Artichoke dip and meatballs and beautiful vegetable platter just to start out your evening, then moving into the big venue with a perfect little place for your band and dance floor, string lights for ambience. And to top it off with incredible wedding food. Everything came off perfect and beautiful so very impressed. My only tip would be staff could dress a little nicer.

The owners are dishonest. They stated they would pay my family back our deposit for my June 2015…read morewedding if they booked that day. They never told us about the wedding they ended up booking; we found out about the wedding and they refused to talk to us much less refund us what they said they would. My parents took them to small claims court and won the case, and they still won't pay. If they had just told us that we could not have our deposit back, we would have made it work. But they chose to get an extra pay day instead. I would not want to have such uncaring, dishonest people in charge of such a special day in my life. And you can see from other reviews that this is a part of how they make a living. I hope I saved someone some stress and disappointment by finally posting our experience.

From the moment Julie showed me around I was so excited to host our family event there. I knew that what ever theme I chose would fit in perfectly, it is like a blank canvas with so much potential. This past weekend it all came together and surpassed my wildest dreams. Not only were they a pleasure to deal with,always responding quickly to my multitude of questions but they took care of all the vendors the day of and all I had to do was show up. Lauren was so warm and comforting that some of the guests thought she was a family member. We had 150 people comfortably seated with plenty of room for the DJ, dance floor and photo booth. The hall looked beautiful, warm and classic. With most of our guests from Atlanta, Sandy Springs area the compliments just flowed on how beautiful and spacious it was. Having done my homework prior and visiting many other venues,I can honestly say that this was the nicest, most reasonably priced and the most accommodating of all venues. I highly recommend and look forward to hosting future events at 6140 Events .

You first drive down a short dirt/grass road before entering the parking lot (grass). From the hill you can see the venue and the small barn behind it. The venue itself is very easy on the eyes and can supposedly fit up to 200 guests (if you include the walk way on each side). The tasting event itself was fantastic. There were plenty of other couples and families there at the same time but because the venue can fit up to 200 people you have plenty of room. I won't mention what he tasted here since it may be private to the catering company but their food was great. Some foods outshone others but overall I would be happy to consider them as my main caterer for my future wedding. The decor inside the venue was probably the best part of the experience for me. It had a real southern look to it while still keeping it classy. The venue is real tidy and you can tell they keep it very well maintained. I myself would consider having a reception or rehearsal dinner here in the fall but in the summer it would probably get real hot (ATL outdoor wedding in the summer? oh boy...) since there isn't any AC. Overall, this experience has definitely set the bar high! If you're into outdoor weddings or want to have some sort of event with a barn I would highly suggest Silver City Farm!

Conditions were excellent--fairways in great shape and greens rolling true, especially impressive for this time of year. The layout is both fun and challenging, with a great mix of holes that reward good shots without being overly punishing. It's the kind of course where you can swing freely, enjoy the scenery, and still be tested. The staff was welcoming and accommodating, which always elevates the overall experience. You can tell there's pride in both the course and the service. This is definitely a place I'll return to and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a quality round in the area. Great value for the condition and experience.

She told a family member who had come from out of state that she should not walk down to the wedding site because she wouldn't be able to walk back up the hill. This was an elderly person who could have used the assist of a golf cart ride down and back so evidently they don't accommodate any handicap people. This was the worst place I have ever been to. I would not ever recommend this to anyone.

When we started looking a year ago for a venue for my son's wedding in 2023 (this year), we chose this venue because it was small, charming and very affordable- it was under a different name and ownership. In March of this year (2023) it was sold, and purchased by Southern Grace Event Center. Our wedding was not going to be until June and honestly I had no idea what to expect- from renovations to change in ownership. Let me say, on June 3rd, we could not have asked for a more beautiful setting for a wedding! The venue was BREATHTAKING. The changes and upgrades included an open chapel with beautiful architectural design, new bride and groom suites, a completely renovated indoor reception hall with exposed beams on the ceiling, new chandeliers and floor to ceiling stone fireplace, a covered patio w a fireplace and a passthrough window from the bar (we used this as a cigar bar patio) as well as stunning gardens that included a waterfall, blooming roses and hydrangeas. IT WAS AMAZING! And, the new owner John was a joy to work with--so delightful and accommodating. He honored everything in our original contract and more. It was such a lovely experience and an unforgettable, gorgeous wedding.

Note - The lunch and dinner services are a bit different, at lunch you order butter chicken, receive rice, naan and a small salad. But at dinner, you order a protein and it only comes with rice, but you receive a much larger portion, everything else comes separately.
