We were given our own personal coordinator, Morgan, when we decided on the venue, and I couldn't have asked for anyone better! She helped us so much throughout the entire process and helped relieve so much stress by keeping a timeline for us, helping us make decisions, and even being there the day of to make sure everything ran smoothly. Another deciding factor for Four Oaks was the food. My husband wanted to make sure the venue's food was excellent and it certainly was! My husband also has some dietary restrictions and they were more than happy to accommodate! One of my favorite moments of the evening was when the two of us were able to eat dinner after the ceremony by ourselves and have a moment alone to talk and be in each other's presence. I'm so thankful that we were given that option. This venue was the absolute best and I wish I could go back and relive that day all over again! I can't thank Four Oaks Manor and Morgan enough for everything they did for us! You guys are the absolute best!!

Astonishing
I truly have no words for Four Oaks Manor but I will try because the service they gave us is out of this world.
My fiance and I were having difficulties trying to pick a date with the pandemic. Then in March, my fiance said he wanted to get married on our 5 year anniversary- extremely romantic and the perfect date, but with only 2 months to plan. I was terrified- how an anyone plan an entire wedding in just 2 months? I stumbled across Four Oaks Manor and fell in love. I sent a message and they IMMEDAITELY reached out to me and planned a date to meet up the following week. Upon visiting the venue, I felt as though I had walked into a fairytale.
The venue is all-inclusive; the decorations, setup/breakdown, chairs/linens, officiant, catering, a s'mores fire pit, garden games, and even a planner who attends the day-of to ensure things go smoothly is truly a dream come true. With so little time to plan, I could not have chosen a better venue. McKenzie was my planner/coordinator/confidante who never once made me feel rushed or stressed. I never really planned out my wedding before and McKenzie walked me through everything with the utmost patience, listening to what I wanted while giving me her input which really brought everything together. Any question I had she answered promptly via email, allowed me to bring my photographer on an impromptu visit, and had the best demeanor throughout the entire time. Most impressively, she had the entire day planned out to the minute.
As for the day of, I wouldn't change a single thing. I never once felt stressed and McKenzie was always within reach to help with anything that came up. The food was AMAZING- hands down the best wedding dinner I ever had. The ambiance from the beautiful garden, lighting and music is simply unmatched. We had a total of 14 people attend and it not once felt too big.
If you're looking for a fairytale wedding with no stress and all magic, Four Oaks Manor is your venue. -

THE All-Inclusive Wedding Venue!
Four Oaks Manor is the all-inclusive resort of wedding venues, and we can't speak highly enough of the venue and the entire staff! The property was absolutely stunning for our mid-April wedding, and being provided a wedding coordinator took so much stress of our shoulders! Our coordinator, McKenzie, was so helpful in covering all the ins and outs of wedding planning, much of which we didn't even think about! Thanks to her and the amazing staff, our big day went off without a hitch! We were also able to include our own personal touches, and McKenzie made sure everything went according to plan. Communication throughout the entire planning process was totally open for my midnight worries (I received responses at more appropriate times of day haha), I was provided checklists for everything we needed to decide on in manageable sections, and the options for decorations were plentiful! We would without a doubt recommend Four Oaks Manor to anyone looking to plan a minimal stress and affordable wedding!-

Gorgeous outdoor venue & Excellent service!
Four Oaks Manor is a family owned venue that delivers high quality service for weddings. Our day was absolutely perfect thanks to the staff and wedding coordinators. The guests loved the venue and the food! We kept the entire event outdoors for the ceremony, and reception on the beautiful grounds. The venue can be described as an upscale backyard secret garden with a romantic outdoor setting. The best feature of the venue is the complimentary use of any of their decor. This includes: lanterns, signs, table numbers, beer tap, bon fire, faux florals, and center pieces. We had an amazing time at Four Oaks Manor and will recommend them to everyone!-

Simply Amazing!
Four Oaks was simply the most perfect venue I could have asked for! The wedding planning process was a breeze thanks to Ellen and the owners. On the day of my wedding, everything went perfectly! My guests just raved about the delicious food and gorgeous decor! I highly recommend Four Oaks Manor. -

The perfect venue!
I had my wedding here on 10/12/19 and I'm so happy that we chose Four Oaks Manor. Jenny and all of her staff were extremely helpful during the planning process and they made sure that our wedding day was perfect from start to end and that we didn't have to worry about a single detail. The food was amazing, the decorations were beautiful, and everyone had a great time! -

Awesome experience
The Four Oaks manor is a little piece of heaven hidden back in Buford, GA, off of Hamilton Mill Road. I've driven past the little white farmhouse many times and had no idea what it was like inside the house or on the grounds out back. It is absolutely gorgeous, and I knew when I saw it that my daughter Kaylee and her husband Jarom, would have their wedding there. They just got married May 11, 2019 and I can't say enough awesome things about Jenny, the owner, or the wedding coordinators, Ellen and Morgan. We worked with Ellen, but have no doubt any one of these ladies would have done an amazing job. It was delightful to not have to decorate, cook, take anything down or clean up. It was everything Kaylee had ever dreamed of her wedding being and more. I highly recommend this venue to anyone, you will not be disappointed:) -

Wedding of Chad & Kirstie Caldwell on June 2, 2018.
My son and his bride got married at Four Oaks Manor. We were so impressed and pleased with everything. Randy and Mary Beth went above and beyond to make it a special occasion for them. They thought of every detail and left no stone unturned. They were accommodating in every area. The venue is beautiful. Our guests and people who saw the pictures loved it. They made their day perfect! They went out of their way to make sure the couple got what they wanted for their wedding. They are very attentive to detail and have so much patience. I would highly recommend this venue for a wedding.
Our other son and his wife had a baby shower at this venue in the Carriage House. It was beautiful. Mary Beth did a fabulous job. She pays so much attention to detail and what the people want.
I've been to a few other events that were held in the Carriage House. The meal they served was excellent.
I highly recommend this venue for a wedding or other event. I know you will be pleased. -

Four Oaks was THE best place for a wedding. We got married 10/7/17 and had Morgan as our wedding planner. Our engagement was 6 months long, and all we could say was how surprised we were that wedding planning was NOT stressful!! Honestly, Four Oaks gives you a seamless experience from beginning to end, and during the wedding we never worried about anything. Everything was taken care of and we just had a blast! Their pricing is SO reasonable and transparent for the service they provide, the venue is charming and beautiful, the staff know the place backward and forward. They don't nickel and dime you like other places do. Can't speak enough praise! We will never forget our magical day there and we only look back at Four Oaks with good memories and experiences.
You can see more of the venue in our wedding video here!

Four Oaks Manor went above and beyond what we expected and we had high expectations to begin with based on recommendations. I was blown away by their service and by their team. I was dreading all of the stress of wedding planning that friends said they experienced for their daughter's weddings. There was NO stress with Four Oaks Manor. The professionalism of their staff was top notch. Their website - FANTASTIC. Their caterer - AMAZING. Their property - BEAUTIFUL. Their Wedding Planners -TOP NOTCH! Their florist - SO GOOD! Their pricing - THE BEST! Can not say enough - they do not nickle and dime you to death - on the contrary, they provide so many extras at no additional cost! -

Four Oaks went above and beyond to help with our wedding, Morgan especially did an amazing job answering ALL of my questions and coordinating everything all day. We got so many comments from friends and family mentioning how Morgan was on top of everything the entire night. We lucked out and got fantastic weather but they were set up to handle rain with no issue. The venue was just beautiful and we can't recommend it enough! -

Having any kind of event at Four Oaks Manor is very easy. I would say the most important thing to keep in mind is that the location is important. You won't run into traffic issues like you would if you were closer into Atlanta. We have had numerous family events at Four Oaks Manor including several baby showers, birthday parties and my parent’s wedding anniversary. When we decided on a December 10th Christmas theme wedding, I knew it had to be at Four Oaks Manor. The owners, Randy and Mary Beth, are so friendly and accommodating. We had several private planning meetings and they happily attended to every detail. With the warm weather, we thought we would be able to have the wedding at the outdoor ceremony site. Unfortunately, it turned cold and other arrangements had to be made. The staff worked tirelessly to put up tents and get heaters. Everything about our wedding day was just perfect. The food, floral decorations, candles, twinkling lights and Christmas trees made the evening magical. We were honored to have Randy officiate the ceremony.
The entire experience, from planning to us getting in the limo to leave, was absolutely perfect. I want to thank everyone involved and let them know how much I appreciate them. I cannot have imagined having our wedding anywhere else!

I would encourage any prospective bride to consider this venue. My daughter got married there on 6/4/16. Four Oaks Manor exceeded our expectations! The venue is a hidden gem with it's beautiful garden setting, rustic wedding arbor, carriage house and lovely historical home. The staff was kind, attentive, and responsive to all our needs from the moment we made our decision to the actual wedding day. I cannot say enough about Kelley our wedding coordinator. She was sweet, wonderful and amazing to work with! She made us feel special, kept us on schedule even when we go an unexpected rain shower shortly before the ceremony, and continued to calm any worries we had due to the weather. The venue is affordable, the décor options were perfect, the food is amazing. They even provided 2 gluten free meals which our guests raved about. Their preferred vendors were also great to work with. I want to thank Kelley, and the rest of the staff for giving my daughter her dream wedding. Be sure to go visit this venue you won't be disappointed. -

We were married last November and had a fabulous day. Four Oaks put our wedding together in less than 60 days and had the place perfect for over 70 guests. Savannah was fabulous and never seemed ruffled. The cost and value was everything we were looking for and the the set up was perfect. I really cannot say anything negative except that it ended too quickly. Thank you to all the staff at Four Oaks Manor for all of their hard work and attention to detail. We were able to just enjoy our day and I cannot say how many people tell us it was their favorite wedding ever! -

We LOVED our beautiful wedding day at Four Oaks Manor! Sweet, easy going Savannah was our planner. We met with her several times to work out different details. She kept us on tract with planning worksheets. She took care of the details. We didn't have to stress out knowing that she was coordinating our day. Savannah was there on our wedding day making sure all details were carried out. She was quick to respond to emails and calls. She did a fantastic job!
The day of our wedding was gorgeous. The venue is full of beautiful azaleas, trees, and flowers. It is breathtaking with all the little pathways, buildings, and gazebo.
The Chef's food was amazing! We had a champagne brunch with ham, quiche, and chicken Florentine. The chef worked with us to allow for cheese grits and biscuits. We also had the spicy shrimp skewer appetizers. Yum!!! Let me just say, there were NO leftovers. Everyone enjoyed the food and pleasant scenery.
This is a fantastic venue. The only thing we had to provide were the wedding dress/tux, cake, and champagne. This is a wonderful one stop shop so to speak. It made our lives so much easier not to worry about every tiny detail. Our guests loved the venue, simply beautiful. Thanks Savannah for helping us pull off a wonderful wedding!!! -

Four Oaks Manor was absolutely perfect! We had such a wonderful experience working with our coordinator Savannah. She set up structured and well planned meetings to make sure we had all of the details covered. Really took a lot of pressure off of us. The staff were flexible and responsive the day of our wedding. All of our guests loved the venue and the food. It's such a beautiful place and we are so happy that we chose Four Oaks for our wedding. -

Wow! Our wedding was everything we imagined and more! From the very start, we knew Four Oaks Manor was special. The staff were all extremely courteous and accommodating, and our coordinator Emily kept us all level-headed on the big day. Each and every detail was attended to, and almost everything was taken care of in-house. All we needed to provide was the cake, the rings and the dress. This was the perfect space for our wedding of 30 guests, though our initial guest list of 140 would have still been beautiful. The Four Oaks team of Randy, Emily, Brandon, Chef Craig and Kelly were very professional. Our guests are still raving about our prime rib buffet and how excellent the food and wait staff was. We will definitely be back for more events to come!

We want to thank everyone that worked with me on our special day..Kelley is the best...she met with me on several occasions and used such creativity to achieve my exact vision. The decorations were better than I could have ever imagined they could be, and even though it sprinkled here and there everything was great.After all was said and done my wedding day was AMAZING! The food was SO GOOD!! I had so many guests talk about the encrusted chicken! the servers were so fast on everything.
We recommend Four Oaks Manor to anyone that wants to have the most wonderful day to remember and to work -

Wow, wow, wow!! What an absolutely perfect venue! I was simply blown away with the level of service we received from Four Oaks Manor before and during our wedding. The staff was fantastic, extremely attentive and professional. The food was great! We had a low country boil and our guests are still talking about it. Our wedding coordinator Kelley was amazing - detailed, organized and a joy to work with. She took care of everything! I could not believe the attention to detail, every little thing was handled. DJ Aaron was awesome and fun, another joy to work with. The gardens are beautiful. The venue is private and romantic, with twinkly lights and candles everywhere . We were planning to wed at Lake Lanier Islands but Four Oaks offered so much more for a far better price. They delivered on everything I wanted for our special day: the décor, the flowers, the ambiance was perfect. We had over 100 guests and everyone remarked how beautiful the venue was and how much fun they had. Thank you Four Oaks for an unforgettable wedding. -

Great place to hold both your wedding ceremony and reception! Between the beautiful landscape outside and the fire pit for smores, the cool smokehouse and the carriage house, this place will give you an elegant yet fun place to hold a wedding! -

I am getting married here on June 14, and I am so excited! I have nothing but good things to say about Four Oaks Manor. When I pictured my wedding I wanted a place where I knew my whole family would feel comfortable as if we were in someone's backyard and that is exactly what they have. Everyone we have dealt with is awesome & very friendly. I will be back to write another review after the wedding. Very excited!! :) -

The team at Four Oaks was the best. Especially Laura. She made what often is a stressful time pretty much stress free with keeping things on track and on schedule. Loved working with her. The food was soooo good. Our guests loved it. Also they took our vision for our wedding and helped decorate so it was perfect. We felt we got such a large value for what we paid. -

I am so happy that my husband and I chose Four Oaks Manor to be our reception venue! They were super easy to work with, and we really feel we got more than our money's worth! Kelley was our coordinator and she was great! She knew exactly how the night would go and helped us with all the details. I never felt like Four Oaks didn't know what they were doing (unlike some venues we toured). They suggested we have a private dinner before going out into the reception and I am so glad we did that! It was a nice break in between the ceremony and reception to just talk and eat with my new husband before we spent the rest of the night talking and dancing with everyone.
Our reception was exactly how we had always pictured! I love how they handle all of the decorations, food, DJing, coordination, flowers...everything! The food was so amazing, we are still hearing compliments about it, and everyone says that our night was magical. We were even allowed to have our dog at our reception which made it that much more special.
I highly recommend Four Oaks Manor to everyone for any type of party! They are such a great staff and knew us by name whenever we would visit. If I could give them 10 stars I would!! -

Kelley at four oaks was our wedding coordinator and she was wonderful! All of the staff were very professional and helpful. The venue was decorated beautifully, better than I could have ever imagined. They were very flexible with everything we wanted to do and were attentive to our wants and needs. They worked with all of our vendors and were so helpful. Our wedding was so much fun and we still get compliments on how beautiful and how much fun it was. Without the venue being so organized and professional we would not have had the success we did. The food was also very good and we had everything we wanted even things that were not listed on the menu. It was fabulous and we had our dream wedding! -

If we could give this venue more stars, we would! This was the best experience. Stress free for the bride because everything is done for you. You are still able to make your wedding day unique and special because they are typically willing to do anything to make it yours. Planning sessions leading up the big day were wonderful because they knew the questions to ask and you just had to make decisions. Everything was covered and taken care of through this process. We would do it all over again because it was such a wonderful experience. Kelley and her team had everything perfect the day of and everything ran very smoothly which allowed for a very stress free wedding day! Thanks again to everyone who made our day very special! -

Our wedding was wonderful! Simple Gatherings at Four Oaks Manor was the perfect venue for us! We wanted a somewhat small wedding (80 guests or so) and a venue that offered a cozy and familiar setting (and beautiful)- Four Oaks did that! It is possible to have a beautiful and relatively stress free wedding without going into debt. Four Oaks was affordable and super easy to work with! Not only are they all very professional but they genuinely want your day to be perfect! The food was delicious and the decorations were beautiful! I overhead many guests comment on what a relaxing day it was and how nice it was to be able to move around (there was a fire pit for s'mores, the reception area, and an indoor dance area where guests could move freely to and from). I wouldn't change a thing about our wedding- not even the weather (it did rain, although it stopped just before the ceremony). We put tents up and it looked just as beautiful! I will recommend (and already have) this venue to others! -

Four Oaks is amazing and our wedding wouldn't have been nearly as awesome anywhere else. Even 3 weeks later we still have people telling us how much fun they had and how beautiful the venue was- they also loved the food! Everything was just wonderful- best day of our lives. -

If I could give Four Oaks more than 5 stars, I would. Four Oaks was the PERFECT venue for our wedding! Not only was the venue perfect, the the planners were awesome - very detailed, which takes the pressure off of you. Laura and Aly made planning the wedding it so easy and fun. They were absolutely fantastic. Laura made sure our guests felt welcome, too, making our wedding and reception one we will always treasure. -

Four Oaks Manor made the vision for my wedding become so much more than I could have imagined. Working with the staff was a pleasure and Laura was so great during the process. I could not have picked a better venue to have my special day. They made sure the grounds were kept and all the flowers were beautiful. They set up everything beautifully and did everything we asked. They made the whole planning process stress free and easy. I would recommend Four Oaks Manor to anyone. It is a perfect place for your special day. -

Simple Gatherings and their coordinators are the finest group of people I have ever had the pleasure of doing business with. My wedding was truly a day of ease. They say the bride is supposed to have the most perfect day of her life and I am here to say if there was a problem they handled it because I can't remember a single thing from that day that wasn't perfect! I love you guys! -

This facility not only provided a cute and intimate setting with very friendly help, but they do most the work for you! They take care of catering with delicious food, decorate with all sorts of cute lights and lanterns and candles, arrange getting your flowers done for you, set up the music for the night, and whatever else you need. No extra hidden costs or sticking you with extra things at the end. It came out to exactly what it initially was supposed to be and was a great experience. We planned and completed our wedding in 4 weeks and it was spectacular. We had some cold weather unexpectedly and they hurried to put up tents and heaters and make everyone comfortable without any issues. -

Four Oaks Manor was a wonderful find for my wedding venue. I always envisioned an outdoor garden wedding that through planning transformed into a fun summer evening wedding surrounded by lush greenery. Their staff was excellent in assisting with the planning process. I was planning the wedding from Rome, GA and they were always able to provide evening appointments so that my mother, fiancé, and I could attend them easily. The only thing I was not able to attend was the tasting due to work, but I had family members attend their tastings, and on the wedding day I was very impressed with the food. They make the day of the wedding a breeze. We were able to drop off the decor, favors, and such a few days before the wedding and they handled all of the set up, including putting up tents for the rain on our wedding day. It was so nice not to have to decorate, but to be able to enjoy the wedding day and admire the details. It was exactly what I wanted in a wedding venue. They made it simple to plan with vendor recommendations, planning meetings, and handled everything the day of. We are still getting compliments about our wedding. The setting was wonderful, guests were able to roam between the carriage house and tents and outdoor paths. I would highly recommend Four Oaks Manor because it made being the bride easier. -

I absolutely CANNOT say enough good things about Four Oaks as a venue, and also the amazing people who work there! We had a small wedding/reception, and Four Oaks was the perfect venue for our more laid-back, kid-friendly event, and the staff was AMAZING! From the initial planning to the day of the event our coordinator, Laura, was attentive and responsive. We didn't have to worry about anything on our wedding day...the Four Oaks staff had everything handled seamlessly and with no issues. Everything was fantastic, and I couldn't have asked for a better venue or better people to work with! -

Everything about this venue was perfect. I just had my wedding (June 2013) and the site could not have been more beautiful. Leah and Madison were always there to help and accommodate my wants and needs. The food was delicious, the decor was rustic and romantic, the staff were all great. Everyone loved my wedding, it is a day my husband and I will never forget and if I had to do it all over again I would definitely go with Simple Gatherings. -

I cannot begin to describe how wonderful our wedding was. This 1920's home is full of character and charm. Four Oaks Manor was an absolute dream to work with. They were accommodating and cooperative in creating my vision. The venue and grounds is beautiful, especially when in full bloom! I am so glad we chose to have our special day at Simple Gatherings. Even with an 80% chance of rain on our wedding day, Randy and Jessica insured that my wedding not be affected by a little rainfall. Luckily, the rain held off, but Simple Gatherings was able to put up the tents for us, and the show went on! The dinner was exceptional. Our guests are still raving about it! Every element of our wedding was just lovely. Thank you, Four Oaks Manor. -

Four Oaks Manor is the perfect setting for a casual or formal outdoor wedding. Randy and Courtney are very nice and laid back. They will make sure everything goes smoothly. The food was great and plenty of it. I searched forever for the perfect outdoor wedding location and found them to be the best for the money. Only a couple glitches...they are not the best bookeepers so ask for a receipt of payment. Also, be sure to look at the silk flowers they use because mine were supposed to be light pink and they used hot pink. Other than that though everything was perfect! Would defenitly check them out. The grounds are beautiful! -

Simple Gatherings @ Four Oaks proved to be a special experience for the wedding of my daughter and son-in-law. As Mother of the Bride, my job was huge. They provided professional guidence that proved invaluable. The venue is lovely and the food/reception was exceptional. The pricing is fair and quite flexible. Because the staff is so organized and professional it was a delightful day and the time flew by. I had no worries and could enjoy the whole wonderful experience. Thank you. -

My daughter just got married this past weekend at Simple Gatherings @ Four Oaks Manor. I can honestly say this wedding venue is absolutely one of the best I have ever seen. Everything was beautiful, the house, carriage house and grounds are just gorgeous! The outdoor garden and flowers are beautiful, and they have this huge tree in the center out back that was in full bloom with pink blooms last weekend which only added to the lovely charm of the beautiful grounds. This venue is elegant but not stuffy, making you and your guest feel right at home. The food was excellent and the staff are extremely nice and professional and they went to great efforts to make my Daughter's wedding everything she dreamed of. You must check this venue out if you are planning an upcoming wedding, the place is beautiful, the staff is very professional and so friendly and includes a wedding coordinator to help make your wedding day special and stress free.
We would just like to say thank you to the entire staff at Simple Gatherings @ Four Oaks Manor for making my Daughter's dream wedding come true. :)

I could go on for days about how great this place is!! Randy, his daughter Courtney, and his entire crew are AMAZING! I planned my wedding in less than 4 months, from 1400 miles away. Randy was willing to work to make my very detailed visions come true. It was perfect. They really went above and beyond my expectations.
And the food. To. die. for. Seriously, I wish I had gone back for seconds. We were able to tailor the menu to my theme (very Southern). I got everything I wanted. All my guests really enjoyed the food, the bonfire, the s'mores, and the entire atmosphere. I wish I could have all of them write reviews, because I know theirs would be just as glowing as mine.
If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't change a thing about Four Oaks. They really and truly are a beautiful, magical place. A dream to work with and a dream setting. -

My now husband and I wanted to get married close to home but far away from the realities of everyday life. We had friends and family coming from ALL over but had a VERY tight budget and we were planning in less than four months. We looked at a couple places and the second that we met Randy and walked through the front door at Four Oaks Manor we knew that was the place for us. The house is gorgeous and quaint with beautiful gardens. It felt like you were far away from our lives but in reality we were only 5 miles from home. Kelle became my wedding planner and both she and Randy were able to work with our budget as well as ALL the kids we had and the food allergies that we have. Kelle met with me on several occasions and used such creativity to achieve my exact vision. The decorations were better than I could have ever imagined they could be, and totally made the ambiance perfect for our outdoor casual family oriented wedding with low country boil. After all was said and done my wedding day was AMAZING! We started with a luncheon for all the women in the morning and it was perfect. The food was amazing and the timing was perfect. The wedding went off without a hitch and Randy and Kelle were so accommodating even with last minute changes made the day of the wedding. They even provided a pack n play and baby monitors for the infants! The FOOD is still being talked about as being the BEST that anyone has ever had at a wedding thanks to Ryan and his staff. They took into consideration my gluten allergy as well as the budget and the variety of folks we had at the wedding.
I recommend Four Oaks Manor to anyone that wants to have the most wonderful day of their lives to remember and to work with people that are genuine, accommodating, and friendly and almost like part of the family when all is said and done!!

From the moment I contacted Four Oaks Manor about hosting our wedding I knew it would be the perfect place. After meeting the owner, Randy West, our minds were completely at ease and we new our long search was over. He and his staff took care of everything from the first moment until the wedding and reception were over. They were very open to our ideas and input and listened well throughout the whole process. They had numerous wonderful suggestions as well.
My fiance and I had no doubt that everything would be exactly as we expected and we were wrong! It was better than we could have ever imagined! We cannot thank Randy and his staff enough for making this day a dream come true!

My husband and I decided that we wanted to get married, but we wanted to do it on a tight schedule and budget. Randy and Courtney helped us to achieve both! They left us visit the venue multiple times so that we could get all of our ducks in a row. They also recommended a wonderful cake designer to use for our wedding. They helped me so much with every small detail of the wedding. We would never have been able to have such a romantic and beautiful wedding at any other venue. Randy is always very prompt with returning email and phone calls which is a huge deal when you are on a tight schedule. I wouldn't have changed anything about our wedding day. Simple Gathering (Randy and Courtney) at Four Oaks made it perfect and low stress. -

Simple Gatherings is one of those hard to find (or only) venues that when you walk in it's like putting on your wedding dress for the first time - you know it's the one! They are beyond helpful and accomadating to anything you want to do. They are ready with answers before you even know your going to ask a question. They have solutions for every possible hiccup that could come along, always with you and your day in mind. I worked primarily with 3 people here, Randy, Courtney, and Kelli - but many were there to help the day of my wedding - what an amazing team. They did my catering, my decorations, the setup. EVERYTHING - I didn't have to worry about a thing. My cake also came from a connection to SG, Carly - it was just as incredible as the venue - I highly recommend her as well!
I had walked into so many venues before coming to them and it had always felt like a business transaction. When we sat down with Randy for the first time you could tell that he really did care about not only the even that would take place but the people having the event. I wasn't exactly having the most traditional wedding and was afraid I didn't know how to make everything I wanted happen - but they did! They had everything. What a great thing they have going on - I can only hope that more people find out about them and expierence the great day that I had because of Simple Gatherings! -

It was a true blessing to find Four Oaks Manor. We wanted to find a venue with an open concept for guests to have room to roam, and Four Oaks Manor fit the bill. From the dance floor, to the bar, to the fire pit, to the tables under the string lights... it was fabulous. Not only was the venue a dream, the staff was phenomenal! Courtney, the coordinator, listened to my ideas and ran with it. When I told her I wanted a certain element for my centerpieces, but wasn't sure how to get it, she told me "don't worry about it." Sure enough, she got the items I wanted! There was one moment when I got to the rehearsal and Courtney wasn't there, but Randy, the owner of Four Oaks Manor, jumped in and walked everyone through the day. I was concerned there would be a disconnect for the next day, but no such thing! The wait staff on the wedding day was professional and helpful. I liked the a la carte style pricing, where I could choose what elements I wanted/needed and the flat price was based on that. Very cool and affordable. When I think back to my wedding day, I know it was the perfect place for my husband and I. -

When we saw Four Oaks, we knew it was the place for our reception. It had a southern vintage feel. It was outside ... and inside. There were blooming plants and trees. It was great.
The main concern for us was the money. It was much more costly than our original reception site budget included. When we voiced our concerns to the owner, he indicated that he would work with us! Yay!
Four Oaks Manor went above and beyond in helping us to create the reception we truly desired recognizing that we were having a Catholic ceremony and thus unable to use the site for our ceremony. His team worked together to create a beautiful reception location using furniture we provided. They worked with us with regards to finances.
We would definitely recommend them to future brides! -

We had our ceremony only at Four Oaks and it was the perfect day! The weather was beautiful and all of the flowers were blooming thanks to a very mild winter! The venue was exactly what we were looking for with its Southern and rustic charms. It is a nice alternative to the plantation style houses that are in the area.
Randy and Jessica made sure that everything was set up to our specifications which was taken care of during several meetings prior to our wedding date. We were able to come and see the property anytime and were able to bring our family members to take "the tour". We only had one glitch in communication during our 9 month time span of conversations during the wedding planning process, which was not bad and was worked out.
The property is very well maintained and Randy is constantly planting new flowers so that there is always something in bloom. It made for some gorgeous pictures! We would recommend this venue for ceremonies! -

I had my wedding at Four Oaks Manor in Sept of 2011. The grounds were beautiful and it was really easy to work with Randy and Courtney (owner and coordinator). I researched MANY venues in the metro atlanta area, and Four Oaks was definately the best for the money. Many of my guests said it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to and they loved the venue. The food was amazing but we ran out of green beans; only about 2/3 of our guests got them. Also, there were a few decorations that I had talked about with Courtney that weren't used at my wedding, but at the end of the day it was so beautiful it didnt matter. I really would recommend this venue, especially to brides who are on a budget but dont want to have to cut out important parts to make their vision a reality. -

This event venue is absolutely gorgeous. I am still getting comments and feedback from guests at our wedding who said the Four Oaks Manor venue was the most gorgeous venue they had seen.
All of the staff at this venue is incredibly helpful and they do everything they can to provide the best event possible. My wedding turned out to be magical, and I owe it all to the lovely folks at Four Oaks Manor. The grounds are breathtaking, the food is delicious, the wedding coordinator is on top of EVERYTHING, the wait staff is always coming around to pick up plates for the guests, and the entire evening is just magical if you chose to use Four Oaks Manor. -

We really love the venue. Everyone who works at Simple Gatherings was so warm and welcoming. We also felt that everything that was included with the price was reasonable and even beat out several of their competition. There were a couple of hick ups in regards to communication between staff at our event. We were told there was a shift change that could have been the reason for this. Overall we had a great wedding and our guests really enjoyed it. -

Four Oaks Manor is a beautiful venue, and offered a great back drop for the ceremony. There were only a few draw backs: first of all they are a relatively new venue and I don't believe they have all the kinks work out yet. The head of the venue and the wedding coordinator (provided by the venue) are a father-daughter team. I felt as though they had some communication issues through out the whole process. Another issue with the venue was their sound system. One of the reasons we chose this venue was because of the sound system. We hoped the sound system would help us save money on a DJ. If I could do it again I would have brought in a DJ that could provide his own speakers. Several of the speakers at the venue were blown which made it almost impossible for anyone outside the carriage house to hear the music or the speeches. And lastly I felt the staff was very helpful all the way up until the wedding its self. We had the venue until 11, but it felt they were rushing us out of there. They forced my Bridesmaids to go clean out the room at 9 PM which really distracted from the celebration. All in all I have great memories from my wedding I just wish a few things could have been improved. -

If you're looking for an affordable wedding venue in Gwinnett this is the place. They planned everything for us! It rained on our spring wedding day- but they had everything under control. I would recommend getting the tents if it rains on your wedding day as well (have you heard-it's good luck!)
Food is delicious as well, I had many people compliment us on how good the food was. Overall, a great value and a beautiful wedding venue. -

This venue was beautiful. It was reasonably priced for the services they provided. I loved that I was able to bring in my own alcohol and didn't incur a serving fee. The people that worked there were friendly.
The issues that occurred weren't horrible but more frustrating than anything. We were quoted different cost at two different times. The payments were confusing and we ended up overpaying. Once I calculated all the payments we had made we when then given a refund, since I proved that we had over payed.
There was a lot of confusion about getting our music set up. Since I didn't live close to the venue that was a headache to drive out there and deliver music twice to them.
Lastly, with all the chaos of the day my husband forgot to pack up his wedding gift from me which was a nice bottle of cologne and expensive hair product. Upon discovering this we called and they had no idea what we were talking about. Since it was only him and his groomsmen (all close guy friends) it was hard for me to image that this could have been stolen out of his room in the house. -

Leading up to our wedding, the experience was amazing. The staff was really helpfull and genuinely seemed to care about our experience at their venue. At the rehearsal is when everything began to go downhill. Our coordinator didn't have anything organized. The seating was planned and she wasn't going by what we set. She said she didn't have that email. On the wedding day the venue looked absolutely perfect and the food they catered for us was delicious. The only real problem I had with the whole experience was the inflexibility and unprofessionalism of the provided wedding coordinator on the day of our wedding. She was pretty rude from the beginning of the day and started sending people to the wrong seats after we decided to put namecards down to eliminate the confusion that occured at the rehearsal. She then played my wedding songs out of order even though the song titles and order of songs were addressed repeatedly before showtime. Our coordinator was also very rude and pushy throughout the entire reception. She never really allowed us to flex how I wanted us to. Another problem was she never showed anyone where favors were or where our signature board was. To top it off, the next day I had several family members, including my mother (who paid for the wedding!) tell me that she was incredibly rude toward my guests. Not exactly the kind of experience I want my guests to remember from my wedding. I would recommend the venue based soley on the fact that it is a beautiful backdrop for a wedding, but would also strongly recommend watching whoever your coordinator is. -

In general I was disappointed with staff at simple gatherings.
First of all, our wedding coordinator could not be at our wedding, which was ok with us because she had another important wedding to go But apparently, the owner and his wife who were supposed to be in charge on our wedding day did not communicate with her enough.
So several things went wrong:
1) the signing table was not set up right, at all. and no enough assistance,. Since we used traditional Chinese calligraphy set, i understand it was a little hard but not really. I spent a decent amount of time and money on getting the stuff ready and it was not presented right, at all. I even sent them a picture showing where to put everything.
2) there was no runner on the aisle. !!!oh man i was shocked.
3) we created our own playlist for the after reception party and gave the ipod to them at least 5 hours in advance so they had enough time to get it ready. But nope, we were told that there was something wrong with the dancing room so it could not be played.
Then, the FOOD. You pretty much have to use their food, which I do not have a problem with, if they can guarantee the quality of food and services. But nope! we paid $30 for each person to have a food tasting and it was good, so my mother-iin-law did the rehearsal with them, and the food that day was horrible. the dishes were kinda dirty too. They told us they used a different chef. For the actual wedding day, a couple guests told me the food was good.
well, it's not like they did not do everything right. But even if only one thing went wrong, it could really be annoying. Especially in my case, there are more than a couple things!
It is a beautiful place, we wish we had better memories. -

While touring the venue, we specifically spoke about an open bar with mixed drinks. Several months after we signed the contract and had our first planning meeting we were told they were a beer and wine facility only. We were also told if they didn't have my colors for table runners, they would gladly order them at no cost to me because another bride was sure to use them later. At our first meeting , I was told that they didn't have my color and the owner didn't like to order new ones. During the wedding, the coordinators were always hidden away and we had to find them when ever we ran out of something or needed something. In my opinion they should know to check on if the dishes were running low- the other half was still in the dish washer from the night before. All that said, it was a beautiful venue and we still had a wonderful wedding. I wish I could say my guests didn't notice these issues but they did and it didn't help that the caterer they required us to use ran out of food early -

The Four Oaks Manor was absolutely beautiful and at the end of the day we had an amazing wedding. The venue itself was gorgeous and it provided the relaxed feel we were looking for. The day of the wedding ran smoothly. The food was delicious and the fire pit and s'mores added a unique touch to the wedding. The Four Oaks Manor is also amazing in that they take care of most of the details for you which is supposed to relieve stress, but be careful in that because we ended up experiencing a lot of glitches along the way that made it more stressful than it needed to be. In our first meeting with Ellen we were told that if we used Laurens Florals we'd get a 1430 floral allowance and if we didn't we'd still get charged a set up fee, so we chose to use Laurens Florals for our flowers and then 2 days before the wedding I got a call from Lauren telling me that the Four Oaks wasn't going to pay the floral allowance so we still owed him the 1430. We called the Four Oaks and eventually were able to resolve the situation but it turned out that somewhere along the way Ellen had marked that we weren't using them and had charged us accordingly but in the meetings I had told them that I had met with Lauren and decided on certain flowers, etc. so I was under the impression that they knew we were using Lauren and that we had been charged accordingly. Additionally, at the rehearsal we learned that they had not yet charged us for the dance floor while we were under the impression that we had paid for everything when we submitted our final payment 2 weeks before the wedding. Both of these miscommunications caused a lot of unnecessary stress the week of the wedding, and meant that we ended up making more payments after we thought the final payment had been made. Additionally there were some little details that I had communicated to The Four Oaks that fell through such as not having enough mics during the ceremony. -
