As a wedding guest, I would not recommend this venue. Had the worst experience, it was so unprofessional and tacky.
not implemented response 09/15/2024
We sincerely regret that your experience with us did not meet your expectations. Our goal ...
is always to provide a memorable and exceptional experience for every guest.
In regard to the event you mentioned, we made every effort to accommodate the numerous last-minute changes requested by the bride’s parents to ensure a smooth and beautiful occasion. However, there were serious incidents involving inappropriate behavior from some guests, including threats made to a 16-year-old child and a female staff member, which we do not take lightly.
Despite these challenges, our team continued to provide the best service possible. Unfortunately, due to escalating behavior from certain guests, we had no choice but to involve the authorities to ensure the safety of everyone present. The safety and well-being of our staff and guests are always our top priority, and we will never tolerate any form of harassment or threats, especially toward minors or employees.
We would also like to clarify some important details regarding the event. Throughout the evening, several contract violations and property damages resulted in approximately $7,000 in charges. These charges were accrued due to damages caused by guests, along with violations of the agreed-upon terms outlined in the contract. Despite these issues, we have at this time chosen not to bill for these charges, as we remain committed to providing an excellent experience and wanted to ensure that the situation didn’t overshadow the couple’s special day.
We hope this provides clarity, and we remain committed to creating a safe and positive environment for all our events.

Our wedding day was a dream. Ashley and her staff went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable. We chose the Hazlehurst House because of the historic charm of the grounds, the beautiful house, and the all-inclusive nature of the venue. Due to our location and schedules, Carl and I were unable to meet with Ashley as much as we would have liked. However, that did not stop her from seeing our vision and bringing it to life. I was able to share some inspiration photos with Ashley, and she immediately got my vibe. We completely trusted her and her staff to create something amazing, and they absolutely pulled through.
The decor of our ceremony space was everything we hoped for (and then some) based on the inspiration photos we provided. The food and drinks were excellent, and Ashley went out of her way to make sure our signature cocktail was exactly what we wanted. The cake tasted wonderful and looked just as good. DJ Danny also played the perfect mix of songs for our guests. The staff was attentive, friendly, and helpful all throughout the night, and they mitigated any issues before we even knew about them.
Our guests had a wonderful time, Carl and I had a relaxed, fun night, and absolutely every detail was picture perfect. We highly recommend Hazlehurst House to anyone looking for a beautiful venue with incredible staff. Thank you to Ashley and her crew for making our wedding ceremony everything we could have dreamed!

Absolutely wonderful! I had my wedding here in October and it could not have been more perfect. The coordinating team made everything exactly how I envisioned it. So many of my guest told me how beautiful the wedding was and how much they enjoyed the day. Everything during the planning process was so easy and organized. They took so much of the stress off when planning my wedding. I would absolutely recommend this venue to any bride! You will not be disappointed.

The Hazlehurst House is the best kept secret in McDonough. Everyone was amazing to work with. Felicia was outstanding in helping us with all the planning. Ashley was an incredible coordinator with the best team. Emily even scrubbed dirt out of my daughter’s wedding dress. The whole crew felt like family and made the day so special. The food was amazing and the cake was delectable. The venue is truly magical as you feel like you have been transformed to the era of Jane Austen into a beautiful English garden and grand house. It was a perfect day!

I couldn't have asked for a better venue. Our wedding was absolutely perfect and Ashley was amazing from start to finish. From the initial meeting as we toured the venue she told us exactly what we should expect and gave us lots of ideas. It's thanks to her that we had the perfect bridal procession song. The meetings were both fun and productive and my husband and I always looked forward to talking with Ashley. We were fortunate to book the venue before the renovations, and it looks even more beautiful now. Their grounds provide ample photo opportunities with a swing in the front yard and gardens.. Ashley helped us stay on budget and was always there when we needed her. She kept in contact in case something popped up and we were able to get any issues resolved immediately.
Danny the DJ (BEST DJ EVER) was so easy to work with! He had great song ideas and was able to pick up our personalities pretty fast. Working with him was fun as we bounced songs off each other. We had some EPIC dance moments due to his mad skills!
The day of the wedding ran like clockwork. Everyone was exactly where they were supposed to be and Ashley had it all together. When one of the groomsmen's pocket squares turned up missing, she was able to quickly craft one out of some leftover wedding favors and it was indistinguishable from the others. Out of the million things that could have gone wrong that day everything worked out right. We thoroughly enjoyed working with Ashley and Danny (the DJ). 10/10 Would ALWAYS recommend Hazlehurst House.

I don't even know where to start!!!! Actually, I do! Let me start with saying how AMAZING Ashley was from the beginning of this process all the way to the end. She made sure to reach out to me with any cool ideas she could think of. I gave her my vision for the Wedding and she went above and beyond to make sure my day was perfect. When I was in panic mode she remained calm and helped me to relax. The wedding day was perfect, food was amazing, all the staff were so helpful and also went above and beyond, venue is BEAUTIFUL!!! I am so happy I chose this venue and have 0 regrets. I will never forget this day and all the amazing people that helped put it all together !

RIP OFF...... (outside of how nice they were during planing, not worth your money)
MULTIPLE REASONS:
1. They won't tell you this until after the wedding. They will NOT allow you to have left overs! "Because of insurance ". Its no where listed in contract either. We paid for 25 extra plates of people that no showed. You know that food went somewhere.
2. our guests all complained about portions of food they were given were sooooo tiny and by the time they were allowed out of seats to get seconds, they removed the food layout.
So between 1 and 2 we wasted thousands on food.....
3. I dont drink beer I mad that beyond clear. As the bride I paid for the peachtini package. The bar did not keep it stocked and I was only able to get 2....... then he says you can have beer.... (another few thousand wasted)
4. Felt rushed the whole night!
5. $300 worth of sparklers missing. I called the next week because they did not send them with us or my dress hanger. She said we could pick them up .the staff said they had no idea and someone probably took them home or threw them out.
If i could redo my wedding I would not have wasted my money here.
Its beautiful and a 1 stop shop, but they don't tell you everything and everytime you ask about something the answer changes.
Again not worth it!

We got married at the Hazlehurst House in Nov 2020 and could not be happier with our experience! The food, flowers, DJ, cake, decor, and all of the little details were perfect, but the best part of working with the Hazlehurst House was the peace of mind that came with knowing they were taking care of everything! Everything being under one roof and the amazing staff made wedding planning so much easier leading up to the wedding day. I knew Leslie, Sydney, and everyone else at the venue had everything under control day of, from making sure me and my husband didn't see each other before the ceremony to packing up our cars at the end of the night! All of the staff made our day perfect and I highly recommend this venue to anyone who is looking for a romantic and memorable event!

My husband and I got married at the Hazlehurst House last month and we couldn’t recommend it more! From the moment we stepped foot on their property, we felt welcomed and knew it was OUR venue. The staff is incredibly kind and accommodating and worked around a myriad of schedules and circumstances to ensure I felt taken care of. In the current age of COVID-19, planning a wedding is pretty stressful; however, Leslie and the whole Hazlehurst team made sure we felt safe and heard when expressing any concerns! If you’re looking for a picturesque wedding venue without sacrificing service, I HIGHLY recommend the Hazlehurst House; you won’t be disappointed!

The Hazlehurst was very beautiful. I enjoyed working with Felicia. I do wish I was given a little more direction and had more hands on work with negotiating what was needed for my guests’ hotel stay. Other than that, they were very easy to communicate with and easily accessible.

Our experience with Hazelhurst House was fantastic. Leslie and her team were a pleasure to work with. They worked hard to make all of our ideas a reality. We were an out of state couple getting married in Atlanta, so we really appreciated that any time we were in the same area they made a real effort to meet with us and figure out exactly what we wanted. They gave us an amazing amount of access to the venue to set it up just how we wanted it. I can't emphasize enough how nice it was that were so willing to make sure that we had access to the venue anytime that we needed it. The DJ that they recommended was amazing, meeting with us before the wedding to make sure that we were on the same page and great during the wedding as well. We received endless compliments on the cake, it was by far the best wedding cake either of us have ever had. All of the workers her were there for the wedding were super kind and helpful. Parking was plentiful and well run, no parking difficulties like at so many other Atlanta venues that we researched. Choosing Hazelhurst House as our venue was a great choice, working with professionals who really cared about our wedding made everything so much easier. Many of our guests commented about how beautiful the venue was and how they could tell just how much work went into making the wedding so amazing. The venue was beautiful, the staff was amazing, and our wedding was so much less stressful than I imagined it would be thanks to the team at Hazelhurst House.

Wow. This is one word to describe this lovely and historic gem located in the heart of McDonough, Georgia. From the moment my (now) husband and I walked through the doors we knew this was the place for us. We could feel the love in the air and from the staff throughout as we planned our wedding. The concept we probably loved most about them was they wanted to do all the “busy work” for us and they wanted us to just relax and enjoy the biggest day of our lives. And that, they did. From the delicious food catered by their very own in house Tasteful Events catering, to an unforgettable cake selection, beautiful flowers, and classy reception decorations they really outdid themselves. It was all so beautiful as the venue itself is and I would definitely recommend checking them out. You will fall in love getting #hitchedathazlehurst ❤️

Awesome! That is how I would describe Hazlehurst staff, venue and all around service. My daughter got married on August 4, 2018. Her and her now husband are both military and didn't live here locally. She told me what she wanted and I ran with it. When I went to Hazlehurst and gave them the vision and what I wanted to bring, they were excited and even gave me some ideas. The whole process was amazing. Felicia is amazing! She ensured along with her staff that everything was PERFECT! The DJ Gerry was exceptional as well. I can't thank them enough for taking great care of us and our guest. They are truly a gem and I would definitely recommend them.

We got married on June 16th and the Hazlehurst House was just amazing! The location is beautiful and super convenient so far as facilities having everything you need, the garden is perfect for photos (we had our wedding at the Garden Wall which admittedly is VERY hot in June because it's hit by direct sunlight), the inside of the house is gorgeous and a perfect holding spot for our wedding party and the addition ballroom is a beautiful location for the reception and the verdandah makes for a cool and unique dance floor. Felicia and Mike were the best! Felicia went above and beyond to make my dream wedding a reality. No kidding! When I sent Felicia a photo of the bouquet I wanted from Pinterest I thought okay they'll kinda make it similar---YA'LL it was the EXACT same flowers! Rebecca the florist is so talented! Everything I wanted they were able to do. I cannot find ONE thing I didn't love about the wedding. It was absolutely perfect. Everything went smoothly and the one-stop shop with their in-house kitchen makes everything so much simpler. Although it's not cheap, you pay for what you get: peace of mind! And you won't be disappointed. Highly recommend and thank you again to all of the day-of coordinators who made this day so very special for my husband and I, and our family and friends. Thank you!!!

The hazelhurst house and their staff went over and beyond to make our wedding day the success it was! Everything turned out perfect. On the day of my wedding it was predicted to rain which had me panicking a bit since my ceremony was outside. Nikki handled things like a Pro always keeping me calm and reassuring me that we’d do whatever we had to do to make me happy. Thankfully, God literally held the rain off until 5 minutes after my ceremony. Overall, I could not be happier with choosing “The hazelhurst house” as my venue its a one stop shop. The packages they offer eliminates the added stress of having to search for other vendors they have everything in house. They literally do all the work for you. Best of all the prices are exceptionally reasonable as well! October 7, 2017 was THE BEST DAY EVER❤️ and I owe it all to them for making our day so special! Btw my guest are still calling and raving about how beautiful the wedding was! I can’t say it enough Thanks again! For helping us create a memory we will cherish forever.

Our wedding at Hazlehurst House was truly wonderful. I was planning everything from the West coast so having a planner to help arrange all of the details was essential. I admit that I found myself disappointed in the planner we were assigned. She was relatively new and some important details were overlooked throughout the planning process. My first planning meeting was with Felicia. She was exquisite, extremely professional. I was actually under the impression that she would be taking care of the wedding details until I started receiving emails from someone else. No one ever explained to us that we would be working solely with another staff member.
Our meeting with the planner was hurried, entire pages of details were skipped over. We flew all the way across the country for this meeting and I think we were there a total of 5-10 minutes. My dad had actually just passed away. I had to mention to her that we would not need a boutonniere for him. I got teary. I'll never forget that moment. She just stared at me with wide eyes and a strange look on her face. There was no empathy from her whatsoever. It was a very odd moment. Her overall demeanor and level of professionalism just wasn't what I expected after working Felicia.
Overall, despite some of the stress involved in the planning process we would have our wedding there again in a heartbeat. Everyone had a great time and it really was a beautiful wedding.

Cannot brag enough on this venue and the staff!! Had our wedding May 7, 2016 and it was PERFECT!! Tammy was our planner and she helped us bring our vision to life and made it so much better than we could have ever hopped for! She paired us with awesome vendors and was there to help us every step of the way, she's AWESOME!! Nikki was our day of coordinator and she organized the crap out of our day! She helped keep everything on schedule and made sure everyone and everything was where it needed to be. We were a little hesitant about the price but you definitely get your moneys worth; it is so worth every penny the entire crew down to the wait staff was nothing but professional, helpful, and so kind! Would HIGHLY recommend this venue to anyone interested!!!

My wedding reception was held at The Hazlehurst House on November 8th. My worst nightmare came true 3 months prior to my wedding…..my original reception venue would not be built in time after numerous promises otherwise. I called and spoke to Ashley at the Hazlehurst house who I automatically felt comfortable and confident with. Within a few hours of speaking to her she helped my re-plan my entire reception and menu. The Hazlehurst house was so accommodating and welcoming to me and my family. Ashley is extremely organized and responsive. She kept an open communication with me the entire time and I knew when I showed up to the reception that everything would be taken care of as I had 100% confidence that she would make it perfect. The food was wonderful, the staff was very friendly and professional to me and my guests and everyone complimented the venue and its charm. Thank you Hazlehurst House, Ashley and team.

The Hazlehurst House did a fantastic job for our early fall wedding! We scheduled the wedding from out of town, so we were initially worried about the process, but the staff made coordinating easy. Ashley worked with us on everything from setting up the hotel for our out of town guests to providing possible locations for on outdoor picnic-style rehearsal dinner. Every time we needed anything, Ashley delivered. She communicated on her days off and was always reachable as the day approached. On the day of the wedding, the entire staff made the process simple for us. The food was delicious, the signature drink we chose was excellent, and the venue was decorated gorgeously. Though it is a small thing, having the gifts/decorations/misc. stuff loaded into our cars for us was a great help. All we had to do was give the staff our keys before the wedding and tell them who was taking what, and it was done when the night was over! I highly recommend the Hazlehurst House for your big day!

My fiancé and I wanted a beach wedding. Due to our families being in so many places, we chose to have a private, family-only ceremony on the beach. We chose The Hazlehurst House to have our "hometown reception" to celebrate with our family and friends. Felicia and Ashley did an absolutely fabulous job with our wedding. Anything we requested, they made it happen. The decor was top-notch, the food was phenomenal, and our DJ was the best. Having the reception at an "all inclusive" venue was the greatest idea we've ever had.

I fell in love with the Hazlehurst house immediately when driving up. It has such a grand feel to it and the garden patio is beautiful. After looking around at a few different locations I decided that I wanted to get married there. I mainly worked with Ashley at the Hazlehurst house. She is very friendly and understanding and I was happy that we were partnered with her.
Hazlehurst was very organized and you can tell that they have done multiple wedding and are very experienced. We had a few miscommunications however in the beginning as my mom was doing most of the wedding planning and was in charge of the decorations, coordinating flowers, etc. (we were trying to save some money by having a lot of DIY things at the wedding and not having to hire wedding planner). So parts of this stressed my mom out a good bit, and in turn stressed me out. It was things like being told we couldn’t set up early and would have do everything hours before the wedding, etc. However, thankfully, last minute, Hazlehurst let my mom go in the day before (no wedding before mine) and set up and store some of her bigger items. This was a huge relief on my mom and really helped us out and she was very happy she could do that. There were some other minor things during the wedding planning process, but everything did work out very well in the end. Part of it I think can be attributed to how stressful planning a wedding can end up being.
The rehearsal went ok. I was given a rehearsal director with the package from the house and I had never met her before. Although I think she was a very sweet woman, during the rehearsal I would have preferred her to be more assertive and gain everyone’s attention better. There were a lot of people talking when we were going through the different steps, etc. I didn’t want to have to yell at everyone or tell them to pay attention (I didn’t want to be a bridezilla), so I would have really appreciated it if she had been more direct and assertive. I probably should have said something to her, but I just let it be. At the ceremony, everyone remembered what they were supposed to do, so it turned out fine.
The florist wasn’t able to come until 4 (wedding started at 6), so the florist wasn’t too happy about that. Some of the staff upon her arrival commented to her that “you’re cutting it pretty close” etc., when that was the time that she was told she was allowed to arrive. So, I thought that was pretty strange.
I, as the bride, felt very stress-free and taken care of on the wedding day. I even had a bridal attendant who help carry my dress train. At the reception, we were able to sit down and our food was delivered to us, and it tasted incredible (catered with the Hazlehurst house). All the service staff were really good - I was impressed at how they were so professional, and how smoothly everything ran. We got so many compliments on the venue, food, cake, and service. I’d also like to compliment Russell, who was the banquet manager. Although I didn’t get much interaction with him personally, my mom had many guests who told her how personable, and friendly. From everything that I could tell, the ceremony and reception went incredibly well and nothing as far as I know nothing “went wrong”, which is a huge blessing. All the guests loved the venue, the food, and the cake, and were very impressed with everything. In the end, all of the minor things worked out, and I’m very happy with choosing the Hazlehurst house as our venue.

I loved having our wedding here. The staff and planners did everything they could to make our wedding everything we dreamed. The only problem we encountered was it seemed that every little thing that was extra would cost extra. This is something that you will encounter at just about any all-inclusive venue.

The Hazlehurst House is a beautiful venue for anyone looking to have "southern charm" as a part of their wedding. I chose this place as my venue because it reminded me so much of the historic homes back in Savannah where I am from. The staff here is very efficient and helpful through every step of the process. I have received so much positive feedback from family and guests about how beautiful the wedding was, and how great the food tasted. I would recommend this venue to anyone looking to book a wedding. Margaret became my planner about a month before my wedding due to my planner having outside circumstances and she did an awesome job on the day of the wedding. My bridal attendant was Katie and she was super sweet and always there for whatever I needed.

From the moment we step foot at the Hazlehurst House we fell in love with the venue. The greatest part about the Hazlehurst House is that you can either use the vendors they have or you can bring in your own. We did both and it made the year that we were engaged the LEAST stressful part of the whole process. The staff is exceptionally nice, they will give you recommendations, opinions, options, and will cater to your every need. We worked with Felicia, Margaret, and Leslie and loved all of them. Our wedding day was perfect, from flowers, to decorations, to food/cake, and DJ. Eric is the DJ's name and he is a blast, he knows how to get the party going and how to keep things rolling! The food/cake was absolutly delicious. We had so many compliments on every aspect of the wedding from the venue to the food, to the DJ we couldnt have asked for a better place to spend our special day.

I got married on August 4 in Griffin at the church my parents were married in and had the reception in McDonough at the Hazlehurst House. The two were 30 minutes apart, but that was not a problem at all, thanks to our wedding planner at the HH, Leslie Bishop. She was so organized and thought of everything to cover even the smallest details of our "day." Everything was just perfect! The HH is absolutely breathtaking and we had some beautiful pictures taken on the grounds. The main house is a beautiful antebellum house built in the early 1800's. The bride's room is lovely and also is the perfect setting for wonderful pictures. The ballroom was so beautiful and the food on the buffet was delicious! There was absolutely not a worry on my wedding day because Leslie and her wonderful staff took care of everything. My parent's gave her their car keys when they arrived, and they didn't have to do another thing the entire evening, except visit our guests. The staff put all of the gifts, cake, my dress and anything else we brought that day into their car. all they had to do was leave. It was absolutely my dream wedding!

The HH staff made everything a breeze, the only thing I had to stress over was my bridesmaids taking forever to get dressed.
The food was incredible, the service was great, and they took care of everything: coordination at the ceremony venue, timelines, packing things up and getting them into the right cars, and more.

I visited at least 20 different venues in he metro Atlanta area. Even though The Hazlehurst House was over an hour away from both friends and family, we fell in love with it! What a breathtaking venue! We had a ton of options as far as set up for the ceremony and reception. The ballroom is spectacular and very spacious! The staff is extremely accommodating! Everyone was blown away with the quality of service and food! Hazlehurst house holds a bridal extravaganza a couple times a year and I highly recommend attending one of these. There you get to meet a lot of the vendors that they us as well as taste the food to get an idea of what the offer. They also have a few packages to choose from which makes planning a little easier! All in all this venue was a great choice for us and we would recommend them to anyone!

Although we currently live in Orlando, FL, after searching around the Atlanta area, we feel in love with Hazlehurst House immediately. Leslie made us feel like family and was so completely organized I feel like I barely had to do a thing. And when I would forget to do something that had been request, well she kept me in line, which i LOVED! Planning a wedding from 400 miles away should normally be very stressful, however I never ONCE felt like anything had been overlooked during the planning process and leading up to our big day. They even were very quick to help me when I had an issue with the provided grooms cake. Leslie was able to keep the whole family and crazy friends in line for both the rehearsal and wedding, which made the day just full of fun for myself and new husband. Hannah our assistant was amazing! I guess I didnt really fully understand what an assistant would do for me that my bridesmaids couldnt, but I just dont think the day would have been the same without her. The Hazlehurst Team went above and beyond to make everything perfect. Overall, I wish I could do it all again because it was the most special day of my life.

My husband and I were married on March 25, 2012 at the Hazlehurt House. Our wedding day was more than we could have ever imagined it to be. Leslie, our wedding director, made everything stress free and the wedding ran so smoothly. As a bride, you want to enjoy planning your wedding and the wonderful staff made the planning so easy. We did not have to worry about finding outside vendors for our wedding, the Hazlehurt provides all of the vendors, which is a blessing. Our wedding was outdoors and the weather was amazing. The flowers, reception food, and DJ also made our day even more special. We will always remember getting married at the Hazlehurt House.

After my proposal went viral all over the Internet, my fiance and I found ourselves as guest on TV shows such as The Ellen DeGeneres Show, CNN, The Today Show, Good Morning America, and many more. During all our media attention, we were contacted by wedding venues all over the world. We were even contacted by the TV show "My Fair Wedding with David Tutera". We could have had our wedding at dream locations we could only dream about, but, it was always our dream to be married in our hometown at the most incredible wedding venue called the Hazlehurst House. So it wasn't a hard decision for us to keep true to our roots and say "I do" on the grounds of the beautiful house that was built in the early 1800's, in the city we both not only grew up in, but also currently live in.
We are very happy we choose the Hazlehurst House as our wedding venue. They took a ton of stress off of us and took care of so much of the wedding planning. They do a lot of the services in house which made the planning so much more enjoyable for us. They created an incredible dinner menu, booked a great DJ, got us an beautiful cake, and even had Ginny's favorite flowers everywhere even though they were out of season! They had a lot of contacts and suggestions for photography, bands, and everything else needed to make a wedding a day you and your guest will never forget.
On our wedding day, our planner Leslie had everything planned down to the minute. It was awesome! She was so calm and yet excited the whole day. She made us feel like superstars and made our day run as smoothly as possible. We didn't have to stress or worry about one single thing because Leslie had taken care of everything. She stayed in contact with us and kept us updated along the way. We no longer look at her as our wedding planner, we look at her as a friend.
The Hazlehurst House is a place where vows are said, rings are exchanged, memories are made, and little girls dreams of their wedding come true.

i have attended many weddings at the hazlehurst house, and so when it came time to plan my own, i knew where i could go to trust! for a busy bride such as myself, the HH was fantastic! you have a coordinator to help you plan every small detail. almost everything is done in house/in house contracts (food, cake, dj, floral, etc) so at the end of the day you are paying one venue, and not twenty different ones! they were very patient in helping me realize my dream. when it came to the day of, everything was handled. all i had to do was show up, get dressed, and get married! Leslie and her staff are phenomenal! i cant recommend it enough!

Life was stressful graduating from school, starting a new job, moving to a different state all while planning a wedding with a very limited time frame. And then I met Leslie and her fabulous staff at the Hazelhurt house. They helped me plan my wedding in a mere two weeks start to finish and kept in touch for the next several months by email as I was out of state. You are greeted by hugs at every appointment and leave with the confidence that you are in good hands. As a historic house with old southern charm, beautiful gardens and an airy veranda, I couldn't imagine a more perfect place to encompass both an outdoor ceremony with an arbor and an indoor reception. The imagineering and details that went into my vision was amazing and I am still receiving spectacular reviews on the decor, atmosphere, food, staff, flowers, cake, and grounds. The Hazelhurst staff is worth every penny for the ease with which they move you through your day. On the day of, all you have to do is show up, get dressed, and enjoy.

I must say that choosing The Hazlehurst House for our wedding was the best decision my husband and I made. We had a tough time during our wedding planning process because my grandmother became very ill. Due to her sickness, my mother was unable to help with much planning, so we turned to The Hazlehurst House. They went above and beyond to make our day special and unique for us. My grandmother ended up passing away a week before the wedding and without Leslie and The Hazlehurst House staff, my wedding day would have been a wreck. From my wedding planner, Leslie, to the DJ to the food everything was wonderful and perfect on my wedding day. I keep getting comments about our wedding and the wonderful food and staff. I highly recommend The Hazlehurst House for weddings or corporate events. They will make your day special, unique, and stress free.

It has been over a month since my wedding day and I am still in dreamland! The HH House was the perfect setting for my “Southern” dream wedding and the staff did not disappoint. I knew I loved the HH House and after my initial meeting with Leslie Bishop, I knew I made the right choice. Leslie was great and worked with me throughout the entire process even responding to emails and phone calls promptly even when I was sending them after 10PM! At one of my meetings, I changed the entire feel of the wedding including menu and décor and they accommodated each and every idea to make sure I was more than satisfied. Felicia Watts worked with me countless hours to make sure that I had the most gorgeous flowers and that I got the look I truly wanted. The entire crew at the HH House was absolutely amazing. They were a pleasure to work with and made each and every day of my engagement fun and stress free! Thank you HH House for the perfect fairy tale day! You are amazing!

I planned my wedding on a budget. It was hard to find vendors that were willing to work within my budget and still look like a million bucks. The Hazlehurst House did everything in their power to make my wedding the most memorable day of my life. From the wedding planner to the day-of attendant they can pride themselves on service. I had such a wonderful experience and will always remember it. With the beautiful backdrops in my pictures to the taste of their famous peach punch, I will always look back on my wedding day and have great memories!

We feel in love with the Hazlehurst the first moment we walked onto the grounds. From our first meeting with Leslie to the day of the wedding, she did everything she could to make our wedding perfect. She did so with great success! Everything from the invitations, food, flowers, DJ, photographer, violinists, etc. were taken care of through the Hazlehurst. Our guests are still talking about the wedding, which I find is a result of the excellent job of Leslie and the Hazlehurst. If you are looking for an all inclusive venue that is elegant and beautiful then the Hazlehurst is the place. Leslie and the rest of the staff will make your day even more special.

I never felt like just another bride with the Hazlehurst House staff. They made me feel welcome from the very first day. Our wedding planner, Leslie, really worked with us to keep us in budget and to make us happy. She made sure that I got what I wanted, even when my mom and fiance were pushing a different idea. Leslie helped us compromise so that we were all happy! The florist is great to work with too. Some things were forgotten that we had discussed, but overall I was pleased on our wedding day!

I have been planning my wedding for the past year and a half. Most brides are pretty stressed out planning their wedding, but not me. The staff at the Hazlehurst House made planning my wedding virtually stress free. I met with Leslie, the wedding coordinator, 3 times to plan and and organize exactly what I wanted. Everything is done there. Flowers, Food, Cake, Invitations, Music. You name it and they can get it done for you. They simply remove the headache of planning your wedding so you can just enjoy your day & enjoy my day I did. Everything was perfect.(Thanks Lauren) When we arrived the day of the wedding, we had snacks (which were delicious) and champagne waiting for us. I also had someone assigned just to me to make sure I had everything I needed. I was a princess bride for a day. The photog. came in (who was super fun) and took a ton of phots which turned out better than I could have imagined. My flowers were exactly as I pictured. The cake was exquisite. I danced the night away while the DJ kept the music going at my dream wedding. No stress,perfect wedding!

I loved that they helped with everything! From the invitations to the food to the dj! They also were able to move my reception from outside to inside because of weather and it was still beautiful.;Small things are not included! Ask for a breakdown of each thing you are paying for.

The florist was amazing! Perfect flowers and candlelight. The decor was very elegantly done and the servers were very friendly to everyone. The food was delicious and presented beautifully. It was a package deal - ceremony flowers reception with food floral and other decor for the reception and the cake. The cake far exceeded our expectations as well!;The person assigned to 'co-ordinate' our wedding was unorganized and inattentive to specific details we had discussed.

It was so romantic. Even though we had more of a party than a reception they catered to our every need. Including great DJ's to get the party started. We danced all night and even the older people got up and danced;This is a great spot for you formal dinner parties. Or if you want to go to a PAR-TAY this is a great spot too. All around service, food, GREAT PICTURE backdrop, and everything was an 11 out of 10!!!
