    Gilly Francis Events absolutely love working at Aberdeen. The property is stunning with multiple outdoor areas for a ceremony or outdoor/tented reception, along with a beautiful white modern barn called Magnolia Hall, as well as a cute, tiny Chapel. The 100-year-old farmhouse is the centerpiece of the property, and many brides choose to get married in this area. The onsite staff handles the setup along with transporting guests and vendors sound as it's over 100 acres. Couples have the option of a one-day event or the entire weekend with overnight accommodations for up to 18 people. The property has meadows, woodlands, and 5 large ponds that are full of their resident Canadian geese, ducks, and herons. The venue provides boats, kayaks, stand up paddle, and fishing rods, making it a destination wedding option. Gratefully, Gilly Francis

    Absolutely stunning Venue

    I’ve done many shoots over the years in many different locations, but Aberdeen is my absolute favorite venue to shoot at. Anytime I get a request for there, I am truly so excited. It is so picturesque in every season, and the staff is wonderful. I look forward to working with them again!


Aberdeen Venue rests on 101 acres at 4800 Monroe Highway, Statham, Georgia 30666. We are close to the intersection of Highway 53 and Highway 78, about 15 minutes from downtown Athens and about an hour from Atlanta.
As we require all weddings at Aberdeen to have a professional wedding planner, we ask that our guests hire their own planner or day-of coordinator. We have a few preferred wedding planners we work with frequently and will happily suggest if you would like to call on them. Additionally, an Aberdeen employee will attend your event to assist in any way regarding our venue’s facilities.
Our vision for Aberdeen is to welcome each bride and groom to plan their special day in a way that suits them best. We welcome you to hire your choice of a wedding planner and/or day-of coordinator, florist, photographer, musicians, caterers, etc. Additionally, we are happy to provide you with a list of exceptional vendors we enjoy working with.
Events can be scheduled throughout the week on any day. We have to abide by the area’s sound ordinance which requires us to have a “Finish Time” of 10:00 p.m. on weeknights and 11:00 p.m. on weekends. All guests will need to leave the venue by 10:30 on weeknights and 11:30 p.m. on weekends. The start time of a wedding day is 9:00 am as the venue is yours for the day.
We have multiple outdoor spots for your wedding or other celebrations. Large and small tents may be rented to bring onto the property that will blend in beautifully anywhere on our grounds. We have a 3,500-square-foot open-air pavilion as well as a refurbished barn that has 2,500 square feet. We currently have 150 Chiavari chairs, 150 white lawn chairs, and we have 15 round tables. Additionally, there are several rental and event companies nearby where our guests may rent additional tables and chairs.
Our main house has been restored with brides in mind. There is a full bath with a soaking tub, a professionally lighted make-up mirror for the bride’s spot, along with other areas for her bridesmaids to enjoy getting dressed and ready together. Our groomsmen also have their own place to dress, get ready, and enjoy each other’s company while they prepare for their entrance to the ceremony.
We have a state-of-the-art catering-prep kitchen with warming ovens, large refrigerators, a large ice machine, a microwave, three ovens, a stovetop range, and a dishwasher.
We do require appointments for tours to ensure our gates and buildings are all unlocked. Tours are typically given Mondays through Fridays between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.
Fireworks are not allowed on any part of the property. We have two fireplaces in our manor, though we do not allow building fires in either of the fireplaces. We do, however, have a designated fire pit for your guests to enjoy sitting around. We happily provide the wood for the fire pit.
