My wedding was on 8/31/24. I knew I wanted to get married in a venue with plenty of character and charm. The minute I found Roswell Historic Hall, I knew I needed to tour the venue. My husband and I met Mahi at the venue, and fell in love with the venue and location. We decided right then and there, the Roswell Historic Hall was our wedding venue. Meeting Mahi also confirmed our choice. Mahi is warm, very well organized and has great attention to detail. She’s very responsive, and her years of experience in the wedding/events industry definitely came in handy!
Mahi specifically helped coordinate and source our wedding decor, flowers (including my bridal bouquet, bridesmaids bouquet, groomsman boutonniers and flowers for our flower girl), cocktail hour menu, the photographer, videographer, a 360 video booth, the reception desserts and our wedding cake. She provided several recommendations and we ended up using one of her bartenders. She also used a friendly serving staff, that helped her behind the scenes, ensuring all food was set up timely, venue remained clean, and service ran impeccably. We provided our own food for the reception - but Mahi ensured that the food was set up timely and remained replenished.
Mahi also served as a coordinator the day of. Making sure the schedule ran on time and smoothly. At one point during the reception, I experienced a slight wardrobe issue and Mahi stepped in and helped fixed my gown bustle!
We highly recommend having your wedding or event at the Roswell Historic Hall. Most importantly, I recommend working with Mahi. Mahi is extremely professional, experienced and a gem! As a bride, she’ll make your life easier!

My husband and I chose Roswell Historic Hall for our wedding. What I really loved was the “package” Mahi offered which pretty much covered nearly everything we needed for the reception and made wedding planning easy. The venue is beautiful and it was a good amount of space for 129 guests. We had a Jewish wedding and Mahi and her florist created the most stunning chuppah covered in flowers. The decor was beautiful and romantic.
Was everything perfect? Of course not. But I think this venue offered an incredible value.
I know all our family and friends had a wonderful time. They came up to me saying as much and said it was a very romantic setting. Other highlights included the 360 Photo Booth, good music & cake was delicious. Bartenders did a great job. Mahi also added fog and sparklers for our first dance which really gave it that “wow” factor.
Area for improvement- unfortunately the food was not as good as the food we had at the tasting. We had asked for a vegetable side dish and it seemed to us like the caterer had dropped the ball & last minute picked up frozen mixed vegetables which was weird. A few other professionalism issues (the DJ chewed out my MOH right in front of me…he did apologize later.)
Overall, I highly recommend.

My wife and I were engaged in May of 2022 and decided that we wanted a short engagement and to be married in January 2023. A bit quick to plan an entire wedding, especially with our busy schedules. We found Roswell Historic Hall while looking for spacious indoor venues and decided to take a visit. From the outside, the venue looks like a quaint little white building, but inside is this beautifully elegant space that feels comfortable. The primary reason we chose Roswell Historic Hall aside from the gorgeous interior was due to the venue owner, Mahi.
When we first met Mahi, we were taken by her professionalism, friendliness, and her candor with us; she was very attentive to what we wanted, and when we told her that we wanted to do as little of the planning ourselves, she took charge of everything.
We are not the kind of people who need to approve every single detail, and we trusted Mahi to deliver us an evening we would never forget and boy did she deliver. From the food to the decorations to the DJ, she took our preferences and turned them into the most beautiful wedding we could ask for.
If anyone is ever looking for an event venue where the owner will listen to what you want and ensure that you don't worry about a single thing, Mahi and the Roswell Historic Hall should definitely be on your radar.

My now husband and I had our wedding here last weekend and we are still speechless and in awe of how beautifully everything went. In truth, when we discovered this venue, we were so confused and exhausted from trying to figure out all the details of wedding planning and juggling the multitude of vendors. This venue is a one-stop-shop and at first sounded too good to be true. The venue-owner, Miss Mahi, truly handles every last detail. She has contracts with the most exquisite vendors in the city and somehow has the ability to bring any wedding vision to life. She is personable, artistic and a truly competent and expert manager. We had a unique wedding in that we wanted to bring elements from both of our cultures and had a fusion type menu and she seamlessly made this happen. As a bride, I especially appreciated her firm approach and leadership when it came to the schedule, guests (and overbearing parents). She literally ran to my aid multiple times throughout the evening and handled unexpected circumstances with such grace so we wouldn’t have to stress. We felt good in that we were supporting a woman-owned business who employs so many expert local women from photographers to decorator to photo booth expert and baker. Thank you, Mahi joon for saving the day and being such a pleasure to work with! We could not have asked for a better wedding and it’s all thanks to you.

Roswell Historic Hall was amazing. The venue has a lot of character so no décor was needed to be brought in. Their team had all the tables and chairs set up the night before and allowed us to drop off alcohol and other items the night before since there wasn't an event that night

To all the brides out there, if you want to have a smooth wedding night and if you want everything to go as you wish and as you want, you need to go to Roswell Historic Hall and work with Mahi. The venue is absolutely beautiful, great location, and on top of that the way Mahi designs the venue for your special night, is just another level. Mahi is also a great and patient person to work with and plan your wedding with. She is extremely supportive, has lots of options for you, helps you decide, and at the end makes everything happen the way you want it. I was a picky bride (I confess it) and our wedding was a big wedding, but literally everything, absolutely everything, went the way I wanted that night (including all the details that I had asked her). I really recommend Roswell Historic Hall and Mahi if you want your dreams come true for your wedding night.

This is a beautiful venue. We had our daughter’s 3rd birthday here.Mahi did an amazing job bringing my Vision to life. She is so delightful to work with. She made sure to do everything as i wanted. Decor, food , cake & service everything was perfect. We are extremely happy that we decided to do our little girl’s birthday at this venue. This venue is extremely beautiful without any decor even & decorations added cherry on cake. We can’t wait to do more of our life events at this place. I would recommend roswell cottage hall & Mahi to all my friends & family to celebrate their events.

We held our son and his bride’s rehearsal dinner at this beautiful Roswell Historic Cottage. I had a vision for what I wanted everything to look like - the set up, the flowers, table decor, the food - and Mahi read my mind. All of it was perfect. To top it all off Mahi brought in a very talented saxophonist/violinist. Courtland was awesome! His music was just the right touch for the evening. He played every song from the bride and groom’s playlist. The wedding was held the next day and words cannot describe how beautiful everything was - took my breath away. Tons of guest compliments on the venue and the decor. Every detail was perfect. Never had to worry during the event as Mahi took care of everything before you could even think about it. This venue was perfect. With 2 events in the same place, everything was special and different enough that you didn’t realize it. A week later and we are still talking about the wedding wedding and we are still in awe! Mahi, thank you for everything!

My daughter held her wedding at the Roswell Historic Cottage last weekend 6/25/22. It is a beautiful venue and it was everything we dreamed it would be and more. Mahi did a great job coordinating everything including flowers, cake, catering, dj. The tables, flowers and decor were absolutely beautiful. The food and cake were delicious. We also held our rehearsal dinner there the night before and it was also amazing. It allowed us to have our rehearsal the evening before and enjoy a beautiful dinner. I can't say enough about Mahi and the venue and since she does everything for you there isn't as much stress. Highly recommend!

By writing this review, I wanted to thank the manager and owners of Rosewell historic cottage for organizing such a beautiful, amazing, memorable, and dreamy wedding for us. I really appreciate your effort and good job in creating a wonderful and perfect wedding event for us.
Everything from the delicious food, beautiful designed appetizers, and delicious pastry to the eye-catching and wonderful flower decorations, new gold tables and the bride and groom stage design were perfect.
I love purple theme and you decorated everything in a beautiful purple tone combination which were more than I expected.
All guests loved the way you organized our wedding and I have received so many compliments for the beautiful party you organized for us.
Thank you so much! For sure, I recommend Roswell Historic Cottage and its manager Mahi to every couple who wants to celebrate their wedding party in a wonderful manner.

We just had our wedding this last weekend here, and we loved every aspect of it! Mahi is so helpful with really any request, and she will work with you to make your wedding all that you hoped it will be. It is a beautiful two story venue with high ceilings, a rustic get ready room, and a beautiful bar area located under the stairs. The day of the wedding, Mahi and all of her staff were all so friendly and helpful. We actually ran out of tequila and they so kindly went and got some for us. My wedding day went by so so so smoothly I truly couldn't have asked for more. Mahi offers everything. I did however bring some outside vendors, and she was so helpful and kind to them as well. I can't recommend this place enough. Booking this venue was the best decision I could have ever made for my wedding.

I had my wedding at Roswell Historic Cottage and I don’t think I could have had a better experience. Mahi was wonderful to work with and made planning almost stress-free. I didn’t have a lot of opinions about decor and flowers, so I decided to trust her expertise and she really came through for me. The venue was absolutely beautiful, the food was great and everyone had a an amazing time. If I had to do it all over, I would choose Roswell Historic Cottage again and again. Thank you, Mahi!

The owner of this venue is very unprofessional. Very pleasant to deal with until it comes down to money. Frequent upcharges that come out of no where, hassle getting back deposit. Never fully getting what you paid for and then the unprofessionalism comes in when it is brought up. Just watch every dime an listen to every word and get everything in writing.

BOOK THE BEST NIGHT OF YOUR LIFE AT ROSWELL HISTORIC COTTAGE (RHC) like we did! As a city girl, I knew I wanted to get married in Atlanta but searching for venues was daunting. From the first conversation I had with Amir, he not only gave me the confidence I needed to go through with RHC but the space to go search for other venues too. Anywhere I went, I could not get this beautiful venue out of my head- its high ceilings, brick walls, and perfect location in Downtown Roswell was exactly what I had envisioned for my wedding day, and more. I refer this venue to all my family and friends. Thank you so much Amir and your team of vendors for making my wedding dreams come true!

I COULDN'T HAVE CHOSEN A MORE PERFECT VENUE!
Amir was a wonderful coordinator. There were a few times I got so nervous/anxious because I was experiencing fear of the unknown and when he told, "I got it"....HE GOT IT! Everything was so beautifully executed at my wedding. I had both the ceremony and reception at RHC. I had the ceremony on the 1st floor, cocktail hour on the 2nd floor and the reception on the first floor. All the decorations, centerpieces, linens, etc were so perfect. Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING was exactly how I envisioned.
Another cool part was since the venue is on Canton Street, I chose to walk around with my bridal party and photographer and we were celebrated by all the people along Canton Street. It was so nice that random people took part in my special day.
A big plus with choosing RHC was the vendor list. No, not a preferred vendor list...it's a list of all the people the venue uses so it's a one stop shop (for lack of a better word/phrase). I didn't have to look up additional vendors and keep track of it. Amir was in charge of the vendors and they were there, on time, if not early.
DJ Bluue - was great! So easy to work with, very responsive and showed up early. I preferred he didn't take requests from guests and he listened very well to my request. I'd highly recommend him.
MomoLuxe (photographer) - did a great job with the photographs I wanted to capture. She was so excited for my big day and that showed and felt very nice. I cannot wait to see the final photos, because the few I previewed from her camera were magical!
Hamilton Flowers - did the centerpieces and Irina did a perfect job with capturing the feel/vibe. I loved the floating candles and the gold vases, along with the baby's breath flowers. Beautiful.
Bebe's Catering - NAILED IT!!! I'm not a huge meat eater, but I wanted seconds (and even thirds). We splurged for the beef medallions (so glad we did). They were cooked perfectly. Absolutely delicious. We also chose the Lemon Picata Chicken - and that was THE best chicken I've ever had. My family agreed, too. The sides were delicious and seasoned very well, without being too salty. I'm still craving the food.
I had an absolutely magical, romantic, fairy-tale wedding and it was because of everyone involved. I highly recommend RHC, Amir, and all his vendors! Well done and I will forever have this amazing memory.

I got married 10.13.2018 here and we had an amazing wedding! My family and friends loved the place. The owner Amir is amazing, he actually took the time to get to know us. He was definitely a God send! The last few weeks I was stressing out and he answered every question we had. He managed to get us the wine color table clothes and he added a gold runner on the tables that made everything flow. He went over and beyond to make our day.
We also used the catering company there and the food was amazing. Our guests loved the Mexican street tacos we had. They tasted very authentic, the chef definitely nailed it!
Thanks Amir for everything

I had the most incredible experience having my wedding at Roswell Historic Cottage. Mahi and Amir were attentive, easy to get in touch with and friendly. As far as the venue goes, it was my picture-perfect version of a wedding venue. It was affordable and the exposed brick is the best. We had both the ceremony and the reception in the same place and if turned out awesome. I highly recommend having your wedding here.

We had our wedding here on 8/26/2017 and it was just perfect. I was a bit concerned because I have to admit that the communication before the event was not great but at the day off Mahi and her team were just amazing. The venue is beautiful, they help with decorations and they have a bridal suite and a little kitchen. We had the ceremony and the reception there and partied until midnight :)

They were all excellent, easy to work with, and provided A+ service. Thank you to Mahi and her venue for the incredible night! -Mrs. D

The best day of my life was celebrated at Roswell Historic Cottage. Mahi, who runs and owns the facility, was my angel on earth that day. From meeting my every need, to giving me her tasteful ideas in order to make this elegant space all the more shik, the vision I had dreamed about all my life was brought to fruition with her help. I highly recommend this venue to anyone, and my sister can't wait to hold her baby shower here soon ! It truly was such a pleasure to work with Mahi and I truly will miss her.

I had my wedding here 2 weeks ago and i absolutely loved everything about it. The venue is beyond gorgeous without any decoration or flowers. Everything looked so beautiful on the day of my wedding with decorations, flowers, and especially the lighting. I searched many different venues before my day and this the only one I found that would allow outside catering and for us to bring in our own alcohol while staying within our budget. Mahi, the owner was so helpful from day 1. I think i called, texted, and/or emailed her at least 3/wk and she always responded in a timely and friendly manner. She recommended preferred vendors but never made me feel pressured to hire them. Some of the things I liked most about this place was the built-in bar, the beautiful chandeliers, the valet parking, and the fact that you can basically customize to your liking. I received my check for my deposit literally 8 days after my wedding. I highly recommend this place for any bride!

The space is gorgeous!! We had our ceremony and reception here, and rented the outside tent for the cocktail hour while they flipped the room for the reception. Mahi was great to work with. We had one little miscommunication that came up the week before the wedding, and I was shocked that Mahi, the owner, was there the entire day and evening of the wedding to make sure everything was done perfectly! I was really impressed by that and absolutely loved the space for our wedding. It was perfect!

This venue is on a list of Wedding/Reception venues in Roswell, GA. From the photos it looked beautiful inside so we decided we must look at it. We requested a package of information for the venue but only received an email with a price sheet. No other information at all like the other venues provided.
The day of our preview came and it was just as un-informative. The owner's brother met us. We were left to just roam around ourselves and then ask questions which he sometimes knew and other times did not. We did not get a good feeling.
There was a large tent set up outside which he did say was an extra $1000 rental. He said that it is rented for the day so they come out and put it up and take it down just for us. However, this tent had been there for several months as we drive by it all the time. It was dirty around the edges and not ready for any wedding.
Another red flag as far as we were concerned. The kitchen prep area was dirty and the bridal dressing area is shared with an office with an old dirty rug. We were so disappointed with this venue and crossed it off our list.

I got married 4 months ago and wanted to do this review when things calm down a bit to see if I would feel the same about this venue...and the answer is yes I do feel the same about this venue. Would I recommend this venue to anyone? ABSOLUTELY NOT! Everything that could go wrong for a bride went wrong. The only PRO side to this is that the venue is beautiful. It's ashamed that it is not run by a more professional owner. Here are some of the scenarios that happened (that could fit)
(1.) Mahi was suppose to provide set-up/break down of tables/chairs, forks, spoons, knives, centerpieces, linens and backed out 1 month before our wedding. Reasons are unknown. I just got an email saying she was not proving it anymore...yes ONE MONTH before our wedding.
(2). I signed with this place because I was told we would get the place until 1 am. My ceremony were to start at 4 pm and the bartender she used said she couldn't stay past 5 hours. Well...what will my guest be drinking from 10 pm - 1 am? What's the point in having a place if you can't drink the entire time? So Mahi said we can use someone else...OK fine, but she had all these rules on what licenses and permit they needed. I understand that there are policies in place, but please be upfront about it before we sign with your venue. And she only told this to us 1 month before our wedding, so we were scrambling trying to find a hospitality company that met all her needs and had to pay a premium price! YES, 1 MONTH before.
(3.) This venue allows outside catering...a HUGE PLUS for us since we are of ethnic background and we needed ethnic food. Mahi did not tell us that the restaurant we were working with needed to give her proof of liability insurance. OK, this is no big deal, but she only told this to us 2 WEEKS before the wedding....2 WEEKS! Luckily the restaurant we were using gave proof right away, but what if my mom and aunts wanted to cater the wedding (which we highly thought about)...then what?
(4.) Every time we set up a meeting, the owner would be on the phone and talking to everyone else that walked in the venue. Completely rude and unprofessional. Either hire an assistant or don't schedule things at the same time. Overall, the owner did not seem happy with her job.

We had our wedding on Halloween of 2015 and it was a blast!! The pictures of this venue do not do it justice, as it is one of the most beautiful, rustic, and charming buildings! Mahi was really nice to work with but when she tells you that the place comes with the linins its not entirely true. We had to pay extra for the linens but that was ok, they are worth it. We wanted a tent that we thought was included - its not. Overall this place is wonderful for any kind of gathering! Just don't use the bartender that comes with the place...

I came across this venue during a Google search. The pictures did it no justice. From my first day visiting the venue and until the wedding the owner, Mahi, was a pleasure to work with. The venue did not require much decorations because the exposed brick walls and chandelier added a true rustic ambience. This venue will not break the bank and you get much more than what you pay for. Tables and and gold chivalri chairs included, with table cloths available for rental. Take a look at it in person, before you pass on this hidden gym :-)

As a newly engaged couple, we were very excited for our first of many venue tours and what a horrible, subpar experience it turned out to be at the Roswell Historic Cottage. While the interior venue was nice enough, the onsite coordinator was completely un-engaging and unprofessional. We had a 10am appointment and instead of sitting us down to learn about us and what we were looking for, she was literally done giving us the tour and information by 10:01am. In addition to her limited attention, she did not offer to give us a tour of the facility or ask if we had any questions. In fact, she only offered an informational brochure upon request. In addition to the poor customer experience, the facility had very limited parking, no outside area to take pictures, and guests would have to wait outside under a tent while the reception area was setup following the ceremony. Based on our brief experience with this venue, I would urge you to mark this off the list. Not even worth the trip.
Sincerely,
A disappointed bride

We had a wonderful experience at the Cottage for our wedding reception. Mahi made the planning and coordinating SUPER easy. The venue is absolutely gorgeous and requires very little decorating. I would highly recommend the cottage to anyone in the Atlanta area looking for an inexpensive, DIY wedding venue.

I can't say enough good things about this venue. The venue owner/coordinator Mahi was very accommodating. She helped in every way we needed. The day before the wedding I realized I needed an extra long table for the buffet and more chairs and she had it there and ready for us the day of the wedding.
I knew I wanted to book the venue as soon as I visited the site. The brick walls inside give the venue a very rustic/vintage feel and it was exactly what I was looking for. The decorations (chandeliers/drapes) included make the venue look more glamorous and the upstairs area gives extra space for wedding activities.
You also have the venue from 10am till 2am, which was more time for us to do everything than any other venue I had visited, especially for the price.
I chose to only book her venue and hire all other vendors myself but I know they have package options as well.
Again, I can not recommend this venue enough. We loved everything about it and the pictures from inside the venue came out gorgeous.

This site is new to events and is simply amazing. It is an old public library that has been transformed into a beautiful venue. We used the cottage as our reception venue. It has high ceilings, exposed brick walls, a bar area,and an upstairs loft area. We had looked at several venues and nothing had jumpe out at us. We fell in love with the cottage as soon as we walke in. We bookd it the same day.Mahi and her staff are very easy to work with.
