My fiancé and I are hunting for wedding venues and feeling a little overwhelmed by sticker shock. We’d love something with a city vibe but not a hotel ballroom... maybe a loft or renovated industrial space. Have any Atlanta folks found a venue that felt unique without costing six figures? Open to hidden gems!

Have you looked at venues in Chamblee? I’m not sure how many people you need space for, but there are some great spots there.

Check Downtown Roswell or Monroe. Fernbank or Dunwoody Nature Center, too.

Maybe look into art galleries

Check out the Solarium in Decatur.

Are venues legit six figures now?

Maybe Ryan Gravel’s Aftercar? https://roughdraftatlanta.com/2021/09/26/beyond-the-beltline-ryan-gravels-new-aftercar-space-will-jumpstart-conversations-about-the-citys-future/ Beyond the BeltLine: Ryan Gravel’s new Aftercar space will jumpstart conversations about the city’s future - Rough Draft Atlanta

Atlanta botanical gardens

Check out Glover Park Brewery. Their ballroom is pretty decent.

The Atlanta History Center has some beautiful spaces!

Trolley Barn in Inman or the Zoo?

Serenbe?
