8 Reasons You Should Host Your Destination Wedding at Ashton Gardens Atlanta

posted on February 27, 2023

Thinking of hosting a destination wedding in Atlanta? You’re not the only one! The vibrant city has been a major draw for couples, coveted for its global cuisine, shopping centers, museums, and beautiful outdoors. However, hosting a wedding when you’re not in the general vicinity of the venue can be a challenging task. You’ll need a dedicated, supportive team of experts and a wedding venue that’s worth it – a venue like Ashton Gardens, which sits just north of the city. Awash in calming whites and tucked amongst the greenery, this stunning estate offers the luxury of privacy: just you, your guests, and the nature that surrounds.

“Ashton Gardens Atlanta is one of the most established venues in Georgia,” experts at Walters Wedding Estates said. “With its 10-year anniversary this March, we’ve hosted thousands of wedding-day celebrations and will always continue to prioritize a five-star experience for everyone.” Here, we’ll share the many reasons you should select Ashton Gardens in Atlanta as the backdrop to your big day – and a few ways Walters Wedding Specialists make planning a destination wedding a breeze.

1. A gorgeous on-site chapel

As one of the most standout features of the venue, Ashton Gardens’ on-site chapel stuns from the get-go. Outside, its ornately carved wooden doors offer a perfect background to your blissful post-ceremony photographs. Inside, you’ll be greeted with ample sunlight pouring from the arched floor-to-ceiling windows and lush, verdant views. What’s more, a well-appointed bridal suite gives you and your best friends a convenient place to prepare for the big day ahead.

2. A spacious reception site

Love the floor-to-ceiling windows? You’ll find them at Ashton Gardens’ reception hall, too. The ballroom is airy and bright, boasting spectacular garden views from every vantage point. Everything about the atmosphere emanates romance – from the grand chandeliers that drip from the ceiling to the elegant staircase made for a dramatic entrance. Last but not least, the expansive dance floor offers you and your guests plenty of room to sway the night away.

 

3. Ample parking space

One of the biggest obstacles for hosting a wedding in the middle of a bustling city? Finding parking – not just for you, but for the 200-plus invitees on your guestlist. Luckily, that’s not a concern at Ashton Gardens; here, you’ll find a paved parking lot with lots of vacant spots ready to receive your friends, colleagues, and family members.

4. Accessible location

Sitting just outside of the city center, Ashton Gardens boasts awe-inspiring scenic views of the forested Georgia landscape. It’s peaceful and private – an idyllic backdrop for your special day. That said, the property is also just 40 miles north of Atlanta’s award-winning restaurants, shopping centers, museums and attractions. In other words, you get the best of both worlds when you host your wedding at Ashton Gardens.

 

5. Immaculate landscaping

Attention to detail is key to what makes Ashton Gardens such a special place for tying the knot – and this extends beyond the ceremony and reception space. From the moment you drive into the parking lot and walk up to the property’s entrance, you’ll be surrounded by immaculate landscaping. Think: lush lawns and towering trees that lend a sense of seclusion and isolation to the venue.

6. Customizable packages

The team at Walters Wedding Estates knows that every couple is different – and there’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to weddings. Your big day should be all about you and your love story, which is why we always strive to create personalized experiences. Alleviating major planning stressors and headaches, Walters Wedding Estates offers in-house catering and beverage packages – each customized and fine-tuned to your needs and wants.
