For over 90 years, The Warehouse has been at the center of Eclectic life. Built in 1928 for Lee Hornsby, the property has been in the family since the 1880s. It held commercial activity for cotton merchandising, lumber and hardware for 3 generations. In 1996, Aubrey Hornsby repurposed it as a social/cultural center. Its massive timbers, red brick walls, old-south charm, natural architectural comfort and grassy lawns inspire down-home livability. It has hosted The Alabama Cotton Festival, church/school events, concerts, theater, receptions and parties. Corporations have used it for photo shoots and as a sound stage. We have held over 1000 events including 600 weddings. Upholding the historical structure, improvements have been made to ensure comfort and ease.

“The Eclectic Warehouse was the perfect choice for our wedding venue. From our first interaction, the communication was family-fast-easy, putting us at ease throughout the entire planning process. The venue itself was elegant, rustic and beautiful - the ideal setting for our special day. Aubrey was there to help with everything, including taking wonderful photos that captured all the joy and love. Shari and Aubrey were always fast to email or call back if I had anything I needed. The town is so friendly as well, and we fell in love with the gorgeous surroundings. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding experience. We will definitely be back to celebrate at the venue for all other occasions! I love this town!”

“My husband and I were very particular with our wedding venue choice and we could not be happier. As wedding photographers and videographers ourselves, we could not recommend a better option to any couples looking. Not only is the venue itself beautiful and peaceful, but hiring the manager Amanda to coordinate our wedding was the best decision we could have made for our wedding. When we were on the hunt for a venue, our priority was to find a safe space for our wedding party, friends, and family belonging to the LGBTQIA and BIPOC communities. We did not want any person feeling unsafe or singled out on our wedding day. Having this confirmed and reassured that the venue and Amanda were inclusive made everyone’s experience phenomenal. In addition to this, it was difficult finding a place that wasn’t rustic or a barn. Many of the locations that aren’t barns also didn’t fit our vibe or they were unaffordable. For this venue, you get the best of both worlds: an elegant location that also feels like home, all while being affordable with excellent payment plans available. We received so many compliments on this location from so many different people. Whether it was the elderly family members or young friends, everyone was so impressed with the space and amazed by the ballroom for the reception. The layout of the space made it so easy for a seamless day. Amanda provided insight and assistance for everything we needed and our vendors loved her. Our wedding gallery could not be more perfect, because of this space and her hard work. This is now the top venue that we recommend to our couples! We are excited to continue to come back to capture more love stories at Mountain View Gardens and Ballroom and maintain a connection with Amanda for future couples.”

“I had my wedding at Belle Farm in November 2026 with 75-80 people. It was beautiful and the perfect day! They were so willing to work with me as I planned even adding additional hours for me and my bridesmaids to get ready! I planned my entire wedding long distance, only getting to physically see the space once before the big day, but communication was smooth and timely, and they had great recommendations for other venders who have worked with them before (venders who already knew the space made it easier because they already knew the drill: where to park and how to set up to maximize the ceremony and reception spaces). Parking was easy for both guests and caterers, the bridal suite had plenty of space even with the many people I had going in and out all day, and the groom’s suite was perfect for the men and provided a space for us to store things during the reception. The ceremony space was beautiful. It looks big, but even with only 75 people, it did not look empty. The reception lodge was perfect; I specifically loved the bar, the mixed chairs, and the twinkling lights they had there. We did our grand entrance coming down the stairs after eating a private meal up in one of the groom’s rooms and that was a lot of fun. All the tables they provided were perfect for each need whether it be food, the cake, presents, welcome decorations, etc. Finally, the entire farm was exactly what I wanted for pictures! There are so many spots with great lighting for all the pictures you could want. And even with all you could want, I love how they are committed to improve, continuously adding more small details. If you’re looking for outdoor, woodsy, romantic vibe without it looking too much like a barn wedding, this is the venue for you! (It’s also super military friendly (meaning discounts ;)) The only maybe problem would be that it is a bit outside of town and in the middle of nowhere, being 45 minutes from Birmingham, but that is to be expected if you want the quiet and open space like I did. But my guests figured out driving from Birmingham where they stayed for the weekend, so it can work!”

“Let me just start by saying: HAVE YOUR WEDDING HERE. You will not regret it. Period. Sherill and Susie have a carefully thought-out process and it works like a well-oiled machine. You always have a line of communication for any questions (I asked TONS and never felt like a bother); you have sheets to fill out to prepare you for each step of the planning process. There are two official planning meetings, the first one is around 2-3 hours (really depends on how much you have/haven't set in stone) and the second is a 30-minute-ish phone call to narrow down any final details. Sherill guides you through one step at a time while Susie takes notes to ensure your vision comes true. And the most important part: wedding day. Every single detail was taken care of on wedding day; I literally didn’t have to worry about anything but drinking water, smiling, and trying not to slouch (lol) Skye was our coordinator, and she is phenomenal. She was so kind, approachable, and detailed. Florals and DJ were awesome. Dinner was hot and yummy. Cake was delicious and exactly what we wanted. Bartender was so friendly. The packages at the Chapel are an amazing value and the prices are exactly as they say. We chose the exceptional package and had the most magical day. I would redo our wedding here a million times before I even thought about going elsewhere. An all-inclusive venue is the best choice you can make. We are SO glad we chose Wedding Chapel on the Mountain. We will be forever grateful to Sherill, Susie, Skye, and every other professional at the Chapel who had an impact on our wedding!!!”

“This was one of the best choices we made in our wedding planning! Tune Farm is such a beautiful and historical place that is very well taken care of and maintained. It’s obvious that Lisa, the owner, cares deeply about her property and loves to share it. Everyone at Tune Farm felt like family and made our wedding that much more special. Lisa even let me borrow something for my “something borrowed!” You won’t regret choosing Tune Farm for your big day!”

“Loblolly Farm was the perfect venue for our 10th anniversary . From the moment we first contacted the event coordinator, Brandi, we were impressed by their extremely communicative, friendly, and honest approach.

The venue itself was the ideal backdrop for our special celebration, with its stunning natural surroundings creating an atmosphere of pure bliss.

“Rustic Pine Farms was everything we dreamed of and more! From the moment we stepped onto the property, we were in awe of the breathtaking scenery. The towering pine trees, rolling fields, and charming rustic barn made for the most magical setting. Our outdoor ceremony was absolutely stunning, with the natural beauty of the farm as our backdrop. The reception inside the barn was equally perfect—spacious, beautifully designed, and full of warmth and character. The handcrafted farmhouse tables gave our wedding such a unique, personal touch! The bridal cottage was a peaceful retreat to get ready, and having the entire venue exclusively to ourselves made the day feel even more special. The staff was incredible—so kind, accommodating, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue. Rustic Pine Farms is truly a hidden gem in Alabama, and we would recommend it 1000 times over! If you want a wedding that feels straight out of a fairytale, this is the place!”
