If you like a natural backdrop and you are looking at indoor and outdoor wedding venues, The Crawford House & Gardens might be for you.the garden beds and back and forth on the pea gravel path while touring, and explain that brides can come down the front steps across the side lawn so that all the guests get a good look, or sneak out the back and around to the hidden driveway to enter the aisle from a completely different direction with the giant oak as her backdrop. We want to give you a moment to soak in the different views and perhaps have a vision that no one else has had. The gardens and lawn change with every season, always giving a different look and feel. Whether it’s a ceremony on the steps, the front landing, in front of the fountain, in the Ceremony Circle, under a tent, or somewhere completely different - the magic can be created by you. We love your visions. And truthfully, I’m still finding my special spots in the garden. I bet you will too.

What is now a natural haven of nearly 2,000 acres began with a deal made from love. Buddy and Joni McClain, who had married in the Chapel, began what was to become a labor of love when they purchased the original 468-acre property. When adjoining acreage became available, they jumped at the chance to expand their domain. The added property included what is now the Guest House, which was built between 1837 and 1841. A descendant of the home once wrote that the property was spared from burning by Gen. Sherman on his infamous march through the South, though he did water his horses in the lake out front, and his men took food and other supplies. Now beautifully renovated, the Guest House offers all the amenities of the home, coupled with the quaint feel of days gone by.
