“I am so glad I decided to get married at Historic Ann’s. The hosts are friendly and communicative, and happy to answer any questions. The space is absolutely beautiful and very enchanting. We were able to decorate the spaces to match our theme & vision for the event, which made things even more special. Having the different areas available helped to keep the party moving, provide spaces to rest from dancing, and gather in spaces away from the music so you can talk. It was also nice to be able to rent the Airbnb’s so we didn’t have to worry about where we were staying those nights.”
