Spaces seem to be getting smaller and more clinical. Everything covered in hospital white and agreeable grey. We recently booked our event at the Magnolia Inn right after their exterior face-lift. Our event had the energy of a Great Gatsby gala with the class and charm of Southern Hospitality. The staff was attentive and available for any last minute changes or adjustments and catered to all of our needs. If you end up staying the night as well (like we did) the breakfast spread will have you asking for seconds and a late check out while you sit on the front porch swing while the Sunday sun starts to warm up the quaint little town around you. Our photo session was so much better in a place that you could easily imagine what a regal life would be like in a large Victorian home. My family came along with me and I now have a timeless photo of my two children walking down the grand staircase holding hands that will be the placeholder in my mind for the sweet innocent time of their lives that they are in right now. Repeat sessions already booked, can't recommend this gem enough. Free private parking, fast wifi, walking distance to food, drinks, and fun. A must have for weddings or an elevated event/date night.

Donovan Manor was a dream venue, and we would absolutely recommend getting married here!! The pictures don’t even do it justice. From the first tour, they were so kind and accommodating! The venue itself is so well thought out. It is not only beautiful from the inside out, but the attention to detail and the layout are truly beyond words. The brides suite is spacious, fun, and allows for much more than just getting ready; ie relaxing, dancing, eating and so many photo ops! The guys loved the groom suite! The rose garden is nothing less than stunning! The guests raved about it. Even if we had to do our rain plan, we were excited, because the ballroom is just as breathtaking. We got so many compliments on the beautiful reception (and the chandeliers!!). On top of the venues beauty, the team and owner are so helpful, responsive, and sweet. I felt like they really wanted me to live out my vision, helped answer questions, and made the day go by seamlessly! Even with a million requests from my family and the stress of a possible hurricane coming in- their team was incredible. I can’t thank them enough for truly giving me my dream wedding!
