Hidden Acres

Hidden Arces is the most amazing beautiful venue. Mr Donny is there to answer any questions you may have. If rustic is part of your theme then you can not go wrong with this venue. The moment I stepped out the car onto the party without seeing inside any of the buildings I just knew this was the place for my wedding. We had so much space and time to complete everything for our wedding. And to have a room for my mom and mother in law was great. This venue had me speechless.

Such a beautiful venue! The owner, Donny is amazing! Fast responses, willing to help when he can, and checks in and out throughout the weekend to make sure you have everything you need. Our day was complete with this venue! Everything was there, I loved the salon where all of my girls could get ready with me, while the guys shot skeets and hung out in the groomsmen’s lounge! I would recommend Hidden Acres to anyone!

Amazing management and owner, very easy to work with! They had everything we needed for our big day. Love that we could have rehearsal, ceremony, and reception all in one place!

Hidden Acres is the absolute best wedding venue. It is so beautiful from the chapel to the reception hall to the bridal suite. Donny (the owner) is very accommodating to whatever needs that is requested of him. I highly recommend this venue!!

Hidden Acres is the perfect wedding venue! From the ballroom, to the bridal suite, & the chapel - everything is on site and absolutely beautiful.

We absolutely loved hidden acres! Doney was absolutely amazing he was so helpful and patient! It is absolutely beautiful and peaceful. It definitely is the place to have the wedding of your dreams at!

Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The owner, Donny, was extremely helpful and informative about all the details. He was also present and available during the wedding weekend to make sure everything went off without a hitch. 10/10 recommend!

All you could ask for in a venue. Donnie was quick to get someone out when something was wrong. Venue is beautiful with very few decor needed.

Far beyond expectations. This venue leaves no stone unturned in details . The ambience is dreamlike and the owner was a consummate professional .

Donny and his team were a dream to work with from start to finish. From the moment we booked the venue Donny was there day or night to help us with anything that we needed and answer all of our questions. He allowed us to come to the venue multiple times to make sure everything would be just right on the wedding day. What’s so amazing about this venue other than the obvious beauty is that we were able to come set up everything we needed to before the day of the wedding, have the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner if we wanted to, stay at the cabin with the bridal party the night before, stay in the bridal suite the night of, and take our time with clean up on Sunday. Nothing felt rushed, and it was so fun to work with the venue space. Everything turned out so beautiful and I am so grateful for the rainy day back up plan with the church because the weather decided not to cooperate the day of but I never even had to worry about it. There are endless amounts of benefits with using this venue and you get your money’s worth and then some! We were so blessed to be able to have had our wedding here and we wish we could do it all over again!

This venue is absolutely BEAUTIFUL and AMAZING!! It was everything we could have dreamed of and way more! Donny was very helpful with everything and available at anytime we needed him or needed to go to the venue.

This venue is absolutely amazing! Donny was always accommodating any time we wanted to take pics, practice table placement, or meet the vendors there. Everything you could possibly need is all in one location. If the stunning view of this property doesn’t sell you, the kindness and hospitality of the owner sure will! My daughters wedding day was perfect at Hidden Acres!

In February 2019 my daughter (bride) and I visited Hidden Acres and fell in love with the rustic chic country charm. Donnie was very helpful and we were impressed with the amenities so we booked the venue that day! I love how the venue is laid out. We had the wedding in the chapel with cocktail hour and then reception. There are so many options of how you can set up and have your dream wedding. My daughter had her bridal portrait photographed on the property! I love the rooms for the bridal party and groom. This was the perfect venue for their wedding!

I had my daughters wedding out at Hidden Acres last weekend. She has been dreaming of having her wedding here since she knew about this place. It was the perfect venue for a wedding because you can have everything out there, from rehearsal dinner to the ceremony to the reception. Also, there is plenty of room for the bridal party to stay all weekend, especially for the out of town bridal party! The shuttle bus was a very big hit! Not having to worry about guest drinking and driving. The driver picked up guest at the hotel and dropped them off at the venue. Then the guest were picked up near the end of the reception to go back to the hotel. The venue is absolutely gorgeous and very clean! Donny Gerald was always around to make sure everything was right. The girls got cold Friday night and he brought out a heater for them. He is wonderful to work with! We couldn’t have picked a better venue!

This venue is so beautiful with a lot of room/space for your wedding. Donny is super nice and can be contacted by phone, text, or email and will get back to you quickly. Was there to answer any questions we had through out the whole process.

We had our son’s rehearsal dinner at Hidden Acres. It was a beautiful venue. The rustic feel was perfect for our BBQ dinner. I loved having The Inn and the Bridal cottage available. Enough rooms for the entire bridal party to spend the weekend so we didn’t have to worry about any drinking and driving. I wish there was a similar venue where we lived for our daughter’s wedding.

As a wedding director, I have worked with many brides at many different venues - Hidden Acres stands out from the rest. Not only is it a beautiful, peaceful, magical venue, but Donny goes above and beyond to make sure your special day is flawless. He has thought of everything a bride and groom need for their entire weekend, and he is only a phone call or text away to help or answer questions. I thoroughly enjoy directing weddings at this venue and working with Donny. No matter the style, size or budget of your wedding, Hidden Acres is an excellent choice for any couple.

As a new bride, words cannot fully express my love for this venue! The location is absolutely breath taking and gorgeous! I got married on January 4th 2020 and would not have wanted my wedding any other place. I love that you have everything at one location! It was so easy to set-up, decorate and enjoy this wonderful time in my life! The staff and owner are the best people to work with. They truly care about you and desire you to have the best experience ever! I would recommend this to anyone looking for a venue!

After searching most of the Carolinas we found the perfect venue , Donny's place is breathtaking! It is every girls dream not only for her wedding but her sweet sixteen/ quinceanera as well ! Donny and his staff are hands on helpers and so friendly and making sure everything was perfect ! The photographer was overjoyed buy all of the natural props for her photo session, the pond , the church , the beautiful fountain, it was amazing ! Being able to stay over night in the cabin and have on site rooms for out of town family and guest made it so convenient! Weddings , sweet sixteen/quinceanera and any events are stressful but Donny and his staff are there to help every step of the way !

Hidden Acres is an incredible spot that offers a rustic feel with southern elegance. The Chapel is an amazingly beautiful space for a quaint, charming ceremony. With paved pathways, it's super easy to navigate -even if it rains. The ballroom offers plenty of space for a dance floor, plenty of seating, and room to move around and mingle. I was also blown away with how awesome Donny, the owner, is to work with. He literally makes you feel like you're his only priority and he wants your weekend to as fabulous as you do. Really, a 5 out of 5 is too low -Hidden Acres is a 10. A true gem in Marion County.

Hidden Acres is an ideal wedding venue for a beautiful outdoor wedding. The venue offers its own chapel on property, a gorgeous ballroom, and a pavilion designed with easy access for the caterers. The chapel itself has intricately designed stained glass windows. There are also great photo opportunities for couples overlooking the pond, in front of the old general store, and overlooking the expanse of the field. Every guest at the wedding I attended seemed to be having a great time and dancing the night away. The photos all turned out amazing. I was also very impressed with Donny’s hospitality and professionalism in helping the happy couple book the venue. They went on to tell all of their guests just how much they appreciated him! I will definitely plan to have my own wedding there in the future.

I honestly can’t say enough good things about this venue! Donny has thought of absolutely everything to make your wedding day perfect.

I cannot say enough good things about Hidden Acres. It was the perfect choice for our daughters wedding. The venue is beautiful, the owner is dream to work with and the little details make it really special. I would highly recommend!

Hidden Acres is the most beautiful venue I’ve ever seen! The owner, Donny, is awesome to work with! He will help any way he can! If you have a question or if you want to visit the venue he is always available! My son and his wife had their dream wedding here! It is absolutely breathtaking! If you want to have a fairy tale wedding this is the place!

I had no idea how to plan a wedding. I don’t think anyone realizes the actual detail that goes into it. Donny the owner of Hidden Acres made my life during the year of wedding planning so easy. I found every single vendor for my wedding through Donny (Caterer,Hotels for guests, DJ). I found my wedding planner though Donny. This isn’t just a gorgeous venue it’s a absolute dream come true when it comes to a wedding. I will never forget my memorable day their. Every facility that Donny Promised us was readily available when he said it would be. He had no problems with me and my husband visiting the venue several times to get ideas for decorating. Every area of the facility is spotlessly clean and he is always continuing to do updates and new landscaping and he is never settling he is always trying to make the Venue better. I would 100% suggest this venue. I met Donny at a wedding convention that is held annually in Myrtle Beach. I put my deposit down with him that day before even seeing the venue in person. He is someone you can trust 100% and he has a amazing team to follow!

This past weekend my family, friends, and I had the time of our lives! Hidden Acres was able to accommodate all of our needs! At any point of any day they were readily a available to answer any of our questions and help us find anything we needed. I would highly recommend this venue! It is such a gorgeous setting and so secluded. Book your special day at Hidden Acres!

Best venue around!!! Donny is great to work with! When we came to look at the venue we fell in love with it! I couldn’t have imagined picking any other venue for our big day! Our original wedding date had to be postponed due to Hurricane Matthew, and Donny made sure we got the next open date for our ceremony! If your looking for a venue look no more, Hidden Acres is the best one out there!

The BEST venue by far! There was not a single thing to complain about on my big day. The venue has so much to offer and they keep adding more. The owner made it so easy to contact him and accommodated us any way he could! If you’re looking for a wedding venue, this is it!

This is hands down the best venue!! Donny is simply amazing and so great to work with. We had some last minutes changes to our guests sleeping situation and Donny was there to save the day without one complaint! It’s so laid back and relaxed. My fiancé and I were looking for a venue that encompasses who we are and Hidden Acres was it! Our wedding was absolutely beautiful and perfect because of this hidden paradise. There is enough room for everyone! Once you are there you never have to leave! It’s so convenient! The wildlife and Doggie house in front of the Inn is a bonus for us! Our puppies had a safe place to stay! Thanks again Donny! My Husband and I are so pleased!

I have provided DJ Services for wedding venues all over North Carolina & South Carolina over the years. Hidden Acres is my favorite. This venue is very accommodating for brides and their wedding parties. It is setup nicely for scenic wedding pictures I have never heard one complaint from any guests or other vendors here. It is setup nicely. I have provided DJ Services for at least 25 weddings at this venue over the years. I highly recommend Hidden Acres for your wedding.

Absolute best venue, HANDS DOWN. If you want a venue that is quiet, has everything you need (including built-in rain plan) on the property & the assurance random people won't be wondering around then book Hidden Acres. Donny has literally thought of everything when it comes to this venue. You get the property for 4 whole days. That meant we had 2 days to set up, we had a place for a super relaxed rehearsal dinner, a beautiful set up for our wedding day, and a day to break down without someone breathing down our necks to get out. Donny was very helpful through out the whole process. Answering texts multiple times with random questions, he even came to the venue the day we got there to introduce himself in person to us and tell us if we needed anything to let him know. Thanks so much for making our special day(s), memorable. We are forever grateful.

Great venue! Has everything you need and makes the perfect scenery for pictures! Highly recommend.

Me and my now husband had the most BEAUTIFUL wedding because of this venue! Its absolutely amazing how much it offers. We had enough room for my wedding party to stay as well as family members. And we had our own salon to prepare in and not to mention the breathtaking Honeymoon suite! This place is like a dream! I can not Thank Donny enough for letting us celebrate our special day on his venue!❤ I would recommend this place 100%!😁

Breathtaking venue with picturesque landscaping. All amenities on site from honeymoon suite, bridal and groom quarters, rustic chapel, beautiful ballroom, beauty shop, and hotel rooms on site. Golf cart on site to get around the property. Donny was excellent to work with and checked on us the entire weekend to make sure that everything was going well. Very pleasurable experience and beautiful memories to last a lifetime.

I am a wedding coordinator from Orlando, FL, who has just moved to Whitmire, SC. I have been looking at venues for a while now. When it was my turn to get married (January 19th, 2019) I looked at a lot of venues in Florida, North Carolina, and South Carolina, but ultimately there was only one place that would work for us, Hidden Acres! Get ready, because if you haven't already picked this place for your wedding venue, I am about to sell you on putting down a deposit today. (No, I don't work there, and No, I am not a preferred vendor, and Yes, my wedding was my first experience with Hidden Acres) One of my favorite parts of this venue is that it is ready to go, you could walk on the property any day and have a wedding. No decorations needed. However, I know some brides have a theme in mind. This venue is not too rustic to turn into any theme! Promise, I had to merge a simple rustic country (my husband) and glam (me) together, and I loved the way it turned out! So let's start with the owner, Mr. Donny! This man takes good care of his property and takes great pride in first impressions. He is accommodating, quick to respond, and never in the way! I did not spend much time with him, but he was available via email, FB, text, or phone all the time. He also sends adorable messages checking in on you! His preferred vendor list did not fail me! I used flowers and lodging from the list. He also lets you control the temperatures in the buildings during the weekend. You already know this by the beautiful pictures you have probably seen. Still, the property is appealing to any eye and is well maintained by housekeeper, lawn, and maintenance crews, which are all friendly. Example: We saw a screw popping up and was afraid someone might trip, we asked if they could screw it back in, and within minutes, they took care of it. (They were only there tending to the lawn on Thursday, other than that no one bothers you) The chapel is perfect! It was the main reason I selected this venue. You can dress it up with candles (YES, real candles) and flowers (YES, real flowers), or it is perfect enough to leave as is. The chapel comes with two mics. One handheld and one lapel mic with a sound system that is good enough for 200 people! The sound equipment has the capability to hook up to the computer, iPhone, or play a classic CD. One of my band members ran the music for the ceremony, and it sounded good to the people in pews and from what our videographer captured. There are also four padded detailed wood chairs that can easily be used for grandparents in the front row or two wheelchairs on both sides will fit. I am sure you already know it is handicap accessible. The hair and makeup salon on the property place was fun! I had four bridesmaids, and my mom get ready with me on the day of the wedding! (Less woman= Less craziness) We all sat in the salon while getting our hair and makeup done, and everyone had a place to sit. Our hair and makeup team had never been out there, and they loved it! Good lighting is created by the large window right next to the station. The groom's area was great, and I did not let them get on the property too early because this particular group of men can get wild! There was enough room for 8 to get dressed comfortably. Check the Hidden Acres FB page for the rest of my review.

Hidden Acres is the BEST wedding venue! We were engaged exactly two years before our wedding day, and we booked it within a month of being engaged! We knew Hidden Acres was an awesome deal, as you get the venue for the whole weekend and it is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! You get a rehersal and reception venue all in one, a bridal cabin for all of the ladies, a breathtaking chapel, and a whole weekend to celebrate your new life together! We also rented out the cabins on site for close family and the groomsmen rented an offsite cabin close by for the weekend. We had the best experience here as our wedding weekend was a dream! We would reccomend Hidden Acres to anyone! Thank you so much, Donny!

Beautiful venue

I wish I could give Hidden Acres 10 stars. Everything about the venue from our first meeting with the owner to our last communication with him was outstanding! The location is beautiful. It has a rustic elegance that is unmatched. The owner has considered every detail and is consistently making improvements. The property is completely inclusive with chapel, a beautiful courtyard, pond, waterfall, outdoor space for outdoor weddings, incredible reception hall, bride’s cottage, Salon, and groom’s cave. Our rental gave us the entire property for the weekend and we stayed on property at a charming inn for family/friends. If you’re considering this location, I can say that we could not have been happier.

The most gorgeous wedding venue EVER. I couldn't have dreamed of a more perfect place.
