Yarborough Mill is a privately-owned historical property in a very unique setting. Once a working gristmill and thriving settlement at the turn of the century, it has been transformed into a beautiful open-air outdoor wedding venue. The Mill, where wheat and corn were ground into flour and cornmeal, is now used as the reception area. Although all of the original Mill equipment is long gone, the high ceilings, hand-hewn beams that span over 30 feet and old handwriting on the walls add to the authenticity and rustic feel.
The Mill was originally owned and built in 1849 by Percy Yarborough, a physician and pharmacist who practiced in nearby Adairsville, and in 1885, he added the Queen Ann style Victorian home. The original farmhouse which dates back to 1849 is now used as the Victorian Bridal Cottage. The barn, also built around that time, now houses The Groom’s Loft for the groom and his groomsmen to get ready, while the old general store is used as a catering prep area.
Yes! We provide vintage wood chairs at the Pavilion for the ceremony and wood farmhouse cross back chairs for seating for the reception (typically held in the Mill). We also have 6ft rectangular banquet tables, 72” and 36” rounds for the reception. We provide custom set-up for each wedding, both indoors and outdoors.
Yarborough Mill is completely surrounded by acres of our farm land and woods. The property consists of 75 acres, so your event will be totally private and protected from street noise, city noise, or passersby. It’s truly a magical space!
If you’re still looking for the perfect venue to have your ceremony and reception, contact us today at https://yarboroughmill.com/contact-us/. We offer venue-only and all-inclusive options, so there’s sure to be a package that fits your wedding day needs.
