Glendalough Manor

Absolutely beautiful venue! Obvious attention is paid to every detail on the grounds for seasonal landscape. In addition to the wedding & reception, we hosted the rehearsal dinner. Great Mexican Theme dinner. Added many flower arangements that were then used for the ceremony the following day. Set up the banquet are with pinatas, pepper string lights, and clear globe lights. Way cute!!!! Also decorated the bar area with additional flower arrangements to added ambience. Provided some recipes which the chef was happy to follow.

My husband and I recently tied the knot at Glendalough Manor and our day could not have been anymore like what we had always dreamed it would be! The planning process was made quick and easy by their expert staff. We worked mostly with Pennie, Jena, and Nicole. All were very patient, accommodated ALL of our needs, and just a pleasure to work with. We changed our minds many times about various things and they were always eager to help us make changes. They were quick to get back to me anytime I sent an e-mail or left a message. After all of the planning, I truly felt like they were family! They hosted our rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding and did an awesome job with this, too. Our wedding day was very stress free, exciting, and fun! Although Glendalough conducts weddings daily, they made me feel like my wedding was THE most important wedding ever. Every detail of our wedding on the day of was taken care of by the staff. We did not have to worry about the cake being delivered, the DJ setting up, the photographer arriving on time, etc. It is a gorgeous facility!! This all inclusive venue is definitely the way to go! I have two younger brothers that live in Ohio but my dad has already said that when they get married, if they ask for his money, they have to get married down in Georgia at Glendalough. They are just THAT good!!

The wedding day of May 19 was an outstanding!!!! Thank you Glendalough staff and Jenna for a delightful evening. Danny and Abby were thrilled with everything....from the meal to the music to the decor and how kind you were to them...and all our guests. A huge thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We will send pictures to you soon.

This is the most gorgeous venue in or around Atlanta - I knew immediately it would be the place I got married. Glendalough weddings are intense, so be prepared to sign a long, detailed contract and fill out quite a bit of paperwork. They require the bride (and groom) to meet certain deadlines, use their vendors, and attend scheduled meetings. They schedule the wedding day in 15 minute increments. I was very intimidated by the process. However, now looking back on my wedding, there's not a chance I would've done it any differently. The coordinators were in constant contact with me leading up to the day and were extremely attentive to anything that came up. They don't allow you to forget or slack on anything (which I really needed!) Because the process getting there is extremely regimented, the wedding ran like a well-oiled machine because everything had been accounted for. I was completely at ease and the staff took care of everything with a smile on their face. The (in house) food was incredible - so many guests said it was the best wedding food they've ever had - and the vendors were all top notch.
I can't think of anything I would change about my wedding and I would recommend this venue to anyone!

Overall my experience was GREAT at Glendalough Manor!! I absolutely enjoyed working with Nicole on my wedding plans/design. The staff was very friendly and easy to get a hold of.

Would reccommend Glendalough to anyone looking for a BEAUTIFUL venue!!

The most stress-free wedding venue you could choose. The staff is top notch and take pride in what they do. They have this down to a fine art. Reception only, did not have ceremony there but the venue is beautiful. The food was even better than at the tasting! Thanks Chef! They work really hard to provide you as close to your "vision" as possible. The outside grounds are gorgeous. Absolutely the bang for your buck. If you are looking for a great staff, organized, gorgeous venue, this is your stop. Price - they are very competitive with other venues in the area. Thanks Glendalough for the great time and all that you did on the wedding day!! Highly recommend GM!!

Nicole Wear and Penny were the best, very professional and fun to work with. Our wedding was amazing!!! I couldn't have imagined a more perfect day. My husband and I are so glad that we chose to get married at Glendalough. We planned our wedding from another state and the staff at Glendalough was great with helping us plan our wedding from so far away. Our guests had so much fun and the word that everyone unanimously used to describe our wedding was classy. If you want your day to be magical and stress free, Glendalough is the place you should choose. I am so happy that we chose to get married there. The DJ is pretty good as well. He plays the songs you give him and keeps the dance floor moving.

From the first visit to Glendalough my husband (then fiancé) knew it was where we were meant to get married. Being the practical sort I wanted to look at other places in the area just to be sure. We spent three months traveling all over metro-Atlanta looking at EVERY ( I really do mean every) place that dealt with weddings. Not a one could hold a candle to Glendalough's attention to detail, the beauty of the grounds and the manor, or the value of the services offered for the money. We had a little "sticker shock" our first run of the numbers at Glendalough--but when you add up what the same things would cost " ala carte" at some of the other venues or what it would cost in labor and time to do it yourself--Glendalough was the best value by far. Jaylyn and all the staff at Glendalough made us feel special and they all seemed to genuinely care about our special day--they got to know us and made sure our day was really OUR day. We wanted a stress-free, fun, beautiful wedding experience and Jaylyn and Glendalough made sure that happened. I still am getting compliments from guests at the wedding--"it was the most beautiful, original, fun wedding they have ever been to". Thank you Jaylyn and all the wonderful staff at Glendalough for making our day happen in such a wonderful way. Glendalough should be your first and last stop for weddings and special events!

Wow! Glendalough Manor is an amazing place! My son was married here 10/22/11 at the 7:00pm ceremony. It was so beautiful, the sun was setting, the gardens were lit up, the lighting was perfect. Pastor Grant Cole was so loving and kind. Upon entering the Manor after the ceremony our guests were greeted with a full premium bar and appetizers and then walked into the Wicklow ballroom. The ballroom was so beautiful, dinner was served to a candle lit room. The food was outstanding! Jennifer, Gary, Holly, their impeccable wait staff and Pennie were so kind and professional. They were a joy to work with. This family knows how to treat their guests! The music by Jules was perfect, our guests were dancing the entire night! I just cannot say enough about Glendalough. I also had the rehearsal dinner there the night before and I did not have to do a thing, they took care of everything. I would highly recommend Glendalough to anyone for weddings and any other events.

From day one, the staff was very organized and very dedicated to making the day exactly how we wanted it. All of our vendors were recommended by Glendalough which made payments very easy, only one for everything! That was the best part of it all! Jennifer was our wedding coordinator, she is so sweet and very knowledgeable about everything wedding related! The ONLY thing that I wasn't fond of was the reception video. We were told they had brand new cameras and assured us we didn't need a videographer. When we receieved our video, there was no sound and it was very dark, you could hardly see. BUT, they don't guarantee the video, so that was fine. Everything else was absolutely PERFECT and i would recommend it to ANYONE! Thank you Jennifer, Jaylyn, and the rest of the Glendalough staff for making our day so special!

If anyone is looking for the perfect place to have an outdoor wedding, Glendalough is your venue! We were married at Glendalough Manor on 9/17/11 and it was the perfect day. Our wedding coordinator, Jennifer, made sure that everything turned out exactly as we envisioned and took care of all of our vendor communication. The venue itself is breathtaking and the service we received was amazing. The food is delicious, the ballroom for the reception is spacious for dancing. We also easily accommodated our handicapped guests. Everyone at Glendalough seems to love what they do and they reflect this positivity through their outstanding, first class service!

I was married at Glendalough Manor on September 3, 2011 and my wedding ceremony and reception were beautiful. I was blessed enough to get Jennifer Gowing for my coordinator and boy was she ever a blessing. My wedding was planned while I was out of the country which meant most of the coordinating was done via email. Jennifer was responsive and she understood my vision. My guests and I were very pleased and had the time of our lives. If there were any complaints I did not hear them and they certainly did not come from me. Glendalough is hands down the best place for a dream wedding. Thanks Jennifer for being so accommodating.

OH MY GOSH..... Have your wedding here!!!! Glendalough, a family-owned and operated site in Tyrone, Ga, was awesome!!! I can talk about the beautiful gardens, exquisite ballrooms, and delicious food (people are still talking about the food from our wedding). BUT, I think what was really awesome about Glendalough is the step-by-step, let-me-help-you-break-your-wedding-down, stress-reducing services. First, you are given a wedding planner, as part of your package, and Jennifer Gowing is the BESTEST. They have done so many weddings that they can take a clueless person like me and tell me EVERYTHING I needed to know to create a perfect day - and the online services kept me organized and informed. Second, Glendalough sets you up with multiple vendors so you don't have to spend days and weeks searching out the best florist or photographer, or DJ - they have options available (I met with 3-4 of each vendor in the course of a day and chose who I liked best), and all the vendors have done multiple weddings AT Glendalough, so no worries as to your photographer standing in the wrong place or not getting the best shots. Finally, they pay your vendors - so Glendalough splits your payments up monthly across your planning period. There was no owing $4000 this month, and $20 the next. We only ever paid Glendalough, in even monthly payments, and they in turn paid the cake vendor, the photographer, the DJ, etc etc - and again the online system helped me see my budget, organized and added up, as I chose or changed vendors. Now, Glendalough is a family business, so you won’t get the super-business like demeanor that you might at some other places. But then again, I preferred family-friendly to uptight-business all the time. It made the planning process more fun and less stressful. Needless to say, my day was perfect, everything turned out amazing.

They are amazing! Beautiful venue! The wedding coordinators there are top notch (I had Jenna and Jennifer)! I highly recommend Glendalough, they made my day very special and stress free!

I was an out of town bride and the Glendalough Manor did everything they could to accomodate me. The venue was beatiful. There is not a venue in the Chicagoland area that can compete with this full service venue.

We used this facility in March 2011. While the facility is lovely the inflexibility of the management was frustrating and the service was inconsistent. If you are using this facility be aware that they may only be available to meet with you for planning sessions during regular business hours M-F. This was challenging. Bar set up down the hall from the ballrooms is also a little weird. We had them do wait staff beverage service so that our guests did not have to leave the party to get a beverage. (Fortunately we were the only party on premise this day. Can't imagine what a mess if another party had been there.) This was something they had never done before and it was a little challenging to get them to agree. They forgot to move flowers from ceremony spot to banquet table and those beautiful expensive flowers were missed! Yes really, they did not move the flowers! The basket that they provided for the get away limo was a joke. So disappointing. There was no mic provided for ceremony and it was very difficult to hear outside. Service to release tables to banquet was lax. Guests waiting to go get food too long. You can do a beautiful wedding here if you are comfortable with all of their guidelines. I did like their on line planning service, it was handy. Recommended cake vendor was lovely. Written by mother of the bride.

Our wedding day at Glendalough Manor was amazing. We had both our ceremony and reception at Glendalough and Jennifer was our assigned wedding coordinator. The grounds and facilities are absolutely beautiful. I really liked the unique look of this venue and that so much was already included there. We did not have to worry about paying for extra things like linens or a surprise corking fee. The staff is very professional and helped everything run extremely smoothly.

I was a bit concerned going into our day because we got married during a very popular time of year and there were multiple events at Glendalough on our wedding day. However, this did not affect my day at all. The staff kept us on schedule and we didn't even see the other bride and groom. Another thing I was hesitant about was our DJ. He kind of came with the venue, and I wasn't sure what to expect...but he did a fabulous job! I got compliments from guests of all ages. My dance floor was packed the entire night and every guest was having a good time. The food was absolutely delicious as well!

Glendalough Manor is a perfect place to have a fairytale wedding. I truly enjoyed the venue. The outdoor ceremony site makes a great place for wonderful pictures. Great service.....ask for Jena!

My FI and I were going to get married here, the place is absolutely gorgeous. However, we decided to get married in my hometown of San Diego, Ca.

I would recommend this place.

Beautiful location...I loved that they suggested all of the vendors and we were able to interview the vendors

Glendalough Manor is beyond amazing! The venue is beautiful and the staff are more than just your wedding planners..they become your friends. They are very proffessional and well organized. Penny Stacey was amazing and I would not have changed anything about my perfect day!
