Here are some of the key factors they often prioritize:


1. Scenic Views and Natural Beauty:


Northeast Georgia is known for its mountains, lakes, and vineyards, so couples often look for venues that showcase these picturesque landscapes. Venues with mountain backdrops, vineyard settings, or lakeside options are highly appealing for both the ceremony and photo opportunities. At SpringHaus Farm, our couples fall in love with the 20 beautiful acres and pine tree ceremony space. It is a must see!

2. Variety of Venue Types: Couples typically look for options that align with their wedding style. Rustic barns, like SpringHaus Farm, elegant ballrooms, vineyards, historic inns, and outdoor gardens are popular. They may also search for specific venue types like “barn wedding venues,” “vineyard wedding venues,” or “luxury wedding venues.” At SpringHaus Farm, our white oak, heavy timber wedding barn has the country look you are looking for outside with a classic ambiance and timeless inside amenities!

3. Indoor and Outdoor Options: Unpredictable weather can be a concern, so couples often want venues with flexible spaces that offer both indoor and outdoor options for the ceremony and reception. Having a reliable backup plan in case of rain is especially valued.

4. All-Inclusive Packages: Many couples look for venues that offer packages that include catering, decor, coordination, and other services. This can help simplify the planning process and is especially appealing to those who want a more turnkey experience. While SpringHaus Farm doesn't have all inclusive packages, they value the DIY bride, and enjoys sharing the love with other local small businesses like caterers, bakers, DJs etc. It is important to SpringHaus Farm to understand that not everyone loves the same things we do, so we think each couple should be able to choose who does their catering!

5. Guest Capacity: Couples search for venues that can accommodate their guest list comfortably. They may specifically look for intimate venues for small weddings or larger spaces that can handle bigger guest counts. SpringHaus Farm has many different options for your larger (up to 250 guests), or an intimate outdoor wedding for a smaller gathering, SpringHaus Farm has an outdoor patio area, the pine tree ceremony space and beautiful gathering of oak trees under the canopy of pines.

6. On-Site Accommodations: Destination weddings are popular in scenic areas, so couples often want venues with on-site lodging options or nearby accommodations for guests, such as cabins, lodges, or hotels. While SpringHaus Farm doesn't have on site accommodations, their booked couples resource guide has a plethora of information and links to local Air B&Bs, hotels and spaces your family will find perfect for your special event.


7. Unique Features: Couples look for standout elements that can make their day memorable. This might include the unique pine tree ceremony space that SpringHaus Farm offers, or their rustic barn, or nearby hiking trails for a wedding weekend experience.

9. Accessibility and Travel Distance: Many couples want venues that are easy for their guests to reach, so they often consider driving distance from major cities like Athens. Venues with parking options, shuttles, or easy-to-find directions are a plus. SpringHaus Farm is only 15 miles outside of Athens Georgia, and 24 miles from Commerce, Georgia.

10. Reviews and Testimonials: To gauge the experience of past couples, many people look up reviews and testimonials for the venue. Venues with high ratings and positive feedback tend to stand out, particularly those that emphasize quality service and a supportive planning team. Here at SpringHaus Farm we look forward to the upcoming reviews, how we can best serve all of our clients, and how we can learn from any reviews that aren't 5 stars.
