Wedding Planning Tips: Finding a Venue . Metro Atlanta Area . Atlanta Wedding Photographers

Finding the perfect venue is one of the most difficult tasks when planning your wedding. What’s your style? How do you want your wedding to look? Do you want to go with a theme (vintage, industrial, modern, urban, rustic, country, simple, elegant, etc…)? What kind of experience do you want for your guests? For yourself? Do you need hotels close by for out of town guests? Do you want to have the wedding and reception in one location or two? Indoors or outdoors? So much to think about that it can be absolutely overwhelming! Atlanta definitely isn’t lacking for amazing wedding venues. To try to help you find an amazing wedding venue that suits you and your style we’ve listed a ton of our favorite venues, categorized them by type, listed a short description of each venue, and linked directly to their wedding information page. Hopefully that will make some of your planning a bit easier and less stressful! Look for venue lists from The Chattanooga, Nashville, Knoxville, and Birmingham areas soon!
