Lanier Islands is set to become the premier wedding destination in North Georgia with its diverse array of stunning venues, including the highly anticipated Sara D. Williams Chapel and Mendy Williams Bowling Memory Garden, opening in Spring 2025. With breathtaking lake views and a multitude of activity options, Lanier Islands offers couples a complete wedding experience.
"Well, that's actually one of the best parts about weddings at Lanier Islands," says Matthew Bowling, Vice President of Lanier Islands Resorts. "We do have so many places to choose from, we actually have over 10 different venues indoor and outdoors, some of which are award-winning."
Among the most popular outdoor locations are the Venetian Pier, a floating dock perfect for sunset ceremonies, and Peachtree Falls, an almost-island with 360-degree water views and a charming gazebo. "Some of our most favorite venues are our floating dock, the Venetian Pier, right out on the water with a beautiful sunset," Bowling explains. "We have Peachtree Falls, which is almost an island, almost a 360-degree view of the water with an amazing lawn to set beautiful chairs and an awesome gazebo that you get to say 'I do.'"
Peachtree Point, an amphitheater overlooking the lake, provides another picturesque setting for exchanging vows, and The Venetian Pier’s floating dock can comfortably accommodate over 100 guests without causing a huge dent on the pockets. Bowling says, “Not only is it very budget conscious for the venue itself, but really the entire resort. We cover A to Z, and you never have to leave. And so, there's a ton of reasons other than the amazing lake views, also from a budget standpoint, that you would want to get married at Lanier Islands."
Beyond the stunning venues, Lanier Islands offers a complete wedding weekend experience. "The resort becomes your and your family and friends' playground," Bowling states. "Not only do we have amazing wedding venues and great food and beverage options, we have so many different activities to enjoy throughout the wedding weekend, whether it's a first-class golf course or spa, our pool, our pickleball, and of course, boating all over the lake. There are so many things to choose from in between wedding events and to entertain folks here for the entire wedding weekend."
