Easy and plentiful parking. Tiny concession stand area, and great stage and seating area. Very tight though! I would not want to be in any row except the front row as no space on the sides, only one single narrow middle row, so you are literally trapped like in an airplane trying to deplane. I'm not claustrophobic by any means, but this was a little tight for me. Aside from that -- fantastic venue! Can't wait for another show!

PLEASE view the photos I've shared to see how horrible, penny-pinching this place is. Impressed by all the 5-star reviews? They make you sign a contract saying you'll only give them a 5-star. They claim to be "an open vendor venue." But in multiple areas, they penalize you hundreds for not using their preferred vendors. It was cheaper for me to pay their $800 penalty AND hire my own two bartenders to provide the same service than to use the ones Southall tries to force on you. Their preferred rental company was so expensive that I had to DIY my decor because I couldn't afford another $400 penalty. In the walkthrough, they say chairs are included. But "if you need them for the ceremony too," they charge an extra $350. They gave me a price sheet, then increased the DJ fee by $500 a week later. What could warrant a random 39% increase? If you or guests leave something at the venue by accident, they forbid you from coming back to get it. We left a whole table here and were so anxious they'd keep our $750 security deposit that we didn't even ask for it back. The contract says the Security Deposit will be refunded within 30 days of the event, but we didn't get it back until we emailed them multiple times past the 30 days. They make you pay for meals for THEIR staff. It's standard for other vendors, but I worked in the wedding industry for 3 years and never once saw the VENUE make the bride pay for multiple meals. I didn't rent their $500 optional tables. So they shoved all the furniture I didn't rent beside the barn and tried to hide them with the open barn door. This was so humiliating as ALL my guests walked past and had to see this carnage during my ceremony. Completely unacceptable. You can't arrive until 10 AM. In all the weddings I've worked, the bridal party could arrive at 7-8 AM. The late, strict start time made us so rushed and stressed. If you arrive before 10 AM, they charge you $150 for every 15 minutes you are early. The most catastrophic failure was that their DJ (DJ Pete) played the wrong song THREE times to start our ceremony. He panicked when he realized it was the wrong song and stopped it so my grandma and brother had to walk down in SILENCE, started the wrong song again so the parents had no choice but to walk down, then played the wrong song again for the bridal party. It was so chaotic that my sister was crying, the entire party was upset, and I had to physically get out of my own wedding lineup to show him what to play. I fought not to have a complete meltdown, but the anguish shows on my face in all the photos/videos that I spent $6k on. I blacked out from stress during the ceremony and don't remember the union with my sweet husband, which is by FAR the most hurtful part of all the ways Southall sabotaged my wedding. I can't look at our photos or talk about the wedding without crying, and I am in therapy to cope. I cried on my wedding night and honeymoon the next week. I asked Southall for DJ reimbursement and help with what I lost on photo/video- and they told me the DJ's unpreparedness was all my fault. Imagine hearing a song with your parents while they're in town for your wedding that brings you all to tears- so much that you want it in your wedding. So you send the change to the DJ the night prior & he agrees, but ultimately can't swap out one song. If an 8-year seasoned DJ can't accommodate ONE song change 13 hours before showtime, they have bigger problems. I've seen successful song changes 15 minutes before a ceremony. Yet- the venue used my one change to shift the blame off of them for butchering our wedding. Southall ruined the happiest day of my life and showed no remorse for what they did because brides are business transactions to them. Including an email from them for when they reply to this and try to paint me in a bad light and pin their failures on me instead of owning their mistakes.

We were reassured anytime that we felt like we did not know what we were doing by Bri & Leah in the office as well as the awesome property manager Mike who took great care of everyone on wedding day. The grounds are just beautiful, with so many different options for ceremonies and have the ability to spread out between the land and the buildings. Our DJ experience was fantastic! It was the party we wanted from day one. Our signature drinks were amazing and their BYOB service is top notch. We even got a refunded for left over alcohol. Such a win. Southall Meadows really cared about our experience from the very beginning by pointing us in the direction of really good vendors that took care of everything to making sure we did not lift a finger on wedding day. It really is awesome to see a small business put on such a beautiful production and we could not be more excited to tell everyone about it!
