Weddings & Honeymoons · Summerville, Augusta

One estate. One weekend. One all-inclusive wedding.

Ceremony deck, rehearsal dinner in the sunroom, bridesmaids dinner in the Magnolia dining room, fourteen guests sleeping under the same roof. Everything on one invoice.

The wedding weekend at a glance

Four days, one address, nobody in a car.

A hotel wedding splits the weekend across three venues and a shuttle schedule. Here, the rehearsal dinner, the ceremony, the reception, and the beds are all on the same property.

  1. Thursday — Arrival, rehearsal dinner, bridesmaids

    The Escalade collects your party from Augusta Regional. Chef-catered rehearsal dinner in the sunroom, then the bridesmaids move to the Magnolia dining room for their own table and their own night.

  2. Friday — Welcome cocktails, ceremony rehearsal

    Walk the deck and the lawn with your officiant in the afternoon. Welcome cocktails at six under the string lights while the groom’s dinner sets up downstairs.

  3. Saturday — Ceremony and reception

    Seating for forty on the deck or the lawn. Cocktail hour on the putting-green side, chef-catered reception dinner at the long table, and dancing until the fire pit takes over.

  4. Sunday — Farewell brunch

    Brunch in the sunroom for whoever is still standing, then airport drop-offs in the Escalade while the couple stays on in the honeymoon suite.

The all-inclusive wedding package

The honeymoon suite

The wedding night stays in the house.

The Magnolia master is the reason couples stay on after the party. It has its own wing of the main home, its own door onto the upper deck, and a bath built for the morning after.

  • Four-poster king bed with a private sitting area
  • Soaking tub set under a skylight — the tub the champagne photograph gets taken in
  • Separate walk-in shower with room for two
  • Double vanity, dressing space, and the quietest corner of the estate
  • Available on its own for honeymoon-only and anniversary stays

For the whole family

Three suites, three front doors, one roof.

The Wilkshire is three separately-entered homes at one address. That is what lets the couple, the parents, and the wedding party share a weekend without sharing a hallway — and it is why nobody is shuttling between hotels at midnight.

For the couple

The Magnolia

2 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, three decks, a full chef’s kitchen, and the master suite that becomes the honeymoon suite. The main home, and the center of the weekend.

A bedroom in The Azalea apartment with a neatly made queen bed, warm wood floors and a window looking onto the slate patio

For parents and family

The Azalea

A 2-bedroom apartment on the ground floor with its own entrance, eat-in kitchen, and a slate patio. Quiet, level, and easy for grandparents to come and go from.

A bedroom in The Dogwood apartment with a made bed, soft neutral bedding and a bright window above the nightstand

For the wedding party

The Dogwood

A 2-bedroom apartment with its own den and kitchen — the getting-ready room, the late-night room, and the place the groomsmen keep their suits.

Vendors we work with

Bring your planner. Or borrow ours.

We keep a working directory of florists, photographers, bands, officiants, hair and makeup artists, and rental houses across the CSRA — Augusta, Summerville, Aiken, and Evans. Use ours, bring your own, or mix the two. There is no mandated vendor list.

  • Preferred-planner program with priority date holds and familiarization stays
  • Vendor load-in through the lower drive, away from guest arrival
  • High-resolution photo library available for planner pitch decks
  • A direct planner line — not the consumer inquiry queue

Investment

Wedding weekend packages, priced privately.

Three nights, Friday through Sunday, all-inclusive: venue, every meal listed above, staff, cars, and rooms for up to fourteen. Every wedding is bespoke, so every weekend is quoted privately.

The full weekend

All-inclusive wedding

Pricing upon request

Three nights, whole-house exclusivity, up to forty ceremony guests and fourteen overnight. Rehearsal dinner, bridesmaids and groom’s dinners, welcome cocktails, reception, and farewell brunch — chef and staff included.

Small and intimate

Elopement & honeymoon

Pricing upon request

Three nights, whole house, for elopements and honeymoon-only stays. Ceremony on the deck for a handful of witnesses, one chef dinner, and the Magnolia master as the honeymoon suite.

Add on

Extra nights & guest counts

Quoted privately

Thursday arrivals, Sunday-night extensions, ceremony counts above forty, additional chef services, and a second Escalade run are all priced into your proposal rather than added at the end.

Rates are starting points for planning; final pricing depends on guest count, services, and dates. Every wedding is quoted privately by Mario. Georgia sales tax and Richmond County occupancy tax additional. Florals, photography, music, and alcohol are contracted separately. Direct-booking only.
