    50th Wedding Anniversary

    We had over 100 guests to celebrate with us. I loved the affordable, air-conditioned space. The room was arranged to my liking and to accommodate DJ, bar, dance floor, buffet and seating. I was able to bring-in my own table decorations although Kim, the owner, was willing to decorate. I was just particular.etc. She planned out a payment schedule and met with me numerous times to make certain all would go smoothly. She would also text reminders. Great, responsive communication.We were very pleased.

    Southwind Acres's reply:

    Kim was a Dream!

    The experience was excellent. Kim helped me more than I ever expected, and she was so patient as I changed my mind and forgot different pieces, she kept it all straight and together. I couldn't have done it without her. Kim and her team definitely EXCEEDED my expectations. Everything was set up beautifully and they all thought of things I never would have. I appreciate their professionalism and experience. It was very stress free. The timing was perfect, the vendors all knew what to do and you all adjusted to everything beautifully. Thank you again for all your hard work.

    Southwind Acres's reply:

    Thank you so much for the fabulous review. I figured that I was up for the challenge of you living out of town and never seeing the venue until the day before the wedding and from you review I succeeded. I was such a pleasure working with you through text and email. You knew what you wanted and I made your vision come true. Thank you again for allowing Southwind Acres to be a part of your special day. May you have many years of love and health. I now consider you and James as part of our family. If you are ever in town, pleasse do not hestite to stop by. I would love seeing you again. Thank you again

    The best venue & owners!!

    Effortless

    If you’re looking for a great location, perfect venue space, and reception all in one, amazing venue owners, then stop looking. Miss Kim and her husband Mr. James has made this hidden gem, the most perfect place to get married, or host an event. I remember messaging with Kev at 4 AM in morning stressed out, looking for a venue and she replied within 30 minutes. Her communication throughout this entire process has been exceptional. She has every decor, piece imaginable, her follow up is impeccable, and her referrals for caterers in bartenders, are hands down the best. You are treated as family from day 1.

    Southwind Acres's reply:

    Thank you so much for the wonderful review. You, your wedding planner, and your whole entire tribe of planning participants made this wedding so exceptionally easy. Everyone was so receptive to suggestions and ideas in order to make your true Vision come to life. Your wedding and everyone involved was impeccable. Thank you again for allowing us to be a part of your special day. You and Michael are now and will always be a part of the Southwind Acres Venue family

    Exceptional Wedding Coordinator

    They guided us through the entire planning process, from choosing the perfect venue to selecting the most exquisite floral arrangements. Their extensive industry knowledge allowed us to make informed decisions, ensuring every aspect of our wedding was top-notch. We felt confident and stress-free, knowing they had everything under control. They were always available to answer our questions, provide suggestions, and address any concerns promptly. Their responsiveness and willingness to adapt to our needs made us feel valued and cared for. Evidently, they genuinely wanted our wedding to be as perfect as we did.

    Southwind Acres's reply:

I will do all the hard work for you.You gave me your vision and I am so glad it turned out as you wished.PERFECT. You and Tyler are now a part of Southwind Acres Venue family.

    Perfect!!!

    September 9, 2023 my daughter and son-in-law got married here. Everything that day was amazing if not perfect. The venue itself is the perfect country, private, beautiful location. It has a chapel, outdoor area, and barn- style chapel to choose from to have your wedding and/or reception. From them viewing the venue to the wedding day Kim and her husband James went above and beyond to make sure this day went smoothly and perfect for them. It rained, poured this day and they made sure the outdoor area was still beautiful for their ceremony. They exceeded all of my expectations. Everything was so stress free. When we arrived that morning everything was already decorated and in place. I would recommend Southwind Acres Venue to anyone that is looking to get married. I have already recommended it wedding groups I am apart of. Southwind Acres Venue is the perfect, beautiful to celebrate any occasion.

    Southwind Acres's reply:

    Amanda, The wedding really did turn out perfect. Your daughter wanted it to rain (which would make really cute, beautiful and unusual pictures) and that it did. But you got the best of both world because shortly after the ceremony rain the sun came out and dried everything up. This also made for beautiful pictures. It was a pleasure working with you planning her wedding. Everything went so smooth and it turned out just as you had planned. Thank you so much for the review and recommendations and you too are part of Southwind Acres family. We hope to see you agin for any occasion.

    Absolutely Amazing!

    I got married here on September 9th 2023 and it was amazing! The place is absolutely gorgeous. You have the option of outside or in the chapel. Kim and James made the planning and day of go stress free and smoothly. They have all tables and chairs so you don’t have to worry about renting any and they offer decorations! They set everything thing up for you so that you don’t have to worry about it. They help in any way they can and they are the sweetest! I will always recommend them to anyone that asks!

    I don’t have many pictures from the day but I did put a few that I have!

    Amazing venue and staff.

    This venue was amazing. Kim and her husband were very professional and went above and beyond to make our day special. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and professional. The decorations and chapel were beautiful and Kim kept in touch through the whole process to make sure we had everything we needed and wanted. The grounds are beautiful for an outside wedding , the chapel was beautiful for an inside wedding, the reception area was very spacious and beautiful. Our whole event was amazing and stress free. Thank you for making our day special for us.

    You pay less and get more! - FOR REAL

    With prices of everything skyrocketing these days and hidden fees, it was a breath of fresh air to deal with an honorable business woman who truly wanted to make it an affordable, straightforward and easy process for the bride and groom. With Southwind Acres Venue, you pay less and get more! Whatever I wanted or needed, Kim had. She has this beautiful walk-in closet full of decorations and a binder showing what has been done in the past to give you ideas for what you want your wedding to look like. She told me part of the deal is that we can use her decorations at no additional charge! We didn’t have to worry about bringing them or cleaning them up! We were able to have the ceremony and reception there in the middle of winter in her beautiful little chapel located right next to the reception hall. Most wedding venues don't allow smoking these days. Kim, however, set up a cigar smoking spot outside for my dad and his friends, so that everyone could feel comfortable. I had the most beautiful wedding day and everyone from young to old, men and women had nothing but wonderful things to say about their experience on our wedding day at Southwind Acres Venue. The only things that went wrong at the wedding were my choices of using other vendors than what she recommended. If I had to do it over again, I would have just listened to Kim from the get-go of what vendors to use. She never steered me wrong. She went above and beyond to serve us and make everything perfect!

    Southwind Acres's reply:

    Thank you so much Savannah for the wonderful review. We so much enjoyed working with each and every one that was involved in all aspects of the planning stages. It was our pleasure to make sure your dream day was brought to reality . Welcome to Southwind Acres family. Rhank you again

    Wonderful place for an event

    This is a wonderful venue with incredible owners. We hosted our going away party here and found the staff to be fun and super easy to work with. They even did the clean up for us at the end! We had 50 people for lunch and 70 at the drop in party after with plenty of space. The outdoor area with swings and fire pit gave a sweet spot for our guests to chat and relax outdoors as well. (Even in January!)

    The best part (besides Mrs. Kim and her hard working husband) was that you can choose beautiful decor from her massive storage selection and it’s included in your price!

    We highly recommend Southwind Acres ❤️

    Southwind Acres's reply:

    Thank you so much Gina Wolfe . We always strive our best to make sure things go as smoothly as possible.Everyone enjoyed the games and the food was fabulous. It really was an Italian going away party. Thank you again for all the kind words. Safe travels and do nit forget to post many many pictures.

    Amazing Experience!

    Kim was very helpful since the beginning! We met up before the big day and gave her an explanation of how we wanted everything set and it definitely exceeded my expectations! Both her and her husband were very professional and flexible! I definitely recommend them for any event!

    Southwind Acres's reply:

    Your baby shower was so much fun. We made sure that everything was done according to your explanation and added a few personal touches to make it special for you and Caesar. I am so glad that you chose us to be a part of your families celebration. We're looking forward to seeing pictures of that beautiful baby. Thank you again for the fabulous review.

    Beautiful and easy

    I was the wedding coordinator as well as everything else for a couple getting married. I had two months to pull this off! Kim at Southwind Acres said we can do this! Without hesitation she and the bride had all the decorations picked out and layout of the entire venue! On the day of she had everything done! I was shocked how attentive she was to every little detail! She and her husband were there from beginning to end! She even bartended and her husband made sure everyone was happy! I know we couldn’t have done it without them! We love y’all so much! Thanks again for making the day perfect!

    Southwind Acres's reply:

    Thank you so much Jill. We work hard to get compliment by this from my brides and wedding coordinators. It was a beautiful wedding. I hope we can work together again real soon

    A great decision!

    Kim abd her husband we’re very supportive and got everything ready for the ceremony and reception. It wouldn’t have been so beautiful without their help! The place looked amazing and everyone had a great time! We made the right decision when we chose this place for our wedding! Best wishes for Southwind Acres!

    Brenda 8/4/22 Professional and amazing.

    My son had his wedding at Southwind Acres and it was an amazing experience. Kim & James were on top of everything. The place was beautiful and was decorated before we arrived there. We had a wonderful experience with Kim & James and I would highly recommend this venue.
