Wedding in November was best ever! Great from start to finish with everything perfect. Read bad reviews from a wedding there and so different from our familys that it makes me wond...
er what happened. Owners were helpful and detailed all the way planning start to finish. Mom and I did most of planning for sister. They are so sweet and treated us like family all the way through plan to event. My mom said Mrs Julia is angel on this earth. Handicap guests loved it there and were helped with love and care and got around everywhere fine even in wheelchair. Lady on inside very sweet and helped with my dress tear. Road and parking great lighting I was at weddings other places going to car in total dark and no help. These people helped whole wedding with golfcart. They worked and worked to make everyone happy all night with smiles. Whole place sparkling clean, beautiful and well maintain and family said we were so lucky to find this place. I will recommend them to everyone.
Absolutely the best sales job I've seen since Enron.
He's still in jail.
These folks will promise a lot of things but if you don't have it on paper, it doesn't count. No matter w...
hat, get it on paper, get it initialed, and get it signed and dated.
Kim B left a wonderfully detailed account of the unfortunate events regarding my younger sister’s wedding reception, but failed to point out that the bride ended up missing her ent...
ire reception and crying herself to sleep that night of November 19, 2022. I hope the owner enjoyed his special birthday though.
This venue should not claim to be "handicap accessible". It is NOT. We told the owner from the beginning that many in our family are disabled and would be in a wheelchair or using...
a walker. She showed me a ramp connected to the back porch that she claimed was for wheelchair access. She also said that they would be adding ramps for access to the decks snd to each of the outside toilets. The existing ramp is rickety, dangerous and too narrow for a wheelchair. No other ramps were ever added. The weather was rainy and cold (high 30s) the evening of the wedding. Fortunately we had rented a 20 X 40 tent. We bought three electric heaters for the tent, but the owner told us that they had a propane heater that would heat the whole tent. We brought a full propane tank and then the owners husband informed us that we could not use the heater in the tent because it would "melt it". We nearly froze. Even though we had the venue booked until 11 PM, the owner suddenly announced around 7:45 that we had 2 hours to pack up and leave the premises. When I asked her if something had happened to upset her, she repeatedly said, "Read your contract". Of course, my contract was at home, so I could not read it. I asked her again to please tell me if something had happened and she waved her hands in front of her face and turned and walked into her pantry and shut the door. She had told me weeks before that we could return the following morning to pick up any decorations or wedding items rather than try to load up everything that evening. She suddenly decided that everything had to be cleaned up and removed before 10 PM because the next day was her husband's birthday. As the decorator and her assistant were trying to leave the house with their full boxes, the husband of the owner slammed the door behind them and screamed "filthy fu---ing s-its!!" I also never got my $250 damage deposit returned to me. We did not damage anything and the property was left just as we had found it. This venue is a beautiful place, but it should not be advertised as handicap accessible until they make some major renovations. They also need to work on their communication skills. A previous review stated how good the condition of the dirt road is. Maybe in times past. On November 18 and November 19, 2022, it was terrible. Parking area (pasture on the other side of the house) was dark and hard to navigate when guests were trying to leave. The golf cart transport was sporadic at best to help carry elderly and handicapped from the parking area to the house and back. I spent most of my time trying to locate the owner to get elderly and disabled family and friends carried back to their cars.
This venue is breathtaking. The staff was fabulous and attentive. 5 star review on everything. Attention to details. restrooms so very clean and maintained with pride. Everyth...

.
The very best of southern charm and beauty. I was a guest from Michigan and was unbelievably impressed. We all expected hillbilly wedding in Alabama and Loved everything! Normally ...
hate weddings but this one was best ever! Place, people and horses beyond AMAZING.
My wife and I were guests of a wedding party at Sago Springs Manor about 4 months ago and as an avid hunter and fisherman let me tell you the venue was excellent. The forest setti...
ng at twilight was perfect for the late afternoon/early evening ceremony and then our group moved to the outdoor deck. The strand lighting provided just enough soft light to assure safe walking and dancing on the deck and steps but did not take away from the full moon and stars in the sky. We were impressed to say the least. It was a beautiful wedding and reception.
The most magical, southern Venue you have seen this side of the Mason Dixon. The people are so sweet, and the animals are perfection. The whole wedding was so romantic!
OMG. What a fantastic venue. Worth the trip from Birmingham.
Peaceful and elegant wedding here as a guest. Loved this venue. Out in the country tucked private. Visited from Knoxville. Came with the photographers as a helper. This place was w...
orth the drive. Photographers dream everywhere we looked it was something different. Warm and welcoming people. The horses are to die for. So friendly. The white one was so cute and photogenic. Had to drive all the way home that night to get back to our families and talked the whole way home about this wedding. We now compare other weddings we do to this one. Our photos there made our portfolio pop at a bridal show in Knoxville and get customers.
My wife and I are Violinists and have performed for weddings/receptions at Sago Springs Manor over the past year. The ceremonies are performed in a tranquil outdoor setting of the...
couples choosing of either a forest setting, covered pavilion or on the deck area. We have been asked to perform in Black & White formal, business casual and country western attire which shows the owners willingness to accommodate any setting the couples requests. We always enjoy the formality and rigid rules/schedules of a church wedding but it is great to "mix-it-up" with a rustic country shindig wedding as well and Sago Springs Manor offers both of these styles (and everything in between) to their couples. Marie and I are always excited to perform at Sago Springs Manor.
Well worth the trip! When I got the wedding invitation I thought "BLAH" a trip to Alabama just for a wedding - but it was WELL WORTH THE TRIP!
The outdoor venues that Sago Sprin...
gs offers are beautiful for daytime weddings and absolutely breathtaking for evening weddings. The lengths that the owners go to assuring that details are exactly as expected were impressive. They took a lot of the burden off the bridal party and we had more time to enjoy the ceremony and reception. The landscape of Sago at the event I attended was beautiful and they allowed me to view photographs of previously events which featured other on site venues that we didn't even know were on the property. It was very impressive and the Sago Springs staff really exhausted themselves for us. Well worth the trip to Alabama for a destination wedding.
Grandaughters wedding was magical here. They wanted a wedding different from other weddings and they got it here. Was my babies dream come to life. Other family had a wedding that...
they paid for were really mad that they didn't find this place. Said it was prettier than their wedding and so much cheaper and nicer people. Randall said he could have bought them a car with the money he would have saved if used here and more pretty. Loved the staff and animals. Beautiful inside and outside. Has a feeling you can't find other places. They made my baby have her perfect day come true. Thank you.
We were so happy with our special day. Thank you soooo much!
Julia and her husband are the absolute best. They made our day 100x easier and so much less stressful. Helping us out with anything we needed and going above and beyond. To top it ...
off their wedding venue is like it’s out of a magazine. Absolutely beautiful!! Great prices as well. My new husband and I searched everywhere looking for the perfect place while still being on a budget. I was so happy when he found Sago Springs Manor. We highly recommend this wedding venue to any future bride on a budget, but still wanting to make their day how THEY want it @ a beautiful spot.
I would recommend Sago Springs to anyone who is looking for a rustic outside wedding! This place is beautiful and the price is budget friendly! Julia is the most nicest, selfless, ...
accommodating person I have ever met. She will take care of you and will make sure that your day goes perfectly! Hands down the greatest people and the greatest place!
This was a great venue! Miss Julia is very sweet and very accommodating to brides. She truly understands trying to stay within a budget and will work with you to make your day as w...
onderful as can be. If you want a more laid-back, rustic or casual venue that boasts beautiful grounds, a lovely furnished plantation home, and carefully crafted details, this is the venue for you!
WONDERFUL venue and owners. Miss Julia treats us like real family. My fiancé said he knew it was the place when we pulled down the beautiful driveway. Loved the property and price....
Able to have this place for two full days for a third of the price a friend paid for six hours. Also buying a house so on a budget. They are watching our money spending like it was their own suggesting ways to save but splurge. More beautiful than we thought we could afford. Use the horse and carriage if you can. Can't say enough except go look and better book before someone else does. Will suggest Sago Springs Manor to all my friends and family.
