Sipping Plant seems to be a new thing now. I've been seeing Groupon deals on it. Plus friends have…read morebeen going there. My company had a team bonding event at Sipping Plant so I was able to check it out at the newest location in Kennesaw. Before starting, everyone should arrive early to sign a waiver and show ID. The class is for everyone even though you may be with your different groups. Everyone gets to choose whether or not they want to do 1 large or 2 medium or 2 small. I chose 1 large. Once everyone gets their bowl(s), we all sit with our groups for further instructions. Depending on the size of our bowls, we are instructed how to fill gravel and soil. Afterwards, we choose plants. We could choose 1 large and 1 small or 3 small. I chose 3 small. Further instruction is given when we decide on which plants want. Then we're off to making our bowl(s) as creative as we want. Overall, it is at the hour mark. The host gladly would take photos of your group if you want. She continued to give instructions how to take are of our plants. I did like the experience. I have my bowl by the window. 146/2019

It is totally walkable, but we were one of the last ones to get there so parked in the upper part of the lot. You walk right by where the reception is to the get to the grassy area below where the ceremony was. Afterwards, it is a short walk back up the hill to the reception area. This area is covered in case of rain, so have no fear. It is outdoors and had a nice breeze. There is also a fireplace for those cold nights as well. The dance floor is huge and there are many photo opps around the property, that you are welcome to roam. They let you use your own vendors that come onsite from what the bride and groom told us.

You choose what color to paint the wood, then go thru a several step process until voila, you have a beautiful decorative wood plank for your home or as a gift. I love the selections where you can personalize with your family name and "est." date. They had a team of ladies come to our event to help with instructions and color recommendations if you needed them - super nice & helpful. Definitely allot two hours for this kind of event. Highly recommend not just for team building but also a great activity to do among friends. The reviews mention BYOB which is awesome too!

I…read morewasn't really sure what to expect as I've never done an AR workshop, but it was pretty fun! I It was a Friday night and there was one other party there as well. I like that it was more private and intimate. Honestly it was like the other group wasn't even there which I liked. They had workers who helped them on their projects while we had some for our table who helped us. I can't remember the girl who was helping us, but she was good at helping me pick out the kind of wood and colors I wanted for my project because I wasn't sure. I didn't even know we'd be doing diy stuff like sanding our wood and nailing things together. I thought that was pretty neat and different. The staff was very welcoming to our party and helpful. They made sure we all were able to get the steps done that we needed. They showed us how to use the air gun which I thought was cool. I like how they showed us examples of other projects around the shop to get ideas from. You're also allowed to bring your own food and wine, which is similar to the sip and paints. Our party brought along some snacks and wine and it was just a great wind down time to get away from work and start off an enjoyable weekend I definitely will go back because I saw some other stuff I'd love to make!

We attended my girlfriend's sister's wedding and like the other reviewer, were impressed by the…read morevenue itself. The food was also incredibly good and the bar even took the steps to serve modified Old Fashioneds (no simple syrup). However, their customer service ahead of and at the end of the wedding (and even how they treat their staff) was well below expectations. And as you will see in their response below, they continue to argue with customers (and in this case their guests after the fact). It's quite surprising to see a vendor argue with someone in a public place. A bit about my background, I led a $2B business selling to a major retailer - and in my career, I never argued back with that customer because it seemed dumb to argue with folks keeping us in business. So, the response below (and now in a picture) is shocking to see on a $30k+ per transaction business. It also seems to imply that 'pushy attitude' is written in their contract and they will not flex from what's in the contract. Example, the venue had no booking during the day and so opening early, seemed possible [maybe they bill for 1-2 people to be there from the venue itself?]. Their actions and sometimes lack of - led to a higher than expected stress level for the bride and family. All of these things seem easy to remedy on their part. However, if you decide to get married here - it seems critical to have everything you expect of them spelled out in the contract (down to requiring the demeanor of the management to be polite, consistent, and responsive). As I understand it, many commitments were made by the venue ahead of the big day - only to be told over email at 1 AM, two nights before, were not included. This is after leading up to the event never being able to have a consistent contact person - perhaps, requiring the event sales rep to give their cell # to customers is a good idea? One example, was saying last minute they would not provide vases for the flowers on tables. In a last stitch effort, vases were rented from the florist. Day of, the venue was insistent that those coming to decorate could not be in Ivy Hall any sooner than 4pm for a 6pm start. At the end of the night, the staff quickly broke down the tables and expected those of us packing up the gifts, vases, flowers, signs, etc to be extremely quick. Amidst that chaos, there were candles and plastic domes around them sitting next to other things that were the wedding party's. We started packing the white candles and the manager came over and said "Those aren't yours! And great, you messed them up!" She then proceeded to chastise the bar tender for not paying attention to us stealing things. Why would we want 10-20 used candles? And, my girlfriend overheard them loudly say 'we're trying to get them out of the bridal suite' - when they were packing up the bride's things. As an aside, it takes me back a little to have the management call the bride's family "vendors" in her response (see picture) as we were the ones setting up and taking down decorations. Great venue, good food, bad service. A well spelled out contract defining your (not just theirs as the management states in their comment) expectations is a must-have if you do a wedding or other event at Ivy Hall. You only get one wedding, venues do many of them - might consider elsewhere if you are seeking guidance from the venue's experts throughout this once in a lifetime event for you.

We decided to try this place out first. We paid $80 for a squeegee art for my two daughters. Unfortunately, it looks like some paint was just smudged around. The class was two hours, and I was SHOCKED at how little guidance they received to make proper squeegee art. I think the lady must have had the girls just put a bunch of random paint colors anywhere on the paper and that's why the colors look awfully mixed, and it produced a horrid dark color. Sadly, we won't be doing a birthday party here or recommending this place to anyone.
