We chose Travelers Rest for our ceremony and reception location. Our ceremony was on the side of the historic home with the gorgeous wrap-around porch as our backdrop. Guests enjoyed the shade of the magnolia tree and the scenery was storybook beautiful! After the ceremony guests were invited to tour the home and enjoy a cocktail hour on the grounds. Then guests headed into the barn for our reception. The air-conditioned barn was simply gorgeous with its high ceilings and fireplace. I chose a rustic chic theme for my decorations but you could really customize the barn as you wish - it is like a blank canvas! My dream of a Southern plantation wedding came true with Travelers Rest! My only concerns were the noise level being right next to the interstate and train tracks but luckily the house helped block the noise and a train did not pass through during our ceremony! Also, it was a challenge only having the property for 12 hours and trying to get everything ready the day of. Other than that, I would highly recommend Travelers Rest to anyone and am so blessed to have gotten married there!
