Vecoma at the Yellow River

If you are looking for a wedding venue that is both beautiful and affordable, Vecoma at the Yellow River is definitely that spot. Vecoma's staff is by far the best in the Atlanta area. Owners Caroline and Judith are both accommodating and easy to work with. They were more than happy to work with any requests that I had and were very good about responding to last minute requests.Vecoma made my wedding dreams come true, delivering more than imagined! Both my husband and I are thrilled that we decided to begin the rest of our lives at Vecoma.Thank You Vecoma.Kesha Briley Young

My daughter Ashley got married on Oct. 23, 2011, and it was WONDERFUL. We couldn't have been more pleased. To start off the cake and flowers were late (almost had a breakdown!) and Caroline was right there assuring me that everything would be perfect. They got right in full swing to take care of things if they didn't show. Everything arrived and the day couldn't have been any better. The whole staff was there to help with every little detail and so polite. You couldn't find a place as great as Vecoma. I strongly urge people to use them. I have already told all my friends about it. The guests were very pleased also. The food was delicious and the way it was presented was beautiful. We had the DJ from Vecoma (Kirk) and we had a great time dancing. We also used Caroline for the photos and we can't wait to see them. If I could give them a 10 I would. I just can't say enough great things about them.

Vecoma was the best place to get married. It is beautiful. The people are so nice and helpful. I did not have to worry about anything. They took care of every detail that I did not even think of. Everything ran so smoothly. The food was wonderful. The dj was the best that works with Vecoma. Their photographer/owner was amazing. She was so nice and the pictures turned out better than I would have imagined. I loved Vecoma and so did all of my guest. I would recommend having a wedding here.

We had only the reception here, not the ceremony. The reception was absolutely wonderfuly...amazing since they only had about 1.5 hours of turn-around time between the afternoon event and our reception. The venue is lovely, the food is great, the bartenders were awesome....everything was set up just like we wanted it to be when we got there that night. I would absolutely recommend Vecoma to anyone looking for a beautiful spot for a wedding reception. I should say that I was not the bride, but the bride's mother....

Vecoma was the best decision I made to have my ceremony and reception. The Vecoma crew was on point and took care of all my request and needs. Caroline and Nancy are the best! The food, the staff and the service was AWESOME!! I couldn't ask for anything else...I love this place...

It was really nice working with the Vacoma crew, my wedding was nice and me and wife love the job well done! Vacoma we love y'all

My best friend got married here, and I was very uptight going into the whole process. I wanted so badly for everything to be perfect. Her family was flying in from the other side of the country, it was her time to shine as the beautiful bride I knew she would be, and she had put the entire planning process solely on her own shoulders. She was frazzled, and I was worried.But as soon as we got there, we were taken care of. The rehearsal process was easy, but detailed. We all knew where we needed to be and when. We felt relaxed going into the big day, and things were absolutely beautiful.They take care of the ins and outs of your wedding with all your special touches. The menu was absolutely delicious, and we felt at home with the banquet hall all to ourselves. The wedding was in mid-July, outside, and the brief outdoor ceremony was met with a long, fun, air conditioned dance party for hours afterwards!As a bridesmaid, the photography process wasn't drawn out or stressful. A fun break from all the primping and preparation! Caroline actually allowed us bridesmaids (all design students) to art direct some of the shots ourselves! The entire day's photography came out perfect, and Elizabeth couldn't have been happier.Her family was pleased, all the visitors had a great time, and even after the sendoff, we were all very impressed by the lovely work done by the Vecoma family. You absolutely must see the venue to understand how lovely and secluded it is. Perfect!

The staff was very friendly and helpful, the food was delicious and everything looked beautiful. We were so pleased and would highly recommend the Vecoma for a wedding reception.

Vecoma excelled in every way and met our high expectations of the perfect wedding ceremony and reception for our son and daughter-in-law. From our initial meeting through the planning process and final goodbyes the Staff were caring, alert, and open to our family making sure that June 2, 2011 was wonderful and memory filled. The Ceremony site just in front of the Yellow River was gorgeous and tranquil from the sound of rolling water over bedrocks to the rabbit strolling across the lawn. The Reception was equally amazing. The menu had many sumptuous choices, tasted perfect and was displayed with pride. Use Vecoma’s vender list! Vecoma’s DJ Kirk not only streamlined the handling of the planned activities, read our guests and provided fun for all, but also produced the DVD that truly captured the day to be enjoyed for years to come. The flowers (Katrina) were fresh, beautiful, and everything we asked for! Vecoma’s Caroline was our photographer who saw it all and provided a work of art not only with the final album but all the pictures which let us see what we didn’t see. We also used the Limo service recommended by Vecoma who arrived on time and helped bring to an end a totally wonderful day and experience. Check Vecoma out! We are sure you won’t be disappointed!

My daughter's wedding and reception was absolutely beautiful! We couldn't have asked for more. The staff went out of their way with any and all request that we had the day of the wedding. We had looked at all of the beautiful mansions in the area but decided for the money to go with Vecoma. I don't think that we could have picked a more perfect spot. Everything flowed so smoothly. It was nice with the hot weather that some of our elderly guest were able to watch the ceremony up on the deck without having to sit in the sun and heat. Everything was excellent. Caroline did an excellent job with the photography. She knew just the right light and spot for pictures. Nancy kept the ceremony and reception flowing and on time. We were very pleased with the whole experience.

Vecoma definitely deserves a 5 out of 5 rating. They helped us every step of the way. The funny thing is, they were not even on my list of venues at first. I went to another location near them and was treated badly so I gave them a call and they saw me the same day! What a difference it was from my first few places. The staff was attentive and helpful from the start. When my husband and I first went to Vecoma it was pouring down rain. And we still fell in love with it. Honestly though if it wasn't for the people there I would have worried a lot more. Caroline in particular made an impression on us; she was so nice and helpful and never rushed us or made us feel like we were just another client. As the big day closed in, I did start getting nervous and called them like a million times. But they were always helpful and reassuring. On the big day, everything went smoothly. I was running late and freaking out but they didn't rush me at all. The pictures turned out amazing! Caroline did a wonderful job on them and I definitely recommend having her as your photographer. I would recommend them to anyone. You will NOT be disappointed!!-Rachel and Steven MartinelliMay 20, 2011

My husband and I were married at Vecoma at the Yellow River on May 8, 2011. The venue was the perfect site for our wedding. Who knew this gem was hidden away in Snellville, GA?! If you and your groom love a beautiful outdoor venue, then Vecoma should truly be on your list to visit. As soon as you turn onto Vecoma Lane, you are transported to the north Georgia mountains. The river meandering by behind the arbor, the lush tree line surrounding the wedding site made it secluded, peaceful and serene. The Vecoma staff members were wonderful to work with. The ladies kept each other well informed about every detail of our wedding. They were very professional and sincerely wanted us and our guests to have a great time. One of the best decisions we made was to have a photo booth for our guests to use while we were taking formal pictures. Our guests dressed in fun costumes before having their picture taken. The photographer developed the photos, created a wedding album, had the guests sign the album plus provided individual copies to the guests - this was done before the reception ended! That was a huge hit!I highly recommend Vecoma! The prices were excellent. The food was really good. The buffet was beautifully displayed; the staff attentive. We really enjoyed the day.

Vecoma truly made my wedding day everything you would want it to be and then some. The venue is just breathtaking. From the ceremony site set right on the Yellow River to the building and deck for the recpetion. They were very flexible in working with me and understanding of my many situation that happen to arise throughout my wedding planning process. They had everything perfect and stress-free on the day of my wedding. I had every Brides worst nightmare...RAIN on my wedding day! Vecoma worked with me literally to the minute in making sure my wedding was everything I wanted and we ended up still being able to hold my ceremony outside. I could not have asked for a better venue and staff. I would highly recommend Vecoma to fellow Brides!!!

Everything turned out so beautiful. The staff at Vecoma is great. We had such a wonderful day...I would recommend Vecoma to anyone.

Wonderful place for a wedding! I wanted a very low stress wedding, and Vecoma did a great job reducing all of the stresses. They were so organized and efficient. It was so nice that we were able to pick out the venue, food, and photographer in one place! They even helped us by recommending places to find cakes, flowers and an officiant. The grounds are beautiful and Caroline does a wonderful job with the pictures! We were so happy with everything!

Vecoma was such an amazingly gorgeous setting. Their outdoor ceremony venue is just gorgeous and the reception hall is wonderful. It comes already decorated with draped cloth and white lights on the inside and candles in the beautiful fireplace. The service was great and everything went off without a hitch. If you are looking for an affordable venue close to the city with an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception all in one locale, this is the place for you. Its super easy to get to for guests as well as its right off of highway 78. Our wedding night was so amazing and everyone raved about how beautiful the setting was and how good the food was as well.

I loved everything! Everyone made my night so special! Especially Caroline

Vecoma at the Yellow River was a wonderful place for my daughter's wedding! They made everything so easy.

My daughter wedding ceremony and reception was absolutely outstanding. I was so pleased with everything that night. The Vecoma staff went above and beyond to make it a great wedding. My daughter and her husband were very pleased. Thanks to Caroline for all she did and for the pictures that she took. I will be referring people to you for future events.Thanks, Suzan

The staff at Vecoma were very helpful. They walked us through each detail step by step and made sure my guest and wedding party were comfortable. While we took pictures after the ceremony, the staff brought us cocktails and appetizers. The venue is stunning, and the food was amazing. My guest still talk about the food today! The staff seemed to know the wedding business very well, they made sure they had all grounds covered. When we needed an additional photographer for the groomsmen, they offered their services and did an excellent job. I highly recommend this venue to brides to be. When you have Vecoma as your venue, everything is stress and worry free.
