Magnolia Estate Wedding Weekends

Your wedding deserves an entire weekend.

A Wedding Worth an Entire Weekend

Some weddings are measured in hours.

Yours deserves an entire weekend.

At The Magnolia Inn, your closest family and friends gather in one beautiful place to celebrate from Friday afternoon through Sunday morning. Every meal, every toast, every conversation, and every unforgettable moment unfolds on our historic estate, allowing you to simply enjoy being together while our team thoughtfully hosts every detail.

More Than a Venue

Most wedding venues host your ceremony.

Some host your reception.

Others provide overnight accommodations.

Very few offer all of them together.

The Magnolia Estate Wedding Weekend was created for couples who want something more meaningful than a single day.

Rather than rushing between multiple locations, your entire celebration takes place in one beautiful setting where your guests arrive on Friday, settle into the inn, celebrate together throughout the weekend, and gather one final time for farewell brunch before beginning your next chapter.

No venue changes.

No transportation logistics.

No hurried timelines.

Just an unforgettable weekend spent with the people you love most.
