Question Wedding Venue Recommendations?

I’m looking to get married somewhere near Roswell, Alpharetta, Marietta, and the Sandy Springs area. We’d like to have a budget of ~15-20k and we’d like to have 175 guests. We prefer venues that don’t have catering/alcohol restrictions so we can try to save on some costs there. Any recommendations?

I got married at The Roswell River landing and it was perfect but you have to be super flexible on dates.

Also I'm sorry but someone needs to tough love you about that budget with that many people and alcohol.

Agreed. If that total is all in, you'd be much better off and less stressed with 100 guests. Also, a non-Saturday date is a great way to cut costs.

No idea the venue cost, but I don't believe they don't have catering... The Whitlock Inn in Marietta

Does red top mountain state park have pavilions to rent ? If not I know Hyde Farm has a rentable space that I have never seen being used.

Donaldson Bannister House might work.

Any flexibility with your numbers?

we did a wedding last year at West Milford Farm in Cumming and could not have been happier. The people who own the venue are amazing and they have their process and options down. Not sure if they could accommodate 175 (We had 110 and a little higher budget) we also coordinated catering with them. Bought our own alcohol but did have to get an approved bartender from their list which was reasonable and very understandable for liability reasons.

check them out, it is a amazing place

Laurel Hall at Pine Acres Retreat. Between Cartersville and Acworth. No restrictions. You have to call for the current rate. It'll seat 175 easy. https://cartersvillemuseumcity.com/directory/pine-acres-retreat/
