So beautiful and the most AMAZING staff. Meghan was beyond expectations. They took so much stress out of my daughters big day. Affordable, great area, adorable little town with options for hotels and food. Perfect venue for a small to medium sized wedding.

This venue is a true gem!! đŸŽ„đŸ«¶đŸ»đŸ„‚ Not only was it the perfect venue for a cozy winter wedding of around 100 guests but the staff is perfect too!! Megan Carden was my wedding coordinator and she went above and beyond to make our day the best! She was always available for my many questions and helped everything run so smoothly. My guests loved every part of the day and so did we! Even when small things didn’t go as planned Megan continued to fix each one without us even knowing about it! I never felt stressed on the day of because of her and my trust in her!đŸ«¶đŸ» I highly recommend this venue and will always love it because of these wonderful memories đŸ„č❀

As a Atlanta Wedding Photographer at AtlantaArtisticWeddings and working person who has been working in Historic Cultural Resources for over 20 years I can not say enough nice things about Cowan Historic Mill and the staff there especially Amanda the manager there. She was a consummate professional who made the guests, family, bride and groom feel at home in this wonderful historic venue!

We chose The Cowan Historical Mill for my husband’s 60th birthday. We had about 120 guest. I was floored by how amazing absolutely EVERYONE was at the Venue. Amanda worked out all the details with us prior. The staff on the night of the event were truly AMAZING. Sidney kept everything running smoothly, packed up everything and had it ready for me at the end! The bartenders were amazing! The Venue itself was absolutely perfect! Since it was a nice evening, we had the open bar, food and tables set up inside and everyone enjoyed dinner. Then we headed outside for dancing and we had an additional bar outside. The next day I was flooded with people messaging me about how awesome of a party it was! Needless to say, I HIGHLY recommend this venue!!! Well done!!!

It was the most beautiful scenery. Sydney who was the wedding coordinator was gracious and wonderful. The ambience was just perfect for "I do"or just a wonderful meeting party.

The Cowan Historic Mill should be at the top of everyone’s list if they’re searching for a wedding venue location. My wife and I got married here a few weekends ago and it was everything we could’ve asked for. The aesthetic of the interior and the ceremony space were stunning. With it being an all-in-one venue space (ceremony + reception) and super close to hotels, you couldn’t ask for a more perfect place to begin your life with your groom/bride-to-be. Our amazing wedding coordinator, Amanda Marcy, was spectacular throughout the whole process from our first visit, the sit down talk throughs, and on the day of. She made sure everything ran smoothly and on time and also made sure we had everything we needed. They have a golf cart as well to assist with traveling the couple to a nearby park for additional wedding photos. We simply could not have asked for a more perfect day. Thank you so much Amanda and the Cowan for hosting our big day!

Amanda from Cowan Historic Mill was nothing short of incredible! From the moment we first visited the venue, I fell in love with its charm, but Amanda made the entire experience even more special. She was such a pleasure to work with, bringing warmth, professionalism, and a can-do attitude to every step of the planning process. Her attention to detail and dedication to making our day perfect made all the difference.

What truly set Amanda apart was how adaptable and calm she remained when our wedding day weather took a drastic turn—from a sunny day to a full-blown hurricane. While I was on the verge of stressing out, Amanda stayed completely positive and reassured me that everything would still be beautiful. Her confidence and expertise instantly put me at ease. She and her team seamlessly executed the transition from our ceremony to the reception in what felt like a matter of minutes. Watching them flip the room so efficiently, you’d never know they had to make adjustments on the fly due to the weather!

Even with the sudden changes, everything went off without a hitch, from the dĂ©cor setup to flawlessly coordinating the food service. The entire team at Cowan Historic Mill, under Amanda’s guidance, handled every detail with grace and precision. Amanda’s unwavering support and her ability to keep everything running smoothly truly took so much of the pressure off of us, allowing us to fully enjoy our day.

Our friends and family are still raving about how gorgeous the venue was and how perfectly everything flowed. It was such a joy to see all our guests having an amazing time, and we owe a huge part of that to Amanda and her team. We couldn’t have done it without her!

If you’re looking for a stunning venue and someone who will go above and beyond to make your day flawless, Amanda at Cowan Historic Mill is absolutely the best choice. We’re so grateful to have had her by our side, and we can’t thank her enough for making our day unforgettable!

My Husband and I recently had our wedding reception here on October 4th, 2024. We had the best time there! Amanda and Megan were on point with everything! We could not have asked for better people to help us with our wedding. The guests are still raving about the wedding and how wonderful everything was. We appreciate you both so much, and would recommend everyone to have their wedding here at The Cowan. Thank you guys for making our day so special.

My husband and I had our wedding here back in June (2024). The venue was beautiful! Everything we dreamed of and more. The chandelier in the reception area was an especially romantic touch and dancing all night underneath it along with the brick ascetic was magical. On top of the venue being gorgeous, Sydney, our designated Coordinator we hired through the venue was absolutely amazing! I honestly hadn't given much thought to a coordinator as I am type A and didn't really need a coordinator to help in the months ahead but knew I'd need someone day of so was happy to go along with a coordinator through the venue so that they'd know the place. Despite being a "day of" coordinator, we actually started communicating with Sydney in the weeks before the wedding. But she truly shined starting with the rehearsal the night before. Sydney was lovely but was masterful at taking charge of situations in a calm and respectful way to make sure things ran smoothly and on time. She was such an important part of my wedding day and everything was set up beautifully by the time I arrived to get ready. Sydney was on top of literally everything! She is amazing and looking back I am soooo grateful for her, I didn't stress at all because of her and honestly feel that she is a huge part of making our wedding day so amazing!

INCREDIBLE. I cannot say enough good things about Amanda, she was essential for the day going as perfectly as it did. If you are looking for a place to make your fairy tale wedding come true than you found the right place. The whole staff was amazing and truly cares about making your wedding day what you always hoped it would be.
