  • 10South was better than imagined!

    Loved our 10South wedding experience!! The venue was perfect for our 175 person wedding in September. The patio was beautiful for our outdoor ceremony, and I loved the indoor/outdoor cocktail hour option. The team at 10South was lovely to work with from beginning to end, and I'm so happy with our experience. They were very professional, and had a lot of great resources to help plan and visualize the day. The actual day-of was a breeze, and we loved having Megan as our day-of coordinator (she made everything go as planned, and my family could relax and hang out during the getting ready without worrying about the set-up). I would 100% recommend 10South as a wedding venue to others!

    10 South's coordinator Megan Anderson and DJ Terry Palmer rock! Megan is very patient and thoughtful throughout the whole process, from early planning to actual day to the last minute. She seemed professional, experienced, calm and confident, gave clear instructions and recommendations in highly professional and respectful manner, which is hugely helpful. DJ Terry is awesome. So good at this job. Again, very patient and accommodating throughout the planning phase, and on the day of, gave us a seamless and beautiful event. Particularly, our guests one after another came to us and commented that it was the best grand march they have seen, coz DJ Terry rocks. He totally hyped the space up with just the perfect tone and music, and perfect amount of enthusiasm, not overly loud or overshadowing, just felt genuine and passionate. Overall, people had a great time. The venue is beautiful. Again many guests came to us specifically commenting on how beautiful this place is, how everything just flows very well from one space to another. 12 out of 10 experience overall. Highly recommend.

    This is probably going to be long because I can’t say enough good things about 10south. I got married on 9/6/2025 and it was the most incredible day ever. First, Audrey was our event coordinator and she did such a phenomenal job. I was probably the most annoying person with all my questions but she always got back to me so quickly and helped me out so so much. She made sure my vision would come to life. It was also amazing to have the ability to book our djs through them as well as some other add ons so we didn’t have to search (will be reviewing the djs on their page but wow they were great as well!!) The venue has the largest bridal suite out of all the venues I have seen (ones I toured and for weddings I’ve been a part of) which made getting ready feel so much less stressful. We had plenty of space to set up food and all the hair and makeup equipment we needed. The patio is a dream. We had our ceremony outside which was absolutely gorgeous. We then turned it into an area for cocktail hour which worked out amazing because it was so large for the amount of people we had. Of course the reception area is also amazing. The bar staff did incredible, I don’t think anyone had to wait in line for long at all. And it really helped having 2 bars during cocktail hour (Poppy is just adorable). Everything was magical, thanks to the 10south team and the way the venue is set up. I highly highly recommend getting married here!

    Thank you so much, Emily! What beautiful pictures!! We’re overjoyed your day at 10 South was everything you dreamed of. Audrey loved helping bring your vision to life, and our DJs were thrilled to keep the dance floor packed all night. We are so happy that all of our spaces hit the mark and blew your guests away. It means so much to know every detail added to your magical celebration, and it has been 100% our pleasure to be a part of your love story. Wishing you all the joy as you enter married life together!!

    We just got married at 10 South on August 9th & we cannot stop talking about it! It was the best day, with the best people & the best vendors! Audrey Leo was our coordinator & she was so amazing, from planning to setup to having signature cocktails waiting for us after the ceremony, it was all a dream! I honestly trust her with my life. Preston was our DJ & he was so fun to work with! Also they have a newer Photo Booth add on & 10/10 recommend. We got all the pictures a few days after the wedding & our guests loved it! 10 South really doesn’t miss a single detail, and being able to add most things on through the venue made planning so much less stressful! So thankful for everyone at 10 South!
