The Venue at Murphy Lane

Kara and Hank are so invested in each bride and you can see that in every event they have there. We booked with this venue when it was just a construction site. BEST DECISION EVER!!! Our vision aligned perfectly with Kara and Hank's and boy did they deliver. We had our groomsmen stay at the large cabin, and the bridesmaids stayed in the "Bear Cave" on the property. Our rehearsal dinner was held on the patio with the fields and sunset as the background. Every guest raved about how wonderful the staff was and how beautiful the scenery was. If you're still deciding on a venue, go visit this one. You will not be disappointed.

e lovely gates of this amazing pasture, down the long driveway, and to this peaceful place that feels like home away from home. Kara and Hank feel like long lost family as they greet you, and that feeling never fades throughout the entire planning process. In fact, we booked this venue prior to the barn being finished because they are just that amazing, detail oriented, and have already thought of everything that would make your wedding perfect. There are many options for ceremony site ( three outdoor sites - so far, and indoor/patio options as well), the barn is elegant, clean, and air conditioned. There is a barn full of antique tables, table numbers, candle holders, candles ( flameless), lounge furniture, and ceremony decor including church pews, arbors, barn doors, lanterns, ect. For us, just the pasture ceremony site outside was beautiful enough naturally to not need any of it except the lanterns for our wedding for 115 guests. It was hot for September, but we luckily had cloud cover for the ceremony so we weren't squinting in the sun. The cocktail hour was held under a tent on the patio with lights and fans to cool everyone off - Kara and Hank have cocktail tables and patio furniture for use - and then we had an indoor dinner buffet. The Venue has beautiful hand crafted farm tables so we used these and a mix of round tables to soften the look in the reception room and it looked gorgeous underneath the large chandelier; any "space" we had extra, Kara and Hank placed lounge furniture to make it cozy and elegant without us even asking. The string lights on the back patio made for the perfect dance spot and we had a magical exit with sparklers at the end of the night, and stayed in the bear cave on site. My family stayed on site in the cabin making everything very easy for taking supplies at the end of the night, and my two year old nieces loved watching the neighboring cows every morning. The cabin is a relaxing, beautiful place to stay, perfect to fit a lot of people if needed for larger bridal parties ( mine was just my two sisters so just my family stayed there). Kara and Hank did so much behind-the-scenes work both before and during my wedding. They noted and changed things that were not perfect, anticipated needs before we even asked, and as a result all I did was enjoy and relax on the wedding day. Despite being booked every weekend, they make you feel like you are the only ones getting married there and I cannot thank them enough for making this the BEST DAY for Michael and me!

were truly blown away by Hank and Kara, the couple that own the venue and run everything. They are a DREAM to work with. Detail oriented, kind, organized, enjoyable to be around, just all around wonderful people. We trusted them 100% with our wedding day. They KNOW what they are doing and will also recommend great vendors they've worked with before. They even gave us a little memory box after the wedding that included a piece of glass engraved with our names and wedding date. I HIGHLY recommend this venue.

sure that everything was perfect for our big day, down to the smallest detail. Such a sweet couple to work with, BEST DECISION!!!

e booked as soon as possible but was getting frustrated because we could not seem to find "the perfect place" that matched the criteria that each of us had individually. Murphy Lane was the last place on our list and I was praying so hard that it was going to work. As we pulled up into that long, beautiful driveway we were blown away! The barn was still red and we were hesitant as we got out of the car to meet Hank and Kara for the first time. We were instantly welcomed and their hospitality was infectious! When Kara started showing us her plans for the future I could see my daughter's eyes light up and she began grinning from ear to ear! After this meeting we got back into the car and all of us immediately exclaimed "THIS IS IT!" Well, that was a year and three months ago and the wedding was two weeks ago. Hank and Kara did an amazing job of helping us plan, providing us with recommendations for vendors, and suggestions for the ultimate wedding experience. Even though we had a plan B for rain, 15 minutes prior to the ceremony we had to spontaneously think of a PLAN C! Their team worked to make it happen and the ceremony was only delayed by 10 minutes! As MOB I was looking for a full service venue that would allow me and my husband to enjoy the day along with our daughter and Murphy Lane definitely fulfilled that requirement. My daughter was looking for a venue that was classy, sophisticated and rustic all in one and Murphy Lane definitely met that requirement. It was a win/win all the way around! We look back on the experience in the pictures and we are able to enjoy it over and over again. Thank you Hank and Kara!

om the first meeting. Kara and Hank are two of the kindest and generous people you will meet and they will make sure your wedding is a fairytale. This venue is hands down the best venue in Newnan, Peachtree City and Fayetteville! I can say this with confidence since my husband and I are from the area. The venue is breathtaking and once you visit you will not want to leave. Murphy Lane blew our guest away that we are still receiving compliments. Our friends who live in the area were stunned that we found such a well kept secret, which it will not be for long!!! This venue, currently, hasn't been open a year but the service you will receive matches (if not beats) that of places like Fox Hall. If you are considering venues this one needs to be top priority to go see.

fect day. Our wedding was March 10, 2018 and there was not a care in the world that day. This staff is built upon excellence and highly recommend this beautiful venue to anyone who is looking to get married in a stress-free zone. There was nothing more wonderful to have gotten the opportunity to get married in "God's Country". Me and my husband wanted to be married in a place that was naturally beautiful and where the sky was the limit...literally... and this venue and staff gave us that. The diversity that this venue gave us without crazy restrictions made us feel that anything was possible and it definitely was. I am the type of person who strives for perfection and I can say that the staff here at Murphy Lane absolutely nailed it! They brought our vision to life making it truly the BEST.DAY.EVER! If you are considering a barn wedding with an urban chic feel, you need to look no further than this venue because they will give and do anything that you can ever imagine!

weather was perfect as was the location, our guests all told us how much they loved the area and venue. The barn was just a concept at the time of our booking but after meeting Hank and Kara, we had complete confidence that they and their plan would be perfect for us. We are so thankful we put our trust in them because they came through for us in every aspect we could imagine. We planned on having around 50 guests but by the wedding night our guest list was down around 30 (The smallest wedding at the venue at the time). Kara and Hank were able to adjust the venue to be perfect for our small group. They were very attentive to what we liked and disliked, and we had a say in everything. Kara was easy to reach when we needed help finding a vendor or wanted to talk through an idea for the wedding. Kara got us in contact with incredible vendors. We highly recommend staying on property for your wedding weekend, it was so convenient to be right there for setting up the venue and for when the reception was done. There are also plenty of options for hotels nearby for guests. We cannot say enough amazing things about this venue or the owners. Our wedding was so special and it's truly because of Kara and Hank for creating the most incredible venue and for being so attentive. We are recommending the Venue at Murphy Lane to all our friends and family, you can't go wrong.

ave ever imagined. We had our engagement photos done here, rehearsal dinner, and wedding/reception. From day one everything was perfect and Kara and Hank are the absolute nicest people you will ever meet! I would recommend this venue a thousand times over!

ng their vision become reality was breathtaking. I think breathtaking is the word that you will continue to see in every single review of Murphy Lane, because it truly is. Kara and Hank have paid attention to every detail in their design and decorating of this stunning venue. From the main house, to the guest cabin, to the show-stoppingly gorgeous barn. It is rustic, romantic, and pure beauty. I cannot thank Kara and Hank enough for their time and dedication to making our wedding vision come to life. Oh and you must see the Bridal Suite!! What a stunner! If you are looking for a venue, this one can’t be beat! Once you see if for yourself, I’m sure you will fall in love with it like I did. Thank you again Kara and Hank for your kindness and for making our wedding day so amazing. We appreciate you!! Love, Brittany & Josh

gems such as the cabin, main house, and the barn. We knew instantly that this was the place that we would like to get married at because of it being simply breathtaking. We wanted something that we both knew that we would enjoy as well as all our guests attending our wedding. When first meeting with Kara and Hank we could tell that they were passionate about making Murphy Lane into a place where peoples dreams could come true as well as theirs. We first booked the venue for our wedding back in March and saw the transformation of the barn from a red tin barn into a farmhouse feel. Kara and Hank made Murphy Lane into the most beautiful place I've ever seen. They are exceptional people that listen to all the details that you would like for your wedding and make them all come true. They both worked with me every step of the way with planning on the placement of tables, vendors, and helping decorate the venue just how I wanted it. They were very professional and very easy to work with over the past 9 months of planning leading up to our wedding. Each of them were very open to your opinion and always had a positive attitude. Our wedding couldn't have been as amazing as it was without the help of Kara and Hank, and the use of their amazing venue. We wish them all the best as well as all the other future couples that will be using this venue to come. Its an amazing venue located in the country, full of beautiful places to have a ceremony and reception, and is convenient to the Newnan area. We can't thank you enough Kara and Hank...wishing you all the best in the future!!

chose them and their venue for our wedding. They are extremely accommodating and willing to make any and every idea or vision we had come to life. They are so sweet and talented beyond belief. Our wedding exceeded our expectations thanks to Kara, Hank, and of course the stunning venue. Everything from the farm tables and chairs to the gorgeous chandelier and breathtaking views out of the windows made for an absolutely wonderful wedding day. Whatever we wanted, they made it happen. We didn’t even have to lift a finger to decorate! They made sure to set up our ceremony and reception exactly as we wanted. We could not have chosen a more beautiful place to get married. Even our guests were in awe and couldn’t stop talking about Murphy Lane. Thank you, Kara and Hank, for all that you do and for making our wedding day perfect! It’s a blessing to call you both friends. Love, Hannah & Michael

decorating and preparing an elegant southern chic look. I loved it so much in fact that I'm going back again for an engagement shoot.

was perfect. Kara helped me plan and style the ceremony/reception decor for our whimsical, woodland wedding. We were able to turn my Pinterest board into reality! Wedding day were at the venue from sunrise to sunset. The ladies spent most of the day getting pampered (hair, makeup, mimosas) in the bridal suite, while the guys relaxed at the cabin. Pros: -Variety of sites on the property to have rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception, etc. -Golf cart chauffeurs to drive guests and wedding party -Separate areas for guys and ladies to get ready -Barn FULL of decor for your event (tables, chairs, votives, vases, chalkboards, mirrors, etc.) -Most importantly, Hank and Kara are dedicated to you! Cons: -We got married BEFORE the big renovations -Too many places to take pictures (We almost missed the reception taking gorgeous photos around the property!) Thank you Hank and Kara for going above and beyond on our wedding day! Daniel & Taylor
