All of our needs were met and any questions were addressed immediately. Their professional, yet social personalities were absolutely perfect. I could not have asked for a better wedding experience for my daughter, her husband and our families. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a great place for a wedding. Their expertise and effort made it a memorable experience.

I recently got married at a lovely little place called Big Canoe, about an hour north of Atlanta…read more It's a woodsy resort community with lakes, cabins, hiking trails, and a big golf course. We booked the venue a year in advance, since we got married over Memorial Day weekend and venues in May tend to fill up fast. It was a beautiful setting for our wedding ceremony and reception - and I loved having the ceremony and reception at the same venue. (I'm just glad it didn't rain, since the ceremony was outdoors!) We got married on a stone patio overlooking the lake, and the reception took place inside The Chimneys reception hall right next to the patio. My only complaint about the venue was the heat. We had the AC going full blast, but it still got awfully hot. There were many pros, though, in addition to the gorgeous setting! We were able to bring in our own alcohol, and whatever caterer we wanted. We had the entire venue to ourselves for the whole day, which gave us extra time for set-up. Marilyn Zember, the Big Canoe wedding coordinator, was always responsive to our questions and requests, and was helpful throughout the planning process. And The Chimneys was more affordable than most places I looked at in/around Atlanta, too! All in all, it was a fabulous day in a beautiful setting, and I definitely recommend Big Canoe and The Chimneys as a great place to get married or host a fun event! (P.S. There is also a chapel just up the street for those who prefer a chapel setting for their ceremony.)

In the next building was a party that blocked all the roads, but the staff kept blaming us. The catering staff was rude. I would definitely pass. Too many venues available that want your business.

I can't tell you how happy we were that we chose Kyle Frantz to photograph our wedding. Kyle and…read morehis sweet wife Elisha not only take wonderful pictures, but they are so kind, easy going and stress free! My husband and I are very goofy by nature and aren't too keen on having our pictures taken, but Kyle made us both feel so comfortable and captured our spirit and love in beautiful pictures that we will treasure for a lifetime. Everything about Kyle Frantz Photography was amazing! Not only did he take amazing photos, Kyle and Elisha were a true pleasure to work with and share our special day with! I would highly recommend Kyle Frantz photography to any couple searching for a wedding photographer in the North Georgia area!

He did beautiful shots of the interior of my home and really cool ones of the outside from different angles and using a drone!

He sent me the photos the same day and I loved them and easily downloaded all of them to my computer and then to AirBNB and VRBO the same day as well!
