About this venue
Autrey Mill Nature Preserve is 46 Acres of forested woodland trails, ravines, gardens and historic buildings. We provide a unique setting for weddings, receptions, anniversary celebrations, and more! The arrangement of our historic buildings forms a small historic village for a charming wedding venue. You can have your ceremony in the old Warsaw Church or under the canopy of the forest on the Amphitheatre and host your reception just a short stroll away in the Summerour House or Pole Barn. Rental fees are used for the continuing preservation of Autrey Mill’s natural environment and history, to provide educational programming, and to operate the preserve.
Our event spaces
Warsaw Church
The Warsaw Church began as a campground in the early 1820s, started by a group of Moravians from the Savannah River area.
During the Civil War, it was used as a meeting place for local men to gather and prepare to fight the Union Army. The Church was built in the 1860s and was relocated to Autrey Mill in 2004 from its original site on Medlock Bridge Road. Since its relocation to the Autrey Mill property, it has undergone extensive renovation and is currently used for concerts, meetings, lectures, and weddings. *Historic pews *Podium *Lifted and carpeted stage *Covered front porch

The perfect venue
Just amazing all around. The perfect venue for nature lovers. The historic home was a beautiful dinner setting and the pole barn was awesome for dancing. Definitely recommend! We will be back for anniversary dates and just a great place to explore with all the cute animals and quaint gardens.

Wedding at Autry Mill
Loved having my ceremony here at the little house. I wanted to have my reception there as well, however, the City of Johns Creek requires an alcohol permit and insurance which would have cost us more than the venue cost. This is not in any way Autry Mills fault. It is not their requirement but it was disappointing to us having to make last minute venue changes for our reception.

Weston
We had a great experience and the employees were very helpful and very nice. Me and my kids visited the visitor center the employees are really nice they explained everything and the animals. If you are an animal lover I think you definitely should come to the visitor center! The goats were really cute, is right next to the parking lot you don’t need to walk to far.There is flowers in a butterfly garden. My kid loves here we are definitely coming back!🦋
