My wife and I have been married almost three decades, and in that time we've attended a lot of…read moreweddings at a lot of venues. In my humble opinion, Koury Farms was absolutely perfect for a small outdoor wedding. The wedding we attended as guests here sat approximately 72 people in the reception hall using four tables plus an additional 2-person table for the bride & groom. I believe there was enough space to accommodate one more table of 18 comfortably and still have room to move around. The center of the event space was open for dancing while the right side featured a gift/cards table, charcuterie grazing table and a photo booth. The outdoor wedding area was just to the left of the reception hall on an elevated, covered wooden deck overlooked a small vineyard. The seating was pew-style and featured wooden plaques placed at the base quoting scripture as well as a sign that read "Pick a seat, not a side - you are loved by both the bride and groom!" Attached to the reception hall on one side was a small space with a bar and catering tables for food and drinks, while the other side was closed off as a private space for the wedding party. I assume this is where they took their bridal photos. Overall it was a beautifully simplistic venue with lots of country charm. It's an excellent place for vow renewals with an intimate crowd of family & friends.

Barn South turned out to be a really cute wedding venue! When I first heard "barn," I thought there…read moremight be animals, but it's strictly a barn-style event space and a beautifully designed one at that. The staff was accommodating, though I think the flow of the reception and overall direction could have been handled a bit better. Maybe a bit more experienced or seasoned folks that know the procession of how weddings go or flow. One of the highlights was the food! The pasta bar was a hit, with options like stuffed pasta, chicken pasta, and salmon pasta...all delicious and well prepared. Staff did remove the food rather quickly as there was enough for seconds but there were folks that didn't even get their firsts. They did accommodate me with a plate to give as one of the groomsmen didn't get one in time. So they made a few huge plate options to make up for it. The bar service was also top tier, thanks to the bartender Roxanne. She made sure the drinks kept flowing and wasn't skimping, which I appreciated and after all, it was paid for. The venue itself made for stunning pictures, and I especially loved the open outdoor area, which sparked so many ideas for a grand entrance. The decorations were well done, creating a fairytale like atmosphere that fit the occasion perfectly. The wedding was a success, and this venue provided a beautiful backdrop for such a special day

My daughter was married here today!…read more She is not my biological daughter, or even a daughter by marriage or adoption. I met her when she was only 18 months old, back when my wife and I volunteered together in the youth classrooms at church. She was a shy little miss, but seemed extremely comfortable with me and my wife. She would sit with me nearly the entire service, from the time her mother dropped her off to the time she'd return to pick her up, sometimes not wanting to leave us. One day our pastor asked the men of the church to voluntarily provide childcare for the single mothers during a special Saturday conference just for them. Without hesitation I asked her mother to leave her in my care. That lead to other times where my wife and I would keep her for an entire weekend so her mother could run errands and have some 'me' time to herself. Soon month passed, then years as she joined us on vacations, cook-outs, holiday dinners and any family event, because she was family. If you have paid attention, she is in many of my yelp photo's. At some point she began to call ME dad, and my sons her brothers. So it was truly an honor when she asked me to walk her down the aisle today, 22 years after we first met. [ THE VENUE ] Located on the property of a 118-year-old cotton mill where raw cotton was spun into fabric for over a century, the venues encompass three old cotton warehouses. There are two Event Halls: The Kennedy and The Jackson, both of which come with the use of a bridal suite and groom's room on the day of the event. Each venue can accommodate up to 250 people with a dance floor, and 300 without and includes 72" round tables & black padded chiavari chairs. The space itself has beautiful whitewashed exposed brick, wood ceilings, stained concrete floors and cute touches throughout such as a vintage looking piano, rope lighting, antiqued furniture, chandeliers, see-thru cream-colored drapes, greenery, outdoor patio and high-top tables. [ THE EXPERIENCE ] Pre-wedding activities included pics all around the grounds of this historic warehouse. Many areas were once covered warehouse rooms, but are now just brick shells of the past. Great for an industrial urban backdrop! The wedding was held in the Jackson Room, where one half of the room is used for the ceremony while the other half holds circular tables to be used for the reception afterwards. After the ceremony was over, guests were invited outside for appetizers under the covered canopy that was once the loading dock for the cotton mill. It was perfect for a beautiful sunny day, but not sure how well this would work during a Georgia thunderstorm. This gave the Venue team time to reset the room for the reception and put all the tables in place. My daughter's wedding included 150 guests, and that left ample elbow room for all in attendance. Those brides looking for a more simplistic wedding venue loaded with historic charm will find The Cotton Mill Event Venue delightful. [ FINAL THOUGHTS ] I share reviews revealing personal parts of my life in hopes my transparency can be a lesson for someone facing a similar situation. Simply put, when you see the opportunity to be a positive influence in someone's life... DO IT!!! I know it can be scary. Self-doubt and thoughts of inadequateness can overrun your mind. If I'm being honest, 20 something years ago I was not immediately open to the idea of being a father figure to children outside of my biological's. I feared not being good enough, but faith is not in knowing the endgame. Faith is believing the endgame will turn out well, despite our personal handicaps. It was a slow process for me, one I wish I would have embraced quicker, more eagerly and done better at fulfilling. Still, I'm so glad I took a leap anyway. I didn't know it would be one of the great joys of my life to have known this little miss, whom today became a Missus. She, and her new husband are two of thee best products of this generation and I am thankful to have been a part of her life's journey and now his. You should have heard their vows. They brought everyone to tears with their heartfelt dedication to one another and God. Thank you Cotton Mill! You don't know it yet, but the event you hosted today was for a young couple destined to leave a glorious mark on the world... just you wait and see. 2019/70

Every aspect of the service was impeccable. Allison helped me figure out what I wanted on my menu to make my guest feel welcome and appreciated. She helped me understand which dishes would go well together and remain in my budget, which is another thing most of my vendors didn't seem to comprehend. Allison also considered aesthetics and helped me come up with a menu that was aesthetically pleasing, which it was! The photographer took several photos of the food because it was just so pretty and fancy looking!!! I get hungry just looking at our wedding photos lol on the front end Allison was awesome in helping me think about things I didn't know to think about. She was friendly and a quick responder which is so helpful with you are trying to plan a wedding. Then, on the day of my wedding, it was as if the food magically and beautifully appeared. Allison and her team were almost invisible - super professional appearance and they didn't stand out at all (which was important to me) I trusted AE catering & events with a big part of the most important day of my life and they were awesome. I can't wait to have a reason to use them again!
