Indoor, Outdoor, Both - You Decide
Margaret Mitchell House is listed on the National Register of Historic Sites and features the apartment where Mitchell wrote the famous novel Gone With the Wind. Now operated by The Atlanta History Center, it boasts both indoor and outdoor settings, designed to flow seamlessly together for weddings and special events. The house itself is a gorgeous three-story building in the Tudor Revival style, and on the top floor, you'll find comfy suites where you can prep with your wedding party. Tie the knot in the sunshine on the Upper Lawn, with its wooden pergola and lush greenery, or on the Lower Lawn, ideal for more intimate celebrations. After the ceremony, guests can spread out for chats and cocktails, while you pose for photos with your beloved. Alternatively, an indoor cocktail hour can be held in the charming Peachtree Parlors. For an additional fee, the venue is happy to open Margaret Mitchell's apartment and connected exhibit for loved ones to check out, and they'll have easy access via the Lower Lawn. For your wedding reception, you can make use of the Trellis Room. Located in a storied building on Peachtree Street, this space provides an airy feel with its floor-to-ceiling windows, exposed ceiling beams, and open floor plan.

Our wedding day at Margaret Mitchell House was nothing short of amazing! The venue just re-opened in summer of 2025 so the spaces were basically brand new when our wedding rolled a...
round in October. The updates that were made to the space really highlighted the historic charm of the venue and made it the perfect backdrop for our vision. We got very lucky and had amazing weather so our guests loved the indoor/outdoor cocktail hour we hosted. The entire team at Margaret Mitchell were AMAZING! Plus, we were right in the heart of Midtown so it was great for our out of town guests. Could not recommend this venue more!

Our wedding was incredible. The venue's location in the heart of Midtown allowed our out-of-town family to stay in a hotel right across the street from the venue, the staff helped ...
ensure our wedding day passed by without worry, and many of our guests commented on how beautiful the ceremony on the lawn and the reception in the ballroom was.
