Roswell, Marietta and Decatur hold some of the oldest houses and squares in the metro area, often at lower rental fees than in town, with easier parking for guests. Several are run by the city itself, which means clear published rules and fees.
Ask about rental hours, required security or staff, and where out of town guests can stay nearby.
The Venues
Roswell · Up to 400
A city owned 1842 house museum across from Roswell's historic Town Square, listed by the City of Roswell among its wedding venues. Events use the lawns and an old formal garden, with a small barn for food service. Couples bring their own caterer and rentals.
Roswell · Up to 300
A city owned Greek Revival house museum from Roswell's founding years, listed by the City of Roswell among its wedding venues. Weddings happen on the lawns and garden with a pond and pavilion, while the Osage Room covers a small indoor dinner. It is a do it yourself venue where couples bring their own caterer and rentals.
Marietta · Up to 250
A house and garden near Marietta Square run as the Marietta Educational Garden Center. Vows happen at a gazebo, the lawn holds the dance floor, and a banquet hall in the home seats a sit down dinner. Couples bring their own caterer, alcohol is allowed, and published rates are among the lowest in the metro.
Decatur · Up to 150
The old county courthouse on the Decatur Square, run by the DeKalb History Center. Weddings use the courtroom and side rooms, with marble walls, terrazzo floors and arched windows. It is one of the few metro venues that lets couples bring their own alcohol, and hotels sit within a block.
Barrington Hall publishes the biggest number, up to 400 guests. The smallest that publishes a count is Historic DeKalb Courthouse, up to 150.
2 of the 4 do. Fair Oaks, Marietta Educational Garden Center, Historic DeKalb Courthouse list a price on their own site, and the rest quote by date.
None of them publish a rain plan online, so ask each one for the backup room in writing and walk it on your tour.
