Where Should I Have My Wedding in Georgia?

According to The Wedding Report, almost 54,000 weddings happened in the state of Georgia during the year 2021, with an average wedding cost of over $23,000. Clearly, lots of people get married in this beautiful state, and we anticipate that number will only grow in the months and years to come. Some of the most popular city destinations for weddings in Georgia include Augusta, Savannah, and - of course! - the capital city of Atlanta. While some couples opt for traditional church weddings, more and more brides and grooms want to get married outdoors. With good weather and the right logistics, outdoor weddings can create a picture-perfect day for family and friends alike.
