You are engaged, and planning your wedding, YAY! This is one of the most exciting times of your life and wedding planning is so fun, yet can be overwhelming. I am here to help you, think of be your wedding bestie, and alleviate some of the wedding planning stress by providing a few of my favorite venues as a wedding photographer.
As a Columbus Georgia based wedding photographer, I have photographed at MANY wedding venues across the nation and some of my favorite venues are located here in Columbus Georgia. No matter what your aesthetic/vibe, you have many options here in the Chattahoochee Valley, from rustic barns to venues with gardens and beautiful architecture, you’ll be sure to find the perfect venue.
The Bibb Mill






Why is The Bibb Mill one of my favorite venues in Columbus Georgia?
From the gorgeous gardens to the large space indoors, no matter what your vision is this venue can be your dream come true. They have two bridal suites to get ready in which is perfect to have your hair and makeup done at one spot. One of the best perks of the Bibb Mill is that they have catering and bartending on site(their food is SO good!) and they allow access for 12 hours. They can accommodate any size wedding, from small weddings to large parties. You can have your wedding indoors or outdoor in their gardens or their lawn space, this venue definitely should be on your list to consider.
PowerHouse
Why is the PowerHouse one of my favorite venues in Columbus Georgia?
If you want a venue that is truly a blank space yet is so beautiful you do not need to do a thing to it? Consider the PowerHouse in downtown Columbus. From the two indoor buildings where you can get ready or have your ceremony, both spaces are beautiful and have perfect lighting. Most couples opt to have their reception outdoors on their green space over looking the Chattahoochee River. They have everything you need on site like tables, chairs and bathrooms, which helps alleviate the worry of renting additional items. One of my favorite aspects of this venue is the the way the sun sets in the evening and the lighting throughout both buildings.

Lake Pines Event Center
Why is Lake Pines Event Center one of my favorite venues in Columbus Georgia?
Just 20 minutes from Columbus, once you arrive at their venue you are immediately notice the trees and greenery that surrounds the venue and feel like you are in a dreamy forest with all the modern amenities. They have a house to get ready in that has a kitchen to keep drinks cold, and plenty of space for a bridal party to be together before the wedding begins. A highlight of this venue is their chapel that has space for 60 people and has beautiful stained glass. There are two smaller getting ready spaces if you want to get ready separately from each other, but still be comfortable.
The main building(the barn) is where most receptions are held but you have the option to have your reception outdoors as well. There are many options at Lake Pines which makes this venue a favorite among couples.
