We were battling the weather on the day of the wedding and Dawn did everything possible so that my daughter could still have her wedding outdoors, as planned. I witnessed Dawn personally wipe down over two hundred rain soaked chairs, not only once, but TWICE before the guests arrived. Chef Andrew helped created a delicious appetizer and wedding menu that all guests enjoyed. The Burge staff were very friendly and accommodating throughout the day to do what was needed. A nice touch at the end of the reception included the owner of Burge checking on our wedding experience and satisfaction, which was wonderful!

After almost giving up hope on finding an all around affordable yet quality venue, my fiancé and I stumbled upon Burge Plantation. We reached out for information and immediately knew we had found THE place. The pricing is what we first noticed ...
about Burge and how it was something that we could afford and still be able to have a honeymoon too. Then we met with Dawn who quickly was able to answer any questions we had as well as being very flexible in being able to meet and discuss your dream wedding. The responses we received even a year out in our planning process made us feel like our event was the only event for the next twelve months. We were always included in each tasting and even went twice because it was that amazing. At the tastings you not only get to gain confidence in the chef but the service you will receive as well. When storms this year knocked down a tree Burge was quick to clean up and the grounds were always well maintained. There are also so many places to take pictures. Dawn made sure to ask every question so I didn’t even have to worry about forgetting anything. In our trips up to the venue in the weeks before every staff member was friendly and willing to help and even let you know that they are looking forward to your big day just like they were a guest. Dawn handeled the rehearsal and managed all of our different family members effortlessly. On the day of she made sure to keep us in the loop, send pictures, and ask questions. She knew what we wanted and made it even better than we could have ever imagined. Dawn and her team are unbelievable. They were all smiling and helpful. The food was the best wedding food all of our guests have ever had. Chef Andrew helped customize a menu that fit us as a couple and everyone is still talking about it. Burge isn’t a their way or no way place. They customize and create the wedding of your dreams and my husband and I can’t thank Dawn, Chef Andrew, and the amazing Burge staff enough.

mediately knew that we wanted to have our wedding at Burge and it could not have been more perfect. I could go on and on, so I will try and point out some of the highlights (even though everything about the entire weekend was a highlight). The food - absolutely delicious! Chef Andrew is truly talented and our guests were raving about the menu all night. The venue - simply stunning. We had our ceremony on the front lawn of the main house and the reception (dinner and dancing) in and around the Conservatory. What originally had me "sold" on the location for the reception was the floor to ceiling windows, the outdoor patios, and the overall simplicity which allowed for tons of gorgeous natural light. The staff - inviting, incredible service, and easy to work with (you never had to tell them anything twice). The wedding planning process and cite visits - easy and not stressful. Lastly, Dawn - the wedding coordinator - who deserves her own category. Dawn is a true angel and does her job perfectly. From start to end, she made the entire process fun and really enjoyable! Dawn is the type of person, which I know all brides and their family's appreciate, that you never have to tell her anything twice. She is incredibly efficient and very detailed (which I really appreciated). She was by my side every step of the way, and on my wedding day. I honestly do not know what I would have done without her. Dawn made our wedding day - and the entire weekend - absolutely perfect and a true dream come true! Burge Plantation is the perfect place for a wedding! Thank you guys for everything! <3 Caroline and Josh

She was incredibly helpful, fun to be around and calming from the moment you sit down with her to plan all the little details it takes to make a perfect weekend. Dawn is the complete package and I couldn't have done it without her. She was so wonderful to work with and made our magical day come to life. She was so organized and made everything FLAWLESS!! (Coming from an incredibly OCD Bride!) Next, the FOOD. O.M.G THE FOOD!!!! I only wish I could have more as I am salivating just thinking about it. Actually, we might just go back to the next tasting to enjoy it again! :) But really, Chef Andrew made the weekend. David and I are huge foodies and every meal just blew us (and all of our guests) completely out of the water. Plump Bacon Wrapped Scallops to Organic Free-Range Chicken to a Chicken and Waffles Brunch and to end the weekend with Shrimp and Grits, Veggie Mac and Cheese and the most delicious tenderloin you will ever put in your mouth. This venue is the perfect package. It is a beautiful setting where elegance and the outdoors meet. We were married between two beautiful large trees in the front lawn with a beautiful plantation home in the background. Our guests weren't even off the grassy lawn before being greeted with a glass of champagne on the 15 step walk to the reception site through the Chef Andrew's Herb Garden. The reception area was amazing being able to have both an indoor and outdoor setup. Our guests were able to enjoy games, amazing hors d'oeuvres, fireplaces and firepits in this amazing setting while they waited for our arrival. We couldn't have had more of a perfect weekend, thank you Burge!!!!!!!

Being able to use the big house for the girls to sleep in after the rehearsal dinner and after the wedding reception was so calming for me. They enjoyed it immensely. For us, the parents, having the cabin to stay in before and after the wedding was soothing for our nerves. We were all able to stay and enjoy the setting, mornings and nights. Wedding planning was new to us, and there is so much to do. A planner is a tremendous asset to have. Being able to exchange ideas with someone that has enormous experience is a lifesaver. Yes, that is Dawn, the wedding planner for the Burge. Dawn is absolutely Amazing, calm, cool, and collected, when we might not have been! She can handle all, and anything. She has it down to a science. The vendors, the food, the music, all of it! Big thanks to her! Awesome! This girl knows how to organize! The staff you cannot do without. Charming and so helpful, always making sure we had what we needed. They are dedicated to please. Always there at the right moment. Like when I tried to sneak through the kitchen after the reception was over and the front door was locked. Just don't mess with the kitchen! LOL Very accommodating though! To see my daughter walk out of the big house with her daddy by her side, walking down the lane to the isle between the big trees was gorgeous! The big cross at the trees made it perfect. I'm tearing up just thinking back at it, and how she got to marry the love of her life in that setting, with family and friends all there. My main compliments at the reception were the beautiful wedding and the great food! Chef Andrew, a five star chef, is very talented. From the appetizers to the prime rib, shrimp and grits, to the oysters, everything was delicious. Hats off to the chef! We loved every minute of our daughter's special day! From the rehearsal dinner, enjoying the cabins, breakfast and lunch, getting ready with the girls to the wedding and reception. All, right at the Burge!

The Burge Plantation was the absolute perfect venue for our wedding!! From the moment we walked onto the grounds and saw all of the beautiful trees, reception hall, and cottages we knew this was the place we wanted to get married. My husband is...
an arborist and we got married in front of the main house under two Post Oak trees. The Burge Plantation even let him climb the trees the morning of our wedding to hang lanterns for our ceremony. The wedding planner Dawn is amazing! She is absolutely on top of everything 100%. We currently live in Ohio but are both from Georgia so we had to plan our wedding from out of state. I sent many emails back and forth to Dawn and she always responded quickly and was very thorough. We were able to taste most of our food before hand at the food tasting in January and there we met our photographer, florist, and minister. All of whom are excellent!!! From the flowers to music and food everything was just the way we wanted. The Burge also provides two cottages during the day for the bridal party to hang out and get ready. This was perfect for us because we had several relatives from out of state who we able to come early and spend time with us during the day. The girls cottage also becomes the honeymoon suite at night, so my husband and I didn't have to drive anywhere and we woke up to the gorgeous scenery of the Burge Plantation. Our wedding day was the best day so far and we are so unbelievably happy to have chosen the Burge Planation as our venue. We hope to return through out the years and continue to have wonderful memories there. Thank you to the entire staff at the Burge and Dawn for making our wedding day magical!!

I cannot recommend Burge highly enough. When I first met with Dawn Leonetti at Burge, she asked me what I wanted for my wedding day (a variation on the "what is your VISION for your wedding day?" question that almost every single vendor we...
spoke with asked). I told her I wanted to show up, get married, have a fun party with great food, and to not have to worry about ANY of the details. Dawn and the Burge staff provided all that, and more. In the three weeks leading up to the wedding, when our plans were changing almost by the hour due to last minute RSVPs, wedding party indecisiveness, and various wedding-related freak outs, Dawn calmly incorporated the changes without batting an eye. On the day of our wedding, despite bad weather, an unprepared DJ, a bride who was running late, a florist who was out of contact, and other such challenges, Dawn and her staff had everything under control. I didn't have to worry about anything other than walking down the aisle (which was beautiful and made for gorgeous pictures). When we got to the reception, Dawn had already snagged a plate of appetizers just for us, as our guests were devouring the appetizers (which were AMAZING) at an awe-inspiring rate. She made sure my husband and I had a plate of Chef Andrew's delicious food before the buffet line was open (and again, before the guests descended on the delectable food like a chocoholic at the Ghiradelli factory), and even had plates of food and wedding cupcakes waiting for us in our cabin after the reception ended. We were able to focus on the excitement of getting married, dancing, and spending time with friends and family and NOT worrying about details! Burge is a beautiful location with fabulous food (seriously, the shrimp and grits are to die for), but there are lots of beautiful locations. What set it apart from all the other venues was Dawn and her staff-they made our wedding day as easy and stress-free as possible.

ge was the perfect fit. The house and grounds are beautiful and we took advantage of all they offer for couples getting married on their property. We decided to get married under the trees in the front yard and the sun was setting through the trees directly over our ceremony. GORGEOUS. Dawn, the wedding coordinator at Burge was FANTASTIC. I really can't say a single negative thing and she is what took our experience at Burge from Great to AMAZING. My sister is a wedding photographer and warned me about using only the coordinator that comes with the venue, as they typically aren't as helpful on the day-of as other, independent coordinators. However, after meeting with Dawn, we felt really confident that she would be all that we needed and we were right. I was also in a bad car accident about a month before the wedding and ended up being out for almost 3 weeks directly before the wedding- it didn't help that my mom was in the same accident and couldn't help me much in the final weeks either. Dawn went above and beyond in helping me tie up last minute details that otherwise wouldn't have gotten done. She also answered all of my questions multiple times since I was on so many pain killers that I frequently forgot entire conversations we had already had. She became not only our coordinator, but also a friend. On the actual day of the wedding, Dawn ran the whole show. There was never a time that I needed anything. She helped coordinate the pastor, the band (ceremony and reception), cake person, etc. and I didn't have to worry about a thing. She even set a private table for me and my husband to have a bite of our appetizers and some champagne prior to entering our reception. The minute to breathe and talk before the crazy reception started was a special touch. Additionally, because we knew a member of Burge Plantation, we were able to rent some of the on-property cabins and the main house for our immediate families and wedding party to stay on property. It was so great to have everyone nearby and we hear there was a great after party at one of the cabins after the reception. We also chose to use Paula's Porch (the hunting lodge) for the rehearsal dinner and took a hayride from the rehearsal to the dinner. Burge catered our rehearsal dinner and we give that food 5 stars. After the rehearsal dinner, we hired a guitarist to play for us as we did a bonfire in the fire pit next to Paula's Porch. It was SO much fun. For the reception, overall, the food was great. I'd give it 4.5 starts. I did hear afterwards from a couple of guests that we ran out of one of our main entrees and another similar dish was substituted. No biggie, but we were surprised to hear this since everything else was 100% perfect. A couple others said their beef was a little tough. Again, not a huge reflection on the overall experience, as I didn't notice that my meat was tough, personally, and I'm sure that our guests were blown away by our wedding. In summary: GET MARRIED AT BURGE. If this is your style, there is no better venue. The price was wonderful, especially considering how much is included and our experience was incredible.

accolades that we have received from the guests who attended has been overwhelming. Just to quote a few (of the many): " Yours was as special as any wedding that we have ever attended....the food was divine....your wedding was perfect in every way....Burge was magical...the most memorable wedding that I have ever attended in my life...a perfect venue ...stunning ... incredible ....gorgeous ... amazing ... over-the-top ..." I could go on and on, but needless to say we are very proud parents and very appreciative of the job that Dawn Leonetti, Chef Andrew and the incredible staff at Burge did. Our daughter's wedding was truly wonderful in every sense of the word. Choosing the appropriate venue is a daunting, if not intimidating task, and a destination wedding where you have both the ceremony and the reception only serves to increase the anxiety, but I can tell you this 1) it is worth the effort, 2) the Burge staff does an incredible job of providing guidance and support and 3) the rewards are great. Burge truly is a unique setting that makes for a magical event. And aside from the physical setting itself I would argue that its most attractive feature is the combined skills of Chef Andrew, Dawn Leonetti and their incredibly friendly and ingratiating staff. Dawn has to be one of the most talented, resourceful, cool, calm, collected and competent wedding planners that you can find - she is, to borrow some of our guests comments: AWESOME !! And she will hold your hand and guide you through every step of the way. Chef Andrew is the real deal, a five star chef who had our guests raving about the food - we have literally had guests call us to tell us that it was the best wedding reception meal that they have ever had anywhere in their lives. You get to work directly with him to tailor your menu, he uses nothing but the freshest organic farm-to-table ingredients and everything from the beef tenderloin to the poached salmon and bacon wrapped quail was incredible. He even worked with us to create a signature cocktail whose recipe we obtained from a Charleston restaurant. And finally the staff. There are a lot of wedding venues that you can choose from - hotels, banquet facilities, clubs and the like - but I have never been to any wedding anywhere, where the staff was as friendly, as welcoming and seemed to be genuinely enjoying themselves and taking pleasure in making it a wonderful experience as those at Burge. So many times you go to parties, weddings and events where the catering staff (even with some of Atlanta's top caterers and facilities) seem to be just going through the motions, their demeanor that of someone who is just punching the clock. Not so at Burge. The staff was all smiles and made you feel that they were welcoming you into their house. They genuinely wanted you to have a great time and were thrilled to be a part of it. In short, I cannot say enough about what a wonderful venue Burge is for a wedding. I can say with confidence that you will be rewarded with a magical and memorable experience.

It is an interesting place with an interesting history, as well, and that only adds to its unique charm. The Burge was also my caterer - they require that you use their services if you have your event there, and all I can say is wow! We had steak and chicken, and let me be completely honest when I say that the steak was like butter, the chicken was incredibly moist and full of flavor, and even the sides were amazing.

The Burge Plantation was wonderful and I loved every minute of my wedding! The staff was very helpful and accomodating with everything, especially Neely who was there to help me plan every step of the way. The whole experience was great! T...
he food was also amazing, we are still getting compliments from our guests about how great everything tasted! We dealt directly with the chef which made me feel better as the bride so I knew exactly what I was getting. The setting of the Burge Plantation was perfect for our southern elegence ceremony! The land and house are just gorgeous and made the day beautiful!! We did have a little rain on that day but the ceremony, reception and my pictures still turned out perfectly!! Thanks for everything Burge Plantation!!!
