The Dream package describes five event hours, separate load-in and load-out periods, selected ceremony/reception spaces, a rain location and furniture inventory. A smaller 2025 ceremony package is $3,300 plus the production fee and a $500 refundable deposit for up to 30 people, including the couple. Source details ↓

How to compare your options

A short ceremony package and a full reception-site package solve different problems. Compare the larger package with another venue only after pricing the same meal, bar and rental requirements. A refundable deposit also affects cash available for vendors before the wedding, even though it should not be counted as a permanent cost if all return conditions are met.

Questions for your Atlanta venue

  • What are the current package and production-fee rates?
  • Does the rain location accommodate our complete dinner layout?
  • Which rentals and catering charges are still separate?

Ask for one written total

Have the venue separate rent, required services, food and beverage minimums, service charges, tax and deposits. Confirm which payments reduce the final balance and which are extra. Request the cancellation, weather and overtime terms with the quote.

If coordination is included or required, compare its scope with a wedding coordinator or day-of coordinator before hiring additional help.
