The indoor space is nice, but it's not sufficient for large events. It's very cozy here. The bathrooms were really clean and they even stocked them with hygiene supplies in case you needed them. There are so many photo opportunities here. It's really a space for weddings. The staff had a few challenges accommodating the needs of the organization that was hosting the event, but they did well pivoting. We saw some swans here. There was ample parking and the staff were very helpful and knowledgeable. I saw a price sheet while I was here. I'll let you research that on your own.

Loved our wedding at the Pace House! My partner and I were looking for a charming, historic venue…read more From the photos and description on line and the recommendations from friends, we thought we'd made a good choice. But once we started working with Leigh Vaughan from Saratoga Events, we KNEW we'd made the right choice. She couldn't have been more welcoming, enthusiastic or helpful, which made all the difference for us as a gay couple and since we were planning our wedding from out of town. The House, with its adjoining deck and enclosed historic Pavilion, were perfect for having the ceremony and reception in one location, and the convenience of working with Saratoga Events and Avenue Catering made planning a snap. Leigh had ready recommendations for any other vendors we might need, checklists to help with our planning, and obviously a wealth of experience in putting together flawless events. The food was delicious, with lots of options to choose from, including formal sit down or buffet and cocktail style. We had so many compliments on the charming, intimate atmosphere and pleasant service. Since I work in the preservation field, having the historic house for our guests to enjoy before and after the ceremony made it particularly special. I would highly recommend the Pace House for anyone planning a small to mid-sized wedding in the Atlanta area!

It gives a feel of elegance with the down home charm that will make you feel both welcomed and comfortable in the space.

My wedding at Flint Hill had two different stories: The wedding day was fantastic, but the planning…read morewas a nightmare. I suspect the positive reviews reflect the former. I will share advice that I wish I had received before making a 50% deposit. My rating is based on the planning. The day of would get 4 stars. - We were glad we had an outside wedding planner to be our ally. If you've never planned an event like this, you might not realize that you can easily be taken advantage of. - They provide a lot of staff on the day of the event, but some of them were people we had never met. We had an eight-minute call with our "Day of Reception Director" the week before the wedding. She is a part-time (weekends) employee who doesn't even have a company email address. - We were dazzled by Melissa's sales pitch. She spent 2 hours with us when we came in for a tour and it was great. We thought she would be a great ally in this process. She was super friendly and helpful through the contract process until we paid 50%. - We needed to read every version of the updated invoice to catch price changes. The price of our dessert was $9 until one day it was $9.50. They charged us $150 for early arrival with a $150 credit to cancel it out. One day that credit had changed from $150 to $2. Laura from the design studio "accidentally" increased the price of some tablecloths by $5 each. - Their contracts sometimes expire after two days, and they said we needed to sign before getting answers to our questions. This happened with 2 contract addendums. We asked questions. Melissa said "Any specific detail changes to this contract will be handled in the extended planning sessions." - They marginalized me while behaving towards my husband. We had a recurrent problem where I would send an email, no response, husband reminds them, and they respond quickly. One time they ignored my email for five days. When he replied to my note, they responded to him within the hour. I don't know if it's because he's a man, he makes more money than I do, or they simply didn't like me. - If we didn't get it in writing, they often denied it. There are numerous topics that I am certain we discussed verbally but unfortunately I didn't have it in writing. With the issue mentioned above, they insisted we never discussed it, and they only agreed to do it because we found written confirmation. - We needed to spend at least $2,000 at their design studio, but we didn't have any trouble exceeding the minimum. We had very minimal design requirements, brought in an outside florist for the bouquets, and our initial quote was over $1,900, not counting the $700 tablecloth rental. - Menu changes come with an upcharge. You only get to put out one salad dressing. If you want your guests to have a choice, there is an $0.50 per person. Mashed potatoes come with no toppings. Want to add something as simple as sour cream or chives? One dollar per person for each topping. - We paid more than 80% of the adult rate for children aged 4-9. Children starting at age 10 are charged full price. The menu says "reduced rate" for children, but the aren't mentioned until much later in the process. They get a 20% discount on the base price for the buffet, but they are full price for drinks, dessert, and add-ons. I don't know if they would also be charged 100% for drink packages with alcohol. - We had to convince them to let us have a menu tasting. They offered us a "tasting box" with six items from another event's menu but only one or two from our menu. None of these options had our main dishes included. They said the point of a tasting box is to understand the quality of the food, not our specific menu. I want to thank Kristin, the CEO, for her help. Two months before our wedding, she allowed us to switch from the Atrium to Flint Hill (for a cost of $3,500) The change in venue couldn't fix corporate policies and staff difficulties though. I can honestly say that planning this wedding was one of the worst experiences of my life. Good luck, future brides and grooms.

We so appreciate how hard they worked and how smoothly everything went that evening.

Evening events could be great here too because of the wide open space - a dance floor could be easily cordoned off and used! There is a lot of space to use outside too. At our event, they had yard games set up out there which were a lot of fun to be out in the sun. If you're looking for an event space in the Smyrna area, I had a great time (as an attendee) and was impressed with the space at Brawner Hall!

We all grew up on and in the Chattahoochee River and there was a least one "senior skip day" many of us floated the river. The staff at Roswell River landing were pleasant accommodating and easy going. Even the mandatory Roswell police officer was helpful and friendly. The venue is reasonably priced, no need to rent tables and chairs and it provided just the right atmosphere for old friends to reconnect and talk, walk out by the river and recall our glory days in Sandy Springs, jumping off the cliffs and floating the Hooch. This place is a gem. Parking may be a little tight as they only have around 60 dedicated spaces but everything else worked out well for us. Thanks Roswell.

"If your reviews are sounding like essays, start a blog. I can't read your life story on my phone…read morebefore ordering from the menu." [Time & Date of visit]: All day event / 7-10-15 [Party Size]: Wedding event with 100+ guests [Location/Ambiance]: The location is right on the edge of the chatahoochee river, so if any couples are planning their weddings on the weekend; Just hope your wedding photographer can photoshop any kayake-rs / canoe-rs / tubers out, if they happen to be in the shot. Also, the actual building itself shares a portion of the lot with a Tubing / kayak rental company. This location is catered to smaller weddings. The lot fits a good amount of cars, but is no way a walmart parking lot. Inside: I would say quaint and slightly rustic. It's been a while since they renovated the paint and carpet. Centered before the hall is a 4 way open gas fire place. There's a small upstairs loft section that can fit maybe 2-3 large round tables up top on each end and maybe a kids table section in the middle. The wedding I DJ'd for, actually had the side photographer doing a photo booth upstairs. Good thing that along each wall is a good number of outlets, with out having to run extension cords all over the place. There's a small kitchen with a good amount of counter space for any caterers to prep. Which includes the following amenities; Two ovens, microwave, ice machine, double basin sink, and a refrigerator. Rest rooms consist of a men's and ladies' on one hallway, with a unisex / handicap close to the kitchen. I wouldn't call it a family rest room as there isn't a diaper changing station. The dance floor area is pretty small, so they moved me upstairs once the reception started. Outside: Google images shows that a lot of couples perform the ceremony part on the patio section over looking to the chatahoochee. For this part I was section right near the corner of the outside building with two available outlets to provide power for my DJ equipment and speakers; which consisted of a 4 ft table and two 15" PA speakers on speaker stands beside me just for size reference. After the ceremony and transition to cocktail hour, there were a good amount of space for banquet tables, high tables for just placing drinks, and a bartender station. [Service]: I was only the DJ so I did not join any of the meetings between the bridal couple and the management. Though they only rent out tables and chairs which you can see the prices and description on their site. But the caterers had to bring their own table cloths and such. As for noise, the city of Roswell has a noise ordinance that limits any events for this area to end at 12 am. As the wedding party was gathering everything up, the management team started to put up all the tables and chairs. Try not to forget anything, cause they are pretty quick on locking up and heading home. {Summary}: With the new rights that allowed other types of couples to get married, I would say that this location is great for any small weddings. This location also provides a good scenery for sunset photos. I believe that if an event such as a wedding, it's about $600 for rental and $500 for a refundable deposit for weekdays; M-Thur. And weekends are $1100 with also a $500 refundable deposit.

My bf and I had a Friday night date night at Vino Venue. We took one of the cooking classes. It was…read moreso much fun and the food was amazing. The night we went it was a Mediterranean themed. Which was perfect for me since I love Mediterranean food. It is a group class so you will cook a family style dinner with others. The chef does demonstration of each station and then he let's everyone choose which station they want to be on. We chose the chicken kabobs. We prepared and cooked them. While we watched the demonstration we enjoyed a glass of wine. Our dinner at the end was paired with 3 glasses of wine. It is a little pricey, but definitely worth the experience. We are planning our another date night there in the near future.

Super dope wine venue that's much more than your typical bottle wine shop…read more So it's in a shopping strip mall area so there's free parking there. It's on toward the end of the shopping strip so it's not hard to find. You'll look at the building and there are some indoor and outdoor seats for you, and it's very neat and clean. Coming inside it's a lot bigger than what you would expect. They have a wall of wine, as they should, they have a back room where they do tastings, and not like four tables that are set up. They have like tastings and cooking lessons as well so there's tables and stoves and all sorts of things. They have a full kitchen with a kitchen menu that I hear. The fool was pretty good. I actually didn't try the food on the first time around because I just eaten and I just wanted to stop And to see what it was about because it's been on my list. When I went I sat at the bar and the bartender (Tay) took care of me. She was super cool and we had a good conversation. The bar has liquor there so it's not only wine. They have a very limited selection of liquor but there is liquor there. They have a cocktail menu, again. It's kind of limited, but they can pretty much make whatever you need. But the show the spotlight is going to be on the wine selections. Wish they had plenty of them. I was picking out a wine to try and she definitely helped and gave good advice and led me in a good direction. She was awesome. Now they have a wine club. This wine club is pretty good, so I may consider trying it. I'm already part of wine club elsewhere, but this one might be a little bit different. For the wine club you pay a price and you get about four bottles of wine, but you also get to do all of the tastings as well. You get the good a membership discount if you bring people in to dine-in as well. There's a lot that goes into it. There should be a picture of it in my review so check that out. Oddly enough, they also have trips that they go on for people who want to visit different wine venues. It's really surprising because that isn't a small thing to take group trips to some random part to sample wine. But if you're a wine drinker, and you have the the money to spend, this would be cool to be around like-minded people. They really have a lot to offer! I thought it was a really good random walk-in for me, I enjoyed it. The atmosphere was good, the selections were really good, the customer service was really good, it was great on all parts.
