Shelby Manor is such a beautiful location! Perfect views and beautifully decorated reception area. Stephanie was so accommodating and worked hard to make sure our day was perfect! She was always available to talk about what we needed and allowed us to come up and view the property as many times as we needed before the wedding. The farms owner, Marie, was also so sweet! Anything we needed they offered to help with. Truly blessed to have had our wedding here!

My wife and I had our wedding/reception here in July 2021 and I canât even speak enough of how beautiful this venue is. We wanted to go with a Victorian/antique theme and this was the perfect place to show case that! Stephanie was always so receptive to any questions we had and was helpful the whole time. Our reception was perfect and it truly was a magical and beautiful day. I would recommend this venue 100%!! I wished there was a way to attach photos to show how wonderful it truly is.

This was the perfect location to have our rehearsal dinner and wedding. We checked in Friday afternoon, moved the girls upstairs, had a wonderful rehearsal and dinner, the wedding Saturday, and then collected our things Sunday â itâs rare to find a place so accommodating that allows you the whole weekend to really revel in your celebration. More than that, Marie and Debra went above and beyond to not only make Arcadia Farm feel like home, but also to decorate the entire property and create a magical atmosphere for us. Marie even brought out a couple of horses to âjoin usâ for a rehearsal dinner and reception photo op. Even leading up to the big weekend, every time I emailed Debra with a question, she sent an almost-immediate response. These ladies are amazing, the property is stunning, the horses are majestic, and â largely because of them and their efforts â we had absolutely the most perfect wedding we could ever imagine. Thank you for giving us a wedding we will never forget!! (On a side note, do yourself a favor and walk around the property first thing in the morning â gorgeous!!) We are looking forward to revisiting Debra and Marie for an anniversary trip!

Historic Shelby Manor at Arcadia Farm was the perfect venue for my daughter's wedding. It was everything she hoped it would be. The venue was beautiful and there are several beautiful options for the ceremony, and a wonderful, uniquely decorated facility for the reception. No decorating on our part was needed. Everyone associated with the facility goes above and beyond to ensure the perfect event. The owner even called my daughter before her wedding to confirm the colors so that she could buy mums that would match. Honestly, I can't describe adequately how wonderful it was. I highly recommend Shelby Manor.

Arcadia farm was the perfect venue for my daughterâs wedding. The farm is incredibly beautiful full of old Southern charm. Deborah and Marie helped every wish come true at my daughterâs wedding. Many of the guest said it was the most beautiful wedding venue they had ever seen. At the end of the evening my daughter threw her arms around me and said it was everything I ever dreamed of or wanted. Thank you to Arcadia farms for all of their wisdom in making wedding dreams come true

I had my wedding here a few weeks ago. The venueâs beauty shows for itself, but I cannot say enough wonderful things about Debra, Marie & and their team! They did everything they could to make the weekend perfect for me...Marie was out planting flowers every morning to make sure the grounds were pristine, Debra worked tirelessly to make sure the venue was as we had requested & they even so much as let my elderly dog stay indoors during the wedding so he could be with us on our special day. We rented out the manor house for the night before so our decorating team and family could be on site for the big day. All our guests expressed how beautiful the venue was & how much they enjoyed strolling the grounds. If I had to do it again, Iâd do everything the same here. Thank you for making our day very special!

My daughter's wedding at Historic Shelby Manor was right out of a fairy tale. From the moment Debra was aware of my daughter's desires, she made them happen, from providing our guests accommodations, catering options, and music. The surroundings are incredibly beautiful and serene. Everywhere on the property is ideal for pictures. Our guests were in awe of the grandeur surrounding them. Both Debra & Marie went out of their way to make my daughter's wedding everything she had hoped it would be. Thank you Debra & Marie!!!Sincerely,Doria Florence

We had the absolutely best possible experience at this venue! The communication throughout the process, day of coordination, and all the extras that were included truly made this a special place! We highly recommend booking the rooms for the party as part of the package. The staff and owner were the utmost professionals and truly catered to our every need. I was often left wondering if there were ten more people running around that I didnât notice, because things just got done before I could even bring them up! We had a weather disaster but the smallest of details were attended to without me left to wonder or remember. I canât say enough positive things about this place and canât wait to find another reason to host an event her! Thank you! around that I didnât notice because this
