Georgian Hall is an opulent wedding venue that is located in Athens, Georgia. This beautifully constructed banquet hall has held many occasions within its walls. Since its construction in 1908, this establishment has been the center of social activities and luxurious soirees. The architecture and design catered to the elite clientele that attended these events. Today, this gorgeous building is open for hosting a variety of occasions.

Facilities and Capacity

This building has two event spaces that may be used in tandem or separately. The main event area, The Grand Ballroom, fits a maximum capacity of 180 guests, standing. This room boasts many charming elements, such as columns, glittering chandeliers, elegantly patterned floors, and stained glass window panels. For extra space, The Lounge can be rented alongside the ballroom. It fits a maximum of 120 individuals and presents couples and their guests with a bar as well as seating areas. The aesthetic here matches the ballroom, keeping a cohesive atmosphere throughout.

Cuisine options may be catered to the occasion via their associated award-winning restaurant. They are also pleased to serve a variety of local craft beers, brewed around the Athens area. For further information about event services, potential clients are encouraged to reach out with any inquiries they may have.

History

Georgian Hall officially opened its doors as Hotel Georgian in 1909. It saw success and a healthy financial flow for over half a decade. The spread of the motel industry saw this establishment’s decline in the 1960s, and in 1975 the hotel ceased operation. A redevelopment company bought and renovated the building in 1984. The hotel rooms were refit as condominiums, and continue to serve as such to this day. In 2016, the ballroom was restored to take on its new identity as the Georgian Hall. Now open for public use, this stunning destination serves as an ideal wedding and event venue.

Beautiful venue with a dream staff

Georgian Hall made all of our wedding dreams come true. From the moment we stepped into the venue on a tour, we knew it was where we wanted to get married. It’s classic and elegant ballroom is breathtaking enough; however, we underestimated the incredible team behind those gorgeous wood doors! Lindsey, Lisa, and Maddie are a dream team. Through the entire process, they were informative, helpful, calmed all of our nerves, and just overall wonderful people! After every meeting we had with them, my fiancé and I would always leave feeling reassured about our day and feeling so lucky to have the opportunity to work with them. You can trust this team to accommodate to their best of abilities all of your wishes and requests. They even worked so well with a couple of our other vendors who had never worked an event at Georgian Hall. We can’t say enough good things about this venue and their incredible staff!

Chris and Brooke's Wedding

Georgian Hall has to be one of the best wedding venues around. This was our family’s 3rd wedding. While all 3 venues were beautiful, Georgian Hall was definitely our favorite. I was lucky enough to have Shannon as my venue manager. I relied heavily on her experience and expertise. She was so very relaxed and willing to go the extra mile to help us create a beautiful event. Her calm demeanor always gave me a sense of serenity. Her balance of professional and personal was exactly what I needed. I had several guests contact me after the wedding to commend me on the quality of food. (Most people don’t have a high expectation of wedding food, so I was surprised that so many people made it a point to let me know.) Of note, the salmon, brussel sprouts and famous macaroni and cheese were the show stoppers. The servers were so very professional and personal as well. I highly recommend Georgian Hall as your wedding venue.

From the first phone call made to Georgian Hall I could tell they knew their business and my event would be perfect! So kind and pleasant to work with and very quick to reply to any questions! Would love to host another event at Georgian Hall!
