We got married at The Chapel on Sycamore in April and it was everything that we had hoped for! The chapel itself is gorgeous with the dark wood interior and stained glass, and the outdoor space in the spring was perfect for everything from photos to cocktail hour gathering. We had 200 guests and the space was accommodating. Lisa was with us to coordinate our day from the very start and was incredibly prepared, responsive, timely, and helpful in answering my many questions throughout the planning process. She met me at the Chapel to visit multiple times to look at the space as I was planning the event. We used Oakhurst Market, a preferred caterer, for our food and got many compliments (and loved the food ourselves!). We loved the location in Decatur near restaurants and bars for our guests and the ease of travel and proximity to the city and it was easy to book parking for our guests nearby with Lisa's assistance. I would highly recommend The Chapel on Sycamore as an excellent wedding/event venue with lovely and helpful staff. The pictures included are by OliviaRosePhotography.

Flint Hill was the best decision we made for our wedding! Their team went above and beyond to make our day absolutely perfect. If you're looking for a venue that handles almost everything in-house, look no further. The entire planning process was smooth and virtually stress-free thanks to Flint Hill's professionalism and efficiency. Their Design Studio brought my vision to life - better than I ever imagined. The floral arrangements were stunning and left our guests in awe. The food and drinks were phenomenal — especially the chicken parmesan and the blackened petite ribeye. Truly top-tier catering. On the big day, we had the incredible Ms. Brenda as our day-of coordinator. She ran our rehearsal and wedding with military precision — in the best way possible! Her presence was calming, and she had everything under control from start to finish. Jessica, our venue coordinator, was equally amazing - always responsive, professional, and a true support throughout the process. I also wanted to mention that while we opted to spend more on food, beverage, design studio, etc., Flint Hill offers a variety of options for many price points. We never felt pressured by the staff to upgrade or spend more money. Booking Flint Hill was hands down the best investment we made during our wedding planning. If I could do it all over again, l'd choose Flint Hill every time. Photos by the equally amazing Rachael Horton - Aurora Photography

We appreciates their involved, thorough, and responsive communication style. The staff was incredibly helpful in guiding us through the planning process, and the set-up on the day went seamlessly. While we had to use their in house catering and florist, which required an additional tasting fee if you wanted a private tasting, the end result was a beautiful event space that was overall well worth it. The only downside was wishing there had been a bit more hands-on help with the day-of timeline and schedule, and wishing our day of coordinator had helped get some of the shots and moments we wanted on camera. But overall, Little Gardens provided an excellent value and contributed greatly to making our special day perfect. Everyone there is wonderful!
