A Guide to Atlanta Wedding Venues

My goal for this post is that it will become a complete guide to every wedding venue in Atlanta, GA, from the Westside to Decatur, Chamblee, and Buckhead. As long as it is within ITP (In The Perimeter of I-285), it should be in this guide. This guide includes everything from industrial warehouses and luxury ballrooms to rooftop terraces and epic garden locations. This list of venues goes from small and affordable to large and luxurious, so there’s something here for every budget. And no matter where you get married, you will be close to an interstate!
