Frequently Asked Questions
We understand that planning a wedding takes time and attention to detail! To help you get started, we’ve put together some frequently asked questions that cover the essentials and give you a head start on your planning journey.
-
Yes, there are a few instances where specific vendors are required to ensure the safety and comfort of your guests:
Alcohol Service: Due to county regulations and insurance requirements, we require the use of our licensed alcohol vendor.
Rain Plan: If your event is outdoors and you're expecting 150 or more guests, we require a canopy or tent rental.
Additional Vendors: You are welcome to choose your own catering, DJ, photography, and other vendors, but we’re happy to offer recommendations if needed.
-
Yes! We allow a one-hour rehearsal the day before your event, as long as the space is available. If the venue is already booked, we’ll work with you to find another time earlier in the week or the morning of the event. We’ll reach out about one month before your date to coordinate and schedule your rehearsal time.
-
Yes. A 7% sales tax fee is required for all venue rental transactions. We accept checks, which do not incur any additional transaction fees. However, credit card payments are subject to a 3.3% processing fee.
-
No, we kindly ask that all tours be scheduled in advance to ensure the property is available and the manager is on-site to assist you. Please contact us to set up a time - we’d love to show you around!
-
For weddings, we require at least a day-of coordinator to ensure everything runs smoothly. For other types of events, hiring a planner is optional but not required.
-
Yes, we require event liability insurance for all rentals. We recommend purchasing it through EventHelper.com, as it provides coverage for both you and our venue in case of any incidents. It’s a simple, affordable way to ensure everyone is protected.
-
Linens aren’t required, but they definitely add a special touch to any event! We do not provide or rent linens directly, but we highly recommend Peachtree City Rentals for great options and service. For our tables you will need…
Rectangular tables:
70” by 108” rectangle for short drop
70” by 144” rectangle for mid drop
90” by 156” rectangle for a floor length drop
Tall round tables:
70” round for short drop
90” round for mid drop
108” round for floor length drop
Round accent table:
70” round for mid drop
90” round for off the floor length drop
Square accent table:
54” square for short drop
70” square for mid drop
90” square for floor length drop
-
If your guest count exceeds 200, a 30' x 60' tent is required to ensure adequate coverage and accommodation. Or if its rains (see “what happens if it rains?” drop down).
-
Our venue can comfortably accommodate up to 150, depending on your event layout and seating arrangement. Whether you're planning a cozy, intimate gathering or a larger celebration, we’ll work with you to create a layout that fits your vision.
-
Due to county regulations and insurance requirements, we work exclusively with a licensed alcohol vendor.
They’ll handle everything for you from purchasing the alcohol to pouring the final drink so you can relax and enjoy your event, knowing it's all taken care of professionally and responsibly.
-
Yes, there is on-site parking available for guests. The parking lot holds approximately 150 vehicles. If your guest count exceeds 150 people, you will be required to hire a parking attendant to help manage traffic and parking flow.
-
We currently offer one additional add-on for couples who wish to extend their rental. For an additional fee of $750, your venue rental can be extended from 12:00 PM the day before your event until 10:00 PM on your event day, giving you an extra half-day of access to The Barn only.
This extended rental can be used to guarantee your one-hour rehearsal the day before your wedding, as well as to store items or begin decorating. Please note that we cannot be responsible for decorations left overnight, as we cannot guarantee their safety from the weather.
It is required that you have event insurance, which must cover both the setup day and the event day.
-
Included in your rental are bathroom baskets, accent tables, easels, signs, décor, bouquets, plastic serving ware located in the designated bins, a mobile bar, and a whiskey barrel with Lazy Susan. Use of the kitchen is also included, which features a refrigerator, prep sink, and stainless steel counters. Setup of tables and chairs in a layout of your choice is provided, along with takedown and post-event cleanup.
-
Outside dance patio: 45 ft x 42 ft

The space includes prep tables, a refrigerator, and a sink. Please note, there is no oven available.

We always plan ahead for weather changes and have backup options available. If your guest count is 100 or fewer, our indoor sunroom inside the manor can be transformed into a beautiful ceremony space. For guest counts over 100, we can adjust the table layout inside the barn to create an indoor ceremony area.
To ensure adequate time for setup and accommodations, a final weather-related decision must be made at least 6 hours before the event start time.
While some seasons are more prone to rain than others, Georgia weather can be unpredictable. We strongly encourage renting a tent as an added precaution for outdoor ceremonies. We will do our best to accommodate based on weather conditions, but outdoor ceremonies cannot be guaranteed.
