Mrs
The Magnolia Room at Ponce de Leon's Fountain of Youth Archaeological Park was the perfect venue for our wedding. They were very responsive throughout the planning process, which put us at ease. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, with its historic charm and well-manicured grounds. The staff was attentive and made sure our day went smoothly. My family loved seeing the peacocks roaming the property - it added such a unique touch! Overall, the Magnolia Room provided a stunning backdrop for our special day and we're so glad we chose this venue.
