Olde Dobbin Station

wrong wedding. But my family quickly helped the two staff there to fix the problem. We also love that they have made some renovations to the property! The bathrooms are brand new, however they were finishing them the day of set up so the day of the wedding it smelled like chemicals all throughout. This was a bummer for us, but won’t be an issue for future events I’m sure.

e chapel was perfect for our ceremony. The bathrooms are nice and have lots of stalls. ODS management is really experienced and helpful in creating a floor plan that optimizes the space for whatever your guest count is. Overall, EXCELLENT. We are truly so glad we got married here!! A couple notes for engaged couples to consider... The bridal suite is tiny. I had 5 bridesmaids and we would definitely not have been able to get ready in the bridal suite. Have your hair and makeup done at a nearby airbnb or hotel. There is simply not enough square footage, counter space, outlets or mirrors in the bridal suite for prep. But, it is a great place to keep all your stuff, do outfit changes and touch ups during the wedding events. It locks and you get the code on your wedding day so you know all your stuff is secure (same for the grooms suite). We had a weird issue with the mechanical bull we rented for the wedding. Everything was sorted out in advance with ODS, our wedding coordinator, and the mechanical bull rental. The morning of the wedding, the venue management changed up how we could power the bull. I honestly don't really know the situation (shoutout to Brandi at Nxt Lvl Events for handling everything!!) but it was weird that we had emails from the venue stating how we would power the bull there and then on the wedding day my family had to rent a generator. This venue is right next a railway crossing. There is a chance a train horn goes off (very loudly) during your ceremony. My husband and I weren't worried about it and just let our officiant know to pause if that happened. But, you can ask what times the train is *most likely* to go by and try to plan your ceremony around it. Lastly, ODS has open houses where you can find great vendors!! ODS is in a fantastic network of wedding professionals. Overall, we LOVED Olde Dobbin Station and highly recommend it. Our vendors also really liked working with the ODS space and management which I think speaks volumes. Booking Olde Dobbin Station and booking Nxt Lvl Events were the best things we did for our wedding.

g. Add to it, Brittany and Carey who make your day such a perfect finish to a long list of plan events, everything was as we ordered. The bar staff was great the venue staff was great I cannot say enough positive things about this place. If you book here it might be a little bit more expensive but it’s worth the extra one or $2000 in the end of it all , we had originally booked another place who decided they didn’t want to have a wedding so when I found this place, I was so pleased to find that they were kind generous and thoughtful. Thank you Brittany and Carrie for making our day super special.

a more enchanting place to tie the knot. Brittany, the manager, was an absolute gem – attentive to our every need and ensuring that every detail was executed flawlessly. The staff, without a doubt, was the best – professional, friendly, and committed to making our day truly memorable. If you're searching for the ideal venue where dreams come true, look no further. Olde Dobbin Station is the epitome of perfection, and we are forever grateful for the enchanting experience they provided on our wedding day!

d again and again through our interactions with the various staff. On our wedding day, we had a little snaffoo where the A/C stopped working in the bridal suite in the midst of the women getting ready. Within 20 minutes of notifying Shelly, she was on the property and helping to get it handled! We quickly moved to the Grooms suite so that we didn't get behind and were able to move back into the Bridal Suite within an hour. It was really quite seamless. They made everything we asked for a reality. It was literally perfect and we wish we could do it all over again. The Dobbin is a FANTASTIC venue with absolutely amazing staff and you won't be disappointed if you choose them! Thank you all for everything you did to make our day as perfect as could be. We couldn't have asked for a better place to get married.

ny and the venue staff did a great job of answering any questions we had along the way. I would 100% recommend celebrating your special day here.

aracter it has! Olde Dobbin’s staff was very helpful and easy to work with before and the day of the wedding. Brittany was always very responsive and helpful with all of our questions. You can truly tell how much the staff cares for the venue. We are so pleased with the choice we made when we picked Olde Dobbin for our wedding venue. We would highly recommend!

we both LOVED everything about this venue. It’s so naturally beautiful that you don’t have to decorate much with flowers, candles, etc. to make the venue fit your wedding style/vibe. I mainly corresponded with Brittany, the general manager, while planning my wedding. She was helpful & responded to about 90% of my emails - I did have to send up follow-up emails at times, but this place has at least 1-2 weddings every weekend. She is dealing with & responding to tons of brides, so I try to show her grace there. Brittany also helped me find a few affordable vendors as you have to bring a big team of vendors together to execute your day. ODS provides the venue, tables, and chairs. As far as setup (outside of the ceremony chairs), you have to hire another vendor(s) to assist with this. However, the managers have lots of good recommendations on which vendors can help with what. Additionally, ODS offers at least 2 open houses per year where they have a variety of different wedding vendors available at the venue to talk with couples; this greatly helped us as we were deciding which vendors to hire for our wedding. So many of our wedding guests kept telling my husband and I how beautiful the venue was and how it fit our personalities very well. We were trying to go for a rustic style wedding, & I believe we were successful with that by choosing this venue! A couple words of caution - the bridal suite is small, so I recommend having a smaller bridal party because even with only 4 bridesmaids, our flower girl, my mom, and me, we had to do some shuffling of people and items in the suite while getting ready. Also, take the alcohol recommendations from the managers with a grain of salt. We had about 150 - 160 adults at our wedding. We had 2 kegs of beer & 36 bottles of wine. The winery I worked with to supply the wine recommended 42 - 45 bottles of wine while ODS staff recommended 30. With cocktail hour beginning at 3:30 PM, we were out of the wine we ordered by 6/6:30 PM, and the bar didn’t close until 8:30 PM. I should have went with the winery’s recommendation. With all that said, beautiful venue, helpful staff, and memories made that will last forever!

al. Brittany was awesome to work with. Any request or question we had was answered with a thorough, professional response. The entire staff was personable to all our guests and did everything in their control to have our day go seamlessly!

well maintained. The ivy and historic features really came across beautiful in peron and in our photos.

uld hold the ceremony, and how our reception could be laid out. Not to mention, Carrie and Brittany were amazing. Any time I had a question or a concern, they got back to me the same day (most of the time, almost immediately) and were always able to provide me with a thorough and detailed response. They were so kind and helpful all along the way, and my husband and I had to reschedule our wedding twice. They made the process of planning a wedding three times so much less stressful than it would have been otherwise. ODS, Carrie & Brittany are THE BEST!

obbin Station enough to anyone, it's simple beauty, dreamy layout, and the quaint little chapel are just 3 of the reasons why I am in love with this place. My wedding couldn't have been more perfect and I know a lot of that has to do with location. All of my guests raved about how pretty our wedding was, the ceremony site (chapel) and reception site (McCoy Station). I could go on and on, but you need to see this venue for your self to truly fall in love. Once you set your eyes on it, it's kind of impossible not to love it. Thank y'all so much again for hosting my dream wedding!

ng the manager on duty. We were expecting someone to introduce themselves or be there but no one did (at least to me or my husband). Other than that, everything was clean and thing Covid safe procedures were in place. We definitely recommend checking it out!

a threatened the safety of a venue I had booked back in January. I called around desperately trying to find a backup plan, and this venue was available. Even though we were still on the hook for paying for our original venue if the hurricane did not damage it, Olde Dobbin Station jumped to help me begin planning our “Plan B” just in case. I mean seriously, 96 hours before I was supposed to walk down the aisle, they were doing everything they could to take the stress off of me. Although we will not be having our wedding at ODS in the end, I had peace of mind and felt so supported!!! Exceptional customer service, good people, AND beautiful venue!

e staff at Old Dobbin were amazing. When speaking to Carrie the owner or Brittany the manager, I felt as though I was speaking to one of my friends. They were always prompt in answering my many, many questions, and gave advise when asked. They didn’t seem to be bothered by this nervous mamma. If you are looking for a venue that is not only stunning, but your guest will rave about, affordable, and has a great staff of years and years of experience, then Olde Dobbin Station is for you.

to work with, made the day of and the days leading up to the wedding a breeze and everyone at our wedding enjoyed the evening spent there. I will always be overjoyed we chose ODS!

th inside each of the buildings and also outside. We actually didn’t have too much decor because of how beautiful this place already is. Which saves time getting it ready AND money👍🏼 I had an outdoor wedding at the altar and an indoor reception in their big building. First of all, I worked with Brittany throughout my whole engagement. My engagement was about a year and 3 months so you can imagine how many questions you can think of in that time. I thought of them all and asked Brittany every single one of them. And without hesitation, Brittany was quick to respond and always gave a positive answer. If it was a no, she gave alternate options or different ways of doing it, which sometimes turned out better than the original plan! She kept in contact and was always willing to do whatever was needed in order to make the day run smoother for me. I never met Carrie, the other girl that runs ODS but I’ve heard nothing but good things. There was a time that I was having pretty big medical issues and we weren’t sure if we would/could continue with our wedding day, even though we had already booked ODS. I messaged Brittany and updated her on what was going on. Before she even mentioned our booking, she was quick to ask how I was doing and offer her help and support in any way possible. When we talked about moving our wedding date, she told us to not even worry about it, that they would reserve whatever day we decided to do and they would keep our date saved until we decided to change it. And when I told them my health was in the clear and we were good to go with our original date, her and Carrie cried happy tears with us!! I could go on and on about this venue and the people that keep it running, but I really want to say that I would highly consider looking into them more and booking them for your big day. You will NOT be disappointed. My wedding day was the best day ever and majority of the credit I give to the place where we made those memories. We will forever love Olde Dobbin Station!

Modern. Industrial. Brittany is so helpful and sweet. Also super easy to make payments online.

ing our kegs before the ceremony even began (in the info sheet filled out they weren’t suppose to start until 5..they started at 4). The bartenders they provided also served an underaged drinker that could not handle his alcohol which then became a small scene.

r venue, Carrie(owner) and Brittany(manager) were unlike any other too. From the time I booked to the day of my wedding I felt welcome, important, and that they had everything taken care of! My guest count was 180 - and there was PLENTY of space. For the quality of the venue, owners/managers, the size of the space, the cost is priceless (which it is actually VERY affordable)! I can't thank Olde Dobbin Station and their team enough for such an easy and FUN experience. My wedding day was everything I could have imagined it to be and it all came to life because of ODS!

lity she even wanted to look at because they could hold more than 200 guests and she loved the photos on the website. Well, I have to tell you, the pictures do not even do the place justice. Her wedding was this past weekend and the beauty of the venue far surpassed our expectations. Not only is the place beautiful, but the acoustics in the building they use as the chapel are phenomenal! Everyone ohh and ahhed over the place! The reception hall is somewhat divided by three arches, so the dinner was served on one side of the room and the dance floor took up the other. Carrie and Brittany were so easy to work with and the staff on duty the night of our wedding was helpful and efficient. Look no further for the perfect venue to hold your next event...Olde Dobbin Station is the place!

for our wedding day. As a former wedding planner, I was absolutely blown away by Brittany and the entire ODS team on their professionalism, punctuality, helpfulness, and overall incredible help leading up to and on our wedding day. Brittany was extremely attentive and accommodating, and her genuine spirit made planning our day so very easy. The feedback we received from vendors and guests alike was incredibly positive, and we are so grateful we chose ODS for our special day. I would not change one single thing, and I highly recommend this venue!

t! I would 10/10 rate Olde Dobbin the best!!!

othly for us & our guests. We received SO many compliments on our choice for the venue and I couldn't agree more. I would recommend this venue a million times again! Thank you so much, Olde Dobbin!

s have so much character that they don’t require a ton of décor inside. The owner, Carrie, is so down to earth and easy to work with! She does have a lot of rules as to what you can and can’t do with decor, but that is what keeps the venue in such clean, pristine shape. You simply aren’t going to find another venue with the historic, industrial charm, and sheer space that Olde Dobbin has!

lutely perfect from the chapel to the reception hall. They have a bridal cotttage that is darling and a grooms quarters too! Carrie and Brittany will always be there no matter how many times you need to call and they will always calm your worries. Olde Dobbin Station is so gorgeous and we are lucky we were able to get it reserved for our date. Thanks again Carrie and Brittany for a beautiful wedding !!

iendliness of everyone there and the beautiful and historically rich site. Throughout the remainder of the planning, ODS made the payment schedule and bar set up incredibly easy. On our wedding day Brittany, the security, staff, and bartenders were beyond helpful and sweet. In one particular instance, our wedding and grooms cakes were delivered around the time the ceremony was held at an offsite location, and the grooms cake come to find out did not fit onto the cake table we had designated it for. My now husband and I had no idea of this mishap, because by the time we walked into the venue the grooms cake had been moved to a new, decorated table all thanks to the absolutely wonderful people at ODS. They also readily jumped in to help assist with our sparkler exit allowing for our family and wedding party to enjoy the event without having to worry about distributing, lighting, and collecting the sparklers. We are so happy we chose ODS for our reception venue - they are truly a gem and they have our every recommendation!

Dobbins let us move our date without batting an eyelash. We are so grateful to them for everything they did that went above and beyond. There were so many beautiful places to take pictures and we would HIGHLY recommend getting married here.

it made decorating so easy. I liked that I was able to pick all the vendors I wanted rather than doing a package deal. I highly recommend the venue our pictures turned out so beautiful.

ant to me to get all my questions answered immediately. Besides their responsiveness, they are very friendly and accommodating. Planning the wedding was overwhelming but I never worried about anything with ODS. Plus, their calendar is up-to-date; you can easily pay them online; they have very flexible bar options which can fit all different needs and guest sizes. Brittany, the venue manager, was the main person who helped us for the whole process. She emailed clear instructions and rules for us to read and follow. To me, I really like that because it made our communication and planning more efficient. On the wedding day, everything was so smooth and perfect. The whole wedding turned out very pretty and all of our friends and families said it was definitely worth the driving.

t is so beautiful on its own! The everyone there is great to work with and so kind! They get back to you really quickly and are great! Highly recommend!

nue cancel on me, and they MATCHED the price of my other venue without me even having to ask! From the beginning, the owners were extremely helpful and the manager, Brittany, was so knowledgable. I liked her so much I ended up hiring her as my coordinator!

e had over the past year was nothing short of amazing. She gave us such good advice on vendors, and timelines. You could not ask for nicer people to work with!

at other vendors for the ceremony and reception. The venue was even more perfect in person!! I had a vision of "rustic elegance" and I Olde Dobbin made that a reality. Their staff are very responsive and helpful, as well!

g was beautiful there and we highly recommend it.

O responsive and helpful throughout the entire year that I planned my wedding. They go all out to make sure you have a special, stress free day. The only downside I can think of is that there is no bathroom within the bridal suite.

nd GM Brittany, did nothing short of jump through hoops to ensure every detail of our wedding day went off without a hitch. By the time we reached our big day, Carrie and Brittany were like family. The chapel, suites, grounds, and reception hall were stunning. They made our day feel effortless. Olde Dobbin Station will forever be a very special place to my husband and I. Our photos are absolutely breathtaking, to boot.

operty. They are a blank canvas and amazing to host.

hout my whole planning process. They were incredibly accommodating. We were even able to bring in some our decor the day before the wedding. I could not recommend this venue more!

answer any texts or emails. Their payment plans are so easy and affordable, but your wedding will feel like a million dollars because of how well they maintain the beautiful property! Thank you so much for making our dream wedding a reality!
