Why You'll Love This Place

A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
  • This hidden middle-Georgia gem features a lush, park-like setting, flexible event options both indoors and out, and a lovely, thoughtful staff dedicated to making each couple’s unique vision a reality.
  • Hold your ceremony under the sprawling oaks or in the quaint gazebo, followed by a reception in the handsome, well-appointed banquet room, which boasts a large wooden dance floor, candelabra chandeliers, and French doors that open to an airy patio.
  • Their generous full-wedding package includes access to the venue starting on Friday afternoon, allowing you ample time for setup. You also have the option to wed at the sweet vintage chapel in Forest Hill Park (just five minutes away), then follow with a reception at Cherokee Pines.

COUPLES ARE ASKING: We've got answers

What's included when we book Cherokee Pines, and what will we still need to pay for separately?

At Cherokee Pines in Perry, the $3,800 Wedding Package gives you the whole venue: the formal banquet room, the Lions Legacy Room, the outdoor area, the café, the card room, the bar, a commercial kitchen and dressing rooms. Tables, chairs and floor-length tablecloths are included as available, and you keep the tablecloths. You'll pay separately for your caterer and bar, table and chair setup and breakdown ($100 inside, $100 outside), and a $200 security deposit that comes back after cleanup.

Can we have both our ceremony and reception at Cherokee Pines, or will guests need to travel between them?

Yes, you can do both at Cherokee Pines. You can marry under the large oak trees or in front of the gazebo, and the venue's 2 banquet rooms can host either a ceremony or a reception. If you'd love a chapel, the $4,000 Park-Club Bundle pairs a ceremony at the Forest Hill Park chapel with a reception at Cherokee Pines, about a 5-minute drive away.

If we already have vendors we love, can we bring them to Cherokee Pines or do we have to use yours?

Cherokee Pines lets you bring your own caterer and your own alcohol. Every banquet room rental includes a small caterer's kitchen with a stove, oven, refrigerator and microwave, and the Wedding Package includes the commercial kitchen and bar. If you book another package and your caterer needs commercial-grade appliances, the commercial kitchen is a $175 add-on.

What should we realistically expect to spend on a wedding at Cherokee Pines, and is there a minimum?

At Cherokee Pines in Perry, the full Wedding Package is $3,800, or $3,000 if you leave out the Lions Legacy Room, and it covers both Friday and Saturday. The Park-Club Bundle, which adds the Forest Hill Park chapel, is $4,000, or $3,200 without the Legacy Room. Discounts can lower that: 25% off Monday–Thursday, 20% off full-day packages in January and February, 10% off full-day packages in August, 10% off Sundays after 2:30pm, and 10% off for military and first responders, though they can't be combined. Add $100 each for indoor and outdoor table setup, and plan for your own catering and bar. A $200 refundable deposit is due at booking ($400 for the bundle).

How long do we get at Cherokee Pines, and when does the music have to stop?

With the Wedding Package at Cherokee Pines, you get Friday from 10am to 10pm for setup and your rehearsal, then Saturday from 8am to 11pm for your wedding. The latest any rental can end is midnight, and extra hours are $110 each on full- and half-day packages. Amplified music is allowed indoors and outdoors, with some restrictions.

If it rains on our wedding day at Cherokee Pines, what would the backup ceremony actually look like?

Cherokee Pines in Perry has a rain plan built in: its 2 banquet rooms can host a ceremony or a reception, so your day is covered rain or shine. The Lions Legacy Room seats 80–110 banquet style, or 90 comfortably with a dance floor, and the formal banquet room seats 70–95, or 72 with a dance floor. Your outdoor options are the large oak trees and the gazebo, and outdoor table and chair setup ($100) is weather permitting. Because the Wedding Package covers the whole venue, both banquet rooms are part of your rental.

What makes Cherokee Pines different from the other venues near it?

Cherokee Pines gives you two days for one price: the $3,800 Wedding Package covers Friday 10am–10pm for setup and rehearsal plus Saturday 8am–11pm. You can bring your own caterer and alcohol, and the whole venue is yours, with 2 banquet rooms, an outdoor area under large oaks with a gazebo, a café, a bar and dressing rooms. Weekday dates are 25% off, and January and February dates are 20% off full-day packages. If you want a chapel, the Park-Club Bundle adds the Forest Hill Park chapel nearby.

Does Cherokee Pines work for a small wedding or an elopement, and what would that look like?

Yes, Cherokee Pines handles weddings as small as 3 people. Monday–Thursday, the $850 Elopement Package covers up to 10 guests with a coordinator, an officiant, 1 hour of photography and 1.5 hours at the venue. The $1,150 Ceremony Package fits up to 30 guests with 1.5 hours of photography, and the $1,250 Ceremony & Toast Package adds a table for cake cutting and a toast. Every option lets you choose an indoor or outdoor ceremony.
