The Swan House: More Than Just a Pretty Face
The star of the show here is undoubtedly the Swan House. This Gilded Age mansion is like something out of a fairytale. But let’s be real, fairytales come with a hefty price tag. The base rental fee for a Saturday wedding is a cool $12,500, plus a beverage minimum of $5,500. And that’s just the beginning.
Tip: Reading carefully reduces re-reading.
What Does That Actually Mean?
Now, you're probably wondering, "Okay, smart guy, but what does that actually mean for my wallet?" Well, buckle up. Most couples end up spending anywhere from $400 to $1,000 per guest. So, if you're inviting 100 people, you're looking at a total cost of $40,000 to $100,000. And that's before you factor in the dress, the suit, the rings, the honeymoon, and all those other little extras that add up faster than you can say "I do."
QuickTip: Scroll back if you lose track.
Is It Worth It?
The million-dollar question (or should I say, hundred-thousand-dollar question?) is whether or not it's worth it. Well, that's entirely up to you. If you're dreaming of a Gatsby-esque affair and money is no object, then go for it! But if you're on a tighter budget, there are plenty of other beautiful venues in Atlanta that won't break the bank.
QuickTip: Repetition signals what matters most.
