The Falls at Blue Ridge

Ellijay, GA
  • Up to 300 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $43,000

Nestled on 700 acres in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Georgia, The Falls at Blue Ridge is a stunning wedding and event venue that offers breathtaking views, gorgeous indoor and outdoor areas, rustic-luxe details, an in-house, gourmet chef to oversee the most stunning menu options and unparalleled client services. Lushly manicured lawns, beautiful gardens, creeks, a serene lake, a koi-pond, waterfalls, and the main, Majestic Waterfall are the perfect setting for your unforgettable event. The Falls at Blue Ridge, located in the quintessentially charming town of Ellijay, Georgia’s apple capital, is an hour and twenty minutes from Atlanta. Host your wedding or event at The Falls and you and your guests will create memories to last a lifetime.

Our wedding is booked for October 2025 with The Falls, but I feel the need to write this review now to help other couples out. The Falls has completely cleared house and hired a new team of absolute rockstars. Both Russell and Kayla bent over backwards to help me tour this venue - virtually and in-person. They were incredibly responsive to emails and worked with me to coordinate things from out of state. Not only were my fiancé and I able to virtually tour the venue with Russell, but my mom and I scheduled a trip down to Georgia (from Michigan) with ONE WEEK’S NOTICE and we were able to easily schedule an in-person tour. Russell was kind, helpful, fun, knowledgeable, and ultra professional. He explained that the old team was not meeting expectations and the standards held by the owners, so they cleaned house and brought in team members that could meet those high expectations. So far, Russell and Kayla have been a DREAM to work with. This venue is STUNNING. Perfectly manicured, insane attention to detail (heck, even the bathrooms are gorgeous), and in the cutest area between Ellijay and Blue Ridge. It really is just as beautiful as it looks in pictures, if not more beautiful in person. Let me assure other couples, I am SO happy with my experience with The Falls so far. I am Type A to the max and Russell and Kayla have both exceeded my expectations when it comes to communication and professionalism. Every question that I’ve had has been answered within 24 hours, if not within minutes. I absolutely cannot wait to have my wedding here!

Dawsonville, GA
  • Up to 125 guests
  • Raw space
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Offer

Creating happiness runs in our family. Our ancestors established this property in 1826. We named our venue this because we treasure the history of this space, and know there were many long, happy marriages on this land. There are several natural backdrops from which to choose for your ceremony; a log barn built in the 1820s, under an oak tree that is almost 200 years old, next to the pond on the dock, or by the large barn with a few curious horses behind you. Then walk across the green grass to your celebration under a tent, with or without a dance floor, lighting, tables, chairs and linens of your choosing.

1826 at Stowers Farm is an absolutely stunning outdoor venue nestled in the heart of North Georgia. Shannon and her team are absolute gems, making it effortless to turn your event ideas into reality. If you're dreaming of a venue that gives you the freedom to design your perfect wedding, then look no further. This is the place to make your dreams come true!

If i had to describe our wedding at Vecoma I would say; perfect, easy, and stress free. The venues are beautiful, and there are several to choose from. We actually had the ceremony indoors with photos at several of the outside venues. They were so very helpful and accommodating. They just made everything easy. The photographer was outstanding. We got the photos the same day! The prices were very reasonable and they just took care of everything. The officiant was wonderful and the service was exactly as we wished it to be. All in all, the wedding was everything we wanted: perfect, easy, and stress free.

Stone Creek Inn 

4.0

Rockmart, GA
  • Up to 200 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $8,000

Stone Creek Inn is a picturesque wedding and event venue located in Northwest Georgia. We feature a large creek with a lovely bridge, a covered ceremony area nd indoor ballroom. Choose from many full service wedding packages for your special day.

We had an absolutely beautiful wedding. All of the designs we picked came to life beautifully on the day of. The food and cake were absolutely to die for and we received so many compliments from our guests about this as well. We absolutely loved Michael in the design studio as well as Abby our day of coordinator. My only grievance and reason for not giving 5 stars is the communication during and after the planning and wedding day. We had to ask for things to be updated and fixed multiple times before things would be addressed which was a bit frustrating. One thing that really upset me was the fact that I had to correct the company at least 4 times in the months before the wedding that the bout count for the boys was wrong in the contract and was ensured it would be fixed. Eventually the count was fixed on the contract but come wedding day they were short 2 bouts and when I brought it up to the planner she was seemed quite unapologetic and in a rush to do other things. My photographer ended up making some with the leftover babies breath from my girls hair. This company will produce a beautiful wedding with all of the bells and whistles but can work on their communication with the bride and other family members, we are paying quite a bit of money after all. Check check and check your contract and you will have smooth sailing! Would recommend this venue
