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.

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.

Not bad, but most of the buildings were closed.

So beautiful and peaceful place to go for walk. The goats are cute, and all the animals there as well. I can say the owners and workers care about the animals pretty well.
Autrey Mill Nature Preserve & Heritage Center•Sep 11, 2026Thank you for the wonderful review! We are so glad that you enjoyed our hiking trails! Our goats are truly special! Did you know that Cuzco, the blonde goat, is the leader of the group? Please come back and visit us again soon!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Autrey Mill Nature Preserve with our Valor Hybrid community! From start to finish, this was an outstanding field trip and one that our students and families will remember for a long time. The staff was exceptionally knowledgeable, welcoming, and accommodating, and they did a fantastic job engaging our students and making the experience both educational and fun. Their enthusiasm and expertise truly enhanced the day. The grounds are beautiful, well-maintained, and provide such a wonderful setting for students to explore and learn. There was something special about being outside, discovering nature, and experiencing hands-on learning together as a community.
Autrey Mill Nature Preserve & Heritage Center•Sep 11, 2026Judy- Thank you so much for the outstanding review! We really enjoyed working with the Valor Hybrid students! We hope that you will book a field trip with us again in the future!
