Vineyards or Lakeside? Can't Pick a Spot for Our Georgia Wedding!
Posted by Pat Bell on May 6, 2025, 9:47 am
Hey everyone! My partner and I are planning a destination wedding and Georgia caught our eye – I mean, those landscapes are just insane! We’re torn between vineyards surrounded by mountains and calm lakeside spots that look straight out of a fairytale. Has anyone here tied the knot in Georgia before? What was the vibe like? Did you have any issues with planning or vendors? We want something super romantic but also chill – nothing too stiff. Also, what’s the best season for good weather without breaking into a sweat? We’d love some tips from real couples who’ve done it there!

Hey, congrats on the upcoming wedding – Georgia is a killer choice! I got married by a lake there last fall and let me tell you, it was absolute magic. The mountains in the background, the quiet vibe, and the golden light during sunset – surreal. Planning was easier than I thought, and the locals were incredibly warm and helpful. What totally sold us was the flexibility in style – you can go elegant or totally rustic-chic. The vineyards had this dreamlike feel, but we wanted more water in the view. Honestly, if you’re after that balance of natural beauty and heartwarming hospitality, a georgia island wedding vibe – even if it's not technically an island – gives you both. We went mid-October, and the weather was crisp but not cold. No sweaty suits, no frizzy hair – just perfect. Highly recommend scouting both lake and vineyard spots, but either way, you won’t regret it. Let me know if you want pics or names of places we loved!
