Overall I loved my wedding day. However, if I had to plan my wedding all over again, I would NOT have chosen this location. At first glance, I loved all the different scenery: the mansion, the barn, the vineyard, the porch & bar area. Unfortunately, this worked against the wedding: people were all over the place, so whenever the DJ came up for special moments like first dance, cake cutting, etc., not everyone was around, so I had to keep collecting everyone together. Also the location is middle of nowhere. All our guests traveling via plane, stayed at the Marriott by ATL airport. We had to pay for a bus for traveling guests from hotel to venue and back. Lastly, the wedding planner/ owner Vickie made us come up for a monthly meeting but never read her notes. I paid for blue hydrangeas, but while walking down the aisle, they were white hydrangeas. She noted that we should have the ferns in the gazebo placed in the back since that’s where our first dance would be. I agreed and she took note of that. They weren’t ever moved to the back so our crowd and photographer never got good shots of us for our first dance. They couldn’t see us. The food tasting she caters was amazing. The food at the wedding that we tasted was not the same and half as good. Don’t order the green beans. After every meeting, she brought up new things we needed to buy for our wedding, but day of, she never implemented how they would be dispersed. For example, she said we should buy something for guests to waive as we went to our drive-away vehicle, so we did. But she or no one helped disperse them, so I had to last minute at my wedding. She is not a wedding planner or organizer. That day was so much more stressful because of her. She charged us an after fee for wine which I know isn’t true because the guests said they ran out of beer at one point, not wine ever. If I could have rented the venue without Vickie that day, it may have gone way better. But she was strict, inconsistent, not true to her word or notes, and made it a bigger headache. I got married in May 2022 and waited a few years to make my review to let the instant bias wear off. This is still how I feel two years later. Gorgeous venue, awful party planner/ owner/ wouldn’t recommend.

The entire team at Victoria Bell did an absolutely amazing job to help make our special day amazing! With everything happening in the world right now, Vickie, Sondra, and the team worked diligently with us to make sure that our wedding was beautiful, yet safe for us and our loved ones. You can tell with Vickie, Sondra, and the team that they 100% know what they are doing and even adjusted accordingly to the pandemic for us.

Our wedding day was truly magical and full of special moments we will never forget. The weather turned out perfect, even though we were worried it would potentially rain. The service was impeccable and Vickie, Sondra, and the team ensured that everything went according to plan and that our special day was beyond perfect. Thank you to Vickie, Sondra, the VB team, and the vendors for everything and making sure that our wedding day was one that was incredibly special especially during the pandemic and a day we will forever cherish in our hearts!

We had our dream wedding thanks to Vickie and the fabulous staff at Victoria Belle Mansion. They made the whole process as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. Vickie makes sure that every little detail is take care of so that you don't have to worry. She has so much experience in planning weddings which we were very grateful to have.

In addition to the top-notch service, the venue itself is absolutely stunning. As soon as I saw it online, I fell in love, and when I saw it in person, I just knew I had to get married here! The grounds are so well kept, the house is in beautiful condition, and the barn is a dream. Everything came together better than I ever imagined on the big day. We cannot recommend this venue and all of their vendors highly enough! Thank you for everything!!

As the father of the bride, I really had no idea what to expect so I was ‘HOPING’ our highly anticipated wedding would turn out to be the most perfect and special event. IT DID turn out to be just that, PERFECT and an amazing special wedding - thanks to Vickie and her amazing team! I really can’t say enough about the attention to EVERY detail. The team at Victoria Belle Mansion’s is excellent at planning and management of a very important event, an event that will bring together so many family and friends, so it has to be perfect. IT WAS. From day 1, Vickie and her professional team were driven to see that my daughter would have a very special event. The detailed check list, to the amazing venue, to the high quality vendors, to all the many recommendations, it was so well planned and managed, a tribute to the dedication and attention to detail that is so obvious at The Victoria Bell Mansion. If you are looking for that very special place, where the team really loves what they get to do every day, then VBM is your place. We experienced no surprises, no issues that questioned any of our many decisions, the event was so smooth, allowing my wife and I to really enjoy this major event. Instead of Mom and Dad in panic mode, we were instead entertaining guest, helping the wedding parties, and savoring all that VBM has to offer. We had 150 guests, 50 from out of town so we provided transportation to and from VBM to the local hotels. We had a few guests stay just up the street at local B&B, the loved it. And adding the level of anticipaton / expectation, this was wedding the second wedding for our family, this year. Both our son and daughter we married this year, son first and then daughter. So, this was the 2nd time we had all of our family together, only 5 months apart - talk about raising the bar (pun intended). Victoria Belle Mansion is a five-star facility with a five-star team, so you can expect five-star results. Vickie, thank you again for an absolutely wonderful and amazing wedding, and thank you for your dedication to making the bride and groom so happy. In my book, it was a five-star win.

I would recommend Victoria Belle to anyone looking to get married! Twelve years ago I was a junior bridesmaid in a wedding at Victoria Belle and ever since I knew that was where I wanted to get married. The day after I got engaged I scheduled an appointment to tour VB and I was not disappointed! The venue was even better than I remember it and they have added so much to the property since I had last been there. I knew I wanted a very traditional southern wedding and VB encompasses just that! It really was the only place my vision for my wedding could happen! Mrs Vickie was the absolute best wedding planner I could’ve asked for! She was always on top of everything and she made the entire process so easy and enjoyable. I was so relieved going into the wedding knowing everything was taken care of and that nothing was forgotten! Of course it POURED the entire day leading up to the ceremony, but thankfully it didn’t matter because Mrs. Vickie and her entire team had everything dried off and perfect in time for the ceremony. I couldn’t have been happier with how the day turned out and all of the wonderful vendors Mrs. Vickie recommended to us. We had the best experience and I’m so glad we decided to get married at Victoria Belle!!

Victoria Belle was a perfect venue! From the moment we first toured it, I completely fell in love. From having the mansion as the ceremony backdrop, to the decor throughout, to the vintage barn, the physical beauty of the venue is impeccable.

My vision was to have the perfect princess fairytale wedding, and Vickie understood and helped deliver that vision. Vickie and Sondra do a great job throughout the planning process so you feel well-prepared going into your big day. I chose the platinum package so almost everything is included. I highly recommend this route! On my wedding day, I was able to sit back and enjoy it all because I knew that Vickie had everything taken care of. She managed all of the communication with vendors so I just had to tell her what I wanted and she and her team made it happen.

Thank you Victoria Belle for a magical wedding day!

Victoria Belle Mansion gave us a wonderful wedding! A lot of the stress with wedding planning such as catering, florist, venue preparation, wedding cake were covered under the Platinum Package. This took stress off scheduling follow-ups with each individual vendor which was covered by the wedding planner, Vickie, at Victoria Belle. Note that photography, videography (if you want this), some floral arrangements, and some other smaller things were not included so be sure to make notes/reminders.
The day of the wedding was beautiful! Vickie was a true professional! She made sure we drank water and we definitely needed that! She even ironed my now husband suite! She stuck to the schedule and made sure everything ran smoothly! She was kind and thoughtful and we are so happy we chose her and her beautiful venue. The day was memorable and Victoria Belle gave us an amazing wedding day! A huge thank you to Vicki, her staff, and wonderful venue!

I stumbled upon Victoria Belle after googling venues for a couple of days; once I found VB, I knew this was where I wanted to have my special day. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, and everyone working there is so sweet and caring. Mrs. Vickie and her team are so welcoming and immediately begin to help you with whatever you may need in order to achieve your wedding vision. One of my favorite things about my wedding experience here was how all of your ideas and wants are carefully documented and discussed, so everything would work out smoothly on the wedding day. Mrs. Vickie is very organized and detail-oriented; I was thankful to have her guidance along the way. Mrs. Vickie knew my concerns of wedding planning while going through nursing school, but I had complete faith in her. I mean it when I say she did not let me down. Everything was exactly as I wanted it, and I wouldn't change a thing. I strongly recommend Victoria Belle if you want to have an amazing and memorable wedding day. If you decide on Victoria Belle, you know you're going to be taken care of and have the wedding of your dreams!
