Planning a wedding is one of the most exciting milestones in life, and couples today are looking for ways to make their big day even more special. Enter the full weekend wedding — a growing trend that transforms a single day of festivities into a multi-day experience filled with unforgettable memories.
Here are just a few reasons why a full weekend wedding is worth considering:
- More Time with Loved Ones
One of the most common regrets couples share after their wedding day is not having enough time to connect with everyone. A weekend wedding solves this problem by giving you extra opportunities to mingle with family and friends. From a casual welcome dinner on Friday to a relaxing farewell brunch on Sunday, the extended schedule ensures you can savor meaningful moments with each guest.
At Sage Cottage, located in the serene beauty of North Georgia, we provide the perfect backdrop for these treasured moments. With beautiful grounds and cozy accommodations, your loved ones can come together in a warm and inviting atmosphere.
- A Chance to Unwind
Weddings can be hectic, but a weekend celebration offers a more relaxed pace. Guests can arrive, settle in, and enjoy the surroundings before the main event. Activities like a group hike, lawn games, or simply lounging in nature add to the experience and help everyone feel more connected.
Our venue at Sage Cottage is designed to encourage this type of unwinding. Imagine your guests exploring the lush gardens, enjoying scenic views, or sipping coffee as the sun rises over the North Georgia mountains.
- Memorable Experiences for Everyone
A full weekend wedding lets you create a series of moments that your guests will cherish. Think welcome cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, rehearsal dinners, outdoor movie nights, or even a pre-wedding yoga session. These additional events make the celebration truly unique and offer a chance for your personalities as a couple to shine through.
With Sage Cottage’s flexible event spaces and natural surroundings, you can craft a bespoke itinerary that’s as laid-back or as adventurous as you want.
- A Destination Feel Without the Travel Hassle
A weekend wedding creates the vibe of a destination wedding without requiring extensive travel. Guests can take a mini-vacation to your chosen location and enjoy the getaway feel, all while staying closer to home.
Located a short drive from Atlanta, Sage Cottage offers the charm of a secluded retreat while being easily accessible. It’s the best of both worlds for you and your guests.
- More Value for Your Investment
Let’s face it: weddings are an investment. Why not maximize your budget by extending the celebration? A weekend wedding gives you more time to enjoy the setting, decor, and amenities you’ve thoughtfully selected. It also provides opportunities to repurpose elements like floral arrangements and lighting across multiple events.
At Sage Cottage, we’re here to help you get the most out of your celebration. Our team specializes in creating seamless transitions from one event to the next, ensuring your wedding weekend is as stress-free as it is magical.
